After rebirth, I seduced the abstinent Marquis and became the white moonlight

Chapter 15 Punishing Diao Nu
Shen Ning was unaware of her sister's situation and was focused on helping her mother run the family business. However, neither of them had ever opened a shop and knew nothing about doing business. The fact was just as Shen Hong had said, they ran into obstacles everywhere.

Take the restaurant opened by the Shen family in the capital, for example. After Zhong Wanqing took over, the business plummeted. She went there twice, but the manager treated the guests negatively both times, saying that they couldn't get any food.

Customers who went there either had to wait for a long time before their food was served, or simply left in anger because they couldn't get any food. As a result, the restaurant's reputation was naturally affected.

More importantly, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Almost all the managers of the Shen family shop are uncooperative. If this continues, the income will not be enough to make ends meet. Naturally, Shen Hong has plenty of reasons to ask Zhong Wanqing to hand over the management power.

Shen Ning was furious after hearing this: "This is too much, isn't this bullying? I want to see how tough the steward is that he doesn't even listen to the master's words."

She rushed to the restaurant and found that the waiters were all gathered in a corner playing cards. None of them greeted the customers. Those who came in to eat just took a look at the door and left.

Shen Ning walked straight forward and kicked over the card table where several people were playing cards. He did not hide his anger at all: "You are all idle and have nothing to do!"

The sudden change startled everyone. They looked at each other, and then looked at Shen Ning at the same time.

The man closest to her reacted first. He looked around her face and saw her white teeth and red lips, beautiful like a flower bud waiting to bloom. He squinted his eyes, smacked his lips and said, "Where did you come from, little girl? You're in need of a man, right? Do you want me to serve you well?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Ning picked up the teacup on the table and smashed it on the man's head. After all, he was young, and even though he was mentally prepared, his body was still shaking with anger: "Get out of here, you are the one in charge."

The man who was beaten covered his forehead with his hands, his face covered in blood, and lay on the ground wailing. Seeing this, the others also restrained their expressions, stood up together and approached Shen Ning.

"Who the hell are you?"

"Looking for death, right?"

Shen Ning was angry just now and didn't feel scared, but now seeing the posture of this group of people...

She quickly took two steps back and shouted, "Someone come!"

As soon as he finished speaking, several burly guards approached, formed a human wall in front of Shen Ning, and drew their swords.

Although the people working in the restaurant are all men, they are usually lazy, fat, and short. They are completely incomparable to the guards brought by Shen Ning.

Shen Ning couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she had been careful before coming and brought Si Yan's people with her.

During the standoff between the two parties, a tall and thin old man came down from upstairs and said hurriedly: "The boss is coming, why didn't you tell us in advance so that we can prepare."

Shen Ning recognized this man. He had worked for the Shen family for many years and was in charge of many shops in the capital.

Yuan Gui glared at the person behind him as he spoke: "You tactless person, get out of here."

Looking at the situation, those who were so arrogant before are now like quails, walking towards the kitchen with their eyes and noses watching their noses.

Shen Ning snorted coldly, "Wait, who said let them go? Shopkeeper Yuan is blatantly protecting his subordinates." Yuan Gui stroked his beard and said with a smile, "How could that be? It's wrong for them to play cards together. I'll just deduct their monthly salary. It's not worth your anger."

Shen Ning's face was slightly cold, and he said bluntly: "They didn't just play cards, they also insulted me. I was in front of them today and they treated me like this. Who knows how they treat customers normally? No wonder the business in the store is not good."

Yuan Gui straightened his back and smiled even more: "I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding here. These guys have been with me for many years. They are kind and honest. They would never do what you said."

Seeing that he was being hypocritical, Shen Ning asked loudly, "Can I lie to you?"

Yuan Gui frowned in embarrassment, thought for two seconds and came up with an idea: "Why don't you tell me what they said just now? If it's wrong, I will definitely teach them a lesson."

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Ning clenched her back teeth. She felt sick just by hearing the dirty words once, so how could she say them again? This person must have said them on purpose because he was sure that she would not repeat them.

Yuan Gui raised his eyebrows towards the person behind him, and the two people exchanged glances. The man who had just teased Shen Ning smiled smugly and looked at her again, his face greasy and his expression obscene.

Seeing Shen Ning remained silent, Yuan Gui continued, "Also, you can't blame the guys for the bad business. If customers don't come in, we can't go out to attract customers. Before, everyone was in charge of everything from purchasing food to customizing dishes. Now, we are also helpless without rice."

Shen Ning knew clearly that this person was just shirking responsibility. Even if Ji Jinzhi was the manager in the past, it would be impossible for her to monitor all the shops one by one. It was up to the shopkeepers to do it themselves. What he said now was just to embarrass her deliberately and make them back off.

Yuan Gui glanced at her sideways and complained in his heart: You little girl, you still want to fight with him, go home and cry to your mother.

Although Shen Ning was angry, she was not as fragile as he thought. In her previous life, when her family was broken up and her loved ones died, she managed to survive. They were just a bunch of stubborn slaves. Now the general's mansion has not fallen, and she, the wife of a first-rank general and the young lady of the Shen family, cannot control them.

She glanced at the people opposite her and the mess on the table. She ignored Yuan Gui's pretense and pointed directly at the man who had just spoken foul language: "It's him, slap him in the face. In addition, all the clerks who are sneaky and stealing will be punished with thirty strokes of the cane and then sent to the government."

As soon as these words came out, Yuan Gui's face changed immediately, and he asked in a cold voice: "Where did you get these words from? Madam, you want to punish the guys with trumped-up charges as soon as you come here, but you think that I, the manager, am not doing enough? If that's the case, I'd rather not do this job!"

He has trained a lot of people over the years. If he really leaves, he will take many people with him. By then, the Shen family's business will become an empty shell, and no one can bear this responsibility.

But he didn't know that this was exactly what Shen Ning wanted.

Shen Ning said calmly, "They cursed and stole food from the store. Everyone saw it. Who dares to argue? As for you, old man, you can do it if you want. If you don't want to do it, get out. Do you think I care about you?"

Over the years, Yuan Gui has become an old man in the Shen family. Wherever he goes, people bow and scrape to him. Even Shen Hong respects him. When has he ever been treated like this? He glared at Shen Ning and pointed at him: "You..."

Shen Ning said first: "If you dare to scold me, I will slap you in the face. Think carefully before you speak."

"By the way, bring out all the account books. I need to check the accounts. If I find anything fishy, ​​you will be brought before the authorities."

Yuan Gui's beard trembled with anger: "Okay, if it's yours, I'll give it to you. Let's see what happens!"
