“Oh come on, what are you talking about? Of course I know thirty taels of silver is nothing to you. I just want to express my gratitude. Or, are you looking down on me?”
He just called him brother this and brother that. Someone who had no idea of what was happening would think they were very close friends.
“I didn’t mean that. Guarantor Liu, don’t stand on ceremony. We’d have a lot of chances to cooperate. You can’t always send me for free, right? To say it bluntly, the relationship between teeth and tongue is good enough, right? But still they’d hurt each other sometimes. Any relationship, as long as you want to maintain it in the long run, it couldn’t get money involved. Since you have the heart to make friends with you, I have no reason to say no. So for our future cooperation, we should make it clear about money.”
There is no free lunch in the world. He didn’t want to owe him big for only thirty taels of silver. What’s the most difficult to repay? Other’s favor.
“After you said that, it feels like I’m look down on you if I don’t charge you. All right, I can only agree. Brother Ling, come to me if you need anything. As long as it’s within my capabilities, I will definitely lend a hand.”
Guarantor Liu thought he had the gift of gab, but today he met someone glibber than him. In case the other side might get annoyed, he could only make concession. Like Ling Jingxuan said, as long as he was in the scope of Qingyang town, they’d definitely have the chance to cooperate, so no hurry.
“Haha…thank you in advance then.”
Ling Jingxuan smiled faintly, and did not put what he said in his heart. Profiteers! No businessman isn’t tricky for interest. If it wasn’t profitable out of it, how would he ever be extra warm to him? To put it bluntly, his warmness was built on the additional benefit, which had nothing to do with him.
“Your name is Song Gengniu, right?”
Not wanting to waste any more time on those boring things, Ling Jingxuan decisively turned his eyes to Song Gengniu, who nodded hurriedly, “Yes, My name is Song Gengniu. I’m thirty-four years old. And this is my wife Yang Cuihua, my biggest son Song Shuisheng, my daughter Song Shuiling, and my little son Song Xiaohu.”
After Guarantor Liu’s interruption, the family who were all kneeling there calmed down, though their eyes were no longer that watery, they still looked not so good.
“Well, before I buy you, there are a few things I want to make clear. If you can accept it, you can come back with me later. On the contrary, you just take it as nothing ever happened today.”
Nodding slightly, Ling Jingxuan swept over all of them with his seemingly lazy but sharp and serious eyes, until making sure that they were all not that kind of bad and cunning people, he withdrew his eyes.
“Please say it, benefactor.”
A family of five gave each other a look, then nodded. Don’t say Ling Jingxuan was their benefactor, even if he was just an ordinary buyer, it was already their blessing that someone would buy all of them. What else would they expect?
“First, you only watched the manor for a big family, so I guess days there were kind of comfortable. But I am only an ordinary farmer, and I live in a broken cottage. If you go back with me, days couldn’t compare with before. Second, I don’t need you to do a lot of work, but only need you to be loyal. Only one time of betrayal, I will make you pay the price. So, you need to consider it carefully. Once the contract is in my hand, you can’t regret it anymore.”
Some things needed to be clarified ahead. Although after buying them, he had the right to decide their lives, he still held some expectations after buying them. Even if some day he’d really meet some kind of betrayal thing, he’d also feel disgusted, right?
Hearing that, the five of them breathed a sigh of relief. Song Gengniu once again bowed his head to him before looking at him and said frankly, “I’m not afraid to tell you that we had a good life in a large and rich family, but after experiencing the plague and the thing we were sold, what else can we expect? As long as the family is safe together, that’s better than anything.”
Sad? Not only Song Gengniu, even those adults on spot were with undisguised pains in the eyes. Even the little son Song Xiaohu reddened his eyes. They were clearer than anyone that if it hadn’t been Ling Jingxuan today, maybe tomorrow they’d be sold one by one separately. At that time, maybe they’d never get united as a complete family again.
“All right, get up, all of you, remember, I am just an ordinary farmer, and I don’t have so many rules, so don’t kneel before me. Loyalty is in your heart, and expressed through your doing, but not that kind of formalities.”
After confirming their determination, Ling Jingxuan finally decided to buy them.
“Yes, thank you, my lord.”
Since he became their master, then it was inappropriate to call him benefactor anymore. It was just the words my lord made Ling Jingxuan in a mess. He is only twenty years old, OK? Even if they had the heart to call him that, he felt embarrassed to accept it.
“Don’t call me that, I still have my parents, don’t call me lord.”
Ling Jingxuan corrected them. Seeing that they were trying to call him some other appellation, he hurried added, “Don’t call me young master too.”
“Well…”
No lord or young master? Then what should they call him?
Song Gengniu and his family were kind of all at sea. But Ling Jingxuan only knitted his eyebrow tightly there. As the atmosphere was nearly freezing, Yan Shengrui who hadn’t spoken a word all the time opened his mouth.”
“Call him Master Xuan, and from now on he is your only master. Whoever betrays him, I’ll end his life.”
Speaking of which, that kind of dominant feeling he had been hiding all the time burst out again. Except Ling Jingxuan, no one there wasn’t having cold sweat all over. What a tough and domineering man!
