The meal was both exciting and boring.

The excitement is naturally because the food is delicious. Whether it is the seasonings sprinkled on the barbecue or the barbecue itself, many of them are things these beggars have never seen before.

What kind of beast is that from? That chewy texture, that slippery feel, it’s such a damn pleasure.

What's even worse is that there is actually wine. I heard that it takes 3,000 sesame seed cakes to exchange for a pot of wine in Daguanlou. Everyone didn't drink much, just a small sip, and probably dozens of sesame seed cakes were gone.

Cool!

As for dullness, aren't you scared when there is a companion next to you who wails a few words from time to time? Do you dare to talk nonsense?

Yang Zhen did not eat, but kept a warm smile on her face. She was grilling meat, dipping sauces, and sharing wine with these people, doing it leisurely.

He didn't let these people eat more.

Guessing that it was almost done, he stopped adding more meat and looked at the wailing guy.

"May I have your name?"

"Little one, call, call, Liu Hao." The man's face was covered with sweat, his voice was hoarse and weak.

"His nickname is Mouse!" Yang Mabu interrupted.

"Well, come here!" Yang Zhen waved to this person.

Liu Hao gritted his teeth and stood up, staggering over.

Yang Zhen's left hand rested on his broken arm, emitting a green light.

With his ability at this time, there was nothing he could do to deal with the fracture. In fact, it was Yiyi who was being treated.

After a while, the pain on Liu Hao's face disappeared, and he turned to a look of surprise.

The beggars still don’t understand that they are using magic to treat them!

If Yang Zhen had broken this man's arm just now, some people were secretly still not convinced and wanted to seek justice after eating and drinking. When he saw this hand, he understood that the young man in front of him was an unattainable immortal. He was immediately discouraged and no longer dared to think anything wrong.

"Go, wash your face and hands, I'll keep these barbecued meats for you!" Yang Zhen ordered.

Liu Hao didn't dare to say anything anymore. He quickly picked up the barrel and rushed out. In less than half a quarter of an hour, he hurried back, grabbed the barbecue in the round basin and stuffed it into his mouth.

Yang Zhen was too lazy to care about him, pointed at the other person and asked, "What's your name?"

This is a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, with a dark appearance. He should be the oldest among these people.

Yang Zhen had just carefully observed that he should be the leader of this group of people.

"The younger one's name is Jiang Shun." The man replied respectfully.

"Well, Jiang Shun, and you, Yang Mabu, ask everyone, do you want to beg like this all your life? Or do you want to have a warm and stable place to live, with food and drink every day, copper coins, clean clothes, and even …”

"I can still marry my mother-in-law in the future."

A few people were a little indifferent to the previous words, but the last sentence made all the beggars’ eyes light up, and they almost said in unison:

"think!"

"Okay!" Yang Zhen stood up: "If you want to live a good life, come with me now. I will take you to the city and live in another apartment. If you don't want to, I won't force you. Even if I treat everyone to this meal of."

"Also, if you want to come with me, please clean these stoves and plates before leaving!"



When Yang Zhen went down the mountain, nine teenagers followed her.

There were eleven people in total, but two of them hesitated for a long time and decided to stay on the mountain.

Yang Zhen doesn't care. You only have one chance. Since you gave up, you can't blame others.

Surprisingly, Liu Hao, who had been beaten, was very positive and was the first to follow him out of the Taoist temple.

The group returned to Zhuyang County. Yang Zhen took them all the way, first to the grocery store and bought sets of bedding, iron pots, porcelain bowls, spoons, tongs, rolling pins, kitchen knives, vegetable grates, etc., as well as sweeping brooms and brooms. As well as washbasins, towels, soap locusts, etc., one store was not enough, so I went to several more and finally bought all these things.

Then, we went to a ready-made clothing store and bought three sets of clothes and shoes for each person, including cotton-padded clothes and regular clothes.

Yang Zhen put all the small items, those that were difficult to hold, and those that were heavy, into storage bags. As for bedding and the like, they are tied up and each person carries one piece in his hand.

When these beggars saw that Yang Zhen was going on a shopping spree and was willing to buy so many items for them, the doubts and uneasiness in their hearts gradually dissipated. They all smiled and became more and more obedient to Yang Zhen's instructions.

Finally arriving at the newly purchased house, Yang Zhen pushed open the door and asked everyone to put down their things before calling them all over.

"This house will be for you to live in from now on!" he said loudly.

All the beggars had disbelief on their faces. Seeing that his expression was serious and he was not joking, they started jumping up and down, shouting and making a fuss.

Others covered their faces and cried loudly.

Yang Zhen allowed them to vent their anger. After a while, he calmed down and asked everyone, "Which of you can read?"

Everyone looked at each other, and after a while, seven people raised their hands, including Jiang Shun, Yang Mabu, and Liu Hao.

Yang Zhen was greatly surprised. After asking, she found out that these people were similar to Tiezhu, and they all had the experience of being adopted sons in big families. Also after the age of twelve, some children either do not want to be mistreated and run away from the master's house; some work and fish, and are expelled from the master's family; there are also those whose master's family cannot afford to support them and let them leave.

The remaining two who were illiterate were born in poverty. Their families suffered disasters and they had no choice but to go out to find food.

Of course, the literacy of these people is limited to those common words, as well as their own names.

However, this already made Yang Zhen overjoyed.

Then, he pointed at Jiang Shun and Yang Mabu and said: "There are nine of you, considered a team. Of the two of you, one (Jiang Shun) is the captain and the other (Yang Mabu) is the vice-captain."

"For the houses in this and the second, you two will arrange for everyone to choose a room later. If there is no bed in the room, I will arrange for someone to send it over in the next two days."

"There is a well in the middle of the yard. I will heat up a large pot of hot water later. Everyone must be cleaned and put on new clothes before they can sleep!"

After both of them expressed their understanding, Yang Zhen faced everyone and continued:

"Next, let me tell you what you are going to do, as well as your reward..."

As soon as these words came out, these people all pricked up their ears, and their eyes shone with anticipation.

"My yard, the innermost one, will be used as a warehouse in the future. Your job is to guard the warehouse!"

"As for remuneration, first of all, each person will have thirty copper coins as living expenses per day. For the nine of you, the total is three hundred. The extra thirty will be used as your communal fund!"

"Every month, each person will be paid one hundred copper coins. This is the temporary standard. If you perform well in the future, you will be given more!"

The salary Yang Zhen gave them was not low, equivalent to ten silver coins per person per month. This was already the income of a handyman in a big family like the Zhao family. Of course, food and accommodation are included in the latter, but accommodation is only included here.

Therefore, as soon as he finished speaking, all the beggars cheered and praised repeatedly, "Young Master is a good man!" "Young Master is getting rich!" "Young Master is rich and powerful!"

Yang Zhen sneered in her heart. He didn't believe that these beggars, who were used to being lazy and bullying others, could change their minds and work well with just these favors.

"The next step is to listen to the rules you have to abide by."

He glanced at everyone, his expression suddenly turned grim.
