After all, the old craftsmen like Zhou Yiyi basically came from the same village.
Chief Wang's relatives were in charge of their village, so no one dared to offend Chief Wang.
Even Monday, he lowered his head silently.
Zhou Zhou really wanted to resist, but when he thought of his sick daughter and eighty-year-old mother at home, Zhou Zhou had to swallow all his words.
Manager Wang looked around and couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
Hey, they are a bunch of stupid people who only need to be frightened a little to become obedient.
Could it be that this young master of the master's family still thinks that he is the prime minister's son who responds to everything he calls?
Hehe, he is still young as expected. If you want to overthrow him, there is no way!
When Hu Changan saw this, he couldn't help but smile coldly.
As expected, the smaller the official, the greater the official's airs.
Such a small official who is as big as sesame seeds and mung beans, still wants to threaten people under his nose? It is simply ridiculous.
Hu Changan cleared his throat and said loudly: "Everyone, if you have any ideas, please speak up."
"Don't be afraid of being threatened. I am the prince's staff and I will find a way to redress your grievances!"
What!
Everyone couldn't help but be shocked.
This young boy is actually the legendary aide to the prince?!
Doesn't that mean that he can see the prince every two days, even the current emperor?
Oh my god!
These craftsmen have never heard of such a big official position, let alone seen a real person.
Xiao Zhang was so frightened that his legs weakened and he almost lost his balance.
No, the people who ate and lived with him a few days ago turned out to be people from the Prince's Mansion!
Rounding things off, hasn’t he met someone from the royal family?
Xiao Zhang's eyes widened, as if he was floating in the clouds, and his whole body was filled with an unreal feeling.
However, the one who had the biggest reaction was Mr. Wang.
As soon as Mr. Wang finished listening to Hu Changan's words, he broke into a cold sweat and his hands couldn't stop shaking.
No way, no way, hasn't the master been demoted from Yingtian Mansion? Logically speaking, the Hu family should have no backers!
How come this young master has suddenly transformed from an ordinary dandy to a pillar of the country?
God, this is too fantasy!
It seems that he is really going to end up here today!
Encouraged by Hu Changan, everyone looked at me and me, and finally made up their minds.
Zhou Yi gritted his teeth and strode out of the queue: "Master, you don't know something!"
"We did tell Director Wang all the news at the beginning, but Director Wang told us to shut up and directly promulgated new regulations."
"We considered resisting at first, but Mr. Wang directly bought a group of people with money."
"If we can't be bribed, Mr. Wang will threaten us with his family members."
"After all, Chief Wang's relatives are minor officials in our village. We are afraid of being retaliated, so we can only swallow our anger and live like this."
"Now, almost everyone present that day has been bribed. Only Lao Xu and I are still resisting!"
The more he talked on Monday, the more excited he became, as if he wanted to vent all the grievances he had suffered these days.
After reporting to Hu Chang'an, Zhou Yi turned to look at a group of old craftsmen and shouted bitterly: "Tell me, Master, is he treating you well?"
"If you want wages, give wages; if you want vacations, give vacations."
"I can responsibly say that there will never be a master as good as the young master in Yingtian City."
"But what about you, these wolf-hearted people? How did you treat the young master?!"
“If you don’t work hard, you’ll eat everything you eat.”
"You touch your conscience, does it hurt?"
Under Zhou's roar, all the old craftsmen had nothing to say, and they all lowered their heads in shame.
They are indeed sorry for the young master.
Seeing that the truth had become clear, Hu Changan looked at the frustrated Mr. Wang and said calmly: "Mr. Wang, do you have anything else to say?"
Chief Wang is really numb this time.
But when death was imminent, he still wanted to struggle.
The current headmaster Wang has long lost his fake honest smile, and said with ferocious eyes: "Young Master, even though they said so, you can't convict me based on the words of these craftsmen!"
"I was indeed not there that day, and I don't know what your instructions were, Master."
"I built this soap workshop from scratch. There is no credit but hard work."
"If you, Master, expel me from this soap workshop, I believe that some of the other managers in Yingtian City will be interested in the soap making process."
At the end of the day, Mr. Wang was already in a state of despair.
At this time, Manager Chen couldn't bear it any longer, and fell to his knees with a plop, crying towards Hu Chang'an: "Master, it's my old servant who is sorry for you!"
"I only thought that this man named Wang was an honest man, so I sent him to help the young master. Who knew that this man named Wang turned out to be a villain who didn't mean what he said."
"I have caused the young master to suffer such a big loss. The old servant is guilty!"
Manager Chen is really ashamed of himself.
He has known Xiao Wang for more than ten years, and he regards Xiao Wang, a diligent young man, as his son.
During the holidays, the old wife at home would prepare a meal or newly made clothes for Xiao Wang.
Even Manager Chen's own son would sometimes be jealous of Xiao Wang's treatment.
But who could have imagined that the young man who was honest and courteous in front of him would look like this behind his back!
What's even more annoying is that the young master has clearly discovered Mr. Wang's illegal behavior, and the first thing he did was not to repent, but to threaten the young master to pass on the secret recipe for making soap!
Manager Chen was heartbroken and wished he could cover his face and run away from this sad place overnight.
Seeing that Steward Chen's white beard was trembling in anger, Hu Changan sighed and said comfortingly: "It's okay, Steward Chen, get up."
"You just took a wrong look this time and recognized the wrong person."
"Just be more careful next time and don't think too much of everyone."
"Yes, young master." After hearing this, Manager Chen wiped his eyes and stood up, feeling great pain in his heart.
When Manager Wang saw Manager Chen like this, he felt uncomfortable.
After all, after being together for so many years, we still have feelings for each other.
However, after thinking over and over again, Mr. Wang finally abandoned the remaining conscience in his heart.
Oh, love is just a piece of wool, the real money is the real money.
Hu Changan sighed slightly when he saw Chief Wang's unrepentant look.
It seems that some people paid incorrectly after all.
However, Hu Changan is not too worried about the leakage of soap making methods.
Anyway, it was only a matter of time before the soap-making recipe spread.
With so many people in the workshop, Hu Changan couldn't possibly watch them all 24 hours a day.
Some craftsmen cannot resist the temptation and betray their masters. This will definitely happen.
