Chapter 13 Recruitment
"How many people are there?"
"Including me, there are nine in total."
Lin Miaofu thought for a moment and asked, "I'm here to help you rescue them all. How should you repay me the ninety-one thousand taels of silver?"
"I will swear allegiance to you to the death."
Jiang Huai put away the rogue, with hope in his eyes.
"Okay, I believe you." Lin Miaofu turned her gaze to Xiaolian: "How many banknotes do you have on hand?"
"Master!" Xiaolian gritted her teeth, her eyes were very worried, she felt in her heart that the lady had been deceived.
"Say it."
"Not that much, I need to go to the bank to exchange the banknote."
"Then you go make arrangements." Lin Miaofu said casually: "Give it to him tomorrow."
"Sir, he is a liar. This hundred thousand taels of silver must have been wasted."
"It's ninety-one thousand taels. Whether he is a liar or not, you have to pay the money first before you can make a conclusion." Lin Miaofu laughed and teased: "Don't worry, my taste is still good."
Knowing what kind of temper his wife had, Xiaolian stopped trying to persuade her and just glared at Jiang Huai with hatred.
There were knives in those eyes.
As long as Jiang Huai ran away with money alone, she would kill him.
"Master, relax and just wait."
After agreeing to meet again here tomorrow, Lin Miaofu left some loose money for Jiang Huai and asked him to take care of it before returning to the general's residence.
The East Market on the other side became lively again.
A young man in fine clothes walked over with an attendant.
The people selling themselves on both sides couldn't help but whisper to each other.
"It's rare to see such a young and handsome young master in the past, but today we promised to have two of them at once."
"Yes, at first glance they are either rich or noble. If they can be bought, they will definitely live a good life in the future."
"Your Majesty, my men have searched around and found no one who matches that person's characteristics. Is our information wrong?"
The handsome young master frowned and said, "How could the news about the fifth uncle's arrival be wrong?"
"Then maybe you haven't come yet?"
"If you go and inquire more carefully, it could be that it has been bought by someone."
"Ah?" The man seemed to have remembered something and said hurriedly: "There was indeed someone buying and selling slaves just now. It seemed that a young master bought a beggar back for a thousand taels of silver."
"It seems that we still missed it. Go and check. I want to know who would spend a thousand taels of silver to buy a beggar back."
Xiaolian held the money box in her arms and struggled without giving up: "Madam, do you really want to give it to him?"
"Reluctant?" Lin Miaofu curled her lips: "Do you know that making friends is like doing business, there are always many risks."
"But you obviously bought him and he is your servant. How can he be your friend?"
"Servants are humans too and can also be friends." Lin Miaofu chuckled.
"What's more, I have given him my body deed, and he is now a free man."
No matter why Jiang Huai was forced to become a slave, Lin Miaofu was his savior.
Even if you don't get his allegiance in the future, you can still be friends with him.
At the worst, if you encounter difficulties in the future, you can use this kindness to ask him to save your life.
Even if Jiang Huai doesn't have this ability, then the person he will seek refuge with in the future also has this ability. After all, he will be the most powerful official in the future!
"I just don't think it's worth it!" Xiao Lian felt a little sad.
"It's worth it." Lin Miaofu suddenly asked, "Do you have someone you like?"
In her last life, Xiaolian's husband was carefully selected by her and he was a scholar. After they failed to get married, that man was chosen. However, although this son was a scholar, he was a snobbery.
He looked down upon Xiaolian's background and divorced her on the grounds that she was jealous and unfilial.
Lin Miaofu took Xiaolian back to her home, but Xiaolian committed suicide within a month after returning home.
Originally, Lin Miaofu thought that Xiaolian committed suicide because she couldn't bear to think about it. Before she died, she found out that she was killed by the jackal mother and her son.
"what?"
Xiaolian didn't react for a moment, why did the lady suddenly ask herself, her mind didn't turn around, but her face was already blushing!
"Madam, why do you ask this in such a large crowd?"
This is a bit angry.
Lin Miaofu just laughed: "Why are you ashamed? I am married after all. Do you still plan to stay by my side for the rest of your life?"
While the two were talking, there was a knock on the door.
When he saw the two girls when he entered the door, Jiang Huai couldn't help but froze. He thought he had gone to the wrong room, and immediately handed over his hands: "Sorry, I seem to have gone to the wrong room..."
"Jiang Huai, you are not wrong." Lin Miaofu still had a faint smile on her face. Xiaolian blushed and stood aside without saying a word.
Hearing his name, Jiang Huai stood still and looked at the speaker's face carefully: "It's you, you are a girl!"
"Last time I went out in men's clothing, I didn't inform you. I hope you won't be offended."
"You should be more cautious when going out." Jiang Huai said politely.
If the other party is a man, he can act rogue.
But he didn't expect that the person who saved him turned out to be a girl.
This made Jiang Huai hesitate.
How should a girl herself repay her?
He couldn't even pay back the nearly one hundred thousand taels of silver. How could he commit himself to marrying this girl?
but……
He originally thought about it yesterday. If the young master could really give him 90,000 taels of silver so that he could redeem his brothers, he would take his brothers and join him as his bodyguards. , whether it’s a hanger-on or not, in short, there is a place to stay.
But now, the young master has transformed into a girl.
What kind of escort does a girl need?
This kind of kindness is hard to repay.
"Xiaolian, give him the banknote." Seeing that Jiang Huai was also a little embarrassed, Lin Miaofu asked Xiaolian to put the banknote on the table: "This is a banknote of 90,000 taels, which should be enough for you to save your life." friends."
"It's just that if I gave you this money for free, you wouldn't feel at ease holding it."
Lin Miaofu tapped her fingers gently on the table and looked at Jiang Huai with a good look.
Jiang Huai naturally knows that there is no free pie in the world: "What do you want me to do, girl? Just tell me."
"There is a village of mine in the eastern suburbs outside the city. My tenants live in it. If you successfully rescue the people, you can take them to live there."
Lin Miaofu told her arrangement, took a sip of tea and looked at Jiang Huai.
"What I have to do is actually very simple. My situation is not very good now. I want to hire a group of guards, but I won't choose you. I have been in that slave market. Maybe you know the secrets and help me choose some guards. Bar."
"One hundred thousand taels of silver just for me to choose a few guards for you?" Jiang Huai's eyes widened in disbelief.
Lin Miaofu smiled and poured a basin of cold water on him: "Of course not."
