Zhang You was stunned by Wang Juan's words, and then he suddenly reacted. She didn't want him. Was it because he didn't help to bargain when they were renting the house?
That's right, he was a shop assistant, not a rich person. He agreed to the price the broker asked for, but the female boss was dissatisfied. That's right, the female boss didn't care whether she was rich or not. With her stingy appearance, she hated that she couldn't split a copper coin into two and spend it. Of course, she would appreciate a shop assistant who could help her bargain.
Thinking of this, Zhang You regretted it very much. He was careless. If he was driven away, he would be left alone in the restaurant. It would be more convenient for him to do things with two people.
"Boss, boss, listen to me. I'm not good with words, but I'm quick with my work. I don't know how to bargain. Boss, please give me another chance."
Zhang You stood beside Wang Juan and bowed to explain.
Wang Juan shook her head. "As a waiter, you don't know how to talk. What if the guest asks you something during dinner and you don't answer well? Won't you offend the guest? Hum! "
After that, Wang Juan walked in, not giving Zhang You the slightest chance.
Zhang You stood at the door and was stunned for a while before he went in. When he went in, he was already depressed.
The other three waiter in the restaurant also heard what Wang Juan said at the door. Two of them were happy, and one of them was very annoyed. When Zhang You came in, he stared at him, but he didn't say anything because he knew it was useless to say anything.
After staring at Zhang You, he wanted to stare at Wang Gang. Just as he glanced over, he suddenly realized that one of his people had left. He couldn't continue to offend others. He had to find a way to build a good relationship with others to make things easier.
Thinking of this, his eyes became calm and he said to Wang Gang, "It's hot. Are you tired outside?"
Wang Gang was happy in his heart. He had found that the two people were in the same group, and their purpose was not pure. Finally, one of them was driven away by him.
If it was more or less the case, it should be the faction that was always causing trouble behind the scenes. That faction had a lot of people, and they were actually able to infiltrate this place. Unfortunately, their foundation was not good enough. In terms of the cultivation of spies, they were not even close to the main faction.
He must not have gone through any systematic training. How dare he come here to cause trouble? Hmph, let's wait and see what the remaining person has up his sleeves.
Although Wang Gang was thinking about it, he didn't show it on his face. He smiled and said, "I'm not tired. Boss is the one who's tired. Boss has put in a lot of effort to find a house for us to live in. We have to work hard in the future."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Juan, who had taken over Zhang Xiaobao's position, spoke up.
"Little Gang, you're not bad. You've saved money for the store. It's not easy to find a good worker. How about this, from now on, you'll be paid six copper coins a day. Also, I see that the workers in the bigger stores all wear the same clothes. Our store is not bad now. Take the money and find someone to make four sets of clothes.
With your skills, I think you won't be too bad. I trust you. Xiao Yi, your eyes are a little lively. Can't you see that there's a shelf above? Hurry up and fill in the blanks. Hmph, all you know is to stand there like a fool. "
After Wang Juan finished speaking, she began to flip through the bookkeeping book. She glanced at the other tables and lowered her head to count them one by one. It seemed that she didn't even trust the male boss.
Zhang Yi secretly sighed. He knew that he had been tricked by Wang Gang. Originally, he wanted to get closer to Wang Gang. Who would have thought that the other party would mention the Dong Family. He didn't say that the Dong Family was implicated. Sure enough, the Dong Family was remembered by the narrow-minded Dong Family.
'Say it, say it with all your might. Do you really think that I'll take a liking to your shabby store? Wait, wait until the task is done. I'll let you open the store. Hmph, I'll let you take my life. You'll pay me back. I'll definitely pay you back. '
Zhang Yi cursed in his heart, but he had to hurry up and fill in the blanks according to Wang Juan's words. At the same time, he hated Wang Gang. In less than a day, he was chosen by the boss and arranged such a good job.
Wang Gang could directly take the money to make clothes, and the boss didn't worry that he would pocket the money, which meant that he had won the boss's trust.
This was not good. Maybe he would get more opportunities in the future. If he couldn't get a certain amount of trust, it would be more difficult to find an opportunity to act according to the orders of the boss.
The other two shop assistants also noticed this. One of them looked at Wang Gang with a slightly different look than Weiwei. It seemed that he was confused and guessing.
The other one acted as if nothing had happened and turned around to clean up the bowls and chopsticks on the table of the two people who had just finished the braised food.
The whole shop returned to its previous tranquil state, as if nothing had happened. However, Zhang You took the money and left gloomily. He didn't know if he would be punished when he returned to the organization. After all, because of his negligence, Zhang Yi had to carry out the plan alone.
When Zhang You went out, he didn't forget to stare at Wang Gang. Wang Gang acted as if he didn't see it and still stood at the door. When someone needed to pack something, he went to help.
He glanced at Zhang You and sneered in his heart, because he knew that Zhang You wouldn't leave easily.
Zhang You didn't know what Wang Gang was thinking. He walked out of the door angrily, looked around, and then went east. About a hundred meters behind him, there was a person who seemed to have just walked there. The person also followed him.
Wang Juan checked the account and nodded with satisfaction. She asked Zhang Xiaobao, who came out from the back and brought some water to the front, "Did the steamed buns take away?"
"Yes, I didn't take the money. I said to let them try it. If they think it's good, they can buy it again. If they don't like it, they won't make it."
As Zhang Xiaobao spoke, he smiled at Wang Juan. Wang Juan returned his smile. Now that the two of them had chased away the waiter, it would be much more convenient for them to carry out their plan.
Zhang You being driven away was something that Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan had planned. Two people from the same organization were sent in. Of course, they couldn't keep all of them. If one was driven away, there would be four left. That would be fun.
Of course, there was another purpose for driving Zhang You away. It was to let their spies follow Zhang You and see if they could get some information.
They didn't arrange for people to follow Zhang You. According to normal circumstances, since Wang Gang came, the spies in charge of spying naturally had to check the situation in the store.
However, they couldn't find out whether their identities were real or fake. Before they came, they had already prepared a set of real identities. The spies under them weren't good enough, so they could only report and let the higher-ups investigate. They found out the birthplace of the two owners of the store.
The higher-ups would naturally follow the instructions of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan and tell the spies under them that their identities were correct and they didn't need to pay attention to them.
In the past, it was really difficult to investigate a person's identity in Tang. Many people didn't have an identity and didn't even have a citizenship. For example, in a village, they didn't have a citizenship and hid in the mountains. In this way, they didn't have to pay rent and didn't need to do 'voluntary work' for a period of time every year.
But now, it was easy to investigate the identity of a person in Tang because there were a lot of benefits. If a person with a child went to school, he must have a citizenship. Otherwise, why would the businessmen of Tang help people from outside to raise children?
Also, if a woman in a family was pregnant and had a citizenship, she would receive benefits from Tang from the time she knew she was pregnant until the child was born. Moreover, she would be rewarded for giving birth to a child.
Or, if a person from the same place didn't have a citizenship and didn't have any money, they could only find a job or beg for food. If they found a job, they wouldn't be paid every day. If they begged for food, they would be arrested by the local authorities.
But it was different with a citizenship. If they really ran out of money, they could just go to the local authorities. According to the policy proposed by Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan to Li Longji, every local authority had a special room to receive the commoners.
As long as one went in and said that they were hungry, someone would send food to the poor and say that they couldn't find a job. The authorities would still ask them what they knew and if they had any skills. If they did, they would be arranged to work in such a place. If not, they could only do manual labor.
And the prerequisite for all of this was that one had to have proof of one's citizenship. If one lost it, they had to say it so that the local authorities could verify it.
Under such a policy, there wasn't a single commoner in Tang who didn't want a citizenship. This was because having a citizenship gave them more benefits than not having one.
Because it was very easy to investigate a person from Great Tang, it was just a matter of money. If it was someone from another country, it would be easier to identify them.
Thus, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's identities were confirmed. At the same time, the shop opened by the two of them provided a clue for the spy system in his family.
"Our intelligence personnel are still the best. Look at that Wang Gang, he has indeed undergone professional training. You don't know how good Wang Gang was when I went to rent a house."
Wang Juan whispered to Zhang Xiaobao.
Even though Zhang Xiaobao didn't follow along, he could imagine the situation after hearing Wang Juan's words. Wang Gang must have found an opportunity to help the owner save money so as to gain the trust of the owner and be able to stay in the shop.
Competition was everywhere. What a good spy could do was to obtain the final victory in the competition. Wang Gang had succeeded. Not to mention that the two of them had deliberately made him stay, even if it was an ordinary shop, if they could negotiate the price when they went out with the owner, they would still be able to gain the favor of the owner.
The ability of the spy trained by the system showed at this moment. 'I stay, you go, it's that simple.'
"Of course, our people are not for nothing. In order to train them, how much manpower and material resources have been used? Now it seems that his performance is not bad. Give him a few more chances to show his performance and help him establish the leadership of the four people. I believe that he will make good use of it. "
Zhang Xiaobao glanced at Wang Gang, who was helping the customers pack. Weiwei nodded and said to Wang Juan. At the same time, there was a hint of pride on his face, because many of the training methods for spying were provided by him.
Wang Juan also showed a little smile, "You are awesome. Go to work. Do you think it is easy for me to take care of this shop?"
"Yes, I will listen to you. I will go to the back and have a look," Zhang Xiaobao said cooperatively and turned around to leave, which made Wang Juan smile even more.
She found that it was really fun to open a shop with Zhang Xiaobao. It was also interesting to experience the living habits of different people according to their different identities. Unfortunately, when this matter was settled, she would have to return to her real self again. She didn't know how to busy herself and left behind many things. Damn the power, when they found out, none of them would be good.
Wang Gang was also puzzled when he saw the two owners whispering to each other with different expressions on their faces.
He always felt that the two owners of this small shop were faintly hiding something, but he couldn't tell what it was. There was no problem in all aspects. They were no different from the owners of other small shops. They were very ordinary. The man was simple and honest, but he was not stupid at all.
As for the woman, she was very fond of fussing over little things. It seemed that she wouldn't give up until she tired others to death. She was afraid that she wouldn't get a return on her salary. Just like other women, there were such types.
But why did he have a special feeling? It seemed … it seemed that he felt it from the eyes of the other party. It seemed that they were examining him to see if he was good enough. Examining was a very normal thing.
As the owner of a shop, of course, he would look at how his employees were doing when they were working. However, he felt that they were not only examining his employees, but also examining his other identity.
Just when he thought of his other identity, Wang Gang couldn't help but tremble. His other identity was a spy for the Zhang Family and the Wang Family. If his other identity was also seen through by others, wouldn't he be too bad at his job?
It was impossible. How could two people in this small shop see through his identity? What a joke. Was he thinking too much? Was his mind unstable? That was a taboo for spies.
No, it wasn't that he was thinking too much. He really did have a feeling. According to what was said during training, spies needed to trust their intuition at critical moments. If there was no other choice, then they should act according to their intuition.
It seemed that he had to find an opportunity to test these two people and see if their intuition was wrong or right.
Wang Gang made a decision in his heart. He relaxed for a moment and his mood improved when he started working.
He was waiting for an opportunity to test them. He had to be a little more discreet.
*****
While Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were busy buying and selling goods in the shop.
On the river near Xunyang in Jiangzhou, Xiao Bei and the others' fleet had not yet docked. They occupied a lot of space on the river, so the cargo ships and passenger ships had to carefully pass through.
But even so, no one complained. This was especially true for the people in charge of transporting goods on both sides of the river. Not only were they not unhappy, they were very happy.
In the past, when they worked, they always had to be very careful. If they weren't careful, the boat would easily capsize. Every year, there would be all sorts of accidents on this part of the river. Some people died, some goods were lost.
For example, when they were in the middle of the river, a sudden gale would cause the boat to reach the center of the river. Then, it would depend on the boatmen's skill and luck. Moreover, they couldn't accept any work at night. That would be courting death.
But it was different now. With the Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Family's fleets on the river, the boatmen weren't worried about any problems. This was because a problem had already occurred once.
A small boat carrying people was capsized not far from the center of the river. There were twenty-one people on the boat. Including the boatmen, there were twenty-two people.
At the time, the people on the shore and on the water cried out in alarm. The boatmen also accepted their fate, and so did the boatmen.
In the end, just as the boat capsized, a group of frightening swimming experts jumped down from the boats of the Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Family's fleets. Various life-saving devices filled the sky. The entire river seemed to be covered with them. As long as the people who fell into the water grabbed onto any one of them, they wouldn't drown immediately.
In the end, the twenty-two people were all rescued. Even the capsized boat was tied up with hooks and stuck to the side of the big boat. The only thing that was lost was a small portion of the life-saving devices, which were washed away by the water.
A large amount of life-saving devices were scooped up with nets. As for the ones that were washed away, they would probably be scooped up in other parts of the river. Seeing the unique rice seedling symbol of the Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Family, they should be able to send them to the Great Tang Bank or Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Family's restaurants.
Since they weren't going to send them, there was no harm in leaving them. It didn't matter who used the life-saving devices. The Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Family didn't care about this little bit of money. Human lives were more important.
With that situation, the people who used the boats to ferry people were completely relieved. Every one of them became bolder and more confident. Because they weren't worried that something would happen, they were confident and in a good state. Instead, there were no problems.
For them, the most important thing was that they could ferry people at night. The electric lights on the fleet illuminated the river as bright as day, and business became better.
Because many people were afraid of water, they wouldn't take the boat if they could. They would rather take a long detour and walk on the bridge built by the Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Family, or not cross at all.
But since they didn't have to worry, they naturally wanted to take the boat and take a look. It was fine to treat it as a vacation. Some old people who didn't dare to cross the river their whole lives even took their grandchildren to see the scenery on the boat. It could be seen how much they trusted the Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Family.
They even hoped that the fleet carrying Xiaobei and the others from the Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Family would never leave. Of course, this was just their imagination. It was impossible.
At the same time, they hated the people who wanted to bomb Xiaobei and the others even more. This was because they knew that Xiaobei and his children were still hiding in the cabin, not showing their faces at all.
The local people were very angry. This was the Great Tang, the territory of Jiangzhou. When the children of the Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Family went to other places, they could casually stroll around the streets and play with the local children.
But when they arrived in Jiangzhou, they could only hide in the cabin, not even daring to go up to the deck. To the people of Jiangzhou, this was a disgrace.
Therefore, the commoners helped to search again and again. After the search in the morning, when they were eating lunch, perhaps there would be commoners who would organize themselves to search again. Then, in the evening, or even in the middle of the night, they would take turns to get up and form groups to search again.
Not only were they searching for others, but they were also checking to see if there were any bad people in the search team.
This process continued for several days. It was as if they had to dig three feet into the ground to give Xiaobei and the others an explanation.
The result was that the people hiding in Xunyang were captured one after another. Anyone who was caught would first receive a beating. If they hadn't been handed over to the Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Family for interrogation, they would have already been beaten to death.
In just a few days, with the help of the people of Xunyang, forty-two people had been captured. All of them were imprisoned in the provincial capital of Xunyang, where they would be separated and interrogated through various methods.
As for Xiaobei and the others, they continued to stay on the ship. They played in the largest hall, all of them devoting their energy to studying.
"We've caught forty-two. This is the strength of the people. It's true that water can carry a boat … and it can even capsize the boat. Without their help, relying only on my family and the power of the authorities, it would be pretty good if we could catch even half of them. Truly amazing."
As Xiaobei ate, he said this to the others.
Xiao Yuan did not correct Xiaobei's words. Instead, he took the fish and fed it to Pan'er, who was waiting with her mouth open. He said, "We should go down. If there are still some that slip through the net, they might take advantage of the time we go down to think of a way to make a move against us. We can catch them all."
"If we don't go down, what do we go down for? Wait, wait for the people to continue searching. They actually dared to blow up my ship, so I definitely won't let them have an easy time. I plan on personally killing a few of them to prove their courage. "
Xiaobei shook his head.
"If we keep asking the people to help search, won't the people still work? If we delay the opportunity to make money, who will be responsible? "Xiao Yuan was a little dissatisfied.
Yet Xiaobei carelessly said, "What's there to be afraid of if we delay time? We'll give them a chance to make extra money, and we'll even give them some gifts as thanks. That way, we'll make up for our losses.
I'm not going down because I'm afraid, and I'm not going to torment the people. Rather, through this operation, I want the people to understand the importance of unity and cooperation.
For example, in the past, there were people who didn't have a good relationship with their neighbors. When questioned by our people, we can ask them if their neighbors could be bad people and have them speak the truth.
I believe that for the sake of their responsibility to us, they won't speak carelessly and will instead evaluate objectively. In the past, when their relationship was not good, they would always remember each other's bad points. Now, when they evaluate objectively, they will think and speak at the same time. In the process, they will discover that their neighbors were actually not bad people. Both sides were responsible for their previous conflicts.
Then, they will search together and cooperate. They will take turns on night watch. Their relationship will gradually become harmonious. Without communication, it will naturally deepen their conflicts. With communication, it will be fine, right? Aren't I very smart? "
As Xiaobei spoke, he did his best to stick out his chest, looking as if he was waiting for someone to praise him.
"Amazing, truly amazing," Xiao Yuan very cooperatively praised.
And this was truly the case. The relationships between the common people of Xunyang had improved because of this matter. Those who normally had conflicts with each other gradually resolved their conflicts as they worked together, especially when they worked together to capture a single person. When they high-fived each other in celebration, the smiles they gave each other turned into smiles of resentment and gratitude.
Presumably, once this matter passed, the common people of Xunyang would spend a very long time reminiscing about the events of each day. Even if there was some friction, they would still remember that they had once worked together, that they had persevered for the sake of the same conviction.
"So, we still have to continue waiting, waiting for them to capture another person. What they lose is time, and their time is usually used to earn money. We can use other methods to compensate them. What we lose is just a bit of money, but we have made the people of Xunyang even more united.
Compared to the fact that the people of one place in the Great Tang can become even more united, what is the money we lose compared to what we gain? Isn't that right?
I've also prepared a speech. When the time comes, let the people stay on both sides of the river. Let's use the loudspeakers on our ships to thank them for this matter. I'll specifically mention the matter of their unity, and I'll mention it a few times. I'm the best at this. "
Xiaobei was so excited that he didn't even eat. He just stood there thinking as he spoke. As he spoke, the others could only stop and accompany him, occasionally helping him add a few words. Even Pan'er and Pan'er were no longer willing to eat. They blinked their large eyes as they curiously listened to their older brother and sister speak in a language they didn't understand.
By the time Xiaobei and the others had finished adding to their plan, the dishes had already gone cold. Other than the cold plates and the hairtail fish that could continue to be eaten, the rest were taken away and sent to the kitchen to be reheated.
While waiting for the dishes to be reheated, Xiaohai said, "Big Brother and Big Sister said that they have something to do, but I don't know how they're doing. I haven't been able to get in touch with them these past few days. I hope that they'll be successful."
"They'll definitely be successful. Big Brother and Big Sister won't be defeated," Xiaobei firmly declared as he waved his fist.
*****
The undefeated big brother and sister that Xiaobei spoke of were currently worried.
"They actually want the two of us to go to their manor to cook for them. Are you kidding me? If we go there, others won't recognize us, but how could the servants who usually serve us and my mother, your mother, not recognize us?
Not to mention the mother that he always saw and grew up with, even mother and daughter who had been separated for many years would sometimes have a telepathic connection when they brushed past each other.
No matter how good our disguises are, I believe that as long as my mother sees us, she'll immediately recognize us. My mother hasn't learned this kind of thing before. If we reveal something wrong and are discovered by others, what should we do? "
Zhang Xiaobao said with difficulty.
At noon today, people from the Wang Juan family came. It was that very arrogant person who relied on his family's power. He said that he wanted Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan to go to the manor before noon the day after tomorrow to make something in front of them. The people in the manor would choose the ingredients.
Of course, Zhang Xiaobao couldn't go. That was why he was worried.
Wang Juan was the same. She knew that what Zhang Xiaobao said was true. At that time, they often had cases where long-lost relatives found each other.
One reason was because relatives would always remember that someone had been separated from them. The other reason was because of the telepathic connection that was currently unstudied by science.
A picture on the monitor could give a long-lost relative a special feeling, let alone meeting them. She and Xiao Bao had only been separated from their mother for a few days. Once they met, they would definitely be exposed.
Perhaps Xiao Bao's mother had received good education and could endure, but what about her own mother? If she was agitated, all her previous efforts would be wasted.
"Xiao Bao, don't worry. There are still two days left. Think of a way. Maybe we can not go. If we really go, we can only catch the three workers in the shop and torture them. But in that case, the clues will probably be cut off somewhere.
You see, Zhang You left, and Zhang Yi didn't have any problems. No one came to catch him, which means that our spies didn't find any useful clues on Zhang You, so they didn't dare to act rashly and alert the enemy. Or maybe Zhang You and Zhang Yi's forces aren't the forces that are secretly causing trouble.
The best way is to continue waiting. Wait for the other side to show a loophole, then we can catch them and find the people behind them. Sigh, defense is never as easy as offense. If we go to other people's place and hide behind them to cause trouble, it will be more troublesome for them. "
Wang Juan persuaded Zhang Xiaobao. In fact, she was also comforting herself and calming herself down.
She knew that she had to find the people hiding in the dark and deal with them. Otherwise, with the method of controlling religion and using the Big Tobacco Ointment, the other party would continue to grow stronger.
Of course, if it was history, there was no record of this in Great Tang. Perhaps she and Xiao Bao developed too quickly and attracted the attention of people from other places. Perhaps there were people from Great Tang involved. It was hard to guard against a thief in one's home.
Hearing Wang Juan's words, Zhang Xiaobao fell into deep thought. After a while, he whispered, "Tomorrow morning, there will be ten trays of buns. Each tray will be sixty copper coins. Altogether, a bun is five copper coins. I'm making small buns. If you have to find a name, it will be sheep's eye buns.
The texture is very good. It's fine to eat one in a bite, but it doesn't matter if you eat half in a bite. It's not easy to eat the stuffing. It's probably because they feel that it's good when they eat it. Since you and I are going to the capital, they can't eat the food I make and want to find a replacement. "
Wang Juan smiled and replied, "Of course. Isn't your goal to attract them and have more opportunities to send gifts to Wang Ju's residence? That's why the food you make is the most suitable for their taste.
They are used to the food you make and will feel a sense of familiarity. In the days without us, they will naturally think that it's a blessing to have a good chef who can make food that is similar to their taste.
Unfortunately, they didn't know that many of the things they were used to would be completely different if they were made by someone else. Only the most familiar people could make the most considerate meals. This was why there were so many famous chefs, but many people's favorite meals were at home.
The dishes made by famous chefs are good because they consider everyone's taste. The food made by people at home is targeted. One is for taste, while the other is for time. "
Zhang Xiaobao nodded in agreement. It was normal that the dishes he made tasted good. He had this talent. Moreover, the dishes he taught the chefs were also liked by many people.
However, he believed that if a hundred people were given the choice of eating the dishes made by the chefs of Shuiyun for free every meal, or eating the dishes made by their mothers or other family members at other times, ninety-nine of them would choose the latter.
"Just like when I sold thirteen-spice to the person who picked me up. At that time, we didn't make much money. Many people would rather buy the boxes of thirteen-spice, which were very expensive, than the cheap thirteen-spice we sold. They just liked to listen to me and my grandfather sing the song of selling thirteen-spice.
Most of the people who bought it thought that we sang well, so they bought a pack of thirteen-spice as if they were giving us a tip. In fact, we hoped that they would buy it because they thought it was good, and not because they were influenced by other thoughts.
The boxes of thirteen-spice we sold were for the general public. When we sold them, it was different. It depends on the person. If they wore ordinary clothes, I would give them normal thirteen-spice. If they wore good clothes, I would try to reduce the spicy smell. This is because people generally like to eat light food. They probably want to cook vegetables, not meat.
Moreover, if they wanted to buy more, I wouldn't sell it. If they bought it, they wouldn't be able to finish it and it would spoil. If you buy it in the supermarket, no matter how much you buy, they will sell it. They are purely trying to make money, so they lack a kind of humanistic care. "
Zhang Xiaobao thought of the past again. A trace of unique feelings appeared on his face. It was as if he had seen it lightly, but he also missed it.
"It was winter at that time. When I was in the north, I ate potatoes, radishes, cabbage almost every day. Occasionally, I would eat a bowl of wonton. Later, when I was rich, there was nothing in the world that I couldn't eat. However, my favorite food was still potatoes, radishes, and cabbage.
You should have noticed that the dishes I made tasted the best. The quality of the ingredients is important, but it is not absolute. Whether the food is good or bad does not depend on the ingredients, but on whom it is made for.
For example, the taste of the braised food in the restaurant is actually ordinary, but the steamed buns are different. This is because I know that maybe our mother can eat the same braised food. If you ask me to make the same braised food for our mother now, the taste will definitely be different. This is because food also has its own soul. "
"Okay, okay, I know you are awesome. Hehe, I have to pour cold water on you from time to time. If I let you continue talking, you will become the God of Food. What we are discussing now is what to do the day after tomorrow."
Wang Juan said to Zhang Xiaobao with a smile. In fact, she knew that the braised food that Xiao Bao made at home would definitely not taste as good as the food in the restaurant. This was because it was made for the family, so the thought put into it was completely different.
"You can't always discourage me. You have to encourage me. Otherwise, I will lose confidence. Once I lose confidence, the steamed buns won't taste good. If they don't taste good … That's right, you will only let us go the day after tomorrow, right? Then, if the taste of the steamed buns tomorrow is bad, can we not go there? "
As Zhang Xiaobao spoke, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and his eyes lit up.
Without waiting for Wang Juan to speak, he said dejectedly, "No, if the steamed buns are bad, how can we continue to let the people in the manor eat them? If they don't eat them, we won't be able to achieve our goal. I'm so worried. If only we had a group of people to help us come up with ideas. The more people, the better. "
"Okay, let's let the four fellows help us come up with ideas and see what their reactions are. Who supports going in and who is sincere in helping us? It can also be a test for Wang Gang. This is a choice for him. What do you think?"
Wang Juan was reminded by Zhang Xiaobao's words. She remembered that there were still four fellows. The four of them actually belonged to four different forces. It was amazing.
Zhang Xiaobao heard this and laughed, saying, "Wang Gang, he is really unlucky to have met us. A normal spy would not be in a situation like ours. It is nothing more than hiding, spying, and collecting information. Well, it's a good opportunity to tease them."
Once the matter was settled, a day passed as well.
At night, the door of the restaurant was closed. Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan arranged for the four fellows to clean the rented house. Then, they found a place to put the bed and told them not to rush to sleep after they finished their work. They had something to discuss when they returned to the restaurant.
The four fellows were puzzled. They did not know what the boss was going to do. It couldn't be that he felt that there were too many people and wanted to drive them out, right? One of them had already left, and there were just four of them left. When they first said that they wanted to recruit four people, they were going to recruit four people.
With doubts in their hearts, the four of them went out from the back door and cleaned the house.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan returned to their room to sleep. They would sleep as long as they could. Only when they had enough energy would they be able to do things properly. At the same time, they decided to continue tormenting the four of them so that they could sleep for at most four hours a day, which was four hours.
They wanted to see if they could persevere and how long they could last. The longer they persevered, the more important they were in their respective organizations.
The two of them slept for nearly two hours before the four fellows finally finished cleaning. Originally, it was like this. Except for Wang Gang, the other three fellows had planned to clean a random room and put the bed in it to sleep. They would clean the other two rooms the next day. This way, it would be very fast.
But Wang Gang told them, "You guys go back first. I'll clean the other two rooms myself. The boss might be resting now. He's been tired all day. When you guys get there, if the boss is sleeping, don't call him first, or else he'll be angry."
When he said that, the other three fellows secretly hated him. If they really went back, even if the boss was not sleeping, the boss would definitely ask them where Wang Gang went. How would the three of them answer? Should they say Wang Gang's original words? The boss would definitely value Wang Gang more. How considerate.
If they lied, they would wait for Wang Gang to come and ask him. Wang Gang would say the original words. Based on Wang Gang's current position in the boss's eyes, the boss would naturally believe Wang Gang. Wouldn't the three of them be in trouble?
Therefore, he had no choice but to follow along and clean up the three rooms. Almost two hours had passed by the time all three rooms were cleaned up. Once it was 4: 45 pm, who asked the shop to close so late? The sky was already dark, and they even lit oil lamps to light up the diners.
Today, there were two tables of people who were drinking non-stop. They even called for the fellows. What a scam.
However, Wang Gang knew what was going on. The two tables of people who were eating non-stop were arranged by him. Their purpose was naturally to torment them. He had been trained to be able to maintain his energy as much as possible when he had little rest. He did not believe that the other three fellows who seemed to have their own motives were also trained.
It was now 4: 45 pm, which was 10 pm. They were waiting to go to the boss to talk about something. No matter what, they had to delay the time as much as possible. Moreover, there were still dishes to be washed. If he suggested to wash the dishes, he would probably not be back after midnight.
Tomorrow morning, they would have to wake up early in the morning to see if the three of them could bear it.
Moreover, there would still be people coming over for dinner tomorrow night. They would not leave until very late. If it really did not work, the time in the morning could also be used. For example, they would wake up at 4: 45 pm to clean up the front and back courtyard. They would tell the boss that they wanted to tidy up the courtyard, place things, or plant vegetables. Then, what would the three of them do?
With different thoughts, the four of them returned to the braised food restaurant. Hearing the footsteps, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan woke up. They yawned and waved at the four of them, asking them to go to the front.
When the three fellows saw that the boss was indeed sleeping, they were very surprised. They looked at Wang Gang in puzzlement, wondering how he knew.
Wang Gang actually did not know. He was just saying. He was also puzzled. Why was the boss so sleepy that he wanted to sleep so early?
"Sit down, sit down. Don't stand there. It is tiring to stand there." Zhang Xiaobao asked the four of them to sit down. His face was still simple and honest.
The four fellows sat down on a bench opposite Zhang Xiaobao. They did not dare to sit at the same table as the boss like other people.
Wang Juan found a seat slightly further away and sat down sideways. The four fellows found that the female boss had a good figure, but there were too many pockmarks on her face. Her facial features were also well-defined. If there were no pockmarks and fewer wrinkles, she would definitely be a great beauty.
After glancing at her, the four fellows immediately turned back and looked at Zhang Xiaobao, waiting for his instructions.
"Actually … … it is not a big deal. Today, someone from a wealthy family came over. I believe you all heard what he said. He asked us to go to their house the day after tomorrow to make steamed buns. They will prepare the food for us.
I don't know which wealthy family they are from. You all have seen me and the people in my restaurant. It is already good enough to open a small restaurant. When have we ever been to a wealthy family? I heard that wealthy families have many rules. If we go there and offend them, do you think I will not be able to open my restaurant in Hangzhou?
I asked you all to come here to ask you all to tell me which wealthy family they are from. Should we go or not? If we go, who knows the rules of that family? If we don't go, how can we tell them?
Sigh! It is not easy to do business. If we don't do well, we will not make money. If we do well, we will be targeted. Everyone says that Tang Dynasty is good, but I don't think so. What do you all think? "
Zhang Xiaobao looked very distressed. He talked to the four fellows and yawned from time to time. He seemed very sleepy.
Hearing Zhang Xiaobao's words, Zhang Yi's eyes lit up. The other three frowned. One looked at Weiwei, one looked at his feet, and the other looked at the same level without blinking.
The four of them just looked at him, but no one said anything. Just as Zhang Yi was about to speak, Wang Juan said, "Stone, why are you talking so much? They are all stupid. Can they understand? If they had the ability, they would be the boss, not the assistant.
Why don't you just ask them directly if they want to go or not? Look, you've confused them with so many questions. You four, did you hear me clearly? I asked you about your business. "
"Yes, yes." The four fellows nodded. They were really annoyed by this female boss. She was too tormenting.
"Say it if you hear me clearly." Wang Juan said again.
Zhang Yi raised his head and said, "I think … …"
"Boss, I think you should sleep for a while. We will wash the dishes and then talk about it. Otherwise, when we leave, it will be your turn to wash the dishes." Before Zhang Yi could say his thoughts, Wang Gang suddenly said.
