Chapter 8: Offense and Defense

Develyn. Hallhack. Sindra, like a grim ghost, but with a warm and sweet smile.

She led Jiang Han through the corridor with steady steps and came to a small living room in front of the throne hall, suddenly turned her head again, and said with a humble smile without flattery:

"If I may, can I know what you have to do with the great Lady Irene?"

Absolutely... Well? Jiang Han said with a puzzled expression:

"Erin didn't tell you?"

Develyn shrugged her shoulders with a smile:

"Yes and no, it is clear that the lady has her own set of ideas and has one of the principles to implement her principles and her plans. It's hard to guess what a lady thinks or what she does. This is really difficult for a lowly witch civil servant like us to do her job, and of course, I believe that the lady may have forgotten to tell me, after all, a friend's visit is not something that needs to be told to a subordinate like us. ”

Jiang Han really didn't know if this witch was yin and yang, or if she was speaking sincerely, or giving opinions, or asking.

Thankfully, this alternative 'conversation' didn't last.

Devherine knocked on the door of the throne room and waited quietly.

In a moment, Irene's voice came from inside the door:

"Please come in."

…………

In Xue Nan Lake King's Landing, the throne room looks much warmer than Anjie's, probably because Erin never works here, but uses it as a private residence.

On the sofa above the soft carpet.

Erin was dressed in a simple white robe, with simple pink and white ankle-reaching cotton socks on her legs, and her long silver hair was tied up with a golden band.

She sat on the sofa and said with a sunny smile:

"Jiang Han, sit down, I just asked Amy to make your favorite dessert."

She pointed to the six-tiered dessert tower on the coffee table.

This is really touching for cats! Jiang Han nodded happily and a little shyly, sat down opposite her, and kicked off his little high heels in front of the carpet by the way, and rolled up his big tail.

After she sat down, Develyn, who was standing next to her, smiled softly:

"Then I'll work on some paperwork, and I still have some forms today......"

Erin looked up at her, and her sunny smile was still there:

"No, no, Develyn, please take a seat, what a busy day? It just so happens that I need to ask about the form. ”

"It's my pleasure? Lady. Develyn smiled and sat down.

Erin smiled and pointed to the desserts and fine drinks on the table:

"You're so kind, Delleine, you can just call me Erin...... Why don't you have something to drink and eat? ”

"Thank you for your kindness? But I guess it's better not to do these things during work hours? Lady. Develyn punned, she sat elegantly? The smile is serene, as if it has been trained thousands of times.

Maybe this is exactly what Qin Shunying wants to train me to become...... Jiang Han amuamu eating dessert? Keep your eyes on each other.

"Develyn." Erin laughed? I've noticed that you seem to have accidentally omitted a copy of what should have been given to me in your recent HR financial report with... A few little numbers report. ”

Develyn's smile remained unchanged:

"That's right, ma'am. We found that these reports had some data that did not match our actual investigation, and in principle considered this to be a malfeasance that necessitated a serious investigation. Of course? We also did a second one? With the third redrafting and data investigation, a special team and an investigation team were set up to re-examine and approve the data inconsistencies. ”

"Oh, it's all trivial and tedious, and we're so loyal? Extremely conscientious and highly responsible civil service assistants are naturally reluctant to take up your precious time with such tedious digital activities. ”

It's really sweet...... Jiang Han guessed.

Erin listened patiently? Smile with a sunny face:

"Very good, Devrin. Your loyalty and responsibility make me admire the excellent style of civil servants that have been maintained for hundreds of years. Tradition, true warriors and true strivers. ”

Develyn listened with a smile.

Erin continued:

"But look at you so emaciated by the demands of my job? It makes me feel distressed and blame myself. In fact, I'm thinking? How complex these forms are causing me headaches? Then it's really hard for you to deal with it. So, I'm willing to pay an extra salary, hire three accounting consultants, strictly follow the three-shift eighteen-hour rule, and report these forms to me when I need them...... Heh, will also report for you, so that it can reduce the work of the two of us at the same time, is that a good idea? ”

Jefferine's smile slowly faded.

The next second, she showed a small sigh and said like a coquette:

"Heck, but those numbers aren't that cumbersome...... And I think we have enough people to simplify them. ”

"Really?" Erin asked with a smile.

Develyn smiled sweetly:

"Of course. What a coincidence that I was about to talk about this, we can simplify the numbers and make a clear and concise 'payroll' and 'performance table'... It's just ......"

"Just?" Erin repeated, smiling.

"It's just that I'm worried that the comparison chart between the performance table and the salary scale will hurt the morale of our efficient and light civil servants." Derfrin looked away and hinted with an aggrieved look.

Erin paused for about five or six seconds and smiled:

"Remember what you said about the Merit Operator Bonus?"

"Hmm." Devherine nodded.

Erin says:

"I passed it, and it was officially implemented in three months, and it was distributed according to the performance sheet. At the same time, however, I would like to use the volume and quality of the work in the 'Comprehensive Civil Service Evaluation System Report' that I ordered three months ago as the only two performance criteria. ”

Develyn replied quickly:

"Reports, simplified forms and new drafts of performance standards, as well as the performance and salary schedules you request, will be delivered to your desk within two days. I believe that this will be a reward for the trust that our humble witch civil servants have placed in our ladies. Thank you, I would like to go if I can...... Urge them to do something? ”

"Please." Erin graciously let Develyn out of the office.

Wait until the moment the door closes.

Erin shook her head and looked at Jiang Han:

"When you realize that this bureaucracy has penetrated into every vein, every myeloid fluid, you can't help but rely on the convenience it brings, and you can't rely on the efficiency it brings. The consequence is to keep an eye on them at all times to make sure that the direction of progress remains the same. Especially now that we have entered the age of civilization, it is even more difficult to deal with them. ”

Well, it seems so...... Jiang Han shook his head and grunted, not knowing whether he should get to the point now.

Others have just finished work, and it doesn't seem good to talk about investment......

Just when she was a little embarrassed, Erin was very empathetic and said:

"Speaking of which, you came to me to develop Giant Cat Island, right? It's funny, when I was a child, I used to dream of being a cat lantern, floating in the air without distractions, slowly wandering, watching the sunrise and sunset. But Ovilla said that there is also a small society in the cat lamp, and there are also concerns about where to go tomorrow, and they hit me mercilessly. ”

Meow! Jiang Han didn't feel nervous all of a sudden, but curious, flicking his tail and staring at Erin:

"Well, it's hard to imagine that Ovi would turn away a rich man like you......"

"Ovilla is the hardest witch to buy." Erin covered her mouth and smiled, "It's hard for even her colleagues to see her. The place where Ovilla lived was once called the Great Sanctuary of the Shadows, because she sat on the throne in it. Only who she wants to see will cast the Shadow Cat Lamp, opening a passage in the shadows to attract her target to meet her. And when she doesn't want to see people, she often disappears for up to six to seven days before she comes out to hang around. "Remember the →m.\B\iq\u\g\\o\m for you to read the novel in a second.

Finally, Erin sighed:

"But even so, Ovilla is omniscient, the most unfathomable and most unpredictable witch."

He is worthy of being a spy boss and a secretist ruler.

Jiang Han shook his head and flicked his tail:

"She's good with cats."

"It's also good for the little witch." Erin adds, "There are a few witches who have touched Ovilla's cat ears as a child, and thus have a fairly high degree of luck. ”

"The elusive woman, like the cat." Jiang Han sighed.

Erin nodded slowly:

"That's true, I'll tell you the story of her another day. Now let's talk about the criteria for investment. ”
