    Chapter 92

    Du Shaoxuan ran so fast that Mu Wanqing couldn't catch up.

    Du Shaoxuan rushed into the room and saw Mrs. Du's frightened look, and couldn't help but feel anxious. "Mother, what's wrong with you?"

    Madam Du stroked her pounding chest with one hand and pointed out the window with the other.

    Du Shaoxuan leaned over to take a look, and suddenly couldn't help laughing and laughing. There was a big pig's head underneath, which at first glance looked like a monster with a pig's head and a human body.

    He raised his voice and shouted, "Brother with the pig's head, what are you doing?"

    The man was stunned for a moment, looked up, and immediately took the pig's head in his hand, "I'm here to deliver, Mu's braised pig's head meat is delicious."

    Only then did Mrs. Du know that she had made a joke, and her face turned red.

    Mu Wanqing, who came a step late, saw it all in her eyes and smiled secretly, but pretended she didn't know anything, "Madam, my pig's head meat is soft but not glutinous, delicious and fragrant, why don't you have a portion?"

    Su Shi wrote an "Ode to Pork", "Huangzhou is good for pork, but the price is as cheap as dirt. The rich will not eat it, and the poor will not know how to cook it."

    That is to say, pork is not on the dinner table of the powerful.

    The lo mei she served to Mrs. Du had no pork, it was all marinated chicken and duck, and lo mein dishes.

    Many food ingredients in the snack street use pork, which is cheap and has many varieties.

    Mrs. Du wanted to refuse, but Du Shaoxuan's eyes lit up, "I want to eat."

    Okay, everything is based on my son's preferences.

    As soon as the braised pork head meat and fruit wine came to the table, Du Shaoxuan feasted on it, and it was particularly fragrant, "This is much better than braised duck legs and braised chicken wings. You prepare 100 catties of braised pork every day, and I will have someone come to pick it up."

    He planned to add a meal to his father and the soldiers.

    Mu Wanqing was overjoyed when she saw the business coming. "Okay, do you need anything else?"

    Du Shaoxuan shook his head slightly, "This is the best flavor, wait until you get tired of eating it and then change the pattern."

    "Okay, those people are eating slowly, I'm going to work."

    As soon as she left, Mrs. Du watched her son take one bite after another, unable to stop eating, and couldn't help asking, "Is it really so delicious?"

    Du Shaoxuan took a sip of the fruit wine, and the sweet taste made his eyes slightly narrow, "It's very delicious, suitable for side dishes, my father will like it."

    Mrs. Du was silent, plucked up the courage to take a piece of pork head and put it in her mouth, eh? No fishy smell? Fragrant, waxy and not greasy.

    She couldn't help but grab another piece, a little bit up.

    "Really pork? Is pork so delicious?"

    A smile flashed in Du Shaoxuan's eyes, "It should be said that Mu's pork is delicious."

    A spicy and fresh fragrance filled the air, and the mother and son of the Du family sniffed their noses at the same time. It was very fragrant.

    When Mu Wanqing served the spicy hot pot, Du Shaoxuan didn't hold back and ate the dish with a chopstick. The slightly spicy taste was just right.

    "Mother, try it too, it's not very spicy."

    Mrs. Du looked at the red oil dishes and shook her head slightly. She didn't eat spicy dishes.

    But, unable to resist Du Shaoxuan's persuasion, she reluctantly took a bite, and then... it was really fragrant.

    The chopsticks can't stop, the small wine and the spicy hot pot are a perfect match.

    Mu Wanqing brought dessert, "Come, try this ice powder."

    It's icy cold, tender and sweet, and it's so comfortable to eat in one bite.

    Especially when eating Mala Fragrant Pot, taking another bite of ice powder, the taste of happiness welled up in my heart.

    Mrs. Du liked this ice powder very much, and ate two bowls in one go, "Wanqing, your craftsmanship is so good, where did you learn all this?"

    Mu Wanqing had no appetite and only took a few bites of the ice powder.

    "I've been fast in everything since elementary school, and I can draw inferences from one case. I can figure out a lot of things from the details. I also read recipes like this in books. Of course, it can't be so detailed in books. I'm bold, careful, and good at thinking. Just go down to the kitchen and mess around."

    She perfectly explained the reason for her superb cooking skills.

    "Many things in this world are one-stop, one-knowing thousand."

    The world of genius, mortals do not understand.

    Du Shaoxuan said, "In the end, people are smart."

    "It's smart." Mrs. Du smiled and nodded. "Is there any ice powder? I want to take it back to my family to eat."

    "I have it, I will pack it for you."

    Before leaving, Mu Wanqing packed a bunch of food, and Mrs. Du happily invited Mu Wanqing to be a guest at the mansion another day.

    Mu Wanqing didn't take this kind of polite remarks seriously, she answered with a smile, and sent the person away respectfully.

    As soon as they left, Erye Mu and his wife ran out of the backyard, "How is it?"

    Some unreasonable nobles used to take out their anger, and Erye Mu was worried that Mrs. Du would vent her anger on them.

    Although they are already good people, they are the mistresses of this land.

    Mu Wanqing coaxed Madam Du very happily, just to avoid these troubles.

    She is not afraid of things, but there are too many troubles, which hinder her from pursuing her career.

    "It's going well. She won't be looking for trouble. In the future, if the Du family comes to buy something, we will deliver it ourselves. Don't pretend to be someone else. Usually, you have a lot of heart. If they come to buy it quietly, you shouldn't know."

    Eating is no better than anything else, it is too easy to be exploited.

    "Row."

    This matter came to an end, and Mu Wanqing was finally able to free up her hands.

    "Father, you go out with me, I want to buy some slaves."

    The Daqi Dynasty clearly stipulated that it was allowed to buy and sell slaves, and it was impossible for her to compete with the environment alone.

    Even if she wants to organize the company's employment system, there is no such soil.

    All she can do is to treat the slaves kindly and allow them to redeem themselves.

    One day she wants to leave, she will say goodbye.

    "Okay." Second Master Mu agreed immediately. There are really not enough people, and there are shortages of people everywhere.

    A family of five is busy every day without touching the ground, how can it go on like this?

    As soon as she heard that she was going to buy someone, Yu Wanrou, who was next door, quickly followed.

    Mu Wanqing found out about the most reputable Song Ya people in the city, and went directly to find them.

    Song Yaren was very enthusiastic, "Master, what do you want to choose?"

    The father and daughter had already negotiated before coming, and Erye Mu directly reported the demand, "The old mother who needs to do rough work, the driver, it would be better if there is a reliable housekeeper."

    "Housekeeper?" Song Yaren's eyes lit up, "Aren't you taboo?"

    It is not a problem for ordinary slaves to resell, but the housekeeper is different.

    Who will sell butler? Unless you have committed an unforgivable sin, or the master has committed something.

    Whether it is the former or the latter, it is quite taboo.

    Second Master Mu nodded slightly, "As long as you are of good character, competent, and understand your duty."

    There is a need for a steward on the farm, and now that he has been transferred, there is a shortage of people there.

    Song Yaren enthusiastically recommended, "Then I have a suitable candidate on hand, can you take a look?"

    "What's the situation?" Second Master Mu was a little curious, what a coincidence?

    Song Yaren sighed softly, "The previous master's family committed a crime, and all the slaves were sold. This housekeeper is filial, and he didn't want to sell it separately from his mother, so he dragged it down."

    Who is willing to buy one get one free and get an old lady back?

    Mu Wanqing asked softly, "What about the other family members?"

    "It was bought, and the housekeeper knelt down and begged me for a long time, asking me to choose a kind master for his family." Song Yaren obviously likes this housekeeper and highly recommends it, "but no one wants to buy this old mother. , this person, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, quite good."

    Mu Erye looked at his daughter, Mu Wanqing nodded slightly, "Let's meet then."

    When Mu Wanqing saw the mother and son, she couldn't help being stunned. "Is this sick?"

    The old lady was in her fifties, her face was flushed, her eyes were a little hard to open, and her breath was weak.

    The short man's face was full of anxiety, and with a plop, he knelt down in front of Mu Erye's father and daughter, "I beg you to give me some money..."

    Mu Wanqing sighed softly, remembering the difficulties on the road to exile, she took out a piece of silver and handed it over, "Don't say anything, just send the person to the hospital for treatment."

    Chen Zhong gave her a loud kowtow, and ran out with his mother on his back with red eyes.

    When Song Yaren saw this, he tried his best, "This family has a sick child, is poor on medicine, and has a very difficult life. They simply sold the whole family, and just wanted the whole family to be together, instead of choosing to sell the child. Rare."

    The ones he pushed over were the best, and Mu Wanqing also appreciated it.

    The Wu family consists of six members, a couple plus four children, two boys and two girls, all in their teens.

    Mu Wanqing was somewhat satisfied when she saw that their clothes were worn out, but they were washed cleanly.

    "What will they do?"

    Wu Dashan was a little nervous, "I can drive a car and do farm work. I am strong and can do rough work."

    His wife said cautiously, "I can do housework, both inside and out, even with a few children."

    Mu Wanqing asked a few more questions. Seeing that they were honest, if they would, they would, but they would not, so she nodded. "Dad, this is the place."

    Second Master Mu has no opinion, as long as his daughter is happy.

    Mu Wanqing also picked a young couple without children.

    The man was a dartist, named Li Ping'an. He was injured when he was escorting a dart. After the injury, he could no longer do this line of work.

    Women can also do some superficial work. Not long ago, they fell ill and had no money to treat. The couple simply sold themselves.

    Yu Wanrou chose three mothers and daughters. After the woman lost her husband, she was kicked out by her husband's family. The two acres of thin fields and a broken house were scraped clean by her husband's family.

    Orphans and widows have nowhere to go, so they sell themselves and find a place of shelter.

    The two daughters are also ten years old, which is just right for use. The woman is very capable and can do anything.

    In this way, their masters and servants can relax a lot.

    When going through the formalities, Mu Qingwan deliberately paid a few taels of silver, "If you have any good ones, feel free to come to me at the snack street in Nancheng. My surname is Mu, Mu Wanqing."

    This is because the people who see teeth are old-fashioned, and the people are also good, so gave more.

    Song Yaren narrowed his eyes with a smile, "Hao Le, don't worry."

    As soon as he got home, Mu Wanqing assigned the people. Li Ping'an knew how to punch and kick, and would follow Mu Erye in and out in the future. He was Mu Erye's personal entourage.

    Li's wife followed Mu Wanqing, and she needed someone by her side who could fight.

    The man of the Wu family served as the driver and the doorman, and Wu's wife and two daughters assigned them to Mrs. Mu to take care of the housework.

    The two sons were assigned to brothers Mu Ziang, one for each, and they should also be equipped with followers.

    "One tael of silver per month, four clothes for one season, and the cost of medical treatment can be reimbursed at ordinary times. If you want to leave, you only need to tell me a month in advance."

    Everyone looks at each other, is there such a good thing? This home is nice.

    Mu Wanqing looked at the people present and raised her eyebrows, "But in my house, I have to abide by the rules of my house, cannibalism, loyalty, if I find anyone who dares to eat inside and out, I will... send them away. go mining."

    She suddenly changed her face, and the coldness in her words shocked everyone.

    Mu Wanqing is completely operating as a company model. "The last rule is that if you work in my family for 20 years, my family will be responsible for the pension. After turning 50, you can receive a monthly pension. Birth, old age, sickness and death are all handled by my family."

    There is no eternal loyalty in this world, and it depends on whether the price of betrayal is worth it.

    Only by binding interests can we go further in the long run.
