Chapter 142: Rectifying the Brothel (Part 2)
All of a sudden, several brothel madams sat down on the ground with their legs apart, crying loudly.
"Master Chen, this brothel cannot be closed, it cannot be closed!"
"The girls all rely on this business to make a living. If the brothel closes, won't the girls starve to death?"
"Master Chen, you are pushing these girls into a desperate situation!"
All four madams burst into tears. They had never been so sad when their parents died.
The prostitutes below covered their faces and cried.
If the brothel closes, they will be homeless and won’t know where to stay.
"Why are you all crying? Since my husband has spoken, he will definitely not care about your life or death!"
Xu Ruolan spoke unhappily.
Upon hearing this, the madams immediately stopped crying and tentatively asked, "What does Master Chen plan for us to do next?"
Chen Xuan didn't need to keep them in suspense. He got straight to the point and said, "There are four brothels here, with a total of over 150 people, right? I'm going to turn Happy Forest into a restaurant, a place dedicated to serious business and dining."
"Yihongyuan was renamed Zhiyi Building, a place dedicated to making clothes."
"Heaven on Earth has been renamed the Human Supermarket. From now on, all the girls here will serve as my waitresses!"
"The last Zui Zui Xian, changed my name to Agricultural Building. I happen to have several hundred acres of land that needs people to cultivate it."
Chen Xuan immediately converted one of the four brothels into a restaurant, one into a clothing store, one into a supermarket, and one into an agricultural laborer.
No one quite understood what a supermarket meant, so Chen Xuan gave a casual explanation, saying it was a department store that sold everything.
As for the Agricultural Building, Chen Xuan originally planned to call it the Agricultural Bureau, but after thinking it wasn't appropriate, he simply called it the Agricultural Building. All the fruits, grains, and vegetables picked from the ground were sent to the Agricultural Building for screening. Those of good quality were sent to supermarkets to sell, and those of poor quality were sold on the roadside, or simply given to the poor to eat.
After hearing Chen Xuan's thoughts, everyone was stunned.
Especially the madams, they never expected that Chen Xuan would blast the brothel.
This is simply outrageous!
"Don't worry, I won't force you to stay. If you want to leave and don't have an indenture, you can leave at any time. If you do have an indenture, I won't make it difficult for you. Just pay one or two ounces of silver, and I'll return the indenture to you."
Chen Xuan spoke in a calm tone.
The entire scene exploded in an instant!
"What? Only one ounce of silver?"
"This, this is just a bargain!"
"Mr. Chen is really kind-hearted. He is doing a great deed!"
The cheapest of the indentures in Chen Xuan's hands costs fifty taels of silver.
The most expensive one even costs more than two hundred taels!
Don’t even think about redeeming yourself for the rest of your life!
But now, Chen Xuan actually set a price directly. No matter how much the indenture was worth, he would release the person for one or two taels of silver.
"Master Chen, are you serious?"
Someone immediately couldn't help but ask.
"Of course!"
Chen Xuan nodded.
If he could really recover all the money from these indentures at the original price, Chen Xuan would at least be able to earn a few thousand taels of silver.
But Chen Xuan would never do such a thing as giving birth to a son without an anus.
His goal was to liberate these poor women.
The reason why I charged them one or two taels of silver was to let them know that since they had signed the contract to sell their bodies, they would have to pay a price. I can help you, but I won’t help you for free.
"Master Chen, I want to redeem myself!"
Immediately, a woman couldn't help but speak, and took out the copper coins she had collected for a long time.
For them, it is difficult to save even small change, and being able to save some copper coins is already very good.
"Okay, come here."
Chen Xuan pointed at the woman who spoke first, and the woman immediately came over.
He handed the money to Xu Ruolan, who counted it and found it was exactly one thousand copper coins and one tael of silver.
"What's your name?" Chen Xuan asked.
"Liu Lulu." The young lady spoke with an expectant look on her face.
"Okay, I'll look for it."
Chen Xuan immediately searched through a pile of indentures and soon found Liu Lulu's indenture.
"Is this the one?"
Liu Lulu took the indenture and burst into tears. She covered her mouth with her hands and nodded frantically, "It's it, it's it!"
"Very good, it's yours now. You can burn it, destroy it, eat it, whatever you want. You are free. From now on, you can do whatever you want. No one has the right to restrict you."
Chen Xuan smiled.
Liu Lulu knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Chen Xuan. She said gratefully, "Thank you so much, Master Chen. I have no way of repaying you for your kindness. I will do anything for you in my next life!"
"You're welcome. You can repay me now and become my employee." Chen Xuan laughed.
When the other girls around saw that Chen Xuan was not lying and that one or two taels of silver could really redeem the indenture contract, they all became excited instantly.
"Master Chen, I also want to redeem my indenture!"
"And me, and me, my name is Li Fangfei!"
"Master Chen, and I..."
"Don't worry, come one by one."
Chen Xuan signaled everyone to line up in an orderly manner.
In the end, it took nearly half an hour.
There are one hundred and thirty indentures, and fifty are left.
In other words, there are still fifty people who do not have the money to redeem their indentures.
The girls who redeemed their indentures cried for joy, some even cried bitterly, and felt relieved.
And those girls who had no money to redeem their indentures could only express envy.
Chen Xuan looked at everyone and said in a loud voice, "So far, I have already redeemed the indentures of eighty girls. There are still fifty girls who have not been redeemed. But you don't have to lose heart. As long as the indentures are in my hands, I will always let you redeem them at the price of one or two taels of silver!"
"And next, I won't let you lose your jobs. Now, I'm going to get down to business. Everyone, listen up."
“All the girls who work under me, whether they are in the restaurant, the weaving shop, the supermarket, that is, the department store, or the agricultural building!”
"As long as you work here, no matter what you do, I will pay you 300 coins a month!"
"Also, food and lodging are provided! You'll get eight days of vacation per month!"
Boom!
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire scene was in an uproar again.
Chen Xuan's words undoubtedly made everyone present feel incredible!
"Did I hear correctly? Three hundred coins a month, with food and lodging included?"
"Is Master Chen the reincarnation of the Bodhisattva?"
