Chapter 261 Laishun

The large courtyard where the Xia family lives has received two new groups of tenants.

Coincidentally, on the same day that the new tenants moved in, Jiang's family also arrived.

They moved into a large car shop near the courtyard and rented a full berth. Probably because they saw the opportunity quickly and were well prepared, the family was neatly organized. After a lot of hard work and bumpy winds and waves on the road, they did not break.

damage.

Last time, they sent a message to the Xia family, telling them that they had taken a boat and traveled by sea to visit their relatives in Jixiang County. Xia Daohua began to keep an eye on where they lived.

At that time, Xia Daohua didn't know how many people there were in total, so she just made a rough estimate in her mind and asked acquaintances to help her look for a suitable yard.

I have looked at several places, both big and small, and found several places near and far. When the Jiang family comes, I will recommend the ones I think are suitable to them and let them go there in person.

Take a look and then make a decision.

In order to let the dental shop keep these yards and give priority to her family, she even bribed the manager of the dental shop and the dental people who were familiar with her.

This was not the first time that Yahang had dealt with Xia Daohua. He knew that she was 80% sure about this business, so he reluctantly followed her wishes.

In fact, unless you meet a particularly wealthy owner, the average person, whether buying or renting a house, should not be extremely cautious, choose carefully, think carefully, hesitate, and shop around?

Not to mention that Xia Daohua also gave extra money, but even without this, she would have to look at several more houses, and let the person who could decide whether to buy or rent a house come to see them before making a decision, which was also a reasonable request.

The dental shop is very considerate before the business is done.

After a business is done, it is often necessary to maintain a good reputation.

Even if you no longer buy a house, you may still want to buy a few acres of land to cultivate and a few servants to work with.

Even if your life gradually declines and you can no longer buy a house or land, you may have to sell your house, land or yourself in the future!

With this kind of incense and love, it leaves a good impression. If you have something to do or need, you will think of him first!

Therefore, each of these Ya people pay great attention to maintaining their reputation.

Unless they meet someone who is too difficult to get along with, everyone is very polite and easy to talk to, and their mouths are like honey.

With just a few words, you can make your guests smile and make them feel like they are enjoying the spring breeze. However, your tone and demeanor are very natural and not deliberate.

Xia Daohua has personally experienced this kind of treatment several times, and every time she can resist them from selling maids and servants to her, and she feels that she has extraordinary determination.

It felt a bit like being in modern society, smiling and politely rejecting those extremely enthusiastic card application masters.

After meeting the Jiang family, Xia Daohua told her about looking for a house. After getting the approval of the Jiang family, she contacted Laishun, a person she knew well.

As a result, as soon as they met, Laishun gave her a good sales pitch and tried every means to encourage her to buy a few girls back.

Xia Daohua was quite dumbfounded:

"Laishun, your good girl and good boy should be kept by others. I don't have enough status. Even if I can afford the money, I can't use it."

Xia Daohua looked helpless and once again refused without hesitation.

Lai Shun is not worried:

"Hey, Miss Xia, you are being too cautious.

Our great Chu Dynasty emphasized agriculture and suppressed commerce, and merchants were the last of the four peoples. But look, among the merchants with some money, which one is not a servant? Even among those wealthy locals who have hundreds of hectares of fertile land, who does not buy a few pieces of land?

Is there a girl to call upon?"

Xia Daohua smiled and shook her head. She didn't say anything more and just refused.

Lai Shun didn't bother much, he just said sincerely:

"This time, I personally handled these girls.

He is really a child of a good family, with a clean background. He is from Zhongzhou County and came here with his family to escape famine.

The family ran out of money and could no longer survive, so they sold them when they saw that they were about to starve to death.

His personality is quite simple and peaceful, his hands and feet are nimble, his mouth is clumsy, and he is obedient, and his appearance is not that coquettish.

They all signed death contracts with the tooth shop and sold themselves voluntarily. Even if their families become rich in the future, they will not be able to redeem them.

You don't meet such a good girl every day.

If you don’t take this opportunity to purchase a few, it won’t be easy to go out and find them now when you need more people in the future!”

Xia Daohua was somewhat interested in what he said, but then she thought about it, the Xia family's foundation is still shallow, they have only been in Jixiang County for a short time, and the mud on their legs and feet has not been washed away, so what kind of maid are they using?

Hearing him say that he was about to starve to death, he couldn't help but frown.

Ordinarily, Magistrate Yang and the Wang family have done a pretty good job in providing relief, so why would anyone be so miserable?

Laishun observed her words and seemed to know what she cared about, so he took the initiative to explain:

"This guy, sometimes he just doesn't have a lot of luck, I really can't accept it.

Among this group of little girls, the first one to sell herself was her younger brother who was ill. He spent every penny of his family's money seeking medical treatment, but half of his illness was cured. If he stopped taking the medicine, the remaining money would be lost.

All in vain...

The family had no other choice but to reluctantly sell her as the eldest sister.

Among these children, the last one sold himself. Less than half a day after he sold himself, the county government posted a notice to help the refugees. It said that for the refugees who came to this county, where could the young and strong work, where could the women and children receive relief food, and where could the elderly and the weak receive food?

Porridge water...

When the whole family heard about this, they hugged each other and cried. The reluctance to leave made even a hard-hearted person unable to help but shed tears.

But the deed has been signed, and if you want to regret it, just giving back the money you are worth is not enough."

After hearing this, Xia Daohua's face became serious.

Indeed, Magistrate Yang and Wang have done a very good job, but it is inevitable that there will be areas that cannot be taken care of.

For example, if this refugee is sick, where can he go to see a doctor and get medicine?

Magistrate Yang and the Wang family did set up several medical sheds.

However, these medical shacks are, at best, a drop in the bucket compared to the needs of the refugees.

The medicinal materials used were all bought on credit. This is not a long-term solution.

After all, you can't let other pharmacies and hospitals put money in!

Furthermore, even if pharmacies and medical clinics are willing to subsidize money, they cannot take care of so many people!

What's more, people also need to eat and drink at pharmacies and medical clinics, so how can they keep paying for it?

Xia Daohua was worried for a moment, then calmed down her expression, smiled again and shook her head:

"There's nothing we can do about it."

"I do need manpower. But what I need is not girls and boys who serve people and do menial work, but trustworthy and reliable shopkeepers, accountants, and stewards... Do you have such talents on hand?"

"This... I don't have anything ready-made. But this maid and boy are young and hard-working. If you cultivate them carefully, won't they be more reliable than those you find from outside?"

Good night.
