Although she is rich now, money did not come easily to her, so she should save as much as possible.

"Oh, right." Song Chuman added, "I still need to buy some things before going home. Please let them stay here first. I will buy things and find a carriage to pick them up. You can cooperate with me to go to the government office."

In Xuanling Country, purchased servants must be registered with the government to provide better protection for their masters.

Shopkeeper Zhou said readily, "Of course."

Song Chuman also paid the silver.

Seeing this, Xu Jilai and his two siblings knew that they were finally going to be bought by someone, so they knelt down in front of Song Chuman with a thud.

"Thank you, miss. Thank you, miss."

Song Chuman turned around and said calmly, "Get up, take good care of my family in the future, I won't treat you unfairly. But if you have other thoughts, I won't let you go easily. Just now, your eldest brother also saw my ability."

Xu Jilai said quickly: "Miss, rest assured. I will serve you and your family wholeheartedly. If we betray you, the three of us will not have a good death, and our parents will not rest in peace in the afterlife."

Xu Da Niu and Xu Er Niu also said at the same time: "If we betray, the three of us brothers and sisters will not have a good death, and our parents will not have peace in the underworld."

Song Chuman nodded and glanced around the yard. Since she was already here, she might as well buy the other servants as well.

The five-person cooking team at home does not stay at home at night. They go home after washing the dishes after dinner every day.

Moreover, there will be dozens more people in the family in the future. The five of them will have to take care of her mother and the children at the same time, and manage the servants at the same time. It will definitely be too much for them.

Thinking about this, she told Manager Zhou her request.

When Manager Zhou heard that she wanted to buy ten more maids and two book boys, he was very excited and immediately asked Xiao Zhao to bring people who met Song Chuman's requirements.

Song Chuman selected twelve people that she was satisfied with and asked, "How much do the twelve people I just selected cost?"

Shopkeeper Zhou said, "Those people are all around twelve or thirteen years old, still young and of average appearance. The price is not expensive. Ten taels of silver for a girl and thirteen taels of silver for a boy."

What an evil feudal society.

Why are boys worth so much more money than girls?

Song Chuman complained in her heart, but this time she didn't bargain and gave the money readily.

Although she bought thirty-two people at once today, it seemed like a lot of people.

But if they are asked to be on duty during the day and at night respectively, the average number of people available during the day and night will be only eighteen.

If you calculate it this way, there isn’t much left.

She asked them to stay here for a while, and after getting the indenture from the shopkeeper, she went out for some shopping with her family.

Autumn is here, and we need to buy clothes for everyone in the family, including the thirty-two servants here today. We can't let them continue wearing what they are wearing now.

Their clothes, the women's were still okay, but some of the men's were torn into strips.

Most of the fabrics we have at home are silk and satin, or gifts from guests. I can’t let them wear them and let them down.

When she went to the cloth shop, she bought dozens of pieces of various linen and cotton cloth.

I also bought dozens of ready-made clothes.

There were also quilts, mattresses, etc., and more than fifty of them were bought.

Although there are many rooms in the house now, the ready-made quilts and other items are still not enough for the thirty-two people to use.

She also bought a lot of various foods, seasonings, pots, pans and other daily necessities.
