Chapter 706 A Great Satisfaction

Shu Yu: ...

Shu Yu felt somewhat ashamed. She hadn't expected Wang Changdong to not only use her as an example, but also to praise her so highly in front of everyone.

Although she felt it was well-deserved, she could at least have been told in advance so that she could be mentally prepared, adjust her expression, and prepare her speech accordingly, so as to inspire others together.

She can do this very well.

Fortunately, despite her inner turmoil, she remained calm on the surface, smiling as she faced the astonished expressions of the crowd.

Especially those guys from Team Five, look at them, look at them, their jaws are practically dropping to the ground, it's just... so satisfying.

Shu Yu glanced at them lightly. She already knew that Ma Lu was deliberately misleading them, making them think that they had received the same reward as everyone else.

No wonder even the Shu family didn't know; they were so frightened their faces turned pale.

"Officer, what did you just say? You said Lu Shuyu has become the manager?"

Just as Wang Changdong was getting into his speech, he was suddenly interrupted, which made him a little unhappy. He looked at the leader of the fifth team who had been speaking and said, "What's wrong? Didn't I explain it clearly? Do I have to repeat myself?"

"No, no, but what gives her the right?"

Ma Lu gave him a cool sidelong glance. "Are you deaf? Didn't the officer just say that because Miss Lu is literate, she killed a tiger and was even commended by the governor, what's so strange about her becoming the steward?"

Wang Changdong nodded. "Exactly. Why do you keep questioning me if you can't hear me clearly?"

Upon hearing Ma Lu speak, the leader of the fifth team turned around sharply and glared at him fiercely, "You clearly told me that day that her reward would be about the same as yours."

“That’s right, we all get two days off, five catties of grain, and one tael of silver. Isn’t that about the same?” The man behind Ma Lu said with a smile, gloating.

"You..." The leader of the fifth team almost fainted from anger.

They were all tricked by the third team. Those bastards actually kept such a big thing a secret.

Lu Shuyu is in charge? She actually became a manager? This is simply outrageous! How could she be so powerful?

Not only were the members of Team Five filled with resentment, but the others also had mixed feelings.

They recalled that when Shu Yu first arrived, none of the teams were willing to accept them and were eager to push her away. This almost made the police officer unhappy.

They had ridiculed the two girls for forming the ninth team, thinking they'd be lucky to even catch a pheasant. They even predicted they wouldn't last more than a few days in the mountains, would run away in fear, and find another job.

Unexpectedly, in less than half a month, they rose to prominence and stood above them.

They were now filled with regret. If only they had known this would happen, they would have taken the person into their own team. They really let the three teams get away with it.

Looking at everyone's expressions, Shu Yu could guess most of what was going on even if they didn't say anything.

Don't they even consider whether they have the ability or the courage of the three teams led by Ma Lu? If they don't, then there's no point in talking or thinking about it.

Seeing that they were all silent, Wang Changdong snorted coldly, "Do you have any other opinions?"

He glanced at the five teams, and they immediately lowered their heads and dared not utter a sound.

However, this interruption dampened Wang Changdong's enthusiasm for continuing his speech.

Seeing that it was getting late, he efficiently began to arrange things.
