After experiencing the unjust death of his mother and his near-unjust death, Xu Ke's inner sense of the gentry has been reduced to a minimum.
When his dignity was lost and he was treated as a commodity, he even wildly imagined that if one day he could rise to the top, he would definitely take revenge on these worms who didn't know the people's livelihood, wasted on life, and ate vegetarian meals.
However, these ideas are just ideas.
Not to mention those noble elites with profound background, even the local gentry can easily control his life and death, not to mention that he is just an official slave now, from a commoner to a pariah, with an indelible mark of humiliation on his face , this life is hopeless.
However, it was bought back by the special gentleman in front of him by accident, as if opening another door to a completely different life.
I thought I was rebellious and aloof, and couldn't hear half a slander, but in fact, I was surprisingly good at talking... Of course, Xu Ke would not regard the man in front of him as harmless just because the other party had adopted his opinion several times. white rabbit.
The opponent is not only a harmless little white rabbit, but a silent, seemingly lazy and resting tiger, but in fact it is extremely dangerous.
She took her opinion only because the point he made was really useful.
Despite this, Jiang Pengji's behavior and reaction were far beyond Xu Ke's expectations.
In a more fashionable language to describe, it is probably-
The noble gentleman in front of him is different from the coquettish bitches outside, he is extraordinarily pure and unpretentious!
For example now...
He didn't understand that Lang Jun was obviously the only direct son of the Liu family's second house. He listened to other servants chatting, and the second house was very rich, so... She is a nobleman, why is she so clear about the prices of rice, grain, vegetables and fruits outside? Even remember the prices of the last few days
That's all, at most, I would like to say that Liu Langjun has an excellent memory, he will never forget it, and he will listen to it.
However... What is it like laughing and haggling with the merchants like an ordinary farmer
He was stunned when he heard the stingy bargaining technique, and he couldn't help but have the illusion that the second room of Liu Mansion was too poor to open the pot.
Not only Xu Ke was stunned, but a group of melon-eating viewers watching the live broadcast were also stunned and lost the melon in their hands.
[Auntie in the cafeteria]: The almighty anchor, even the price is so handsome!
[Lan Juyu does not give up]: Haggling or something, it feels super down-to-earth, but you didn't notice the anchor, are people going to cry
[Wujiang Pickled Cabbage]: Hahahaha, the store that was haggled by the anchor in those years and almost cried.
[I don't agree with you and hit me]: Breathe a sigh of relief, thank you that the anchor is not from this world, otherwise it would be too scary. As an old driver of a clothing store, I said that if I encountered such a difficult customer, I would lose money and vomit blood, and I would not be able to do business.
A group of spectators said that Jiang Pengji's bargaining skills were high, and although she was distressed by her strength, she still liked hearing about it and watching the excitement.
It's just that, in addition to the melon-eating audience who only hahaha, the onlookers also have Xu Ke beside them.
"Lang, Langjun is like this..." Xu Keman wanted to say that she was willing to pay for money, but this was not a good word. He was also afraid of touching the other's brow, and suddenly he was a little embarrassed and vague, "...If it is passed on by someone with a heart, It has greatly damaged Lang Jun's reputation."
A noble son of a nobleman bargained with a merchant, although he always maintained his demeanor, but it was inevitable that he would get a bad reputation when it spread.
Jiang Pengji sneered and said indifferently, "It's as if your husband and I have a reputation? Who does not know the reputation of the prodigal son of Liu's house in Hejian County? Chai rice is expensive. When these merchants saw that I was well-dressed, young, and ignorant of the world, they opened their mouths and raised a penny to ten penny. I look like a fat sheep?"
[Shoveler]: Hey, how can there be such a ferocious sheep in this world? The one who was slaughtered was obviously the shopkeeper.
As soon as this comment came out, it was instantly agreed by all the viewers who watched the live broadcast.
So true!
Xu Ke silently looked up at the sky. After the elegant gathering that day, the reputation of Langjun Baibuchuanyang did spread, but it was also accompanied by comments from the prodigal son, both praise and criticism. However, no one in the manor cared about it, and the person involved took the initiative to put this reputation on himself.
"What's more... I don't take the initiative to report my name, how do they know who I am? Even if I ask at that time, I will only say that my name is Xu Xiaoyu, and I am the book boy of Liufu Langjun." Jiang Pengji said these words, followed by At the back, Xu Ke almost stumbled and fell.
Could it be that his main task in Liu Mansion is not to accompany the study, but to help Lang Jun be blamed
After walking around with Xu Ke, Jiang Pengji asked again, "Have you written it all down?"
Xu Ke nodded. Although his memory was not as changeable and volatile as Jiang Pengji's, he still remembered it.
"That's good. In the future, you will be in charge of the purchase and purchase of the servants on the farm. You can keep an account book and note it down one by one. You must strictly control their training. There is room for any mercy. There will naturally be rewards if there are punishments, and those who perform well should also be appropriately rewarded. There are still few staff, so it shouldn’t be difficult to manage them.”
Jiang Pengji bought Xu Ke back, so that he could be the accountant, manage the internal affairs, and supervise the training of those servants by the way. According to Liu She's meaning, he will not interfere in this matter, so everything can only be groped by her.
In fact, she doesn't need anyone's finger pointing.
Before Xu Ke could answer, Jiang Pengji added, "This is your training and tempering. Talking about soldiers on paper is just empty talk. If you want to verify your own ideas, you have to put them into practice in person. The farm doesn't require you to do everything yourself, but It is absolutely necessary to be aware of it, so as not to be deceived by the people below. Don’t look at these simple purchases, there are many articles in it.”
The same thing, with different quality and different money, is hard to guarantee that no one will charge it shoddy, deduct some oil and water from it, and deceive him.
Don’t look at these things as small, but what if they were bigger and smaller
There are many doorways.
For a long time, Xu Ke didn't say a word, but instead looked at Jiang Pengji with a look of surprise, with a bit of arrogance in his eyes.
Jiang Pengji asked, "What are you looking at?"
Xu Ke felt that his three views seemed to have been reshaped, and his impression of the noble son of the nobility had also been reset.
He said gently, "Ke never thought that Lang Jun was so familiar with these common affairs."
A noble son of a noble family has a more detailed understanding of prices than he was a commoner. He knows the items and prices sold by stores, vendors, restaurants, and restaurants within a radius of several kilometers. Obviously he is the noble son who is pampered in the inner house, isn't he
"Heh, you wanted to say that I'll pay for it. Why, you changed your tone in less than half an hour?"
Xu Ke's face turned red, with some embarrassment.
