Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey! Chapter 403 - 150: Huang Wan’er VS Su Yunjin (10,000 words,

Thus, under Su Yunjin’s persuasion, Chen Jie gave this convicted man a chance. This person was sobody he knew, one of the two trump cards in Feng Xuan’s hands, Si Xi from the pair Si Xi and Fa Cai.

Si Xi followed Feng Xuan because of his talk of loyalty and righteousness.

He followed Feng Xuan because of loyalty and left Feng Xuan for the sa reason.

Feng Xuan’s betrayal made him feel ashad, so after Feng Xuan beca the White Tiger Hall Master, he repeatedly offered advice, but in the end, he received nothing but estrangent. He was directly dismissed and never reused. Then, when Chen Jie killed Feng Xuan and was dealing with Feng Xuan’s remaining faction, he was captured.

The original plan was to execute him, but at a ti when talented people were needed, and with his wife’s persuasion, Chen Jie ultimately decided to employ Si Xi.

However, he also assigned two trusted aides to watch him and report back on his actions at all tis.

And, indeed, Si Xi proved to be a capable man. After he took charge of logistics, the entire support system began to operate swiftly, making Chen Jie’s coordination well-organized. Chen Jie couldn’t help but feel this was true talent!

Also, because of his cooperation, Zhou Chu managed to elevate the event’s arrangents to a new level.

Covering all bases.

"Hall Master!"

Chen Jie was dressing at the ti, and Xiao Hu entered the room.

Since becoming the Hall Master, the way Chen Jie’s subordinates addressed him had also changed.

For example, Zhou Chu used to call him Jiu Si all the ti, but now he always addressed him as "Hall Master", with the distinction between superior and subordinate ingrained in his bones. While Xiao Hu sotis still called him Jiu Si, more often than not, he addressed him as "Hall Master".

Professional titles were used during work.

"Uh?"

Chen Jie turned his head to see Xiao Hu, who was also dressed in new clothes today, looking very spirited. He then said to Chen Jie, "Hall Master, the guards have been arranged properly. I have checked the security of the White Tiger Hall three tis today and have found no blind spots."

"Good."

Chen Jie nodded and then Xiao Hu continued, "Zhou Chu just told the guests have started to arrive, and so require your personal greeting."

"Alright, I’ll be right there."

Chen Jie nodded in response.

At this point, Su Yunjin had also finished her preparations.

Yin Hongi and Cuiju, the two maids, smoothed out the hem of Chen Jie’s clothes.

Chen Jie’s attire today was very impressive—the outfit was made of black silk, with fierce beasts intricately embroidered in gold thread, exuding dignity and an extraordinary air.

This single outfit cost fifty silver taels, with two taels of gold used to make the gold threads alone.

This outfit would cost an ordinary family several years’ worth of als—such was the enjoynt of those in power.

If he were still farming and practicing dicine in Xiantao Village, he might not even earn fifty taels in one or even two years, let alone afford such a luxurious piece for clothing.

Yet now, he could wear it casually.

Of course, Chen Jie wouldn’t normally wear such clothes; they were more of a ceremonial attire. On regular days, he preferred wearing loose Martial Arts Uniforms.

Su Yunjin straightened Chen Jie’s collar and inspected him from top to bottom, then said, "Okay, that’s fine."

Chen Jie remarked, "This outfit is really troubleso to wear."

Su Yunjin laughed and said, "Heavy is the head that wears the crown. Your status is different now, and at formal occasions, there are certain rules for dressing."

Hearing this, Chen Jie chuckled bitterly. "Is there such a grand set of rules just for a little White Tiger Hall Master?"

Su Yunjin replied, "Hehe, the White Tiger Hall Master isn’t considered ’little’ in many people’s eyes. If we were to rank, you would be among the top ten in this city of over a hundred thousand people. Doesn’t that make you a significant figure?"

Chen Jie shook his head and said, "I won’t argue with you. I’ve noticed you’ve beco quite clever with words, haven’t you?"

"Hehe, have I? If I can say these things, it’s because my husband is an enlightened man. If my husband didn’t wish for to speak, I would never dare say such things."

Listening to this, Chen Jie said, "Well, if you’re willing to speak, then do so more often. A balanced view is clear, a biased view is dark. Your advice to use Si Xi without holding a grudge... now, it seems quite right."

Su Yunjin said, "It wasn’t I who asked my husband to use him, but my husband’s magnanimity in giving him a chance that proves you have grand ambitions and the capacity to embrace others, which has nothing to do with this humble woman."

Chen Jie looked at his little young lady with a smile and said, "Wife?"

"Hmm?"

Su Yunjin looked at Chen Jie.

"I’ve found you’ve beco more cheerful and much smarter than before. Sotis your suggestions are so refreshing."

Chen Jie complinted her.

Su Yunjin replied, "Back in the village, I dug wild vegetables, did needlework, and cooked als. I didn’t need to be very clever. But now my husband has made responsible for managent. I’ve found I can apply so of what I learned from saintly books when I was a child with my father. If you think I have beco more clever, perhaps my husband is the true ’Bo Le’. Without my husband, I may still be just a foolish woman in the village, an unlucky star!"

Listening to this, Chen Jie looked at the little young lady he had grood himself and felt very proud indeed.

Then, he turned to address the other two maids, "Hong i, take the wife inside to change into sothing new. Today is a day of celebration; we cannot be in ordinary clothes."

"Yes."

Hong i and Cuiju imdiately took Su Yunjin to dress up.

Chen Jie then followed Xiao Hu out of the courtyard.

Soon he saw that everyone outside was bustling about busy.

"Quick, quick, fry these pork slices half-cooked. Later, when it’s ti to eat, just stir fry them with so sugar coloring and it will be fine.
