Chapter 57 (1/2)
On the way back, mother Fang and Yuxi had a carriage.
Fang's mother said with a bitter face, ”girl, I don't know what to do with it.” Before that, she only calculated the expenses of each month. By the end of the month, she could add or subtract the remaining money and calculate the income.
”Yu Xi said with a smile:” then please a accountant, and don't let him squat in the shop every day, just come here every three to five to record the account
Fang's mother was in a bit of a dilemma: ”how about the salary?”
Yuxi said, ”give me two liang of silver a month According to modern theory, it's to find a part-time accountant.
Fang's mother felt that the money had been spent wrongly.
Yuxi shook his head and said, ”no rules, no rules. The business of baozi shop is so good. I'm going to open another branch shop when you teach these two people how to do it. If the account is not clear then, it will be easy for people to fish in troubled waters. ” Fang's mother now accepts two apprentices, both of whom have a body in hand, and Yuxi is not worried about their mischief.
Fang's mother thought Yuxi had a point, so she no longer objected.
Yuxi said: ”Mom, she will come to the mansion in two days. It's hard for me to go out of the mansion again. If she has something, she will ask Hongshan's sister-in-law to help deliver the message. If there's something particularly important, you can come into the house yourself. ”
Fang's mother was a little relieved and said, ”girl, you should learn from Mr. Song and his mother.” If we learn well, we will be able to marry a good family in the future.
Entering the city, Yuxi and Fang's mother are separated. Hongshan then said, ”girl, if you open another bun shop, can you let my sister-in-law go to the shop to help?” The assistant on the buns shop pays 800 yuan a month. In addition, they also have breakfast. They are busy arranging other time in the morning. This treatment is really good. You know, her monthly salary for a first-class servant girl is 800 yuan.
”Yu Xi said with a smile,” wait for the shop to open. Now it's too early to say that. ”
Just as he was talking, suddenly the carriage came to an emergency stop. In the event of an emergency, Yuxi responded quickly, grabbing the edge of the carriage with both hands, and didn't let herself bump into the carriage. Hongshan didn't react as fast as Yuxi. She hit her forehead on the carriage and got a big bag.
Hongshan angrily lifted the curtain of her car. Before she could question the coachman, the coachman hurriedly explained, ”Miss Hongshan, a girl suddenly rushed to the road. I'm afraid I'll stop the carriage if I bump into her.” It's a man, not a beast, and the coachman stops by reflex.
After hearing this, Hongshan saw a girl lying in front of the horse two steps away. She was young and in her teens. She would fall on the ground with a pale face, clothes and blood. She looked like a ghost.
Hongshan was so scared that she went back to the carriage.
Yuxi is curious to see Hongshan like this. Open the curtain and look out. Before she had any idea, two people ran in front of her.
The two people running here are both big five and big three. The man with a mole on one of his faces saw the girl on the ground and shouted, ”here you are.”
With that, he strided over. The eagle grabbed the girl lying on the ground like a chicken. Then he hummed, ”you run, why don't you run? Do you have the ability to run again? ”
The girl's eyes were full of despair.
Yuxi looked at the despair in the girl's eyes, and did not know how to think of her death in the thatched cottage. At that time, she was so desperate. Yuxi's heart trembled, shouting at the mole man, ”put her down.”
Hongshan immediately put down the curtain and said to Yuxi, ”girl, it can't be saved. It's not a good person to look at these!” The girl must have escaped slavery.
Moles man turns his head and sees Yuxi's carriage and several servants around him. He knows it's a rich family. In the capital city, there is still some eyesight, and these two people dare not offend. Now they say loudly: ”girl, this is our girl in Chunxiang building. She's waiting for the chance to escape. We're going to take her back. ”
When Hongshan heard Chunxiang building, her face changed: ”girl, this can't be managed.” Chunxiang building is a brothel! How can we get girls to get in touch with brothels.
Contrary to Hongshan, Yuxi is relieved to hear that the other side is Chunxiang tower. The people in chunxianglou are easy to deal with. As long as the price starts, even Huakui can buy it, let alone a teenage girl: ”how much is it? I'll take it. ”
A strange color flashed on the man's face: ”I can't be the master of this matter. If you want to buy it, you have to ask our manager.”
Yuxi doesn't care about the mole man, but asks the girl who is caught by the mole man: ”how much money are you worth?” To be able to escape from Chunxiang building means that this man is courageous and not afraid of death.
There was a glimmer of hope in the girl's eyes, a glimmer of hope: ”twenty Liang.”
Yuxi said to the mole man, ”I'll pay five times as much for her. What do you think?”
Mole man listened to this, some hesitation.
The little girl's hope for survival emerged in her heart, staring at the mole man and saying, ”if you must catch me back, I will not live.” She would rather die than be like these people.
