Chapter 122 Goodbye Young Master Jing
Chapter 122 Goodbye Young Master Jing
Li Yuer looked up and said, "It's because they do a good job!"
Li Yuer looked at Li Erlang and said, "What task did I assign you just now?"
Li Erlang answered casually: "To attract customers."
"Then you did it?"
“Don’t I have any customers?”
"Aren't those customers of Jiaque'er your customers? You are such a big guy, and you just stand there and look at them, right?"
"I……"
Li Erlang was speechless. He wanted to refute, but he felt that what Li Yuer said made sense.
Li Yuer looked at Shitou again. He couldn't let an honest man go, so he said, "Do you remember the task assigned to you before, Brother Shitou?"
Shitou understood the truth and admitted his mistake: "I know. It was my fault that I didn't pack the oil lamp for Jiaque in time."
Li Yu'er was quite satisfied with Shitou's attitude of admitting his mistakes, but she added: "You didn't help Jia Que'er pack the bags. That was your own job. Jia Que'er helped you pack the bags. The money you were fined was to punish you for your mistakes and to reward those who made contributions."
Li Yu'er looked at Li Laosan again, and Li Laosan showed a pleading expression on his face: Yu Baoer, the brothers are all watching us, please give your uncle some face.
Of course, the person Li Yuer would least give face to is Li Laosan, because he had betrayed her trust and respect.
Because Li Laosan was the oldest and had the highest seniority, she gave the supervisory job to him rather than his brother.
"Uncle San, Uncle San, which is more important, face or making money?"
Li Laosan quickly said, "They are all important."
Li Yuer shook her head in disagreement, "No, it's making money that's important, because only when you have money can you have face. Otherwise, if you're so poor that you can't even afford to wear pants, how can you have face?"
Back then, when Li Yuer first traveled through time, wasn't the Li family just a pair of fine cotton pants that the brothers took turns wearing?
It's only been a few days since you've recovered, have you forgotten your roots?
The sufferings we have experienced are not to be forgotten, but to be used to inspire the future.
Li Yuer continued, "Uncle San, you are the supervisor, their leader. If they don't do their job well, you are most responsible because you didn't supervise them well."
Li Laosan seemed to have his throat strangled and could not utter a word of rebuttal. In his heart, he had already realized his mistake. He had betrayed Li Yuer's trust in him and also betrayed the trust of his brothers.
Li Yuer was right. He was so poor that he couldn't even afford to wear pants. He couldn't lead his brothers to earn money and live a good life. He had already lost face.
"Yu Baoer, punish me, any amount is fine, I was wrong."
Seeing that he sincerely admitted his mistake, Li Yuer naturally did not pursue the matter further and said, "I punished you to make you do your job well, not for the sake of punishment. So, this matter is over. You must behave well next time!"
After explaining the reason, Li Yuer encouraged the morale and said, "Okay, brothers, cheer up, sell the remaining oil lamps, and let's go to Zhaoji to eat big meat noodles and cut two pounds of pork belly!"
"Okay! Pork belly, here I come!"
Just as Jia Que'er was about to shout out his wares, he saw a young man in gorgeous clothes appear in front of him and was immediately stunned.
The visitor wore a jade crown with a large sapphire on it that sparkled brightly.
He wore a light blue brocade robe with a white fox fur coat on the outside and a jade pendant inlaid on the gold-embroidered belt around his waist.
At just one glance, Li Erlang felt a little ashamed of himself.
The transparent green was pure and clear without a trace of impurities, but Li Erlang felt that it was like the scorching sun in June. Looking directly at it burned his eyes.
He felt a little sad in his heart, but also somewhat fortunate that he did not buy the white jade belt that day, otherwise he would have to find a crack in the ground to crawl into today in embarrassment.
That is clearly a replica of the belt in front of you!
It's him!
Li Yuer was startled and her eyes stayed on him for a moment before she turned her attention to the old man selling candied haws.
She was not sure whether the other party had investigated the last incident, how much they had investigated, and why she suddenly appeared in an inappropriate place.
Li Erlang also recognized the person coming. He avoided his gaze and quietly moved behind Datou, pretending to tidy up the wicker box.
Li Yuer's mind was spinning rapidly. What was the purpose for the precious young master of the Wan family, the only son in the family for generations, to come to such a mixed market?
Are you here to settle accounts with them?
He has power and influence, so why not just take action directly?
Could there be some other agenda? They already had the oil lamp, what else was there to plot against?
Or is it just a coincidence?
Young Master Jing took note of the expressions of the few people.
It seems that you have recognized me. Why, do you still want to pretend that you don’t know me?
Where did your courage go when you teased me and asked me to borrow a knife for you?
Young Master Jing gave Zhaocai a look, and Zhaocai immediately ran away happily.
Young Master Jing: ...
Jinbao: I don’t know him, I don’t know him.
Since his companion was so stupid, Jinbao had to go by himself. He walked to the stall, picked up an oil lamp, and slowly tasted it in his hand. His critical eyes were self-evident.
At this time, Jia Que'er had already reacted, and hurriedly stepped forward to introduce enthusiastically: "My dear, don't miss it if you pass by. You've come to the right place to come to our stall! I'm not bragging to you, our craftsmanship is an exclusive secret recipe. The paintings and words are all painted, they don't fade or get wet, they're crystal clear and easy to take care of. If they get dirty, you just need to wipe them lightly, and there will be no trace at all. Isn't it amazing?"
Young Master Jing glanced at the pattern on the oil lamp. It was indeed unique. Li Yuer did have some skills.
Seeing the brightly colored paintings, Young Master Jing's eyes immediately lit up. It was novel! I like it!
But he suppressed his curiosity and remained expressionless.
Damn Li Yuer, he has come up with something new to whet my appetite.
This time, don't be fooled easily no matter what I say.
At this time, Zhaocai came running back happily, holding a throne in his hands.
Young Master Jing: ...
Jinbao: I don’t know him, I don’t know him.
Are you afraid that the young master is not ostentatious enough?
The people around cast curious glances and gradually gathered around, but did not dare to get too close.
Because in addition to the two men Zhaocai Jinbao, there were four or five strong men guarding Young Master Jing. They all had knives on their waists and were looking around vigilantly.
Young Master Jing coughed lightly and could only sit down.
Jinbao played with the oil lamp in his hand, neither saying anything good nor bad, with his eyelids drooped and he said nothing, but he gave people a sense of pressure.
Li Yuer complained in her heart: Rich and scheming boys like to play this game, isn't it just a psychological tactic, taking advantage of the poor by their aura.
When your sister Yu turns over a new leaf and becomes rich, believe it or not, I will kill you with her money!
House Sparrow was so exhausted from talking that he started to feel nervous when he saw the other party was indifferent.
Was it because he was exaggerating too much? Or was it because their oil lamps were not as good as those in the shops and could not catch the eyes of the nobles?
Even so, he didn't dare complain.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little weird. Even the customers who were selecting oil lamps at the stall noticed something was wrong. They put down their things and quietly slipped away.
Li Yuer walked over, her big black and white eyes staring straight at Jinbao, and said innocently: "Big brother, do you want to buy an oil lamp?"
Before Jinbao could speak, Young Master Jing spoke first.
"Yu Bao'er, right? Don't you know whether I want to buy an oil lamp or not?"
Li Yu'er didn't expect the other party to call out her name directly, but why did he call her Yu Bao'er, and on what basis did he call her Yu Bao'er.
What's the point of revealing half of your cards?
