Chapter 184 Strange Woman
Can't lose money!
Absolutely no loss!
Even if Guo Dan didn't say it, Chen Ping was convinced of it. According to the contract, even if it was over now, he would not lose. This transaction was the easiest transaction he had ever done. He only needed to do one thing, which was to do the work well and strive to get the contract for the second phase of the project as soon as possible.
After talking with Chen Ping, Guo Dan took the opportunity to go to the ranch next to him, because the Taipu Temple had already resigned all the swordsmen and pen officials from the pastures, and now Guo Dan was going to rehire them.
When he arrived at the ranch, Liu Xunmou had already been waiting there.
"You're here, everyone has arrived."
Liu Xunmou pointed not far away.
Guo Dan turned his head and saw more than 80 people standing on the grass, dressed in a messy manner, standing sparsely on the grass, without any sense of discipline. If he had only such virtue to apply for a job in later generations, he would definitely not be able to enter the gate. But now, Guo Dan could only bear it. He is a businessman, but he does not have the heart of a Virgin. He would take them in as pity, but because people like them are so difficult to find in the past. To be familiar with the operation of the ranch, he had to recognize numbers and nod: "Go to go."
When he arrived on the grass, Guo Dan glanced at him and saw that they all had uneasiness on their faces. He didn't dare to look directly at him. He glanced at him secretly and said to himself, just know that it's good to be afraid, but you are so numb that you don't know what fear is.
These people have been eating and drinking here for a long time, and their spirits have been worn out and they have no desire to fight anymore. If they don't want them here, they will really have to go out to beg, although their ability will not make them fall to this point.
It is no exaggeration to say that the person in front of them today will determine their future destiny.
Guo Dan said: "My time is very precious. I don't want to talk nonsense to you. Let's just talk about it. I will give you twice as much reward than before. The only thing you have to do is to complete the tasks I ordered. If you don't do it well, get out. It's that simple."
As he said, he said to the servants on both sides: "Send the contract to them, sign it if you sign it, and leave if you don't sign it."
"yes."
The two servants immediately sent contracts to those people.
What's the end? Liu Xunmou suddenly reacted and said to Guo Dan: "You came here and said this?"
Guo Dan asked back: "Otherwise, what else would you say?"
Liu Xunmou said embarrassedly: "I thought you...you at least have to examine them."
Guo Dan smiled bitterly and said, "If you want to investigate, you will know that no one is qualified after looking at it. It's a waste of time. It's better to close your eyes and gamble."
Liu Xunmou said laughing and crying: "With that being said, you have to say at least a few words to boost morale!"
Guo Dan said, "Isn't it just to make money to boost morale? If there is no reward, no matter how good you can be, it is useless. If you can solve problems with money, try not to use your brain. If you have this energy, it is better to think about how to make more money. I gave them twice the reward, which is more than a thousand words. I don't need them to be loyal to me, just be loyal to money."
Liu Xunmou nodded slightly, feeling that Guo Dan seemed to be saying something, but it seemed that this was not the case. When he turned around, a sudden surprise flashed in his eyes. He saw that they were all holding a contract, their eyes were shining, their spirits were whispering to each other, which was completely different from the moment.
They originally thought they might have to beg for the streets, but they didn't expect it. Guo Dan didn't say anything and didn't evaluate them, so he just gave them twice the reward, feeling like he was dreaming.
Liu Xunmou thought, maybe he was right, money is better than a thousand words.
"You can arrange this here, I'll go back first." Guo Dan was really not joking.
"Your money is really hard to get!" Liu Xunmou said with a wry smile.
"It's vulgar to talk about money between us. What we pursue is the fun of gambling horses." Guo Dan smiled.
Liu Xunmou waved his hand and said, "You go, you go, the pirate ship is on, what else can I say?"
Guo Dan laughed and said, "Okay, I'll say goodbye first."
He turned around and suddenly his expression stagnated. He saw a Taoist nun wearing a white Taoist robe and a veiled hat standing behind them. Although the white gauze fell from the brim of the hat covered his face, his plump and tall figure was unforgettable.
It is Aunt Xu.
"Mr. Wusi?" Guo Dan said in surprise.
After hearing this, Liu Xunmou immediately turned around, stepped forward quickly, bowed and said, "Ximou has met Aunt Xu."
Aunt Xu asked, "Are you here to help?"
Liu Xunmou nodded and said, "Yes."
Aunt Xu smiled and said, "It's better to be like this than wasting time in a gambling house."
Liu Xunmou smiled awkwardly.
Aunt Xu said, "You go and do it, I just happened to pass by here."
"yes."
Liu Xunmou gave another tribute and then went back. When passing by Guo Dan, he gave him a gloating look.
What does it mean? It made me very scared. With Aunt Xu's appearance, her figure was almost as good as the Bodhisattva. It was a blessing to see it. Guo Dan walked up and bowed and smiled, "Mr. Wusi, what a coincidence!"
Aunt Xu nodded slightly.
Guo Dan said again: "I was thankful to Mr. Wusi's reminder last time, and I am very grateful."
Aunt Xu asked, "Just just say thank you verbally?"
"Ah?" Guo Dan looked at him in surprise.
Aunt Xu smiled and said, "I thought you would pay a lot of money to thank me, but it seems that you did not have this plan."
Wow! You are a master-like person, but how can you speak more mercilessly than me? Guo Dan wondered: "I heard that Wusi lay Buddhists are indifferent to fame and fortune..."
"Who said that?"
Aunt Xu interrupted Guo Dan.
“…!”
No one has ever said this. Guo Dan's eyes turned and said, "It's what Master Lingzun said. The layman didn't know. I told him about this on that day. I think Lord Lingzun should thank Mr. Wusi, but Lord Lingzun said that the layman was indifferent to fame and fortune and did not like social engagements. He also told me not to disturb the layman's practice."
Obviously, it was an hinting that Aunt Xu, you are helping your father, not helping me, and you should not come to me if you want to get a reward.
Aunt Xu smiled and said, "Dad has been cautious all his life. Although he is in the temple, he has never been involved in the right and wrong. He never thought that this old man met you, and he didn't know whether it was luck or misfortune."
How could Guo Dan not hear the implicit meaning of this? I know you pulled my father into the water. You made this matter, and you were the ones who benefited, and my father took the blame.
Guo Dan was not surprised by this, because judging from the last incident, Aunt Xu's wisdom must be above him, at least on the political level. She pretended to be confused with clarity: "I don't understand what this layman means."
"If you don't understand, then anyone can explain it, it's probably in vain." Aunt Xu shook her head gently.
Guo Dan laughed and said, "I am a lay Buddhist. I speak profoundly and knowledgeably. The more I listen to it, the more confused I am, and it is difficult for me to understand the mystery."
Aunt Xu said: "You are worthy of being a businessman. You will be confused when it is time to be confused."
"The layman is so humorous." Guo Dan beat him up.
Aunt Xu smiled and said seriously: "If I just wanted to help my father, I wouldn't have made that plan at all. I really hope that the court can contract the horse farm with you."
Guo Dan was stunned for a moment and said, "I thought Mr. Wusi hated me very much."
"It's true."
“…!”
Guo Dan said awkwardly: "Then why are you willing..."
"Help you?"
"I didn't say that." Guo Dan said hurriedly.
Aunt Xu smiled softly and said, "I help you because I know that you will at least take action because you want to make a profit. No matter whether the result is good or bad, it is always better than doing nothing."
Guo Tan smiled and said, "The layman is worried about the country and the people, and I admire him very much. It's a pity that I am a common man and it is difficult to understand."
Aunt Xu said, "You and I are both for the people. If this skin does not exist, where will the hair be attached? The country will flourish and stabilize, and it will be good to you and me."
"It makes sense."
Guo Dan said: "But I am just a businessman after all, and the layman's words to me may have little effect!"
Aunt Xu said, "But you also contracted ten horse farms in the court and did what merchants should not have done. If you can raise a lot of good horses for the court, and even improve the entire horse government and reduce the burden on the people, this is a good thing that benefits the country and the people. Our horse government has brought heavy burdens to the people, but at the same time, it has not brought the war horses they want to be."
"Wow......!"
Guo Dan said incredibly: "The layman really respects me!"
Aunt Xu asked, "Aren't you saying this yourself?"
I was clearly fooling people, and you took it seriously. Guo Dan laughed dryly and said, "I know the intention of the layman, but I am a businessman, and at my bones, I am a businessman. Whether it is my butt or my heart, I always want to make more money. There is nothing else. It is precisely because of this that I will contract those ten pastures. If I were like a layman, worried about the country and the people, I would not do this at all."
Aunt Xu shook her head and said, "You don't understand my intention. I just want to tell you that the benefits of this country are the benefits of you and me. If the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, what's the use of you? Although the world's general trend will be together for a long time, and the combination will be together for a long time. Some things are unstoppable, but we are living in the present after all."
She looked at Guo Dan again and said, "And, the last thing should have taught you a lesson. You are a businessman, and it is very special to do this. As long as you make a little mistake, you will be criticized by them and even lose your entire family's lives. Therefore, you must do everything perfectly, benefit the country and the people, so that you can continue."
Guo Dan pondered for a while, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "The layman's words made me feel a little sad."
Aunt Xu said, "How do you say this?"
Guo Dan smiled bitterly and said, "What kind of court is it that makes the lay Buddhists place their hopes on me, a businessman."
Aunt Xu was silent for a little and said, "It is human nature to seek medical treatment when you are in a hurry."
Guo Dan was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "I will remember what the layman said. If I had the ability, I would naturally take on the corresponding responsibilities, but I would not overestimate myself. It is true that I am not in my position or do my own affairs."
Aunt Xu nodded and said, "Goodbye."
After saying that, he left straight away.
Guo Dan looked at her with confusion and said to herself: "What a strange woman."
Suddenly I heard a cool voice, "What's strange?"
Guo Dan turned around and looked at Yang Feixu, who had a very low presence.
Yang Feixu looked at him with his eyes tilted.
Guo Dan smiled bitterly and said, "I forgot that there is something even stranger here."
