At this moment, Li Zhiwei arrived at the brokerage firm with Qinghua and Qingyue.
"Miss, are you looking to buy a maid or a servant?" Soon, a man came out, bowing, and asked Li Zhi with a smile.
"I'd like a few maids who know some skills, and if there are any suitable servants, that would be fine too," Li Zhiwei said gently.
"Oh, Miss, you've come to the right place! We just got a new batch of employees here, I'll have them come to see you right away." The broker's boss smiled broadly.
The brokerage owner had a chair brought over and then quickly brought the person up.
Qinghua and Qingyue, who were standing to the side, didn't say much, but simply stood protectively by Li Zhiwei's side.
The brokerage owner soon brought up ten girls who were about fifteen or sixteen years old.
"Miss, how about these few?" the broker asked Li Zhiwei with a smile.
"Please introduce yourselves and what your talents are," Li Zhiwei asked, looking at the group of people who were all rather thin.
The people below were somewhat at a loss.
Several young maids had just been sold to the brokerage firm. They didn't know that being a maid in a wealthy family required talent.
But they can't do anything.
"This servant, Xiuhe, can read!" At this moment, a maid stepped forward with a smug look on her face.
She had just noticed that the young lady in front of her was dressed in an extraordinary manner, and must come from a wealthy family. If she could be bought by this young lady and become her personal maid, her good days would surely begin. Moreover, Xiuhe believed that she was quite beautiful, and if the young lady got married in the future, she would surely promote a few maids from her side to become her uncle's concubines.
Perhaps, in time, she can even escape her slave status and become a master.
Thinking of this, Xiuhe put on a well-behaved and sensible demeanor again.
Li Zhiwei frowned. She had just seen the smugness in Xiuhe's eyes.
She has no shortage of maids like that.
She does want someone who is obedient and well-behaved, but she doesn't like someone with too many thoughts.
"This servant is Feng Wu, this servant...this servant knows how to use an abacus!" After saying this, Feng Wu lowered her head again, somewhat embarrassed.
Her father was originally an accountant, but unfortunately, he contracted an illness. In order to pay for her father's treatment, she voluntarily sold herself into slavery.
At this moment, she desperately hoped to be noticed by this young lady, so that she could earn some money for her father's medicine when she had a monthly allowance.
Upon hearing this, Li Zhiwei thought, "It's good that he can do accounting."
However, Li Zhiwei didn't say anything, after all, there were ten people in total.
She wanted to see the others.
“This servant is Chun Ya, this servant is very strong, and this servant can learn what this servant doesn’t know!” When Chun Ya mentioned that she was very strong, Xiu He laughed out with a mocking expression.
Chun Ya blushed with embarrassment.
She was strong, but she also ate a lot. After her parents died, her brother and sister-in-law disliked her for eating too much, so they sold her to a brokerage firm.
She wasn't afraid of doing a lot of work; she was just afraid of going hungry. She had been at the brokerage for several days and hadn't had a proper meal yet.
Finally, Li Zhiwei chose from these ten people: Feng Wu, who was good at accounting; Chun Ya, who was strong; Qiu Yue, who could make pastries; Du Juan, who knew how to make incense; Liu Zhi, who knew medicine; and Cui Er, who was good at needlework.
"Why should I?" Xiuhe, the first to stand up, asked Li Zhiwei unwillingly.
In what way is she inferior to these people?
That Cui'er, with such an ugly mark on her face, was chosen by this young lady. I'm so good-looking, why didn't she choose her?
"Just because you're standing here now," Li Zhiwei said sarcastically, looking at the person in front of her.
What would you do with someone like that?
