Lumian walked back to his seat, sat down quite casually, looked at the "giant" Simon opposite and said:
"whats the matter?"
"Giant" Simon's light blue eyes glanced at Louis and Sakota behind Lumian:
"Aren't they from Brignel, and you actually let them follow you?"
"If it were me, I would have asked them to guard the door of the dance hall."
Louis and Sakota were touched by "Giant" Simon's words, and they both looked at Lumian a little uneasily.
Lumian felt like applauding and thanking "Giant" Simon for giving him such an opportunity to win people's hearts.
Although he couldn't really trust Luis and Sakota, after all, he didn't really want to be a gangster, but he also didn't want to be shot multiple times in the back one day.
Lumian smiled and said:
"What kind of person is Brignel? I was once a subordinate of Brignel!"
"We are all members of the Savoy Party and Boss Pan. As long as I remain loyal to Boss, I don't have to worry about them betraying me!"
Louis and Sakota nodded frequently, admiring Charles's stinginess:
Yes, Baron Brignier changed our status in the Savoy Party and gave us a lot of trust, but we are always members of the Savoy Party, and it is impossible for us to betray the boss and let us follow. Ciel is the boss who listens to his orders!
"Giant" Simon was choked by Lumian's words, and after a few seconds he said:
"You are loyal to the boss, but some people may not. Brignel is very ambitious."
Do you think Baron Brignel is not so loyal to his boss? "Hidden Blade", uh, "Red Boots" Franka also said that Baron Brignel has not been very obedient recently... Lumian suddenly felt that Gardner Martin, the boss of the Savoyard Party, was a bit miserable and his most capable subordinate. Not so loyal, his favorite mistress has another purpose, and the newly promoted person is a spy sent by another organization.
Seeing that he could not get rid of Louis and Sarkota, two thugs who often followed Baron Brignel and had a certain understanding of all aspects of affairs, "Giant" Simon changed the topic back on track:
"I came to see you to discuss the basic salary of dancers."
++TMD, why do we have to pay those bitches every day, even if they don’t take a single customer?
Franka was too overbearing and over the top. Just because she was the boss's mistress, she actually got the boss to agree to such an unreasonable thing!
We are a gang, not a charity organization. We are so steamy that when we give money to those bitches, I think I am a priest!
"I'm lucky. I only have to pay a few ricks a day. Your Breeze Ballroom pays 1 filkin per day, and the female textile workers in the Botanical Garden only pay 1.5 filkin per day. They are busy from morning to night!"
In Trier, the cost of hiring female workers is about 55% to 17% of hiring male workers. Those who are more ruthless, are not afraid of being investigated, and those who dare to find child labor only need to pay adult fruits. Fifteen percent salary, maybe even less.
No wonder none of Franca's beautiful dancers want to go to Nightingale Street. The prices there are cheap and the basic salary is low... Why do you want to imitate Franka and Jenna in swearing? Are swear words contagious? Aurore occasionally went crazy, and seemed to have cursed like this when he was shouting on horseback... Lumian deliberately ignored the hint given by Yi Shiyi's eyes and asked with a smile:
"how do you want to do it?"
“Giant” Simon maintained an angry expression:
"I, you, and Blake will go to the boss together and make him change his mind and let him take good care of Franka! Which other gangster gives the dancer a minimum salary?"
Is this bullying me? I just took over Breeze Dance Hall and I don’t understand anything. Are you trying to encourage me to rebel against the boss? Haha, Aurore said that early bugs are eaten by birds, and aggressive crows are shot... Lumian raised his hands and pinched his knuckles with a smile:
"It's useless. Franka is the boss's mistress. The boss will definitely listen to her. If you want the boss to change his mind, there is only one way, and that is for you to be the boss!"
Can you say this in front of so many people? Lewis, Sakota and others behind Lumian were so frightened that they almost reached out and covered their leader's mouth.
“Giant” Simon was also a little frightened:
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Most of the thugs following him looked trembling.
"I mean..." Lumian suddenly grabbed the edge of the table and lifted it towards "Giant" Simon!
Bang!
The table fell to the ground and the cups on it shattered into pieces.
“Giant” Simon had already left his position and took two steps back. He had a stern face, and while his men were holding down the revolvers, he looked at Lumian and said:
"What are you going to do?"
Lumian stood behind the overturned wooden table and cursed angrily:
"You piece of shit, do you still have the boss in your eyes? You dare to connect in private and force the boss to change the order! Do you really want to be the boss?"
"Boss's orders must be implemented whether they are good or bad. If you have any problems, you can communicate with the boss privately, but you must not join forces to force him!"
This kind of questioning pointed directly at the intentions of "Giant" Simon, making him neither dare to get angry nor continue to instigate Ciel.
He spat and said:
"TMD, are you mentally ill? When did I want to force the boss? I just said that everyone should talk to the boss together and tell him that it is really unreasonable to give the dancers a basic salary. This has given us a lot of trouble. burden."
After saying that, "Giant" Simon waved his hand, put on an expression that was difficult to communicate with you, Ciel, and then turned around and left.
Watching him leading his men all the way into the stairs, and stepping down, Lumian secretly laughed in his heart:
Thank you so much. Wait until tomorrow, no, tonight, the boss will know that Charles is loyal to him!
Lumian suddenly discovered the opportunity to gain the trust of Gardner Martin, so he acted decisively.
He exhaled pretending to be angry, calmed down his expression, pointed at the messy ground, and said to Louis and others:
"Tidy up."
As soon as Lumian finished speaking, he saw a person walking out of the shadow of the stairs.
That was the same Jenna who performed in the ballroom before.
Today, Jenna's dress is not so revealing. The rose-colored dress is supported by bones, like an upside-down flower. Her long brown hair is simply tied into a bun behind her head, and most of it is draped smoothly. When she came down, her blue eyes were not as thick and deep as before, which made her lose part of her depraved charm, and she had a more elegant feeling, and the black mole was stuck in the middle of her left cheek. This represents elegance.
Looking at Jenna, Lumian smiled:
“Can people in the market district appreciate this style?”
He was referring to Jenna's current style of dressing that was not too revealing or "bitchy" enough.
Jian Na smiled slightly and said:
"The effect of doing this once in a while is not bad. Franka said that sometimes, the more you make men feel unfulfilled, the more they like it. Damn, I can't understand this mentality."
"What's the matter?" Lumian looked at the waiters who were cleaning up, then found another table and sat down.
Jian Na sat opposite him and said with a smile:
"I'm here to talk about the cost of singing next week. Before, it was 10 songs a night, 4 firkin, and another third of the money thrown on the stage."
"I seem to be more popular recently than in the past few months!"
Lumian thought for a moment and said:
"Are you suspected by the Stinger Gang and can't sing in their dance halls?"
++I get angry when I talk about this! Can't you just pretend to be a good person? It was so easy to be recognized, and it even got me into trouble! Jenna responded rather angrily.
Lumian smiled:
"Starting from today, you still have 10 songs every night, but the fee is mentioned as 10 firkin, and you can get two-thirds of the money thrown on the stage."
This made Louis behind Lumian feel distressed. Although the "little bitch" didn't come to sing every night, she came quite a few times a week. Calculating this, Breeze Dance Hall would earn less than two thousand Firkin every year. !
No, the "little bitch" seems to have helped a lot in the leader's attack on "Iron Hammer" Aite. For this reason, she lost her singing opportunity with the Stinger Gang, and she lost more than a thousand fers every year. gold.
Jenna was very satisfied.
The singing price of 10 songs plus 2/3 of the singing fee is the top level of treatment in the underground singer circle.
She smiled and said:
"Go to dance halls in other districts to find opportunities?" Lumian asked casually.
Jian Na shook her head:
"No, how the hell do I have so much time to sing? I have other things to do."
"Isn't your profession an underground singer?" Lumian asked slightly curiously.
"This is a part-time job, a part-time job!" Jenna emphasized and said with a smile, "My main job is the shared mistress of Ciel the Lion and Franka the Red Boots!"
Hearing this joke, Yi Si was almost frightened to the point of weakness in his legs.
In his impression, "Red Boots" Franka was a very jealous woman, and she taught men who tried to take advantage of the "little bitch" a lesson.
If the boss really becomes a lover with the little bitch, he will definitely have to bear the wrath of "Red Boots"!
Does this guy have another identity? Lumian's thoughts changed and he asked thoughtfully:
"Is Jenna her real name, or a fake name?"
The underground singers who work part-time often give themselves a pseudonym so as not to affect other jobs.
Jian Na raised the corners of her mouth, blinked her eyes and said:
"What do you think, Mr. Charles?"
She deliberately pronounced the accent on the name Ciel, which meant that you also used a pseudonym?
After saying that, Jian Na stood up, leaned forward, crossed the wooden table, leaned into Lumian's ear, and said in a lowered voice:
"After listening to your conversation with Simon the Giant, I have a sincere suggestion.
"The less loyal people are, the more they like to talk about loyalty. You've gone too far, hehe."
Jian Na then straightened up, turned around proudly, and walked towards the stairs.
It's finally her turn to "coach" Ciel!
Yeah? While thinking about it, Lumian looked at Jenna's back and said, "You didn't wear perfume today?"
Jian Na turned around and asked happily:
"So you didn't notice me coming upstairs?"
