Li Wendao: "Yes, it's the Lin family. The master told you this, right?"
Jiang Zhiyue did not explain that Ouyang Ming had not told her these things. These were all based on the memories before coming here.
But Jiang Zhiyue was still a little confused about Li Wen's statement that Ouyang Ming had no money. Ouyang Ming was naturally not the kind of person who had money and could not even feed his soldiers.
So there can only be one possibility, and that is that there is really not enough money.
However, the original book said that after Ouyang Ming escaped the pursuit of the imperial court, he secretly took over many profitable businesses after he was almost healed from his injuries.
Although the fate of this life is different, this person's thoughts should not change much.
Ouyang Ming should have many other ways to make money besides the bookstore she knew. So what's going on?
Before Jiang Zhiyue asked, Li Wen explained to himself: "Actually, it's not that we don't have enough money. Miss Jiang doesn't know how to stay in this stable place. There is less food on the market and the price of food has soared.
Even if you have money and want to buy it, you can't."
"Miss Jiang also knows that there are many of us. In order to keep all the brothers full, we can only buy the old grain as soon as possible. As for vegetables, meat, etc., we can save as much as we can, as long as we are full."
Jiang Zhiyue nodded and asked, "What are the prices of various grains on the market now?"
Li Wen told all the information he knew in detail, Jiang Zhiyue just remembered what Li Wen said in her mind.
After a while, the three of them arrived in the town. Jiang Zhiyue first took them to the grain store in the town to check the situation.
The situation is just as Li Wen said, the price of food has gone up.
Jiang Zhiyue didn't buy any grain either. After asking about the price, she walked out of the grain store.
The waiter in the back muttered behind him: "Hey, you are dressed decently. After asking around for the price, I didn't even buy a pound of grain."
Li Wen followed Jiang Zhiyue and asked, "Miss Jiang, where are we going?"
Jiang Zhiyue walked in the direction in her memory and said, "Find someone to buy a few men and go back."
Li Wendao: "Miss Jiang, do you want to hire people to do things? You can dispatch the people on the mountain as you like."
Jiang Zhiyue glanced at him and said, "Buy a few people to go back and help with cooking and washing clothes. Also, buy a few people to look after the house and care for the home. We won't need the manpower from the mountain."
Her mother, second aunt and third aunt all arranged things to do in the workshop. After working in the workshop for a day, they had to do laundry and cooking when they got home, which was really tiring.
Therefore, it is easier to buy a few people and go back.
Seeing Jiang Zhiyue say this, Li Wen said nothing more.
On the other hand, Sanlang, who had been following him silently, felt a little confused when he heard what Jiang Zhiyue said about the people on the mountain.
However, he didn't ask any more questions. Jiang Zhiyue warned him before setting off that he should never make a mistake while outside.
However, he still asked about buying a person: "Sister, where can I live when I buy a person? Although our family has many houses, there are not many empty rooms."
When Mr. Bai came, the last empty room was gone.
Jiang Zhiyue thought for a moment, and the idea of buying someone came to her suddenly, and she really didn't prepare a place for them to live.
She said: "Now is the hottest time. After we buy the people back, we will first build a few thatched houses, and then build a yard next to our house for them to live in."
This time Jiang Zhiyue plans to buy two women who cook, and then buy a few that look like they can look after homes and homes.
Passing by a vegetable selling place, Jiang Zhiyue first asked Sanlang to buy some vegetables and meat.
While several people were talking, they had already arrived at Yaxing.
Jiang Zhiyue led the two of them inside. Guarding them was a middle-aged man who looked shrewd.
Yaren hurriedly came up to us and said enthusiastically: "A few of our guests want to buy someone."
Li Wen answered: "Yes, bring you people out quickly and show us girls."
"Okay, sir, please come in."
The Yaman happily brought the people inside, and then brought out a whole yard of people. These were all people who had signed the deed of betrayal.
All of them had a look of despair on their faces, as if they had no hope for the future.
"Girl, let's see if there is anything you like. Many of them have worked in wealthy families before. Once you buy them, you can start working directly without you having to worry about training.'
Jiang Zhiyue looked at the people standing in the yard and asked, "Do you think you are good at cooking?"
People standing in the courtyard look at me and I look at you.
Do you think your craftsmanship is good? Why don't you just say it yourself? It's better to be bought and stay in this dental shop.
Immediately, several people stood up, a total of three women and one man.
Several women's eyes rolled around, but Jiang Zhiyue did not make a sound.
She looked at the Ya man and asked, "Do you have a kitchen here?"
Yaren said: "Yes, yes! Girl, do you want them to show off your skills on the spot?"
Jiang Zhiyue looked at the women with wandering eyes and said, "There is no basis for what you say, so it's better to let them all show their abilities. It also saves me having to buy them back and sell them again."
As soon as Jiang Zhiyue said this, one woman became a little frustrated.
There are no women in this world who can't cook, but the food they cook is just enough to make people hungry, and it's definitely not very delicious.
Jiang Zhiyue motioned to Sanlang and asked him to take out the prepared vegetables and meat, and Yaren also led everyone to the kitchen.
In addition to vegetables and meat, Jiang Zhiyue also asked Sanlang to buy a lot of seasonings on the way here, and now they are all neatly placed on the table.
Jiang Zhiyue said to the four people who stood up: "The ingredients are all there, just cook what you are good at. There are enough seasonings, so don't skimp on them."
There were three pots in the kitchen and one pot standing in the yard, just enough for the four people. The man and one of the women both washed their hands and rolled up their sleeves before taking the ingredients.
The other two people directly picked up the ingredients on the table and started working on them.
Jiang Zhiyue looked at the two people who knew how to wash their hands before cooking, and she already gave them points in her heart.
The hands of the woman with round eyes just now were still dirty. Although the hands of the other woman were relatively clean, her dusty sleeves rubbed against the meat when she picked it up, and her fingernails were also covered in dirt.
Seeing this situation, Sanlang wanted to remind them to wash their hands first, but Jiang Zhiyue stopped him.
No one said anything after that, they all focused on watching the four people cooking.
In fact, in the end, everyone's eyes were attracted to the man who stood up.
His cooking movements are smooth and smooth, and the vegetables and meat slices are evenly thin and thick. He moves quickly. Just looking at his movements makes you think he is a good cook.
The other three people are not slow at cooking. Two of the women cook at about the same speed, and there is no fault in their movements.
On the contrary, the woman with her eyes wandering around saw the meat on the table, so she grabbed a large piece of meat and put it on her chopping board. Her mouth watered when she saw it.
She took the knife and cut it randomly a few times. The pieces of meat were large and small, and looked messy. Then she poured them into the pot, and put some of the seasonings on the table into the pot.
.
After a while, the dishes prepared by the four people were brought out and placed on the table in front of Jiang Zhiyue. The last woman who brought out the dishes was so greedy that she drooled when she smelled the meat on the plate.
But fortunately, she didn't forget that Jiang Zhiyue was here to buy someone. She reluctantly brought the meat over, but her eyes were staring at the fragrant meat and vegetables with salivation.
The fang man looked at her embarrassing look, walked around behind her and hit her with the whip in his hand, and glared at her to remind her when she looked over.
Jiang Zhiyue tasted each of them. When she tasted the food cooked by the man, her eyes narrowed because of the delicious food.
One of the women saw Jiang Zhiyue's expression when she tasted the man's dish, and guessed that the food she cooked was definitely not as good as that man's to the girl's liking, so her expression became a little gloomy.
Jiang Zhiyue only tasted the chopsticks for once before she stopped, looked at the man and said, "You are good at craftsmanship, what is your name?"
The man cupped his hands in front of Jiang Zhiyue and said, "Little man Chen Quan." After saying that, he stood aside quietly. Jiang Zhiyue said, "This one is called Chen Quan, and I want that one, what's your name?"
Jiang Zhiyue pointed at the gloomy-looking woman and said.
Although the woman's cooking was not as complete as Chen's, she still had all the colors, flavors, and flavors. There were many people in the family, and it was not enough to buy just one cook.
The woman was stunned for a moment before she realized that Jiang Zhiyue was talking about her, and quickly replied: "My name is Tian Qiu."
"It's just Chen Quan and Tian Qiu. If you have some skills, you can also come forward and recommend yourself."
After hearing Jiang Zhiyue's words, Tian Qiuxin knelt down in front of Jiang Zhiyue and said, "Please, Master, buy our whole family."
Before Yaren could react and stop her, she added very quickly: "My man is very good at driving a car. Although my son is young, he used to be the master's bookboy. He knows a lot of words and does odd jobs.
He also moves quickly."
The Yaman hesitated to speak. Jiang Zhiyue looked at him and said, "What do you want to say?"
Yaren was afraid that if Jiang Zhiyue agreed to Tian Qiu's request, she would not even want Tian Qiu after looking at him for a while, so she could only say: "Tian Qiu's man is injured. It's hard to say whether he can survive."
Tian Qiu knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and soon there was blood on his forehead.
"Please, Miss, buy us all. Our family will definitely be loyal to you."
Yaren was a little embarrassed. He looked at Jiang Zhiyue and asked: "Miss, what do you think? If you take that man away with you, I will give it to you for free. But their son is indeed smart. If the girl wants it, she has to press
Pay the price.”
Hearing this, Jiang Zhiyue said: "Why don't you see the child? Take me to see you first and then I will make a decision." Yaren leaned over and made a gesture of invitation, and took Jiang Zhiyue to the woodshed in the yard behind. "That man suffered
He is still sick after being injured, and I am afraid that he will pass on to others after his illness has passed, so I will let him live here first."
Jiang Zhiyue didn't comment and just motioned for him to open the door.
