Chapter 399 New Master Bai Jinli
"It would be better if you don't want to come." Bai Jinli sat on a stool sipping tea, her tone very casual.

"???" Er Huo said that he didn't understand her attitude, and even Pan Zi was puzzled.

If those people are not willing to cooperate to come and answer, wouldn't they have to wait in vain, and it can also explain from the side that this matter is more difficult to handle?

No matter how you look at this result, it's painful, and I don't know why the madam is so calm and wanton.

But they didn't ask any more questions, they just stood there and waited quietly.

Banzhuxiang's work quickly passed, and only two people appeared in front of Bai Jinli within the specified time.

One was the man she sent out to call people before, and the other had long sharp-mouthed monkey cheeks, and lowered his head to suppress the calculation and shrewdness in his eyes, leaving only the top of his head.

Bai Jinli looked at the two of them calmly, and then asked, "What do you call them?"

"Young Li Du, under the order of Manager Zhao, is in charge of supervising the work of everyone in the tea garden today."

"The little one, Zhao Yi, is the head nurse of the manor. He was busy elsewhere just now, and came here on purpose when he heard the new master's order."

"Guard Zhao? What about others?" Bai Jinli asked.

"Back to the new master, Manager Zhao is not feeling well today and cannot come here, so I ordered the younger one to come and ask you for leave." The man named Zhao Yi replied.

"Not feeling well? Is it serious?" Bai Jinli asked with concern.

"Thank you for the new master's concern. I heard that Manager Zhao just got a cold occasionally. It's not serious. It's just that he's a bit old and his body is not as strong as the young man. So he needs to rest more, so he didn't come here."

As soon as Zhao Yi finished speaking, Bai Jinli said, "Since you are old, why should you be in charge? From today onwards, he will be dismissed. Tell him after you go back, as long as you don't die, give it to me immediately." Come here, and after handing over the matter in hand, you can pay your salary and leave."

"New master, I'm afraid this is not good. Anyway, Manager Zhao has been the manager of this tea garden for more than [-] years. There is hard work without credit. If Manager Zhao is driven out because of this, I'm afraid It will cause everyone's dissatisfaction and even a strike."

After hearing this, Bai Jinli couldn't help but snorted coldly, glanced at Er Huo and gave orders.

"Second fire, slap your mouth."

"Yes, ma'am." Erhuo stepped forward to pinch Zhao Yi's collar in two steps, and greeted him with the other hand on his face.

After all, Er Huo is a martial arts practitioner, so the strength in his hands is naturally not small, but after a few slaps, Zhao Yi's face was swollen.

"okay."

Hearing Bai Jinli's yell to stop, Erhuo let go of Zhao Yi's collar, turned around and stood back to his original place.

"If I remember correctly, you are just a short-term laborer who has signed a contract in the manor. A mere servant, who has the right to refute my words? Are you teaching me how to do things?"

"Small ones don't dare." Zhao Yi's face was burning with pain from the beating, his ears were still ringing, and a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes, but he hid it very quickly.

"Don't dare? You've already threatened me with words like strike, what else are you afraid of?" Bai Jinli smiled faintly, staring at him with a hint of coolness in his eyes.

"The new master calm down, it's the little one who said something wrong."

"Well, as long as you know your mistakes and admit your mistakes, it's not in vain for me to teach you a lesson. Do you still have any objections to my instructions just now?" Bai Jinli raised an eyebrow and asked him.

"No, I'll go and convey the original words to Guanshi Zhao." Zhao Yi replied with his head down.

"Go ahead, I'll give you half a stick of incense. No matter how sick he is, even if he is to be lifted, I will lift him here."

"Yes." Zhao Yi nodded, turned around and left quickly.

Li Du at the side silently watched Zhao Yi's leaving figure, thinking in his heart that the arrogant woman in front of him might be doomed.

She dared to offend the person Zhao Guanshi valued the most, and she was so merciless, she was really young and vigorous.

You must know that this Nuoda manor has been in the hands of Guanshi Zhao for more than 20 years, and no one knows this manor better than Guanshi Zhao.

He firmly holds the handle and lifeline of everyone in the manor, and is extremely capable of fooling people.

This new master looks like a young man who has never seen the world, so what if his attitude is so tough now?

After being fooled by Manager Zhao for a while, after she left, wouldn't Manager Zhao have the final say here?

Besides, she only brought a few people with her when she came. After all these years, Guanshi Zhao has a lot of people who can use him.

Moreover, he gained a lot of benefits by relying on the manor to fill his own pockets, and he used those benefits to gain a lot of support for himself.

In the whole manor, Guanshi Zhao seemed to be the emperor of the manor, and he had the final say on everything.

As for the other seven or eight people who are also in charge of the tea garden, they were also promoted by Manager Zhao, and they must have followed his orders.

Otherwise, when the new master asked him to call someone over, he would only send Zhao Yi over to investigate the situation, and the others would not move, and would just wait and see.

He even thought that if Bai Jinli went too far, he might be beaten by Manager Zhao.

"Let me ask you, how many people are there in this manor?"

Bai Jinli didn't know that Li Du was full of thoughts at the moment, she asked calmly.

"If I remember correctly, there should be more than 60 people in total."

"Well, go and call everyone over here."

"Yes." After hearing Bai Jinli's order, Li Du had already vaguely guessed.

It seems that this new master is planning to call other people over.

No, he had to say hello to those people in advance.

Seeing Li Du also leave, Bai Jinli continued to sit there leisurely drinking tea and eating snacks.

"Master, these two people are not good at first glance, why don't you let the little one go over and call someone? What if he threatens others in private..." Er Huo couldn't help but asked as he looked at Li Du's leaving back .

"I'm afraid he won't do it."

"Um..." Er Huo.

Well, the master is worthy of being the master, and his thinking is different, which is incomprehensible.

He might as well just shut up and stand aside quietly watching.

"Xiao Chiwang, if I remember correctly, one of Bai Meng's recent studies is tea art."

"I'm going to the tea garden for a stroll, and I'll be back in a while."

After hearing Bai Jinli's words, Xiao Chiwang ran towards the tea garden after finishing speaking.

Since Bai Meng is learning tea art recently, it naturally means that she needs tea to practice.

It just so happened that they were in the tea garden now, so they could go over and get some new tea for Bai Meng to bring back.

"Come back after Banzhuxiang Kung Fu, I have something to tell you to do." Bai Jinli said to Xiao Chiwang's back.

"Oh, I see." Xiao Chiwang responded, and his figure quickly merged into the tea garden.

The so-called Butler Zhao was indeed brought here by a group of people.

During this period, it took almost half a stick of incense.

There were four people who brought him over, all of them were big and thick, and they looked a little fierce.

In addition to him and the four people who carried him, there were four or five scattered people who came over and said that they were also the people in charge here, and that they were busy with each other just now because they heard the news of the new owner coming. came here.

Bai Jinli sized up those people with a faint smile, but didn't make a sound.

Soon, those who carried Butler Zhao put his stretcher on the ground in front of Bai Jinli, and then stood aside with their hands behind their backs, like a debt collector.

"Cough cough, this old slave is Manager Zhao of this manor. I didn't know that the new master was coming, so I missed him. It's really a sin. Cough cough, cough cough!"

Manager Zhao was trembling slightly with one hand propped on the stretcher, while the other hand was covering his chest while talking. There was a trace of paleness on his old face, and he really looked like he was too ill to get out of bed.

"You are indeed guilty, Er Huo, pour a basin of water over it to make Manager Zhao sober." Bai Jinli ordered lightly.

As soon as these words came out, Er Huo obeyed.

It happened that there was a well in the yard, and there was a water urn beside it, which contained abundant water resources.

Erhuo took a bucket of water and swished it towards Guanshi Zhao.

In just a moment, Guanshi Zhao was turned into a drowned rat.

"Cough, cough, this...is this the punishment given to the old slave by the new master? Old, cough, the old slave accepts."

Zhao Guanshi was also startled by Bai Jinli's unreasonable operation of playing cards, but he still tried hard to suppress the anger in his heart, pretending to be human.

It's just that Bai Jinli could clearly see that Manager Zhao's hands on the stretcher had involuntarily tightened, and they were slightly white due to the force of the squeeze.

There was a flash of gloom and anger on his face just now, but he quickly lowered his eyes and returned to his sickly appearance.

This person is worthy of being in charge here for more than 20 years, and he is really quite calm.

"New master, what do you mean? Manager Zhao didn't come to see you on purpose. He was really sick and couldn't come. Now that everyone else has been brought here, and you have seen it, why do you want to punish him?"

After seeing Bai Jinli's actions, someone immediately defended Manager Zhao.

"Who are you?" Bai Jinli glanced at him.

"Little Zhao Fu is the supervisor of this manor." The man replied.

"Oh." After Bai Jinli snorted, she stopped looking at him, and continued to look at Guanshi Zhao with a half-smile.

"..." Zhao Fu, who was ignored, suddenly looked angry, and couldn't help clenching his fists.

"Cough cough, Zhao Fu, who made you talk to the new master like this? Do you understand the rules? Cough cough, new master, don't mind, this kid is just worried about my body and has no other meaning."

Manager Zhao continued to support his arms and said while trembling.

It's not even April yet, and the temperature in the suburbs is still a bit cold.

Especially when Guanshi Zhao was doused in water, he was blown by the wind and his body was so cold.

Bai Jinli didn't dwell on this question, but continued to ask.

"Guan Zhao, I wonder if Zhao Yi can convey my thoughts to you, huh?"

Zhao Guanshi looked up at Bai Jinli, and spoke with a trace of sadness in his eyes.

"New master, are you talking about dismissing my steward, paying the old slave, and letting the old slave go? Cough cough cough!"

After hearing Guanshi Zhao's words, the five people standing behind him spoke quickly.

"No, Manager Zhao can't leave."

"Yeah yeah……"

Even after hearing Bai Jinli's words, those four ferocious people had malice bursting out of their bodies, and they looked at Bai Jinli fiercely.
