Early the next morning, Chunfeng went to his store to check the situation.
I found that Xuan Yi’s work efficiency is really high!
Her specific table had been prepared and placed in the VIP room on the second floor.
The stone pot she was looking for to be custom-made has also been finished. It is polished carefully and smoothly, and has beautiful carvings. It looks very classy at first glance.
The decoration of the store was also done exactly as she planned. Bamboo was used as the decoration material, and it was full of elegance and tranquility.
Not bad, not bad, Chunfeng feels very satisfied!
The next step is to recruit people, buy materials, and publicity work.
Buying materials and promoting things are easy, as long as you have money.
The more complicated thing is recruiting people, because Chunfeng will have to use his own unique secret recipe, so he must hire people he can trust.
And only after recruiting all the people can we proceed with the follow-up work.
Just when Chunfeng was thinking about where to find so many people and who should be trustworthy, Xuan Yi gave Chunfeng a good suggestion.
"Girl, why don't we go to Yahang and have a look? There are a lot of people there, some of whom were originally officials who were convicted and then turned into slaves. It's not expensive to buy a few people, and there are deeds of sale. , much more reliable than recruiting people."
Xuanyi suggested to Chunfeng who was standing at the window of a private room on the second floor.
"Well, let's go to Yaxing later and have a look!" Chunfeng nodded in agreement. This is actually a good idea.
It seems that the current life-selling contracts are divided into death contracts and living contracts. If you buy a few dead contracts, it will be equivalent to holding the lifeline of the other party. Are you afraid that they will be dishonest
Chunfeng's plan is to buy a few people in the kitchen, which is the most important part.
As for the front office, I'd better find a few outsiders. After all, my budget is limited and I can't afford to hire so many people at once.
Xuan Yi drove a carriage with the spring breeze to Yangliu Street, where Yaxing is located.
When Chunfeng walked to the door of Yahang, what he saw was a very ordinary courtyard, so ordinary that it was not very eye-catching.
"Is this Yaxing?" Chunfeng turned around and said to Xuan Yi in disbelief.
"Girl, this is the dental shop. Let's go in and take a look." Xuan Yi nodded respectfully to Chunfeng, then stretched out his hand to make an invitation gesture to Chunfeng to guide him.
Chunfeng followed him into the yard. Seeing that the yard was relatively clean, Chunfeng felt that this was a little different from the teeth he had imagined.
Originally, Chunfeng thought that Yaxing would be a mess and noisy place. After all, it was for slaves who had been convicted of crimes.
Unexpectedly, the cleaning was quite clean, and there was no noise in the whole yard, which seemed very quiet.
As soon as the spring breeze entered the yard, someone came up to greet me and said, "Hey, here comes the distinguished guest. Miss, do you want to buy a maid or a servant? I can recommend a few reliable ones for you."
When the servants in Yaxing saw Chunfeng's dress, and then looked at Xuanyi's heroic demeanor, such an outstanding person was given to Chunfeng as his subordinate, they immediately regarded Chunfeng as a noble and served him respectfully.
"I want a few people who can work, but also have smart minds and flexible brains. I wonder if you have suitable ones here?" Chunfeng was indifferent to Yazai's flattery and said his purpose of coming indifferently.
"Yes, yes, I wonder if you want a man or a woman?" He said with a cheerful smile, not caring about Chunfeng's indifference at all.
"I want them all, please bring a few over to see first!" Chunfeng still looked indifferent.
"Hey... Sir, please stay here for a while. I'll go right away!"
When Ya Cha heard this, he thought that Chun Feng wanted a lot of people, and he felt very happy, so he immediately went to the backyard to pick people.
Not long after, Na Yacha led a group of people to the front hall and stood in front of the spring breeze.
"My lord, please see if there is anything here that you are satisfied with. If you don't think so, there is one in the backyard." Yaza said to Chunfeng with a flattering look on his face.
"Well, everyone, raise your heads!" Chunfeng just nodded lightly and asked the people standing below to raise their heads.
Chunfeng looked at the people present. There were five men and five women standing below.
All of them are in pretty good shape and look like they can work.
"Tell me how you all got here!" Spring breeze swept through the crowd and spoke again.
"My lord, the slave accidentally injured someone the year before last. Since he didn't have the money to compensate him, he was sent here after a year in prison." One of the men, who looked relatively decent, spoke first. .
"This slave was sent here because her previous master did something wrong and was convicted, along with everyone in the house." Another woman said.
"The villain sold himself here because his family was poor and he had no choice."
"This slave also voluntarily sold himself to get here."
"Slave..."
"Slave..."
Chunfeng listened to several people's answers one by one and found that almost all of them came here because their master's family was implicated in a crime, or they made mistakes themselves, or because their parents were too poor and sold them off.
I have to say that many people here are very pitiful. The oppression of life forces them to endure such a miserable life.
In the end, Chunfeng picked three men and three men from them, a total of six people.
Chunfeng picked people who spoke fluently and seemed to be in better shape.
These six people spent a total of nearly sixty taels of silver on Chunfeng, buying their death deeds.
However, Chunfeng felt that buying six people for sixty taels of silver was a good deal. People these days are really worthless. In modern times, a life would cost 1.8 million.
Moreover, slaves who were bought back in this era did not need to be paid, they only needed to be given food and shelter.
Chunfeng really felt that she had made a profit, but she was not the Zhou Bapi who only knew how to exploit people.
She will also give them their wages. If possible, Chunfeng also hopes that they can live a good life. After all, they have not made any big mistakes, most of them are forced by life or have been implicated.
For this reason, Dongfeng also specially formulated an attendance system. If they perform well, they will be rewarded. They can receive a salary increase and be promoted. Dongfeng is even prepared to free them from slavery.
It was Chunfeng's approach that gained a lot of loyalty in the future.
"You just live here first, and you will work here from now on. From tomorrow on, I will come and teach you what you should do." Chunfeng took the people who bought them to a small yard behind the store and ordered.
One advantage of storefronts in this era is that there is a yard behind each store.
It can be used to store goods, and it can also be used to house people. Chunfeng just solved the problem of arranging a place for these people to live.
"Thank you, Master!" Several people standing in the yard saluted respectfully after hearing Chunfeng's words.
