Chapter 17: I don't want to be ashamed of being a noble!

"After a moment, this matter..."

Liang Qi didn't know what happened, but he thought that his girlfriend did something that made Lu Wu unhappy.

If it were a great nobleman, his girlfriend would be unhappy with the guests. He would definitely wave his hand and let the warrior come in and pull the girl away.

As for whether to pull it out to fight or kill it, it depends on the owner's mood.

Liang looked very rich? This can be seen from those female slaves and these female concubines.

The productivity is extremely low now, and any labor force is extremely precious.

Adult men and women are the main labor force. Children have to help with their work after they become sensible, and the elderly have no time to be idle.

If you are not rich, who would specially train women to serve others?

They need to be bought and invited professionals to teach them for a long time.

People who know how to teach professional service skills can't be invited just by asking for it, and it's a lot of money.

During this period, they were unable to create any output; even after they were finished, they were not allowed to do farm work, or they would make their hands rough, how could they serve others?

Furthermore, how beautiful can women who have been doing farm work for a long time be when exposed to the wind and sun?

Women who are specially used to serve others not only do not have to participate in agricultural work, but also have to think about how to dress up.

It takes a lot of money to dress up.

So, without enough financial resources as support (basis), which one will specifically support such a person if it is a problem?

Of course, Liang Qi could not let the warrior come and drag the girl down and kill them.

The main reason is that Liang is reluctant to kill him, otherwise it would be very costly to train another group.

Faced with Liang Qi's question, Lu Wu could not say that he was too stable.

Liang Qi saw Lu Wu sitting upright and not speaking. He waved his hand to ask the girl to go down, waiting for the slaves who followed him to bring him to sit in front of Lu Wu, and said, "Liang and Lu are close neighbors, and have not walked around much in the past..."

Liang Qi, who started awkward chat, chose to forget what happened just now and pretended that it had never happened.

At this time, Cheng Ying hummed lightly. When Liang Qi looked over, his eyes became very sharp and he looked at Liang Qi directly.

"Ha? Haha!" Liang Qi laughed awkwardly, but he didn't mention what happened just now, looked at Lu Wu again and asked, "Lu's family needs black stone?"

In order to cover up his embarrassment, Lu Wu nodded slightly expressionlessly.

"That's it..." Liang Qi pulled a long voice, turned his head and looked at Cheng Ying, and saw that he had turned to glaring at him, he looked at Lu Wu again, and said, "What he needs is that. It's a high estimate, but now it's a good deal."

Although I don’t know what the use of black stone is, it’s my thing. Some people want to sell it at a high price if they buy it.

Now I don’t know why I’ve been upset, so I have to sell it to you at a cheap price.

Liang Qi turned his head and looked at Cheng Ying again, and what he saw was that Cheng Ying had closed his eyes and sat down.

"Why worry about not having such a good minister?" Liang Qi did not hide his envy and said, "What are the worries about being a strong subordinate? "

If you have good ministers who can assist the family, you will not have to worry about prosperity.

The warriors under their command looked good at fighting and were not afraid of not being able to achieve military merits.

Lu Wu didn't know what the situation was now.

Liang Qi admitted that he fell, but he was a little emotional.

Otherwise, in front of Lu Wu, Liang Qi envied such a retainer and praised the warriors' arrangement, which was very inappropriate.

Lu Wu listened with a smile, but he just didn't say anything.

I guess he had vented his emotions after venting his emotions. Liang Qi changed the topic and talked about the Hu people in the north.

It’s easy to bully people inside and outside, and I feel embarrassed not to bully them.

Then, he asked Lu Wu if he was interested in teaming up to cause trouble.

Regarding this, Lu Wu lacked understanding of the Hu people in the north, so no one would mention it. He just wanted to make trouble.

Besides, he actually didn't understand what Liang Qi was like. He just met for the first time, so why did he think about forming a team?

"Yes." Cheng Ying didn't open his eyes and said, "The north of the border is deserted, and it can be conquered."

Liang Qi immediately looked at Lu Wu with a very expectant look.

Cheng Ying was not a retainer of Lu Wu, he was just a guest.

Lu Wu liked Cheng Ying's tacit cooperation just now, but it did not mean that Cheng Ying was like what she said. He said to Liang Qi: "Let me think about it."

Liang Qi no longer mentioned the topic of causing trouble, but turned to business matters.

He said that the Liang family's grain output was very sufficient and had a long-term and stable trade with several surrounding companies. He asked Lu Wu if he wanted to buy grain from the Liang family as well.

Lu Wu agreed directly to this point.

The last time, Liang only paid a little money and cloth, and most of it was food.

The old Lu family had agreed to Liang as a second-hand pottery dealer. The only thing that changed was to pay the bill in the future and collect food specifically.

Regardless of whether it is food or cloth, it is actually currency. When the year is not good, it is even better than coins.

When Lu Wu heard Liang Qi ask if he wanted a slave, he immediately became energetic.

Jin State is the overlord of the Central Plains and often takes a group of younger brothers (vassal states) out, mainly fighting with the Chu State, which claims to be barbaric. From time to time, he also needs to beat up several disobedient younger brothers around him.

There will be prisoners when there is war, and then there will be compensation from the defeated country. This is how the channels for slaves come from.

However, the slaves controlled by the state will basically be eaten up by the great nobles, and even if there are any missing, there will be some crooked melons and dates, and the little nobles can only buy them if they need them.

When Liang Qi saw that Lu Wu was very interested, he greeted his retainers and took Lu Wu out of the manor after a while.

They came to a valley with two sides of mountain walls.

There were fences at the entrances and exits here, and a large number of warriors were laid out.

Inside is a circle of fences, and each circle has some people with hands and feet tied up.

Seeing the clothes worn by them, most of them are so-called Hu people, and a small number of them are wearing Chinese clothes.

Lu Wu walked around, and on the surface he was selling Liang Qi's left ear into his right ear, and even showed a disgusting expression.

Even if he doesn't understand the knowledge of Spring and Autumn, he knows that buying a Hu person is an extremely loss-making business.

I lament that the kind that the Hu people don’t know how to farm, and it’s hard to teach them no matter how they teach them.

The flower growers buy slaves basically to increase the farming staff.

Why did Lu Wu act like a disgusting attitude? It means that he actually wants to buy it.

Of course, the old Lu family also needed to farm, but the scope of sealing was limited, so there was not much land that could open up new farmland.

However, he did not intend to take the route of a big landlord, otherwise he would have wasted his accumulation of knowledge that was two thousand and six hundred years ahead of this era.

Liang Qi just saw that Lu Wu was young and thought it would be easy to cheat. He was so hard to promote, but Lu Wu did not hide his disgust at all. How could he continue to perform?

And just as he took Lu Wu back to the manor and felt extremely disappointed, Lu Wu spoke.

"I've been here this time, so I've been wronged." Lu Wu asked the warrior to carry a box made of rattan, lifted it open, pointed to the copper armor inside, and said, "This gift is a friend."

Let this armor be used as a gift for us to build friendship.

Then, after you accept it, what should you use as a reward gift?

For a moment, Liang Qi's eyes could not leave the armor, and he greedily looked at every detail of the armor, but he struggled extremely hard inside.

In fact, this is also Lu Wu's mistaken estimation of the value of the armor.

Even if it is an armor that is not so useful in the middle, it is really not something that a little noble can afford before it is discovered that it is not useful.

Liang Qi likes to show off, has a thick-skinned face, and is also cunning.

But he is also an aristocrat in the Chinese cultural circle.
