My ancient leisure life

Xu Nuo looked at the two shopkeepers in front of him, he didn't believe that they didn't know anything, and said with a cold face: "That's how you manage, you don't even know what happened to the people below."

The two stewards are honest people. At that time Zhou Yuyi said that it is good to be too shrewd, but it is terrible that they cannot be suppressed, so it is better to be honest.

It's really good now, but he is loyal, but he can't control the people below. If Cheng Ge didn't suppress him with a dark face all day long, something would have happened long ago.

One of the shopkeepers, Lin, said: "Boss, we really don't know. We really don't know what you said about giving them freedom after work, where they go to do things, or what extra thoughts they have."

"Yes, Master." Another shopkeeper Wang said: "If we really know about such a big matter, we will definitely report it to you, and we will never hide it."

Xu Nuo stroked his chin and thought about it. This is what happened. If they knew and didn't tell him, they wouldn't want to do it here again.

Moreover, they sell themselves, and there are many ways to retaliate against them.If I think about it, I blame myself, I just want to give these slaves a little freedom, don't exploit them too much, and cause trouble for myself.

"Find a few reliable people, watch their every move, see who they have contact with, and I want to see what tricks they want to play."

Xu Nuo looked at the two shopkeepers and said solemnly: "I have worked hard for you these three days. I will not interfere with how you manage the guild hall and these attendants in the future. If you do well, I will give you freedom in three years. If you want to stay here It’s fine to continue being the shopkeeper, I’ll give you the deeds and hire you to be the shopkeeper.”

"Thank you, my boss." Shopkeeper Zhang thanked him with a look of surprise.

"Boss, don't worry, we have decided to work hard and will not let you down." Shopkeeper Lin also expressed his loyalty.

"En." Xu Nuo nodded and said, "Go down."

After they left, Xu promised to be worried. Anyone with a discerning eye knew that there was a problem, but he didn't know anything about it. This was really too passive.

He had a premonition in his heart that he was inseparable from their guild hall, but he didn't know who was making trouble in it and what was his purpose

A big warm hand stretched out, caressing between his brows, trying to loosen his wrinkled lines, "What's the rush, what a big deal it can be"

Cheng Ge saw his tense and melancholy face, and softly comforted him distressedly: "It's nothing more than the guild hall's business. Apart from this, there is nothing else that can be plotted by others. Knowing this, what are you afraid of?"

"I'm afraid of this!" Xu Nuo felt a lot more relaxed when he said that, but he still said solemnly: "If our guild hall can't continue, we will suffer a lot. The most annoying thing is that we have worked so hard for so long, not for others. wedding dress?"

Cheng Ge smiled indifferently and said, "I'm thinking a lot about melon seeds. They plan not to go to this guild hall. It's nothing more than opening another one to dig people here."

Xu Nuo wanted to say something more, but Bie Chengge stopped him and said, "Don't think about it, wait until the two shopkeepers finish checking the news. You only remember one thing, no matter who it is or what it is, they can only take a share from you. It’s impossible to want more.”

In the Zhou mansion, Zhou Yushu said to Xu with a smile on his face: "Brother is very famous in the state capital now, and the master thinks highly of him, and the people he associates with are all the children of powerful and eunuch families. Have a look."

Xu's brows were filled with joy when he said this, "Your elder brother has become a leader, you should learn more from him to make your mother look better."

Not long after she was happy, she was stumped by what the younger son said next. She had been thinking about this for the past few days and hadn't come up with a good solution. She didn't expect the elder son to need it, and he was still so urgent.

"Mother." Zhou Yushu pulled his mother's sleeve and said, "What else are you thinking about? This is what the eldest brother wants, and we have to make it for him no matter what. This is a good way to curry favor with those dignitaries."

"Hey!" Xu sighed, "How could Mother not know this? Even if your elder brother doesn't want it, Mother can't just sit and watch those two bastards prosper."

She hesitated to speak: "It's just that your grandfather's test is difficult. Every descendant of the Zhou family will give a shop until the age of 15. We just want to take it back like this, which is difficult."

"What are you afraid of?" Zhou Yushu sneered: "We are the first sons-in-law, don't we put us first in everything. Besides, the eldest brother said that if it doesn't work, we can change another shop for them. At worst, we lose a little, and we can always get it back later. "

"Okay, mother must ask for the shop." Xu Shi finally made up her mind, she is the mistress of the house, so what if she wants a shop for a concubine, if it doesn't work, just follow what the eldest son said, and find a shop that doesn't make money for them That is, the benefits cannot be given to those two bastards.

Mrs. Xu has always acted swiftly and resolutely, so she immediately went to find Zhou Baichuan.She is the magistrate's daughter, no matter how unwilling Mr. Zhou is, he still wants to show some face. In these years, she has always wanted to be as windy as possible, and no one in the Zhou family dared to contend with her except Mr. Zhou.

"Master." When Xu found Zhou Baichuan, he first praised his eldest son and then said, "Oh! This kid never said such things. If Yu Shu hadn't come back to talk about these things this time, we wouldn't know how he is. Promising."

"Well, it's good that Yuwen has a future, Sanfang will count on him in the future." Zhou Baichuan was disheartened, he had been unable to make any progress in the middle school for 20 years, he was no longer extravagant.

Xu covered the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief and said with a smile: "Master, Sanfang still has to count on you. Without Master Yuwen, how could they study abroad wholeheartedly."

"They don't have anything to worry about at home." Zhou Baichuan said indifferently.

Seeing that he was not very enthusiastic, Mrs. Xu frowned slightly, and her face darkened. Back then, she thought that he could soar into the sky, but she didn't expect that he had done nothing in the past few years, even the big and small affairs of the Zhou family were ignored.

"Master, I have something to discuss with you." Mrs. Xu took a sip of tea from her teacup, thinking about how to speak and get the shop smoothly.

"What's up"

Mrs. Xu said the eldest son's request again, and said helplessly: "There is no way to do this. Yuwen has worked so hard for so many years, but his network is still not satisfactory. We can help."

Zhou Baichuan looked at Mrs. Xu, how could he not understand what she meant, he had nagged in his ears many times in the past few days, that the guild hall was like a fortune, and it was too embarrassing for all the shops at home to be suppressed by a junior.

There are some things that can't be said clearly, and he also knows who the people go to this guild hall. The eldest son can use it to make some contacts smoothly, which is of great benefit and harmless.

But why does the shop here have to be? It’s not that the white money is dazzling. He has a headache when he thinks about it. Mr. Zhou’s pass is not easy. Other things are easy to talk about. joke.

"The guild hall that Yuwen opened in the state capital has nothing to do with this side, even if it is opened in the county, why bother with this shop, what benefits can they get from it except a few taels of silver, our Zhou family still lacks that Small profits."

"Oh." One sentence annoyed Mrs. Xu, she sneered and said, "Master, this is all about your two bastards. It's not like you don't know what kind of virtue they have. If Yuwen just opened the shop like this, they will definitely If Yuwen snatches their signboard, then Yuwen still doesn't want to lose face and let them ruin his reputation."

"Master, don't forget that Yuwen and the others are the sons of the third family, and if they become famous in the future, they will shine on the lintel of the Zhou family. Even if your bastard will be promising in the future, he is just a bastard who can't stand on the stage."

"Why, is the master distressed? Let me tell you, even if he went to his father, he wouldn't be able to say no to it, not to mention that Yuwen said that he couldn't treat his younger brother badly, and wanted to subsidize it to another shop."

"As a concubine, it's so difficult for me to have a shop for him. I have the final say on all the people and affairs of Sanfang. Now give them face, don't give them face."

The father Zhou Baichuan understood that it didn't just refer to Mr. Zhou, but mainly his father-in-law.Bringing out his father-in-law is a must, and even Mr. Zhou can't compete.

What else can he say at this time, after all, this shop is helpful to Yuwen, and he also agrees, but he thinks there is no need to have that shop in the town, one thing more is worse than one thing less.

Promised by Cheng Ge's reassurance, he finally became happy. He has always been open-minded, knowing that he has no connections in this place, and he doesn't have a father who will clean up everything for him. What can he do when facing the mountain that is pressing down on him? Woolen cloth!

He wasn't stupid and didn't understand things. These servants who were pinched by him dared to do this, and no one was bewitched to back them up. How dare they stroke his beard, who has the power of life and death over them.

If it wasn't for the sake of venting his anger, how could he increase the redemption money to 50 taels? He can't let himself suffer too much, he should subsidize some.

To be honest, he really didn't want to let them go like this, but if those white-eyed wolves who stayed by his side were instigated to do things that endangered the guild hall or their personal safety, the gain would outweigh the gain.

Sell ​​them elsewhere cleanly, and prevent these attendants and the people behind them from fulfilling their wishes. Xu Nuo knows quite self-knowledge that he doesn't have that ability now.

He dared to say that if one side sells people, the other side will immediately take them away. For these ancient rules, these people know better than himself, and he will suffer in the end.

If he learned from the big family and dealt with these servants, not to mention that he couldn't do it, he might bring trouble on himself, and the careless disregard of human life would definitely make him unable to bear it.

After all, the promise comes from modern times. Although he is a little angry and feels powerless against some people and things in ancient times, he will not punish himself with other people's mistakes, and he will not let the people around him be affected and bear his own namelessness. fire.

No wonder he was happily enjoying the delicious food in the restaurant at the moment, and persuaded Boss Cheng, Erdan, Cheng Yin and the others to eat more, "Try it quickly, the food in this restaurant is delicious, no worse than those big restaurants."

He brought them here in the name of celebration, and there was a hint of catharsis.As for what he said to them, it was thanks to their dedication to the guild hall for so long that he made a lot of money.

In order to be grateful and happy to have another income soon, everyone went out to have a meal together and celebrate it. To put it bluntly, it is also for today's matter to make them feel at ease.

Boss Cheng, Cheng Yin and his son, and Erdan, when they entered the restaurant, they were all in awe and worried about today's affairs. They were too cautious to move their chopsticks, and they also felt distressed at how much the exquisite dishes that had never been seen on this big table cost.

But under the exaggeration of Xu Nuo's smiling face, and Cheng Ge's understatement of persuasion, they also let go of eating and drinking. This is the first time and maybe the last time in their lives. Delicious food that I have never heard of.

After drinking and eating heartily, Xu Nuo looked at the backs of Erdan and the others as they left, man!No matter what happens in this life, but no matter good or bad, poor or rich, he tends to live happily every day.

"Two, my master has something to say." Just as he and Cheng Ge turned around and were about to drive home, they were stopped by a tall and strong man.
