"Then what are your plans now? If you need anything, just tell your sister. After all, my sister has lived in Xunyang City for more than 20 years and has been doing business for four or five years. She is more familiar with Xunyang than you are.
And Su Niang, her family background is also very strong in Xunyang City. Although you have only met a few times, Su Niang has always been a warm-hearted person. If you ask her for anything, she will definitely help you."
Qiaoyun's words were very sincere, and Yanxiao was greatly moved, saying that he would definitely cause a lot of trouble for his two sisters in the future. After that, Qiaoyun asked Yanxiao about the identity of the pregnant woman in Yanxiao's family, and Yanxiao told the truth one by one. Qiaoyun
After hearing this, he felt very emotional and said that this man probably couldn't escape the Yingying Yanyan outside. He also said that it was a good thing that Yan Xiao didn't care too much about Lin Youwei, otherwise he would have been dejected, sad and angry at this time.
Yan Xiao smiled after hearing this. Qiao Yun didn't know that he was an impostor. The original owner had already died for Lin Youweixiang. It's just that he had no choice but to temporarily live in the Lin family. When the time comes, he must avenge this for the original owner.
Hateful.
After the two talked freely, they no longer felt like admiring the bustling scene outside, and remained silent all the way to Yaxing.
When they arrived at the place, the boy listened to the car, and Qiao Yunyanxiao got out of the car one by one. When he heard the sound of the wheels, the people inside had already come out. A chubby middle-aged man came out and saw that he was coming.
Qiaoyun, hurriedly walked down the steps to greet him.
"Oh, I didn't know that Mrs. Qiao was coming, so I didn't go far to greet her. I'm rude, I'm rude." The man said, cupping his fists.
Qiaoyun also greeted him politely: "I haven't seen you for a long time, Mr. Yuan. How is business?"
"Oh, thanks to you nobles, I can still live hand to mouth." The man stretched his thick waist and said with a smile.
"Mr. Yuan, let me introduce to you. This is my adopted sister, Mrs. Yanxiao. Sister, this is Mr. Yuan Shuyuan, the steward of the largest dental shop in Xunyang."
Yan Xiao knelt down and saluted, "I've met Mr. Yuan."
Yuan Shu also returned the greeting and said: "Ms. Yan, you are polite."
"Why don't we go in and talk slowly? I'll also prepare two cups of thin tea for the two ladies to moisten their mouths." Yuan Shu said.
"good!"
"please!"
After the group entered the hall, a maid immediately brought tea. Qiaoyun took a sip and said, "Not bad, Mr. Yuan, you must have spent a lot of money on this tea!"
"Although I am a rough guy and cannot compare to those celebrities, I have fallen in love with this tea recently. This is a very popular tea in Xunyang recently. It is sweet and tastes very good." Yuan Shuxiao
road.
Yan Xiao also took a sip and thought it was very good. It could be seen that it was fermented black tea. The tea-making process was quite good.
After drinking tea, they talked about business. Qiaoyun said: "I came today mainly because my girl needs a mother-in-law in her family."
When Yuan Shu saw this, he asked, "I wonder what kind of mother-in-law Mrs. Yan wants?"
Yan Xiao immediately said: "I don't have any special requirements for this person. First of all, he can clean and cook, work carefully, and can take care of people. It would be best if he has taken care of a pregnant master before. The most important thing is that he can sign a death contract with me."
.”
Yuan Shu's brows slowly wrinkled after listening to Yan Xiao's words. Yan Xiao also noticed it and asked, "I see that Sir has a puzzled look on his face, but what's the problem?"
Yuan Shu explained: "Those other things are easy to handle, but the death contract is difficult. Usually the ones who sign the death contract are little girls and young men. This woman rarely signs the death contract. She usually signs the living contract. This
You can sign it for a longer period, or you can sign it for five or ten years first, and then renew it when the time is up."
After listening to Yuan Shu's words, Yan Xiao knew that it was impossible for the old woman to buy a death contract and go back. Song Zhiyue was probably using this matter to embarrass herself again. She really took out the anger she suffered on her son on herself.
coming.
Since she couldn't sign a death contract, Yan Xiao didn't insist on buying a death contract back. She said, "In that case, let's make a living contract!"
When Yuan Shu heard this, he immediately bent down and said, "Madams, please wait a moment. I'll call for someone right away."
After Yuan Shu left, Qiaoyun asked: "Didn't you say you wanted a death contract? Why don't you want it now?"
Yan Xiao whispered: "According to what Yuan Shu just said, my mother-in-law should know that she can't buy a death deed, but she still wants me to buy a death deed. This is obviously making things difficult for me. If I really buy a death deed,
I'm going back with Qi. Isn't she going to take advantage of her in the future? She will definitely ask me to do a lot of things that are impossible to do easily. I don't go out very much, but I'm not stupid. Why should I find something for myself?
.”
Qiaoyun listened to Yan Xiao's analysis and gave Yan Xiao a thumbs up, indicating that Yan Xiao was right.
As soon as the two of them finished talking, Yuan Shu came in with several women. Yan Xiao looked at the women, they all seemed to have different qualities, some looked kind-hearted, some looked sly, and some looked like...
A bad slave. However, you can't judge a book by its appearance, so you still have to give it a try.
Yuan Shu brought people to Yan Xiao and said: "These five people meet the requirements of Lady Yan. They have all worked in wealthy families before, and they are all from innocent families. Lady Yan, look at which one you want."
?”
Yan Xiao stood up, walked to the five women, walked around, looked at them, and said, "Stretch out your hands and take a look."
Although the five women were puzzled, they all stretched out their hands. After Yan Xiao looked around, a strong man with calluses on his index finger and thumb asked: "Where were you at your previous master's house?"
What kind of work are you mainly responsible for?”
After hearing this, the old woman said: "I was taking care of the young lady in the previous family. The young lady of that family was pregnant, so she bought me to take care of the young lady. I can make some soups and dishes suitable for pregnant women. I often make these.
I grew cocoons. I took care of the young lady’s two pregnancies. Both times, the young lady gave birth to two sons successfully. Later, when the two young sons grew up, I was not needed in the house, so they gave birth to them.
I got some reward money and fired me."
After the mother-in-law finished speaking, Yan Xiao looked at Yuan Shu, who nodded and said, "Indeed, I was the one who picked up this mother when the time for the contract was up, so the owner is also very satisfied with her."
Then he asked the mother-in-law her name. The mother-in-law said that her name was Sun Guixiang and that she was in her forties this year.
Yan Xiao nodded and understood. He said to Yuan Shu, "That's it!" Then he looked at the old woman who had just asked the question and said, "How about I sign a five-year contract with you first? What if you do it later?
OK, I will continue again."
Yan Xiao asked Yuan Shu again: "Mr. Yuan, I wonder what the price is?"
Yuan Shu said: "If you sign a living contract, it will be cheaper for an older woman like this. One year is twenty taels of silver, and five years is one hundred taels of silver."
When Yan Xiao heard that it was one hundred taels of silver, he was stunned. "Mr. Yuan, are you sure it is one hundred taels of silver?"
Mr. Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, this is the price of everything in Xunyang City."
Yan smiled dumbly. He didn't expect that buying a servant for a year was more expensive than himself. Could it be that the original owner's father was driven crazy? He married himself into the Lin family for only ten taels of silver.
Qiaoyun stood up and said, "Mr. Yuan, you can deceive others, but you can't deceive me. Your price can be negotiated."
"Miss Qiao, you are joking, this is really the lowest price." Yuan Shu said with a smile.
"What is the lowest price? Aren't you the ones who have the final say? There is a lot of profit in your business. You can deceive my sworn sister who is not familiar with the world, but you can't deceive my name Dong Xunyang.
What a beautiful lady!" Qiao Yun's words made Yuan Shu laugh twice as he stood there.
Seeing this, Qiaoyun continued: "Back then, I bought four maids and a boy from you for five hundred taels. You told me that this was the lowest price, but not long after, I went to deliver clothes to the guests.
What I know is that they also bought four of them, but spent less money than me. Mr. Yuan, what do you think is going on? If others knew that your largest dental shop in Xunyang did this business, even if
It’s not very good for you! Besides, we are in Xunyang City together, and we always have to see each other if we raise our heads or lower our heads. Businesses also require a little favor to lead to more business, right?"
Yuan Shu couldn't help sweating on his back when he heard Qiao Yun smiling and saying these words very gently. After all, Qiao Yun's guests were all well-known people in Xunyang City. If he really said something to them, then he would
The business is really not doing well. Yuan Shuqiu said with a smile: "Ms. Qiao is indeed very discerning. I will sell this favor to you today. I will need you to take more care of my business in the future!"
"Hey, this is natural. After all, yours is the largest dental shop in Xunyang, so I will definitely take care of your business. " Qiaoyun said and looked at the sign outside.
Yuan Shu turned around and asked Yan Xiao: "I wonder how much money Mrs. Yan thinks is appropriate?"
Yan Xiao saw Yuan Shu being pinched by Qiao Yun and said, "I can't let Mr. Yuan suffer a loss, so just seventy taels! This is a good number."
Yuan Shu didn't believe his ears and repeated, "Seventy taels?"
Yan Xiao said with certainty: "Yes, seventy taels. Mr. Yuan, haven't you heard a sentence? This is smooth sailing, two dragons soar, three sheep prosper, peace all seasons, five blessings come to the door, six or six fortunes, seven stars shine high
, Money comes from all directions, ninety-nine are of the same mind, everything is perfect. Seventy taels, seven stars shining high, how wonderful, just like your business, it is booming."
"Then seventy taels!" Yuan Shu said with conviction,
Then, Yan Xiao discussed the monthly payment with his mother-in-law, and finally gave her a monthly payment of 400 yuan. After everything was settled, Yuan Shu said: "Ms. Yan has chosen, then I will
Take the other four down, Madam Yan, Madam Qiao, please sit down for a while, and I will prepare the deed."
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Yuan." Yan said with a smile.
Yuan Shu then led these people down, and Yan Xiao sat back down. He looked at the woman he had chosen, and she looked kind-hearted.
Within a moment, Yuan Shu came with the deed and cinnabar. The deed was made in triplicate. One copy was held by Yanxiao, one by Yuan Shu, and the other was to be sent to the Yamen for filing. The deed stated clearly
After buying the mother-in-law's name, age and money, as well as the identities of the buyer and seller. After Yan Xiao read the deed and found out there were no problems, she signed her name. Since she didn't have a private seal, she pressed her fingerprints. After everything was completed
, Yan Xiao took out one hundred taels of silver and gave it to Yuan Shu. Under the gaze of Yan Xiao and Qiaoyun, Yuan Shu very slowly found thirty taels of silver and gave it to Yan Xiao. Yan Xiao took the silver quite calmly and put it into his money bag.
.Then he put away his own copy of the deed, took Mother Sun with him, and said goodbye to Yuan Shu and went out to Yaxing.
After the group got on the carriage, Yan Xiao asked a little scared: "Sister Qiaoyun, did you threaten him like this just now, will it bring you any trouble?"
Qiaoyun said: "It doesn't matter. Besides, what I just said is true. He did trick me on the price of the people I bought from him before. Today I just want to get back a little interest. Besides, he
He is a shrewd person and will not ruin his own brand just because of thirty taels of silver."
Yan Xiao nodded and said, "It was all thanks to Sister Qiaoyun's sharp tongue and her ability to fight off Yuan Shu. Otherwise, I would have had to hire just one person to go back with my one hundred taels of silver."
"I know that person's nature. He will pick out a new customer like you. He will talk beautifully and praise you so that you won't be able to find his faults."
Yan Xiao nodded, agreeing with Qiao Yun's view.
"What should you do next? Do you need me to take you back?" Qiaoyun asked.
Yan Xiao shook his head and said: "No need for now. If they know that I know such a powerful sister like you, I don't know how much trouble they will have. Mother Sun and I went to the vegetable market to buy some vegetables, and by the way, we also bought some supplies for Mother Sun.
s things."
Qiaoyun nodded, sent Yanxiao and Yanxiao to the vegetable market, and then left. This chapter has been completed!
