Chapter 795: Manager
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“I only want to be on good terms with you, High Scholar Chu.”
“Look, this…” Wang Shichu looked at him uneasily.
After not seeing Chu Heng reply for a long time, he felt even more uneasy.
“Master Wang, since you want to be on good terms with my Chu family, there’s something I really need your help with.” Chu Heng said after ignoring him for a while.
“What’s the matter? High Scholar, just say it.” Wang Shichu regained some of his spirit and immediately stood up straight, feeling that there was hope for peace.
Chu Heng said, “The wood ears produced in Black Water Village are a good mountain product. It’s good for the body after eating it. I plan to do business with it.”
“It’s just that Black Water Village is quite far from the county or Xingshui Village. We need someone to help manage the business here.”
When Wang Shichu heard this, he more or less understood the other party’s meaning. However, he was not sure. He carefully probed. “High Scholar Chu, you want to…”
“Are you willing to be this candidate, Master Wang?”
“You’re letting me do it?” Wang Shichu opened his mouth in surprise. He accidentally said what was in his heart. “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll be greedy?”
“Do you know how to do things?” Chu Heng glanced at him, still as calm as ever.
Wang Shichu realized what he had just said, and his face instantly became a little awkward.
However, he did not expect Chu Heng to have such an attitude.
“High Scholar Chu, are you telling the truth?” He thought that the other party was joking, but now he was a little hesitant.
“Of course. Since there is no irreconcilable conflict between me and you, why must we be enemies?”
“Unless you really have the intention to take avenge Wang Youcai.”
“No, no, absolutely not. I’m not familiar with Wang Youcai at all. That’s a relationship that goes back three generations.” Wang Shichu immediately expressed his attitude, afraid that Chu Heng would misunderstand his position.
He usually did not go to the county.
In addition, he had fallen ill a few days ago, so he was not very clear about the news of the Wang family in the county.
Later, Wang Yun appeared at his house and told him the news. Wang Shichu sent people to the county to investigate the news.
However, the person who came back did not say anything serious. He only said that the Wang family in the county was framed by the Chu and Xie families, which was why the entire family lost their lives.
In addition, Chu Yun had threatened him to hide a fugitive. With the power of the Xie and Chu families, they knew that he would definitely not let him off. That was why they did something stupid.
It was not until the day before yesterday when he sent someone to the county to investigate the situation that he found out that he had been deceived by Wang Yun from the beginning to the end.
The other party simply wanted to use him to deal with the Chu family and the Xie family. They did not care about his life or death at all.
This made Wang Shichu extremely angry.
Now that he knew this, he naturally did not want to offend Chu Heng again.
Even though Du Heng had asked him to drink laxatives yesterday, he did not resist.
“Since there isn’t, naturally, you’re trustworthy,” Chu Heng said lightly.
Wang Shichu felt a lingering fear in his heart. He used to think that Chu Heng was stupid, but it turned out that he was the one who was stupid. How could someone who could get become a high scholar be stupid, especially when he had captured Wang Yun the moment he made a move?
Not to mention this speculation, just his courage and the capable people around him showed that he definitely had something to rely on. It was just that he did not know about it.
After Wang Shichu thought it through, he felt that an opportunity was in front of him. If he did not seize it, he would be stupid.
“Since you trusts me, I will be bold enough to be the manager.”
Chu Heng nodded. “You just have to write the account book and handle the wood ear business to the villagers. I’ll send someone over to check things out regularly.”
