"Zu Dao, someone is dishonest and playing a trick."
"Oh? What's the trick?"
"You asked them to collect 80% of their waist knives, and they wiped out all the names of those who were taken away and died in the previous wars. In this way, they only have a few more people in their hands. .”
Yang Xiu found Bai Lang, with a little anger flashing on his face.
Bailang secretly thought that it was true. This is like the boss wants to give you a wage increase, but the wages need to be taken from other workers to give you. When you find someone cheating and cheating, you find a reason to give less. How would you feel? Yang Xiu is like this now.
In fact, the flaw Yang Xiu mentioned is not big. In the past, the place with the most knives in the knife shop was Yang Xiu's men, followed by Qianfang.
Nowadays, the shopkeeper of Qianfang is still vacant, so naturally he doesn't know how to play tricks, and he belongs to Ma Sheng Alley. The vacant halls will be filled directly by ordinary waiters temporarily hired by Qianfang. Those who cause trouble or cause trouble will be handled by the few remaining waiters. If they cannot be handled, another waist knife will be called over.
In addition, Zhang Xun's men in the East Market also have many waist knives.
The remaining red swords actually have very few waist knives in their hands. Even if it is a trick, the waist knives that have been withdrawn several times in the past and have not been replenished since they died in the battle are not included in the total, and the total is lowered. In this way, the relative number will become smaller. .
But apart from the above three places, each red knifeman didn't have many waist knives in his hands, so he could only have one or two more people left for cheating and sneaking. To say "disrespecting orders" seems harsh again. But it's not necessarily true that he will act according to orders honestly. It is a matter of left or right.
In this case, Bailang will not actually start a fight, because the interpersonal relationships in the knife studio are not as simple as "superiors" and "subordinates". Overly harsh rules are not suitable here. Everyone is accustomed to the behavioral rules of "just enough" . If Bai Lang insists on holding on to this little thing, it will be easy for many signs that have been suppressed to come out.
At least until Bailang completes a complete internal restructuring, he can't do whatever he wants.
But Yang Xiu's reaction made Bai Lang laugh.
"Oh? Such small thoughts are indeed a bit childish. But one or two seems to be harmless. But Yang Hongdao, you are taking over the manpower this time. How should you deal with it in your opinion?"
"When Zuo Dao is newly appointed, the people below him will cheat and cheat. I think this trend will not last long! I am willing to punish Zuo Dao."
Yang Xiu doesn’t understand? He understands!
Yang Xiu not only knew what he was doing, but also knew the consequences of doing so, but he still chose to do so without hesitation. The only reason is that he wants to rely on Bailang's tree and become "one of his own" with Bailang like Zhou Dong and Liu Xu.
This is the name certificate.
Yang Xiu knew that Bailang couldn't care less when the people below him were so sneaky and sneaky, but it was really not easy to open the door, so he was a bit stuck. So he could help Bailang deal with the current embarrassment by standing up for him.
Of course, the cost of doing this is also very obvious, that is, all the red knives involved in this matter will be offended. Except Liu Xu. Because the office where Liu Xu was working only had two guards with waist knives, and they were not there to begin with.
"Are you willing to take the initiative? Have you thought clearly?"
"My subordinate has thought clearly!"
"Well, I only have one request for this matter, don't kill anyone and don't make a joke. Do you understand?"
"Yes! My subordinates will definitely handle it properly!"
"Very good, then I'll wait for your good news."
Yang Xiuying then bowed and retreated. Bailang wouldn't ask how he would find those red knives who were playing tricks after that. He just waits for the result. If done well, Yang Xiu can indeed be used more often. If it doesn't work well, Yang Xiu can only be regarded as a rush killer, and will even be replaced as soon as there is a suitable choice.
Yang Xiu left, and Bai Lang stood up from the chair and went to the yard with his hands behind his back. He saw that it was already approaching noon.
"What are you eating in the canteen today?" Bailang asked casually, as if he could smell the faint aroma of food.
"Ah? This subordinate will ask you now."
"Forget it, I took a walk"
Before he finished speaking, Bai Lang saw a knife-wielding man trotting over outside.
"Zu Dao, Zeng Fei, the general manager of the industrial park, wants to see you!"
"Zeng Fei? Let him come over. In addition, you can ask the canteen to cook some dishes and bring some wine. If it happens, please invite Zeng Fei to have a meal here."
"Yes, little one, let's do it right now."
Not long after, Bai Lang saw Zeng Fei in the courtyard, who bowed to him as soon as he entered the door. Behind Zeng Fei, a group of attendants came in carrying a table and baskets of food, and quickly set up a small table of noodles in the open space of the yard. Six dishes and one soup, plus two bottles of wine.
"Zeng Fei has met Bai Zuodao. Congratulations to Zuodao for his young and high position. He will be blessed with great luck and will fly thousands of miles in the future!"
"Haha, Manager Zeng was joking. Bailang only had his head tied to his waistband to eat while he was wearing a short sword. Where did the saying "thousands of miles away" come from? But Manager Zeng is now very proud of himself, and it's time for a great exhibition Why do you suddenly have time to come to my place during the fistfight?
Manager Zeng invited me here, and we chatted over some common meals. "
As Bai Lang spoke, he led Zeng Fei to sit at the small table and poured him a glass of wine himself.
"Haha, Zeng Fei is here to congratulate Mr. Bai on his assumption of the throne. There are also some congratulatory gifts, please accept them!" Zeng Fei said as he took out a small jade that was more than three inches tall from his arms. The bottle was handed over. To express congratulations.
"This is this?" Bai Lang saw that the bottle looked familiar, and it was very similar to the elixir jade bottle he had seen before. But he didn't answer, but asked curiously.
"This is a bone-strengthening pill. My sister got it by chance before. It is said to have miraculous effects on warriors, and it can also be used by qi-refiners to strengthen their muscles and bones and increase their qi and blood. This pill has never had a suitable place to go. Now it happens to be dedicated to the sword, and it can also be used for the sword. The knife adds strength.”
"Dan?"
Bai Lang's heart skipped a beat, but he shied away and said, "You won't be rewarded for your merits. This thing is too valuable. Please ask Manager Zeng to take it back. Bai Lang can't afford it."
The stuff was good stuff, even if it was a category Bai Lang had never heard of, but as long as it was a pill, it was indispensable. It's definitely not something that can be compared with something like a gold film. Even if there is a price, there is absolutely no market.
But how can I give you good things easily?
What's the cost? What's the cost?
So Bai Lang will not touch the jade bottle on the table until he knows what the price is. At the same time, I am also curious, what on earth made Zeng Fei willing to take out such a good thing as pills to clear the way?
Zeng Fei smiled, leaned forward a little, and then said in a lowered voice: "The construction of the industrial park will be accelerated soon. This time it is not just about smelting iron, but also about making iron. This is in line with your initial expectations, Zuodao. The idea of an industrial park. But I thought about it for a long time and found that many details were not clear yet, and there was always a feeling that it was just a step away. So I would like to ask you to give me some advice and give me Zeng Fei a try!"
After saying that, Zeng Fei raised the wine glass in front of him and drank it all in one gulp!
