"In that case, I have to thank you."
The man shook his head quickly, with a look of humility and fear on his face, "Miss, you are joking. With your noble status, how can you apologize to someone as lowly as me? You are embarrassing me."
This conversation was very comforting to listen to.
It feels good to be flattered by others. No wonder many big shots like to have a flatterer around them.
When the man saw Su Yin smile, the smile on his face became even wider, and a hint of determination flashed in the depths of his eyes.
Su Yin turned to the dark-skinned man and said, "What are you still doing standing there? Come over here."
After these words were spoken, the human boy held back his anger, and the other slaves were also stunned.
The dark-skinned man involved did not react either. He was stunned for several breaths, then raised his head and asked in astonishment, "Miss, are you calling me?"
"Yes." Su Yin nodded.
The dark man did not walk over immediately, but asked a question.
This question is also a question that puzzles everyone present.
"Why?"
In many wealthy families, they would not choose slaves with disabilities. He was chosen this time just to make up the numbers. There was no way there were so many people who could practice martial arts among the slaves.
He never thought he would be chosen.
So, he was puzzled.
Not only was he puzzled, everyone present was puzzled.
Su Yin looked at him with clear eyes and said word by word: "Because you deserve it. The defect on your foot is not a shame, but an honor. It is a wound left for protecting the Great Yong Dynasty, and it deserves respect from every one of us. What reason do we have to look down on it and despise it?"
"If you hadn't defended the border against foreign invaders, we wouldn't be able to live and work in peace. Your leg injury is not a shame. Why wouldn't I choose you?"
The 1.80-meter-tall dark-skinned man could no longer hold back his long-suppressed emotions and burst into tears.
Ever since he retired from the army, his lame legs have been met with countless cold stares, and everyone looks at him with strange eyes.
No one had ever told him that this was not a shame but a mark of honor.
All the slaves present were silent, and everyone looked at Su Yin with a different look.
The boy's heart was shaken. The emotion at that moment could not be described in words. He only had one feeling: his blood was boiling.
Daya looked at Su Yin with admiring eyes, she thought her sister was right.
Even Su Xiaozhong, Su's father, who had remained silent and let his daughter choose the whole time, was shocked by his daughter's words. He inexplicably felt a sense of sadness and blood boiling in his heart.
The man who had just made the accusation looked pale, with disbelief in his eyes, but more of embarrassment.
Su Yin did not scold the dark-skinned man for crying, but waited quietly for him to vent his grievances, allowing her to vent them completely.
After a while, the dark-skinned man wiped away his tears and suddenly knelt down towards Su Yin.
Before coming here, he had no sense of belonging to this world. He didn't care where to go or who to work for.
But at this moment, he was willing to protect this home and the delicate and weak young lady in front of him from the bottom of his heart.
Because she is worth your sacrifice, even if it means sacrificing your life.
"Get up! Get up quickly, I can't stand your kneeling." Su Yin hurriedly helped the man up.
But the dark-skinned man kowtowed three times to Su Yin persistently, "I want to thank you for your love and care on behalf of our dead brothers. Let them know that they are worthy and that there are people in this world who will remember their kindness."
After selecting the driver, Su Yin looked at several young girls at the back. Some of them were younger than her, and some were the same age as her.
Su Yin asked them to introduce themselves and explain where they had worked and why they left.
After listening to each of their introductions, Su Yin selected two maids who were about her own age, experienced, and had clear eyes. They were sisters, one named Xiangling and the other named Xiangcao.
As for the doorman, Su Yin directly chose an older man who had no children and sold himself to make a living.
Most of the people had finished their selections. The man knew that the cook had not yet been chosen, so he apologized with a smile, "Miss Su, I was not thoughtful enough about the cook. I will go back and pick a few better ones."
Su Yin waved her hand, "No need."
The boy's heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself, "Oh no!"
The deal couldn't be done.
As soon as the frustrating thought came to his mind, it was cut off the next second.
“They’re both very good.”
The boy opened his eyes wide in surprise, and suddenly felt a sense of happiness that the surprise came too suddenly.
Not to mention the boy, even Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhang looked confused.
I thought I had no hope, but I never expected that this owner was so bold that he not only took me in, but also took in another person.
Perhaps it was because the surprise came too suddenly that it took the three of them a while to wake up.
Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhang kept thanking Su Yin for keeping them.
After everyone has been selected, the next step is to negotiate the price with the other boys.
Su Yin did not participate and let his father negotiate the price with the other party.
As the second in command of the largest human slave trader, he knew very well the prices of these slaves.
The boy was sweating profusely after negotiating with Su Xiaozhong. He knew that the eldest master of the Su family was so familiar with these things, which was really surprising.
In the end, the price Su Xiaozhong offered was enough for him to earn a small amount of hard-earned money.
Before leaving, the man said, "Master Su, the price I give you this time is the lowest price. If your relatives or friends need anything in the future, you must help them."
Su Xiaozhong agreed repeatedly, "Okay, okay."
At this time, I don’t know my future yet, but because of this good fate, I will become a benchmark and model in the industry.
The young man took the rest of the people away.
Now the family suddenly had two cooks, two maids, a doorman, a coachman and a servant.
Aunt Zhang, Aunt Wang, and the two sisters Xiangling and Xiangcao all kept their previous names.
Those who serve in the inner courtyard are decided by Su Yin.
The three people outside followed Su Xiaozhong's arrangements. The doorman was still called Qu Mingda, the coachman who had retired from the army was called Huo Mingjun, and as for the servant Gousheng.
Because names like Gousheng were indecent, Su Xiaozhong simply changed his name to Moyu.
Before they came, the boys had given them a beating, but the beating was just average and barely acceptable.
Everyone's clothes were tattered and their hair smelled sour.
Su Yin gave Uncle Huo twenty silver coins and asked him to take Aunt Wang to buy some ready-made clothes for themselves, two sets for each person to change into.
