After that, Zhu Da pointed at a man in his forties and said, "This man used to be the third in command of a grain merchant. He has no problem managing the accounts."
Zhu Da wanted to continue, but Chaoge raised his hand to stop him.
Zhu Da smiled widely and walked towards Chaoge, thinking that Chaoge would be very satisfied.
"Miss Yun is still satisfied. These people from Taichuan Prefecture are all good.
Miss Yun has a big family and a lot of wealth. They will help you take care of things in the future and will definitely not let you worry about anything."
"No, I don't want any of these seventeen from Taichuan Prefecture."
Zhu Da!
Zhu Da also thought that Chaoge would definitely be satisfied with the goods since they were purchased from Dayahang.
Who would have thought that Chaoge would actually say such a thing, which completely confused him.
"What does Miss Yun mean?"
Zhu Da was so anxious. After all, he spent one or two taels of silver more than others to buy these people. He thought Chaoge would definitely be satisfied.
“No reason, just don’t.
Let them go back first, and I will pick the rest."
After saying that, Zhu Da had no choice but to quickly ask the seventeen people to go away and stand aside.
Chaoge selected fifteen women, fifteen young men, several middle-aged men, and several middle-aged women from the remaining fifty or so people.
She planned to train fifteen girls and fifteen boys and then send them to the supermarket to start working.
"Miss, I think that girl is pretty good, even though she looks average. And that one knows a little bit of boxing."
After Chaoge finished ordering, Liu He walked to her side, leaned over to her ear, and whispered.
"Okay then. I don't have anyone around me, so the two of them can stay with me."
The two girls, who looked average, walked out of the crowd in a hurry with a look of surprise on their faces. They knelt down in front of Chaoge and said, "Thank you Miss for letting us stay."
One of them was the daughter of a merchant family.
Because of his ordinary appearance, single eyelids, thick lips, freckles all over his face, and a lot of pimples on his face.
She is of medium build, and was always the one being disdained in several transactions.
This person has been sold for more than half a year. She went around in circles thinking that she would be rejected again this time.
But she never expected that Chaoge actually wanted her!
The little girl was probably about fifteen or sixteen years old. She stared at Chaoge with her small eyes wide open, somewhat unable to believe it.
She was already cheering in her heart, but she bit her lip, thinking about her experience in the dental clinic for the past six months, and tried to hold back her tears.
After all, in a place like a pawn shop, you are locked in a small dark room every day, not to mention food, and you never see the light at all.
Even if you become a slave, at least you can see the light of day again and not be bound by constraints.
The woman was so excited that she immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Chaoge.
Chaoge asked Liu He to help her up, only to find that the girl was so happy that she was already in tears.
Chaoge didn't expect that his unintentional action would make her so grateful.
"The young lady doesn't mind your ordinary looks. Stay by her side and serve her well."
"Yes, I will!"
Then, the people selected by Chaoge and General Zhu paid the silver, transferred the indentures, and went directly out of the city with General Zhu to see the farm.
After leaving the yard and looking at the carriage pulled out by the third brother, Chaoge couldn't help but think of Jun Yumo again.
"Isn't this carriage your master's? Doesn't he need it when he goes to the capital?"
"The master asked Mo Qi to deliver the carriage from Yunjia Village. This carriage was found for you, Madam.
Madam is pregnant, so she will naturally feel more comfortable when traveling."
"Um."
Nodding slightly, Chaoge got on the carriage.
Everything familiar in the carriage made her recall every little detail of her time with Jun Yumo.
If I had known that we were going to be separated soon, shouldn't I have accepted him sooner, so that they would have more memories?
"What are your names?"
Liu He had taken the two little girls who had just been bought to wash up and change into fresh and clean clothes.
After this tidying up, it feels much better.
Hearing Chaoge's question, the two girls knelt down immediately. Chaoge frowned when he saw them kneeling so quickly.
"No need to kneel down to answer, stand up and speak."
At this time, the carriage started to move slowly, and the two girls felt a little restrained.
"Please give me a name, Miss."
Chaoge thought about it and since these two people would follow him in the future and were not like Liu He and the others, he gave them two names.
Chaoge looked at the darker-skinned girl and said, "Your name is Ziping, then your name is Zisu."
"Thank you for the name, Miss."
“Since I have given you names, I think you understand my intentions.
From now on, you two are mine.
Everything is based on me, and I will not listen to anyone else except me.
Do you understand? "
"We understand, the young lady is the most important thing."
After saying that, Chaoge looked at the dark and thin Ziping and asked, "Besides some boxing and kicking skills, what else can you do?"
"To answer my lady, I can do Qinggong, archery, darts, and I can read."
When Chaoge heard this, he was satisfied.
"What about you?"
"In reply to the young lady, in addition to accounting and keeping accounts, I can also do needlework and understand some business methods."
Chaoge nodded: "You are all clever people. I just thought you heard that I am pregnant now, so there are many things that you have to be careful about."
"yes!"
The carriage wobbled out of the city and in less than a quarter of an hour arrived at the farm that Zhu Da had mentioned.
Chaoge really didn't expect that this farm would be so close to the county town.
Looking at the flat land, Chaoge understood why the seller offered a high price of seven taels of silver per acre.
The carriage entered the farm. It was already early winter and the weather was cool, which was a rare leisure time.
The farmhands or tenant farmers who had been busy in the fields all year round also had a rare chance to rest.
I occasionally weed and water the vegetables, but there's nothing else too busy.
I've looked at the fields. Since the rice was harvested in autumn, wheat and other crops were just planted in early winter, and the growth is not very good yet.
But I have to say that the environment around these fields is really good.
There are no mountains around, it is almost all flat land, and there is a small river flowing into the village, so irrigation is not a problem.
Then, Zhu Da took Chaoge to the farm of the former owner.
Ordinary manors are similar to the courtyards of landlords in the early Republic of China. They are not as elaborate as the mansions in the city, but are designed for practicality.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they got off the carriage, they heard the crying of women and children in the yard.
This was accompanied by a man's curses and the muffled sound of fists hitting the body.
Chaoge frowned, guessing that someone inside was probably committing domestic violence.
