Song Qiu made a note of it, thanked Song Wenzhi, and didn't stay long. He left the drug store and only went to Pingkangfang.
"Okay, let's go have a bowl of wontons first, and then go to Zeng's house."
Aling followed behind the whole time, quietly and not saying much. Only when he heard that it was time to eat, he grinned, "Okay! I want to eat two bowls!"
When Song Qiu heard this, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. Even though Al-Ling was thinner than her, he still had a lot of appetite.
People say that a grown-up boy will live in poverty, but Al-Ling, a girl, is not built for her.
She has already seen it at home these days.
But being able to eat is a blessing, so she thinks that A Ling is growing taller. After all, boxing every day is not just for fun. If it comes to physical strength, she is not inferior to A Ling's two mouthfuls.
"Okay, I'll order you two bowls!"
The two of them arrived at Pingkangfang from Changxingfang, found a wonton stall and sat down.
After eating the wontons, we walked along the river bank to the end of the bridge.
When they reached the end, Song Qiu discovered a house at the end. Sure enough, the name "Zeng House" was hanging on the door. He thought this was a good place.
He stepped forward and knocked on the door. After a while, the door opened from the inside. An old woman with neatly combed hair and neatly dressed poked her head out. Seeing two little girls outside, she said first: "This is the Zeng Family Dental Shop.
What's wrong, little girl?"
Song Qiu looked at her dress and guessed that she might be Zeng Yapo, so he said, "Is it Zeng Yapo? I plan to buy two people, and I heard that the people here are good, so I came over to have a look."
Zeng Yapo originally thought that they were looking in the wrong place, or that they were from someone selling themselves. After all, looking at the clothes she was wearing, she didn't think she was a maid from a certain family. The materials were ordinary, and she could tell that the family was not very good.
In her dental shop, there are very few items that come from outside. Most of them are sold from poor families in Panshi Town who cannot make a living.
They are all innocent people who can be counted from where they came.
She has trained her well and made it available to those in need in the town.
It is precisely because of the innocent origin that it makes people want to buy it. Otherwise, no one would want to buy that troublesome person back, right?
She's not bragging, the rules taught by her Zeng Yapo are not bad. Who in Panshi Town doesn't recognize her Zeng Yapo?
These thoughts only happened in a moment. Zeng Yapo quickly came back to her senses and said, "Are you here to buy someone? That girl, you have found the right place. Come in quickly!"
Zeng Yapo didn't look down on Song and Qiu because of their attire. She always did business in the same way. She politely invited people to sit in the main hall, asked people to serve tea, and started asking questions.
"I wonder, girl, what kind of thing do you want to buy? A young maid, a woman or a mother-in-law? And a young and strong one, someone who can make tea, embroider, make snacks, cook, read and plan.
We have them all in our dental shop."
Song Qiu just walked in and looked around. Except for the person who served tea just now, she didn't see anyone in the front house. She guessed that everyone was staying in the backyard.
Hearing Zeng Yapo ask this again, she felt that it was good. She told the buyer's requirements so that they could screen the qualified people and let her decide. Otherwise, everyone would come out and it would be easy if there were too many people.
Dizzying.
Isn’t this Yapo the one who knows these people best?
She nodded slightly and said her plan, "I want a woman who can work well in the kitchen, and a smarter man, preferably a stronger one, and a young man who can do some boxing."
There’s nothing better than being good at kung fu, but of course, it’s best if you can also read and write and have an abacus.”
When Zeng Yapo heard her request, she really looked at her twice. It sounds like she was going to open a tavern?
It's easy for a woman who knows how to work in the kitchen. She can count a dozen here, and there are also smarter boys. But this requires skills in fists and feet, and can read and calculate. A few days earlier, she would have only been able to do it.
I can shake my head now.
But now.
Zeng Yapo thought about the man who had just transferred to her place two days ago. She didn't want to accept it at first, but the goods in the hands of an old acquaintance were thrown to her, and it would be bad not to accept them.
It might be a little difficult to sell this person in a place like Panshi Town. She was worried about how to get rid of this person, but unexpectedly someone asked.
Zeng Yapo's mind was spinning very fast. She was trustworthy and would not deliberately fool people. She looked at Song Qiu and said, "I think you want the one with the best cooking skills. I happen to have three women in my hands. They
They're all pretty good, and there's also this clever boy who can name a few for you, who can even read and do math with some boxing skills..."
Song Qiu didn't know the market situation of the dental shop here, so he thought it might be a bit difficult to have both physical skills and literacy.
"No? Or maybe you can only do boxing and kicking." Literacy is secondary, she mainly wants someone who can fight.
When Zeng Yapo heard this, she thought it through. This girl would like to find someone who is good at boxing and kicking.
Then maybe it won't be a big problem.
"It's hard to find people who are good at boxing and kicking. Generally, people in Yaxing rarely buy and sell like this. Girl, if you had come a few days earlier, I wouldn't have been able to find you. But, as for what happened two days ago, I'm here
If you take one, you can actually box and kick, and you can read."
"This is the person. I need to tell you the truth to the girl. You can think about it again. This person is not from our Panshi Town, but from Dongling County. The original owner of the family committed something, and everyone here will be punished.
After selling it, he moved it around in many places, and finally it fell into my hands."
"I think he is good at boxing and kicking, and he is also literate. He used to be a nurse in the master's family. He was injured once, and there is a scar on the left side of his face. It looks a bit scary, so it has never been sold."
Most people would not buy such a person.
That's why Zeng Yapo said that he would leave it in her hands. She thought that in a few months, no one would care about him, so she could only bring this person to her as a gatekeeper and keep it for her own use. It can't be in vain.
Just leave it for dry rice, right?
When Song Qiu heard this, he didn't think there was anything wrong with the scar on his face. The protector had been injured, which proved that he was loyal, good at martial arts, and literate. He was hard to find, so he couldn't let it go casually.
"Then please ask Zeng Yapo to call out all the people you mentioned. I will take a look at it myself before making a decision."
Zeng Yapo agreed, asked Song Qiu to wait, then got up and went out.
Not long after, when I came in again, there were seven or eight people behind me.
Song Qiu glanced over and without paying special attention, he immediately saw a big man standing out among the crowd.
This man was in his thirties, about eight feet tall, somewhat swarthy, and with his head lowered, she couldn't see his face clearly, but she could already clearly see a half-finger-long scar on the left cheekbone.
It's okay and not that scary.
I guess some people have high standards and cannot tolerate flaws in people's faces.
"Girl, according to your requirements, the suitable ones are all here." As Zeng Yapo said, she sat down and asked the people who came in to raise their heads, leaving Song Qiu to choose with his own eyes.
