Qin Mian and Lei Tia pla ed to gather all of the people in the manor. The eatery in the town was too small, and the people in the eatery who wanted to sell were also too mixed, their quality was not good enough. The two of them came to Zhaoyang County City to take a look, and also went for a stroll.
The county city and town were different. The level of liveliness alone was not something that Flowing Water Town could compare to. People were coming and going at the city gates. After depositing the cart at the ox-horse station, the two of them walked into the city. Qin Mian looked at the spacious street, the beautifully dressed pedestrians and rows and rows of shops.
"To Long Gate Street? It's very lively there." Lei Tia asked for his wife's opinion, and felt pity in his heart. This was the first time his daughter-in-law came to the county, so it was only right for him to have a good time.
Qin Mian said: "No need, I'll just casually stroll around." As a transcender, he had only seen ancient styles of towns and cities on television or in movies before. Now that he was in such a situation, he did have a bit of interest in them.
The things inside the town were much more exquisite, higher grade, and more variety than those in the town. Qin Mian excitedly went to a fabric shop, a jewelry store, an iron shop, and even entered a big restaurant. He walked around the room and glanced at the dishes on the table. The waiter, who introduced the dishes to them with great enthusiasm, rolled his eyes in frustration.
Lei Tia walked beside him in silence the entire time. Qin Mian looked around with interest, while he looked at the various expressions on Qin Mian's face.
If the waiter had also transmigrated here, perhaps he would not be able to resist but curse at the two of them, "Snake essence disease!"
No one knew each other. Qin Mian didn't care what the waiter was thinking, and pulled Lei Tia to two of the dim sum stores to take a look. He asked carefully, but didn't buy anything.
Lei Tia could tell that he was thinking about some idea to earn money.
After walking for nearly two hours, Qin Mian asked the owner of a shop about the location of the dentition shop and directly went there with Lei Tia.
The dentists in the county town were more imposing than those in the town, and there were many more people they could choose from than those in the town. Upon hearing that they were going to buy people, the boss of the tooth bank called everyone out and lined up in a few rows for Qin Mian to choose from.
Qin Mian was still not used to picking people like picking goods, but he had no choice but to do so.
He first picked out a couple under forty. Their clothes were very old with patches on them, but they were clean and not slovenly. The man was called Uncle Fu, he was healthy and was good at farming. The woman was Aunt Fu, she could farm, cook, sew, mend and make clothes. She could help Tian Curie wash the dishes, wash the clothes, feed the chickens and so on.
Qin Mian thought that since Lei Tia was his man, he had to be good to him. He couldn't let him wash the dishes for the rest of his life.
He picked a young man who knew how to drive, called Gou Wa, twenty years old. His hometown had been affected by a drought, and he was the only one left in his home.
Qin Mian and Goudan'er chatted for a while. Feeling that Goudan was very quick-witted, knew how to farm and drive carriages, Qin Mian bought him to be a coachman.
All three of them signed a death contract for a total of thirty-two silver.
On the way back, it was Koga driving the oxcart very steadily.
"Kid, what's your name?" "Koga is too unpleasant to listen to." Qin Mian asked.
Kampa said with a grin, "To reply the Young Master's words, I don't have a big name."Young Noble, please bestow your name."
Qin Mian felt a little awkward, "What do you mean by not giving? "But the name 'Gouva' is indeed unpleasant to hear. How about I give you a name called Joy?"
Kampa said happily, "Thank you, Young Master. This name sounds good, but in the future, this one will be called Joy."
Qin Mian said: "Don't call me 'little one', just say 'I'. Your eldest young master and I are very easy to get along with, so you don't have to be too formal. After all, if nothing unexpected happens, you will have to stay in the Lei Family your entire life. I wish we could have a good time together. As long as you do your duty and do not make any big mistakes, we will not do anything to you."
"Please rest assured Eldest Young Master and Young Master, I will definitely do my job well in the future!" He did not even dare to look at the Young Master directly, but he felt that Qin Mian was a kind master.
Uncle Fu and Aunt Fu looked at each other and felt a little apprehensive about the future, but they also heaved a sigh of relief. Even though they weren't free, they wanted to settle down.
Qin Mian thought for a while, then said: "I'll buy some bowls, chopsticks, pots and shovels from the town. Before they even made their happy home, they had already teamed up with Uncle Fu and Aunt Fu. As for the future matters, we will talk about them later."
Aunt Fu hurriedly replied, "Yes, Young Master."
She and Uncle Fu did not look like they were people with words. This was more to Qin Mian's liking.
"Tie, do you have anything to add?" Qin Mian asked Lei Tia.
Lei Tia was startled, "Why are you calling me?"
Qin Mian raised his eyebrows, "Iron."Can't you?" He didn't think it was nice enough to have a full name.
"As long as you like it." Lei Tia embraced his waist, and stuck his lips on his forehead, "There's nothing to add."
Qin Mian didn't push him away, instead, he paid attention to the reaction of the Uncle Fu s.
Aunt Fu didn't seem to think much; she was startled and immediately lowered her head.
Qin Mian laughed, and relaxed as he leaned against Lei Tia's body, not saying anything. He didn't expect the three of them to immediately accept his relationship with Lei Tia, but at least they couldn't reject it.
When the ox-cart reached the town, Qin Mian bought some pots and pans. Uncle Fu, Aunt Fu and Pleasure didn't have much luggage, so he bought three sets of clothes made of coarse cloth, some cloth and some other daily necessities for each of them.
Qin Mian also bought some flour and rice. He and Lei Tia both liked to eat rice, hence the consumption of rice at home was very fast.
The ox-cart drove into Tian Curie's courtyard. Seeing the beautiful scene, Uncle Fu, Aunt Fu and Le Yue were all stu ed. Was this the place where they were going to live? Would they live in such a beautiful place?
Qin Mian laughed, "Come with me to your place first, after you have finished packing, you can stroll around Tian Ji Li, and familiarize yourself with your new environment."
Uncle Fu and the other two immediately retracted their gazes.
"Yes, Young Master."
After following Qin Mian to the servants' room, the three of them were stu ed once again. The house was new, not a thatched hut or a log cabin, but a redbrick house with black tiles. The windows were bright and clean, and there were tables, chairs, and even new quilts and quilts on the bed. This was many times more than when they used to live in their own houses!
Qin Mian arranged for them: "Uncle Fu, Aunt Fu, you will live in the first house; Joy, you will live in the second house, and if there are servants entering the house in the future, you will have to share a house with them. Of course, if you get married in the future, you can also live in a house by yourself like the Uncle Fu."
It was hard to conceal his excitement as he replied, "Yes, Young Master! Thank you, Young Master! "
Qin Mian explained the contents of the three people's work clearly before he said, "You three only eat and sleep here, the monthly salary is tentatively set at fifty coins, and you guys would pay extra during the holidays as well as when you are busy with farming. Three meals a day, you can set up your own company. Breakfast and lunch are pasta, lunch is rice, all of you can be full. Of course, do not waste it. Vegetables were grown by their own families, and there were plenty of them. I'll give you guys ten catties of meat every month. Whether you finish your meal or eat it sparingly for a month, you guys can decide for yourself."
Uncle Fu, Aunt Fu, and Pleasure looked at each other in shock, feeling uneasy.
Joy was the first to speak, "Young Master, this arrangement is too good. We can just make people two meals a day."
Qin Mian smiled, "Once you enter our house, you will do so according to our rules."You don't have to feel ashamed. Just work harder."
Uncle Fu and the other two agreed in unison.
Lei Tia glanced at the oxcart and happily brought down a bag of flour and a bag of rice.
Qin Mian said: "Today, you don't have to do anything. You can stroll around, and then start working tomorrow."
"Thank you young master, thank you Young Master!"
After giving out all the instructions, Lei Tia brought Niu De and Qin Mian and prepared to leave.
Joy quickly walked over and respectfully said, "Eldest Young Master, let me do it. Is that an ox barn over there? I'll bring the stuff over and bring the cart back."
Qin Mian praised him as he looked at him.
Due to the exterior wall, the house's courtyard wall was demolished a few days ago. His vision became wider. When they arrived at the entrance of Qin Mian and Lei Tia's residence, they quickly moved the things on the carriage into the house.
Qin Mian took a piece of ten kilograms of cured meat from the kitchen and brought it back happily. Then, he began to busy himself and Lei Tia's lunch.
"Wifey, what are you buying this for?" Lei Tia came in with three bells.
Qin Mian looked at it, " Oh, I almost forgot. This place was too far from the servants' room, so it would be inconvenient to look for them. Didn't I buy three different colored ropes? You tie three bells to the rope, in the rooms of the three of them, and you tie the other one to our side. If they had something to do, they would pull the rope and the bell would ring. The black rope is the Uncle Fu, the red rope is the Aunt Fu and the grey rope is Joy.
"My wife is very smart." Lei Tia said.
"That's a must." Qin Mian turned his head with pride, and was kissed on the lips by Lei Tia precisely. Before he could say anything, Lei Tia took the bell and rope and walked out leisurely.
Smothering." Qin Mian muttered as he hummed to himself.
When Lei Tia returned, he tied three ropes to the window frame of the living room.
Qin Mian mentioned another thing, "Do you remember the last time we dug a pond, we said that we wanted to invite Grandma and Aunt and the others to come and see the flowers?"
"I remember." Lei Tia asked, "How many days is it?"
Qin Mian nodded his head, "I should quickly invite them to come over and play, so as to not worry about this matter forever."
Lei Tia said: "I'll go to Deng Family Village tomorrow morning."
After Qin Mian finished making the noodles, Lei Tia took it out and left.
Qin Mian laughed and followed behind him with two pairs of chopsticks.
He sat down on the chair and felt that the noodles were especially fragrant today."As of today, the matters of the manor have been settled. You can relax for a few days."
Lei Tia said: "After Grandma and the rest leave, I will bring you to the mountain."
"Sure." Qin Mian nodded while eating the noodles, "It's spring now, the scenery on the mountain must be very beautiful. Take your bow and arrows and hunt."
Lei Tia nodded, then suddenly asked: "Do you still remember your birthdate?"
"28 March." Qin Mian looked up and smiled at him, "What? You want to give me a present? "
"Yes." Lei Tia did not deny it.
Qin Mian laughed joyfully, "Oh, that's right, your??" Before he could finish his words, he suddenly remembered that Lei Tia's birth mother died in childbirth, which meant that Lei Tia's birthday was the Deng Family's a iversary.
Without waiting for Lei Tia to speak, he said, "From now on, you will be my birthday."
"Alright." Lei Tia raised his hand and wiped the sauce off the corner of his mouth with his thumb.
After di er, Lei Tia went to wash the dishes.
Qin Mian took out a notebook and pen to write on the table.
Lei Tia came out to wash the dishes, sat down beside him and wrapped her arms around his waist.
"Write what?"
"Billing." Qin Mian said, "In the past, it was only the two of us so we wouldn't need to keep an account. But now that there are three more people at home, it's best to remember the balance of payments clearly. If anything happens in the future, there will be a basis for it."
"Sell it if you make a mistake." Lei Tia said indifferently.
Qin Mian nodded his head, "If they were to make a huge mistake, I would definitely not allow them to live."
