Chapter 275 Placement and Torture
Qin Xiaomi took it and after confirming each one was correct, he nodded and smiled and said: "It's very well done. Thank you for your help, Xiao Pan is in charge."
After that, he handed it over. One tael of silver.
"Thank you Qin Xiaodong for the reward." Xiao Pan didn't show any pretense when he was in charge. He accepted it immediately. He also thought that the Qin family must need to buy something, so he said, "Wait a moment."
Steward Pan took out a pen and paper, He wrote down the addresses of several stores and handed them to Qin Xiaomi: "Qin Xiaodong's family, these stores are all good friends with Guan Ya. If you go to Bao Nu or Manager Peng's name, you will not only be guaranteed to get good goods, but the selling price will also be high." Cheaper.”
On the way, Qin Xiaomi was very satisfied, took the paper, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Xiao Pan, for taking charge."
She estimated that in a short time, the dental shop would have to close its doors to interrogate Zhou Xiaowen, so she did not wait any longer and called Qin Grandpa: "Grandpa, let's go back to the inn first."< br>
He then said to the thirty-two slaves: "Those who are strong will carry the sick and injured."
"Yes." Zhu Liushi's family is considered the strongest, the father and son, plus Aunt Zhu, They went to carry Xu Zhengmao and Tao's cousin Su Sanping respectively.
The rest of the servants carried and helped the patients. They only waited for Qin Xiaomi's order before setting off to leave.
"Here we come." Grandpa Qin took Qin Ying and Qin Eryong to the courtyard to gather. Seeing that the slaves were ready, he said: "Let's set off."
"Yes!" The slaves responded excitedly and followed. The Qin family's mule cart went to the Xue Family Inn on Songbai Street.
There were quite a number of thirty-two people, quite a large crowd, but their clothes were too ragged and there was a smell that made people on the street curse.
The slaves didn't care, they still had smiles on their faces... They were very satisfied if they could be bought before the heavy snow, could stay together as a family, and survive.
After arriving at the inn, the innkeeper was also shocked by this group of people... Where did these disaster victims come from?
"These are the slaves bought by the Qin family. Take them to Datongpu, one room for men and women respectively. Prepare thick porridge for them to fill their bellies. Then prepare hot water for them to wash." Shopkeeper Xue Liu said all this in one sentence The servants are settled.
"Hey." Several waiters immediately called to the slaves: "Come with us."
The slaves did not dare to move, but looked at Qin Xiaomi and asked: "Little boss? "
Qin Xiaomi nodded: "Go."
"Yes." After receiving the master's words, the servants dared to leave.
After a lot of trouble, an hour later, when the slaves came to pay their respects, he finally looked like a human being.
They all knelt down and said: "Slave, I thank my master for saving my life. I will repay my master's kindness with my life in this life!"
In the end, half of them said it. The women and children were crying... They had suffered a lot from the confiscation of their homes and the exile-like selling of the frontier. They also knew that a stable life was hard to come by, so they were very grateful to be bought by the Qin family.
However, when they learned that they were bought by people from the countryside, many slaves in the dental shop laughed at them, saying that they were stupid and rushed to the countryside to live a hard life. They might as well endure it a little longer and maybe meet someone. A wealthy household in a prefectural city can continue to live a good life.
But if you endure it a little longer, who knows if you will die in the cold winter?
Anyway, they are content now.
Qin Xiaomi looked at them and said: "Repayment is not necessary, but I have said something ugly beforehand. If you betray the master, your fate will not be as simple as death."
A word without ups and downs. , but made the slaves feel cold all over, and said hurriedly: "Slaves dare not betray the master, and do not dare to do anything detrimental to the master's family. If they betray the master, The whole family will definitely die!"
Qin Xiaomi: "My family never believes in poisonous oaths and guarantees. It just depends on what you do."
"Yes. The slaves responded, knowing more and more clearly that although this master was small, he was a great one. They must be more respectful, otherwise they would only die.
Qin Xiaomi took the roster and said: "Zhu Yiqing, Zhu Sanhong, Aunt Xiao, Zhu Liushi, Zhu Xuewei..."
There are quite a lot of Zhu family servants.
Qin Xiaomi glanced at the group of slaves and finally clicked: "Xiao Moutong, Old Man Xun."
"Yes!" Old Man Xun was the most active and immediately replied: "What do you have, little boss?" No matter what you say, this old slave will do it even if he is stupid. "The flattery is loud, but...
Qin Xiaomi glanced at him coldly and asked: "Old man Xun, do you want to be sold out so soon?"
This old man has the worst rules. If he doesn't press down, he has to fly into the sky.
"No, I don't dare. Shut up now, old slave." He had just finished eating and had just put on his cotton-padded jacket. He didn't want to go back to Yaxing and live the days of shivering to keep warm and imagining to satisfy his hunger.
Qin Xiaomi was then satisfied and said: "You guys, divide into two groups. The Zhu family, father and son, Zhu Sanhong, follow Granny Xiao to these shops to buy some cotton-padded jackets and medicinal materials."
A group of people are suffering from injuries. If they don’t take medicine to treat their illnesses, they may die.
"Old man Xun, take Xiao Moutong and Zhu Yiqing to the resettlement place for the victims outside the city gate and inquire about the whereabouts of these two people."
Grandpa Qin said: "Xiaomi, are you going to let them go now? Their bodies and bones I’m afraid I can’t bear it.”
Qin Xiaomi looked at the group of old, weak, sick and disabled, and finally said: "Okay, let's rest today and do it tomorrow."
"Yes, I obey the order, thank you master for your trust. ." Grandma Xiao and the others were very grateful.
"Ms. Xiao and Zhu Xuewei, you two have to make good accounts of your expenses during this period. I will check the accounts." Qin Xiaomi said to these two people who knew how to do the accounting.
"Yes." Grandma Xiao and Zhu Xuewei responded, both of them were very excited... They were reused by the young master as soon as they arrived. What a grace it was. The accounts must be done well. If something went wrong, they would want to do it again in the future. Being reused is delusional.
Qin Xiaomi: "Okay, let's go and have a rest first. Eat at midnight tomorrow."
"Yes." The servants were very polite and helped him down.
After Grandpa Qin was free, he was worried about the arrival of Huang Yanglong and Jia Xiang, so he went to the front hall of the inn and asked Xue Liu: "Shopkeeper Xue Liu, haven't Master Huang and Master Jia come back yet?"
"Not yet ." Shopkeeper Xue Liu comforted Grandpa Qin: "Don't worry, Master Huang is with Brother Bai. He is a smart and capable man, and he will be protected by martial arts masters like Huang Laowu. Everything will be fine."
Grandpa Qin: "But Young Master Huang can cause trouble."
Well, one sentence made the shopkeeper Xue Liu feel anxious, and he said hurriedly: "You have to rest, I am familiar with Fucheng, I will lead people here Go find him."
Grandpa Qin: "Cheng, we also need to find Master Jia."
"Don't worry." Shopkeeper Xue Liu took a few guys to find Huang Yanglong. .
After searching for half an hour, I finally dragged this bastard back, with Jia Xiang and the others following behind him.
Huang Yanglong cursed: "What are you doing dragging me back here? That kind of profiteer should be beaten to death!"
Shopkeeper Xue Liu: "..." Take your time and curse, we are all businessmen.
Huang Yanglong was angry because it was rare for him to show kindness. He happily took the donation and went shopping with the people from the government office. As a result, he encountered someone who was raising the price and was still short of a pound. Profiteer.
The profiteer was a relative of the first team leader of the government office. After being exposed by him as a money-making trick, he not only refused to refund the money or replenish the goods, but also acted like a fool.
Can he bear this?
Of course, they greet each other with fists and kicks.
"Master Huang, you have beaten Liu Dong's family and his son into the hospital, that's enough." Shopkeeper Xue Liu advised.
Huang Yanglong snorted coldly: "Humph, it's because they and their son are useless, they can't even hold on with their fists and kicks!"
He said again: "No, I still feel that I am at a loss and must go to the house. Yamen looking for knowledge The master of the government filed a complaint and had that leader taken down!"
"Master Huang, don't go!" Shopkeeper Xue Liu and the others tried to stop Huang Yanglong, but they couldn't stop him. Huang Yanglong found an opportunity and ran away. Government office.
Unfortunately, the government office was busy with Zhou Xiaowen's affairs. Even the prefect was alarmed and had no time to pay attention to him.
