The customers who passed by and came to eat the braised food were very clear about how the business of the store was doing.
As soon as the notice was written and put out, those who had not found a satisfactory job or were working as waiters in other stores all had their own ideas.
It did not matter if they were illiterate. Naturally, there would be literate people who would explain to others after seeing the notice. Being able to read was also a symbol of status.
There were even parents who 'borrowed' their children from school and brought them to the door to let them read aloud to them. In fact, they were showing off to others that their children were literate.
The content of the notice was very simple. There were two big words at the top, 'Hiring'. Below that, there was a row of requirements. One of them was that they must be no younger than 16 and no older than 25.
The other was that they must be able to endure hardships. They must work at least 18 hours a day. If necessary, they might have to work more.
However, there was no limit to their experience. Even if they had not worked elsewhere before, they could still work as waiters. This time, a total of four waiters were recruited. They were responsible for the chores in the store and the delivery of food.
The salary would be determined according to the situation of the job. However, the basic salary was five copper coins a day. As for the other rewards, it was uncertain at the moment. There would be a trial period of three days, eight people would be recruited. In the end, four people would be retained. However, before the trial period, fifty people could be allowed to come in contact with the manager.
After seeing the contents of the notice, many people who had ideas shook their heads and left.
They felt that the working time was too long. 18 hours a day was the minimum, leaving only six hours for rest. Working in the store was too tiring. If the salary was higher, it would be fine. However, it was only five copper coins a day and less than 150 copper coins a month. It was clearly bullying.
As for the rewards mentioned above, it was not up to the boss. If the boss said to give it to you, then it would be given. If the boss did not want to give it, then he could just find a random reason to keep the money.
If it was ten years ago, 100 copper coins a month would be a job that everyone would fight to do. However, it was not ten years now. Just find something to do and it would be more than 100 copper coins a month.
Even if a child was willing to study hard and be ranked in the top ten in school, they would still be rewarded with more than 100 copper coins or items.
"One hundred fifty copper coins truly can buy many things. If it's just oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, tea, and grain, one hundred copper coins is enough for a family to live well for a month. But in the Great Tang, we don't just need to eat our fill, we need to eat well, right? How can a hundred copper coins be enough to buy a mirror, two sets of comfortable clothes, and some delicious meat? "
Among the people who were reading the notice, some of them began to talk. A person wearing fine linen and waving a folding fan in his hand spoke to the people next to him in a loud voice.
The surrounding people nodded in agreement. Someone even added, "Isn't that so? More is more. I heard that the things they buy are the property of the rich compared to the things they buy in Xinluo. The money we Tang people earn in a day's work can take at least ten days to buy the things they need to buy.
But we're not from Xinluo. We're from the Great Tang. How can a country be the same as a country? It's too little. If it were me, I wouldn't go. I'm already past my prime. "
There were many such voices, but there were still people who were willing to stand there. Most of them were people who met the age requirement. Perhaps they thought that doing things for 18 hours was not the same as doing things for 18 hours, so they still had time to spare.
Most importantly, by becoming a waiter, they might have the opportunity to come into contact with the delicious recipes of the braised food shop. If they could learn it, wouldn't they be able to find a place further away and open a small shop as well?
When it was time to close at night, the people had been recruited. There were less than fifty people. The wages and working hours of the braised food shop made many people shrink back.
A total of thirty-one people stood at the door, waiting for the shopkeeper to take a look.
Zhang Xiaobao looked like he was about to die of exhaustion. He supported his waist with his hands and stood at the door with a grin. He said to Wang Juan beside him, "No matter what, I have to recruit people today. If I work for another two days, I'll lose ten years of my life. Aiyo, I can't take it anymore."
"Yes, yes, we have to recruit people today. I'm tired too." Wang Juan frowned and said.
Her eyes swept over the thirty-one people, and she waved her hand and said, "Enough, come in with me. I want to take a good look and see which one is pleasing to the eye."
As she spoke, she and Xiaobao turned around and went in. Thirty-one people rushed in and each one of them found an empty spot to stand.
Zhang Xiaobao put down his hands that were supporting his waist, smiled honestly, and spoke first.
"Others call me Stone. My surname is Zhang. I don't think you're old, so don't keep calling me boss. I'm an honest person. As long as you can work, it's fine. In the future, call me Brother Zhang. Haha, it sounds more intimate. I'll go prepare some braised food for you to eat.
Let's eat some … "" Okay, go quickly. "Before Zhang Xiaobao could finish speaking, Wang Juan pushed him into the back kitchen.
When the thirty-one people heard Zhang Xiaobao's words, their hearts relaxed. They felt that this boss was not bad. He was honest, and he wanted to give them some braised food. They thought that in the future, their work in the shop would not be too hard. At least, there would be no problem in eating.
Just as this idea appeared in their hearts, but before it could germinate and grow into a towering tree, Wang Juan's face became cold and she said to them,
"Look at you, what are you doing here? Are you VIP? Let Stone make Lu Wei for you? Your eyes are so big, can't you see life? Didn't you see that the people just left, and the things on the table haven't been cleaned up? Stand by the side, clean up the bowls and chopsticks on the table, and send them to the back.
Two more people, go to the back to wash the dishes. The others set the table and swept the floor. A few people went to the door. There were still people outside who threw things. The shop's face is face. Go and clean it up. What are you looking for? No broom? Don't you know how to pick it up with your hands? Are you VIP?
Let me tell you, if you work in my shop, you have to be diligent. You have to have work in your eyes. Don't stay in my shop if you're all stupid.
I'll say this. If you don't want to work, leave as soon as possible. If you want to continue, do your work immediately. I don't keep idlers in my shop. Hurry up, what are you looking at me for? Go and work. "
For a moment, most of the thirty-one people felt the warmth in their hearts was suppressed by the thousand-year-old ice.
At that moment, fourteen people glared at Wang Juan and walked out of the shop angrily. They did not forget to turn around and spit twice. They also left while cursing.
The remaining seventeen people temporarily endured and began to look for things to do.
There was strength in numbers. Soon, the whole shop was cleaned up. The tables were also wiped clean with a cloth. There was also no other debris at the door.
The sound of dishes being washed came from the back of the kitchen. The person washing the dishes was puzzled. The shop was not big, but there were many bowls. Other small shops only bought bowls according to the number of tables. The bigger shops used porcelain bowls.
However, although the braised food shop was not big, there were hundreds of plates, bowls, and chopsticks. It was unknown what the owner and female owner were thinking after saving for an entire day.
At this moment, Zhang Xiaobao came out of the kitchen. Very timely, the others had finished their work. He came out with a basin full of various kinds of braised food.
When they saw the braised food, other than the person washing the dishes who was still busy and anxious, the others revealed a happy expression and waited for the food to be served.
"Haha, hahahaha, have you been waiting for a long time? I don't know what you want to eat. I thought for a while and decided. Give me a little of each. Eat all of them. Eh? It's clean? That's great. You're quite diligent. In the future, I'll leave the shop to you. Eat, eat all of them. "
The basin that Zhang Xiaobao carried was not small. It seemed to be at least eight kilograms. He was still as simple and honest as before.
The people who did not wash the dishes were about to take the basin and put it on the table to eat when Wang Juan spoke again.
"Stone, what do you think they are? They are not masters who eat, they are shop assistants. Can't you cut some skin? Look, what is this? Pig's ears, you actually gave them pig's ears. What should I say about you?
Are they people who eat pig's ears? Do they have that kind of life? Take out the chicken heart, chicken liver, and liver. Keep the broken pieces and take away the rest. Yo, you prodigal stone. Chicken wings, you are so generous and rich. Don't you know how much a chicken wing costs?
What kind of life am I living with you? Do you treat people as family members when you catch them? Let me tell you, if I don't exist in this house, you will starve to death. Don't you know how to settle accounts? "
Wang Juan's words made the people in the shop confused again. They finally understood that the owner was not bad, but the female shopkeeper was different. The owner was usually bullied by the female shopkeeper. What a pity, what a good owner.
They thought that if they knew that the idea was thought of by the seemingly simple and honest owner in front of them, they would probably bang their heads against the wall. They would not stop until they were bleeding and knocked out.
The person who was about to take the basin looked at the basin and stood there awkwardly. He did not know whether to take it or not. If he took it, the female shopkeeper said that there was something valuable in it. It would make it seem like he had to eat it. If he did not take it, the owner would be holding it.
Wang Juan glared at the person who was about to take the basin. "What are you looking at? Still looking? Quickly take it and put it on the table. Carefully pick out the things that you shouldn't eat with your chopsticks. Stupid. "
After she finished speaking, she watched the person go to take the basin. Wang Juan turned around and went back to the kitchen. Then, the people outside heard a voice coming from inside.
"Washing the dishes, not smashing the dishes. Why are you making such a big noise? Even people standing outside the shop heard it. What? Are you planning to change your profession? Go and be a musician. I'm not talking about you guys. You're so clumsy.
I'll say it here today. If you break a plate, five copper coins. If you break a pair of chopsticks, two copper coins. If you break a plate, three copper coins. If you break a bowl, ten copper coins. In the future, it will be paid from your wages. No one is allowed to be lazy.
Who washed the plate? This plate, in the basin, come out. You? Are you blind? You still have the face to stand out. Do you see the oil on the plate? Hey? You dare to use a rag to wipe it? Who are you kidding? Wash it again for me. If it's not clean, I won't give you any food in the morning.
I still say the same thing. If you can't do it, leave early. Don't wait for me to chase you away. I'm annoyed. You over there, change the water. You want to wash all the dishes with a basin of water? Lazy. Go to the back and get the water.
When the voice stopped, Wang Juan walked out and continued to glare at the people. She found a place to sit and crossed her legs. Her voice was not loud, but it could be heard muttering, "I don't see a smart one. Stupid as hell. In my opinion, five copper coins a day is more than enough. Humph, this family will be ruined sooner or later. Eat, eat, everyone who sees food becomes spirited."
After she finished speaking, the whole restaurant became quiet. After ten breaths, some people came out of the kitchen. Some people were originally outside. Suddenly, nine people left. They were not even willing to spit. They just looked back at the six people left and shook their heads. They meant to say that they had offended such a female boss.
Zhang Xiaobao also stopped picking things out of the basin with his chopsticks. He stood up, rubbed his hands, and squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying. He said awkwardly, "This … this is not enough for eight people to try it out. There, there are still two missing."
"What are you talking about? Three-legged toads are hard to find, but two-legged toads are everywhere. There are only six left. That's enough. You six, don't eat first. Go and wash the dishes in the kitchen. We'll talk when you come back. I'm telling you, I've already washed them. "
After Wang Juan finished speaking, she coldly snorted and walked towards the bedroom. When she arrived at the back door, she stopped and said without turning her head, "Shi Tou, pick out the food and put it away properly. If I find out that you dare to give them food, you can sleep with them on the table and stools outside at night. Don't forget to heat up the bathwater. You're making me sweat all over."
Zhang Xiaobao looked at the door where Wang Juan disappeared. He raised his hand and patted his forehead. Then, he said to the remaining six people, "Don't look so fierce. In fact, she's a good person. That, each of you have a taste first. Then, quickly wash the dishes. We'll eat later."
The six people looked at each other. Five of them walked towards the kitchen. The kitchen was not very big. It was a little crowded with five people. The last person looked at Zhang Xiaobao and asked,
"Brother Zhang, are we sleeping here tonight? Isn't there a special place for us to stay? I used to make soup pancakes in other shops. If you want to use me, can you find a place for me to stay? Sleeping on the table and chairs won't help me get tired. "
"Okay, there's another room that's empty. It used to be a place for storing sundries. That family moved away, so it's empty. Soup pancakes are good. Actually, go ahead and walk along the street. The shop in front is not bad. The owner is also good. If you want to be an apprentice, you can go there."
Zhang Xiaobao could see that this person was not lying. However, he understood the situation of his shop. If this person had some ambition, he would really stay in the shop. It would be a hindrance to him.
Therefore, he wanted to show this person the way to the shop where he learned the soup pancakes from. Of course, if the person in front of him thought that his skills were good and did not want to be an apprentice in someone else's shop, then it was his own business.
The person who asked the question understood. After thinking for a while, he said to Zhang Xiaobao with embarrassment, "Brother Zhang, then I … then I …"
"Go, go. Wait a minute." As he spoke, Xiaobao took a piece of oil paper and went to the table to wrap up a large bag of braised food. There were all kinds of food. He handed it over and said, "Bring it over to eat. Give it to your new boss. He's looking for an apprentice. You'll definitely be able to do it."
"Brother Zhang, I, I don't want it. I …" When this person was about to say that he did not want it, Wang Juan came back from the door. When she saw the situation here, she wanted to say something. However, Zhang Xiaobao and Weiwei shook their heads. Wang Juan swallowed what she wanted to say and pretended that she did not see it. She said to Zhang Xiaobao,
"I was over there just now. Why did I hear you say that you want to let them live in the empty room? There will be more and more people in the future. Don't we need to prepare things at home? If you let them live there, where will they put the things? They can sleep outside. It's not cold. I'll go out and buy some old summer mats and a few old blankets. They can sleep on anything. It's fine as long as they can sleep. If they can't sleep, they can only say that they are not sleepy. "
After that, Wang Juan went out. He did not know where she was going to buy old things. It was already late.
"Go, go, you go too. The soup pancake shop can't be closed now. He does business almost 24 hours a day. He is not afraid of closing it. Knock on the door. Someone inside can show you. I guess someone is thinking about making new soup pancakes."
Zhang Xiaobao stuffed the wrapped things to the person and said.
This person was not stupid. He saw Zhang Xiaobao shaking his head just now. He suddenly found that this shop was not what it looked like. The owner had to listen to his wife, but his wife was like that. However, she did not care about the things that were given out. It was very strange.
He took the owner and walked out. When he reached the door, he turned back and said to Zhang Xiaobao, "Brother Zhang, I know you are a good person."
"Okay, go. Don't give me the card." Zhang Xiaobao waved his hand.
This person left, but he kept thinking. What card? Could it be that he was playing the Monopoly game?
Of course, he did not know what Zhang Xiaobao meant by shaking his head. He was telling Wang Juan that there was no need to chase this person away. He was leaving and did not fit the target.
After a while, Zhang Xiaobao also went out and put away the recruitment sign at the door. He had achieved his goal. If there was no target among the remaining five people, it would be useless to put up a recruitment sign. It would only cause more trouble. There would be more people coming to ask about it. Then, he would have to think of a way to chase them away. It was very tiring.
After a while, the remaining five people came out of the kitchen. The bowls and chopsticks were also washed.
"Let's eat. Come and eat. Tonight, you guys can eat first. I will think of a way to find a place to stay." Zhang Xiaobao asked them to come over and eat. Of course, he picked the leftover braised food that was not good. He himself used a wine stick to boil a pot of wine. There were about 300 grams of ginseng wine. There were all kinds of important ingredients in it.
When Wang Juan came back, they would drink some to warm their bodies and improve their blood circulation. Although both of them were in good health, they were tired after a few days. Not only were they tired physically, but they were also tired mentally.
While there was still time, he ran to the kitchen and fried mutton with scallions and cucumbers with garlic. When Wang Juan came back, he also made a big bowl of radish soup. In fact, he knew that Wang Juan liked to drink shredded potatoes, but he could not get any potatoes now.
As for the staple food, it was biscuits used to collect seafood. He took out a lot of biscuits and gave them to the five people who were working.
The five people ate the braised food with different expressions. Some were surprised, some were thinking, some were curious, and some were indifferent.
But when they saw the boss coming out of the kitchen and smelled the food, they all had the same expression, which was puzzlement.
Just by smelling the food, they knew that the boss in front of them was good at cooking. Why did he only make braised food? Couldn't he add stir-fried food?
It seemed that the boss knew what they were thinking, and it seemed that he was willing to talk more. When they looked at the boss, he spoke.
"Actually, I would like to cook stir-fried food, but there are not enough people. Today, you guys eat braised food and biscuits. When I have time, I will cook something else for you guys. I am really tired today."
"Brother Zhang, don't worry. From tomorrow onwards, you won't be tired anymore. We are here." A waiter said with a smile.
The other four people also smiled and nodded. Then, when they looked at the person who spoke, there was a different meaning in their eyes.
After a while, Wang Juan came back with a person behind her. This person was carrying a bag.
As soon as they entered the door, Wang Juan stared at them and shouted at them, "Are you blind? Don't you see there is work? Eat, eat to death. All you know is to eat. Lazy people, come here. Who are you waiting for instead of packing your own things? "
Then, she walked to the counter and took out two coins. She walked back to the door and gave them to the person who came back with the bag, "Here, what three coins? Look at how slow you are walking. You wasted my time. I will deduct one coin. "
"We agreed on three coins. If it was two coins, I wouldn't come. How can you only give me two coins? It is not easy for me to do this job. I …"
"Two coins. Do you want it? If you don't want it, you can carry it back. I don't need you. I will ask the waiter to carry it. Three coins is to come back quickly. Look at how long you have been walking. I think two coins is too much. If you don't want it, I will take it back. "
Wang Juan did not wait for him to finish. She began to find excuses to deduct one coin.
The other party was also an honest person. He sullenly took the money and left without looking back. The five people who were recruited understood even more how stingy this female boss was. She actually dared to bully even a person who was resistant to death.
"Move faster. Don't make dust everywhere. Don't think that you are cleaning. We still have to eat here. You all have problems."
Wang Juan changed the topic and fired at the five people. The five people endured and carefully took the things back. They did not dare to untie the rope. They had to wait for their boss to finish eating. When they returned to their seats, they looked at Wang Juan. They wanted to sit but did not dare to.
"Why are you looking at me? Why don't you stop eating? Go, sit on the side. Huh? Pie, Shi Tou, you gave them pie? You, forget it, forget it. You're tired today. Your body won't be able to take it if you do anything else. Let them have it easy. From tomorrow onwards, let them choose someone to do their own thing. I'll decide what they do and what they use. "
Wang Juan said a few more words. Then she sat opposite Zhang Xiaobao and ate. She did not forget to glare at Zhang Xiaobao. She meant to say, "You came up with the idea, and now I am the bad guy. Are you satisfied?"
Zhang Xiaobao winked at Wang Juan. He picked up the hot wine, poured it into a small cup, and pushed it in front of Wang Juan, indicating that she should drink.
In the presence of outsiders, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan would not talk about other things. They talked about the trivial matters in the shop, such as how the chopsticks were old, how they should have saved the money for the chopsticks when they bought the shop, how one of the table legs was too short, and how they should find something to cushion it.
The five people who were hired felt that it was normal. However, they did not know that the people who were talking about the trivial matters in the shop would be studying the political, military, economic, cultural, and other things of the Tang Dynasty if they were in a different environment and identity.
But now, they were so ordinary that they couldn't be any more ordinary. No matter how you looked at them, they were a couple who ran a couple's restaurant. The male owner had a wife who ran around. The wife was very scheming, while the male owner was honest, simple and honest. Furthermore, he was a good cook.
After they finished eating, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan naturally went to the back to take a shower. The five people who were hired did not have this privilege. They did not dare to squeeze in, so they could only wash their faces casually. They did not even dare to brush their teeth. They could only deal with it today.
That night, Wang Juan and Zhang Xiaobao lay on the bed. Although Hangzhou was very hot this month, they did not like to sleep on a summer mat. The main reason was that there was no good summer mat. The ordinary summer mat was spread under the bed. If they slept on it, there would be marks on their bodies.
Zhang Xiaobao did not mind the heat. He put an arm under Wang Juan's head, controlled his breathing, and listened carefully. Wang Juan was also listening.
After a while, the two of them looked at each other. Xiaobao said, "It's actually five of them. I can tell from their eyes that you did that. If you can still tolerate it, you must have some ulterior motive. Also, when I saw them eating just now, they didn't look like they were faking it. The only one who looked like it was from our family.
I'm so disappointed. You know, sometimes it's lonely without an opponent. Now I finally understand what it means to be cold at a high place. It's very reasonable, under normal circumstances. "
"Under normal circumstances, for every 1,000 meters, the temperature drops by six degrees. If you go any higher, you will fly out of the atmosphere. Although it's called a high place, it can actually be said that the Earth is above your head. It depends on your body posture.
If it were not for the fact that the intelligence system at home could not find out, why would we bother? Sigh! The other party did not give it for nothing. They actually forced you to do it personally. They should be proud. "
Wang Juan continued Zhang Xiaobao's words.
The purpose of her coming out with Zhang Xiaobao was very simple. First, it was to make the other party in Beijing vigilant and change the idea of causing trouble in Beijing. Even if it was to reduce the danger, it was fine.
Second, it was to let the other party in Hangzhou think that Hangzhou was temporarily empty. They could see that the other party had always been treating them as a real opponent.
These two points were achieved. Third, it was to create an opportunity to open her own restaurant. Then, she would let the food into Wang Ju's house and be valued by Li Longji and the others. Then, her family would buy things from her restaurant.
The two of them were tired, but they definitely did not say that they were tired to the extent that they showed. This was not a problem at all. Even if they were a few times more tired, they could still bear it.
When sleeping at night, the two of them could quickly enter a deep sleep state. They could do it through a long-term training habit and psychological suggestion.
For someone like her, she was a genius to begin with. Furthermore, she had the support of her family, so the training she received was the strongest and most professional. When it came to her own Ba Wang Flower training, the most basic thing was not fighting, fighting, or firearms.
The most basic training for her was makeup, nutrition, and sleep. Shooting and fighting were the next level. The selection of Ba Wang Flower was not based on a person's hard work. Instead, it included talent when it was eliminated.
As for Xiao Bao's talent, there was no need to talk about it. The early learning and training were all part of the foundation. Later on, when he had money, he found someone to learn from, and it was more powerful.
The two of them were like this. The reason they could not endure it was to make others feel that it was normal.
Then, they would recruit people. Naturally, if the other party had influence in Hangzhou and was smart enough, they would definitely think of ways to enter the braised food store. This was because the store could send things to Wang Ju's family. This was the most important point.
From the looks of the people they recruited today, they had succeeded. The other party was ambitious, and there were people in Hangzhou. As expected, people came. The only thing they did not expect was that five people came at once. They were all people who did not come for the salary, but for a certain purpose.
Even their own family's intelligence organization had sent someone over. He was not bad and knew the key to this place. It was just that the other party did not recognize the two of them.
It was very simple for the two of them to recognize him. As long as the intelligence personnel's ability had not reached the level of perfection, they would never be able to get rid of the traces left behind by their training. Every training system had its own training methods. Therefore, this kind of training concept would be directly reflected on the trainees.
Of course, the other party also did not recognize the two of them. He was not in the inner courtyard with the two of them every day. He was far from that special magnetic field reaction of the body.
Why was it said that some couples who had been together for a long time could know what the other party was thinking with just a look, a movement, or even when the other party was not doing anything? Besides being used to it, it was also because they had adapted to each other's magnetic field fluctuations.
At first, they thought that Zhang Xiaobao was making a fuss over nothing and that the strategy he used would not have any effect. Unexpectedly, they really caught the fish.
Thinking of this, Wang Juan said to Zhang Xiaobao again, "When it comes to deceiving people, you are really good at it. How did you know that they would take the bait?"
"How would I know? There is no 100% certainty in deceiving people. It has never happened before. If one plan does not work, another plan can be made. As long as the other party has the desire, then we can make use of it. To be honest, I am ready to fail. I am not as confident as before when I deceived the officials. "
Zhang Xiaobao listened to the movement there while talking to Wang Juan.
Wang Juan did not follow Zhang Xiaobao's topic. She knew that Zhang Xiaobao was criticizing the officials at that time. Of course, it was not Zhang Xiaobao's fault. The officials at that time were really a little too much.
They were so overboard that the people clearly knew, and the officials themselves also knew that they had done something wrong. Moreover, there were many shameful actions that were exposed. But what did the officials do? They were just lying with their eyes wide open.
Was it wrong? Yes, did others know? The whole world knows, and I know, but I just don't admit it. What can you do to me? I'm shameless, I'm shameless, I don't care about human affairs, I don't care about ethics, you people can only watch and stare at me in disbelief.
I am an official. I want to tell you through my actions that it is useless no matter how much evidence you have. You should never think of using public opinion to restrict me or threaten me. I want to let you gradually know the reality of this country. I want you to accept my actions. If I say that I did not do it, then I did not do it. Even if it is the truth, and the whole world knows.
But even so, Wang Juan did not want to hear it because she was numb. Anyway, it was already like that. Zhang Xiaobao could not change it no matter what he said. It would only make people upset. Why bother? It seemed that the officials had achieved their goal.
She changed the topic.
"Xiaobao, I can see it too. The five of them all came here with ulterior motives. However, one of them is ours, while the other four are actually divided into three groups. One group has two people, and the other two groups have one person each. Which one do you think is which?"
"I don't know which one is which. I know that the force definitely sent people in. As for which group, we need to observe. If it is not two people, then it is one person."
Zhang Xiaobao said as if he was saying a tongue twister.
"Do I need you to say that? It is just a small shop, but there are actually people from four forces. That is interesting. Since it is so, we should let the other four people enjoy it. We need to take care of our own people. You also need to find a place. "
Wang Juan said with a smile. There were five people in total. One of them was from the intelligence department of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Family, and the other four belonged to three different forces or organizations. From this, it seemed that Hangzhou was also a gathering place.
Of course, it did not matter if there were four forces, but her own person had to help him and let him relax a little. However, she could not reveal her identity immediately. She had to do it at a critical moment.
After hearing Wang Juan's words, Zhang Xiaobao moved his arm and supported Wang Juan's head a little. They really needed to find a place.
Now that five people were living in the shop in front, it was not only inconvenient for the two of them to do things, but also inconvenient for the five people. After considering the layout of the surrounding houses, Zhang Xiaobao said, "There is a narrow street behind our braised food shop, and there is a courtyard diagonally there.
When we bought this house that day, didn't that house also put up a notice to rent and sell? Let's see if they sold it. If they didn't sell it, let's rent it first. I will buy more large vats and make more pickles. Whether it is to sell them or to take them with us when we leave, it will be fine.
Also, we have to specially prepare some ingredients. Since the burrito has been sent in, I think my mom will also want to try it. We have to make something for our mothers to eat. Seeing that they are by our side, it will be unreasonable if we don't take care of them.
When the time comes, we will arrange for the five of them to sleep there. They can fight and play among themselves. Let's help our person and make him feel better. "
"Rent a house? Why don't we buy it? Oh, right, we are people who don't have money. If we buy it directly, people will be suspicious. It is fine to rent it. I have seen the courtyard. There are two courtyards at the front and back. The front courtyard is bigger and is about 30 square meters. The back courtyard is about 16 square meters. There are three rooms.
Wang Juan leaned her head on Zhang Xiaobao's body and closed her eyes. Zhang Xiaobao did not continue to listen to the movements outside and also fell asleep.
The two of them fell asleep, but the five people outside could not sleep.
Five people and four big tables were put together into a place where two people could sleep. The other three people naturally had to sleep on the ground. In order to be able to sleep on the ground, the five of them had a 'competition'.
The main reason was that they could sleep on the ground with the other two people. They could talk to each other softly and improve communication. This was a rare opportunity because at the end, one person had to leave. The other party only said that they would recruit four people, but now there were five people.
No one wanted to leave, not even the organization that had two people in. Two people were not a lot. It would be better if all five of them were. One more person meant one more helper.
Not to mention the other three people. In the end, the four tables were put together, and the two people sleeping on the table were also close to each other. Then the problem was solved.
The five of them also said their ages and surnames. Unexpectedly, four of them were Zhang and one was Wang. No one knew what they were thinking. It seemed that these two surnames gave people the feeling that they were more common.
The only one with the surname Wang was an intelligence agent of the Zhang Family and the Wang Family. His surname was Wang, and he followed the main family's surname. As for whether the other four were really surnamed Zhang, he did not care.
Because one of the two was there, he did not win the competition, so he was squeezed to the table with the other person.
On the first day, sleeping time naturally would not be wasted. The three people below were lying there and whispering.
The intelligence agent of the Zhang Family and the Wang Family was called Wang Gang. He did not need to fake his name. This name was so common that many people would give it, just like Wang Juan's name.
He said to the person next to him who was called Zhang You, "Third Brother, I think that although the restaurant is small, the food is really good. I ate braised meat at night, and now I feel hungry again, so I ate a lot. I ate three pieces of the pancakes. What do you think?"
Zhang You was facing up. When he heard Wang Gang's words, he nodded. He did not care about the pain in his neck and responded, "Yes, yes, I think so too. Second Brother, where are you from? You don't sound like a local. "
"Not a local. I came from Henan, which is far away from Hangzhou. Third Brother, what do you think of the female boss?" Wang Gang replied and asked again.
Zhang You pretended to think, and then said, "She is very good. I have seen many people like her. In fact, they are not bad."
He did not dare to say bad things. There were five people now. If someone said bad things behind his back, the people below would hear it. If three people said bad things, even if he had a helper, it would be very troublesome.
After saying this, he asked Wang Gang again, "You live in Henan. Why did you come to Hangzhou?"
"It's a long story. Ah! Third Brother, where are you from? You don't sound like a local. " Wang Gang saw that the other party did not say bad things about the female boss, but asked him instead. He was vigilant in his heart, thinking that the other party was not so simple.
"Me? I'm from Jiannan East Road. Later on, I fled to Jiangnan West Road, and then came here. It's been three years, but I can't change my accent. It sounds different to you. How long have you been here? Did you just come here? It was not warm in your place for the first two months. "
Zhang Youshi was talking to Wang Gang while listening to what was going on below. Just as he finished asking, he heard someone talking about the sea food burrito for fishermen. Then he added, "I don't know if we can taste that burrito. Everyone says it's delicious, but it's too expensive. It costs 30 coins. It's not easy to earn money. Brother, have you ever seen one?"
The brother he was talking about was the one who was with him, but he thought that the other people did not know that the name this person said was Zhang Yi.
When Zhang Yi heard the other party's words, he understood that the other party was lying on the table and did not have much gain, so he asked for help. So he replied, "I don't know either. Second Brother, where did you live in Hangzhou?"
Look, I'm still lying on the table. Actually, it's good that you're here. You're older than us, so it's only right for you to sleep on the table. The floor is cold, and there's only a mat. It's damp, so why don't we change? "
Wang Gang was facing other people's questions again, so he just said one sentence lightly. How could he not understand the principle of saying too much is bound to make mistakes? To tell a lie, he needed to tell more lies. It was always easy to inadvertently reveal a loophole.
After answering Zhang Yi, he said to the two people on his left and right, "Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother, help me to persuade the eldest brother."
Before Fourth Brother and Fifth Brother could say anything, Zhang Yi laughed and said, "Second Brother, I am only three months older than you. I am not old at all. Haha, Second Brother, why don't we think about who will go out to deliver things and who will stay in the shop? Then we can tell the boss. You tell us first, and we will listen."
"If you want me to say …" After saying these four words, Wang Gang acted like he was thinking about something, but in his heart, he was cursing. Zhang Yi was too bad. No matter what he said, he thought that when the time came, the four of them would agree and agree with what he said.
Then, one of them would go to the boss and let the boss arrange according to what he said. Moreover, the boss would specifically mention that it was his idea, and the four of them would agree.
Then what would the consequences be? The male boss might still be as honest as before, nodding and agreeing. But the female boss would probably think that he was not clear about his identity. Would he have to listen to the arrangements of a shop assistant?
Then, there was a high possibility that he would be driven away. He could not say anything.
"Second Brother, have you thought about it?" Zhang Yi urged.
Wang Gang twisted his body, which made him look very awkward. Fortunately, the moonlight shone over and they could see his outline. He shook his head and said, "If you want me to say … when the time comes, we will just wait for the boss's orders. The boss is very good at judging people. Of course, he will have a foolproof plan. Big Brother, why don't you tell me what to do? "
"Uh! As for me, I think Second Brother is right. We will listen to the boss. Go to bed early. We have to get up early tomorrow. We can't delay the boss's business. Sleep, all of you sleep. "
Zhang Yi did not dare to say his thoughts, but he felt that if he did not say something, he would be weak. So, he directly said to sleep. If the other four people all fell asleep, it would naturally reflect his status.
Zhang You quickly echoed, "Big Brother is right. Sleep. When we are free, I will listen to Big Brother and sleep first."
After that, he did not say anything. It seemed that he had fallen asleep, and it was better for others not to disturb him.
The other three people had no choice but to adjust their positions. They covered themselves with a blanket that they did not know where the female boss bought from. There was also a blanket with an indescribable smell. They also fell asleep one after another. Whether they could sleep soundly was another matter.
