Wen Bin is a guy with a high affinity, his innate eight-sided exquisiteness in interacting with people, and his extremely good at meeting the source and seeing the wind and steering the rudder, make him a very suitable person to wander between various interpersonal relationships, even if he is in a high position and holds heavy power, he can also be as calm and easy as a skilled acrobat walking a tightrope.

At the same time, he is also a very good master.

This can be seen from Xiao Jing's devotion to him, from Shi Haidong, and from the sworn allegiance of several subordinate disciples to him when he first entered the 'Thousand Buddha Temple'.

To this day, he is a high-ranking official, and he is auspicious, and more than a dozen personal guards under his name have no second heart for him (after all, he has saved their lives for them at the beginning of the crisis), this kind of ability and kung fu is not something that any master can do.

The reason why this is so is not so much about their natural qualifications, but because of what they have learned.

Once upon a time, when Wen Bin was in the cold window for ten years, he once read an article called "A Thousand Dollars Buy Bones".

It is said that the king of a country is fond of playing with horses, and wants to ask for thousands of horses for a thousand dollars, and this order has been issued for three years, but still nothing has been obtained, and the king is very anxious, because he has not been able to get it, so he wants to get it more and more in his heart.

At this time, a lowly courtier beside the king volunteered to stand up and say to him, "I am willing to go out to find Maxima for you!"

The king was very pleased, and agreed, and promised a thousand gold. He made him travel around the world, and went out to search.

In less than a year, the man found a horse that traveled thousands of miles a day, but when he wanted to buy it, it fell ill and died, and the man thought about it for a night, and decided to buy the bones of the dead horse for five hundred gold.

When he returned to the palace with the bones of Maxima to report to the monarch, the monarch couldn't help but be very angry when he saw that it was the bones of a horse, and he angrily reprimanded: "What I want is a living Maxima." What do you do when you buy the bones of this dead horse? Isn't it a waste of five hundred gold!"

But the courtier was not afraid in the face of the thunderous king, but reasoned with him with a smile, and said, "Please calm your anger, the king, I have not spent this money in vain." ”

"You think. You are willing to buy the bones of a dead horse for five hundred gold. So religious. Then, when the news spreads, the world will believe that you are genuinely in love with Maxima. He who is willing to seek with a great deal of money, and know the goods, and speak the word. ”

"In this way, someone will definitely take the initiative to come to the door after learning the news and offer you a thousand miles of horses. ”

When the king heard this, he felt that there seemed to be some truth in what the courtier had said, so he was no longer angry, and spread the matter among the people in the manner he had said.

Later, within a year, the king did get three horses.

The purpose of this story is to show that if a superior person wants to find a virtuous person, he must first show his sincerity, so that the virtuous person will believe in you and will come to you from thousands of miles away.

...... In fact, this story can't completely allude to today's events, but it can still be touched: the current 'Seventh Hall Lord of the Floating Life' can give grace and rain to a fallen relative and guard around him, not to mention the virtuous generals?

Even if Wen Bin does not intend to recruit talents to fulfill his ambitions, his move, after it spreads, will inevitably be praised by the world, and it is good just to have a good reputation~

After all, these are just a small amount of money to him, and it is too profitable to be able to buy people's hearts so much that he is willing to do the work of dogs and horses!

The people who can be on errands beside him as the 'Lord of the Seventh Hall of Floating Life' are all selected through layers of selection, and the elites in terms of qualifications, talents, and cultivation strength are by no means ordinary ordinary people.

The guards are still like this, let alone the close guards?

After receiving three bows and nine bows from the subordinate again, he took out another wooden box from the 'Illusory Heaven Ring' that was almost identical to the previous one, handed it over, and told him: "This is the gift I intend to give to all the technicians and craftsmen. ”

"This ......"

Although the attendant took the gift that the master asked him to hand over with both hands, the whole person did not move, just stood hesitantly in place, subconsciously turned his eyes to look at the auspicious Ruyi next to him, and had a begging expression.

Just by looking at the appearance of this wooden box (which is exactly the same as the one the owner gave to himself and his brothers), you can almost guess what kind of gift it contains (nine times out of ten, it should be exactly the same as the one the owner gave to himself and his brothers).

"Well, that, master~"

Ji Xiang is still hesitating according to his own identity and status, this kind of thing in front of the master, when talking about the problem of whether to talk about it or not, the straightforward and straightforward Ruyi girl on the other side has been very brainless and used as a gunman: "Those technicians and craftsmen used to be hired by our 'Floating Life Palace', and they have always been doing things for us with a high amount of employment money, and we don't owe them anything!"

"To treat these people, you only need to do things according to the employment contract, they are to make a piece of equipment and get the money for a piece of equipment, which is different from us diehards who are desperate to eat salaries and benefits in the 'Floating Life Palace'!"

"Although, this is all a long time ago, after they were hired from afar, they have been in our 'Floating Life Palace' for several generations, but, the rules are the rules, you don't have to worry about them, master: if they want to make a living in us, they have to work hard, things are done, we look at the quality of the money, this is all clear rules and systems, it is a matter of course!"

"You don't have to take care of them~"

"Eh, you can't say that!"

Wen Bin shook his head and reasoned with her amiably: "You see, during the time I left, the two pieces of equipment I wanted were inscribed, polished, inlayed, soaked in potions, and given by magic circles... Wait a minute. It's all done so well, I don't believe it's all the credit of those people sent by the 'Mythical Armor Design Team', and it must be due to their hard work, which shows that they have done their best, right?"

This is not to say how the equipment is made in the end, but to be able to see their character and heart through this incident, which is a serious and responsible attitude problem. ”

"Success and failure are a matter of chance, and no one can guarantee that they will only succeed and not fail in their lifetime. ”

"I can tolerate failure. But not being serious. Don't work hard, don't do your duty, don't do your best. ”

"And now that they've done it in every way, why do we have to be indifferent?"

"The so-called 'rules' and 'systems'. Didn't someone settle it down in the beginning? It didn't grow out of the soil. Why do we have to obey it? And not be able to change it?"

"Maybe the predecessors had the rules of the predecessors, but now that I have inherited the position of 'hall master'. So what to do, what to do, it's all my temperament, right?"

"I don't like such rigid and rigid 'rules' and 'systems' all day long, and it makes no sense to stick to the old rules!"

"So what should be rewarded must be rewarded, and what should be praised must also be praised, otherwise it will be treated equally if you work hard or not, so why will people work for me in the future?"

"Maybe you can also say: if you don't do well, you will kick them, and you will not hire them anymore!"

"That being said, it's true, but, people are not grass and trees, these things are hurtful to do after all, and if they are spread out in the future, the craftsmen and masters outside the people will not say that we are mean and cold?"

"Why do we have to be stingy with our efforts, so that they don't want to stay dead, and work for us in peace, instead of making people happy in a panic?"

"I don't think I'm happy at all!"

“......”

Ruyi was reprimanded by him and was completely speechless.

After a while, he muttered an apology: "Uh, well, it's me who is wrong...... Master, you are too powerful! Your eloquence is too good! The little woman is beyond her reach, admire, admire!" she said, and deliberately lifted her long skirt slightly with both hands, and bowed to Wen Bin gracefully.

“...... Don't dare to be, don't dare to be!"

Wen Bin had an expression of 'you pretend to be true, I can't reach it!', and squinted at her from the corner of his eye.

These two people are in the same gear, and the appearance is so funny, which makes Ji Xiang who is next to him laugh, and he laughs all of a sudden.

Her smile amused the big guys, so the atmosphere on the scene also changed from the strict and touching at the beginning to a relaxed and pleasant.

Such an ending is very good~

Wen Bin smiled, waved his hand to the subordinate holding the wooden box, asked him to go to the errand first, and then turned his back and led Jixiang and Ruyi into the study.

After entering the study, he motioned for them to close the door, and then took out two small wooden boxes with floral textures carved into the 'Phantom Heaven Ring', which looked exquisite and small, and placed them on the desk, and told them with a smile: "This is the gift I brought back for you~"

The two small wooden boxes, although they looked delicate and rich, were just like pen cases, only the size of a palm, and they were only half the thickness of the previous wooden box.

It's really ......

"Too, too, what's the matter?" "If you have an opinion, you were so angry for a while that you almost fainted without opening your eyes: "Master, you are too favoritism!

As she spoke, she rushed over in three steps and two steps, picked up one of them, and depressively tossed and turned there for a long time, and couldn't help crying and crying bitterly: "Everyone is so big, and we sisters are so small!"

"Master, you are eccentric!"

"Master, do you think that Sister Jixiang and I are a woman, and you deliberately bullied the two of us!"

"yes!"

Wen Bin was also unambiguous, and immediately revealed a 'honest and kind' expression, honestly recruited from the truth, and said: "It is indeed 'favoritism', and the eccentricity can no longer be eccentric!"

"Don't believe you're going to open it and take a look?" (To be continued......)
