In this way, he was going to hire some manager for the tea fields as well.
Uncle Erzhu could just be the minor manager. They would not be able to remain in charge of the overall situation.
Yuezheng Xiao could make the introduction and hire some reliable manager whilst they would foot the bill.
Officer Qiao snorted and said, “Why the trouble? You can go with the strategist and he is going to tell you how to write the letter.”
Officer Qiao was panicking inside. He just could not waste any more time.
He did not think that if Shao Yunduan made the recommendation to Yuezheng Xiao, Yuezheng Xiao would turn him down. His men were definitely better at managing things.
Shao Yunduan could not argue back. So, he forced himself to nod, but issued a warning as well. “Okay then. But I can’t make the decision for Young Master Yuezheng. If he doesn’t want to approve of it, 1 won’t change a thing. He liked me so he made me the manager. Maybe because I had found some watermelons for him.’
There was no free lunch in the world.
Yuezheng Xiao hired him for some reason. Not everyone was eligible.
Otherwise he would have sent someone from his family. Why bother to get some people from Officer Qiao, even if they were suitable or reliable?The Yuezheng Family never lacked such talent.
Qiao Xuan almost wanted to burst into laughter, but she tried to hide her expressions.
Officer Qiao understood what Shao Yunduan meant. He snorted in displeasure. “Write the letter, leave the rest to others.’
Officer Qiao seemed quite resolute. They might have an argument soon. So, he decided to drop it here.
He would write the letter according to the instructions but no matter how emotional Officer Qiao might be, Yuezheng Xiao would not approve of it.
Yuezheng Xiao was not a stupid man.
“Okay!” Officer Qiao seemed satisfied.
He looked at Qiao Xuan as if he had suddenly developed some good feelings towards her. He said quietly, “You can have lunch here on your rare trip, I will let the kitchen…
He had meant to say will let the kitchen do what you like to eat’ But he had no idea what Qiao Xuan liked to eat.
He coughed and changed the words. “I will let the kitchen prepare some more dishes.’
Qiao Xuan did not want to stay for lunch. But she realized that Officer Qiao asked them to stay for lunch just to get close to them.
Hence, she had to accept the offer in case he was suspicious about her refusal.
“Thanks, Father.’
“You should stay here and wait.”
Officer Qiao nodded and ignored Qiao Xuan after that moment. Soon, he got up and left.
He was bothered by how to raise money for his career. So, he ignored Qiao Xuan totally once the matter was finished.
Qiao Xuan could sense that he was troubled by something. So, she asked nothing more but chuckled inwardly in her heart.
He should be bothered heavily.
Qiao Xuan asked the maid to pass on her greetings to Madame Qiao.
Since she was here, she needed to keep her manners rather than cause trouble.
The maid returned fast. “Madame Qiao is busy now. She said, “You don’t have to go over to greet her, Second Miss.”
That was exactly what Qiao Xuan honed for. She showed a look of regret.
“Okay… then.”
The maid threw a disdainful look at her but stayed silent.
Second Miss wished to suck up to Madame Qiao? She did not deserve to meet her.
During lunchtime, Officer Qiao and Madame Qiao did not show up. Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan were alone..
