"Boss, you're finally back." Wang Meng shouted.

I said in my heart why I was so enthusiastic today, and instructed Wang Meng to make me a cup of tea, so I asked, "The store has been open for the past few days?" ”

"Open." Wang Meng had a bitter face and said, "I can't drive anymore, boss." He hesitated, as if he had something to say to me.

I know Wang Meng's personality too well, two years ago, he would talk to me for a long time about the salary, but then after Pan Zi died, I took over the third uncle's industry, and no one was available for a while, and Wang Meng drove the ducks to the shelves, and went out to run things for me.

"What's the matter, say." I glanced at him and motioned for him not to lose time.

Wang Meng glanced at me cautiously, and finally seemed to have made up his mind, and said, "Boss, this news is not very good, you should be mentally prepared." "I said to myself, what other bad news? I had already listened too much and done too much, so I waved my hand and motioned for Wang Meng to speak.

"It's scattered down there." Wang Meng said a word, and then came to see my face, I took the tea without saying a word, nodded and motioned for him to continue.

Wang Meng continued: "After the second master left, it was not peaceful below, but Uncle Lei was in charge, and there was no big mess, but just six days ago, Uncle Lei was suddenly unable to be contacted. Out of nowhere, the news said...... Say ......"

He hesitated, and at this moment, the stuffy oil bottle dangled down from the upper floor, and he didn't know if he heard anything, and lay down on the rocking chair on the side. I gave Wang Meng a look, Wang Meng changed the topic with interest, and asked, "Boss, Zhao Wang's kid has been unable to get through on the phone, do you want me to stay and help in the past two days?" ”

Listening to him mention Zhao Wang, I feel uncomfortable, this feeling is difficult to describe, you know that a person has left, disappeared from this world, when you hear another person talk about him casually, as if he is still alive, that feeling, people feel very uncomfortable, especially, this person has also formed a thorn in your heart, it is even more uncomfortable.

I nodded and said calmly: "Stay, Zhao Wang has quit his job, and he will not come in the future." ”

"What?" Wang Meng shouted, revealing an expression of a dead son: "Zhao Xiaozi resigned? Boss, I'll just say your salary is too low......" I glared at him, he didn't dare to say anything, glanced at the stuffy oil bottle on the side, and pretended to wipe the vase.

I know what Wang Meng has to say, he said that sentence and scattered below, and I guessed that ** is not far from ten. After the third uncle left, the handicap fell into my hands, there were many unconvinced people below, and there were already a lot of scattered people, and the remaining group of people were all hindered by the second uncle above, all holding a wait-and-see attitude, and later after returning from Kunlun Mountain, the second uncle took over the business and kicked me out, and I didn't pay attention to the handicap.

At that time, Wang Meng was already mixed well, and even said that he was already mixed, and he didn't want to get out, people died for money, birds died for food, and it was human nature to want to make tickets, I later asked Wang Meng if he wanted to continue to work in the handicap, Wang Meng said: "Boss, this is good, I want to do no more effort, my girlfriend is going to break up with me, unless I ......"

"Unless what?"

Wang Meng smiled slyly: "Unless you give me a salary increase." ”

I kicked him directly and said, "Love is up to you." "I didn't care about it later, but Wang Meng followed the second uncle later, and he would get a lot of timely news, and sometimes when he came to see me, he would tell me about the situation.

It is said that after the second uncle took over the handicap, he didn't know what to do, but Wang Meng said that it was like a change in the sky.

Although those people were mixed under me before, most of them had a contemptuous attitude, even at the year-end audit party, a group of people sat crookedly, and even someone crossed their legs in front of me.

The second uncle checked the accounts for the first time after taking over, probably to see my face, so he also took Wang Meng with him. At that time, it was said that the gang was as well-behaved as their grandson. The second uncle is not as ruthless as the third uncle, people look like a hero, the second uncle didn't even say a word of weight that day, he was kind and pleasant, and when he spoke to the people below, he was as kind as talking to his grandson.

It stands to reason that those people are all licking blood from the knife edge, and the second uncle's gentlemanly attitude must be uncontrollable, but the strange thing is here, because that day, no one dared to do more, and when they went out, they bowed one by one, Wang Meng said, that is really called air pressure.

I know that the second uncle will definitely not do nothing as Wang Meng said. The second uncle has lived in seclusion for many years, and even if he opened a small teahouse, he was taught to others to deal with it.

A man, never looking for a woman in his life, not doing a career, no matter how I think about it, I think it's impossible, the only explanation can only show that the second uncle's power is ambushed in a place that we can't see, he has been in obscurity for decades, and he has not shown the slightest mountain dew, so the accumulated power must be extremely terrifying.

To be able to make the people under the third uncle's handicap behave in one day, this is not something that can be done with aura, a person's aura does not lie in himself, but in everything he has.

Now that the second uncle has been gone for more than a month, the things under his hands have been taught to Lao Lei, these people were afraid of the second uncle's residual power at first and did not dare to be presumptuous, but they are not good at stubble, the handicap has changed hands several times, first I took over, then the second uncle, and later even taught an outsider to take care of it, anyone with a discerning eye can see that there is a problem within the Wu family, how can they let go of this opportunity?

I had already expected this situation, if the second uncle didn't leave, maybe the third uncle's handicap could be integrated or even expanded, but as soon as the second uncle disappeared, it was a matter of time before the shelves fell apart.

It's just that I feel very concerned about Lao Lei's disappearance, first, because he is the descendant of the black-backed sixth uncle, second, because he has a good relationship with the second uncle, and third, he is not a simple person.

According to my understanding of Lao Lei, although he is not as loyal to the second uncle as Pan Zi is to the third uncle, they must be tied together because of something. There is only one possibility for such a person to suddenly disappear and give up the task taught to him by the second uncle, that is, the thing that made him disappear is more important than the task given to him by the second uncle.

What could it be?

Wang Meng was hindered by the presence of the stuffy oil bottle, so he changed the topic, but I knew that he hadn't finished speaking, so I subconsciously went to look at the stuffy oil bottle, but found that the stuffy oil bottle was also looking at me, and my indifferent eyes revealed a sharpness, and I subconsciously felt empty.

Then, the stuffy oil bottle pointed at Wang Meng and said lightly: "Go on." Wang Meng was stunned, looked at me, and cautiously asked the stuffy oil bottle: "What did you say?" The smouldering oil bottle's faint gaze gradually became sharper, I knew that the stuffy oil bottle probably heard something just now, he walked like a cat, and his ear power was extraordinary, and he couldn't hide it if he wanted to, so he nodded at Wang Meng and said, "If you see Zhang Ye and see me, don't hide it, continue to speak." ”

Wang Meng had a bitter face and said, "Zhang Ye is much better than you." I choked and said in my heart, of course I will serve him, as long as I remember to feed him, I don't have to worry about anything.

After Wang Meng complained, he lowered his voice and said: "Boss, since Uncle Lei disappeared, a rumor has spread out of nowhere, saying that Uncle Lei sandwiched a fat bucket by himself, but he couldn't bear it and folded it inside, and said that he ...... The Wu family's anger is exhausted. ”

I held back the anger in my heart, and I felt the urge to beat someone. These handicaps are what the third uncle left me, although I have no ability, but in the past two years, I have also tried my best to maintain, the third uncle has been for most of his life, no children and no daughters, except for a few women who warm the bed, probably not even a confidant, the family business he saved all his life was left to me at the end, even if I don't like this line anymore, I will not let it fend for itself.

Even if it's not the third uncle, when I think of Panzi, I can't sit idly by, Panzi must know that I have lost most of the third uncle's industry, and it is estimated that I will not be able to live peacefully when I die.

Wang Meng probably saw that my face was not good, so he comforted me and said: "Boss, I pondered later, these news should be deliberately released by someone to disturb people's hearts, and want to take advantage of the opportunity to gain power, not to mention that there is a second master above, boss, you are wise and wise, where is the turn to get those little bastards to come out and jump." ”

I was furious, and I was lost by Wang Meng, and I couldn't help but say: "The sycophants are slippery enough, so I learned these things?" ”

"Where can I be, boss, I don't shoot ordinary people, I'll tell you about it, but as soon as the second master leaves, Uncle Lei will disappear with him, if you don't come forward again, those people really think that the Wu family has collapsed, and the time will ......."

I estimate that as soon as Lao Lei left, Wang Meng's life was not easy, and I also knew his bitter gourd face, so he waved his hand, thought about it, and said, "How many people do you have?" ”

Wang Meng was stunned for a moment, fished his head embarrassedly, and said: "Thirteen, all of them are stunned, boss, don't laugh at me, you didn't tell me two years ago, people are raised slowly." ”

I said: "It's okay to be stunned, go and carry the letter, just say that at the end of the year, Wu Sanye wants to check the accounts." ”

Wang Meng swallowed his saliva and said, "Then what if they ......" I didn't say anything, and said in a deep voice: "Go and do it." Wang Meng nodded, made a gesture to wrap himself around me, and then packed up his things and left.

When he left, the shop still had to be opened, I left the door open, ordered a takeout by the way, and ate with the stuffy oil bottle, thinking about the second uncle's affairs while eating, counting the days, there are about thirteen days left.

The stuffy oil bottle suddenly said, "What are you going to do?" ”

Could it be that the stuffy oil bottle took the initiative to speak, I naturally couldn't help but give face, but after all, this is an internal matter of the Wu family, it is very dirty, originally I didn't want the stuffy oil bottle to know, but with the last experience, I also let go, this matter, if it is really hidden, but I am not righteous, I told the truth to the stuffy oil bottle, and said: "Little brother, I really didn't think of what to do." Let's be honest...... I don't know what the second uncle did, but this is what the third uncle left me, and I have to guard it for him, even if I am going to lose, it will not be when I am still alive. ”

The stuffy oil bottle looked at me thoughtfully, in fact, I wanted to remind him that there was rice on the corner of his mouth, but after thinking about it, for the sake of the health of his neck, he still pretended not to see it.

I don't know what the stuffy oil bottle is thinking, but this matter, you can't take advantage of personal heroism, he is really powerful in the fight, but in the intricate relationship of the handicap, force is needed, but force cannot solve all problems, unless all disobedient people are wiped out, but obviously, this is impossible, even if the stuffy oil bottle has the ability to do it, it is impossible.

We didn't continue the conversation, and opened the shop quietly for a day, during which I called Xiaohua: "The people under my hand lend me some." ”

On the other end of the phone, Xiaohua's voice was not the slightest surprise, as if he had expected it, he asked, "You still want to take care of your third uncle's affairs?" ”

"That's my business, too." After a pause, I smiled bitterly: "Xiaohua, I have given up everything that should be given up, but some things are people's bottom line, and I can't give up." "No matter how great the pain is, there will always be a time to pass; No matter how heavy the curiosity is, there will always be a time when it will be polished; There will always be a bottom line in people's hearts, this line will slowly retreat under the impact of reality, and you will gradually give in because of reality, but it does not mean that this line will disappear because of concessions, it will retreat until there is no way to retreat.

But this bottom line will never go away.

Since the first fight, to now, if I still have something stubbornly insisted on, I'm afraid this is the only thing left, I can not pursue those mysteries, and leave that fog behind, but there are some things that can never be reversed.
