The next morning, when he was sending his children to school, Ling Jingxuan asked song yang to fill two jars of spicy dried meat and spiced pork jerky to Chuci father and son in small jars filled with jam. Song Yang was so worried about their children that they would be hungry when they went to school, so he put some of them in oil paper bags and put them in schoolbags to let them eat when they were hungry.
Last night, because of the children's fight, they didn't cook jam after dinner. There were many wild fruits waiting to be cleaned and boiled in the warehouse. Under Yan Shengrui's insistence, Ling Jingxuan decided to stay at home to boil jam. The rest of the people went up the mountain. The only one who was idle was Ling Jinghan, who was reading in the pavilion.
"Master Xuan, Liu Baobao said that he might not bring people here until noon."
The jam making workshop covers a very large area, and * * is divided into two parts. On one side, a lot of water tanks are built to clean the fruit; on the other hand, a whole row of stoves are built on each stove. When the restaurant is in a hurry, Ling Jingxuan usually cooks them together. It's the same today. When old song came in to report, he was in three Busy in the pot, he just nodded his head casually to show that he knew. He didn't reply for half a word. Song Geng Niu didn't care, so he went out to go to the mountain. As long as he started work at home, he would go to the mountain to help after sending the children.
At noon, the family got together to have lunch. Since the family's economy improved, Ling Jingxuan completely ignored the rule of two meals a day and changed it to three meals a day. At the beginning, Ling and Jackie Ling thought it was a bit extravagant. They talked to him implicitly twice. Who knows, they always come back to listen to him and gradually get used to three meals a day Zhao Hanfu is used to it. Even if he doesn't rush to make jam, they will make lunch in their own home at noon.
Another change is to take a nap. It's not only Ling Chenglong, but also the old song family. Ling Jingxuan also requires them to take a nap. Of course, the reason is that he is good for his health. Anyway, he is a doctor. Who dares not believe what he says?
"Master Xuan, Liu Bao has brought people here."
Thanks to the wolf father and son's three gifts, they have a lot of oil and water on the table these two days. Six dishes and one soup are all meat dishes. When old song came in to report, Ling Jingxuan just put down his dishes and chopsticks: "bring them in."
Watching the family almost finished eating, Ling Jingxuan is ready to let them help choose people together.
After the old song retired, Song Yang and song Shuiling quickly removed the leftover food on the table. Ling Jinghan took a look at his elder brother: "how many people will you buy this time?"
"I don't know. Let's have a look first. More or less is OK. The main thing is quality. Later, you can learn to choose two. When our business grows bigger, there will be more people to buy. It's not bad to learn how to look at people."
Ling Jingxuan shrugged his shoulders and leaned on his chair. His eyes narrowed slightly. Yan Shengrui, beside him, was not much better. After a morning's tiredness, he was used to taking a nap. At the end of the day, they didn't want to move.
"We want it, too? Jingxuan, my mother can't, or you can choose two at will? "
Once they heard that they also wanted to learn how to choose people. Ling Wang repeatedly waved her hands. She listened to Song Yang's saying that some slaves had long been shameful when they were walking around people's teeth. If they didn't buy good slaves, they often had bigger airs than their masters. They were born in ordinary farmers. Who were the opponents of those slaves?
"Is there anything else you can do to buy people? As long as we have money. "
See her a look of panic, Ling Jingxuan can't help laughing, Ling Wang's even busy way: "in case you buy a bad person, how to deal with it?"
She didn't want to spend money to block herself.
"Mother, don't worry. Their contract of sale is in our hands. According to the law of the Qing Dynasty, even if a slave who has signed a death contract is killed and maimed by his master, he will not be responsible. If he buys a slave, he will be sold out."
In this respect, Yan Shengrui seems to be very familiar with him. Even Ling Jingxuan can't help but look at him and smile with interest. If he is not sure that he has lost his memory, he really wants to doubt whether he is cheating them. It seems that as long as it is the things he has contacted, he will basically open his mouth. Silk is not like a person who has lost his memory.
"But.
Ling Wang's family is still a little embarrassed, but they say that they can't help but look at their husband for help, but Ling's reaction is not much better than him. The couple can only stare at each other with big eyes and small eyes.
"Brother Ling, I haven't seen you for a long time. This house is good. It's spacious and bright. I want to build one for my brother."
After a while, under the leadership of old song, Liu Bao came in with a group of 30 or 40 people. The spacious main room was a little crowded. There were men and women, old and young. One of them was at least 50 years old. There were a few children with small stature. They could not tell their age, but they were no more than 10 years old When she saw Yan Shengrui, some of her eyes would stick to him. Ling Jingxuan raised her eyebrows and looked at Yan Shengrui. The latter shrugged at him, indicating that he didn't mean to seduce anyone. They wanted to stick it on themselves, which had nothing to do with him."Ha ha Yes, I haven't seen you for a long time. I haven't thank Liu Bao for the worker's business. I'll have a dinner party for their relatives and friends at home some other day when I'm finished. Liu will definitely come. "
After reading his eyes, Ling Jingxuan lifted the corners of his lips with a smile. When facing Liu Bao, his face was already covered with a social smile.
"I'm not polite. How many people are you going to buy this time? Are there any special requirements? "
After the politeness, Liu Bao soon got into the theme. He was busy recently, and he didn't have time to delay all the time.
"No, these are all the people in your hands?"
Looking at those people, many people who have been poor in rich and noble families have a naked contempt. They obviously don't look down on them. They think that they are nouveau riche at most, and they want to learn from others if they have two money. But they seem to forget that whether Ling Jingxuan is a nouveau riche or not, at least they have money to buy them, not like him They are reduced to be the object of being bought and sold, even the animals are inferior.
Of course, there are some bad and some good ones. Many of them have been sold for the first time with fear on their faces, and those who hold beautiful illusions and hope to fly to the branches are more numb. After being sold many times, they gradually become numb. It is really too few for the old Song family.
"Well, old song didn't make it clear, so I brought everyone here. Brother Ling, you can choose whatever you want. We can discuss the price." To Ling Jingxuan, Liu Bao Bao always holds a flattering and inexplicable fear, although he does not know what he is afraid of.
"Father and mother, elder brother Zhao and elder brother Han, respect Han Jingpeng, you choose first."
After having a look at those people, Ling Jingxuan resolutely gave up the priority. Zhao Hanfu heard that he had a share, and even said, "we don't need it. You see, we basically spend three meals a day here. The family also needs to help, and it's useless to buy people."
They don't dare to be as luxurious as Ling Jingxuan, although they are rich in Lingjia village now.
"Ha ha Don't you want to match iron boy with a schoolboy or something? I'm going to give Xiaowen one. Xiaohuzi is more stable, so I'll leave it to Xiaowu. It's better to choose children of the same age as them, and let them grow up together, so that they can serve them better in the future. In the future, iron Wanzi will go to Beijing for the exam sooner or later. We can't let them go alone, can't we? "
As long as it is Ling Jingxuan's decision, he has words to persuade them. No, when it comes to iron warlords, Zhao Dalong is resolutely silent, and Han Fei's eyes are more impolitely moved to the children. They are willing to spend more money for their son.
"Mother, I will accompany you."
Seeing that her father and mother were not moving, Ling Jinghan got up and helped her up. After Ling Jingpeng on the other side did not fall behind, he helped his father to follow them, and walked in front of the people in four rows. Some of the girls were good-looking, strong and elegant. They all looked like they were not married. They could not help raising their heads at a 45 degree angle Pitifully looking at them, it is a pity that the two brothers do not understand the amorous feelings, did not look at them at all.
"Just this girl. She's not bad."
When he got to the last row, he was about to finish watching. He chose a pretty girl at random. Ling Jinghan swept his eyes and frowned. He noticed this. Ling Jingxuan also followed him. He saw that girl was looking at Ling Jinghan with shame and shyness. Ling Jingxuan suddenly felt funny. Is his mother going to choose a concubine for the emperor? This woman's appearance is very pure, but the coquettish fox in that pair of eyes has no cover up. I'm afraid that the servant girl of a rich family who climbed the bed was sold by the hostess? She really dares to choose.
"Niang, we are the people who choose to work, not beauty pageants. We can't just look at their looks. You should first look at their hands. If you don't have any cocoons on them, you can't take them. Besides, if you look too beautiful, you're the most beautiful beauty in our family. How can anyone compare them?"
Holding her, Ling Jinghan said half jokingly, and indirectly denied the choice of the girl.
"Go, where are you going to tease your mother like that?"
After he made a fuss, most of the tension of Ling Wang's family disappeared. He took the girl's hand and looked at it according to the way he said. It was even more tender than she had been raising for more than a month. Ling Wang gave up and chose a woman who looked about 30 years old with a birthmark on her face. Ling Jinghan asked her about her situation and knew that she was too ugly He was sold only when he bumped into the original master, and he didn't stop him. He was a servant. As Yan Shengrui said, it's not suitable to sell.
After a while, Linghan's choice of a young man's daughter-in-law seems to be the same as that of a man in his twenties We will find that buying people is also a profound knowledge. We can never look at the surface of people.
