Jing Wen successfully bought a courtyard house with an area of ​​more than 400 square meters, and was happy that Jing Wen was happy. A courtyard house was bought for less than a thousand guan. Jing Wen was still content. However, after living for a few days, Jing Wen found that he was a little lonely. Such a large courtyard house was the only one, a little lonely.

"Hey, I used to just want to live in a big house, but now I have a big house, and I feel lonely again." Jing Wen said helplessly.

Jing Wen went out and planned to visit this Chang'an City so that he could feel the prosperity of Chang'an. But what made Jing Wen a little helpless was that he had just reached the Zhenguan period and there were not many prosperous places. This Chang'an City was still in the rising period, so it was not very prosperous. Jing Wen had to take a walk casually.

"Customer, do you want to buy someone?" asked a despicable man.

"Buy people? Who are you buying?" Jing Wen also asked back.

The vulgar man said, "Just buy slaves! There are many wealthy families in Chang'an who come here to buy slaves. Do you also want to buy some slaves?"

Jing Wen suddenly said in surprise: "Didn't slavery end in the Qin Dynasty?"

Jing Wen remembered it very clearly that China's slavery had gradually collapsed during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Since slavery was no longer there, why was there a slave market here? This made Jing Wen very surprised, where did he travel through time?

The vulgar man said, "Sir, although my Chinese army has abolished slavery since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there are still good and low-key people in the Tang Dynasty. For example, many wealthy families have family servants. Some of these servants are hired, while others are really slaves and slaves. According to the laws of our Tang Dynasty, slaves will be executed if they beat good people to death. However, ordinary good people will be sentenced to at least imprisonment and can be used to compensate for the crime. Even if the master reports to the government, he can also kill slaves with the approval of the government. However, there are very few slaves in the country, not many."

Jing Wen did not expect that there was such a slave system in the Tang Dynasty, which surprised Jing Wen a little. However, Jing Wen once again remembered some of the differences between slavery and feudal systems recognized by history. Slavery is the mainstream in economic production, and this is slavery. In other words, the biggest feature of the slavery era is that slaves occupy the vast majority of the population, so it is called slavery. If slaves only occupy a small part and the economic benefits generated do not account for the majority of society, then it is not slavery.

"Damn, I thought that slavery would collapse and there would be no slaves. But I didn't expect that there were so-called slaves in this world, which was really a scam!" Jing Wen thought to himself.

"Young master, do you need slaves? We have slaves here! You can get some slaves without much money, and they are absolutely excellent. Besides, buying slaves is also beneficial!" said the despicable man.

"What are the benefits?" Jing Wen asked back.

"Young master, of course there is a benefit for me, that is, I can trust me! If I dare to betray you, you can kill him at any time. If I want to spend a penny, I can report it to the government and then behead me. So, in this case, will I dare not be loyal to my master? Therefore, buying a slave is much better than hiring slaves." The despicable man said.

Jing Wen's heart moved.

"Oh? Then if I want to open a restaurant, do you think I can buy some servants to go back?" Jing Wen asked.

"Yes! As long as you buy a restaurant, you can buy some slaves back. As for what you want him to do, it is your freedom. As long as you are willing, you can even give some beautiful female slaves..." The waiter made a stern look. As long as this look is a man, you can understand it.

When Jing Wen heard this, he felt even more moved. Because he wanted to open a restaurant, he opened one in the Tang Dynasty. However, Jing Wen was very afraid of technology leaks. Jing Wen knew that all the techniques he had learned were from later generations, and it was very advanced in the Tang Dynasty. Take cooking skills as an example. He, a otakus in later generations, could learn to be better than the cooking skills of the Tang Dynasty imperial chef after watching his daily diet for more than ten years.

Since Jing Wen learned this, he had the idea of ​​opening a restaurant. However, Jing Wen didn't want to cook in person, because Jing Wen couldn't take care of his energy, so he couldn't cook for those customers himself. Therefore, Jing Wen wanted to pass on the cooking skills to others. But if he taught them to others, then he would run away after learning the cooking skills, and then he would suffer a great loss.

In this time and space, there is no patent law, and it is impossible to guarantee that one's own interests will not be lost. If those chefs learn cooking skills and run away to another house, then they really have no way to deal with it. Even after their restaurants become popular, other restaurants will definitely come to poach others' chefs. If the restaurants become popular and don't poach others' chefs, Jing Wen will probably doubt whether they are qualified businessmen.

Since poaching is inevitable, we must find a way to improve the loyal ministers of our subordinates. However, Jing Wen recognized one thing, that is, in absolute interests, anyone would betray him, and Jing Wen himself could not avoid this situation. This is the case with Jing Wen, so he would not completely trust anyone.

Jing Wen hopes to teach his subordinates how to cook, but he is worried that they will betray them. This is a big problem. However, now that with these slaves, you can teach them with confidence. Because unless they are traded, others cannot poach them. What's more, as long as those slaves betray them, you can report them to the government to execute them. In this case, loyalty is not a problem.

"Do you have those slaves who are good at skill here?" Jing Wen asked.

"Keep, what kind of slaves do you want? For example, those who can serve people, those who can do rough work, those who can take care of the flower garden, and even those who can fold quilts and warm the bed for you! However, these beautiful slaves may be a bit expensive!" The despicable man hinted again.

"Okay, okay, you don't need to say more, take me in and have a look." Jing Wen said.

The vulgar man seemed to have seen that he could get the so-called agency fee and immediately took Jing Wen in excitedly. Because he saw that Jing Wen's temperament was not like an ordinary person, but an educated person, he was like this.
