After traveling through time, I thrived in ancient times

Sure enough, Qi Kun's expression was now much more serious than before.

From the appearance of Maodan to the current transformation, Qi Kun is at least not so resistant anymore. Although he has always behaved very gently, this gentle appearance just shows his indifference and resistance.

"Sir, you are so direct, aren't you worried that we will reject you?"

Yu Tingwan took a sip of tea, his brows moved slightly, and he resisted the urge to frown.

It tasted bitter with a hint of astringency, and there were still tea leaves in her mouth. As expected, she still didn't know how to appreciate tea. She would have to find someone to teach her later!

Putting down the teacup, Yu Tingwan wondered if she could open a milk tea shop in the future and launch a milk tea, fruit tea or something like that, which would also give her an alternative.

"If Mr. Qi agrees directly, I will worry about whether my choice is wrong!"

Then he said to Qi Kun seriously: "Mr. Qi, why don't you ask me what I want you to do?"

Qi Kun didn't care at all. What to do? Besides risking their lives, what else can they do!

"Zuo just wants us to be the young master's sword and eyes. We have no one to rely on in the capital. We are completely independent individuals.

Such people are very convenient to use. Even if one or two of them die, no one will take responsibility for us."

And they posed no threat to him at all, and it would be easy for him to kill them.

It seems that someone had tried to take advantage of them before, but failed.

"It seems that someone has already contacted Mr. Qi."

Qi Kun remained silent. They were still big shots in the capital! He had never thought that a group of poor people like him could be favored by these high-ranking nobles.

Seeing him like this, Yu Tingwan didn't keep him in suspense and told him directly what he wanted them to do.

"Mr. Qi, you misunderstood. I will not let you do anything dangerous, and I will provide you with security and basic living security.

Most importantly, I'm not asking you to make knives. It's totally unnecessary, right?"

This made Qi Kun confused. "Sir, why don't you just speak frankly? I really don't know what people like us can do for you."

Yu Tingwan placed the folding fan in his hand on the table and told him his plan.

"Mr. Qi, I am a businessman. I intend to let you follow me to do business. Opening a shop requires manpower. I can't just buy people to do business, right?"

Doing business? He would let those who are willing to work be waiters, those who are smart be shopkeepers, and those who are willing to learn to be accountants, he would find someone to teach them.

In short, there is money to be made, work to do, food and clothing to be provided, and rewards for good work!

This kind of thing is no different from recruiting outside, and the treatment is even better than theirs. Why would they specifically look for them for such a job? Could it be that this young man is being kind?

"Mr. Qi, I won't hide it from you. Some of the businesses I do are different from others. They are very special businesses. I'm looking for you because I hope you can find a group of people who won't betray me.

After we make a profit, I can also distribute dividends to those of you who have skills and are willing to work hard, so that you can truly gain a foothold in Beijing.

But in addition to these, I will let you continue to help me do other things. Your safety will be guaranteed and your life will not be in danger, but there is still some danger, so I hope you can consider this carefully. "

After hearing this, Qi Kun understood. So, because of the special nature of their business and the fact that they had other uses for him, he chose them.

"Mr. Jiang, as you said, even if we agree to your request, how can you ensure that we won't betray you? Are you asking us to sign a contract to sell ourselves to you?"

It seems that this is the only way to be completely at ease, right?

Yu Tingwan shook his head gently, denying his words.

"No, even if you sign a contract to sell yourself, it's not omnipotent. In this world, the most stable relationship is interest!

A great man once said, "The world is bustling with people, all for the sake of profit; the world is in turmoil, all for the sake of profit."

When there are enough benefits between us, who would choose to betray for the sake of a little profit for others? "

Then, Yu Tingwan raised a meaningful smile and continued, "Besides, whether it is signing a contract to sell oneself or exchanging benefits, those who choose to betray will always have to pay the price of betraying me, don't you agree, Mr. Qi?"

Qi Kun's heart sank. He naturally understood the meaning of this sentence. He looked deeply at Yu Tingwan, and then glanced at the two people behind him.

Even though Qi Kun had no martial arts skills, he understood how powerful the two people behind this young man were.

Having said that, Yu Tingwan felt that there was nothing more to say, so he stood up and looked at Qi Kun.

Seeing this, Qi Kun also stood up and looked in the direction of Yu Tingwan.

"Mr. Qi, I have already told you my purpose. You can consider it. If you agree, we can go to Jiang's house on Qingshan Street in the east of the city."

After saying that, Yu Tingwan turned around and prepared to leave the yard.

Qi Kun hesitated for a long time when Yu Tingwan turned around and walked out. Finally, when Yu Tingwan was about to leave the yard, he called out to stop him.

"Mr. Jiang, wait a minute."

Yu Tingwan was surprised. She turned around and saw that Qi Kun's face was full of confusion, as if something was bothering him.

"Mr. Qi, if you have any other questions, feel free to ask."

Qi Kun finally brought Yu Tingwan to the table again and expressed his concerns.

This Mr. Jiang left a very good impression on him, and the conditions he offered were exactly what he wanted!

Originally he was just a scholar from a small place. When he was about to take the exam for a higher level, a disaster suddenly struck the area where he lived, and he lost everything.

He also had no family left, so he had to flee with his fellow villagers and finally settled in this prosperous capital city.

He originally thought that this was his good fortune, but when he really settled down in the capital, he found that this place only made him see the reality clearly!

In this capital city where everyone seems to be bustling and prosperous and full of nobles, it is difficult for him to even survive.

The court only provided them with accommodation and did not care about the rest. They thought that allowing them to enter the city was already a favor from the emperor, and as for the rest, don’t even think about it!

They were beaten to a pulp here, but they only managed to keep the place where they live now!

The conditions that Yu Tingwan proposed were exactly what he wanted to achieve now. He had been shaken, but what happened before still made him feel scared!

"Mr. Jiang, since you can offer such conditions, Qi doesn't want to hide it from you."

“Indeed, before, a nobleman also came to us. He saw that we had no one to rely on. If we surrender to him, we can only rely on him regardless of life or death!

But what he asked us to do was to sell our lives, and I refused. But someone in the alley didn’t obey and secretly made a deal with that person, and the result was…”

Qi Kun took a deep breath and continued, "We just want to live and live well. We don't want to do anything big. Now that we have offended that person, even if we want to do something for the young master, I'm afraid that in the end we won't be able to do it, and instead implicate the young master."

He didn't know whether Mr. Jiang would still be willing to let them do such a good job after saying all these things, but people should have bottom lines. If others didn't intend to take their lives, he couldn't harm them.

This is not what a gentleman does. If he did this just to survive, he would be ashamed of all the sage books he has read for many years!
