    At this moment, under the pressure of Liu Wenyang's torch-like eyes, the little boy Mingyue could no longer resist this power, and knelt down with a "pop" and said: "No matter what others say or think of the young master, you are my great benefactor!  I will never be able to repay your kindness to this villain for the rest of my life!" "Okay, why do you always kneel on the ground Remember, there is gold under your knees, don't kneel down randomly again, you know?" Liu Wenyang said with a smile.  .  "Hehe, when I die, I will kneel to my parents, and then I will only kneel to you, young master! I won't kneel to the rest of you even to death!" As she spoke, Tong Mingyue stood up with a smile.  "You, your mouth is as slick as the snot you used to have!" Liu Wenyang laughed and cursed, and then said: "You just said that the employees asked me to increase labor, otherwise they will quit working collectively! Haha, what a premeditation.  , What a threat!" Liu Wenyang sneered twice, and then said: "It's a pity that they only see that the business here is getting better and better, but they don't see how tired I am to expand this business. They only think about thirty cents a day!  The money is too little, but I never thought that I couldn¡¯t even earn three cents before!¡± ¡°As the saying goes, people¡¯s hearts are like snakes swallowing elephants! I didn¡¯t believe this before, but now you let those guys take pictures!  Ask yourself, besides me, who takes care of food, housing, and living here and earns 30 cents a day, who else would hire them? Who else would support them, except me, Liu Wenyang, who is willing to spend so much money to support so many of them?  I think I am great, and I can¡¯t do business without them. As long as I spread the word, there will be a lot of people rushing to do their work!¡± The little boy Mingyue didn¡¯t expect Liu Wenyang¡¯s words to be so harsh, and he was too scared to act recklessly!  When he spoke, he was no longer as cunning and tactful as before.  After Liu Wenyang spoke, he sat down again, picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea: "Okay, just pass on what I just said word for word. If any of them wants to leave, let him get out immediately."  ! Our Liu family will never hire anyone in the future! As for other people, I will send red envelopes during the Chinese New Year But first of all, you have to work hard for me, don¡¯t be lazy and try your best to sell all those Feng Shui items to me.  ! Since they despise the thirty cents, then give me a commission of three cents per piece. It depends on their ability to sell more or less! " Listening to Liu Wenyang's words, Tong Mingyue couldn't help but secretly sighed,  He said in his heart that those hired workers were also very ungrateful, and this time they shot themselves in the foot.  Originally, they were charging thirty pennies a day, which was like pie-in-the-sky wealth, but they were not satisfied. Instead, they angered the young master, and now they are paid on a piece-by-piece basis. I don¡¯t know how much saliva and foam they have to spend to earn another three cents.  Ten articles!  "Stop sticking your tongue out! It makes me, your young master, seem mean" Liu Wenyang glared at him, and then said seriously: "Mingyue, you have to remember that if you read more books, you will understand more things.  , when you understand the truth, you will be able to distinguish right from wrong. When the time comes, you will understand that there are actually many choices in life, and you will not be as ignorant as these people!" Seeing that the young master wants her to study, Mingyue couldn't help but said happily: "Thank you, young master.  Chengquan, I have actually wanted to study for a long time" "Oh, really? Do you know how to read?" "I learned some at the Chenghuang Temple before, but I don't know much about it," Mingyue scratched her head and said embarrassedly.  "It doesn't matter. If you don't know much, just learn slowly. You can browse the books in my study at will. If you have any questions, just ask me!" Liu Wenyang said very kindly.  The little boy Mingyue's eyes suddenly turned red and she shed tears. With a "pop" sound, she knelt down again and said, "Wow, Master, you are so good to me! I will never forget your greatness in this life."  En Da De!" After saying that, he banged his head.  Seeing this situation, Liu Wenyang was dumbfounded and thought to himself, isn¡¯t it just for you to read and write? Why are you crying so much?  !  Liu Wenyang didn't know that very few poor people in this era could read and write. Reading and literacy to take the imperial examination were all matters of a scholarly family or a wealthy family. Children from poor families like Tong Mingyue simply couldn't do it.  No chance to go to school to read.  Therefore, when Liu Wenyang said that he would teach Mingyue how to read and write, it was a great favor. Of course, Mingyue was filled with gratitude.  "Okay, don't kneel or kowtow anymore! Stand up and I'll teach you an idiom first!" After Liu Wenyang finished speaking, he picked up a pen and wrote four big characters on the paper, and then said to the little boy Mingyue, "  Remember how to write these four words, and also try to figure out its meaning figure it out carefully! " The little boy Mingyue looked at the four words with curiosity - - " left the hall, according to Liu Wenyang's meaning, the little boy said:  Mingyue did things neatly. First she took the "price list" outside the gate where customers gathered and found a conspicuous place.Then he went directly to the backyard and delivered Liu Wenyang's words word for word to the employees who were waiting for the news.  Those hired workers were originally idle people on the streets of Taohua Town. They usually had nothing to do and their income was unstable.  Liu Wenyang hired them to sell Feng Shui accessories only because of their eloquence.  However, these people are not the kind of guys who are content with their lives. Among them, the local gangster "Red-eyed Asan" is the most greedy. He thinks that he only gets thirty cents a day for all his hard work, so he will  Those companions got entangled and gathered to make trouble, hoping that Liu Wenyang would surrender.  In their view, the success of the Liu family¡¯s Feng Shui jewelry business is all due to themselves. Without their eloquent friends, who can talk the dead back to life, the Liu family¡¯s business would never be better.  Therefore, after making the request, the red-eyed Ah San stepped on the chair with one leg, shaking his leg and picking his teeth, waiting for the child Mingyue's reply.  But no one expected that the little Tong Mingyue¡¯s reply shocked them.  Young Master Liu doesn¡¯t care about them at all!  And he also said, if you don¡¯t want to do it, just get out! ???????????????????????? From now on, the payment will be calculated on a per-piece basis, and only three cents will be commissioned per piece!  The red-eyed Ah San's legs stopped shaking and his teeth stopped picking. He spat and asked the little boy Mingyue: "Did your young master really say that?" The little boy nodded his little head, then put his hands on his hips and said, "Of course.  , What's going on, who of you is willing to do it and who is not willing to do it, decide quickly!" Red-eyed Ah San didn't expect that even a little book boy could be so arrogant. He couldn't help but get angry, but the person next to him who was incited by him had already lost his mind!  , asked him: "Third brother, what should I do?" Red-eyed Asan said: "What are you afraid of! This is all a trick used by the man named Liu. As long as we resign together, he will definitely give in!" "But what if someone else  What should I do if I don't give in? " "What should I do? The worst thing is, I won't do it!" "No, Third Brother, it's almost the New Year, and our family of five still depends on me for food and drink!  Come on, new people will be hired right away!¡± ¡°Yes, many people are eager for this job!¡±¡­ Everyone was talking so much that red-eyed Ah San had no idea.  But before he could make up his mind, the little boy Mingyue ordered someone to take his bed roll, then threw it on the ground and said, "Let's go! This is your wages!" and threw a handful of copper coins on the ground.  .  "What do you mean?" The red-eyed Ah San was dumbfounded. Could it be that before he could tell his brothers to disperse, they would kick him out first?  !  "It's not interesting. We don't need people like you in Liu Mansion! From now on, don't wander around anymore! Take the money and get out!" The little boy Mingyue held out her chest and belly. Although she looked childish, she didn't know anyone at the moment.  If you dare to regard him as a child whose hair has not yet grown, he is like a general with the power of life and death.  The red-eyed Ah San finally understood that he was fired, and it was the kid in front of him who fired him!  Those employees who originally wanted to make noises with the red-eyed Ah San, retracted their necks. The guys who were originally clamoring also shut up and became mute. They looked at the scene in front of them one by one, looking at the fired Brother Ah San, their eyes  It was full of pity Red-eyed Ah San's face changed again and again, and then he shouted: "Brothers, everyone, let's go, we quit!" But¡ª¡ªno one moved, some  He even took a few steps back to keep his distance.  Those brothers who used to call each other "Brother Asan" collectively remained silent.  The red-eyed Ah San didn't expect these guys to be so unloyal. He suddenly turned his head and said to the kid Mingyue: "I want to see Master Liu, I want to see Boss Liu! You have no right to fire me!" Mingyue raised her little head,  "What a heck! Come here, kick him out!" Some of the employees wanted to change their image to please the boss, and some of them couldn't get used to Ah San, so they immediately  Three or four men stood up, picked up Ah San, took his bedroll and threw him outside.  At this moment, the red-eyed Ah San no longer pretended to be the boss, and begged: "Mingyue, I was wrong, please give me a chance! Master Mingyue, Master Mingyue! Please!" The little boy Mingyue was unmoved at all.  It wasn't until Ah San was thrown out that he put his hands on his hips, stared at the frightened employees, and said: "If any of you still want to leave Liu Mansion, please leave as soon as possible and don't cause any more trouble! My young master is not free.  I don't care about you, but Mingyue pays close attention to you, you??If anyone keeps making noises, then the red-eyed Ah San just now will be your fate!  " Being glared at by Mingyue, the group of people suddenly felt guilty. They all put on smiles and said: "We will definitely work hard and never cause trouble again!  Haha, brother Mingyue, walk well, be careful of the slippery road" Looking at the flattering faces of these people, Mingyue suddenly remembered the four-character idiom that Master Liu taught her just now - those four words are -  ¡ª¡ªKill the chicken to scare the monkey! ! !  ! )
