The mercenary queen traveled through time and space to ancient times and only wanted to farm
Chapter 57: Happy to hear that Dad is safe and sound
The shop owner immediately asked in a flattering manner: "Are you short of staff in the shop?"
Shopkeeper Huang was very upset: "Can you please let me finish what I'm saying?"
The man obediently covered his mouth with his hands, looked at the other person innocently with his big eyes, and nodded vigorously.
Chen Qingxin was holding back his laughter. The way these two people got along was really peculiar.
Shopkeeper Huang turned his head to Chen Qingxin and said, "Girl, if you have any requirements for the buyer, just tell Shopkeeper Qian.
He doesn't look particularly reliable, but the people he has are pretty good."
Chen Qingxin smiled as she watched the two of them finish their verbal fight. Finally, she thought of the main issue and slowly expressed her request:
"I want two women between 30 and 40 years old, free from worries, who can do laundry, cooking, cleaning, and farm work."
"No problem, Xiao Sanzi, go and call the person living in room number three to come to me." Manager Qian ordered with a serious face.
He was like two completely different people from the one he was chatting and joking with Shopkeeper Huang before.
Chen Qingxin marveled at how quickly this person changed his expression, even skipping the scene change.
The third son bowed and took the order and left.
After a while, 10 women in their thirties or forties lined up in a row and stood opposite Chen Qingxin and others with their heads down.
"Raise your head and stretch your hands forward." Manager Qian gave the instructions habitually.
The women did as they were told.
Seeing that these people had clear eyes, healthy bodies, and clean hands, Chen Qingxin was quite satisfied: "Those who have no worries at home can move forward."
The women didn't seem to understand what she meant, and they all looked at the pawnshop owner in confusion.
The latter explained: "It means people who have no relatives or friends at home. Just take a step forward, and you will understand."
"Old slave, I understand!"
Six women moved.
According to the personnel registration form given by Manager Qian, Chen Qingxin selected two women with regular features and clear eyes, one 32 years old and the other 35 years old.
"The total is 16 taels of silver. Does the young lady want anything else? Do you want a maid or a servant?" asked Manager Qian.
Chen Qingxin took out a 10-liang note, a 5-liang note, and one liang of silver and handed them to the shopkeeper: "I don't need it for now. Please go to the county government to complete the formalities. I'll be waiting at the 'Island of Clothes'."
The two women followed closely behind Chen Qingxin and Manager Huang and walked towards the clothing shop.
"Aunt, please get them two sets of clean clothes, from head to toe, from inside to outside!"
Upon hearing this, the two women knelt on the ground with a thud and kowtowed three times: "Old slaves kowtow to thank the master!"
"Get up, take your clothes, go to the inn over there, get a room, and clean yourself up.
Change your clothes and don't take your old clothes with you.
After that, come back here.”
"Old slave, you obey!"
"Use this to book a room." Chen Qingxin threw half a tael of silver to the two of them.
She didn't know how much a room would cost, and she believed that the two men would not dare to cheat her, after all, the contract of sale was still in her hands.
Just as the two women left, Manager Qian came back from the county government office:
"Miss, this is the indenture of those two people, please keep it.
If you need a servant in the future, feel free to come to me. You are Manager Huang’s guest, and you are also my guest.
I guarantee that the price is fair and the person’s character is absolutely fine.”
"Don't be so confident, Miss Chen. If you need anything, feel free to contact your aunt. You'll feel at ease knowing that I'll be your guarantor." Shopkeeper Huang said sincerely.
"Thank you, Aunt Huang, and thank you, Shopkeeper Qian.
Can either of you help me rent a carriage to take the two women to Wangji Furniture Shop in Qingfeng Town? I will pay for the fare myself."
"I'll come down and make the arrangements. The person left my dental clinic. It doesn't matter if it's for money or not. Please don't be polite, young lady."
"Thank you very much! Two brothers, let's go!"
Chen Qingxin bid farewell to the two shopkeepers and left the city in the carriage.
For a horse-drawn carriage, 5 miles is just a blink of an eye.
"Two guys, please unload the goods here. Someone will come to help me take it back later." Chen Qingxin took a casual look and saw that there was no one around, so he spoke in a warm voice.
Xiao Qizi and Xiao Qingzi answered in unison: "Okay, girls!"
In order to get the money out as soon as possible, Chen Qingxin also helped.
The goods were quickly placed on the grass on both sides of the road.
She handed 10 copper coins to each of the two delivery guys and said, "Thank you for your hard work. You can go home now."
"Thank you for the reward, young lady. We will return to the city now. Go!"
When they walked away, Chen Qingxin curled the corners of his mouth playfully and said to himself: "Hey, come to my bowl!"
Next, he touched the things on the ground one by one with a sly look on his face, and in a short while, the grass was empty.
Chen Qingxin skipped and jumped towards Qingfeng Town, moving forward slowly and steadily.
She wanted to wait for the two women for a while.
The older woman's surname is Han, and the other's surname is Yang.
In ancient times, people called older maids "nanny" or "pozi".
She personally thinks that "Mammy" sounds better and is a sign of respect for others.
Old woman, old woman, it sounds awkward.
As they were walking, Chen Qingxin suddenly said, "Come out! If you don't come out, I'm going to take action!"
"No, no, no! Girl, I'm not a bad person." Xifeng had already seen how powerful the little girl was in the morning. She had knocked down eight strong men by herself. If he fought with her, he probably wouldn't get much advantage.
Besides, the little girl was most likely his master, the person he was trying every means to find, and he dared not offend her.
When Chen Qingxin saw the person coming, he asked in surprise: "Why is it you? Have you been following me?"
Xifeng shook his head like a rattle:
"No, absolutely not!
I came out to look for someone, but I couldn't find him in Qingfeng Town.
The only thing I could do was to head north and ask around the county town.
Girl, do you know this person?"
Xifeng took out a portrait from his sleeve pocket and unfolded it in front of Chen Qingxin.
As soon as Chen Qingxin's eyes caught sight of the painting, he was immediately petrified: "Where did you get this painting?"
Xifeng felt secretly delighted: judging from the little girl's surprised expression, she must know the person in the painting.
At this moment, I was a little impressed with myself. He had guessed it right.
"Girl, have you ever seen the person in the portrait?" Xifeng asked impatiently.
Chen Qingxin said stubbornly: "First tell me where this painting came from?"
"I asked first."
“Girls first.”
……
The two fought back and forth, neither of them giving in, and in the end Xifeng was defeated:
"Well, it doesn't hurt for me to tell you that this painting was painted by my master.
The person in the painting was the one the master rescued from the mountains a month ago when he went hunting.
It's just that this person had a head injury, and after being rescued, he lost his past memories."
While Xifeng was speaking, he did not miss the expression on the little girl's face:
Surprise, joy, worry, it was truly rich and colorful.
How could Chen Qingxin, a 9-year-old child, remain indifferent when he heard that there was confirmed news about his relatives who had been missing for many days?
