Chapter 53 Refugee Areas

He swayed and led the horse and was about to leave, but suddenly Zhao Ming seemed to think of something. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"By the way, I can ask the shopkeeper!" Zhao Ming patted his head, he didn't know how to ask when he first came to the capital, and he turned around the market for a long time, and this time Zhao Ming just left the inn and had a long memory.

"That, shopkeeper, I'll ...... later" Zhao Ming hurriedly shouted to stop the shopkeeper who was about to turn around and go in.

As soon as the shopkeeper heard the adult call him, he hurriedly ran over again.

"My lord, what else do you have to order?" the shopkeeper nodded and smiled.

"Well, I'm just asking, where should I find a maid, why haven't I found it after wandering around for a long time?"

"Oh, it turns out that you're looking for a maid!" Zhao Ming looked at the shopkeeper's expression like this, and suddenly frowned.

Seeing Zhao Ming's expression, the shopkeeper hurriedly explained, and said, "Don't mind, my lord, this is the wrong place for you." ”

"Looking for the wrong place?" Zhao Ming was stunned when he heard the words of the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper smiled and continued: "In fact, the buying and selling of this population is not allowed by the laws of the imperial court on the surface, and there is no such phenomenon in the capital. ”

When Zhao Ming heard this, he suddenly realized, it turned out that this human trafficking was illegal even in the Great Song Dynasty, but the law was not sound enough, and the law in this area was superficial, and there was no actual enforcement at all.

"My lord, if you really want to find a maid, you can go to the art shop to find your mother to redeem an artist, if you don't have high requirements, then you can go directly to the outside of the city to inquire and you can find some places where refugees gather, as long as you say there that you have the meaning of accepting maids, there will be many people who are willing, as long as you can afford to eat and drink, you can pick hard." ”

Zhao Ming's eyelids jumped when the shopkeeper said it.

"Why didn't you think of it?" Zhao Ming suddenly felt aggrieved about the half day he was wandering.

But the shopkeeper then said: "If you don't have high requirements for the maid, adults!"

"Huh?" Zhao Ming was stunned when he heard this, what is this called!

Seeing Zhao Ming's confused look, the shopkeeper explained with a smile.

"My lord, don't you know, these refugees are not people near the capital, they are all from Shandong, Shaanxi where they have fled, most of the people who can stay along the way are men, even if there are women, they are all peasant ladies who can afford to endure hardships, young girls and children are rarely alive to get here, so the little one said that if you don't have high requirements for the maid, you can go there to find it. ”

Zhao Ming suddenly felt that his head was full of black lines, even if he was not high for his maid, he didn't need to be versatile, at least he had to be able to see it, you are all asked by the farmer's aunt to pick it out? Can you pick out flowers?

As soon as the shopkeeper saw that the face of the adult in front of him was getting more and more gloomy, and his eyes were getting more and more wrong, he hurriedly pulled his mouth and said: "What, my lord, I still have a lot of things to do in this store, I'll go in first if you are fine." Without waiting for Zhao Ming to say anything, he spread his legs and ran back to the inn.

Zhao Ming didn't bother with the shopkeeper who said in three paragraphs of this sentence, and led the horse in the direction of the art workshop.

It didn't take long for Zhao Ming to find the art workshop, the art workshop is still relatively famous in the capital, many people who buy pressed flowers as long as they have some capital will come here, and the maid who has an art workshop at home is also a face-saving thing in front of outsiders.

But Zhao Ming came out not long after he entered.

"What a place, I don't know what the customer says about God, and I can't even meet my little request......" Zhao Ming scolded and scolded the art workshop in his mouth, in fact, Zhao Ming didn't inquire clearly before (in fact, the shopkeeper wanted to talk about it before, but then he was scared by Zhao Ming and ran away without saying anything), people are also open to do business, of course, they will not do loss-making business, generally people in Beijing know that if you buy a maid in the art workshop, you will spend a lot of money to buy a single, those are the mothers of the art workshop who spend a lot of energy to train them, and the price cannot be low, and this is a signboard, if the price is cheap, how can you let those local tyrants voluntarily spend a lot of money to smash in。

Of course, there are some mansions that need a large number of maids, of course, it is impossible to spend a lot of money to buy these signs, the art workshop will specially train a group of little girls together, these people are trained together, many talents are trained tacitly at the beginning, how can it be delayed to dismantle and sell to Zhao Ming.

Zhao Ming wants to buy an ordinary little maid to take care of his daily life, the signature bar of this art workshop is the cheapest for three or four hundred taels, and Zhao Ming's whole body is not necessarily worth buying one, he wants to buy those first-grade bars and it is impossible for them to sell them to him individually, even if he takes out the waist card, people don't buy it, and people have seen too many eunuchs.

When my mother saw Zhao Ming take out her waist card, she smiled sarcastically: "It's useless, don't scare me, there are ...... people above us."

So, I saw Zhao Ming scolding and walking out of the door of the art workshop.

No way, now I don't want to go to the refugee area, I have to go, I originally planned to stay in the capital at the beginning, it doesn't matter, it's a big deal to spend more time cleaning, but who knows that the plan can't catch up with the change, this boss suddenly came to a task, if you stay in the capital and don't move your buttocks, you can't let your boss find trouble with yourself!

Zhao Ming led the horse all the way out of the capital, looking for someone to inquire, there are quite a lot of nearby refugee areas, in recent years, the Great Song Dynasty has begun to go downhill, many places are full of disasters and difficulties, of course, no matter how many disasters and difficulties outside will not be seen in the imperial city, so many refugees fled to the capital, and many parties gathered naturally more and more people.

Zhao Ming rode all the way through these refugee areas, and Zhao Ming didn't find a agreeable one until the evening, and then Zhao Ming sighed: "Who is the little second pit in this shop, these people are still maids? Zhao Ming led the horse out of the imperial city arrogantly, and after half a day, Zhao Ming led the horse to the imperial city in a decadent manner.

But before Zhao Ming entered the city, a guy with a rat head and a rat brain ran over, his eyes glanced at the officers and soldiers at the gate of the capital, and quietly pulled Zhao Ming to the side.

Zhao Ming didn't want him to be puzzled, and looked at this guy with a rat head and a rat brain strangely.

Seeing Zhao Ming looking at him, this guy hurriedly smiled and said, "My lord, you're looking for a maid!"

"How do you know?" Zhao Ming looked at him suspiciously.

"Hehe, we noticed you when you were walking around the refugee area, hehe, you can't find a suitable one there, right?" The guy who was talking about the rat head and rat brain looked at Zhao Ming with an affirmative expression.

As soon as Zhao Ming saw his expression, he immediately understood, it was not that there was no good one in the refugee area, but it was just that he had been picked away a long time ago, Zhao Ming couldn't help but sigh at the business acumen of these people, sure enough, they have everything!

Zhao Ming didn't need to be persuaded by the guy with a rat's brain, he just followed, he was not afraid of any danger, Zhao Ming was still confident in his strength, he didn't have time to take action against the bandits last time.

Soon the two of them came to the place, and at first glance, this posture was not much better than the refugee area, but at least there was food and shelter here, although it was not necessarily good, but for them, the refugees, as long as there was something to eat and a place to sleep, they didn't care who they followed, these people have been forced numb by this life.

The rat-headed guy took Zhao Ming to a large square, where several people were already choosing, and the square was standing in rows like cattle, waiting for the trial.

Zhao Ming looked at these refugees dressed like beggars, these were quite good, better than the ones Zhao Ming saw in the afternoon.

"Eh, no wonder the beggar gang is the largest gang now, let alone the largest gang, they can find a reason to revolt. Zhao Ming looked at them and couldn't help but sigh at the injustice of this world.

"My lord, you come here to see, look at it vigorously, of course, these are not as good as the ladies in the art workshop, but there are also a lot of good ones, but they are dirty, and when the time comes, you will definitely be satisfied with going back and washing. The rat-headed rat-brained guy next to him introduced it attentively, just like buying and selling things in the market.
