In Quanzhou City, in Li Hao's rented residence.

The old housekeeper Ding Fu hurriedly walked to the main hall of the middle courtyard.

Li Hao sat in the main hall, holding a bowl of frozen lotus seed candy in his hand and drinking it slowly. The weather was so hot that he had already opened the refrigerator and drank some frozen drinks from time to time to relieve the heat.

Although he brought two sets of home solar power generation systems, and the electricity was quite abundant, it was not enough to enjoy air conditioning in the Northern Song Dynasty. The rooms here are too big, and the gaps between the doors and windows are too large, and there are too many gaps between the roof and the walls, so there is not enough cold air to leak out. It would be nice to have a refrigerator, but the air conditioner was not thought of for the time being.

Ding Fu walked into the hall and reported to Li Hao: "Young Master, the renovation of the photo studio is in full swing, and it is estimated that it will be completed in seven or eight days." In addition, according to your instructions, young master, four handmaidens have been selected for you. ”

"Four? Didn't I say you could just buy two handmaidens? ”

"The old slave prepares two more for the young master to choose, you choose two of them, and send the other two back. These four people were all cultivated by Jin Yutang at a high price, and they have received strict training since childhood. All of them are literate and hyphenated, coarse at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, good at singing, dancing and singing, and know etiquette and rules. They were bought and raised by Jin Yutang since childhood, and they were specially sold to wealthy families as handmaidens or concubines, and they were all perfect. ”

"Tell them to come in and have a look." Li Hao has officially negotiated with the Liang family, and he will be able to formally sign a contract in a few days to officially buy the Liang family's field and residence in Quanzhou. The conditions have been negotiated between the two parties, the down payment of 20,000 yuan, and the balance will be paid off within two years.

Qingxiwan Liang Mansion, no, it should be called Qingxiwan Li Mansion now, the garden of Li Mansion is too big, and Li Hao does not let his subordinates enter the garden, after all, there are too many people to affect the cultivation of the Force, so if the subordinates are in a hurry, they may not be able to hear it if they are in a hurry.

Li Haocai plans to buy two personal maids and let them live in the garden, so that they can usually pass on a message. And the place where I live is big, someone has to clean it up. Of course, although Li Hao was born in a poor family, he is also a normal person, not a saint, and who doesn't want to enjoy the taste of a beautiful maid warming the bed if he has the conditions?

Brother also began to degenerate, all of them were poisoned by this social environment, and it was legal, reasonable, and reasonable to buy a handmaid in the Northern Song Dynasty, isn't this tempting to degenerate? Brother is a promising young man in the 21st century, and he can't resist this temptation. O evil feudal society!

Led by the servants, the four maidens had already entered the hall.

Beauty, all four are top beauties. Although it is slightly inferior to Mo Shiyun's level of disaster to the country and the people, she is also a rare beauty. Perhaps in terms of appearance alone, they and Mo Shiyun are Chunlan and Qiuju, but they have a unique temperament less than Mo Shiyun.

It's a pity that they are a little younger, and their bodies have not fully grown.

This is again due to the difference in the concepts of Li Hao and the Northern Song Dynasty. In the Northern Song Dynasty, a woman was considered to be the best age for marriage at the age of sixteen, and before she was married at the age of eighteen, her parents were very anxious, and after the age of twenty, she was considered an old girl who could not marry. In the words of the main world, the Song people felt that those who were over twenty years old were leftovers.

From the perspective of the Northern Song Dynasty, these girls are the most suitable age, but Li Hao feels that they are too young.

These girls all looked at Li Hao expectantly, and they all hoped to be picked. They have been trained as servant girls since they were children, and they have long accepted their fate, the only difference is which master bought them, and many of the sisters they trained together were bought by older men. In contrast, Li Hao seems to be a good host.

Li Hao had a big headache, but these four girls were all beautiful, and it was not easy to pick two of them, he sighed: "Lao Ding, Lao Ding, you are helping me lose." ”

"Huh?" Ding Fu said, "The old slave was frightened and didn't understand what the young master meant. ”

"You brought these four back so beautiful, how can I choose? Let's buy all four. ”

"This ...... It's all old slaves who don't think it through. Ding Fu was speechless for a while.

Li Hao waved his hand and said: "Forget it, what are you afraid of the loser, have you lost my family property?" ”

"That's, that's, with the old slave's vision, if you want to lose 10,000 yuan, you have to rack your brains, and you can't think of how to spend this huge amount of wealth, and the young master earns 10,000 yuan without much effort, I want to help the young master lose, and the way is still far away."

"Uh, Lao Ding, I've grown a lot in kung fu."

"That's all after following the young master for a long time, and my brain is a little more flexible than before."

Li Hao asked the four maids to introduce themselves, the youngest of the four maids was only fourteen years old, and the oldest was only sixteen years old.

After listening to it, Li Hao said: "Your name is given by Jin Yutang, with the surname of a stage name, it is too glamorous, after entering my Li Mansion, it is not suitable to use the old name." Well...... In this way, there are just four of you, and you are named after the four gentlemen in the flower of Meilan bamboo chrysanthemum. To put it simply, in order of age, they are called Xiaomei, Xiaolan, Xiaozhu, and Xiaoju. ”

After a pause, Li Hao said again: "Go back to Jinyutang to clean up, and move over in the afternoon." Lao Ding, arrange a carriage to pick them up, and send some long-term workers to help them carry things. ”

Ding Fu has arranged for people to pick them up, and there are many long-term workers in the Li Mansion to do this kind of trivial matter.

Li Hao watched them leave and sighed, "Jin Yutang cultivates all this kind of beauties? is really discerning, and willing to spend money. ”

Ding Fu said with a smile: "It is impossible for all of them to be this kind of maidservant, these four are the best in Jinyutang." The reputation of the Rare Treasure Pavilion has long spread throughout Quanzhou, and when Jin Yutang heard that the young master wanted to buy a maidservant, he would naturally give the best and the most expensive one. ”

"Oh? It seems that I am stupid and have a lot of money in their eyes. ”

Ding Fuwan said: "Everyone knows that there is a lot of money, but who would think that the young master is stupid? Those who think this way are the real fools. ”

After hesitating for a moment, Ding Fu's face was slightly solemn and said: "Young master, I have a distant relative who came back from Bianliang, and he was a criminal master in Bianliang before. He heard about the situation of the young master, and he told me that the young master had just returned from overseas, and his foundation was unstable, but he had suddenly amassed a huge amount of wealth, and it was easy to ...... This one...... Beware of officials coveting. ”

Li Hao was drinking a drink, and when he heard this, he suddenly stopped, holding the cup and not moving, and his originally smiling face became solemn. After coming to the Northern Song Dynasty, he was indeed too high-profile, who in Quanzhou didn't know that he was rich? As soon as the owner of this golden jade hall heard that he was going to buy a maidservant, he immediately sent the best one.

This is not the kind of rule of law society in the main world, and the officials here have all kinds of privileges, breaking the county order, destroying the door and ordering Yin, this is not a joke.

The meaning of the sentence master is very clear, other rich people are inextricably linked with officials and have common interests, but he has just come to Quanzhou, he has not encircled officials, has not made friends with powerful classes, and has not enough strength to protect his property, which is "unstable foundation".

The reason is very simple: a three-year-old child swaggering on the street with ten yuan in his hand, and he was robbed very easily; A strong man with strong martial arts has ten pieces of money, and no one dares to make up his mind. Of course, if that kid only has ten cents in his hand, everyone won't be tempted. Wealth must have the corresponding strength to protect it. If you have a huge amount of property without the corresponding power, you are a dish in the eyes of others, and others will always wonder how to eat you.

Li Hao's thinking form is the main world, and this is not a problem in the rule of law society in the main world, at least no one will come to snatch it. But in the Northern Song Dynasty world, where the government is supreme, in the environment of breaking the county order, there will be great risks for themselves.

Li Hao put down the cup, got up and patted Ding Fu on the shoulder: "Lao Ding, thanks to your reminder, I will add this to the year-end bonus." By the way, where is that master doing things now? I would like to treat him to a meal and thank him for his advice. ”

has been in the Northern Song Dynasty for a period of time, Li Hao feels that what is most lacking here is talent, and if the criminal master can be recruited, it will be helpful to his development in the Northern Song Dynasty. It's worth digging up a few times the salary of this kind of person, and he is not short of money anyway.

Ding Fu didn't expect that Li Hao would personally invite the master to dinner, and he replied: "He just came back from Bianliang and returned to his hometown in the countryside, and he will return to Quanzhou in a few days." He is now thinking about some errand in Quanzhou, and he is too old to leave his hometown. ”

"Great, as soon as he returns to Quanzhou, you will take my worship sticker to invite him. Remember: be formal, be grand. Li Hao said solemnly.

Ding Fu hurriedly agreed, he knew that Li Hao had been recruiting talents, and had cooperated with Cui Ji Yaxing for a long time to find elites, whether it was a bookkeeper, a shopkeeper, or a shop man, as long as he was really talented, Li Hao would recruit with a high salary. Even if there is no position for the time being, he will be recruited first, Ding Fu does not understand this kind of "talent reserve" and feels that it is a waste.

But as long as it is ordered by Li Hao, no matter whether he understands it or not, Ding Fu will faithfully implement it.
