Chapter 316

Hearing Lin Xiaoyue say this, Master Zhou looked a little disappointed.

What he originally thought was that he hoped that Lin Xiaoyue would agree to make some for him on a regular basis, and he would spend money to buy it or send someone to pick it up.

did not expect……

However, Lin Dong's family has agreed to braise meat for his daughter, and let his daughter share some of it with him at that time. He couldn't say anything more.

Anyway, his daughter often goes back to her mother's house. It's a big deal. He tells her to bring more braised pork when she goes back to her mother's house. So, why don't you worry about not having braised meat in the future?

Seeing Master Zhou's expression, Master Wednesday and Shopkeeper Liang looked at each other again, and became more and more curious about the braised pork.

Lin Xiaoyue quickly changed the subject and chatted with Mr. Zhou about the accountant.

"I heard that Lin Dong's family is in a hurry. Those three people were transferred from Nan'an County by me, and said they were all accountants."

"I just came here today, and I brought people here."

"No, let people come in now. Dong Lin, you go to the school in person to see if these three can meet the requirements of Dong Lin."

As Master Wednesday said, he looked at Shopkeeper Liang and Master Zhou again.

"It just so happens that Shopkeeper Liang and Uncle Tang are also here, so you can also help with the details."

"Third Master is right!" Lin Xiaoyue replied with a smile.

Then he nodded to Shopkeeper Liang and Master Zhou.

"Excuse me two."

Only then did Zhao Fu, who came back from the door, go and bring people.

After a while, Zhao Fu led people in.

After meeting Li, Lin Xiaoyue asked the three of them to introduce herself in turn.

Later, Lin Xiaoyue learned about the situation of these three people.

Among the three, there was a father and son, and the two were from Yunzhou.

It is said that there was a flood over there before, and many people left their homes and became refugees.

After that, the two had no choice but to sell themselves with their families and escaped from Yunzhou with Zhou's business, saving their lives.

Afterwards, it was sent to Nan'an County by Zhou's firm.

Then, it was learned by Lord Wednesday that he was coming to Qingshi Town.

After hearing the descriptions of the two, Lin Xiaoyue was shocked.

She had heard of the flood in Yunzhou.

But because it was too far away from them, and the ancient information was blocked, the news spread slowly, so she didn't hear much.

She had known before that natural disasters in ancient times would cause great damage to society and people's livelihood, and this time she really came into contact with them.

These two, who were considered decent people before, have now ended up as slaves to the whole family.

This is still lucky, they at least escaped Yunzhou safely, and the lives of the whole family were saved.

As for the people of Yunzhou, I don’t know how many people died in the flood and on the way to flee the desert.

"In Yunzhou, what's the situation now?" Lin Xiaoyue couldn't help but ask.

On Wednesday, Ye and others all looked a little bad.

"The situation is very bad. Although the imperial court sent officials to relieve the disaster, it failed to stabilize the local people's livelihood. The people of Yunzhou were displaced and fled to other prefectures in several directions." Lord Wednesday said.

"More than that." Shopkeeper Liang answered.

"After the flood receded, the epidemic broke out not long after. Not only the people who stayed in Yunzhou, but also the victims who escaped from Yunzhou, some people became ill."

"I just got the news that there are epidemics in the prefectures near Yunzhou, including those farther away. Now, the prefectures are not accepting the victims of Yunzhou."

Lin Xiaoyue's expression changed.

After a catastrophe, there will be a catastrophe. It's a law.

In ancient times, the sanitary protection conditions were poor. If the flood disaster was not handled properly and the victims spread across the country, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Don't worry, ma'am, the slaves—the slaves and others were the first to escape from Yunzhou, and they didn't catch the epidemic!" Suddenly, the older accountant saluted Lin Xiaoyue.

At that time, when he found that the situation in Yunzhou was wrong, he quickly made up his mind and escaped from Yunzhou through Zhou's business.

It was also thanks to him that he had some friendship with an accountant of Zhou's firm, and that person made it easy for them. Let them sell themselves as slaves and become the people of Zhou's firm.

After that, they were able to transfer out of Yunzhou together with the last wave of Zhou's firm.

At that time, he originally thought that after leaving Yunzhou, he would find a way to redeem himself.

As a result, the money on the body was quickly taken away by the people who escorted them.

Next, if they didn't know each other, they would not even be able to reach Nan'an County.

Even so, they were lucky.

It has been more than two months since he came out of Yunzhou. On the way, he has seen and heard the tragic situation of many people in Yunzhou.

He was also escorted by people from Zhou's firm to several places.

If he and his son were both accountants and had some ability, Zhou's firm wanted to sell them at a high price, and the family would have been sold separately.

This time they were sent to Nan'an County, and Zhou's firm wanted to deal with them.

If no one buys them all again, no matter how much he pleads this time, I'm afraid it will be useless.

Therefore, he and his son must satisfy the young lady in front of him and let the young lady buy them.

Only in this way can their family stay in Qingshi Town without being separated.

"This, Lin Dong's family can rest assured. I have arranged for a doctor to check them and their families, and they have not contracted the epidemic." Master Wednesday said.

Moreover, the business side also pays attention.

After all, slaves are also the property of the Zhou family. If you bring someone sick, if you infect more slaves, it will be a loss for the business, right?

Lin Xiaoyue nodded.

"Then try it. If you want to be truly talented, just stay." He said.

The father and son looked overjoyed, and hurriedly saluted Lin Xiaoyue to thank him.

Lin Xiaoyue then asked Zhao Fu to get the pen and abacus.

Then he asked the shopkeeper Liang and Mr. Zhou to help him with the questions.

The two smiled.

Soon, the pen and paper came.

Shopkeeper Liang and Master Zhou gave questions to several people successively.

After answering the questions, the two also tested the abacus ability of the three people on the spot.

In terms of abacus speed, the father and son performed the best.

After that, Lin Xiaoyue asked Shopkeeper Liang and Master Zhou to help read the answer sheets made by the three of them.

As expected, the father and son answered better.

In the end, the accountant was admitted to the school together with the father and son. From seeing the speed at which the father and son planned to play, he knew that he must have lost.

Seeing that Lin Xiaoyue was about to announce the result, her heart was raised.

"It's all good. Ge Long is first, Ge Lu is second, and Luo Song is third." Lin Xiaoyue said.

The Ge family's father and son breathed a sigh of relief instantly.

Rosen turned pale.

He knew that the Ge family's father and son were in a difficult situation, but why wasn't he? He also doesn't want to be sold separately from his family!

Thinking that the Liu family was not only short of an accountant, Luo Song quickly suppressed the fear in his heart and waited for the final result.

Lin Xiaoyue deliberately glanced at the expressions of the three, and was quite satisfied with the performance of the three.

The Ge family's father and son did not feel slack because of their good grades.

And Luo Song didn't lose his temper in front of her because he didn't do well in the test.

"Zhuang Zishang is now hiring people, so just stay." Lin Xiaoyue finally said.

The three were stunned.

Then he looked ecstatic, and then quickly thanked Lin Xiaoyue.

"Miss Xie!" Then, they all knelt down and kowtowed to Lin Xiaoyue.

They are all left, they don't have to be separated from their families!

Lin Xiaoyue asked a few people to get up.

"The accountant's responsibilities are very important, and arranging you to go to Zhuangzi to manage the accounts is also to let you supervise the Zhuangzi's accounts on my behalf."

"Loyalty is my first requirement for you. As an accountant, as long as you are qualified. But being my accountant, ability is only one aspect. What I value more is loyalty."

The three bodies trembled.

"The servants of Liu Mansion will never resell it. If something is wrong, there will be corresponding punishment." Lin Xiaoyue said solemnly.

The danger in the tone made the three of them dare not breathe.

Once they became slaves, their lives were in the hands of their masters. How dare you betray?

"Yes!" The three quickly responded.

Lin Xiaoyue nodded.

Then the three were assigned the Zhuangzi they were going to.

Later, Zhao Fu was asked to take a few people down.

Then, the food was served in the main room.

Lin Xiaoyue invites everyone to take a seat.
