Chapter 389 Retreat to advance, whoever fools who
The mansion of the Prince of the Northern Kingdom, Luo Wuyou didn't know where it was when he first entered Yuejing, so he inevitably had to find someone to ask for directions, so he randomly pulled a passerby on the street, and the word "Prince's Mansion" was the only way to exit.
The face of the passer-by immediately changed, as if he had seen a ghost: "Young man, you want to find the prince's mansion, don't you want to call the servants? Then I advise you to quickly dismiss this idea, do you know that this prince It’s not a good thing to lose one of the family servants of the mansion. When the time comes, it’s not easy to lose a limb, and it’s a question of whether you can get out alive. If you’re not careful, it’s very likely to die!”
"Brother, it's not that serious, is it?"
The corners of Luo Wuyou's eyes twitched slightly, but the expression on his face seemed to be frightened, with a little bit of surprise and uncertainty: "Brother, I first came to Yuejing to find relatives, and the money I was carrying was also stolen by thieves, so I was penniless. Now the Prince's Mansion is recruiting people, so I just want to enter the mansion to seek a job as a servant!"
"How can you lose your life? Could this be, too, too exaggerated? Could it be that big brother is bluffing me?" Luo Wuyou had a doubtful expression.
When the man saw this, he immediately stared: "Tch, bluffing you? Who has the spare time to bluff you! You don't inquire here in Yuejing, who dares to enter the prince's mansion, don't you know the other name of that person? That is a veritable murderous maniac, but you are a fool, you still want to jump into the devil's lair."
"Come on, if you want to go then go, let me tell you, just go straight ahead in this direction, until you reach almost the end of the street, you can see it, hey, I said young man, you should think about it carefully, If it doesn't work, you can just find another errand, otherwise, you won't have time to cry." The man glanced at the tattered clothes on the boy and shook his head helplessly and walked away.
Luo Wuyou didn't delay either, and walked straight in the direction the man said. As expected, he didn't go far, and saw a majestic mansion standing in front of him.
Prince's Mansion!
It is indeed the prince's mansion. There is no other place with such a luxurious ostentation. The gate of the mansion is much more majestic than the gates of ordinary aristocratic families. The plaque on the door, the knocker on the door and the eyes of the stone lions at the gate are all shining golden. It is extremely eye-catching, and it is taken for granted that the prince of a country cannot use objects for crossing gold.
Therefore, those things are all real gold in all likelihood.
There were rows of guards standing at the gate of the mansion, all of them expressionless, and within a hundred meters of this area, there was no one, not to mention people, not even a fly or an earthworm.
Occasionally, merchants who came to deliver things parked their carriages at the back door of the Prince's Mansion, unloaded their goods in a hurry, and then left in a hurry, never staying for a moment.
Luo Wuyou stood not far from the Prince's Mansion, and observed it quietly for a while. This Prince's Mansion was really as rumored by the folks, no one dared to approach it, and there was a piece of yellow paper pasted outside the gate of the mansion. .
Its content is nothing more than a yellow list for accepting people. What puzzles Wuyou is that, as Jun Jinglan's status as the prince of a country, if there are not enough people, he can transfer from the palace or buy some slaves from the people. That is, why has it reached the point where such a publicity is needed?
This question was not answered until after she entered the mansion. At that time, even she had to admire Jun Jinglan. As expected, he lived up to the title of Demon King. Fire pit, devil's den!
The moment Luo Wuyou came back to her senses and turned around, a person suddenly appeared behind her, which startled her. When she took a closer look, the person was wearing a long silk gown, with a green beard and meticulously combed hair. There is a smile as bright as a chrysanthemum on the wrinkled face.
But those eyes were a little bit sharp, falling on the 'boy', he kept looking up and down, seeing the boy's frightened expression, he immediately came to the conclusion in his heart, this little boy, absolutely Just a country bumpkin who has never seen the world.
There was a smile on his face immediately, and he asked very kindly: "Little boy, are you here to find an errand in our mansion?" The word "Prince's Mansion" was directly omitted.
"Uh, yes, yes."
Luo Wuyou patted his chest, bowed his hands to the man and said: "Boy, I really want to find an errand, but forget it, this prince's mansion is too gorgeous, I, I am illiterate, and I have always I'm afraid that I won't be able to handle the rough hands and feet, so I'd better find another job to do!"
Wiping the non-existent sweat on his forehead, Luo Wuyou hesitated for a while, and finally said as if gritted his teeth, then turned around and wanted to leave, but was blocked by the old man.
"Hey, young man, don't go away. It's okay. In fact, our mansion is just recruiting some rough servants. I think you are quite suitable. It doesn't matter if you can't read. Anyway, we are not recruiting schoolboys to accompany you. It's just some rough work, and you're perfectly capable of doing it."
Of course, thin is a little thin, but it can be regarded as a personal hand anyway.
The man stopped in front of the young man and stroked the green beard on the chin, saying: "How about this, five taels of silver, you can stay in the mansion and work hard, be a second-class servant first, and you can do well in the future." That's it, then I might be able to promote you, my housekeeper!"
"Our master has always treated his servants leniently. I think your situation is not very good. If you really need some silver taels, how about I give you two taels of silver first?"
Seeing the endless lobbyists in front of him, a trace of hesitation flashed across Luo Wuyou's face, as if he was a little shaken, but he said in his heart, it turned out that this person was the housekeeper of the Prince's Mansion, but this lip service, and this inversion of right and wrong , The ability to open your eyes and tell nonsense to fool people.
Even if you don't want to be a housekeeper, you can definitely be a storyteller.
It's just, is this Prince's Mansion really sending someone to such a position?How dare the majestic butler of the Prince's Mansion personally come forward to trick a young man into working as an errand in the mansion?As soon as he opened his mouth, he gave a second-class, five taels of monthly silver, even in the prime minister's mansion, the second-class servant's monthly silver was only two taels, so he just doubled the price?
Is this too outrageous?
"Well, I, the housekeeper, I just want to find a short-term errand, and when I have enough money, I can go back to my hometown. Look, I think I should go to other places to see..."
Luo Wuyou seemed a little hesitant. Seeing this, the housekeeper Wang Chong took out two taels of silver from his armband and stuffed it into his hand, "Well, the part-time job is just a part-time job. Now the head office, right? The housekeeper will pay the money first. Here you go, you sign a contract with this housekeeper, and you will be a member of our Prince's Mansion from now on, even if you go out and talk about it in the future, it will be embarrassing, don't you, let's go, don't dawdle."
The face will be bright, but it is to win the sympathetic eyes of everyone, right?
"Well, that kid will thank the butler first." Luo Wuyou looked down at the money in his hand, struggled a few times in his eyes, finally gritted his teeth and agreed, put the money away, and asked The housekeeper made a big gift.
The housekeeper smiled and said: "Okay, he is a cheerful young man, but I can't be such an adult. My surname is Wang, so you can just call me Wang Butler. Let's go, I will take you to change clothes first. In addition, someone will take you to familiarize yourself with the environment in the mansion, explain the rules of the mansion, and then start to arrange your errands. By the way, what's your name?"
"Thank you Steward Wang, boy Mo Yan, I will be taking care of you in the future." Luo Wuyou thought for a moment, then casually replied with a name. Jun Jinglan went out to help Daqin recognize her.
She had to be careful, because she had also taken voice-changing drugs before.Now, her voice is low and slightly hoarse, like a teenager in the period of voice change, which really fits his current attire.
Steward Wang nodded, appearing to be in a good mood: "Mo Yan, your parents have given you a good name. Do more things in the mansion and talk less, that's right."
Following the housekeeper all the way into the mansion, the housekeeper found a servant's clothes for her to change into. When she came out, the housekeeper Wang was still standing there, waiting for him with a piece of paper in his hand.
"Wang Steward, what is written on it?" Luo Wuyou stretched out his hand to press the paper and glanced at it casually, asking as if he didn't know why.The bright eyes were full of doubts.
Steward Wang still had the same smiling expression, stroked his beard and said, "This is the contract to hire you as a short-term laborer. Because the mansion needs to employ people during this period of time, so first sign the contract for three months. If you do well by then , won the favor of the master, if you want to do it again, we will sign a long contract!"
Employment contract?Are you really sure?
Holding the contract, Luo Wuyou really wanted to ask a question, could it be that she had misread it, that the words written on the paper were not the three words of sale contract, but the four words of employment contract?
Don't say that she doesn't know any of those characters, even if she really doesn't, she can count them anyway, right?
Thinking that the steward Wang is always the steward of the prince's mansion, so such despicable tricks can be used?Is it going too far?Or, is the shortage of people in the Prince's Mansion so serious?
Seeing the young man in a daze, Wang Butler urged: "Oh, I forgot, you are illiterate, and you can't write your own name. If that's the case, then make a handprint. Move, this is red mud. Hurry up. I'll return it to you." There are other things to be busy, and there will be a batch of things to be delivered in a while, and I have to go and count."
"Oh, okay, butler Wang agreed that I will only work for three months. After three months, I will definitely leave the house and return to my hometown. I can't read, so you can't lie to me."
"Cheat you? Can a mansion as big as ours still lie to you, a poor boy?" Butler Wang's eyes flickered slightly, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. The voice was still a little sharper.
Hearing this, Luo Wuyou's face naturally showed a look of fear and apprehension: "Housekeeper, don't be angry, I'll just say that, seeing you are so kind and kind, you won't lie to me, it's just, just... I listened to you on the street. Said some rumors, so, so..."
Steward Wang suppressed his anger when he heard the words, and said earnestly: "I said Mo Yan, can you believe the rumors? They are all talking nonsense. Do you think I look like a bad person? Besides, you are poor and useless. What can I lie to you? To lie to you and give you back the money, am I stupid? With such a good thing, I hope a few more people will lie to me."
The evidence in black and white is still in her hands, this person can still be so convincing, as expected, like a master, there must be a servant, and the ability to pretend to be stupid is really passed on by his master!
Luo Wuyou thought about it, but his head was pecking like a chicken: "What the butler said is very true, I'm thinking too much, I believe that Butler Wang will never lie to me, you are a good person, absolutely a good person , you are so kind-hearted, God will definitely bless you, you will have many children and grandchildren, and you will have endless blessings, just wait a moment, I will imprint my fingerprints."
But Wuyou didn't really care about the handprint, left and right, the name on the deed was that illusory Mo Yan, not her Luo Wuyou.
In the end, who fooled whom?In fact, it is true that it is not necessarily true!
