Chapter 60:

Qiao Qiao said, "You can't afford long-term workers, but you can't mess around. Some people are lazy, and you can just leave it to Xiao Xun. This kind of thing is better than nothing ..."
You Miao followed Qiao Ye, and Qiao Ye turned back and said, "Although Li Zhiyu's service to you is very good, there are few people who can't make it happen. I originally wanted to send you a few people around me, but now everyone in the tea house Bought by that woman. I'm just an obedient ... "
Miao Youmiao said: "I don't bring people from Biyu Mountain because of this ..."
Qiao Qiao said, "I'll buy you a few clever ones. You have to put them in and out of the house. Would you like a girl or a little girl?"

58, Volume Two Butterfly Love Flowers
The two men stood in front of Xiaoer'er City, and the rows were full of people. Each of them was shameless, and they couldn't keep an eye on You Miao and Qiao Yan. You Miao was finally shocked. I have never seen it before, but now I have come into contact with it. This is selling people. Men and women, young and old, clearly marked price, high short, young, strong, as long as you have money, you can buy it.
This is not the same as human traffickers, who are going to be arrested by the government. People here are willing to sell themselves, just to dine, and you feel a bit speechless for a long time.
Qiao Qiao rubbed her elbow and said, "Are you asking, do you want a man or a woman?"
Wu Youmiao said, "I ... I don't know."
You Youmiao suddenly felt sour when she saw it. He had a good life, really a good life. If he was born in such a family, he would probably be a life waiting to be sold by his father and mother.
You Youmiao said, "Buy a boy."
"Choose our house." A man in his thirties was busy and said, "My wife is gone. Just my two sons. You take us all. I will take care of the garden for you. I can grow the land and my son will give you. handle."
When You Youmiao was tempted, Qiao Yan said, "How old is your youngest son and what can you do?"
The man laughed, "Everyone is obedient, and he is eleven years old this year."
Wu Youmiao said, "What about the eldest son?"
The man said, "Big sixteen."
Qiao Qiao asked the child to open his mouth to see if his teeth were incomplete. The big boy was holding a little boy, all tanned, and looked at You Miao with caution.
"Call Master," the man whispered.
Talking about two children just didn't say a word.
Wu Youmiao said, "I'll stop."
Qiao Qiao asked the man, "What's your last name? Is the household registration paper tape brought? No debt?"
The man said with a grin: "If you go back to my master, my surname is Song, and the Jiaozhou people owe debts and owe the landlord's family seven dollars ..."
The man gave out the IOU to see, Qiao Yue Chao You Miao said: "It is not cost-effective, look over there."
Qiao Qiao dragged You Miao to let go, but You Miao turned back and asked, "Why did you come to Yangzhou?"
"Go." Qiao Yan whispered in You Miao's ears: "You are here to recruit people, not to be a living Bodhisattva."
The man named Song chased You Miao and said, "Master! Master! My daughter-in-law died of illness. My father passed me two acres of Botian, and he could n’t pay the rent. The landlord also accepted it. I ca n’t afford the money that the doctor borrowed ... ... and I have no money to bury my son's mother ... The young master has pity on me, so I can eat ... "
Qiao Qiao smiled and said, "Don't trust them all, half true, half false, just listen."
You Youmiao nodded and simply stopped talking. The two walked across half a street, and either one of them had to sell or find a job. You Miao now knows that there are so many people who have no land and cannot even support a family. Qiao Zheng explained to You Miao that these people had no land and ran out to make ends meet.
This year is not to say that there are meals in a few acres of land. People grow things and sell the harvest. The price of rice is controlled by the merchants. They plant a few acres of thin fields. Only for the family. And in case of drought and floods, bad harvests, and coping with miscellaneous donations, you have to offset the land and ask the landlord to borrow money. Li Guanli had no money to pay back, and the land was collected, so he went to work as a long-term worker, could not pay the rent, owed a debt, and could not afford the rent of the court.
He stayed in his place of origin and couldn't afford the debt, so he had to take his children to arrive.
You Miao listened to it with a puff in her heart. At the beginning, that joy was gone, and the two walked through the market. Suddenly, the western head Yushu of Ershi stood in the wind and stood alone. She was standing and eating something. It's Li Zhihuan.
烽 Li Zhiquan was eating a sesame cake while looking down at the two children kneeling in front of him.
"Li Zhihuan!" You Miao said.
Li Zhiquan saw You Miao coming, so he took out a bunch of sugar gourds from his arms, and You Miao found out the fried fish he bought for him, and Li Zhihua took it.
Qiao Qiao looked at people from the other side, and You Miao asked, "Are the ships hired?"
烽 Li Zhiquan nodded and said, "Once hired, I can leave tomorrow morning."
You Youmiao was eating a cantaloupe and Li Zhiying was eating fried fish. Both looked at the children who were kneeling in front of them. The two children were twins, holding a wooden board with the words "Sell Yourself and Bury Your Father" on it. There was a dead man behind him, covered with sackcloth, and the flies hummed.
"How come here," You Miao said.
Li Zhizhi said: "I heard that there is a job hunter here, and I want to come and buy you a few magpies and put them in the yard."
Tong Youmiao squeezed her eyes and said, "Are you impatient to serve me?"
Li Zhizhi ate by himself and said, "I am alone and can't see you. You have called me to work outside and there is no one around me. Find two little sisters, and let them do the chores, and I can follow you. . "
Youyou Miao nodded, reached out to pull Li Zhi's palm, and the two of them were holding each other with fingers, shaking, and said, "Have you held a sign like this before to buy?"
"Hehe." Li Zhihuan smiled fleshly and pulled the corner of his mouth.
You Youmiao couldn't help but want to tease him. Li Zhizheng said, "Give them one or two pieces of money and let them bury their father."
Looking at the young boys, though thin and small, they were very energetic, so they reached out and touched the money. Li Zhiquan asked, "How old are you?"
"Fifteen." A boy replied.
"What's your name?" Li Zhizhen asked again.
"My name is Mu Yan, and his name is Mu Feng." Another teenager looked at his brother and looked at Li Zhihuan. You Miao said, "Who is the brother and who is the younger brother?"
The man who spoke first pointed to himself and said, "I am an older brother."
"Go and bury your father." You Miao gave them one or two pieces of silver. The twins got up and left immediately. Li Zhizheng said, "This is your young master. After finishing the work, I will go to the Yangzhou riverfront tomorrow morning. The pier is waiting. "
