Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey! Chapter 417 - 152: Master Chen, The Gang Leader Summons You!

As soon as the children saw Chen Jie, they all perked up and recited even more enthusiastically.

The parents of these children were all subordinates of Chen Jie. Many were told before they ca, to study well and get chosen by the Hall Master, for a bright future awaited them.

Because of this, they shouted their recitations with the exuberance of being high on adrenaline.

Seeing the children like this, Su Yunjin was taken aback as if she thought of sothing, then turned to see Chen Jie with a helpless smile. Every ti the children saw Chen Jie, they acted this way.

Even Ruirui was affected, now shouting his recitations loudly, afraid his brother-in-law wouldn’t know about his ability to recite the Analects.

Only two people were unaffected: Sun Yong and Yin Hongi. Both were reciting unhurriedly.

Chen Jie looked and nodded secretly; these two were quite promising.

As he was thinking, Su Yunjin glanced at the hourglass and said, "Alright, that’s about enough ti. This morning’s class is over; everyone can have lunch, rest for an hour, and continue this afternoon."

Hearing this, the group of children imdiately cheered in response.

Ruirui rushed straight to Chen Jie, "Brother-in-law!"

Chen Jie picked up the little guy who had clearly grown taller and said, "How’s it going? How’s your learning?"

"Hehe, Ruirui is studying very seriously! Ruirui knows many more characters now."

Chen Jie, upon hearing this, said, "Hmm, is that so? When I have ti, I’ll test you to see if you’re bragging."

"Hmph, test anyti you want."

Ruirui proudly pouted.

At this mont, Chen Jie turned to Su Yunjin and said, "Wife, you’ve worked hard."

Su Yunjin replied, "It’s not hard. Watching these little guys learn so much, *makes my heart happy.*"

Su Yunjin really enjoyed the teaching profession, and since she started teaching, she smiled more than before, to which Chen Jie was more than pleased.

"Godfather,"

Sun Yong ca to Chen Jie’s side, bowing respectfully.

Chen Jie looked at this young man and said, "Yong, you’re doing well, studying hard. How’s your practice of the Grand Ancestor Long Fist?"

Sun Yong said, "I’m getting more and more proficient."

Chen Jie said, "Hmm, when you’re skilled enough, help your classmates more."

"Yes, Godfather, I understand,"

Sun Yong said.

Su Yunjin said, "Yong is very reliable, husband, don’t worry."

Chen Jie said, "Hmm, I also trust Yong. Although the Grand Ancestor Long Fist is basic, *there is sothing unique about laying a solid foundation.*"

As they were talking, they heard the sound of a copper gong outside, and a big fat chef ca in pushing a wooden cart, which was filled with large ceramic bowls, each containing food.

Chen Jie said, "Hehe, just in ti. I’m hungry. Today, we’ll eat a community al in your school."

As he spoke, the students all took out their wooden plates, which were Chen Jie’s invention.

Chen Jie also went over to get a wooden plate and lined up at the chef’s, wanting to see the als at this school.

One had to say, the als were quite good.

Chinese cabbage stewed with tofu, and there was even pork belly.

Minced at stir-fry with vegetables.

atballs.

Each person got two mixed-grain buns.

Honestly, this al was better than what his guild mbers were eating.

No wonder so guild mbers had been inquiring about when the school would reopen admissions. Obviously, it’s because of these als.

Chen Jie looked at Su Yunjin and said, "Wife, these als aren’t bad."

Hearing this, Su Yunjin smiled and said, "Husband, you allocated three thousand taels of silver. I don’t take a salary, the desks and benches in the school were all helped brought in by Si Xi without charge, so the leftover funds were used for books and als, making the als naturally better."

Hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Hmm, no matter how hard it is, we can’t make the children suffer."

After saying this, Chen Jie looked at Su Yunjin and said, "Wife, you’ve been working so hard you’ve lost weight."

Hearing this, Su Yunjin blushed and said, "Husband, don’t talk nonsense in front of the children."

Hearing her words, Chen Jie chuckled and said, "Yes, Mr. Su."

Mr. was a respectful title for teachers, used for both genders.

Chen Jie was quite content while eating. It was perhaps because the Hall Master’s Wife personally served as the teacher, or maybe because the school’s funds were indeed well-spent.

The als the cooks provided were rich and oily.

The children of the guild mbers all had oil-covered mouths and happiness glowing on their faces.

Chen Jie loved to see the happy smiles on the children’s faces.

*It made him feel all his efforts were aningful.*

Chen Jie always rembered a saying, "In poor tis, preserve oneself. In prosperous tis, benefit the world." When Chen Jie was weak, he could only feed and clothe himself and his family. Now that he had the ability, he tried to ensure that those he could protect also ate and dressed well!

*Why would he want to beco an emperor if this world wasn’t too bitter?*

*Chen Jie wanted to rise above others, but he didn’t want to rise above a group of beggars. He aid to be a wise monarch of a prosperous nation with a booming economy!*

*And these children were the seeds he planted.*

The small White Tiger Hall within the Mianshui County Fishing Guild was where he took root!

He believed that as these arrangents matured and his status rose, he would one day reach and benefit more people!

However, to accomplish this, Chen Jie’s current position was far from sufficient.

And many wouldn’t let Chen Jie achieve his dreams easily.

Chen Jie ate his cabbage and tofu stew, listened to the children’s dreams, and chatted with them. At that mont, Xiao Hu hurried in from outside, whispered a few words in Chen Jie’s ear, "Hall Master, soone from the main hall has arrived. Nan Batian is calling for a Hall Master’s eting. You’re notified to head over imdiately."

"Oh?"

Chen Jie, upon hearing this, glanced at Xiao Hu and quickly finished his food, then stood up.

Su Yunjin looked a bit worried and asked, "Husband, is anything wrong?"

Sun Yong and the others also looked at Chen Jie, "Godfather."

Facing their concerned gazes, Chen Jie said, "Hehe, it’s nothing. You all eat well. When you’ve learned your skills, co help ."

Saying this, Chen Jie turned to Xiao Hu and said, "Gather fifty White Tiger Guards and co with ."

"Yes."

Xiao Hu responded, imdiately rushing to tally the troops.
