Shen Li took Shen Xing to the dental clinic.

When she entered, Shen Li did not see Zhao Liang, so she said to the waiter who received her, "I'm looking for Zhao Liang."

The waiter's polite smile was somewhat forced: "Zhao Liang is our manager now. He won't receive guests anymore."

Shen Li was not surprised by this result. Zhao Liang's ability was really good. "Then go and call him for me. My name is Shen Li."

When the waiter heard this, he thought this person was probably someone he knew, so he said, "Then please wait a moment, my dear guest."

Shen Li and Shen Xing were sitting there. After a while, Zhao Liang came out in a hurry: "Miss Shen, why are you free today?"

"I'm thinking of buying some more people. We'll probably move into the house after the New Year, and we'll need some maids and servants."

"Okay, I'll arrange for some people to come over for you to choose from. Also, there are three loyal and capable people that I was asked to keep an eye out for now."

Shen Li said happily: "I knew you were capable. Call you out so I can see."

"Okay, you sit and wait for me for a while, I'll make the arrangements."

"Okay, stop looking at me. No matter how much I admire me, I can't risk my life for you." Shen Xing said while drinking tea.

"Yes, this guy is really a talent. I really want to recruit him to my company, but he is Jin Duobao's man, and I am not sure about using him." Shen Li felt very regretful.

"You don't have to be envious. I think Luo Qi, although he is young, he seems to be capable of doing things. Why don't you train him well?"

"He, I have other uses."

Seeing that she didn't explain clearly, Shen Xing curled her lips and said, "Are you pretending to be mysterious?"

At this time, Zhao Liang led three people over and said, "Miss, please take a look."

Shen Li looked at the three people. They all had good physiques and looked strong and capable of working. They also looked honest. "Okay, let's choose them. Do you want me to pick the names?"

"nature."

Shen Li thought of the names he had given to the two people he had bought before, and wanted to continue following that logic. He looked at one of the people with pockmarks all over his face and said, "Your name is Dao Gu."

Then he looked at the fat man with the biggest face and said, "Your name is Dou Dou."

Then the thinnest one said: "Your name is Xiaomai."

Shen Xing was listening at the side and was speechless: "This name is too vulgar."

"It's fine as long as it's easy to remember. Who cares if it's vulgar or not." Shen Li knew that she was not an elegant person.

At this time, the guy from before, leading a group of people, came to Shen Li.

"Miss, look at these people. They are all loyal, but you can only discover their abilities slowly when you go back." Zhao Liang said.

Shen Li understood that these people were simply picked out by Zhao Liang from among the people in the dental clinic. This could be considered as a thorough screening, and it was definitely much better than buying directly.

She picked out five older ones, who looked to be in their thirties: "We'll take these five."

Then he picked out six young women and said, "I want these six too."

Finally, he picked out ten younger men. They were called young because the oldest one was about thirty years old and the youngest one was about eighteen or nineteen years old. “These ten men.”

Zhao Liang glanced at the waiter, and the waiter understood and took the rest of the people away.

"Let's count the money." Shen Li said.

Zhao Liang looked at the twenty-one people and said, "Miss, the five older women you bought are worth 100 taels, the six younger ones are worth 180 taels, the ten men are worth 300 taels, and the three people you named are worth 600 taels, a total of 1,180 taels."

Fortunately, it didn't exceed the amount of money in his hand. Shen Li counted the banknotes happily, paid the money, and then took the indenture and said, "From now on, you will be my Shen family's people. As long as you work hard and don't betray me, I won't treat you unfairly."

Everyone said in unison: "We understand."

After leaving the dental office, Shen Li took them to the house.

She had noticed that the girl was pretty good. At least her eyes weren't dull or dazed, so she called her over and asked, "Do you have a name?"

"No, Miss."

"Then I'll give you a name, Liu Xin, is that okay with you?"

"Miss Liu Xin thanks you for the name."

"Take them and clean up the house, and then go buy whatever is needed. Here are two hundred taels. You can cook your own food in the kitchen, and as for where to stay, find a suitable wing and arrange for them to stay there."

Liu Xin was very surprised. He had just bought them and he gave her two hundred taels of silver. Wasn't he afraid that she would run away with the money? Although she wouldn't, because the indenture was still there, she had never heard of any owner who would do that.

"Miss, I understand. I will do it. Do you have any other instructions?"

"It's nothing. You guys can spend the New Year here. You can cook a nice meal. I'll move in after the New Year."

"Okay, miss."

Shen Li looked at the little girl. She was about the same age as her, but she was still very decisive when it came to doing things. She was not wrong about her.

After everything was arranged, Shen Li took Shen Xing and bought a lot of food. She didn't buy anything else because she planned to move in after the New Year, and she didn't want to go through the trouble of buying food and having to move.

After buying everything he needed, he took Shen Xing, Shen Liang, and Luo Qi back to Heike Village.

As for Fang Tianya, she had already told him when she saw him before that he told them to go back first, and Shen Li did not ask him what he was going to do.

……

Ruan Heng felt relieved after receiving the five thousand taels from Shen Li. He thought about the zither that Shen Yanyan had always liked, but he hadn't bought it before because it was too expensive. Now that he had money, he naturally bought it for her as a New Year's gift.

When he arrived outside the yard where Shen Yanyan lived, he knocked on the door.

Originally, he gave this yard to Shen Yanyan to live in. It was not a big house, but just a courtyard. However, it was much larger than an ordinary courtyard, and it was more than enough for several people from the Shen family to live in.

It was Old Lady Shen who opened the door.

"Grandma, I'm here to look for Yanyan."

Old Lady Shen no longer had the arrogance and domineering attitude she had in Pingjia Village. She smiled with wrinkles on her face and said, "It's Master Ruan. Yanyan is in the room. You should go quickly."

Ruan Heng entered the room: "Yan Yan, look what I brought?"

Shen Yanyan said coquettishly: "Brother Ruan, you haven't come to see me for a long time. I thought you had forgotten me."

"How could that be? Aren't you busy?"

Shen Yanyan ignored his words at this time and looked directly at what he was holding: "Is this a zither?"

"Yes, didn't you say you liked it last time? Now that I have money, I will buy it for you."

Shen Yanyan hurried forward, took the zither, and opened the cloth cover. She said in an even more charming voice, "Brother Ruan, you are so kind to me." She plucked the strings twice and said, "But the prefect said he would not give you money. Where did you get the money to buy the zither?"

Ruan Heng was a young man who was naive and had almost never lied, so he said without thinking: "Your cousin Shen Li came to me for help. After I helped her, she gave me money, which I didn't want at first..."
