Chapter 38 Two Hundred Housekeepers

The wedding banquet ended, and the guests and friends said goodbye. Although Zhang Ziqiang drank a lot, he drank fruit wine. He felt a little hot all over his body, but his head was awake.

On the afternoon of the same day, Amilia personally selected thirty newly bought most beautiful maids into the inner garden. The males, including Old Dovers, all lived in the newly built houses in the outer garden. There were three newly built houses in the outer garden, all of which were two-story buildings, with about thirty houses on each floor. The remaining seventy maids were arranged in the inner garden, and the other two houses lived in the male servants and guards.

There are 200 newly bought servants, half men and half men and women, all between the ages of sixteen and seventeen. The lowest one is only the fourth level of Qi Refining Stage, and the highest one is only the sixth level. According to the experience of this world, without special adventures, it is impossible for these people to reach the foundation building stage with the qualifications of these people. Only such people will sell themselves as servants. Anyone who has some hope will grit their teeth and become hired to rush to the foundation building stage. Old Dovers preached the family rules to them. Zhang Ziqiang listened to those rules and couldn't help but think of the scene in a movie "Tang Bohu's Fragrance" I once watched, and laughed faintly.

These male servants were very excited when they heard that the master planned to train them as guards. They did not have to work in errands but cultivated them to refine their energy. This kind of opportunity is hard to come by. After all, the salary of being a guard is much higher, and you can get four or five gold coins a month. If you are lucky enough to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, no master will regard a Foundation Establishment Stage as an ordinary servant. At that time, either you earn money to redeem yourself or continue to serve in the family, you will be too much stronger than the servants.

This good news filled these young men and women who were originally destined to survive at the lowest level of society. When Dovers said that choosing 50 for one hundred was full of fighting spirit, everyone was full of fighting spirit. Everyone was selling themselves as servants. No one was better than anyone else. Whoever worked harder and endured harder would have the lead. How could these people give up this opportunity?

The maids were not expected to be arranged to practice. For them, it would be fortunate that they could be put into the room by their immediate relatives in the master's family and inherit the family lineage for their family. If they didn't have this luck, the master arranged to marry a male servant once four years, and from then on, the family would serve the master's family and live a lifetime. How could the master arrange for women to practice Qi and martial arts? Generally, they only practice Qi before going to bed, so how could they have time to practice in normal times?

Zhang Ziqiang arranged these maids to practice together to consider that, first, the maids were easy to return home; second, the family really lacked the power of guarding, and Zhangzhuang alone could raise these people. Anyway, the marriage of these women was designated by the master's family. After learning "Zhang's Defensive Seven Styles", as long as they were designated to marry those loyal and powerful male servants, both husband and wife would protect the family, and the possibility of betrayal was much less. He also arranged for Owen as the main instructor, and Gewen as the deputy instructor to conduct regular training every day, and appointed Gurok as the captain of the guard team. This arrangement would also make King Carus feel at ease.

After all these were announced, Zhang Ziqiang entered the inner village and saw the garden full of beakers, which was pleasing to the eye. It is undeniable that as long as a man, he would like to see all this. A girl of sixteen or seventeen is full of youthful vitality. It is a good time for youthful youth. It looks pleasing to the eye. Of course, this feeling has nothing to do with the moon, it is purely an appreciation of beauty.

Amilia took Xiao Cui to clean up gifts and settle accounts. Haha, her persistent love for gold coins may be related to the fact that women in this world also have to support their families. When she saw Zhang Ziqiang coming in, she hurriedly took Xiao Cui to get up and shouted sweetly: "Master!"

Zhang Ziqiang is still not used to this title, but thinking about it, it is terrible to ask Xiao Cui to call him Young Master, so they may not dare to call him a name directly. As for her husband, Amilia may not understand what it means at all, so she no longer insists.

"Well, you're calculating again? Now you're enough gold coins, don't count so carefully. Or let Xiao Cui calculate it, don't make yourself so tired every day."

"I'm not tired, Xiao Cui is not clear about some things. I have to write down the gift I received today. In the future, we have to return the gifts to other people's houses. "Amilia replied with a smile.

"Where has Kailin gone?" Zhang Ziqiang has been with Kailin for a while. He didn't see her all morning and felt that something was missing.

"She and Fennath went to Wangdu to play. Dovers still want to go back to Wangdu to guard the store tonight."

"Take time to take your brother and the others over, and then hand over the manor over there to them. The store in the capital will not be rented anymore. It is not enough to sell the extra things in the manor to the leaseholders in Zhangzhuang."

"Okay, I'm just planning to do this," Amilia said happily. How could ordinary families treat her family so well? Amilia is sincerely happy for her choice.

Zhang Ziqiang took the tea handed over by Xiao Cui, sniffed it deeply, and drank a lot of wine at noon. The wine in the world is pure and not so good. Compared with the previous Moutai, in addition to the low-degree, the taste is only strong and not weak! It also has aura, and good wine and tea are better. Zhang Ziqiang has also tasted good tea in the past few months since he came. He especially likes to drink Xiao Cui's tea. It seems that this little girl has put in some effort.

Amilia introduced to Zhang Ziqiang: "There are thirty maids in the inner garden. I chose it and I can look good. The 200 servants I bought this time are all from poor families. These people in the inner garden are even more homeless. Some of them lost their families during the war, while others were abandoned by their families and raised by the Kingdom Elementary College. These people will recognize their families after a little training."

"Oh, they are all pitiful people." Zhang Ziqiang didn't have many good ways to face this situation. There are too many such people in the kingdom, both men and women, how many can he save if he wants to save? Besides, he himself has no power and is not a strong man. After sitting for a while, he feels a little dizzy- I still drank too much wine at noon.

Seeing that Zhang Ziqiang was drunk a little, Amilia asked Xiao Cui to gather in the inner garden maids and preach the rules. She helped Zhang Ziqiang back to her room to rest. The wine in this world was a bit like the rice wine brewed in rural China. If you drink less and you have a lot of energy, you will have a lot of energy after drinking too much. At first, you didn't feel it, but you would feel dizzy after a while. So, he just lie down and slept like a pile of mud.

After sleeping until dinner, Amilia cooked some porridge with her own hands. Zhang Ziqiang looked at Xiao Cui and Amilia on the table, and asked while drinking, "Has Karin not come back yet?"

"Dovers keeps her with him tonight, and Fennert plays with her, otherwise how could she please."

"Oh, why didn't Dovers come to have a meal?" Thinking that he finally got rid of the big light bulb tonight, it was a rare opportunity. He smiled at Amilia in a terrible way, and at the same time he was speechless.

When Amilia saw his strange smile, how could she not understand? Her pretty face turned slightly red, and then she said seriously: "Although our family is not a noble now, Zhangzhuang used to be Wangzhuang, so she naturally acted according to the rules of the nobles. If she was still as casual as before, she would not make people laugh at it."

"What's wrong? What's the rules of the nobles?" Zhang Ziqiang asked in confusion.

"How can Dovers, a man in the inner courtyard, come in? Besides, the master and servant are different seats. We used to be civilians, so we didn't care about it, but now we need to pay attention."

"Oh" Although Zhang Ziqiang disagreed, he was not convenient to caress Amilia's feelings. He thought about it and asked again: "What are they eating outside? Is it the same as ours?"

"There are still a lot of things left at noon. If you don't finish your meal today, it will be broken tomorrow. Although there are rules for masters and servants to have different meals, they will not treat them badly in the food. They will eat whatever we eat. The inner garden is full of female relatives. Not to mention them, even some adult children and grandchildren cannot come in. In a family, the inner garden can only be the direct elders of the head of the family and the head of the family."

Isn't Xiao Cui a servant? How could he sit with us? But Zhang Ziqiang couldn't ask any questions in front of Xiao Cui. In addition, the inner courtyard was full of maids. Of course, he could not have thought that these maids were specially selected by Amilia for him, just to develop the family and pass on the family line. However, Amilia thought he knew it, but these people are now sixteen or seventeen years old, and they don't have to be raised for two or three years, so he didn't feel strange about Zhang Ziqiang.

Zhang Ziqiang was not easy to ask about Xiao Cui’s dinner, but heard that the dishes at the banquet would be broken tomorrow. He has been thinking these days that he wanted to find a good project to win over some powerful nobles to make them together, and also find a backer for himself. He asked, "Can't the dishes be preserved? Why will they be broken tomorrow?"

"Haha, the dishes you have cooked cannot be kept for too long. Even some fresh vegetables will break in a few days." Amilia didn't expect that there were too many men in the kitchen in this world.

"Oh?" Zhang Ziqiang thought to himself that there must be no refrigerator in this world. In addition, the four seasons are like spring, and they have been in this lukewarm and hot weather. They cannot find that low temperatures can save vegetables, but they have to make a refrigerator. Not to mention where the electricity comes from, they don't know how to make a refrigerator. After thinking about it, they feel that it can't be realized, so they throw these ideas aside.

After dinner, Zhang Ziqiang held a cup of tea and was thinking about it. However, Amilia became anxious and told Xiao Cui to pour water for foot washing. While drinking tea, he let Xiao Cui rub his feet. Life was very comfortable and she didn't feel embarrassed.
