Crossing the Unknown Country

Chapter 262 Su He and the others have bought people

Su He saw that Uncle Feng was better than them, so they all walked up to him and looked at him one by one, turning around in the crowd, which lowered their status. Fortunately, they were just hiring some honest people to do the work, so there would be no problem with such people.

You see Uncle Feng sitting here so high up, and when people come over one by one, he can't help but become nervous. Many things can't be hidden, and their personalities are well shown.

Uncle Feng looked at these people, one by one, and stopped in front of him. He first looked at their eyes, then their hands. He picked out those with wandering eyes and those with long and dirty fingernails. These people were either dishonest or unhygienic, and did not meet his requirements.

Su He also looked down on the people that Uncle Feng picked. She silently praised Uncle Feng in her heart. He was indeed a man from the General's Mansion. Just by looking at the way he picked people, it was clear that he was experienced and must have bought many people.

She knew that these people were not simple since Uncle Feng and his companions came to her house for the first time. They were different from Master Zhang Wanqiang. They were not just pure military commanders, but were mainly skilled in martial arts.

Uncle Feng was obviously a former guard. He was very methodical in what he said and did. He was a very capable person. Among them, Uncle Feng and his colleagues were very similar to Wang Hu in their work style, but they all seemed to follow Wang Hu's arrangements.

After Feng Wanqiang finished the first round of screening, he stepped back. Then it was Su He and her father's turn to select people. Su He asked the remaining people to come forward and briefly introduce themselves.

They started introducing themselves one by one, and after they finished speaking, Su He's father would ask them what they would do and where their families were. Su He would occasionally ask them some questions, such as where would you go if you were asked to buy meat? What would you do if a customer got angry for no reason? And a series of other questions related to purchasing and service.

These can show a person's character and ability to handle things. Su He knew that they would leave Fenggu City sooner or later, and they would send someone they trusted to manage here. So these service personnel must be used well, and it would be better if they can be independent.

Su He's father looked for some people who knew about tea and chefs who could cook. They still had to make some side dishes. They didn't make the big dishes in restaurants, but they still had to make some simple side dishes and casual side dishes.

They prepared some private rooms, not only for tea, but also for alcohol, after all, they were talking about business, so tea alone was not enough. However, the dishes they served were not those soupy ones, but mainly simple dishes such as braised beef, chicken sauce tofu, spiced peanuts, and preserved eggs.

In the end, they bought 20 people, and took 10 of them home first, because the yard was too big, and it was very difficult to clean it, so they needed more manpower. Su He's brothers also needed to be accompanied by servants, so they bought four children around ten years old, so that they would have to have someone to accompany them when they went to the capital to take the exam.

Originally Su He wanted to find one among the children of the big bull in the town, but later he felt that it was not appropriate. They were all free people, so how could he let them sell themselves to his family? If he didn't sell them to his family, the book boy in his family would have to study with his brothers, study, sleep and accompany them, and he must be a loyal person.

Su He finally had to give up and thought about buying someone later. This time was a good opportunity. His family was not short of money and had a big enough house. Most importantly, because Uncle Feng brought her here, the price was cheaper than usual, so he bought her right away.

These little bookboys were all selected by Su He for his brothers. They all speak clearly and in a logical manner, and they are also good-looking, and they are very qualified for the role of bookboys. They will all be his little assistants in the future. Su He selected them very carefully, and I believe that his brothers will be satisfied when they see them.

Su He named them Su Zhili, Su Zhile, Su Zhishu and Su Zhiyu, which were four of the six arts of a gentleman. The four little book boys were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling. Their names were so nice. Their original names were Goudan, Sanpang, Dashu and Chengcai, which were not as loud as the names they have now.
