Zhang Yan quickly nodded respectfully. “Everything has been prepared according to the master’s request. I just don’t know where there are still flaws.”
“If there’s a mistake, you should be the first to know.” Chu Heng’s strictness scared Zhang Yan.
“Master, I’m sure there’s nothing wrong,” Zhang Yan said fearfully.
He gritted his teeth and said this. In fact, he had done everything according to Lu Chuan’s request. He was very sure that there was no mistake.
However, he had always been used to speaking halfway, which was to avoid being caught by the employer, so as to avoid being severely punished because of the employer’s neglect.
However, it was obvious that this new master was different from the ones he had served before. Although the monthly salary was not small, it was more rigorous.
He did not even dare to think about what would happen if he made a mistake.
“In the future, if you have done well, then you have done well. If you haven’t done well, then you haven’t done well. If you still want to hide your words from me, then you don’t have to stay.” Chu Heng picked up the pricing book and glanced at it. Then, he put it down calmly. He placed his finger on one of the columns and tapped lightly. “Here, the price of the New Policy Discussion should be increased by 200 copper coins in three days.”
“Yes, Master. I understand.” Zhang Yan’s body trembled a few times. Seeing that his mistake had been found, a hint of bitterness flashed across his eyes. It seemed that the new master could not be fooled casually.
Although he had never thought of fooling around, if he accidentally made a mistake…Sigh…
“Husband, the auspicious time is almost here.” Ye Muyu reminded him gently.
Chu Heng’s expression softened a little. He nodded gently and turned around with her, walking towards the door.
Lu Chuan did not leave. After receiving Ye Muyu’s signal, he stood in front of Zhang Yan.
“Zhang Yan, Master just said that you made a mistake. Do you think it was the wrong price?” Lu Chuan asked directly.
Zhang Yan’s body trembled and he lowered his head respectfully. “How would I dare? This is indeed my mistake. I dare not shirk responsibility.”
“Zhang Yan, Master is saying that if you still hide anything from Master in the future, that will be where you are wrong.”
“As for the price being wrong, as long as it is not a deliberate betrayal, it is not a big deal.”
“Do you understand?” After Lu Chuan reminded him, he did not wait for him to answer. Instead, he said, “Zhang Yan, think about it. You will understand what kind of person he is if you spend more time with him. You will not regret it.”
Zhang Yan raised his head in shock. A thoughtful look flashed across his eyes. He was a little surprised by what Lu Chuan said.
Lu Chuan was Chu Heng’s closest bodyguard and was someone he trusted.
As for him, he had just joined the Chu family. Even though he had been the shopkeeper for more than ten years, he was still a newcomer in the Chu family. Naturally, he could not compare to Lu Chuan’s status.
Since the other party said so, it meant it was Chu Heng’s intention.
Zhang Yan was shocked.
He suddenly realized that he had almost misunderstood his master’s meaning just now.
If this continued, he would have to leave.
However, he had already returned to his hometown to develop. His parents, wife, and children were all here. If he did not seize this opportunity, he was afraid that his family’s life would fall into hardship in the future. If he was asked to go home and farm, he would not be willing.
Understanding this point, Zhang Yan quickly corrected his attitude and pondered over Chu Heng’s words again. The more he understood, the more likely the new master wanted absolute lovalty-
Zhang Yan did not dare to delay and quickly went out to help.
Fifteen minutes before the auspicious hour…
The relatives of the old residence came one after another. Xie Yu and Du Heng arrived one after the other..
