Fleeing from famine! A rough hunter has a fox husband

Chapter 391 Bought 8 People

"My Lord, this is my husband, and these two are my brothers."

"How did you get here?"

No matter how poor people were at that time, it was impossible for them to sell all their children. So they sold four of them at once, and they were all young people.

"My parents are dead. We have no choice. We were sold out by my grandparents and my uncle's family."

They never thought that one day they would be sold by their own relatives in exchange for just a dozen taels of silver.

"These are all honest people, but you see, the two little ones are already fifteen years old, so they can't be given away for free."

Qin Yan ignored that person and just looked at the others. The person who had just answered the question seemed a little anxious.

But they still didn't dare to say anything. If they didn't sell it, they would just sell it somewhere else.

When others saw that the family was not selected, they immediately began to recommend themselves.

"Master, I can work, and... and I can do everything. Please buy me."

A woman knelt down in front of Qin Yan and tried to get Qin Yan to buy her.

However, Qin Yan didn't even look at her, but just looked at the strong men and a few guys behind her.

Suddenly I saw a man about seventeen or eighteen years old at the back. He was quite strong.

Qin Yan walked up to him and asked:

"Can you work in the fields?"

The man looked up in fear, then said:

"meeting."

He didn't say more. He just answered whatever Qin Yan asked.

It wasn't until Qin Yan nodded that he realized he had been chosen, but...

The man knelt on the ground with a plop and said:

"Master, if you buy me, can you take my mother with you? I beg you."

He kowtowed directly to Qin Yan, who was confused:

"What about you?"

Qin Yan didn't see any other people around this man, and there were only men here.

The man from the dental clinic came over and said:

"Go away, this is my business, how can you decide for me?"

Then he said to Qin Yan:

"Don't blame me, sir. This man's mother has been ill for many days. But you know, we are just doing a small business here, and we don't have much money to treat them."

Now Qin Yan understood, which means that this person's mother is a patient.

Qin Yan didn't say anything and looked at the others again.

The dentist continued:

"If you don't mind, we can give her away for free. It's not a serious illness, just a cold. Maybe she can get better. Please consider it."

That person didn't want to keep such a patient here, so it would be good if someone could buy these two people away.

Even if I only collect money from one person, it is better than keeping it for two. These people all need to eat. It would be better to sell it if I were to waste firewood in this cold weather.

Qin Yan seemed to think about it before asking the price.

The man only said seven taels of silver, and Qin Yan immediately shook his head:

"Seven taels of silver is not enough for one person dragging another."

"Oh, this guy is strong. You see, he is less than 20 years old this year. He is young and strong and can do a lot of work."

Qin Yan still looked at the others. The man from the dental shop could only say:

"Well, how about five taels of silver?"

The man felt a pain on his face. If he didn't sell it, he would not even have that little bit left. Besides, the guy with a cold was still here. It would be bad if he infected other people.

Qin Yan thought about it and nodded:

"Okay, can you tell me the price of the four people I mentioned earlier?"

When the man heard this, he instantly became energetic and immediately said to Qin Yan:

"These guys are all young and strong, and can do a lot of work. The men weigh seven taels each, and the boys weigh four taels each."

Qin Yan thought about it and picked two more men.

A total of forty-one taels of silver were given.

Qin Yan took these people to buy new clothes, and then went to the inn and asked them to wash themselves and change into new clothes before coming out to see him.

Yes, Qin Yan just disliked that they were dirty. What if he took them back like this and offended his young husband?

These people were honest and obedient. The young man among the four that was chosen at the beginning even took the initiative to help the sick husband.

This made Qin Yan more satisfied.

"What are your names?"

"My name is Wang Daniu, and my husband's name is Li Qiu..."

The four people who were together said.

Wang Daniu is the oldest and knows how to farm. He is twenty-five this year and looks quite old. Qin Yan thought he was thirty.

Her husband, Li Qiu, also looks like an honest man. He doesn't talk much, but he can do laundry and cook.

Wang Daniu has two younger brothers. The man is called Wang Ershun, who is fifteen years old. He is smarter and can also work in the fields.

The younger brother is called Wang Chunmiao, and he is also fifteen years old.

This family all seem to have regular features, and their house and the crowd are not considered ugly.

The man who took the patient was named Zhang Hua. He was an honest man who didn't talk much. He was eighteen years old and looked good.

Very much like his mother, this guy in his thirties did not look old. Even though he was sick, he bowed respectfully towards Qin Yan.

"Hello, Master. My name is Zhang Mei. You can just call me Grandma Zhang."

The last two men we bought were both about 21 or 22 years old. One was called Wu Liu and the other was called Wu Yang.

Qin Yan was satisfied with these people, so he took them directly to the yamen and bought them some spare clothes, some cloth, quilts, etc. before going home.

Qin Yan didn't come out for long.

He was efficient in his work, and the people at the yamen quickly handled the registration of his servants.

On the way, Qin Yan told them about the situation at the Qin residence, and specifically told them not to meddle in the affairs of the family members and masters, and not to tell anyone what they saw at home.

When several people saw Qin Yan's eyes full of hostility, they were instantly frightened.

Just now in the yamen, the yamen runners including the two adults were very respectful to Qin Yan, and I even heard them calling him "General".

Seeing Qin Yan's current state, they were sure that if they dared to disobey, they would be beheaded in the next second.

Even Zhang Hua and Grandma Zhang, who were always calm, didn't dare to look at Qin Yan's face for too long.

I thought that when I came to Huanghua City, I wouldn't have to live in fear like I did in the palace.

I didn't expect that I would have to go to the general's house this time. If the general has many wives and concubines, I'm afraid that honest people like them will be used as pawns again.

Grandma Zhang was very ill. She remembered that she and her son were sold by the palace and came here.

If their ex-wives hadn't intentionally protected them, they would have died long ago and would not have been sold.

When several people saw Qin Yan's fierce look, they didn't dare to speak for a moment, even the two younger ones didn't dare to speak.
