The arm couldn't twist the thigh, and the owner of the rice shop added an extra tael of silver like a charity after learning that the little girl was still a chick, and the farmer left with his son in his arms.

The little girl stared blankly at the back of her father's departure, and the immature children's voices of her father and younger brother kept echoing in her ears.

"Selling you can save your brother's life! After raising you for so many years, it's time for you to repay......"

"Daddy, what is a yellow flower girl?"

I didn't notice at all that the owner of the rice shop stretched out the salty pig hand.

Suddenly, the boss of the rice shop only felt that he had not yet touched the hand on the little girl's body, as if he was caught by iron tongs, and the pain made him break out in a cold sweat, and the young man's voice in his ear sounded like thunder: "According to the law of Great Qi, buying and selling human beings is a capital crime!" ”

Seeing clearly that the person who did it was He Hong, who took the initiative to greet him just now, he instantly sank his face and said angrily: "What do you want to do?" You, an outsider, dare to point fingers at our Jiangnan capital! ”

He turned his head again and said to the officers and soldiers: "Are you all dead?" This person disrupts order and hinders the court's disaster relief, so don't hurry up and take it down! ”

The onlookers couldn't hold back any longer, and when they saw that some bold people had started, they also supported He Hong, and they always held a glimmer of hope in their hearts: this person from Kyoto might really change the fate of the little girl.

"Little brother, the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, it is safer to report this kind of thing to the government, so that you can't save this girl, and you will also take it yourself." An old man kindly reminded.

"Old man, you are old, don't make up your mind, don't you see that this officer and soldier and the owner of the rice shop are in the same group, it's like throwing yourself into a net! If you want me to say, it's better to go directly to Beijing to sue the royal court, this black-hearted boss will definitely be punished! ”

"You've just come from out of town, right? A few days ago, there was also a teenager who was upset and shouted to sue the emperor, but the next day he disappeared, and I heard that his body was found in a mass grave. Someone next to him immediately covered the mouth of the answerer, his eyes flew wildly, and he motioned to stop talking.

"The righteousness of the country is at the head, but these profiteers only think about petty profits, and abandon the lives of the people, they really deserve to die!"

The buzz of talking rang out.

The boss's narrow eyes swept over He Hong, and his murderous gaze fell on the crowd.

The officers and soldiers understood, and immediately raised their weapons and rushed into the crowd, so frightened that everyone immediately shut up, lowered their heads, and slowly moved back.

The corners of He Hong's mouth twitched, and he forcibly suppressed the urge to beat people, but the strength in his hands was greater, and he said loudly.

"One person does things and one person is responsible, and the owner shows off his power in front of the powerless people, what kind of ability is it. Buying and selling human beings in front of so many people, aren't you afraid of leaking the news and cutting off the head of the whole family? ”

The boss of the rice shop saw that He Hong's conversation was not like ordinary people, but he was not afraid that these people would have the ability to go to Kyoto to sue the emperor, but he was afraid that his opponent would fall into the ground, so he suppressed his anger and took out the document he had just written.

"You can see clearly with your eyes open, this is not a deed of sale, but an invitation to her to do a long-term job!"

As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar, I have to say that this boss has a lot of eyes, and the little brother has suffered a loss, what should he do next, he won't really be beaten by the officers and soldiers, right?

Unexpectedly, in the eyes of everyone, He Hong didn't look at it, and directly took away the documents in the hands of the boss of the rice shop and tore them to shreds!

I have never seen such an arrogant person!

"You're here to find fault!" The anger in the chest of the rice shop boss rushed to the top of his head, completely forgetting the pain when he was clamped by the person in front of him just now, and raised his hand to fan He Hong's face.

The officers and soldiers who watched the excitement also reacted, and immediately surrounded He Hong.

The situation is on the verge of erupting!

At this moment, Xiao Wenjun, who was dressed in red, Shi Shiran pushed aside the surrounding officers and soldiers and walked in slowly.

"My subordinate, a young man, doesn't understand the local rules, boss, what do you think of this?"

"Lose money!" The boss saw that Xiao Wenjun was full of luxury and had an extraordinary temperament, so he didn't catch He Hong anymore.

"Good! What is the compensation method? ”

"Girl, refreshed!" The boss pretended to make an abacus, but there were words in his mouth, "The little girl has a good appearance, she can sell it for a good price in the future, for your sake, I will charge you forty taels if I give you a twenty percent discount." ”

As soon as the words came out, even the officers and soldiers looked back at the boss a few times, and felt that the boss was too greedy.

Forty taels of silver, in a peaceful year, can be exchanged for 4,000 catties of grain, even in a disaster year, the price of grain rises 20 times, can also be exchanged for 200 catties of grain.

Besides, the little girl only sold five buckets of rice just now, counting the one or two pieces of silver, it was only sixty-five catties of grain, and it was only a quarter of an hour before and after, and she earned so much difference.

Seeing Xiao Wenjun bowing slightly, He Hong grinned: "Forty taels, right?" ”

With that, he took out forty taels of broken silver from his purse and put it on the table.

The owner of the rice shop stretched his neck, only to find that He Hong's purse was bulging, heavy, his eyes rolled, and the lion opened his mouth and said, "I'm talking about forty taels of gold!" ”

Everyone gasped in unison!

In troubled times gold, Taiping jade, on weekdays, one tael of gold can be exchanged for ten taels of silver, in this chaotic Jiangnan, forty taels of gold is worth six hundred taels of silver, how did he open his mouth?

The boss also felt that he was going too far, but he still shouted hard: "Forty taels of gold, this girl, you can take it away!" ”

Xiao Wenjun nodded at He Hong, "I have a relationship with this girl!" After speaking, he picked up the little girl, gently combed her messy and somewhat malnourished hair, lowered his voice and asked gently.

"Your name is Liu Qiao?" Xiao Wenjun looked at the girl, she was staring in the direction where her father, who had ruthlessly abandoned her, and her eyes were full of sadness.

In his previous life, Yu Wenyao's subordinates adopted the girl in front of him in a brothel in the capital. Yu Wenyao attaches great importance to her, approaches her, gives her care and love, and makes her do things for him with all her heart.

Under Lu Jingyi's dedicated cultivation, she was packaged as a daughter of Jiangnan who went to Beijing to play, deliberately approached the five princes, and became the biggest time bomb buried next to Yu Wenzhen.

When Yu Wenyao finished using Liu Qiao, she specially set up a celebration banquet for her, she went to the banquet with joy, but she didn't want to die like this, she knew too much, he didn't worry, he didn't even need to listen to her show loyalty, that's all.

At that time, after she was poisoned, she was lying in her arms, struggling to look at Yu Wenyao who was walking away, and she had such a sad expression.

"Su Yurou, I, Yu Wenyao, will never accept a Qinglou woman as a concubine, it's time to wake up from your dream!"

He even forgot her original name, Liu Qiao, although she didn't want to mention it herself.

Xiao Wenjun woke up from her memories and looked at the girl in front of her, her expression seemed to be more apprehensive: "Sister, my father doesn't want me anymore, and I don't want this name anymore." Can my sister give me a new name? ”

Liu Qiao tilted his neck slightly, looking at Xiao Wenjun with wet eyes, with pleading and hope. She knew that the boss of the rice shop was not a good person, and the only one who could save her was the beautiful sister in front of her, but she was not sure, who would be willing to give so much silver in exchange for a thin woman like her in a disaster year?

"My surname is Xiao, can you follow my surname?"

"Hmm!" The little girl's eyes were bright, and the bright light made everyone a little dizzy.

"Then your name is Xiao Keren, you were born so cute, it's just right to take this name." Xiao Wenjun pinched her cheeks, she was too thin, there was no two taels of meat, and she said distressedly: "With a new name, it is a new beginning, just forget about the previous things." ”

Xiao Keren nodded heavily, tears welling up in his eyes.

This He Hong took out forty taels of gold bars from his purse and slapped them heavily on the counter, with a snap, the silver on the table shook a few times, and the fat on the boss's face also trembled.

When his gaze fell on the gold, the bean's big eyes burst out with greedy light. Ignoring everyone's disdainful gaze, he eagerly picked up the little yellow croaker and took a bite, confirming that it was gold, and replacing it with a flattering smile.

"There are a lot of young girls in my backyard, tall, short, fat and thin, everything, do you want to pack them up and collect them together? I'll give you a 20% discount, 5% off! ”
