The whole village is fleeing famine, fortunately I have a concubine system

Ma Qing had just been bought into the Chen Mansion. His parents were tenants of the wealthy family.

Because of the bad year, the harvest has been severely reduced.

In addition, the rent of the land owned by the wealthy family was high, and he really could not afford to pay the rent.

What's more, the two girls in the family were sold by their parents two years ago.

The only male left is Ma Qing.

Originally, the Ma family did not want to sell Ma Qing. They wanted to keep this boy to take care of them in their old age.

And to continue the Ma family's lineage.

But they really couldn't afford the rent, and the rent collector had come to their house several times.

They said that if the rent could not be paid, the land would be taken back.

That won’t do. The Ma family has been tenants of this rich man for generations.

They have been renting their land for several lifetimes, but who knew that the harvest would always be poor.

The rent was getting higher every year, and it was so high that they had to sell their children and could hardly make ends meet.

They don't understand, they have been farming honestly for half their lives.

He never dared to be lazy and always took care of the crops in the fields with all his heart.

Even my own parents and children have never been taken care of so attentively.

But the result is that he can't even support himself.

They even have to sell their children to make a living, and there is nothing they can do even if they are reluctant.

In the end, they sold Ma Qing, who was only thirteen years old.

Because Ma Qing had never had enough to eat since he was a child, he was naturally not as tall as other children of the same age.

He also inherited his mother Ma's fair skin and delicate facial features.

She looks weak and pretty.

Looking at Ma Qing's appearance, the human trafficker naturally did not lock him and the other people who were sold in together in a dirty cage.

People were waiting to bargain with the sellers, selecting items like they were selecting livestock.

Instead, they were washed, put on clean and decent clothes, and served with delicious food and drinks.

Sure enough, Ma Qing was bought by someone in just three days.

The buyer was someone from the Chen family, and it was Li Shugen who personally came to the dental clinic to select it.

As soon as Li Shugen entered the dental clinic, a dentist came up to him warmly.

Seeing Li Shugen's eagerness, he said, "Manager Li, what wind brought you here today?

Today is such a happy day. No wonder the sparrows have been chirping at me all morning.

Look, you came right after I stopped."

Li Shugen couldn't stop smiling as he listened to the flattery from the broker.

He said to the broker, "You are still a sweet talker. Call everyone in as usual and I will see if there is anyone suitable."

Li Shugen sat in the pavilion, eating fruits and snacks prepared by the dentist.

Talking familiarly with the broker and listening to their familiar conversations, I knew that Li Shugen was a frequent visitor here.

After the broker responded, he walked in with a group of people.

Li Shugen looked up and saw a row of teenage boys.

Wearing clean and decent clothes, she was waiting to be selected by Li Shugen.

Li Shugen obviously liked this posture of picking people, which made him feel that he was no longer a slave.

But he is a superior person who can control the fate of others.

This is also the reason why Li Shugen always asks Chen Jingbing to let him choose the people.

Because he was too addicted to the feeling of controlling other people's fate.

Among a row of people, Li Shugen took a liking to Ma Qing at first sight.

It’s just because Ma Qing is so conspicuous among this group of people.

Those who can be chosen by the pawnshop are basically poor people who can't make ends meet.

In addition to poor families, there is actually another type.

That is because they committed some serious crime and their entire family became criminal slaves after their property was confiscated.

However, in the small city of Wudu, there are basically no such people.

Therefore, all those standing here are poor people who can hardly make ends meet.

These people basically grew up in the countryside and have endless farm work to do every day.

It is exposed to the sun and blown by strong winds all day long.

The skin color is generally wheat-colored, with occasional hints of bronze.

Therefore, Ma Qing's fair face stood out like a light bulb.

Moreover, his facial features are very delicate, and he is still young and not tall.

Standing in the crowd, there is a kind of androgynous beauty.

When Li Shugen saw this, he hissed.

I didn't expect that I could find such good stuff today.

He stood up from the stool, pointed at Ma Qing and said, "It's him."

When the broker saw Li Shugen's excitement, he knew that he was very satisfied.

After taking the people he brought with him away, he said to Li Shugen:

"Manager Li has a really good eye, we just bought this.

He is very sensible and has a gentle personality.

Then you guys will be able to control me, hehe."

Li Shugen didn't have the heart to argue with the broker now, he just wanted to buy the person home as soon as possible.

When Chen Jingbing saw Ma Qing, he told him according to his hobbies.

I will definitely like it very much as long as Chen Jingbing is happy.

According to Chen Jingbing's habit of giving away money, he will definitely reward Li Shugen with many good things.

Li Shugen was so impatient that he wanted to bring Ma Qing back home.

He stretched out his hand impatiently to stop the broker from talking, and said to him:

"Okay, I know what you mean.

Isn't it just to make more money?

Tell me, what's the price?"

The dentist was not annoyed by being interrupted and continued to smile.

"Butler Li is really amazing, nothing can be hidden from your eyes.

Then I will just say this number. "

As he said this, he stretched out his thumb and index finger and showed them in front of Li Shugen.

Li Shugen, the broker, gestured the amount of silver without blinking.

He simply paid the money and took Ma Qing away.

After taking Ma Qing into the carriage, he saw that Ma Qing looked a little uncomfortable.

Take the initiative to talk to Ma Qing.

"Don't be nervous, what's your name?"

Ma Qing was very shy and said softly, "My name is Ma Qing."

Li Shugen saw Ma Qing start to speak, and he sounded timid.

He comforted her and said, "Don't be afraid, our house is the county magistrate's.

The family has a strict tradition, and I bought you to clean the yard for the young master.

As long as you work hard, you will not be short of monthly salary.

It's just that our young master has a bad temper, but as long as you coax him, it will be fine."

Seeing Li Shugen's friendly demeanor, Ma Qing gradually became less reserved.

I heard Li Shugen talking to me about the situation in the Chen Mansion, and it was the county magistrate's house.

I feel that as long as I work hard, I will be able to live a good life.

At least I can have enough food and warm clothes, and no longer have to suffer from the cold and hunger.

And my boss is such a good person.

When she saw that he was nervous, she would actually go out of her way to comfort him.

This is completely different from the rich people Ma Qing has seen since he was a child.

It’s just like the housekeeper who used to go to his house to collect rent, always looking arrogant.
