Chapter 80: You're Different
Seeing that He Manzhou lowered his gaze slightly, with a hidden shyness in his eyes, his cheeks were even more faintly red. Such a look was not very real in the dark ancient temple, it was just like an illusion on the line of sight.
"Why don't you speak?"
He Manzhou said in his heart, how do you let me speak, I want to speak, but I promise this kind of words, can a normal human being accept it? In this situation, whether I am happy to nod in agreement, or shake my head bitterly and refuse, it seems very different.
And Ah Boss Bai, can you be a little conscious of the initiator. It's okay to bully people, and it's okay to deliberately use words to squeeze people, but I don't understand it until the point is reached.
At this time, there is still leisure to ask me why I don't speak, I suspect that you did it on purpose, and the evidence is conclusive.
It turns out that He Manzhou's sixth sense in this regard is quite keen. Bai Yicong's question didn't expect to get any answer, he just said it to shame her, so before the girl could speak, the corners of his lips hooked slightly, his gaze swept over her reddened cheeks, and he continued.
"If you can't pay it off, just come to Baiyulou to report, and give you a salary according to the market situation, which is only a lot higher, the salary is paid monthly, and the items sold are given a 5% commission, and the work is repaid, how about it?"
"What do you mean?" He Manzhou was stunned.
"What, too little?" Bai Yicong raised his eyebrows and said unhurriedly, "Not to mention the standard salary, just five percent commission is already the highest price given in the antique industry, and you also open a museum, you should know that I don't need to lie to you in this matter, let alone lose you, so you are not satisfied?"
"No......" He Manzhou felt that he was a little misled by Bai Yicong, and for a while he couldn't tell where he started to deviate, and his quick reaction and sharp teeth became useless at this time, and he was completely killed by the opposite party.
Her lips touched up and down, trying to sort out the confusion from the mud in her head, but the restart of the thinking and analysis system failed, and there was even a tendency to strike directly.
After a long time, she finally squeezed a sentence out of her teeth: "That's not what I'm talking about." ”
"What is that, you feel that you are not competent?" Bai Yicong was very calm about this, nodded kindly, and followed He Manzhou's words, "Don't worry, whether it is eloquence or work experience, you are qualified enough for this job, as long as you take out one-third of your strength to tell me witticisms, you will be a well-deserved sales champion of Bai Yulou." ”
He Manzhou: "......."
Listening to Boss Bai's serious analysis, He Manzhou was completely stunned.
Are you praising me or scolding me, why does every word of this sentence sound like a good word, but when it is connected together, it is like burying a person, and she is uncomfortable when she hears it, no matter how she thinks about it, it is not like that. And whether Bai Yicong is burying people or not, this is not the point, the point is how to chat and suddenly come here.
Didn't I just talk about those embarrassing things, but suddenly the words suddenly changed sharply, what did it mean? What's going on, I obviously didn't fall asleep or wander, why couldn't I keep up with Boss Bai's rhythm all of a sudden.
He Manzhou looked at Bai Yicong directly, as if she wanted to find out what he meant from the details, but in the face of the iceberg face that didn't give people a chance at all, she quickly gave up the overly difficult challenge and opened her mouth bluntly.
"No, why do I have to work for you, why?"
"Are you questioning this, you didn't refute it just now, I thought it was a tacit meaning. ”
"What did I acquiesce into, even if I acquiesced, it can't be a default job for you, when I'm a jobless vagrant wandering around the street all day long, I'm not without serious things to do, don't you want the Tianwentang Museum?" He Manzhou didn't think about it, so he pulled it up angrily, "Besides, isn't the reason why I was silent just now because you have to say all that nonsense, something...... Do you make a promise or something?"
"Make a promise to work to pay off your debts," Bai Yicong raised his eyebrows slightly, "Is this a mess?"
"Wait, are you talking about this personal promise?" He Manzhou blinked, feeling a little speechless, and such a brain circuit seemed to be inexplicably in line with Bai Yicong's straight man thinking, and he didn't feel anything wrong for a while, but he just had a sense of surprise that "worthy of him", and sighed sincerely.
"I thought it was ......?"
Halfway through the words, He Manzhou stopped speaking, but Bai Yi's smile from the corner of his lips became more obvious.
"Otherwise, what do you think you mean?"
"I didn't ...... Without. He Manzhou was afraid of being punctured, so he quickly shook his head, "You just heard it wrong, I didn't say I thought it was, I didn't think anything about it, I really don't think you're overbearing at all, just what you think is enough." ”
"Don't say that, you understand it as something else, you can say it, I'm not an unreasonable person. Bai Yicong stretched the tail note a little, and those cold eyes met the girl's twinkling eyes, and added unhurriedly, "Xiaozhou, what do you want to promise by yourself?"
This time, He Manzhou didn't even dare to blink her eyes, she directly lowered her head to avoid her gaze, and she was completely speechless.
The silence continued to spread, and her heart was filled with countless wails and sighs, especially wanting to talk to Bai Yicong about something. But those words were really embarrassing and embarrassing, and finally turned between their lips and tongue, and they were swallowed back by reason.
In the silent procedure, He Manzhou's eyes couldn't help but glance at Bai Yicong's body, and met the eyes that were rarely a little ridiculous, and her sense of grievance rose by geometric multiples, almost reaching a critical value.
And it was only at this time that He Manzhou realized in hindsight that whether it was a personal promise or a coolie worker, he and Bai Yi had pulled it out from the account of the hollow pocket watch, but what did this matter have to do with her in essence?
It's not her responsibility to go around in such a big circle, she promises a fart?
After thinking about this, Miss He became even more aggrieved.
Looking at the girl's beautiful lips pursing lightly, she looked like she dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, and Bai Yicong's smile was very obvious.
It seems that only in front of He Manzhou, there will be a slight difference in his usual cold expression. However, Bai Yicong knew the truth very well, so after teasing a few words, he quickly closed the topic, so the jokes that played ambiguous side balls just now came to an end.
In the end, these are some hints from Boss Bai, or He Manzhou can't restrain the pink bubbles in his head, so he makes up those superfluous things from between the lines of others, so that in the end, he wants to be shy, which has become an unknown secret.
"The flashlight shines over here. ”
As Bai Yicong's words fell, He Manzhou hurriedly turned the flashlight and shone it in the direction he was heading.
With the dull yellow light, Bai Yicong picked up the fragments on the ground.
"Whew...... Clue. ”
He Manzhou looked at the broken pocket watch, and then at Bai Yicong, stunned that he didn't have a clue, the look in his eyes, a little bit, don't you play dumb riddles with me? I have been teased back and forth several times, I am about to go offline with my normal thinking ability, where will you guess I guess everyone, please have something to say.
Silly is really cute, and cute is really cute.
Bai Yicong expected the girl's confusion, so he didn't continue to sell Guanzi, and explained unhurriedly.
"I said earlier that the internal situation of the Bai family is complicated, and the true purpose of this trip to Wucheng is inconvenient for the other three veins of the Bai family to know. The auction is also a smoke bomb that makes the itinerary seem legitimate, in order to confuse them and buy more time for the investigation. As for the pocket watch, did I tell you at the time that it had another purpose, and you will know sooner or later. ”
"Yes, I remember. He Manzhou muttered quietly, thinking that the conversation just now was still a little angry, and couldn't help but squeeze a sentence, "I don't remember what you said, just now you praised me for my strong work ability and good performance, so I'll be stupid at this time?"
"I know you have a good memory, so don't ask for praise for a while, and slowly praise you in the future, good. ”
Bai Yicong nodded, reassured without changing his face, and continued.
"At that time, it was taken in your name, I considered it, Bai Mu was thoughtful, if I came forward in person, I think he would have investigated why I got this pocket watch, but it involved the things behind it. But if you do this, you are doing the opposite, so that he can't see through the reality behind it. The more Bai Mu tried to calculate me and take you as my handle, the more he felt that this matter was incomprehensible and couldn't figure out our true intentions. ”
"So at that time, you said that there was another purpose, did you mean to open the treasure of the Relic King?"
"Yes, there are some problems within the Bai family, and the other three veins of the Bai family have discovered the secret of the treasure of the relict king for some reason, especially my second uncle Bai Mu. It's not convenient to go into details, and I'm investigating. But no matter what, we can't let this thing fall into their hands, I told you about the things behind the treasure of the Relic King, and you should know what is at stake. The affairs of the ancient kingdom of Loulan are absolutely taboo, and the more people who know about it, the worse the situation will be. ”
Bai Yicong's tone was very flat, but it was precisely because it was extremely plain that he seemed a little cautious. Since they met, Bai Yixian has rarely faced problems with such a serious attitude, as if nothing he encountered was enough to make him frown, which was enough to see how tricky the problem was this time.
It stands to reason that He Manzhou, who is half of the party, should be very panicked, after all, she and Bai Yicong are in the same boat, and Bai Yicong is in trouble, whether it has a direct impact on her is another matter, but it is not a good thing anyway. However, He Manzhou's brain circuit was very peculiar, she thought about Bai Yicong's words for a while, and the focus was completely offset.
"Taboo also tell me, bring me to Zhaohui Mountain today, do you trust me very much?"
"I don't mind telling you these things, but I can't let Bai Mu know. Bai Yi glanced lightly from He Manzhou's body, and added a little seriously, "You are different from them." ”
It couldn't be simpler, but it made He Manzhou's heart suddenly warm.
