In fact, when he secretly doubled the standard amount, Manager Li was very scared. Although he knew that Zhou Yiming and his group of strong men had no idea what the original standard amount was, so even if he secretly did something, They certainly couldn't tell, but the only thing he was worried about was his own shopkeeper.
Because when this standard was formulated, it was used with his consent, so he knows better than anyone else what the standard amount is. If the standard amount is blatantly doubled under his nose, it will not only be a This is a very immoral thing, and in his view, it is a challenge to his authority.
Manager Li knew in his heart that although he had always been favored by the shopkeeper, his ability was actually far from being able to start his own business. Before his ability reached a certain level, he still needed to continue to hone himself in this bank. , after all, as the saying goes, it is better to have a shade with a big tree at your back. If he leaves this place where he can develop his skills, it will be difficult for him to find a satisfactory place to stay.
It was precisely because he had such concerns that after being taught a lesson by Shopkeeper Lu, he was immediately frightened out of his wits. He quickly stood up straight and admitted his mistake to Shopkeeper Lu: "Shopkeeper, I was wrong. Just now I Because I was teased by this kid, I got mad for a while. When I told him this method, I changed the standard amount on an impromptu basis. My idea of doing this was actually very simple. I just wanted to give this kid a bad look. Let him give up and get out as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if he continues to be entangled here, it will have a great impact on our bank's business. "
Shopkeeper Lu frowned with a displeased expression on his face. Of course he knew in his heart that Manager Li was still being cunning when he admitted his mistake. What he said before may have been spoken from the bottom of his heart, but The following paragraph is entirely intended to use the name of business to confuse myself and thus excuse myself.
Originally, Shopkeeper Lu didn't want to show mercy to Manager Li. He wanted to point out his mistake in front of everyone, then reprimand him, and then step in to resolve the dispute between Yi Ming and his subordinates, and finally let this matter go. Big things turn into small things, small things turn into nothing.
But after thinking about it, he felt that doing so was too cruel for Manager Li. After all, he had been his most effective helper before this. If he didn't save face for him in this matter, he would do it in public. If he is embarrassed in front of everyone, how will he be able to gain a foothold in the bank in the future?
Before he was sure whether Zhou Ming was a real talent, he interrupted his right and left hand. This was undoubtedly very stupid. After all, as the saying goes, you help your relatives but don't help. Even if Zhou Ming was involved in this dispute, No matter how reasonable you are, if he can't use it for yourself in the end, what's the point of helping him?
After thinking of this, Shopkeeper Lu immediately changed his attitude. He lowered his voice with a serious face and said: "Manager Li, you have followed me for so many years and you know my character very well. If it were normal, you would have committed a crime. I will definitely not let you go if you make such a mistake.
But today, seeing as this is the first time you have made such a mistake, and the original intention of doing such a thing was to consider the interests of the bank, so for the sake of your loyalty, I will let you go for the time being. But you have to keep in mind that this is just this one time and it won’t happen next time.
One more thing I want to remind you is that the young man you are dealing with is quite courageous. I want to take him into my own hands and use him as my capable helper.
So when you deal with him later, be sure not to do things too badly, otherwise you two will not be able to work together in the future. "
Manager Li naturally knew that Shopkeeper Lu had no eyes for him, so even though he had sincerely admitted his mistake, he also knew in his heart that there was a high probability that he would not be forgiven.
Just when he was scared out of his mind and didn't know where to find a living in the future, he suddenly heard that shopkeeper Lu decided to let him go this time.
He couldn't believe his ears at first. After confirming that Shopkeeper Lu really meant this, he was overjoyed. He knew in his heart that Shopkeeper Lu was usually meticulous in doing things and was difficult to be deceived. The reason why he was able to forgive himself this time , there is only one reason for letting him go, and that is that he has a certain position in his heart. Even if he wants to punish himself, he will have some concerns. After all, he is now his most capable general.
Thinking of this, Manager Li felt even more elated, but this good mood did not last long.
Hearing that Shopkeeper Lu said that he intended to recruit Yi Ming for his own use, Manager Li was stunned for a moment and didn't say a word for a long time.
This blow was really too big for him. Thinking of having to work face to face with Yi Ming in the future, he was ready to die, because in the brief contact with Yi Ming just now, he had already discovered that this boy was not only capable , and he is so bold that if he is put on the line with Shopkeeper Lu, it won't take long before he will replace him.
After a brief silence, Manager Li hurriedly agreed to Shopkeeper Lu's instructions, and he kept admitting his mistake.
Shopkeeper Lu was very satisfied with his performance. Out of trust in him, Shopkeeper Lu didn't say anything more. Instead, he sat back on the chair and planned to see how Manager Li would handle the dispute in the end.
After appeasing Shopkeeper Lu, Manager Li turned around with a changed expression. In fact, when he was talking to Shopkeeper Lu just now, he had already had another plan in mind. He was ready to fight Zhou Ming to the death. After all, let him be embarrassed in front of Shopkeeper Lu today, because only in this way can he stop this kid from taking his job.
Manager Li walked up to Yi Ming and said with a wicked smile: "Little brother, I have finished explaining the second verification method. If you feel scared, it is not too late to kneel down and beg for mercy now, otherwise you will not be able to see me later. If a person's identity is ruthlessly exposed, you won't even have time to cry."
Zhou Yiming smiled slightly, thinking that Manager Li had spent so much time just now. I thought he was going to come up with some horrifying method. It turned out that he just asked people to take out the money directly to prove that he was rich. I don’t know which fool came up with this stupid method.
He subconsciously touched the banknote in his arms with his wrist, and thought to himself with some luck, it's a good thing I brought this banknote out, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to deal with today's big battle.
"Manager Li, don't talk nonsense. Since I dare to stand here and choose this method to verify my identity, I have the strength." Zhou Ming said tit for tat, not losing the momentum in the slightest, "On the contrary, I I'm worried about you, if it turns out that I'm a rich man, will you guys who look down on others with your petty views be kicked out by your boss immediately?"
This question immediately hit the minds of Manager Li and the group of strong men. They all knew that based on Shopkeeper Lu's work style, if they really made a mistake this time, they would probably lose their job.
But now that the matter has reached this point, they no longer worry about this problem, because they are 100% sure in their hearts that Yi Ming is a poor boy who pretends to be a rich man and comes here to cheat. For ten thousand taels of silver, no matter how good he is at deceiving others, his lies will be self-defeating.
"Poor guy, you should worry about yourself!"
"If you can't come up with the money in a while, I'll beat you until you vomit blood!"
"Young man, don't take a pee and take a look at yourself. Look at what one thing on your body is worth ten thousand taels of silver. Do you think your head is worth that much?"
After hearing Zhou Ming's provocation, the strong men immediately opened their mouths to fight back.
"How audacious!" Manager Li had no intention of letting Zhou Ming go. Seeing that he was so arrogant when he was about to die, Manager Li became even more furious. "Well, since you have so much confidence in yourself, Then we might as well increase the stakes!"
When Shopkeeper Lu heard what Manager Li said, he immediately realized that something was wrong. He thought to himself, didn't I just tell Manager Li to be merciful? Why is he raising the stakes now?
Although he didn't understand what Manager Li was doing, Shopkeeper Lu didn't immediately stand up to stop him, because he knew very well that if he stood up again and again to whisper to Manager Li, he would definitely be suspected by others. What kind of conspiracy? If this makes Zhou Ming misunderstand him, then the gain outweighs the loss.
It was precisely because of this concern that Shopkeeper Lu sat on the chair and remained silent.
Zhou Yiming originally wanted to take care of these scornful slaves, but he never found a suitable opportunity or method. When he heard that Manager Li was going to raise the stakes, he was very happy.
"How do you want to add it? Just tell me." Zhou Ming said without fear and with a smile.
"Simple." Manager Li gritted his teeth and said, "If you can take out something worth ten thousand taels of silver from yourself later, my buddies and I will quit our jobs and get out of the city from now on. Show your face, and before leaving, you will be beaten or punished, we will obey you and will never resist."
The group of strong men behind the door were all very happy when they saw that Zhou Yiming and Manager Li were raising the stakes, because they hated Zhou Ming and believed that he would definitely lose.
But later, Manager Li involved them when he raised the stakes, which made them a little worried, because if something unexpected happened, they wouldn't even have a place to eat.
However, such worries did not affect their good mood, because they had long looked down on Zhou Ming and felt that even if they put him in a frying pan and fried him, they would not be able to get a tael of oil out of it.
Zhou Yiming was stunned for a moment. He really didn't expect that Manager Li would be so bold and put his own future on the line.
