At this time, Wang Wu, who was hiding in the next room, also came out, and when he entered the house, he bowed to Shen Yingniang.

"Shopkeeper Shen, what do you mean by those words just now?"

Shen Yingniang said with a smile: "Didn't you hear that? Naturally, it is to find out the information, know yourself and know the enemy, in order to survive a hundred battles, do you know the prefect of Fengyan Mansion City? ”

Wang Wu shook his head, but nodded again.

"What do you mean?" Shen Yingniang asked, then sat back, and beckoned Wang Wu to sit down as well.

Wang Wu sat down and explained.

"I know yes, but I'm not very familiar with it, but does Shopkeeper Shen really believe the Wu family's words? What do subordinates think, how do they think she is talking nonsense, she should be pulling the banner and pulling the tiger's skin. ”

"Her family is just the village chief of the village, how can she know Wupinguan? I don't think so, Shopkeeper Shen just said that, aren't you really afraid? Do you really want to let that Wu do the position of steward? It's not going to work. ”

Shen Yingniang was helpless: "Look at you, why can't you understand people's words?" Didn't I say it, I'm looking for news, besides, when did you see me break my word? ”

"Actually, what I just said, I also said it to you, you have heard everything Wu said, then start preparing to deal with it."

Wang Wuyi was stunned, and then his head flashed, and he finally understood Shen Yingniang's intentions, and he said in surprise.

"What does Shopkeeper Shen mean that you don't interfere in this matter, let me come?"

Shen Yingniang raised her eyebrows and smiled.

"Of course, since the matter of the hot pot base has been handed over to you now, it is naturally up to you, and I think this matter should not be difficult for you."

"Although a civil official and a military general, they are all doing things for the imperial court, you always know better than me about this officialdom, and it is better for you to accept it than if I do it recklessly?"

Wang Wu smiled and said.

"Shopkeeper Shen, you say so, but you can promote me, although I am a military general, but I have been fighting with the general on the battlefield all the year round, on the battlefield, it is all real swords and real guns, the twists and turns of this officialdom, I really don't understand."

Shen Yingniang shook her head: "What you said is true, but you and the prefect have their own advantages and disadvantages, he will be twists and turns in the officialdom, but without your iron-blooded means, this may be a good learning opportunity for you." ”

"The sword light in the officialdom is also worth learning, I don't think it will be difficult for you, lead the troops to fight, you will follow the art of war, but the form is different, everything will not deviate from its origin, you can."

Shen Yingniang didn't intend to care at all, and began to encourage Wang Wu.

Wang Wu also saw that Shopkeeper Shen was planning to catch the ducks on the shelves, and his mood was a little complicated for a while, and he didn't know whether to be happy or helpless.

Shen Yingniang ignored it and continued.

"It just so happens that I have to leave for a while, if you want to take over this burden, then you have to prove yourself, you don't prove it to me, you prove it to those people under your control."

"Otherwise, why should a person with little experience be in charge of hot pot base matters? If you want to control your subordinates, you have to convince them first, and the first step to convince them is to prove your own ability first, is it the same as when you led troops to fight on the frontier? ”

Wang Wu couldn't refute this, because it was indeed like what Shopkeeper Shen said, he had to be convincing before he could establish his prestige.

Shen Yingniang saw that Wang Wu was deep in thought and did not refute, so she continued.

"Since you understand, then I won't say more, this prefect is your touchstone, if you can rely on your own ability, whether it is brain or martial arts, as long as you can defeat the other party and prove your strength, then the small owner of the hot pot base workshop will give it to you."

As soon as these words came out, Wang Wu's face changed slightly: "Shopkeeper Shen, what does this mean?" The subordinates didn't understand. ”

Shen Yingniang smiled and said: "I mean, I can't let you work in vain, if you really have the ability to win this prefect, it means that you are indeed my right-hand man, and give you a part of the dividends of the hot pot base workshop, which is the reward you deserve, so let's give you two percent." ”

Wang Wu stood up in surprise, first excited, and then refused: "No, how can I ask for Madame's things?" This is your inheritance, ma'am, and your subordinates are really ......."

"Alright."

Shen Yingniang opened her mouth to interrupt Wang Wu's words, and raised her eyebrows.

"Didn't I say that? This is a reward for you, if you just give you some silver land, I don't think it is enough to express the recognition of your ability, and directly give you a dividend of 20%, which is the reward. ”

"I can also let those people in your management see, follow me, you won't suffer, if they can do things for me wholeheartedly, then why don't you worry about the hot pot base workshop, why don't you worry, why don't you worry about not making money?"

Shen Yingniang hooked her lips and smiled slyly.

"Spend a little money, you can mobilize the enthusiasm of the people under your hands, and you don't lose money, I have to learn this trick, after all, if I'm not there, you have to let the people under your hands be willing to work hard for you, not only to talk about the rules, but also to give enough sweetness."

"You should treat these two dividends as a sweetness for you, if you really deserve it, then help me manage the hot pot base workshop, then I have nothing to say, and in the end I can only say one sentence, you deserve it!"

Shen Yingniang persuaded her like this, and Wang Wu refused again, which seemed a little hypocritical, but at this moment, her heart was really full of fighting spirit.

He has been managing the hot pot base workshop for so long, and he knows the daily flow of the hot pot base workshop, if the shopkeeper Shen is really willing to give him a 20% dividend, it is really much more generous than giving him any land and silver.

Moreover, the hot pot base workshop is getting bigger and stronger, so the money he gets from dividends will be more and more.

Thinking about it like this, Wang Wu's breathing couldn't help but be a little tight, he looked at Shen Yingniang's eyes even more grateful, and said respectfully.

"Shopkeeper Shen, don't worry, I will definitely do a good job, I'll go down and make arrangements!"

Shen Yingniang waved her hand, and Wang Wu turned around and went out.

Shen Yingniang was not idle, walked to a shelf next to her, took out a map, and spread it out on the table.

She has to plan her next trip, after all, there is still some time before departure, her itinerary can be constantly changing, everything has to be according to the plan.

……

The capital, the gate of the General's Palace.

Huang Ying'er was standing at the gate at this time, and not far away, there was a carriage that brought her and the servants she brought, which was indeed quite pompous.

Huang Ying'er's walking posture also deliberately held her head high, but she took a woman's small broken steps, which looked particularly awkward anyway.

After a while, the housekeeper came out, and when he saw Huang Ying'er still waiting here, a trace of impatience flashed in his eyes, but the good upbringing of the big family made him restrain all his emotions, and walked up to Huang Ying'er gently but detachedly and said.

"I'm sorry, this girl, my general said, no one will see you, you better go back."

Huang Ying'er was stunned at first, although she had expected this result a long time ago, she was still a little unwilling, so she continued to beg.

"You just let me in, if Brother Yue sees me, he will definitely be happy, I am his old acquaintance, I have a good relationship with the general, you let me in, just say a few words when you meet, you don't have to do the rest, you just need to take me in."

Huang Ying'er kept repeating, but there was no reverence for the housekeeper in her words, and as she spoke, she suddenly took out five taels of silver from her sleeve and prepared to forcibly stuff it into the butler's hand.

This is a bribe prepared to be openly!

When the housekeeper saw Huang Ying'er's style, he only felt physically and mentally exhausted to deal with it, so he directly pushed the silver back, and his voice became cold.

"I'm sorry, this girl, our general's mansion won't accept other people's money at will, you better leave quickly, the general said, no one is seen, and the general didn't say that he knows you, if you rely here again, I'm afraid it's not good, let's leave quickly."

The smile on Huang Ying'er's face was almost unbearable.

How much effort she has made in order to go out, and it took a lot of effort to dress up today, but Yue Lingjun didn't even want to see her face, so how could she show off in front of Yue Lingjun, and how could she make Yue Lingjun change her opinion of her?

And the most important thing is that if she can't complete the task, after she goes back, she will inevitably be ridiculed, maybe her status is not as good as before, and after she goes back, there will definitely be countless people watching her jokes.

But as long as she can enter this door today, as long as she can enter and go back to Pingbo Houfu, she will not be looked down upon.

Thinking about these clearly, Huang Ying'er had a little determination, she took advantage of the housekeeper's inattention, bypassed directly, and was about to go to the threshold, without forgetting to shout.

"Brother Yue Lingjun! I'm Huang Ying'er! We're from the same village, I'm here to visit you today, and you're still ......."

Before he could cross the threshold, he was suddenly stopped by a guard guarding the door with a spear.

The guard moved extremely fast, Huang Ying'er didn't expect her to stand so far away, and she could actually run over and stop her in such a short time.

Looking at the dangling spear standing in front of her, Huang Ying'er's face turned pale.

The guard stared at Huang Ying'er expressionlessly, and said coldly: "Get out!" ”

……

"Wow-"

The sound of cold weapons connecting with each other continued to sound, and then, a person supported the ground with one hand, did a backflip, threw the long sword in his hand back, drew a big circle, gathered enough strength, and slashed towards the person in front of him.

The person who was cut jumped directly, avoided the slash at the waist, and the big knife in his hand slashed in the air.

The man at the bottom bent down, and the big knife slid directly past the door in front of him, only a little distance away, it could cut him in the face, and finally the big knife slashed through the man's belt, and with a click, the belt broke directly.

"Alright, alright! General, I lost! ”

was cut off his belt, Liu Changji could only quickly withdraw the long sword in his hand, retreated again and again, and then clenched his fists and begged for mercy.

Yue Lingjun landed lightly, threw the big knife in his hand to the weapon shelf not far away, put his hands behind his back, and looked at Liu Changji with a satisfied look.

"Yes, not only has my skills not regressed, but I have also improved, and I can pass twenty moves under me."

Liu Changji smiled, took a newly handed belt from the maid's hand, tied it to his body, and then walked towards Yue Lingjun.

"General, I'm just waiting for this day, although you left the capital, and our brothers dispersed, but everyone knows, including me, I also believe that the general will come back one day, with your generals, don't go back to the capital, don't go back to the barracks to lead the troops to fight, isn't it a waste? That was the misfortune of the people. ”

"I also believe that your great ambition, General, cannot be extinguished, so even if I am sent to the patrol battalion in the capital, I will not dare to slack off for a day."
