Chapter 141 Wanlifang
The old lady seemed to be frightened by Lin Xi's price of ten taels of silver. She didn't speak for a long time. After waiting for a long time, she asked doubtfully, "Can you really give so much?"
Lin Xi looked very serious and nodded, "Auntie, there is no need for me to lie to you. I am indeed short of people."
As she spoke, Lin Xi's eyes swept across the papers on the table beside her. She picked them up and took a look, but couldn't see any result.
Well, she had to admit that she didn't have much experience in this area.
"Take a look." Lin Xi stuffed the rice paper into Xiao Yongyan's hand.
Xiao Yongyan looked at it carefully for a while, then touched it carefully, "Good paper."
With Xiao Yongyan's approval, she felt more assured about the interest. Although she didn't understand it, Xiao Yongyan had always had the best food, clothing and other daily necessities in the capital. If he said it was good, it must be good.
Lin Xi had a plan in mind. "Your son's craftsmanship is so good. It's a waste for him to stay here. Why don't you go and work for me?"
The old lady's eyes were shining as she looked expectantly at Zhang Chengye beside her. Her son had grown up and had his own ideas. There were some things that were not something she, as a mother, could decide.
Zhang Chengye's attitude was very awkward. Lin Xi could see that he clearly wanted to come, but he was worried about something and couldn't make up his mind.
"Mom, let me think about this again." Zhang Chengye said.
The old lady was a little anxious. "Such a good job, and the boss has to take a fancy to it. What are you thinking?"
She just didn't understand. Could it be that her son couldn't even figure this out?
Zhang Chengye didn't say anything, but just looked at the old lady with complicated eyes.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the door.
"Zhang Chengye, come out! I know you are at home!"
Zhang Chengye frowned and quickly comforted his mother, "Mom, I'll go see what's going on. Don't come out."
The old lady's eyes were filled with worry, and she shed tears silently on the bed.
Lin Xi followed him out and saw dozens of big men standing in the yard of Zhang Chengye's house.
"Zhang Chengye, our contract has not yet ended. I have allowed you to stay here for a year because of your family situation. It is time for you to come back now."
Zhang Chengye gritted his teeth and said, "When I left, you burned my contract and owed me one month's salary. I am no longer a member of Wanlifang."
"Burned?" The leader sneered and took out a document with a handprint on it from his pocket. "Look at what this is?"
Lin Xi clearly saw Zhang Chengye's handprint on the document, which also stated that he had to work at Wanlifang for twenty years unless Wanlifang fired him.
"This..." Zhang Chengye was a little confused for a moment. When he left, the boss had clearly burned the documents. Where did this thing come from now?
Lin Xi could see through their tricks. "I say you guys at Wanlifang are really amazing. You didn't bring fake documents and lied to people that you had burned them, and now you bring real documents and ask them to go back."
The leader was very dissatisfied with Lin Xi's sudden appearance and said angrily, "Where did this little girl come from? What does she have to do with you? I said, you are not Zhang Chengye's new wife, are you?"
As soon as the man finished speaking, he was punched hard on the chin. Lin Xi looked carefully and saw that it was Xiao Yongyan.
The leader was suddenly beaten up. He covered his chin, unable to speak because of the pain. He tried hard to signal the others to take action with his eyes, but none of them had much tact and didn't notice anything.
Lin Xi rolled his eyes. It would be a miracle if he could get anything done with a bunch of stupid teammates.
Zhang Chengye looked at Lin Xi, "The boss of Wanlifang is quite powerful, I can't go to your place."
"Why, do you think I'm afraid of Wanlifang?" Lin Xi raised his eyebrows.
The others in the group were quite disdainful when they heard this. "I say, do you know that our Wanlifang Ke is the largest paper mill in Xucheng? Where are you from? How dare you say such outrageous things?"
"Me?" Lin Xi pointed in the direction of the village, "I'm from Taoli Village."
"Taoli Village? Brothers, does anyone know this place?"
Everyone shook their heads. They had always lived in Xucheng and naturally had never heard of Taoli Village.
"A country boy wants to poach people from Wanlifang. I think you are tired of living."
"Who said Zhang Chengye is from Wanlifang?" Lin Xi took the document from the other party slowly and tore it up in front of everyone. "If you have evidence, show it. If you don't have evidence, shut up."
No one expected that Lin Xi would be so bold as to directly tear up Zhang Chengye's contract.
"Woman, it seems you don't want to stay in Xucheng anymore!"
Lin Xi said indifferently, "Well, I don't hang out in Xucheng anyway. I'm sorry to disappoint you."
Zhang Chengye, who was standing by, didn't want to see this scene, so he said to Lin Xi, "Boss, I don't know your background, but there's really no need to offend Wanlifang because of me. What happened today is a conflict between me and Wanlifang."
Lin Xi tilted his head, "Do you have a way to solve it yourself?"
How could she not believe it? "I think you can only force your way through them, and you might end up getting beaten up."
Zhang Chengye was speechless for a moment when he was talked about. Why did this woman act like she knew him so well?
"Since I want to invite you to my place, I naturally have to show my sincerity in inviting you. The first step is to solve this trouble for you." Lin Xi said.
After hearing this, the people in Wanlifang burst into laughter. "Someone actually wants to compete with us in Wanlifang. I have never seen such a stupid person. Lin Xi, today we let you take Zhang Chengye away, which means we in Wanlifang are incompetent."
"It's really strange. I heard that Zhang Chengye has left Wanlifang for a long time. Why do you insist that he is your man? Could it be that your boss married his daughter to him?" Lin Xi said.
When they saw that Lin Xi's jokes were directed at their young lady, they immediately got angry. "What nonsense are you talking about, woman? How could my young lady fall in love with Zhang Cheng? I tell you, since the first day Zhang Chengye entered our Wanlifang, he has been our Wanlifang member."
"So domineering? Well, let's take a step back. Even if Zhang Chengye is still your man, I want to ask him, can't he choose to leave on his own?" Lin Xi asked.
According to what the master said before, Zhang Chengye has been gone for more than a year. His former employer suddenly came to him at this time, which might mean that he had encountered some trouble.
"I'm going to go to Wanlifang to discuss this matter myself." Lin Xi started to leave, dragging along Zhang Chengye, who had a dark face, and said, "Go tell your mother and leave."
Soon, she arrived at the famous Wanlifang.
The shopkeeper at the door saw Zhang Chengye coming over, and his tone was much gentler than those others, "How is your mother's health? Is she better? You said you took a long vacation to go back and take care of your mother. Maybe you are back now?"
The shopkeeper's words annoyed Zhang Chengye, "Shopkeeper Ma, it was you who wanted to drive me away in the first place."
