The big rivers and lakes that attack

Chapter 43 Losing Money and Being Stingy

In the evening, the battle was completely over. Together with three employees, Li Dao came down from Wind's Nest Castle, pulling dozens of skinny horses and carrying many weapons.

At this time, apart from the dead, there were only ruins left in Wind's Nest Castle.

The solid stone fortress was blown up by gunpowder balls and collapsed in several places, and it can no longer be inhabited. It seems that in a short period of time, there should be no more horse bandits here.

After getting off the Wind's Nest Castle, Li Dao looked up again, to a place on the castle where there was no one, and raised a middle finger with a smile.

Baizhu felt strange and couldn't help asking: "Boss, what are you looking at?"

Li Dao shook his head and said, "It's nothing, let's appreciate our achievements."

Hong Ansheng was also a little puzzled, scratched his head and said, "Boss, what do you mean by this gesture?"

"XXX."

"Boss, why are you swearing so well?"

"I'm talking about the meaning of this gesture. If you want to curse someone in the future, just make this gesture at that person."

"Oh oh oh, thank you boss for your advice."

"You're welcome, by the way, after today's battle, you have earned enough money to buy supplies for entering the ruins. When are you going to leave? I'll make a delicious meal, make some jugs of good wine, and see you off."

Suddenly hearing what he said, Hong Ansheng was slightly taken aback, and suddenly said: "If the boss doesn't say anything, I almost forgot that I earned 120 coins today."

Baizhu thought for a while, and said: "You must heal your injuries first. Although you only suffered some superficial injuries in today's battle, the medicines for the wounds cost a lot of money."

"Besides, it's good to prepare more. I've only been in Juansha Town for about ten days, and I still have time before my one-month plan. It's better to do a few more missions and earn more money. In this way, the supplies will be less expensive." You can buy more."

Li Dao hummed, nodded and said, "Hong Qi, what about you?"

Hong Ansheng said: "I think what Miss Bai said makes sense, and I'm only a third-rank now. I'm afraid I will die if I go to the ruins. It's better to practice my own ability first."

"At least you need to have fourth-grade skills like Miss Bai, so that you can have more protection. Besides, if we all leave, what will happen to your business, boss? Do you rely on Xiao Chu?"

Li Dao chuckled, and said, "Business? Don't worry, there is nothing else in Juansha Town, but there are a lot of people, but I don't like them, so there was no large-scale recruitment before."

"If I want to recruit people, I don't know how many people want to enter the 'White Camel Villa'. Don't worry, it won't delay the matter. But, I guess there should be no good business recently, and the income will not be much."

Hong Ansheng asked, "Why?"

Li Dao didn't answer, but Ye Xiaochu immediately gave the answer, wiped the sweat from his face, and said, "Because these horse thieves with a radius of hundreds of miles are almost killed now." Already."

"Even if they didn't come today, there won't be many left. The business roads will be cleared up in a short period of time. After so many people died, it will take at least two or three months to get together again."

"The horse bandits are gone, so there isn't much big business. What's left is the town's three melons and two dates, and it's not like the boss has troubles every day, so the income is not much. Is that right, boss?"

Li Dao let out a long sigh, and said rather bitterly: "Yes, speaking of it, it's really a loss for five hundred big money to do this business."

"Business is hard, life is hard, and you have to plan carefully. What, let's discuss it. Can the twenty coins promised to you later be..."

"Boss, do you want to renege on your debt?" Hong Ansheng immediately said, "This is our hard-earned money, the real hard-earned money, blood and sweat, it's unethical for you to do so."

If capitalists don't exploit your hard-earned money, can they still be called capitalists?
Li Dao said this sentence silently in his heart, and then quickly waved his hands and said: "No, no, I mean, I will give it to you a few days later, after all, I don't have a lot of money here."

Give it a few days later, then find various reasons to deduct it, and finally don't give it, work together!
Baizhu smiled and said: "Boss, you have earned a full five hundred coins. After deducting the 240 coins that Hong Qi and I paid together, you still have 260 coins left."

"And just now I vaguely heard from you, the boss, that you spent a total of two thousand dollars to build this umbrella. It can be seen that you are not short of money, boss, so why bother with us about the twenty cents?"

Hong Ansheng quickly echoed: "Yes, yes, boss, you are too stingy."

Li Dao sighed again, pretending to be sad and said: "It's because it cost a full two thousand dollars to build this umbrella, and now I still owe Boss Li a whole lot of debt."

"I hope you can understand me as a boss. Besides, I'm just saying I'm in arrears, a few days in arrears, and it's not that I won't pay. Don't you even wait for a few days?"

Ye Xiaochu quickly echoed: "Yes, yes, everyone should understand the difficulty of the boss. After all, I owe so much money, a total of two thousand cash, the boss is too difficult."

Hong Ansheng gave her a contemptuous look, and immediately put aside the idea of ​​helping her with the umbrella, and said, "You're going to become the boss's dog so soon? I've already asked, the boss is at Li Dong's house It's cash."

Li Dao was exposed by him on the spot, touched his nose in embarrassment, and shifted his gaze elsewhere.

Xiao Chu opened his big innocent eyes and asked in amazement: "What else is there? I don't know! Besides, even if the boss paid cash, it is a huge sum of money after all."

"I think the boss doesn't have a lot of money now, and he must not have much business recently. It's not easy to control your food and drink. Can't you be considerate of the boss? It's only twenty coins, Brother Seven Why bother, besides, it's not that I won't give it, it's just a few days in arrears."

Baizhu thought for a while, and said: "What Xiaochu said makes sense, there is nothing wrong with a few days in arrears."

Hong Ansheng hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Miss Bai, you've only been here for a short time, and you don't know what the boss is like. I guess I'll run out of these twenty coins after a while."

Baizhu asked strangely, "How did you say that?"

Hong Anchang sighed, and said sadly: "You must have not read the "Employee Rules" that the boss gave you, right? I and Lao Liang have learned a painful lesson in this regard. Although the boss is very polite, the rules are too strict. fine."

"Because of the strict rules, he would start withholding money whenever he encounters trivial incidents, a little by little, not much each time, but after a while, it will be gone."

Baizhu couldn't help but widen her eyes, and looked at Li Dao in surprise.

Li Dao, who was publicly executed, became more confident: "Look at what I did? Who told them not to read the "Employee Code"?"

"Then every item above is written clearly. If you do something out of line, you will naturally have to deduct money. What's the fuss?"

"It's like that time when you took a job for [-] yuan, but did a job for [-] yuan. How can you do this kind of loss-making business? I thought you were the first offender, and I paid you more, a bunch of white-eyed wolves , kindly treat it like a donkey's liver and lungs!"
