After seeing Qiu Laoquan's actions, Su Tong couldn't help but be surprised. He looked at him for a while before frowning.
"Uncle Qiu, what are you doing?"
Qiu Laoquan said respectfully: "My boss, when I was young, I was hanging out in the martial arts world. I always thought I could get ahead. But after more than ten years of hanging around, I still achieved nothing. Instead, I was seriously injured and my cultivation level dropped. In the end, I had to carry a pair of
The children live in seclusion in the village."
Speaking of this, he smiled bitterly and said: "But he was still bullied by the villagers because he was not a local. Originally, the old man thought that he would be able to tolerate it and get over it, but in the end he still had to go out and wander again.
Old man, I have no hope in this life, but I can't worry about my son and daughter. The only thing I hope for is to settle down. However, apart from farming and some superficial skills, the old man's family of three have no other skills, so they hope that their employer will not give up.
, take me in."
After finishing speaking, Qiu Laoquan raised his head and looked at Su Tong eagerly.
Su Tong was silent in thought. After these days of contact, he found that although Qiu Laoquan liked to take advantage of small things, he was generally a good person. At least he never left his teammates and ran away alone.
And when he first arrived in another world, many things happened with a blind eye. When he encountered something, there was no one to ask him. Qiu Laoquan was also an old man. As the old saying goes, there is an old man in the family.
Having a treasure by your side to give you advice at any time can at least save you a lot of detours.
Thinking of this, Su Tong nodded slowly: "Since Uncle Qiu wants to help me manage the shop, I am naturally willing. Let's do this. After the shop opens in a few days, you will be responsible for managing the shop. Brothers Dezhu and Dezhu
My sister will help you together. As for your salary, it will be tentatively decided every month..."
"etc……"
Qiu Laoquan suddenly said excitedly: "Since the old man and his family have taken refuge with you, how can they still get a salary? That is the money only those street workers receive. The old man wants to be your domestic servant, and he must not receive this kind of salary."
Money."
"Hey... you are not planning to help me, but you want to be my servant?"
Su Tong was dumbfounded. Although he had just arrived in another world, he already had a general understanding of the relationships in this world.
In this world, the so-called helpers are actually temporary workers. Most of them are coolies on the docks and on the streets. These people do not have fixed jobs and generally work odd jobs, often living without food.
The other type is permanent workers, similar to contract employees on Earth, and the other type is domestic servants.
As you can tell from the name, a domestic servant is a servant who has sold himself to his master for the rest of his life. He has to work hard for his master all his life. You have to do whatever the master asks you to do.
However, despite the fact that a domestic servant sounds bad in name, it is not that easy for ordinary people to become a domestic servant of a wealthy family.
As the saying goes, responsibilities naturally come with obligations. Once a master accepts a servant, he will be responsible for the servant for the rest of his life. You are responsible for the servant's food, clothing, housing, transportation, life, old age, illness, and death. You even have to take care of his wife.
Once you accept a warrior like Qiu Laoquan as a domestic servant, you will also need to provide him with the training resources such as body-building pills, yuan-pei pills, etc. that he needs for daily practice.
How about... looks like Alexander?
It's right to be big, so under normal circumstances, even people with a wealthy family don't dare to accept warriors as domestic servants casually, so the consumption is not ordinary.
Some people may say that a good practitioner should not become someone else's servant. Isn't this too promising?
People who say this don’t understand the sorrow of the lowest level warriors in this world. Just look at Qiu Laoquan and you will know that since he was injured more than ten years ago, he fell from an intermediate warrior to a junior warrior because he had no money to buy elixirs.
And because he was worried about the revenge of his enemies, he could only stay in Xiaoling Village and cultivate the land for more than ten years. If Qiu Dezhu hadn't killed the village chief's son this time, he wouldn't have come out.
Therefore, after Qiu Laoquan finished speaking, he did not dare to take a breath and looked at Su Tong with a worried expression, just because he was afraid that he would refuse without saying a word, in which case his old face would be completely lost.
Fortunately, after Su Tong thought for a while, he finally nodded: "Okay, since you want to be my servant, that's up to you, but we have to put the scandal first. Once you become my servant
, then you must listen to my instructions and dispatches, and you must not do anything detrimental to my interests. If you let me know that someone is cheating, then don't blame me for cleaning up the house."
"That's natural." Qiu Laoquan said seriously: "Since I have become your servant, I should naturally put the interests of the master of the family first, otherwise I would not have the dignity to stay by your side."
"Well, that's good." Su Tong added, "It's just that you become my servant, what about brother Dezhu and sister Dezhu?"
Qiu Dezhu on the side said without thinking: "Even dad is your servant, how can my brother and I be exceptions?"
"Well, that's the truth." Qiu Dezhu nodded repeatedly.
"Hey, why don't you all, your whole family depends on me."
Su Tong shook his head helplessly. In this world, he used to have enough food for one person and the whole family was not hungry. But now it is better. There are three more servants at once, and he has to find a way to feed them. Where can he reason with him?
But Su Tong also thought about it. One sheep is being driven, and three sheep are being herded. Isn't it just a little resource for cultivation? If he makes a batch of things from the earth to sell, he must be able to do a good business.
Seeing that Su Tong had agreed, the three members of Qiu Laoquan's family looked at each other and looked happy. The three of them stood in a row and bowed to Su Tong at the same time: "Qiu Laoquan (Qiu Dezhu, Qiu Dezhu) pays homage to the head of the family!"
"Okay, you all get up."
There was something unnatural on Su Tong's face. It was his first time to accept a servant, so he was not used to it for a while.
After thinking for a while, he said: "Since you have recognized me as your master, you don't need to look for a house anymore. Let's make do together here. Dezhu, if you are a girl, you will live in the west wing. Uncle Qiu and Dezhu
My brother will live in the east wing, what do you think?"
Qiu Laoquan said seriously: "Master, now that you have recognized us as your servants, you can no longer call us that. You can call me Lao Qiu. You can call me Lao Qiu, just call De Zhu by his name, but Qian Qiu
You must never call him brother again.
And in the future, if you have something to do, just give your orders and don’t need to discuss it with us. Otherwise, if word spreads, outsiders will think that we have no distinction between superiority and inferiority."
Seeing Qiu Laoquan's serious look, Su Tong was slightly startled, and then he realized that this was not the earth that claimed to be democratic and free, but an alien world from the feudal period. He could no longer use the same methods as on earth.
Do something, otherwise you will really be in trouble.
