Chapter 56 Drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle

Both men in the room were taken aback.

Qi Xiong's eyes flickered, and he was shocked, and suddenly seven or eight thoughts turned in his heart, and he didn't know what posture to put on for a while.

The word cronies cannot be misrecognized, and the words and deeds of subordinates will be regarded as the will of the superiors, of course, whether they should be held responsible is another matter.

Among the many low-level stewards of Tiangong Kaiwu, Meng Erya is not conspicuous, and he is not the core figure of that faction, not even the periphery, otherwise he would not have been sent a thankless job that day.

Find someone who is irrelevant and will not affect a few big stewards, and go to the mansion master to do something that is not very kind, if Manager Xia asks about it in the future, it will also seem to be official and not so targeted. This method can be described as skillful by several chief stewards. And if something goes wrong halfway like this, the pawn should be resolutely abandoned, so as not to theorize in the future and be manipulated.

Qi Xiong came to Meng Erya at this time, not to hear the news, let alone to win him over.

On the day of the Dongtun Town incident, Qi Xiong, Hu Donglai, and another chief steward who participated in the incident had already recruited Meng Erya, and after repeated and detailed inquiries about the matter, they confirmed the news they learned from their own arrival in Dongtun later, and did not catch Meng Erya's feet.

This afternoon, the craftsman's mansion has a meeting, and the scale of this regular meeting is larger than usual, because of the treasure fair that will be held soon, some of the perennial foreign officials are slightly lower in rank than the chief stewards, but the expatriate stewards who are in charge of each side outside Yujing will come to the main mansion to participate. Therefore, even if the Dongtun Town incident fails, it can still be taken out to add a block to Yan Kaiting!

Qi Xiong came to Meng Erya to make the best use of everything, and informed him to report on the process of Fang Nanen's craftsman's mansion at the meeting, as for how to say it, it is also simple, and the words that lead to a false conclusion by telling the truth are not unfamiliar to businessmen.

Originally, this was meant for those who would believe.

And whether Meng Erya will give in is not within the scope of Qi Xiong's consideration. One report is his duty, even if Xia Pingsheng is present, he can't say anything wrong, and the other is that Qi Xiong is an old steward, but he didn't leave a handle, so that everything Meng Erya said is the truth, but when the time comes, when he is interjected by several chief stewards, he doesn't know what it means to listen to others' ears.

As for the two of them talking very happily, so that when Yan Kaiting arrogantly broke into the door, he happened to listen to the words of a matchmaker and other things that seemed to be intimate, it was purely the work of Meng Erya's eloquence.

Qi Xiong is experienced, so naturally he will not be moved by a few words, not to mention that Meng Erya is already half an outcast. If Yan was angry in court afterwards, Qi Xiong and they would not be able to protect him. However, when it is time to employ people, it is better to be happy from top to bottom than to get it to the point of coercion.

At this point, Qi Xiong felt that Meng Erya was quite upright. I didn't see it in the past, this young and inconspicuous young man spoke very well, but unfortunately he couldn't use it for his own use. Introducing Meng Erya to a hard-working housekeeper is like this.

Just such a sentence, the words of the scene that the speaker is not true and the listener may not believe it, fell into Yan Kaiting's ears.

It's a long story, but in fact, it is just a step for Yan Kaiting to cross the threshold, and Qi Xiong has already made up his mind.

Qi Xiong adjusted his facial expression, and said without humility or arrogance: "Morning Mansion Master, I am not here for the regular meeting in the afternoon, come over and tell Xiao Meng a few words." Xiao Meng is about the same age as the kid in my family, when the child is young, he is worried about growing up, and when the child grows up, he is worried about feeding. Speaking of this, Qi Xiong paused, shook his head and smiled decently, "Why don't you just pull up the family routine." You've got something to do, you're busy first!" he said and left like that.

Yan Kaiting said: "What is the regular meeting of the craftsman's mansion, I still have an envoy here to tell him to do it!" ”

Yan Kaiting's tone was extremely reasonable, and he did not explain the cause and effect.

It's hard for Qi Xiong to be used to his unreasonable behavior recently, his cheeks twitched, and he didn't ask the reason for the postponement of the meeting, and after a little thought, he said categorically: "Of course, the matter of the mansion master is important, Xiao Meng will listen to the mansion master's dispatch, and I will arrange someone else to do the things at the meeting." ”

Meng Erya's expression was confused on the side, and she responded: "But the big manager of Qi, can you still report the affairs of Dongtun Town?"

Qi Xiong was too late to interrupt him at the moment, and he couldn't blame Meng Erya, who shouldn't know the inside story, for asking so much, holding his expression and saying solemnly: "The final handover with the Dongtun branch is handled by the Hu manager, and there is no problem with him." ”

Speaking of this, Qi Xiong didn't wait for Meng Erya to ask again, such as how to report the negotiation process in the early stage, and so on, he glanced at Meng Erya, and regardless of the latter's more confused expression, he arched his hand at Yan Kaiting and left in a hurry.

After Qi Xiong's figure completely disappeared into the corner of the row house, Yan Kaiting suddenly burst out laughing, turned his head to look at Meng Erya and said, "What kind of look does this old man make at you?"

Meng Erya put away her confused expression and said honestly: "I guess I want to tell the villain that I can't tell you all the content of the conversation with him." It's also possible, whether it's useful or not, let Yan Ye make you suspicious and think I'm his person?"

Yan Kaiting looked at Meng Erya up and down, and said with a smile: "It's a pity that Qi Xiong doesn't know, I want to take you as a use, it's useless to introduce the little lady, and introducing a little Langjun is the right way." ”

Meng Erya's face turned red, but she was still generous, and said, "Master Yan, don't laugh." Saying that, she was also a little puzzled, "You already know that the chief stewards are going to take advantage of the cause of Dongtun Town to make some waves at the afternoon meeting?"

Yan Kaiting's salary draw was really well spent, and Qi Xiong obviously realized something, and without struggling, he directly gave up the plan to use Meng Erya's report to lead to the incident.
