Chapter 31: The City of Man and the Lion Open Their Mouths

Nowadays, an ordinary family needs to spend only two to three taels of silver a year, and these two hundred taels of silver are scattered.

"I'm going to hear this all over the city at noon, and if you do it well, there's a silver bounty for the evening." You Xi pretended to be mysterious, turned around and left.

Those who took the money and didn't want to do anything, when they heard that there was a reward, they were all ready to move.

In the end, they are barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes, even if the Sixth Highness is a nobleman, they are even living and dying in a snowstorm, and only after getting the reward can they survive for a few more days.

You Xi came out of the north of the city, away from the beggars, and changed out of the clothes and black gauze hats that he had just worn to meet the beggars in a ruined temple.

Red Bean was on the side to help her keep an eye on her, waiting for Youxi to dress up again.

You Xi put on Su Ri's clothes back before he smiled at Hongdou and said, "Let the Sixth Highness go to the heavens and the earth to grab the pushers, Hongdou, let's go." ”

Red Bean had a shallow smile on her face, "Yes, girl." ”

From now on, her red beans will also open a new chapter in her life like the girl.

When the master and servant had finished their work, they went all the way to the east of the city.

It was already three quarters of the hour, and the streets were sparsely populated by the wind and snow, but there were still people who were trying to make a living.

You Xi had just finished doing bad things, and he was only in a low-key hurry.

Hongdou followed Youxi all the way, and she was also quiet, until she suddenly stopped when she reached the front of the market.

You Xi was curious, and followed the red bean to set his eyes on the people not far away.

Nowadays, people are rudely divided into nobles, good citizens, and untouchables, and the ruling class stabilizes the social class with the children born of nobles as nobles and the children of untouchables as untouchables.

In order to regulate this industry and facilitate the collection of taxes, the government has drawn an area in various places for Yazi to sell, which is the human market, such as the vegetable market, the fish market, the cattle market, and the horse market.

In the direction that Hongdou looked, about thirty elderly men and women were chained together with hemp rope and knelt in the snow.

The wind and snow fell on them, and the people who were already thinly dressed were shivering with the cold.

"Girl, that's my Lao Tzu and Lao Tzu Niang." Red beans have red eyes.

In the past, the living environment of Youxi's mother and daughter took a sharp turn for the worse, and most of the servants who had always been the only one to look forward to their horses were looking for another master, and tried their best to take their deeds from Youxi's mother and daughter.

Now that the You family has experienced being raided and being exonerated as a civilian, none of the servants who were originally serving in the house can be left, and they are pulled by the government to the market to buy and sell.

People who often have the need to buy people want mostly seven or eight-year-old children, such as Hongdou's parents, who are nearly middle-aged, unless they are the kind of people who urgently need to employ people, they will buy one or two for emergencies, and most of the others are not cared for.

It is no exaggeration to say that when these people reach middle age, once the master family they follow is destroyed, they will only have the road of death.

For example, now, the buyer's Yazi is not without young boys, young girls, and immature children to sell, but these people are easy to sell, and there is no need to let them out to suffer, as for this group of people who are nearly middle-aged, in the eyes of Yazi, they can only be a signal that my family has opened the door to do business today, if there is a temporary can't hold on and is frozen to death, Yazi only needs to take a time to go to the government to report, and the household registration will be eliminated, and it will be fine.

You Xi rummaged through his bag and found seven hundred and twenty-three yuan, "I heard that there is no guarantor here to bring it, and the teeth will open their mouths, and now I only have so much money on me, I hope it is enough." ”

You Xi originally had one or two dollars of silver on him, but yesterday he spent three hundred and seventy-five yuan to see the red bean's injury, and he just used two yuan to buy four buns for two people's breakfast, so there was only so much left.

Hongdou was delighted, "Thank you, girl, when my old son and mother get out of trouble, I will ask them to write you an IOU." ”

Hongdou is a clean girl, her parents abandoned Youxi's mother and daughter in danger, and now Youxi is willing to save them in her face, but she will never use them.

"You and I don't need to say this, I just hope that your parents will accept your affection." Swimming in the brook murmuring.

Back then, Hongdou's parents and family were under the hands of Mrs. You San, but when Hongdou had an accident, none of Hongdou's family thought about saving Hongdou, but the family was complaining about Hongdou afterwards, making their lives under Mrs. You San sad.

When You Xi and Hongdou entered the human market, some people who were tied up looked at them expectantly.

You Xi tried not to look at these people, the existence of these people was created by the times, unless she was the reincarnation of the gods, and she could turn over and root the bright and brilliant country she once lived in, the people-oriented idea into everyone's minds, otherwise she couldn't save them at all.

Yazi, who was selling red beans, was roasting in the room, and when he heard someone shouting outside, he strode out and said with a smile, "The villain greets the two distinguished guests, and invites the two distinguished guests to sit inside." ”

You Xi didn't speak, Hongdou waved his hand and refused, "No, boss, how do these people sell at your door?" ”

"Distinguished guests have taken a fancy to these old goods? There are young and strong people in the house, so why don't you go into the house and have a look. "Most of the buyers and sellers want to sell their goods as soon as possible, and the same is true for these sellers.

"No need, the boss quickly tell these people, what is the price."

"These people...... They are all old goods, and they are not worth much, but they are all stewards and leading maids in the Gaomen Mansion in the past, and some of them are experienced people, and for the sake of this benefit, the minimum should not be less than five hundred yuan each. "The tooth is like a reed.

Hongdou sighed in his heart, they only had more than 700 yuan, not enough to buy two people.

Red Bean looked helplessly at Youxi.

You Xi said secretly, Hongdou really cares about it, she was a young and tender little girl was sold to the building, and the greedy servant only asked the bustard mother for eight hundred yuan, and now the string of middle-aged people in Yazi's hands is that they really have many benefits, but age is a big injury, how can it be used for five hundred dollars per person.

"Boss, although we are in urgent need, but it is not a big wrong, if you are so insincere at the beginning, we will change to do business, red beans we go, I don't believe that other families do not have our favorite." After You Xi finished speaking with a cold face, he pulled the red beans and left.

The two of them had their backs to Yazi, and You Xi whispered one, two, three.

Just when he counted the third sound, You Xi thought that Yazi would call out to them, and the parents of the red beans who didn't want to faint kneeling in the snow recognized them, one called the big girl, and the other shouted "Kiss your daughter and save your parents", which completely broke You Xi's abacus.
