"If the eldest lady wants to buy it, it will cost five taels of silver." The middle-aged man quoted the price.

"Boss, you're not kind to business." Zhao Cuishi glanced at him, is this slaughtering as a fat sheep?

"She is very capable, and she is the housekeeper of the eunuch's family." The middle-aged man explained.

"I know who she is, I know her, I don't want her to suffer in this slave market, so I want to buy her, but it's not worth it to buy her at such an expensive price." Zhao Cuishi sneered.

When the middle-aged man heard this, he knew that Zhao Cui's would not spend a lot of money to buy people, so he quoted the real price, "Auntie, if you want to buy it, just give three hangs." ”

According to the exchange ratio of the bank, one tael of silver can be exchanged for about 1,500 copper coins.

One hanging is a thousand copper coins, and three hanging coins are about two taels of silver, which is the real price.

"She's one, I'll pick another one." Cho's gaze swept over the other women in the fence.

The women looked at her expectantly, in the slave market, poorly fed, sleeping on the ground, living like pigs, and they were all looking forward to being bought quickly.

Cho Cuishi quickly made a decision, she pointed to a woman in a gray patched dress, "Just her." ”

"Two people, the eldest mother will give me five and a half dollars." The middle-aged man said.

"Okay." Zhao Cuishi happily paid the money for buying slaves.

The middle-aged man arranged for someone to write a deed of sale, "Auntie, is it a deed of life or a deed of death?" ”

"Live the contract, they will have a good future in the future, and if they want to redeem themselves, I won't stop them." Zhao Cuishi said indifferently.

The middle-aged man glanced at Zhao Cuishi and didn't say anything.

Zhao Cui's family did not let Buckwheat Niangzi and another person named Wei Niangzi stay at the stall, but took them to another stall together.

"Ah Qiao, I remember that you have a son, how old is he? Is it still in Slave City? Zhao Cuishi asked.

"The old lady has a good memory, the slave maid has a son, who is seventeen years old this year, and he is still in the slave market." There was hope in the buckwheat lady's eyes.

Mrs. Zhao asked her son if she was planning to buy her son as well.

If the mother and son really don't need to be separated, she must be a better errand!

Zhao Cuishi did not disappoint her, and indeed spent four dollars to buy her son Ah Sheng, "Your eldest brother is going to study in the academy, and there must be a scholar by his side." ”

Buckwheat Niangzi immediately pulled her son to kneel down and kowtow to Zhao Cui's, "Thank you, old lady, thank you, old lady." ”

"You don't have to be like this, just serve the girl well in the future." Zhao Cuishi said.

"The slave must serve the good girl with all her heart." Buckwheat Lady said immediately.

Seeing this, Wei Niangzi pouted, wanting to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything.

At the stall where Ah Sheng was buying, Zhao Cuishi also bought a driver Ah Cai, who could drive a car.

The people in the mansion all have rich eyes, and she can't let others underestimate her good granddaughter and bully her good granddaughter.

Is it true that the old lady has no money in her hand?

Back then, she also married into the Zhao family with ten miles of red makeup, and she was rich and noble.

After moving to the family, I don't want to put on unnecessary pomp, so I save some life.

Now for the sake of the granddaughter, the pomp and circumstance that should be put on must be arranged.

"Xiao Yue'er, now go buy the two big girls who are waiting by your side, you have to pick them well." Zhao Cuishi said with a smile.

"Grandma won't help me choose?" Zhao Wangshu felt that Zhao Cui's trusted her too much, and she really didn't know how to choose a maid.

"It's for you, of course you have to choose, what if Grandma doesn't like it?" Zhao Cuishi deliberately teased her.

"I like whatever grandma picks." Zhao Wangshu said coquettishly.

That being said, Zhao Cuishi still let her choose her own handmaiden.

The maids in the stalls that sell young maids are the largest among the stalls, just like in Xinu City, there are more girls than boys.

The clothes they wore were also better than those in other stalls.

Of course, their prices are also more expensive than others, one costs six yuan.

Zhao Wangshu walked past the fence, and the girls were all looking at her.

After observing for a while, Zhao Wangshu took a fancy to a girl in blue, "How old are you?" What is your name? In which province did you work in before? What will it be? ”

"Back to the girl's words, the slave maid Chunfen is fourteen years old this year, and the previous master family is the original Zeng's family, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, and the slave maid used to serve in the courtyard of the third girl Zeng and would do needlework."

This sounds like she understands the rules, and Zhao Wangshu saw that she took care of herself very cleanly, "Grandma, I think this is okay." ”

Zhao Cuishi nodded, "Pick another one." ”

Zhao Wangshu picked one out of a bunch of people and asked her the same question.

"Back to the girl, the slave maid Luzhi is fifteen years old this year, the previous master was the former Zhongshun Marquis Mansion, and the slave maid used to serve in the yard of Jiang Ershao's grandmother, and the slave maid can also do needlework."

"Grandma, this is fine." Zhao Wangshu looked at it before asking.

Zhao Cuishi had no objection, gave the silver, wrote the deed of sale, took out half a hanging money, and handed it to Ah Cai, "Go hire a car." ”

"Yes, old lady." Ah Cai happily took the money with both hands.

While waiting for him to hire a car, Zhao Cuishi took people to sit and wait at the tea stall next to him, ordered three pots of tea, and asked for a few plates of pastries, "You can eat too." ”

"Thank you, old lady." The buckwheat lady thanked her gratefully.

Their clothes are a little thin, and in this twilight autumn season, shivering in the cold wind, it is good to have a cup of hot tea to warm up their bodies.

The proprietress of the tea stall was a little disgusted with the buckwheat lady, if it wasn't for Zhao Cui's order of tea and pastries, she would have been driven out a long time ago.

Without waiting for instructions, Lu Zhi carried a pot and poured two cups of tea for Zhao Cui's and Zhao Wangshu.

Zhao Wangshu picked up the teacup, warmed his hands, and was about to take a low sip of tea, when a carriage stopped in front of the tea stall.

A noble lady of the same age as Zhao Cui's got out of the carriage, and she walked straight to Zhao Cui's face, "I thought I was dazzled by the mistake, I don't want it to be you." ”

Zhao Cui's expression was cold: "It's hard for you to grow eyeballs at such an age." ”

"Hey, you're still so unpleasant." The lady rolled her eyes.

Zhao Cuishi sneered, "Who can compare to your tongue lotus." ”

"The girl Yu who was dressed in fine clothes and food back then is now reduced to this humble tea stall, drinking coarse tea that is difficult to swallow, this situation is really embarrassing." The lady said in a strange way.

"The pampered lady is not in the house to avoid the cold, she goes out in person, I don't know if she is looking for a respected husband or a Linglang?" Zhao Cuishi asked with a sneer.

These words should have struck the noble lady's sore spot, and she said unhappily: "It seems that I should not have come here to say hello." ”

"You shouldn't have come, it's not a good relationship, it's good to meet, it's good not to know each other." Zhao Cuishi said politely.

The noble lady was so frightened by these words that she looked annoyed, snorted coldly, turned around, got into the carriage, and walked away.

Zhao Wangshu, who was watching with relish, saw that the noble lady's combat effectiveness was so poor, and he still felt a little unfinished, "Grandma, who is she?" ”

"A man who doesn't know what to call it." Zhao Cuishi drank a few sips of tea, "She is my aunt's niece Zhong Yao, she has loved to compare since she was a child, she does not admit defeat, and she has to compete everywhere." ”

Zhao Cuishi thought for a while, and added, "Oh, she is married to the third son of Hejian Bo, known as Wang Zhong, maybe she will meet at the banquet of that family in the future, don't bother with her." ”

"Got it." Zhao Wangshu replied with a smile.
