The crazy daily life of the mistress

Xiaoyou knew what Ren Yazi meant, so she shouted, "Yae, give me the money."

Yae was a little embarrassed. He was only responsible for running errands, so why should he pay for it?

Of course, he couldn't say that.

He could only bow to Xiaoyou and then said to the trafficker, "Give our girl the indenture contract first. When our prince comes back, I will definitely send the money to your store."

The human trafficker does business with many families, and this is the first time he has seen money being paid without being paid in person.

Her face changed, she straightened up, and said to the person she brought with her, "Since you don't have the money, I'll take that person back first. The Dali Temple's family is buying a maid for the new cousin today, so I'll take people there first. I'll come back when you have the money."

When Xiaoyou heard this, she wondered how could the person she had chosen be taken away and sold to someone else?

Besides, when the human trafficker arrived today, the entire Duke's Mansion would definitely know that she wanted to buy a person. Now that the human trafficker takes the person away, wouldn't that make a fool of herself for others to see?

How could she let others laugh at her like this?

Especially Mrs. Du and Lu Yi, she must buy servants that she likes and belong to her!

She said, "Wait, I haven't said anything yet, tell me, how much is it?"

When the trafficker heard her talking, he smiled again and said, "Young lady, you are really generous. These four women, four maids, and four servants are worth five hundred taels in total. I'll give you a discount and give you four hundred and eighty taels."

"Four hundred and eighty taels!" Xiao Hong exclaimed in surprise, "So expensive!"

When the human trafficker saw that it was a maid who spoke, she did not lower her status by talking to a little maid.

But the maid next to her said: "This is not expensive. Our people have to learn the rules before they can sell it. We do business with the rich and powerful. People don't dare to use the cheap ones."

Cheap?

Aren’t you talking about Xiaohong?

Xiao Hong blushed at what the maidservant said to her. Xiao You said, "Xiao Hong, go get five hundred taels from the money box and give it to the matchmaker. I can afford twenty taels."

The man smiled and said, "Of course, the girl is a wealthy person, so she will need the twenty taels of silver."

Xiaohong went into Xiaoyou's room and took out Xiaoyou's money box. There were exactly five hundred taels of silver notes and some small change in it.

In other words, after buying these maids and old women, they would have no money left.

Xiaohong reluctantly took out the banknote and handed it to Xiaoyou.

Xiaoyou knew how much money she had. The reason why she was willing to pay the bill was of course because of Zhan Shijun, because she knew that after she came back in the evening, Zhan Shijun would definitely give her the money back.

As soon as the human trafficker left, Yachong also went to the place where Zhan Shijun was on duty. He was Zhan Shijun's personal servant, so naturally he should follow Zhan Shijun.

Xiaoyou took the indentures of twelve people and happily put them into the money box. She finally had servants of her own.

Xiao Hong covered her extremely hungry stomach and said, "Miss, I am very hungry."

Xiaoyou had breakfast with Zhan Shijun this morning, so she was not hungry. She also didn't know that Xiaohong didn't have breakfast.

"Didn't you have breakfast?" she asked.

Xiao Hong said, "I don't have a share of today's breakfast. They said I don't belong to Hanhuiyuan, so my breakfast can't be counted as part of Hanhuiyuan's profit."

Xiaoyou felt sorry for him and said, "Then take some money and go buy something to eat."

Xiaohong nodded happily. Ever since they came into the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion, they seldom had the opportunity to go out. There were too many rules in this large and noble mansion.

There are indeed a lot of rules. Even Lu Yi has to report to Mrs. Du before going out.

So, after finishing breakfast, Lu Yi reported to Mrs. Du, then took Xiaolan, Daqing and Xiaoqing with her, and went out to check out the shop with the silver.

Under the deliberate inducement of Daqing and Xiaoqing, Lu Yi bought the shop that Zhan Shixuan had prepared for her to transfer at a low price.

The price was very favorable. The shopkeeper was afraid that she would not want it, so he quoted a very low price. He also carefully explained that the shop had a good location, a lot of traffic, and would be very popular no matter what they sold.

Lu Yi thought that since her rebirth, her luck had improved and whatever she wanted came true.

The price was very suitable. After all, the shopkeeper only asked for five hundred taels.

In the center of a busy street in the capital, buying a shop for five hundred taels is simply pie in the sky!

Lu Yi, who was hit by the pie, didn't even think about whether it was a scam.

Because it was her first time buying a shop.

The shopkeeper ran around and in half a day handed the documented house deed with the official seal to Lu Yi.

Lu Yi took it, paid the money, and said, "Thank you, shopkeeper."

The shopkeeper looked at Lu Yi with eyes full of love and said, "Madam, what kind of business are you planning to do?"

Lu Yi said: "I haven't thought about it yet, I don't understand it very well, just buy it first, and then I will start preparing when I think of what to sell."

The shopkeeper said, "Madam, if I sell this shop, I will have nowhere to go. Would you mind taking pity on me and letting me be the shopkeeper here?"

Lu Yi said: "But, I may not be able to afford the monthly salary."

The shopkeeper said, "Madam, this shop originally sold silk and satin. You can continue to run this business. I am also an old hand. I will help you with the purchase and sale of goods. This shop used to make a profit of more than three to five hundred taels every month."

Lu Yi exclaimed, "Since the business is so good, why did the original owner want to sell it?"

Good question!

Daqing and Xiaoqing both looked at the shopkeeper, their eyes clearly showing: Let me see how you make it up.

The shopkeeper was very calm. He had thought of this excuse long ago. He said, "Alas, madam, you don't know that the original owner's family is not here. Years ago, the old boss passed away. The young boss didn't want to run back and forth, so he asked me to transfer the shop. But I have worked here for half my life and I can't bear to leave. Please pity me."

Lu Yi said, "Okay, then you can stay here as the shopkeeper. I'll need to hire someone in the future anyway, so you can continue to work here. I wonder how much your monthly salary was before?"

The shopkeeper said, "The monthly salary is easy to negotiate. You can give as much as you like. If business is good, you can give ten taels. If business is bad, you can give five taels."

Lu Yi thought about it and thought that it would be at most ten taels, which was not expensive.

She nodded and replied, "Okay, then you can help arrange it."

The shopkeeper was very happy and said, "Madam, we can open the shop tomorrow. There is a yard behind this shop. There are still a lot of stocks from the old owner in the yard. I can start selling the goods tomorrow. Your five hundred taels can be earned back very quickly."
