"It's only forty taels. You can't lose this price."
"You have been keeping these three people in your hands for more than half a year. Selling them to me will save you a lot of trouble."
Yaren's expression struggled.
After a moment, he let go again.
"Fifty taels! The minimum is fifty taels for you!"
"Madam, I really can't sell it for less than this amount!"
Shen Shuangshuang still had no intention of giving in.
"Forty taels, I only offer this price."
"If you can't sell three of me at this price, then I'll pay eight taels and just buy a wife." Shen Shuangshuang said as if he didn't necessarily have to buy three people.
As soon as these words came out, the Wu family became frightened.
Especially Zheng, she almost knelt down to Shen Shuangshuang again.
It was Uncle Wu who was there and supported her, preventing her from kneeling.
Uncle Wu also looked very unhappy, but he forced himself to calm down.
Shen Shuangshuang caught a glimpse of this situation and pretended not to see it.
"Oh, madam!" Yaren was almost angry.
Seeing that Shen Shuangshuang really didn't mean to add anything, he finally said: "Forty taels of silver is really not enough. At least at this price, I can't make the decision here."
"Okay, madam, please wait here while I go ask the shopkeeper."
Shen Shuang finally showed a smile on his face.
"Sure! Then go and ask, I'll wait for you here!" he replied.
Yaren glared at Shen Shuangshuang resentfully before leaving.
After Yaren left, Shen Shuangshuang stood in the yard, staring at each other with the Wu family.
Of course, the main thing is that she stares at people.
None of the Wu family, except Uncle Wu, dared to look at her.
Shen Shuangshuang didn't speak to them.
None of the Wu family opened their mouths.
Not long after, Yaren came back, walking very fast with a smile on his face.
"Madam! Oh, congratulations, madam! The shopkeeper has answered! I will give you three of them for forty taels!" Yaren said happily.
Shen Shuang smiled on both sides.
When Yaren arrived, he said: "Haha, okay! Then go to the Yamen to register and go through the formalities-"
The tooth man's expression froze.
"Sure! You pay the deposit, and I'll go through the formalities later. You can come and pick me up tomorrow morning at the latest." Well, this guy is really good at calculating.
Shen Shuangshuang was finally satisfied.
"How much is the deposit?" asked.
"The total is forty taels. Just give me ten taels." Yaren said with a smile.
Shen Shuangshuang nodded.
"Write a note." As he said this, he took out a silver ingot from his pocket.
"Okay! Please come this way!" Ya Ren quickly asked Shen Shuangshuang to leave.
Shen Shuangshuang paid the money in the front yard and left after getting the voucher.
After returning home, Shen Shuangshuang hesitated and told Mrs. Shen that she had bought three people.
After hearing this, Mrs. Shen was extremely anxious.
But he still patiently listened to Shen Shuangshuang's explanation.
"Both Uncle Wu and Wu Xia can write and do calculations. We will definitely need them when we open a branch in the future."
"Besides, your leg is not fully healed yet, so you'd better not do any work at home in the future."
"Teach Ling'er how to read when you are free. Or I can buy you some medicinal materials and you can make pills at home."
"Didn't you say before that you wanted to make some patent medicines and sell them to Mr. Yin? I take this seriously!"
"Master Yin, there are medicinal materials on the merchant ship. Please write me an order. Next time I go to deliver the goods, I will buy some directly from Xiao Liu."
"By the way, if you can get herbal seeds, I can plant them for you in space!" Shen Shuangshuang said.
During this time, my mother-in-law did not much less work than she did in order to catch up on the goods.
In the future, when there is someone at home, she is not going to let her interfere with the work of the workshop anymore.
My mother-in-law has excellent medical skills, so she should do what she is good at.
Li Ke is helping the third prince, and his future is uncertain. If conditions permit, they should actually stock up on some medicines.
Not only for personal use, but may also be used by more people.
Not just medicine, but maybe food.
In ancient times, people often relied on the sky for food. Although Shangyang Town is enjoying good weather now, there might be a famine at some point.
Didn't Uncle Wu's family sell themselves out because of famine?
Uncle Wu is still a scholar, and his family should be better off than ordinary farmers. He can't even protect himself, let alone the others.
In addition to stocking up on medicines, the food stocking plan may also have to be implemented slowly...
After hearing this, Mr. Shen was finally not in a hurry.
I even think my daughter-in-law is right.
She would indeed rather make medicine than fry Ermianhuang or make fermented bean curd.
Moreover, if you can make some good medicines, you will make more money.
So, Mrs. Shen relaxed.
"Since you have added someone to your family, you have to take good care of them."
"We have to provide them with things like sleeping covers and clothing."
Shen Shuangshuang nodded.
"We still have three vacant rooms in our house, so we can divide them into two rooms. The fire kang is ready-made. We can add some bedding and the like, and buy two sets of clothes for each of them. It should be fine."
"Then Mrs. Zheng can sew and thread. I'll buy some materials and let her sew on her own. I can finish it in a few days if I work hard."
"We also need to buy other daily necessities. When they come out of the tooth shop, they must not have much luggage with them," Mrs. Shen said.
"Sure! I'll take care of this, mom, just don't worry."
The next day.
After Shen Shuangshuang finished his work in the workshop and store, he drove the donkey cart to Yahang to pick up someone.
After paying the money, the dental store actually gave her the completed procedures.
Then, the three members of the Wu family were brought to Shen Shuangshuang.
Shen Shuangshuang didn't say much and asked the three of them to follow him.
Then let the three people get on the donkey cart.
Upon seeing this, Uncle Wu took the initiative to take over the task of driving the donkey cart and drove the donkey cart home according to Shen Shuangshuang's instructions.
Shen family, in the main room.
"Old slave/servant, I have seen the old lady! I have met the lady, young master!" Uncle Wu took the whole family and saluted the Shen family.
Shen glanced at the family of three with a cold expression.
"Get up." She said in a deep voice.
"Thank you, madam!" The three of them stood up.
Shen glanced at the three people again.
"Now that you're here, stay here with peace of mind."
"Our family doesn't have that many rules. You can just follow my wife's arrangements."
"There are rewards for doing things well. There are also penalties for doing things poorly."
"If you do your part well, our Shen family will naturally not treat you badly." Shen said with great momentum.
The powerful aura suppressed the Wu family of three.
Shen Shuangshuang watched from the side and sighed that her mother-in-law was born into a wealthy family, so she was indeed amazing.
Mrs. Shen looked at Shen Shuangshuang and gave her an expression that said, "Look, your mother is doing well."
Then keep talking.
"I'm tired, Ling'er, take grandma back to the room."
"Leave it to your mother to arrange this." Shen said, waving to Li Ling.
The little baby didn't want to think about why his mother was so cruel to these people, and hurried forward to help him.
The grandfather and grandson left soon.
As soon as Mr. Shen left, Shen Shuangshuang noticed that all three members of the Wu family had expressions of relief.
"You don't have to be nervous."
"My mother has a very good temper, as you will know after getting along with her for a long time." Shen Shuangshuang said with a smile.
The three members of the Wu family lowered their heads, and no one dared to answer. (End of chapter)
