On the second day of February, the dragon raised its head, no matter how openly and secretly fighting in the court, the people in the capital always lived and worked in peace and contentment, and even some impatient women put on their spring clothes early after the waking of sting.

Xiang Wan got the general ledger of the restaurant for January presented by shopkeeper Dai yesterday, and spent the whole day in Ke Siyun's accounting room. On the one hand, he had to make a summary of the business situation of the previous month, and reward everyone in the restaurant according to his work; On the other hand, it is necessary to re-establish the salary standard of the restaurant, laying a solid foundation for the next step to add branches.

Of course, this matter of winning people's hearts must be announced in front of everyone, so Xiang Wan arrived at the store early today. Shopkeeper Dai got the boss's instruction and informed everyone to come to the store half an hour earlier last night to accept the boss's reward for meritorious deeds.

Shopkeeper Dai decided to follow Xiang Wan wholeheartedly since Zhuangyuan Building closed at the end of last month. He knew that he was not resourceful, so he could only be more heartfelt and conscientious. Fortunately, his boss never disliked his dull work.

According to the business situation last month, Xiang Wan took 7000 taels out of the net profit of 500 taels as a dividend for everyone in the store. Even Jiu'er and Zhu'er have a share.

The highest prizes were of course Li Quan, Meng Shan and Shopkeeper Dai, as well as Li Mama, Qiu Jugang and Cao Silong. Each person got 50 taels of silver, and the rest of them ranged from 10 taels of silver to 3 taels of silver according to the daily assessment results.

Such a step-by-step reward is also to motivate the guys in the store to keep forging ahead and pay more for more work.

Shopkeeper Dai couldn't help clicking his tongue. Except for himself and Wei Cong, everyone in the shop was servants of the Yu family who bought out life and death. It was the first time I saw a master who treated people so generously. For the Yu family, the monthly money received last month and the tipping from guests are at least a dozen or so taels of silver, which is not much worse than the ordinary yamen servants at the yamen gate.

Of course, he couldn't understand that Xiang Wan's incentive policy was formulated according to modern enterprise management methods.

In addition, Xiang Wan also announced a new salary system and promotion plan.

For example, Dai Quan and Li's mother are in charge of the front hall and the kitchen. In addition to the fixed guarantee, each person's future wages will be paid quarterly according to the amount of net profit. This part is even far lower than their dead wages. It was several times higher, and Li's mother said at the time that she would concentrate on the things in the store in the future.Meng Shan's family couldn't help being jealous. This Qiaozong couldn't be snatched away. If I knew what kind of shopkeeper I would find, I would be done if I just served concurrently.

Of course, Xiang Wan would also take their feelings into consideration, and promised to open new stores in the future, and then the capable people would occupy each position. Of course, the premise was to do a good job at the job at hand, such as the business in other places and in Beijing.

Xiang Wan also appointed Wei Cong as the leader of the clerks. He also set assessment indicators and promised that the following clerks would have the opportunity to participate in the competition for new stores in the future. For outstanding talents, they would be allowed to redeem themselves and regain their freedom after five years. .

Everyone has a rush, and the energy to get rid of it just now is full again. Some people even think that if they can always have such good benefits, what are they doing to redeem themselves?

Xiang Wan is busy planning the future development of the restaurant, and Lu Zhan hasn't let up in the past two days. Every day when he is on duty, he finds a secret conversation with Xiang Wan and escorts her back to the lotus. In the name of Brother Rui, sometimes he would reveal to her some important events that happened in the court. Xiang Wan was frank in his heart, and there was no taboo against men and women, but the guys in the store began to discuss in private, she would not Is a good thing coming soon?

Although Lu Zhan felt that there had been a breakthrough in his relationship with Xiang Wan, he was also very troubled. Even if other people were dating, they were at least tender and affectionate. Unlike himself, every time he said it was a closed door, the content of what he said was not Even if there was a bloody storm, it would be difficult to change the situation for a while.

Xiang Wan was open-minded, but he also had to take into account other people's winks, so he deliberately calmed down the growing relationship between the two, and also expressed his position by the way.

Just after noon, Xiang Wan took Jiu'er away from Ke Siyunlai, and went straight to Yujie Street, planning to buy some gifts for Mrs. Xie and his younger siblings, and at the same time inspect the newly signed shops with Ke Ruyunlai.

Both the master and the servant didn't take the car today, they just walked along the Imperial Street from south to north, and when Jiu'er encountered something delicious and interesting, he didn't forget to bring a portion for Zhu'er.

Until Shen Chu, Xiang Wan saw that it was getting late, so she decided to go home early, so she followed the way she came from to the south of the lotus alley.

As soon as she reached a hidden intersection, Xiang Wan felt a chill on her neck. Kong Wu's powerful arm came around from behind and approached her neck with a dagger. Her heart felt cold from head to toe in an instant. In broad daylight, unexpectedly met the robbers.Xiang Wan forced herself to calm down, not forgetting to throw the things she just bought at the intersection.

Xiang Wan and Jiu'er were taken all the way to the end of the alley before the two kidnappers released them.

"Don't talk, don't move, hand over all the valuables, don't let me do it." The two kidnappers covered their faces, and the man with short, triangular eyes spoke first.Xiang Wan was a little relieved, it was okay to just ask for money.

"Second Brother, Boss Hu said that he just made people, and we won't let us touch these external things."

"The money he gave is enough for us to eat for a few years? Don't be stupid, this little money wants us to bear a life lawsuit. He thinks beautifully."

"Then keep her for now. I think these two young ladies have delicate skin and tender flesh. It's better to sell them at a distance. When the time comes, they will say that they have drowned them."

"Do you really think that Hu is a fool? What's more, with two living people, why are we still running away?"

One moment before, Xiang Wan was glad that the other party was just begging for money, but the next moment when he heard them mention the surname Hu, his heart was half cold. He never thought that he would actually hire murderers for a restaurant. Although he knew that these killers were vicious, they usually took The money will fulfill the contract, and Xiang Wan still has to give it a go.

"These two big brothers, I have no grudges with you in the past, and I have no grudges in the present. I think you two hijacked me here just to ask for money. To tell you the truth, I am running a restaurant right now. Come on, as long as the two of you are willing to let me go home today, I am willing to give away half of the monthly profit, what do you two think?"

"You are very sincere in asking the price, but unfortunately we are afraid that if we have money, we don't have the life to spend. We might as well tell you that someone paid for your life, and that person has something to do with my brothers, so I can only tell you I'm sorry."

"Wait a minute, if you two are trustworthy, you might as well disclose a little bit of what you are worried about. My little girl, I also have contacts with the officials. I believe that the matter of the two strong men is not incomprehensible."

"This?" The man called the second brother seemed a little shaken.

"I'm still sorry, even if we can spare a few crimes of life lawsuits, we are afraid that we will have to suffer from that prison. The knives in our hands are newly sharpened, and I think it won't make you too painful. Don't blame our brothers for being cruel, close your eyes and just go on your way." As they spoke, the two of them raised their knives and were about to chop down.

Xiang Wan thought she was going to die here, so she just held Jiu'er and retreated, but found that there was no way to retreat, so she had to close her eyes and accept her fate.

After waiting for a while, the expected pain did not hit. Xiang Wan slowly opened his eyes. Before he could clearly see the two corpses lying in front of him, he was blindfolded by a big warm hand.

"Don't look, the villains have already been killed." The voice was very late, and it was Lu Zhan.

Perhaps because he knew he was saved, Xiang Wan relaxed and fell on Lu Zhan's chest before he knew it, shaking uncontrollably.

Jiu'er was not so lucky. She witnessed the whole process of Lu Zhan's rescue, and also saw the wounds pierced through the back of the two gangsters' heads. She was already sitting on the ground paralyzed, unable to speak a whole sentence.

Lu Zhan only cared about appeasing Xiang Wan. It was the first time he had met Xiang Wan with such a fragile side. But the strange thing was that he admired her for being calm and strong in the past, but seeing her weak side today, he felt not only not disgusted, but only distressed. This is probably the legendary beauty in the eye of the beholder.

Lu Zhan watched Xiang Wan trembling non-stop, so he could only hold her close to his chest to avoid seeing the miserable scene behind him, and slowly comforted her back with his hands: "It's okay, it's okay, it's over."

Xiang Wan slowed down for a while, and finally calmed down, but felt embarrassed, so she had to calmly stand still, and looked at Jiu'er next to her, tears streaming down her face from fright.

Lu Zhan also knew that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, and he didn't know if there was any backup for the visitors, so he suggested to find them quickly and take them to a safe place so that he could deal with the aftermath.

Xiang Wan was fine, she was basically back to normal now, but Jiu'er was too scared to move.

Lu Zhan couldn't, and didn't dare to leave the two of them alone, so he found a private room in a nearby teahouse, and gave the water delivery guy a penny, and asked him to take his waist card and go to Jingzhao Mansion for an errand. Let's say that there was a robbery on the Royal Street, and the murderer was already dead.When the man heard that he was going to report the crime at the gate of the yamen, and he was killed, he was very afraid of being implicated, so he refused to go, and even returned the money.Xiang Wan had no choice but to let him go to the Hanlin Academy's business mansion and invite Mr. Shang from the Ministry of War, and the man took the money and went out.

Xiang Wan was also helpless. Apart from orphans and widowed mothers, she still had to trouble her sister and brother-in-law at critical moments.

Shang Zihuan had also just arrived home, when he heard that someone at the door came to Mr. Shang with the badge of Huben Army, he left the second door without taking off his official uniform. No one knew that Huben was the account number of King Qi.

The clerk who delivered the letter was eloquent, and gave a general description of the three of them, and told the truthful words of Lu Zhan's instructions.Shang Zihuan was not sure if there was anything serious about Xiang Wan other than being frightened, so he just asked his servants to tell Xiang Qing that he had an engagement, and then he took the carriage and went out, while he rode behind the carriage.

When Shang Zihuan arrived at the teahouse, he saw the person accompanying Xiang Wan, and found that he was an acquaintance. As the confidant of His Highness King Qi, General Lu Lang had been to the Ministry of War to deal with him a lot recently.

But now is not the time to reminisce about the old days. Shang Zihuan came here to take Xiang Wan back in one piece. As for the reporting and evidence collection, Lu Zhan will naturally handle it. After all, the two murderers were killed by his sleeve arrows.

Although Xiang Wan wanted to go back directly to the lotus, she couldn't hold back her brother-in-law, so she took a carriage and went to the merchant's house first.
