Chapter 127 The Owner of Jubaozhai
"Puyang Xuan, your laugh is really awful!"
Yang Jianwu was somewhat disgusted and drove the phantom a little further away from Puyangxuan.
Puyang Xuan was completely oblivious and sped up to catch up. "I'm just so happy. By the way, what did you two talk about last night? You were laughing so loudly."
"Uh..." Thinking of the laughter last night, Yang Jianwu was speechless. He had laughed so hard that he couldn't control himself and his laughter was too awful... Sigh, another embarrassing chapter in his history.
"It's nothing, I just thought of something funny and didn't control my voice well, it was a bit too loud."
"Something that makes you laugh so happily must be really fun."
Yang Jianwu unconsciously thought about Luo Qi digging in the ground again; it was quite amusing.
The two chatted and laughed all the way to the entrance of Jubaozhai. Manager Feng was at the counter checking accounts. Hearing the noise, he immediately ran out to greet them. To avoid passersby recognizing Yang Jianwu's identity, he pretended to welcome them in, saying, "Young master and young lady have arrived. Please come in. We have many new products. Let me show you up."
Yang Jianwu said, "Thank you for your trouble," and then followed Manager Feng upstairs to a private room with Puyang Xuan.
The owner of Jubaozhai is the Jiang family, but only the managers know the true owner's identity. Manager Feng was only fortunate enough to meet him once during the year-end inventory two years ago.
At that time, Yang Jianwu had not fully grown up, and Manager Feng was only the manager of the Lincheng branch. Everyone felt it was unbelievable that a little girl was actually the real boss behind the scenes!
Most people looked at Yang Jianwu with disdain, thinking that he was just a nominal boss because of his family background. However, when he spoke, Yang Jianwu pointed out the shortcomings of each store and the direction for future development in a sharp way. He also caught a store manager who was falsifying accounts on the spot. Although it was meant to make an example of someone, the punishment was unforgettable.
High profits always attract envy, and two more people took the risk. Whether it was bad luck or the owner's strict auditing, they were both caught red-handed within seven days of the incident. One of them was from the original Jingzhong branch.
From then on, everyone truly regarded Yang Jianwu as their master, and no one dared to deceive him anymore.
Manager Feng was grateful for his loyalty, which led to his employer's promotion to manage the shop in the capital. Here, he would meet people who were either powerful or wealthy. The employer paid him generously, and his family, relying on Jubaozhai, had established a firm foothold in the capital. Outsiders would respectfully address him as "Manager Feng."
The three arrived at the private room, where Master Wei and Master Qi were already waiting. Upon seeing Yang Jianwu enter, they stood up and bowed to greet her.
"Welcome, Miss."
"Please rise, gentlemen. Was your journey safe?"
Master Wei bowed again, "Following the directions given by Miss, we have been in the capital for two days, and all our belongings are intact."
Yang Jianwu nodded in satisfaction, "Thank you both for your hard work."
"It is an honor for us both to work for Miss, and it is not hard work at all."
"Now that you two have rested well, let's trouble you to do some more things today. Let's go to the backyard to talk."
"Yes."
Puyang Xuan had been secretly observing the group. They were all quite old, and they genuinely admired Jianwu, which showed that Jianwu held a significant place in their hearts.
In the processing room in the backyard, the results of their recent battle were neatly displayed. Yang Jianwu was very satisfied with them, while Puyang Xuan looked around and touched everything like a country bumpkin visiting a grand garden.
"Sword Dance, are all of these made of glass?!"
"Yes, as you can see, it's all glass."
"Wow, you're incredibly wealthy! All the glass in the entire Xipan region combined probably doesn't equal your wealth!"
“Puyangxuan, you’re exaggerating. The glass here is all jewelry, so it looks like there’s a lot of it, but in terms of weight, it can’t compare to Xipan.”
"That's already amazing! Sword Dance, you know what? The longer I'm with you, the more I'm drawn to you! You're like a treasure, so captivating!"
"Cough cough..."
"Cough cough..."
"Cough cough..."
The three people present were elders by age, and when they suddenly heard Puyang Xuan's blatant confession, their faces involuntarily turned hot. It was so embarrassing that they wanted to cover their ears.
Yang Jianwu hadn't expected Puyang Xuan to say those things in public, and her face flushed red for a moment. "Can't you be a little more mindful?!"
Puyang Xuan glanced at the three of them, ruining his chance to win over Jianwu!
He could be playful and gentle with Yang Jianwu, but he was a demon to others, and his icy aura made the three of them shiver involuntarily.
"You three are all experienced people, and I haven't done anything excessive, so what's there to be embarrassed about?"
Manager Feng was very good at judging people. He knew that Puyang Xuan thought they were in the way, so he quickly smiled apologetically and said, "Yes, yes, there's nothing to be embarrassed about. These are all normal human reactions. We overreacted."
Just as Puyang Xuan was about to speak again, an apple was suddenly shoved into his mouth. "Mmm—zhan.wu..."
Yang Jianwu slowly wiped her fingers. "You want to eat an apple? Sit here and eat it. My two masters and I have something to discuss. We'll go into the inner room first. If you want anything else, just ask Manager Feng. Don't be shy."
Puyang Xuan leisurely sat down in the rattan chair, crossed his legs, and carefully examined the apple in his hand before slowly tasting it. "Mmm, the apple Jianwu gave me is really sweet and delicious."
Manager Feng stood to the side and asked considerately, "Young master, what else would you like to eat? I'll go and get it."
Puyang Xuan waved his hand, "No need, an apple will do." Then he glanced at Manager Feng, "Are you afraid of me!"
Manager Feng shook his head repeatedly, "No, no, it was Miss who instructed me to take good care of the young master. I was just following Miss's instructions."
"Alright, that's all for you. Go ahead and get busy. I'll just sit here and wait for the sword dance."
"Yes, son."
Goodness, he calls the young lady by her name directly, and in such an intimate way. He doesn't believe he has no feelings for her!
Since Miss has tacitly allowed him to stay by her side and even permits him to address her so affectionately, it seems that the two of them are about to get married. In the future, I must be careful when speaking to this young master and make sure I don't offend him.
Yang Jianwu was unaware that Manager Feng had already begun to treat Puyangxuan as the male master; if he had known, he would have certainly given him a good thrashing.
He took out the design drawings of glass tea set and glass jar drawn on the road from his sleeve, "Please have the two craftsmen make one set for each of you according to these drawings, and it would be best if they could be completed in the next two days."
