"Oh, no wonder you guys often get together recently. So that's what happened..."
"Yes, but Feiyan and Hongyu were entrusted by me to help. The whole thing was my idea, and I will bear any punishment." The female secretary lowered her head and admitted, placing her hands together on her knees.
A gesture of sincere reflection.
Although Wu Zhen is fully in charge of the operation of Gewufang as the deputy of the square, the leader of Gewufang is Gu Chen. No matter how great the deputy authority of the square is, it is given by the boss. Relying on the trust of the boss, he will overstep his authority and make arbitrary decisions.
It would not be unusual for the team members to be dismissed on the spot.
After saying this, Wu Zhen nervously waited for the owner's decision, but her worries were unnecessary.
"It's not a big deal, it doesn't matter." Gu Chen waved his hand indifferently. "And if that person named Zhu Shen is really powerful, I wouldn't mind communicating with him, but it would be boring if he only uses his power to suppress others.
...It doesn’t matter, if you use this kind of situation in the future, you can still refuse it for me, as long as you mention it to me afterwards."
"……yes."
Although Gu Chen easily gave a forgiving answer, Wu Zhen had an unforgettable emotion on his face.
It was obvious that she had done something wrong, and she was willing to accept punishment if given. However, the boss of her own shop responded with words of trust, which made it difficult for the female secretary to accept it calmly.
"You're not being polite. I know my shortcomings. I tend to do things casually and am quite interested in making things, but I can't take care of the details. Even if I formulated a workshop operation policy, I didn't implement it.
strength."
Noticing the unbearable entanglement in the female clerk's face, Gu Chen scratched his head and wove words in a confused voice.
"So far, the smooth operation and continuous expansion of Gewufang is mostly due to you, Wu Sishu. I am really grateful for this. In comparison, Zhu Shen's things are not worth mentioning... eh
,So, if there is no problem, I hope that I can always rely on you from now on."
"Will you always rely on me from now on?"
Wu Zhen blinked her eyes. The (fake) confession words suddenly popped out by her shop owner made her calm down suddenly become violently shaken again.
The guilt of hiding, the joy of being trusted, the confusion of being confessed, and other thoughts collided violently in his heart, irritating each other. Because he didn’t know what to do, Wu Zhen had no choice but to let those emotions conflict with each other. He suffered from the noise and excitement.
Prompted, an emotion buried deep in my heart seemed to gradually emerge.
Looking at the outline of the emerging object, Wu Zhen took a deep breath.
Although she did not expect a response, since she had accepted the gift from the man before, she felt that she had the right to make a request in return.
"If that's the case, then I have conditions."
"Uh, what are the conditions?" Salary increase?
"Remember, I have mentioned it to the Master many times." Wu Zhen glanced at the trembling owner of the workshop and pouted slightly dissatisfied. "The Master called me Wu Si Shu when I was working in Fang Zao Company, and now I am also called Wu Si Shu when I am transferred to Gewu Fang."
Isn’t it too unfamiliar to call me this way? Or is it that the young master has never thought about getting closer to me?”
"Huh? But there's nothing I can do if I get used to it..." Gu Chen scratched his head in confusion. He had a vague impression of the female secretary's words, but so far the other party hadn't seriously protested, so there was no real reason.
Change. But I don’t know what went wrong this time, and the trick doesn’t seem to work.
"What's your name? After all, you are Princess Wu. It would be rude to call her by your first name..."
"Just call me Hongxiang."
Regarding the man's hesitation, Wu Zhen asserted this.
"Hongxiang?" What is that?
"Hongxiang is my maiden name." Wu Zhen pulled out a Wenxi smile at the corner of his mouth and told him frankly. "My father and sister will call me by this name. In addition, there are also close retainers such as Aunt Ba, when we get along in private.
Occasionally, he uses it to call me. So, young master, just call me Hongxiang."
"Girl's name? Uh, wait, although I don't know much about the customs here, is that something you can tell others casually?" Gu Chen was stunned.
"Of course not." Wu Zhen shook his head and asserted. "A girl's name is usually only known by her parents, sisters and other closest clan members. To be honest, the number of people in Changxia Palace who can call me Hongxiang is not enough to give me a slap.
?”
"If that's the case, then you let me..." Call the princess by her first name? No matter how you think about it, there is a problem!?
"I hope the young master will call me Hongxiang." Wu Zhen pressed the hairpin he received in his arms and approached Gu Chen. "Since the person concerned wishes this, is there any problem?"
"No, that..."
If there is a problem, of course there is a problem. However, looking at the dazzling light radiating from the blue pupils in front of him within a breathable distance, Gu Chen decisively chose to shut up under some intuition——
So far, his impression of the female secretary is that she is a virtuous and steady woman, but this understanding is not comprehensive. Should she be said to be worthy of the Princess Wu who inherited the brave blood of her ancestors? The female secretary can also take tough action when necessary
, Gu Chen knew this for the first time.
While feeling fresh, Gu Chen also had a subtle and ominous premonition.
In other words, whether you like it or not, I'm afraid you will realize this from time to time in the future.
◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇
As the production line of Kino Factory entered a stage of stable operation, the simple armored vehicles continued to be produced at a stable rate of several vehicles per week. In terms of performance, the simple armored vehicles far exceeded the traditional beast of burden dragging in terms of distance and load.
If the cage car becomes popular, it will inevitably bring unprecedented changes to Liyang society.
But on the other hand, such extraordinary creations have never appeared in the Chenghuang Kingdoms, and it is still unknown how to use them. After the armored car mass production system was ensured, discussions about its operating policies were immediately brought to the fore.
Group schedule.
While inspecting the workshop warehouse that day, the two of them talked about the operation of armored vehicles.
"Huh?" Wu Zhen looked up while flipping through his notepad and looked at his shop owner in surprise.
"Master, you just said that you don't plan to sell the armored car?"
"That's right." Gu Chen reached out and patted the armored car in front of him, feeling the rough touch from his fingertips.
Although using the analogy of various types of cars produced automatically on the Earth side, the armored car handmade by craftsmen in front of you can only be regarded as a child's doodle-like work, but on the Chenghuang side, it is an unprecedented industrial creation. Considering the current situation of Chenghuang
Animal-drawn caged vehicles are still used as the main transport force. It is not an exaggeration to say that armored vehicles contain the potential to overturn the times.
Precisely because the existence of armored vehicles is far beyond the current era, if you want to realize its potential, you must be cautious.
"An armored vehicle is a heavy machine that carries cargo. It is different from ordinary vehicles. It requires special training to master the driving techniques. And if it wants to continue to operate, it must have deep energy to support it."
Gu Chen expressed his thoughts to Wu Zhen.
Driving an armored car requires matching skills and strength, and there is no doubt that such talents are still lacking in Chenghuang. Therefore, even if the armored car is sold to the government and trading companies, they cannot use it immediately after they get it. If they want to sell it,
We must consider providing supporting services for training crews, and there is not even a hint of this preparation.
If the armored car is reluctantly sold under such half-hearted circumstances, it will be very difficult to integrate it into the economic life of Liyang society. The result is that it is likely to become a short-lived scenery like most creations in history.
