Chapter 366 Planning 2
Zhao Chunming politely escorted Chen Sanlang out and said, "Mr. Chen, I will report your situation to the steward as soon as possible. Please come back in three days and wait for the news."
Chen Sanlang nodded slightly, clasped his fists, bowed, and left. The moment he stepped out of the door, his heart was filled with anticipation, and he felt a little uneasy.
Thinking that he was one step closer to Wang Jinyi, his heart couldn't help but beat fast, and he secretly prayed that he could get the job smoothly.
Zhao Chunming watched the man walk away until the thin figure disappeared around the corner of the street, then he slowly turned around.
He added in the recruitment suggestion column of Chen Sanlang's registration form: He has special abilities and is recommended for employment.
The next morning, Wen Bai went to Tai Sheng's government office and called a meeting with the officials.
At the meeting, Chen Sanlang specifically mentioned,
"A scholar has come to apply for the job. He has outstanding mental abacus skills and some special talents. Here is the registration form."
Wen Bai listened to the report while looking at the registration form. Chen Sanlang, from Xunnan County, home address...
His eyes narrowed slightly, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.
Is it him? Is it really that person?!
Wen Bai's mind instantly emerged with the young man who was following him stealthily in the East Market.
He asked calmly:
"Is that person thin, with a slightly dark complexion, two long eyebrows, a focused gaze when looking at people, and a tall and thin figure?"
Zhao Chunming was slightly stunned, and after pondering for a moment, he quickly nodded in agreement.
"You said this Chen Sanlang is a scholar? Since he is so focused on the imperial examination, I'm afraid he won't put his mind on our Tai Sheng."
Wenbai spoke, his tone full of rejection, and the implication of evasion was obvious in his words.
Zhao Chunming hesitated for a moment and explained:
"Steward, although Chen Sanlang is aiming for the imperial examination, he wants to seek refuge and also wants this job. He is indeed very capable. Besides, all the stores need to have their accounts audited, and we urgently need talents like him..."
Wen Bai frowned slightly and stared at Zhao Chunming closely.
Zhao Chunming felt uneasy at the look and subconsciously stopped talking. He quickly recalled what he had just said and felt that he was not biased, so he met Wen Bai's gaze calmly.
Wen Bai said leisurely: "Do you know each other?"
"I don't know!"
"He asked you for help?"
"I have never met him, Steward Wen. I recommended him purely because of his talent. I...ah!"
Zhao Chunming answered decisively.
Seeing him like this, Wen Bai felt that there was some misunderstanding that needed to be explained:
"I don't doubt his ability, but Tai Sheng is busy with his affairs. If he can't devote himself to it, who will be held responsible if something goes wrong?"
Zhao Chunming is now in charge of the review and inspection of Taisheng projects. He sincerely hopes to have a capable subordinate like Chen Sanlang, so he changed his tone.
“Master, our project review task is heavy and of great importance, so we need capable people, and he happens to meet the requirements.
The manager said that he could not devote his full attention to the project review, but he was just worried about his working hours. This is easy to solve. He will be paid according to the amount of work he does.
If you are worried about the accuracy, that's fine. We are now reviewing with two people at the same time, so he can just assign an accountant to work with him!"
Wen Bai looked at Zhao Chunming with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He didn't expect that he would be so serious about someone he met for the first time.
Although Zhao Chunming is her assistant, in fact, the lady gives all the matters of Tai Sheng's review to him alone, and he holds the real power.
However, Wenbai still had doubts about Chen Sanlang and did not dare to decide to hire him easily.
&34;Since you think so highly of him, get to know him more in depth before making a decision!
Zhao Chunming was delighted. This was the Wang family's fixed procedure. He said quickly, "What the steward said is absolutely right."
Wen Bai suppressed his inner thoughts and his face showed no emotion.
Zhao Chunming thought that the investigation into Chen Sanlang would soon produce results, but he still hadn't received any results until Chen Sanlang showed up as promised three days later.
He was filled with regret, and in order to retain this talent, he had to say:
&34;The opening of the accounting office requires the master's consent. My master has been busy recently, so please be patient and wait. &34;
When Chen Sanlang heard this, its meaning changed.
Chen Sanlang's heart moved, and he seized the opportunity to ask: "I heard that the Wang family had arranged a marriage for the young lady? But was it delayed because of this?"
Zhao Chunming didn't know that Chen Sanlang had inquired about the missing person notice before, so he smiled and replied:
"The marriage proposal of the eldest lady does not affect the normal affairs of our second house. Your business will not be disturbed. I will go and ask her again. Please wait a moment, sir."
Chen Sanlang asked:
&34;Does the second house also have a young lady seeking a marriage? &34;
"No, it's just that the eldest daughter is getting married this year, and our second daughter is still young, not old enough to get married, so naturally..."
At this point, Zhao Chunming realized that he had said too much, and hurriedly stopped talking, smiling and saying: "Sir, please wait for two more days. I will urge you to come again in a few days."
Zhao Chunming's intention to retain him was very obvious. Chen Sanlang saw it and understood in his heart that this manager surnamed Zhao really wanted to keep him and that this person was worth making friends with.
The two said goodbye again at the door.
After Chen Sanlang left, he muttered to himself what he had just heard, repeatedly pondering the deep meaning of it, fearing that he would miss any key information.
&34;…but the eldest daughter of the family is planning to marry this year, and our second daughter is not yet of age, so naturally…&34;
Not old enough, which means the oldest of the second room's young ladies is less than 14 years old! This means that he still has a chance. Thinking of this, Chen Sanlang's eyes became hot, his heart was filled with emotions, and he wanted to shout to the sky.
Looking around, people on the street looked reserved, so he had to suppress his impulse.
He recalled the oath he made when he first decided to find Wang Jinyi:
&34;I would give ten years of my life to be with her again! &34;
Chen Sanlang stopped and felt a strong urge in his heart to let the gods of heaven and earth witness his oath.
I remember that before the exam, many people went to the temple to draw lots and pray. Huo Ying also advised me to go to Lingyun Temple to burn incense and make a wish. I didn’t care about it at the time, but now I feel that I have to go!
In Lingyun Temple, incense smoke curls up and bells ring melodiously.
With a pious heart, Chen Sanlang lit a stick of incense in front of the Buddha statue, then knelt on the cushion, closed his eyes and prayed:
"Buddha, I, Chen Sanlang, also known as Chen Zhiyuan, sincerely pray to renew my love with my beloved Wang Jinyi. If you can do so, I am willing to exchange ten years of my life for the blessing of the Buddha."
After finishing his prayer, he stood up reverently and prepared to leave.
At this time, an old monk came up to him and said with a smile:
"Donor, you look like you have an obsession in your heart.
I have a word of advice for you. Everything in this world is predetermined. As long as you have good intentions, good results will come. &34;
Chen Sanlang was shocked and looked at the old monk: "Master, can I continue my relationship with her? I hope you can give me some advice."
The old monk shook his head slightly: "The origin and extinction of fate are all in one thought. This is the will of heaven. Buddha said: It cannot be explained, it cannot be explained..."
