Farming in space: the struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 192 Chapter 192

When Mu Yu received the news about Yuan Qi from Yuandang's boy, he was slightly stunned, and then he only said calmly, "Got it."

"Mu girl, are you unhappy? Yuan Qi offended you..."

"I'm naturally happy that such a heinous person has been punished and can no longer harm others.

I'm also not happy. After doing so many things and killing so many people, he was able to live well in the end, but he was locked up.

As for him offending me, it's a small thing, isn't it? "

The boy was taken aback for a moment, as if he hadn't expected such a statement, and suddenly became ashamed, and left in despair.

Mu Yu was in a daze for a moment, and said to the woman in charge beside him, "Go and ask the housekeeper when the group of guards mentioned yesterday will arrive."

The woman in charge took the order and left, and returned with the housekeeper after a while.

"If you go back to the master's house, the guards have already been delivered, and now they are waiting in the main courtyard. Does the master's house want to give a lecture?"

"The lecture will be omitted, I just want to understand."

After a while, she sat drinking tea under the octagonal gazebo in the main courtyard, and twenty tall and strong guards stood neatly in the open space of the main courtyard for her to look at.

She was a little surprised, this was much better than she thought, and better than the few guards she saw every day, especially when such a group stood together, the visual impact was stronger.

However, it is not enough to just look good, and there is no use for showy.

"Do they know kung fu?"

"Know it a little bit, there is a foundation of kung fu."

The housekeeper talked to her modestly, and then shouted at the guards, asking them to show off their martial arts.

The guards immediately shouted, and each put on a posture, horse step, kick, horizontal punch, etc., which seemed to be very powerful.

Mu Yu thought for a while, and then asked, "How is their martial arts compared to the guards brought by Brother Yuan?"

"...That's naturally because the guards brought by Boss Yuan's business trip are very powerful."

"Is it very powerful?"

"Quite a lot."

"Then can you buy such a powerful guard?"

A flash of hesitation flashed in the butler's eyes, and he finally said, "I can buy some, and I can recruit some, but the number may not be many, and the price will be high..."

"That's not a big deal."

Mu Yu signaled the housekeeper to push back the guards and let him sit down at the table, the servant girl poured tea for him tactfully, and then also retreated.

"I don't know how many more guards the girl wants to recruit?"

Mu Yu pondered for a while, "It's not urgent, let's talk about the recruitment of guards in Jinzhou first."

"I'm familiar with this. Jinzhou is well-developed and meticulous in everything, and the guard industry is the same.

Guards are generally divided into four classes according to their level, from good to bad, first class, second class, third class and fourth class.

This fourth class is also the last class, they have all kinds of crooked melons and cracked dates, not to mention low abilities, and they are all weird in appearance.

Of course, this is from the eyes of wealthy people like us. For those small country gentry and small businessmen, this is an affordable choice. After careful selection, you can still select a few suitable candidates, but most of them I can't choose to do nothing.

As for the price, in our case, buying one is about three taels of silver, and hiring one is about three hundred or five hundred dollars a month.

These three classes are the most numerous and common ones. They are all normal men.

The few guards in our yard are third-class guards. The general housekeepers are enough, and there will be no problem of losing face.

The price is about six taels of silver to buy one, and five to six hundred wen to hire one a month.

This second class is only used by people who are more particular. Needless to say, they look tall and strong, they have great strength, and they also have fists and kicks.

Such people are generally booked out early by those real powerful people, and they rarely stay on the market for others to choose.

The twenty sent this time are second-class guards, and Master Yuan bought these twenty through his relationship.

The market price is ten taels of silver to buy one, and one tael of silver a month to hire one as a base. It's not easy to buy, and it's hard to find hire. "

At this point, Mu Yu interrupted, "Is the third class already going to buy through the relationship? Can't you add money?"

It doesn't matter that she is in Jinzhou, and using Yuandang's relationship is against her original intention.

"The third class is rare, and you can find it with more money, but it takes time. It may only be one or two in a few days. It will take a long time to get these twenty, so..."

"I see, you go on."

"Furthermore, it's the fourth class, which is what you want from the master. The martial arts are quite strong, and it's not a problem to fight five or even ten. The guards of the Yuan family's caravan are all of this class.

The third class is so rare, let alone the fourth class, it can be said that it is hard to come by.

This kind of person is closely watched by the wealthy businessmen and dignitaries in Jinzhou. When they have something to do, they all want to pry it in private. Once one of them leaves the upper house, more people will flock to him immediately, holding money to ask him to do something. .

The price is not accurate, very few people are willing to sign the death contract, today I only heard of two, last year there were no more than ten, the prices were all above a hundred taels of silver, and one even signed a high price of a thousand taels of silver .

Most of them are hired, and the price of hiring is also based on ten taels of silver a month.

The price is more than ten times higher than that of the third class, so many people would rather buy ten third class ones for use.

Of course, it may also be the sour words they said because they couldn't grab the fourth class. "

This sounds much more complicated than she thought. Originally, she thought that as long as she was willing to pay, she could solve this problem quickly, just like buying other things.

It looks very tricky now.

"You just said, how many can you find?"

The butler smiled and said, "I've been the butler of Yuan Yuan for 20 years, so I still have some ability."

Then he said sternly, "I'm sure there are three that I can call, and there are two that I'm not sure about."

"tell me the story."

"One is an old friend of mine. He worked under Boss Yuan for a few years. Later, he quit to take care of his family and made a lot of money. It is enough for a lifetime to live the lives of ordinary people. It's just that in the past few years he My family is sick, my son is studying, and the money is almost spent, so I want to start working again.

But he is 40 years old, and he has not done anything for many years. His reputation has long since faded, and it is not easy to find him. He can only be paid a third-class salary. in charge.

He was also very unwilling, and always asked me to drink and complain...

One is my neighbor’s child, only, I was lied to once before, and now I only want to be introduced by acquaintances. His parents came to me and wanted to introduce him to Master Yuan, but they have never met. Now I am the master. If the person is gone, it is natural to push it to the master.

Another one is..."

After Mu Yu listened to the housekeeper's words, these people are all fine.

"I want all these people, go talk to them, it's best to sign a long contract."

The housekeeper was overjoyed, "Yes."

The next day, Mu Yu saw these five people in his yard.
