Rebirth As Richest Lady: Coddle Regent

C118

The dealer's face stiffened. "Miss, you're being too .."

Wen Jiu raised his eyes, "When I'm willing to reason with you, you better listen carefully. Otherwise, do you think my elder brother is a vegetarian? "

"How dare you!" An older middle-aged man walked over with a smile on his face, "Mo is surnamed Li, and is the steward of the Qian Jin exchange floor, and is also a regular customer with wine in this room. Since Boss Wen had asked for it, let's take it for a hundred taels! No need to mention General Xie, no need to mention .. "

With that, he gave the peddler a meaningful glance.

Who didn't know the way the Little Tyrant Xie behaved in the Dijing City? If they provoked him, he was afraid that a fire could burn down the entire building.

Wen Jiu passed the silver bills over and said indifferently: "Give me their indenture contract."

"Get their indenture contract."

Manager Li quickly instructed the person at his side, and then smiled at Wen Jiu. "Manager Wen, you and I are businessmen, so we should understand that those people who were picked up from the cold had spent a lot of money on them. The cost of a horse carriage is usually not small, it's only ten silver taels each. Originally, I didn't want to use it to earn money, but I did want to do a good deed for them so that they can have a roof over their heads and eat warm meals.

Wen Jiu's lips curved up in a cold smile, and did not reply to his words.

Looking at their disheveled and disheveled clothes that were rolled up together, he suddenly thought of his past self.

Escaping the Changping County together with Meng Chengyun during the night, and on the way to the Dijing in the north, they met with calamity, there were displaced people everywhere, and the upper echelons of the imperial court were doing nothing, such as selling wives and children and girls.

She and Meng Chengyun had once been tied up on a simple wooden platform, traded away like animals. If she did not meet Su Ruoshui, she would not have lived past that year.

Afterwards, Meng Chengyun told her: I must become a great man in this life! But at that time, Wen Jiu only wanted to seek peace in this world.

"Boss Wen?" Manager Li passed the indentations to her for a long time. She did not see Wen Jiu accept it and could not help but to remind her.

"Jiu."

Xie Xuan stood by her side, and called out to her in a low voice.

Wen Jiu raised his eyebrows, looked at the youth for a good while, and only then did he regain his senses.

In this life, if not for the presence of Xie Family, who knows where she would be right now.

Xie Xuan looked at her for a moment, then replied "En."

Her mind was at peace. With a smile, she narrowed her eyes. However, the youth did not know why she was so sorrowful. He turned his gaze to the other side.

Manager Li quickly said: "This is their indenture contract, Boss Wen wants some?"

Wen Jiu accepted it, all the names that were signed on the indenture contract were all twisted, she pointed at each of them and said, "Lu Cui, Li Shan, Jiang Yue .."

The group of elderly and children were trembling as they each replied to him. This was a stark contrast to the bustling scene in the other side of their lives ..

Many people who couldn't squeeze in to see the West Chu beauty turned to Wen Jiu's side and said, "Looks like General's Mansion are really very poor. Buying servants will pick out these old, weak, and handicapped people who no one wants .."

"The old and the young, they are all people who can only eat but not work. Even if you give them to me, I can't take them for free."

"This Young Madame usually looks pretty capable, but he's actually just an embroidered pillow!"

The bystanders laughed at the freshness, and the group of old and young people became increasingly cowardly, not even daring to raise their heads.

Wen Jiu turned around and directly threw the stack of indenture contracts into the furnace. As his plain sleeves fluttered, the flaming xuan paper ferociously rose higher, and the crowd, who were still spectating just now, abruptly retreated.

The ashes scattered in all directions, and the fire made the young girl's pretty face look even more gorgeous.

Wen Jiu said: "Those who have homes to return to can leave by themselves. Those who have nowhere to return to, follow me back to the General's Mansion."

A dozen or so people suddenly raised their head to look at her, the old man's eyes were filled with tears, the children however were filled with hope, they simultaneously kowtowed and said: "Thank you Young Madame!" "Thank you, young miss!" "Many thanks!"

The Miss Young Madame shouted and the joy in her voice could be clearly seen, the surrounding people were actually silent for a moment.

After signing the indenture contract and selling it to his master, he would be a slave for the rest of his life.

Without it, no matter how bitter and arduous he would be in the future, he could still be considered a human.

"Jin Er, bring them back to the residence!"

Wen Jiu did not look at it anymore as he turned around and walked out of the Thousand Gold Coins.

After walking more than ten steps, she raised her hand to touch the corner of her eyes. Suddenly, she remembered that Third Young Master was still inside, and turned around hurriedly. With a glance, she saw Xie Xuan standing behind her.

Wen Jiu paused for a moment, then smiled at him: "Third Brother... "You came out."

He almost threw the Third Young Master in exchange for the thousand gold.

So dangerous!

"You're crying."

Xie Xuan suddenly opened her mouth, her voice was cold, but it startled her.

"Of course not." Wen Jiu looked at him with wide eyes, and immediately denied: "How is that possible, at most, it's because my Dijing is too strong, and the wind is hurting my eyes."

Xie Xuan took out a brocade handkerchief from his sleeves and handed it to her, but Wen Jiu refused to accept it, "I really did not cry, for such a small matter, what reason do I have to cry?"

Wen Jiu: Could it be that in the eyes of the Third Young Master, I am that kind of weak girl who is on the verge of tears?

Pah pah pah!

Am I not suspecting that Third Young Master is blind?

"Trash."

Xie Xuan immediately threw the silk handkerchief at her face and walked forward gloomily.

Wen Jiu was shocked. He woke up early in the morning and perspired hot sweat all over his body. He should not be affected by the cold, and his tears should not have flowed uncontrollably.

She quickly used the handkerchief to wipe her nose and muttered, "There's nothing here .." Third Brother? Third Brother, where did you go so quickly? That is not the way back to General's Mansion. There is a vicious dog in the small alley in front of us, aiya! "

Just as he said that, he heard a few dogs barking.

In the blink of an eye, a few vicious dogs rushed out from the end of the alleyway.

Wen Jiu was shocked, he immediately grabbed a bamboo pole from the wall and swept it over, only to see Xie Xuan standing there unmoving, only his black hair flying around him, the wind blowing coldly around him.

The vicious dogs stopped two steps away from him. After staring blankly for a moment, they all ran away with their tails between their legs.

Wen Jiu was stunned for a moment, "..."

Why is it that dogs of this age bully the weak and fear the strong more than humans?

Xie Xuan turned and glanced at her.

"Third Brother."

Wen Jiu raised his lips, he noticed that Third Young Master's gaze was always on her, he lowered his head to look, and immediately threw the bamboo pole out, and acted as though nothing had happened: "Passing through this alley, there is a study in front, and there are many solitaries, Third Brother, don't tell me you want to buy books?"

She wouldn't say that Xie Xuan was actually a fool who didn't know his way around.

Raising an elder brother was a technical job!

Ordinary people really couldn't afford it.

Xie Xuan: "Mhm."

Wen Jiu heaved a sigh of relief and walked over: "It's good to buy books, I have silver here."

The corner of Xie Xuan's mouth curled up in an invisible curve, and he followed her towards the study room that she had never heard of.

"Ten years of hard work, reading ten thousand books."

Wen Jiu raised her eyes and asked him: "Does Third Brother want to be someone good too?"
