Gu Yundong: “…”
Tong Shuitao: “…”
The other three people in the shop were speechless.
Wu Chong was the first to react. He suddenly looked up at Zhuangzi. “You, you’re leaving after the New Year?” Then, he pointed at Chen Jincai. “He’s here to be the shopkeeper?”
The shop assistant was very different from the shopkeeper.
The entire shop was run by the shopkeeper, and the accounts were also managed by the shopkeeper. When dealing with customers, it was also the shopkeeper, let alone the salary.
Wu Chong suddenly looked at Chen Jincai. “Are you going to be the shopkeeper of Gu’s after the new year?”
Chen Jincai sneered. “This is our shop’s business. What does it have to do with you? Hurry up and leave.”
“Didn’t I tell you? The shop assistant can’t chase the customers away, but I can.” Zhuangzi interrupted him and stuffed the food box into his hand. Then, he waved his hands. “Go, hurry up and leave. If you don’t leave, I’ll beat you with a broom.”
“Hey, you…”
Wu Chong was furious. At this moment, Jiang Bao, who was next door, also came over to help. He held two large brooms in his hands and threw them to Zhuangzi.
After that, the two of them swept Chen Yulan and Wu Chong away like they were sweeping trash.
Wu Chong was still a little indignant. He still wanted to ask if Chen Jincai would be the shopkeeper of Gu’s after the new year.
If that was the case, wouldn’t he have offended him for nothing?
For a moment, he regretted it. It was Chen Jincai’s fault for not making things clear. If he had told him earlier, the two families would not have fallen out so badly.
Chen Yulan was even more vexed. Her eldest cousin was about to become a shopkeeper. Moreover, he was the shopkeeper in the county city. He was much more dignified than the manager of the town.
She heard that Gu’s was now in the prefectural city. In that case, would Eldest Cousin still be able to go to the prefectural city in the future?
The couple had different thoughts, but neither of them could stay and talk. It really hurt when the broom hit them. Coupled with the pointing by the passers-by, the two of them quickly buried their heads and ran.
Zhuangzi snorted and returned the broom to Jiang Bao before returning to the shop.
Chen Jincai looked at him speechlessly. “Why did you tell them that I’m going to be a shopkeeper after the new year? Would they give up?”
“Won’t they know if we don’t tell them? They’ll have to know sooner or later. I might as well tell them now. At least I can give you a hand if they come again.”
Gu Yundong opened the curtain and walked out. “What Zhuangzi said makes some sense. It doesn’t matter if you say it earlier or later.”
“Boss.” Chen Jincai was a little ashamed. “I caused you trouble.”
“This isn’t trouble. Who doesn’t have a few annoying relatives? You’ve already cut ties with them, but they’re still shameless enough to come knocking on your door. This can only mean that they’re thick-skinned. However, I have to remind you in advance. You have to know this in your heart. If you really can’t resist their threats and temptations and harm the interests of Gu’s, I won’t be polite either. When the time comes, not only will you be fired, but I won’t even hire your brother either.”
Although it was a little inhumane to do so, Gu Yundong had to explain the seriousness of the matter to him.
As expected, Chen Jincai immediately put on a serious expression. “Don’t worry, Boss. Not to mention that we have cut ties now, even if we are close, I won’t do such a heinous thing.”
“That’s good.” Gu Yundong believed this. After all, Chen Jincai had reminded him that someone wanted to harm her mother.
