Chapter 54: Visiting the Market

When Yang Miao came to the lobby, Mi Jiaxi was talking to Jia Zhenqi, and when he saw Yang Miao coming, the two stood up and saluted, "Son, good." ”

After Yang Miao sat down, he said, "The two of you have worked hard, has Director Mi made progress in site selection?"

"Childe is right, I have already paid the deposit, and the family will arrive in a few days, so go to the government office to register, pay the balance, and then Childe will also go over to sign the owner. Mi Jiaxi replied.

"So smooth, is that place good? As for the owner of the house, it's you Mi Jiaxi. Yang Miao asked.

"There were some twists and turns, but overall it went well. I think it's better to write the name of the owner, otherwise my father will scold me if he finds out. Mi Jiaxi said.

"I've made up my mind about this, I don't have to back down, as for Uncle Mi's side, I'll explain it when I see it. Yang Miao said.

"Yes, Childe. Mi Jiaxi replied.

After that, the Mi family also told Yang Miao about some of the processes in the middle, and Yang Miao was also surprised when she heard it, such a good place could be abandoned, and in the end it was lived by a group of children.

Fortunately, the broker appeared in time, otherwise Mi Jiaxi would really have to deal with a group of children.

Nearly 20 days have passed, and the personnel and money of the Mi family have not yet arrived in Wangcheng, so they sent a letter saying that they had encountered a group of horse thieves on the road, and they had been detouring for more than ten days.

The owner of the Chengnan compound thought that Mi Jiaxi didn't want it, so he came over to urge him a few times, and Mi Jiaxi tried his best to appease him when he saw it.

Yang Miao originally wanted Mi Xing to pay for it, but Mi Jiaxi said that the Mi family would come out of this, saying that Yang Miao was also using money now, and he would save if he could.

In December, Yang Miao was preparing for the written exam, and everyone did not bother Yang Miao under the instructions of Qiu Shi.

By December 8, all 25 members of the Mi family had arrived in Wangcheng, and the next day, Mi Jiaxi had paid the balance and re-registered the name of the owner in the government.

When Mi Jiaxi arrived at the large courtyard in the south of the city with 25 people, there were no more children in it, and when Mi Jiaxi looked at the situation in the two rooms at that time, these children had been gone for more than 20 days.

With Jia Zhenqi's help, it took three days for the Mi family to clean up the front, middle and back, as well as the left and right sides, a total of five yards.

After that, some masters were also hired to repair some old or damaged places in the large yard, and began to buy some chariots and horses for future carriage and horse operation.

In Yang Miao's absence, after deliberation among the seven supervisors, it was decided that the Mi's Carriage and Horse Gang would open on January 16 of the following year, so there was still nearly a month to make preparations.

Mi Jiaxi replaced the original sign on the courtyard gate with the word "Mifu".

In order to prepare follow-up forces for the Mi Carriage and Horse Gang in the future, at Jia Zhenqi's suggestion, Mi Jiaxi and Jia Zhenqi took four guards to prepare to go to the Chengdong City to have a look and buy some suitable subordinates or slaves to come back.

In view of Chang Fuyou's familiarity with the human market, the two took Chang Fuyou to the human market together.

The most lively people market is at the beginning of the year and the middle of the year, so the people market at the end of the year is not lively, and there are not many people buying and selling.

The group first arrived in the central area, and there were no slaves from the government for sale, so it was very deserted, and even if some slaves were being sold, the quality of the personnel was very poor.

Chang Fuyou took them to walk around the outermost periphery, there were many slaves for sale, all of them were adults, and at the end of the year, no one wanted to buy children, after all, during the New Year, there were not many things, and the children bought it for nothing.

"Brother Mi, I saw some acquaintances," Jia Zhenqi pointed to the position on the right side of the front, "Isn't it?" ”

"Really, though, let's take a detour. Mi Jiaxi said.

"We are buying slaves and subordinates, not selling ourselves, so why do we take a detour? Jia Zhenqi asked with a smile.

"I'm a person who likes to avoid embarrassment, and these people just don't want to see them because they've seen them, and they're still very unpleasant. Mi Jiaxi replied a little unhappily.

"Brother Mi, I'm angry, then I won't talk about it. Jia Zhenqi said to Chang Fuyou, "Fuyou, let's take a detour." ”

"Okay, listen to the two directors. Chang Fuyou said politely, pointing to the left and saying, "Let's go around from the left." ”

"Director Mi, may I ask who those people were just now?" Chang Fuyou asked cautiously.

"When I bought Mifu before, these children lived in it, and when I wanted to buy it, they wanted to make me stumble, so I didn't like such children very much. Mi Jiaxi said calmly, not looking angry.

"We went around the same way, and it had very little impact on our trip. Chang Fuyou comforted Mi Jiaxi and said.

After the group bypassed one of the stalls they had just had, they turned to the periphery.

"Childe, let's take care of us, we have grown up, we are strong, and we are very capable. ”

"Yes, sir, look at my arm. ”

They heard a couple of older boys in front of them selling themselves.

In his opinion, people who walk around the mainland, in addition to their minds and knowledge, is also very important to take the initiative to open their mouths.

Mi Jiaxi followed the flow of people slowly, reached the position where the voice just came from, and listened.

"Childe, you take us, we are young, we will become more and more powerful in the future, we will be very hardworking. "One of the children knelt down and kowtowed.

Listening to some familiar voices, Mi Jiaxi said, "You guys raise your heads and let me see." ”

Several people raised their heads, their eyes widened, and at the same time made an "ah" sound, and then they just looked at each other and stopped talking.

"Why don't you say it?" asked Mi Jiaxi.

"We don't have much to say. One boy said.

"You can go on, please take us in. Mi Jiaxi said very calmly.

Jia Zhenqi and Chang Fuyou saw Mi Jiaxi talking to someone here, and they also stopped and watched.

"Why should Childe insult us, we are poor, and we have done sneaky things, and that is because I am hungry and have no choice. The boy said.

"I didn't insult you, don't you want to go into the house to work, there is a shortage of people in my house, you can come if you want, but after you come, you must listen to me, you are willing. Mi Jiaxi asked.

Several people were surprised to hear this and asked, "Is what you said true?"

"Really, I was joking?" said Mi Jiaxi earnestly.

"We do, we do. The boy led the group to say.

"Then let's go. Mi Jiaxi said, "It's good for you to follow." ”

"Childe, the little one has a request. The boy said.

"Say it. Mi Jiaxi said a little unhappily.

"You can take Hu Qian and the others as well, they are not far from there. The boy said, pointing in the direction they had walked.

"We'll come over there, they're too young, I don't want them to be useless. Mi Jiaxi said.

The boy knelt down, "Please, Childe, they still have many children, regardless of them, many of them will die in this year." ”

"Well," Mi asked the other children, "do you think the same way?"

The children looked at each other and nodded.

"Then let's do it," Mi Jiaxi said angrily, "you don't have to follow me, I don't want any." With that, Mi Jiaxi walked away, leaving the five children stunned.
