The job I am doing now is very good. I only have to cook a few meals for the family, and help the second lady make some snacks. Although the uncle paid him wages, the second lady gave him an extra taels of silver.

Six taels of silver per month, this was a good thing that he had never dreamed of, and it happened to him. What's more, his boss also let him live here, so he didn't have to travel back and forth every day.

He goes home once a month and gives five taels of silver to his wife and one tael to his parents. The family's life has greatly improved, and even his grandson can go to school. Wang Youshan is simply too satisfied with this kind of life.

"Uncle, is your meat fresh?" Shen Nan asked, pointing to a large piece of meat hanging in the pork shop.

"Of course it's fresh. It's so cold today. The pig I killed just at noon is still fresh." The butcher looked at the little girl in front of him with a smile.

"Okay, then I want this piece. Can you give me these bones?" She pointed to the bones next to her that had been stripped of flesh.

"Okay, I'll give them all to you. This little girl really knows how to live a good life." The butcher waved his hand and put all the bones into fresh big leaves, wrapped them casually, and immediately went to weigh the meat.

After buying the meat, Shen Nan went to the workshop to get thread.

"Damn girl, your hands and feet are so slow, what's the use of you?"

"Second mother, don't hit me. I'll get to work right away." It's winter, and the little girl is still wearing a thin cotton coat and is being chased and beaten by the fat woman.

"Boss Li, you are so happy!" The courtyard door was not closed, and Shen Nan slowly walked into the courtyard.

"Hey, Boss Shen, why are you here?" The woman named Li threw away the cane in her hand embarrassedly, rubbed her hands, and looked at Shen Nan.

"Whose girl is that?"

"Oh, it's just my eldest brother's child, how can it be worthy of Boss Shen's question?" Boss Li laughed and motioned for the little girl to leave quickly with fierce eyes.

The little girl looked enviously at the brightly dressed Shen Nan and the dozen or so girls behind her, then silently entered the back room.

"Boss Shen is here to pick up the goods, right? I heard that your shop is doing very well, which makes us very envious." Although she was joking, the envy in her eyes was genuine, and there was even a hint of envy in her eyes. Calculation.

"Haha, yes." Shen Nan smiled and did not answer her question.

Sensing the other party's indifference, Boss Li scratched his cheek and asked the boy to take out four bags of cotton thread and put them on their carriage.

Shen Nan paid four taels of silver, gave another two taels of deposit, and got on the carriage with the girls.

Boss Li looked at the broken silver in his hand and immediately stopped smiling.

"After earning so much money, she didn't even know how to give me a hand and give me one tael of silver per bag. I let her earn all the money. Why!"

"Shopkeeper, a bag of one tael of silver, we have already earned a lot." The boy on the side reminded in a low voice.

"Get out!" Shopkeeper Li yelled angrily, and the boy quickly ran to the side to help instead of joining in the fun.

In addition to him, several workers, including the little girl from before, heard this sentence.

"Xiaoye, did Chen Lazi say when the house will be expanded?" she asked.

I told Chen Lazi before that my home was going to be expanded.

Song Hexuan also bought the land to the north of the house. When the time comes, the two yards will be adjacent, so they can take care of each other.

As for her, she also wants to expand the worker's house, which can accommodate at least a hundred people. In the future, as the store expands, more workers will definitely be needed.

"Five more days, but it will take a few more days to dry after the construction is completed."

"It's okay. Anyway, we still have time today. I'm going to see if I can find some suitable girls. Then Honglian and the others will be promoted to team leaders to train new people."

"Then go to the tooth shop?"

"Go ahead, only those who have a contract to sell themselves can use it."

"Okay." Ono pulled the carriage and turned around. Although Guren and the others didn't know what the lady was going to do, they still followed.

I didn’t go to Chengdu Yahang last time, but I finally came this time.

"Oh, young lady, do you want a servant?" Ya Po saw the two people getting off the carriage and immediately greeted them diligently.

"Well, I need to buy a little maid."

"Okay, Miss, come with me." Ya Po saw that Shen Nan was the one making the decision among these people and immediately welcomed her in.

"Wang San, bring all the little girls out." Ya Po shouted to the inner courtyard.

"Okay, mother-in-law."

"Miss, please have tea, sir, please have tea." She poured tea for the two of them, but Shen Nan didn't drink it. Hong Lian and the others stood behind them, knowing the purpose of the young lady's visit to Yaxing, so they stood behind obediently.

About three minutes later, a man outside shouted: "Mother-in-law, everyone is here."

"Miss Young Master, please move to the courtyard, we are ready."

The group of people went to the yard and saw more than 40 girls of various sizes standing in the yard, ranging from five or six years old to those in their twenties.

The clothes on the girls are very thin, not what they should wear in this season anyway.

Realizing that Shen Nan was looking at their clothes, Yapo immediately explained: "Miss, don't get me wrong, it was really such a rush, the girls didn't have time to put on their coats."

Everyone naturally knew that she was lying, and they were not in the mood to expose her.

"Miss, how old are the maids you want to buy? These are good ones and they look good." Ya Po pointed to the girls standing in front on the right.

The girls seem to have suffered a lot here, and now they finally have a buyer, and they all want to be bought.

"Is there anyone else in your family?" Shen Nan asked.

"Go back to the lady, I still have my father, mother, and younger brother at home." The girl's voice became smaller and smaller, as if after saying these words, everyone would know how she was sold.

"Do you want to live a good life?"

"think."

"What do you think is a good life?"

“Be well fed and clothed.”

"What if you become a concubine of a wealthy family?"

"Miss!" The girl looked at her in horror, her eyes full of rejection.

"Does anyone want to live in a wealthy family? The premise is that you can become a concubine and enjoy the food and drink. You don't have to worry about food and clothing. Anyone who is willing can come forward."

Everyone looked at each other in shock, and no one stood up.

"Don't you want to go? That will be a wonderful day that you can't even imagine."

"Miss, I do." A pretty girl came out from behind the crowd.

"Is there anything else? This is my husband, are you willing to be his concubine?" Seeing that no one came out, Shen Nan pulled Xiao Ye next to him and looked at the girls with a smile.

Forget about younger girls, what she wants to test is teenage girls.

"Miss, I am willing too."

"I would too."

Three girls stood out one after another from the crowd, including the one just now, a total of four.

"You all want to be his concubine, right? Then have you asked me why I pushed him out."

Several people shook their heads. Yapo and the man stood aside without speaking.
