Yipin Tang

Chapter 96 How to Place
As the shopkeeper of Dengxian Tower, Degui is now a famous figure in Chang'an City. These people naturally know him, and it is Degui who came forward to help Ningxiang and the others redeem themselves for Wang Xiang. Weird thing.Although he was not upset, he could only follow what Wang Xiang said, but he couldn't figure out why his young master bought so many people back. Six years old, the older one is only seven or eight years old...

Degui just sighed, and a person came over with a smile on his face and said, "Treasurer Wang, I have counted, there are a total of 32 strongest Kunlun slaves, 53 best-behaved Silla maidservants, a total of... a total of ..."

Seeing people scratching their teeth, scratching their ears and bending over to look for Shi Shi Degui, one knew that he wanted to calculate how much money it was.

"A total of ten thousand and one hundred."

Ren Yazi looked up at Degui in surprise, smiled embarrassedly and still crouched on the ground and figured out that this deal was too big for them.

Degui didn't stop Ren Yazi, who was worried, but frowned and asked another Ren Yazi who was counting children: "Among these children, you abducted them?" He knew Wang Xiang's temper. He is definitely not happy about it.

Ren Yazi shook his head quickly and said, "How can it be, all our children here have paperwork in the government."

Degui nodded when he heard the words and didn't say much. That's why he brought Wang Xiang to Yazi. Although the price is a bit more expensive, it's not like the scattered people outside. How did the people in their hands get it? Both.

After a while, I finally finished counting. There are 120 boys and 220 girls, a total of 76 guan, plus the money of Kunlun slaves and Silla maids, a total of 1 and 170 guan!
More than 1 pennies, even for the aristocratic family, is not a small sum. After several calculations, I was convinced that it was this number. I sighed in my heart that this prince Xin deserved to be willing to spend [-] pennies to redeem the body of a brothel girl. , They regretted that the price was lowered just now.

……

More than 400 people honestly followed Degui to Zhuangzi outside the city, but none of them escaped. I have to say that this is a kind of sadness in itself.

When Ren Yazi and Degui talked about the price, they also heard it. It was more than 1 guan. Even the youngest children understood what it meant. Although the Kunlun slaves could not speak a few words of Han Chinese, they could basically understand after training. As far as the Han people are concerned, the Silla maidservants are proficient in the language of the Han people, and they can even learn the rules of the rich families.From their point of view, the person who can spend more than 1 yuan to buy all of them must be a very rich person. Maybe they don't have to worry about being hungry in the future, so even if they are asked to run away, they will not run away.

More than 400 people walking together, the mighty formation is naturally very eye-catching, and even aroused the vigilance of the city patrolling sergeants. They were relieved when they heard that Degui said that they were slaves bought by the Marquis of Jiayuan, and offered to send two A sergeant helped him escort the man to the village.

Although these slaves never thought of escaping or resisting at all, seeing the enthusiasm of the sergeant, Degui didn't reject their kindness, but thanked them.

The sergeant also wondered why the Marquis of Jiayuan bought so many slaves, but wisely, he didn't ask any questions, but sent Degui and more than 400 slaves to the village safely.

Wang Xiang had been waiting at the manor for a long time. When he saw the two sergeants coming together, he was taken aback for a moment. After hearing Degui's explanation, he knew that they were showing his favor to him. He smiled and handed over two ingots of silver without any trace. The sergeant lightly weighed the silver in his hand and was immediately overjoyed, and quickly saluted Wang Xiang.

People in the Tang Dynasty mostly used copper coins, and only gold and silver were used for large transactions. Although it is said that one tael of silver is equivalent to a consistent copper coin, in fact, silver is more valuable than copper coins. One tael of silver can be exchanged for about 1000 taels of Wen. And the silver that Wang Xiang handed them was ten taels of silver ingots, which was quite a surprise.

After the sergeant left, Wang Xiang asked Degui to bring all the people he bought into the yard. This yard was the largest in Wang Xiang's manor. Although the layout was simple, it was large, otherwise it really wouldn't be able to accommodate so many people.

In this season, although the wind is not too cold, but the wind blowing on the body already makes people feel chills. Those children are only wearing tattered cloth clothes, which can't block the cold wind at all, and they are shivering from the cold.

Although the Silla maidservants were well dressed, their thin gowns and light gauze did not keep out the cold at all, and they were shivering from the cold.Only those tall and strong Kunlun slaves were bare-chested and only wore a cloth girdle around their waists, but they didn’t seem to feel the cold wind at all. They stood at the front of the crowd with blank faces. Just shrank behind the Kunlun slave to avoid the cold wind.

No one spoke, after a while someone brought piles of clothes and placed them in front of Wang Xiang.The reason why he left the dental clinic early was that he didn't like the dull and depressing atmosphere there, and secondly, he found that the slaves were not fully clothed, so he asked someone to prepare warm clothes for them first.

At this time, the clothes were moved and he said, "Come up and get the clothes."

The slaves didn't seem to have heard Wang Xiang's words, and remained motionless.

Seeing this, Degui yelled at them: "The young master kindly asked someone to prepare clothes for you, why are you just staring! Move quickly, line up and come up one by one to get the clothes!"

It was only after being told by Degui that they realized that these clothes were for themselves.

"It's not easy!"

The "vicious" Degui yelled again, and they trembled one by one to get the clothes, not daring to fight for them. The servants who distributed the clothes distributed clothes to them according to their body types. Anyway, clothes of all sizes are bought. A lot, although not necessarily pretty but thick and warm.

Seeing that they finally came forward to get their clothes obediently, Degui turned his head and said to Wang Xiang in embarrassment: "Young master, these people are used to being reprimanded, and they don't know who you are talking to when you talk like that. It's so fierce." a little."

Wang Xiang nodded and said that he didn't mean to blame him. He understood Degui's actions, but he still couldn't treat these living people as slaves, and he didn't buy them back to treat them as slaves.

After seeing them take back the clothes, Degui still stood stupidly and said with a dark face: "Hurry up and change the clothes, if you freeze to death and cause the young master to lose money, you will look good!"

After hearing Degui's "threat", their faces suddenly flashed with horror and began to change clothes in a hurry, not caring that others were watching, just changing clothes in the yard like this.

People were freezing to death and afraid of being punished for causing the owner to lose money. Looking at these poor people, Wang Xiang sighed and said to Degui: "Let someone cook some meat porridge for them, and let them rest for a night after eating. Let’s talk about it tomorrow.”

He hasn't figured out how to place these people.
