Chapter 147 Buying People (2)
"Since you have come to our place, Madam, you must know that we are the largest brokerage in Datong County. Whether it is the number or the quality of our servants, they are absolutely top-notch."
As the number one in Datong County, Manager Sun cannot be said to be unconfident, and they do have the confidence.
"Okay, then show us the people."
Shen Xiangwan was about to stand up, and Steward Sun hurriedly asked, "What kind of servants does Madam need?"
Only by knowing her needs can he focus on introducing them.
"This is it!"
Shen Xiangwan pretended to be silent, and after a moment he said, "Four cooks, either male or female, as long as they are good at cooking, ten servants who are responsible for cleaning, also either male or female, two women who do laundry, a nanny around 30 years old, preferably someone who knows some etiquette, a maid between 13 and 20 years old, and one or two boys between 4 and 5 years old. In addition, I also need a group of boys and girls between 15 and 20 years old, no limit on the number, as long as I like them."
The nanny and the maid were prepared for Zhao Yuping and her daughter, while the boy was bought back to play with the little cub.
"what?"
Even though she was well-informed, Manager Sun couldn't help but feel a little surprised. How could she be sure of the number of boys and girls between the ages of fifteen and twenty that she wanted?
"so much?"
Not only him, Wei Chengyi was also a little surprised, not to mention Yuan Xiu and the others. They never dreamed that their wives would be so generous.
"Let's talk about it when we get back."
Turning her head to meet his gaze, Shen Xiangwan reached out and patted his hand.
"Ah."
With Wei Chengyi's cleverness, how could he not guess that there must be an important hidden secret?
He didn't feel conflicted, but secretly looked forward to what kind of surprise his little rascal would prepare for him.
"It's getting late, Manager Sun, should we go see the people?"
After pacifying Wei Chengyi, Shen Xiangwan turned to Manager Sun again. She knew why he was so shocked. As the largest pawnbroker in Datong County, they had at least hundreds of slaves, and among them, boys and girls between the ages of fifteen and twenty must be a considerable number. But he seemed to have overlooked that what she said was that it was okay to take anyone who pleased her, not that she really wanted all of them.
"Everyone please follow me."
Coming back to his senses, Manager Sun stood up and made a gesture of invitation, his attitude undoubtedly became more enthusiastic, this was a big deal.
Shen Xiangwan and Wei Chengyi looked at each other, ignored the attention from the people around them, held each other's hands tightly and stood up one after another. Led by Manager Sun, they entered the backyard. Compared with the previous shops which were separated, the backyard was connected. There was a large yard in the middle and several exquisite pavilions with several sets of tables and chairs inside. They should be provided for the guests who bought slaves or livestock to rest.
In addition, there is a barn in the backyard, which contains all kinds of livestock such as horses, cattle, and sheep. On the other side are two rows of houses that are about the same size as the barns, which are full of slaves. Other managers are leading a few people to select and sell people. In this era, human trafficking is legal and compliant, and their value is often not as much as that of a horse or an ox.
"Please wait here for a moment."
After placing them at a table and chairs in the pavilion, Manager Sun turned around and went to the house. The waiter quickly brought them tea and snacks.
"What a beautiful woman."
While looking around, Shen Xiangwan's sight swept to another pavilion, where a woman was lazily sitting. She was very beautiful, and seemed to be around twenty years old at most. Her every move revealed her charm and seduction. Even though she was used to seeing handsome men and beautiful women, she had to admit that she was really beautiful, pure, sexy and very alluring.
"Ok?"
Wei Chengyi raised his eyebrows in confusion and followed her line of sight: "Is she pretty?"
She is indeed pretty, but she is far inferior to his little scoundrel.
"Isn't it beautiful?"
Retracting her gaze and meeting his eyes, Shen Xiangwan curled her lips and asked back.
"Not even one ten-thousandth of you."
Looking at her deeply, Wei Chengyi said seriously, "You are a beauty in the eyes of a lover."
Shen Xiangwan was amused by him. She knew that she was pretty, but to say that the woman was not even one-tenth as pretty as her was too exaggerated. Apart from Wei Chengyi, she had never praised anyone for being pretty in her life.
"Perhaps, to me, you will always be the most beautiful."
From past lives to this life, she is the only woman who has entered his heart, and he can only see her beauty.
"Why are you so sweet today? Did you eat honey?"
Raising his eyebrows, Shen Xiangwan's smile became even brighter. Those words were clearly greasy, but coming out of his mouth, they sounded very pleasant. Shen Xiangwan only felt waves of sweetness in her heart. No matter whether it was true or false, she enjoyed it.
"Not really."
Knowing that she thought he was just saying sweet words, Wei Chengyi did not argue. As long as he knew how serious he was, that would be enough.
"No, I don't want to go to the brothel, let me go, let me go..."
A sharp roar mixed with fear and trembling sounded. Shen Xiangwan frowned almost unnoticeably. He looked up and saw a girl who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, with delicate features and barely considered pretty. She suddenly pushed everyone away and stumbled towards them: "Help, save me, please save me, I..."
The moment she saw them, the girl's eyes suddenly lit up and she rushed straight towards Wei Chengyi, as if she wanted to throw herself into his arms.
"presumptuous!"
"what···"
Before Wei Chengyi could react, Yuan Xiu, who was standing behind them, took a step forward, raised his arm and pushed out a palm wind. The girl was blown away before she could get close. She was so frightened that she let out an even sharper and piercing scream, and many people frowned when they heard it.
"Catch her."
After a brief moment of shock, the manager of the dental clinic gave an order and several men rushed forward.
“No, let me go, let me go...ah..."
"Clap clap clap!"
The woman wanted to struggle, but the angry guy slapped her several times, forcing her to stop.
"Bring back."
The woman who was previously sitting in the pavilion walked out slowly. At this moment, her brows were slightly frowned, and she looked a little unhappy. Even so, her charm and beauty were hard to ignore.
"Yes."
The two strong men following behind her took the woman from the waiter's hands and pretended to push her away.
"Save me, save me..."
When they passed by them, the woman with a red and swollen face struggled violently again, looking at Wei Chengyi for help, completely ignoring Shen Xiangwan's existence.
"Tsk tsk...Brother Yi, why don't you go and save the damsel in distress?"
With two snorts of surprise, Shen Xiangwan winked at Wei Chengyi, he really was a lucky guy.
"Don't make trouble."
Reaching out and holding her hand, Wei Chengyi's eyes were full of helplessness. This kind of thing was not something he could control.
