Chapter 19: It's OK as long as you don't cross his bottom line
After a while, Chen Liang came back with a few buns in his hand and a side dish.
Wang Yaren teased: "Did you pick up some silver? Are you planning to live like this? You are so willing to give it up!"
"Brother Wang, you've finally come here, so I'll make sure you have a good meal, right?"
After talking and washing their hands, the three of them had a very pleasant dinner.
After dinner, Chen Liang asked, "Brother Wang, do you have something to talk to me about?"
Wang Yaren took out dozens of copper coins and put them on the table: "Huzi, go and buy some wine for the brothers. The rest of the money will be used to buy you delicious food! Your brother Wang will treat us today."
Hu Zi looked at his brother and saw him nod. Then he took the silver and the jar of wine and ran away.
Chen Liang knew that Brother Wang had something important to say and Hu Zi was not convenient to be present.
Wait until Huzi goes out.
Wang Yaren came close to Chen Liang and asked quietly, "Tell me the truth, kid. Who is the young master of today's host? What's his background?"
It’s just as I guessed, right? Brother Wang also thinks that the young boss is amazing?
Chen Liang thought for a moment and said, "I don't know the details, I just know that the young boss is very capable and a good person, very open-minded and not pretentious.
It is a great pleasure to work for him. You have also seen today that he is very generous with money. "
"Just play dumb with me, you kid. Giving money is fair and square, but don't you think this boss is a little scary?
He is so young, but he speaks and acts so maturely, not like a child. Don't you feel pressured when facing him?"
I have seen the world and have dealt with many different kinds of people.
But this is the first time that someone like Mr. Shen does not play by the rules.
"No, I think he's a nice guy. He doesn't look down on people. He always takes me with him when he eats, and he trusts me a lot when it comes to money.
He not only paid me but also trusted me, what else could I ask for? Apart from this boss, where else could I find someone so easy to talk to?
To be honest, I didn't think too much about it. I just thought, listen to him, do his job, and hope he can continue to use me. "
Wang Yaren was anxious: "That's not what I meant. I didn't say he was not generous with money, nor did I say he was not open-minded.
I mean, don't you think he's a little scary? Why don't you understand what I mean?"
The host was dressed in ordinary clothes, but his behavior was indescribably strange.
The most important thing is that they seem to ignore the law. It is easy to talk about rules and laws, but it is difficult to deal with this if you don't talk about them!
The people I come into contact with are all obedient, honest, and good citizens who pay taxes according to the law.
Unlike this person, he talks about killing people all the time. People who listen to him feel scared and have no idea what to do.
He is just an honest worker who wants to earn some hard-earned money. He can't risk his life for it. It's not worth it.
So, you must find out clearly.
Chen Liang was also confused by Wang Yaren, "Why is the young master so scary? What do you think?"
Wang Ya people really have no other choice but to give up on themselves.
“To tell you the truth, when you went out to pick someone up today, I chatted with this boss for a while. He asked me to continue to help him find a yard and also asked me to keep an eye on the fields and various talents.
Finally, he said that if I hide anything from him or fool him in the future, once he finds out, he will either let me die quietly or make me live a life worse than death.
Listen to me, isn’t this scary? Is this something a normal child would say? "
"I think it's okay. As long as we do our job conscientiously and don't fool him, we'll be fine."
"You still don't understand what I mean. What I mean is, don't you think such an owner is a little scary? And he's so young.
The point is, I can clearly feel that he can really kill people silently, don't you think it's scary?"
"Brother Wang, I understand what you want to say, but the question is, why do you have to be so entangled in his age?
It doesn't matter whether he is old or young, as long as he is a good person and keeps his word. No matter how young he is, he is still the boss.
Your feeling is right, he really has the ability to make people die quietly. But even so, so what?
As long as we don't cross his bottom line, we'll be fine. I can feel that he is a very reasonable person who can distinguish between gratitude and resentment. "
"You're right. If you forget his age, it's okay. I can accept it. But I think he's a little young! A little too experienced."
It makes sense to think so.
As long as you don't cross the other party's bottom line, you can be safe and keep your head.
"Brother Wang, we have been brothers for many years, so I will say a few more words. From now on, whenever the young master asks you to do something, don't think too much or ask too many questions. If you can do it, just accept it, and if you can't do it, tell us clearly.
Don't hide anything, and don't lie. He is the one who can see your hard work, and you will benefit from it regardless of whether the thing succeeds or not.
Last but not least, if anyone asks about Xiao Dongjia, remember to keep your mouth shut. Xiao Dongjia may be small, but he is not someone you and I can afford to offend."
Wang Yaren made a gesture to seal his mouth: "I understand, I understand. Thank you for your advice, Xiao Liangzi. I will listen to you and not think too much or ask too many questions. I will just do my job honestly."
Wang Yaren’s worries were gone, and thinking it was time to go home, he stood up and said goodbye.
After getting up, he took out five taels of silver and put them on the table: "Thank you for introducing me to this great business today!"
Chen Liang pushed the money back and said, "Brother, there's no need to do this. You've been taking care of us brothers unilaterally for the past few years. I finally have a chance to repay you. How can you ask for compensation?"
"Are you stupid? Brotherhood is brotherhood, and money is money. They are two different things. Besides, you saw today that I, your brother, earned more money in one day than I usually do in a year.
Consider this money as my brother's happiness, sharing it with you, you must accept it. Also, I will only give it once, I won't give it next time."
Having said that, Chen Liang had no choice but to accept it.
"It's time to prepare winter clothes for you and Huzi. You've been using the same quilt for years, so it's time to change it. Also, buy some cheap charcoal so Huzi can keep warm when he gets cold."
Chen Liang replied: "That's what I'm planning. Once Hu Zi is settled, I will work for the young master in a down-to-earth manner."
After sending Wang Yaren away, Chen Liang went to the street to look for Hu Zi. After finding Hu Zi, he gave him some instructions and walked towards his uncle Yang's house.
He now feels more and more that the distribution map is capable of doing something. The people in Yang Shangshu's mansion are so bad that they are almost infuriating to the point of being hated by both humans and gods.
No matter whether the young master uses it for himself or gives it to others, if he can bring misfortune to Yang Shangshu's mansion, he will be very happy just from the bottom of his heart.
He wanted to get Uncle Yang to work on the distribution map together. Not only was Uncle Yang a righteous man, but he also had a wide network of contacts, from all walks of life, and there was everyone he knew.
If this thing succeeds, Uncle Yang can also make some money and repay the favor at the same time.
If it doesn't work, given Uncle Yang's character, he won't let this matter out.
What's more, with Uncle Yang's knowledge, experience and ability, this might just be a trivial matter.
Even if Uncle Yang finally feels that this thing cannot be done, at least he can analyze it one by one.
It would be better for me to give up. After all, I have to give the boss a reply tomorrow.
By the way, find suitable people to assign other small tasks assigned by the boss.
