Mr. Qian was angry with his dog legs. Wu Qingyuan didn’t know, but the Qian’s family bought a large amount of wood from Shiqiao Town and several timber merchants around Shiqiao Town. He quickly got news about that large batch of wood. The movement is not small, and it is impossible to hide it.

Finally figured out who was hiding himself behind his back, Wu Qingyuan let it go. The enemy is not terrible. What's afraid is that he doesn't even know who is making trouble for him. It is necessary to find out the opponent.

In fact, he knew something about the Qian family's actions against him this time.

Now that his own business has begun to start slowly, it is bound to compete with others, even if there is no money family, there are others who are eyeing and suppressing him, a piece of cake is so big, it will not be so easy for him to get a piece of the pie, sooner or later. Confront the big rich man who has control over the economic market within a hundred miles of Shiqiao Town.

Although there are difficulties in the road ahead, he will not just retreat like this. This year he will burn carbon, open shops, and plant fields!

This is the way to do business, there can be no competition, so Wu Qingyuan did not gritted his teeth too much in the Qian family's affairs. Instead, he developed a vigilance in his heart. It is easy to hide a spear and an arrow. He needs to prepare some self-protection. s method.

The best way for businessmen to protect themselves is to find a powerful and powerful backer, but this is not easy. Wherever a backer is so easy to find, you must carefully consider it before you can start if you really want to find it. Otherwise, you will stand in the wrong team and the powerful will fall. , He also has to suffer.

Can't find a backer for the time being, after thinking about it, Wu Qingyuan decided to buy some domestic servants back.

Domestic servants are very common in ancient large households. The servants hired with money are never reliable. In this era of strict regulations, one contract is enough to control the life and death of a person.

If the servant made a mistake, the master wouldn’t care about killing the government. On the contrary, if the servant was not obedient, he would even help the government arrest someone if he dared to run away. The servant would be dealt with with the most severe punishment. To be precise, the servant would have no life. Slave to freedom.

He needs such a group of people to help him and the nursing home to protect the safety of his family. After all, he can't always bring Amer and others by his side. There are always omissions.

Amo didn't have any opinion on the matter he wanted to buy a servant, but rather agreed very much.

They have too few family members and they have to hire people for everything. Once these helpers have something to do with their families, they can easily quit their jobs. Any secret in the family can easily be spread out. It is very inconvenient and unreliable. If there are domestic slaves, then I'm relieved a lot.

The two of them had no objection. After discussing it, the husband and the wife went out and went to Jiangyi County.

Shiqiao Town also has Yazi seller slaves, but the town is too small. These Yazi sells old ladies and women who do housework. What Wu Qingyuan wants is young and strong domestic slaves, so naturally he has to look for them in more prosperous county towns.

It’s not difficult to find a place to trade slaves. In fact, every county has a special organization, which is still approved by the government.

When Wu Qingyuan led Amo, the whole trading place was very lively. Officials guarded the earthquake field. All the teeth had an open space specially fenced off, and as the servants who were traded, they were well-regarded. , Stood there quietly and displayed like a livestock, waiting to be bought away.

These people are too poor to eat, or desperate to sell their lives. What they sell is a living contract, and they can redeem themselves in the future. Even if they are slaves, they are still civilians.

In addition to them, there are also a group of people wearing prison uniforms with their hands tied with ropes. They are court criminals. They are all reduced to the lowest bases by the government. They sell all death contracts. Once they become lowly slaves, If the master did not personally go to the yamen to carry out their status, their descendants would also become lowly slaves, unable to participate in scientific research, unable to purchase land and own private property, and would always be slaves without any free rights.

So this kind of slave is the most loyal, because the master is good, they are good, the master is not good, they and their descendants don't think about living comfortably!

What Wu Qingyuan wanted was this group of cheap slaves sold by the government.

After some selection, he finally bought 18 people, all of whom were between 15 and 25 years old and had no family members. This kind of young and strong servants who are not dragged down are the best. He also needs this kind of person.

Of course, the price of the slaves with the best conditions is naturally not low, and because they are dead bond slaves, they are sold by the government. There are 12 two to one for young people under the age of 20, and 16 to two for young people over 20. 18 people spend a total of Wu Qingyuan more than two hundred taels.

Regardless of whether the price of a servant may not be as good as an animal, the price is already very high in the slave trade, because a servant is not the same as an animal. After buying, in addition to eating and drinking, the servant also needs to wear and live, in order to win over. When the human heart is the master of the New Year, it must also be said that raising people and raising animals are completely two concepts.

So, a slave is not something you can afford to buy. Ordinary people don't want to give him a slave. Who would dare to raise one more if he can't afford it?

This price Wu Qingyuan is still within the range. In fact, he still wants to buy a few more, but the government also clearly stipulates that there is a certain number of restrictions on the purchase and possession of such young and strong slaves, and there is no market. With so many prisoners who have lost their low-ranking status, he is lucky enough to be able to buy 18 people today.

After paying the money with the government officials, changing the contract, and finally stamping a dozen slaves on the neck according to the regulations, the two talents left the trading place with more than a dozen slaves.

Because the county is far away, Wu Qingyuan did not plan to return on the same day. He took a dozen servants to buy some daily necessities that everyone would use in the future. Then he went to find an inn and rented a chase shop for one night. , This allowed the servant to stay in the inn and take Amo out to go shopping in the afternoon.

During this period of time, they have been busy with the business of the shop. They have not taken a good break alone for a long time. Even if Amo likes doing business very much, but he was nineteen years of age when he was fun, and he can follow him at this moment. Wu Qingyuan went shopping together to relax and was extremely happy.

"Brother Wu, look there and see there, juggling, we are so lucky, today is not the festival, there was juggling! Hurry up, let's go over..."

"Ahhhh, Brother Wu, look here! What kind of chicken is this? How colorful and beautiful the tail!"

"Peacock? What is a peacock? It's called a peacock? Didn't see it has holes, Brother Wu..."

"Brother Wu, let's go over there and have a look..."

As soon as he played, Amo regained his vivacious teenage nature. He pulled Wu Qingyuan here and there to see and touch. Although he had been to the county several times, he was still as rare as Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. .

Wu Qingyuan, who was originally out to stroll around and relax, couldn't help but be influenced by him. He was obviously interested in seeing an ancient county town that was not even a modern small city.

By the time the sunset came to the west, the two had already strolled around the entire county town.

"Brother Wu, I'm tired..."

The little brother who used to bear hardships and stand hard work has now been accustomed to being coquettish by overspoiled men.

"come over."

The overwhelming man will never have a lower limit. Ignoring the surprised and surprised targets around him, Wu Qingyuan squatted down and motioned to the happy and smiling young man to climb onto his back.

Seeing his movements, Amo rushed forward without awkwardness, urging "Brother Wu, let's go."

If he never dared to do this before, but now he loves the feeling of acting like a baby to Brother Wu. It’s okay. Brother Wu said, they are now husbands. Others don’t have anything to say. I’m envious. He really likes Brother Wu’s back. Look at him.

Amer lay comfortably on Wu Qingyuan’s back and squinted sweetly. Everyone I saw around couldn’t help covering their mouths and snickering. He secretly said that this must be the husband, young man, who had just married his son. It's such a passion.....

The inns in the county town are basically concentrated on one street. The two of them walked back from the street where they were playing for a certain distance. When they arrived at the inn, the evening sky was already dark.

Just when the two were about to enter the inn, they were suddenly attracted by a lively movement at the entrance of the inn.

I saw the entrance of the inn where they were resting tonight. At this moment, I don't know what the situation is full of people. Along with the chattering of the surrounding crowd, there was a vague whispering and complaining, as well as the driving sound of the inn shopkeeper.

Wu Qingyuan heard the sound a bit familiar, and Amo felt very familiar with it, so the two walked over, and when they approached the crowd, they saw that it was a little brother.

That little brother is about twenty-five and sixty-six, he is considered an older brother, but he looks very tender, looks not very old, but looks very beautiful, but at the moment the other party is doing a good job. Doesn't match his pretty face, disheveled clothes, dusty, and tears sitting on the ground crying and cursing.

No matter how the shopkeeper next to the inn drove him away, he just couldn't get up, sitting on the ground and crying, "Woo, do you guys have a conscience? My money bag was gone, my luggage was stolen, and I was still hungry for a day. I'll just sit here for a while. If I'm in the way, you still chase me away. I sit for a while and leave. I won't hinder you. Let me sit for a while, oooo, why am I so unlucky..."

"Brother Azhu?!"

When he saw the appearance of the little brother, Amer suddenly widened his eyes, Wu Qingyuan's eyelids also jumped, this little brother is not someone else, it is the flower house that he bought to help him pit Zhao Haisheng. , Xiaozhu!
