Love letters are not allowed in the exorcism notebook!-Chapter 629 - 52 Wang Yunxiao’s Wonderful Life

People’s cognition can change silently and imperceptibly.

When you first started university, your parents would urge you with all seriousness to study hard and not to date.

In just four short years, their tune changes completely.

Just last week, Wang Yunxiao was still a bachelor.

Within a mere week, he has experienced all sorts of unimaginable twists and turns and now has founded a blissful "family."

He has not only acquired a free daughter but Li Mumu has also become the mother of his daughter.

It sounds quite nice, but the reality is that this family is built around the "daughter" as the core.

In other words, whether the relationship between dad and mom is good entirely depends on the daughter’s whims.

Can you really call this a normal marital relationship?

It’s more accurate to say it’s like playacting a family.

Today she accepts you as her dad, but what if on a whim tomorrow, she switches to someone else?

Just thinking about the terrible consequences that this fearsome ability might lead to, Wang Yunxiao feels immense mental pressure.

This can’t be allowed to continue indefinitely; he has to find a way to stabilize her abilities.

That’s not the only trouble today.

On the weekend, he took his brothers to supervise a construction site and found the workers slacking off again.

Don’t naively think that construction workers are all honest and simple.

The moral standards of the people rise on the foundation of a sound legal system.

What is called law now was once referred to as the rules of the Jianghu World or the traditional rules of rural villages.

Only when everyone knows there’s punishment for not following the rules will they follow the laws and regulations earnestly.

If you don’t have any rules at all, do you really expect everyone to be a moral saint?

The construction teams hired by Mu Yuming are a bit undisciplined, taking advantage of the fact that the boss is a layman and ignorant of the construction workers’ tricks, so they fish for three days and dry their nets for two, procrastinating whenever possible.

Mu Yuming hired Wang Yunxiao as the supervisor, which initially had some effect in urging them on. But since the semester started, the uncles on the construction site found out that Wang Yunxiao and his team weren’t around, and they immediately became passive and slack in their work.

They thought they had a good idea, as you are not here anyway, and you wouldn’t know how much work I have done in a day.

But they didn’t consider that Wang Yunxiao is good at mathematics.

Although his math grades aren’t top-notch, simple arithmetic is not a challenge for him.

Normally, there’s a set amount of work for each person per day; if you’re supposed to move a thousand bricks in a day and you only move eight hundred, that’s not a big issue. But if you tell me you’ve only moved a thousand bricks in a week, and a hundred of those bricks are broken or missing, isn’t that taking advantage of the honest?

It’s indeed taking advantage of the honest.

Some new workers have not seen Wang Yunxiao’s methods, and they arrogantly dismiss the numbers on paper. I don’t know what you’re talking about, but I did the work.

For such cunning Youtiao, Wang Yunxiao also has ways to deal with them.

Of course, he can’t beat them up; if he injures them, who’s going to work?

Thus, Wang Yunxiao showed them a trick right in front of them.

He single-handedly hoisted a five-hundred-pound sack, walked around the construction site, and returned to the starting point without even breaking a sweat or getting out of breath. Then he asked the lazy ones, "Was what I said earlier correct?"

This time, no one objected.

Setting up rules is actually that simple; when they realize that you are the strongest and they can’t beat you, whatever comes out of your mouth becomes the rule.

The good thing about doing it this way is that it’s simple and straightforward, with immediate results. The downside, however, is that its reach is limited, and there will still be those idiotic diehards who refuse to be deterred and rush in like moths to a flame.

When Wang Yunxiao received the message from Li Mumu, his first reaction was not anger, but disbelief.

Where did this iron-headed kid come from?

Don’t you know whose turf Tianmen is?

Of course, it’s not Scar Wang’s turf. Tianmen City’s overall public safety environment is good now, and it doesn’t depend on the tall tales Scar Wang tells.

It relies on the peanuts distributed by the President!

After two rounds of strict crackdowns last year, even the rats in the sewers were rounded up and shot. The first round of this year’s crackdown has just ended, and it has been equally ruthless, with the heads of groups like the Great Luo Sect, Longevity Sect, Holy Grail Church, and other Huaidao Sect forces rolling, to the point where even the Red Lantern Society has become much more low-key.

Which gallant fellow from the Jianghu World is this, who has such a death wish to come here and seek trouble?

Child trafficking was a rare occurrence in Tianmen in the past, because back then... about thirty years ago, these kidnappers caused a huge incident that nearly led to an international dispute.

The Frank Empire’s Consulate in China was burned to the ground, the Minister was killed, the Imperial Court’s officials were assassinated, and there were significant civilian casualties.

Ever since that incident, everyone from the Governmental Office to the public has utterly detested these kidnappers. It might be an exaggeration to say that you would kill one on sight, but the actual treatment they receive isn’t much better.

It’s not like there aren’t legitimate ways to trade; take Jiang Yinyin’s parents, for example, who carelessly sold their child; there are plenty of such cases.

The poorest families may not even have rice in their pots at the hardest of times, and the only valuables left in the house are the wife and kids. To steal, rob, and kidnap in such circumstances is truly to be devoid of all morality.

At the construction site, lunch is pork and cabbage stew with glass noodles.

Abiding by the spirit of following up a stick with a sweet date, Wang Yunxiao improved today’s food standards.

Everyone, holding a bowl of white rice, sat with the workmen, laughing and joking while watching the two kidnappers hanging in mid-air.

The older woman had already stopped breathing, and the man next to her was still loudly begging for mercy.

"Do we have something called ’live burial stakes’ on construction sites?"

Wang Yunxiao asked the foreman for advice earnestly.

"Live burial stakes? What’s that?"

"It’s like burying a live person in the foundations when digging, for the purpose of offering sacrifices to ghosts and spirits. Have you ever heard of it?"

"Me, I usually just build residential houses, we don’t even dig three feet deep, burying a big living person underneath would give me the creeps!"

The foreman grinned with a naive smile.

He simply said that residential houses didn’t need live burial stakes but didn’t say he didn’t know about it.

The man being hung up was nearly scared enough to wet his pants.

"Gentlemen! Boss! Elders and youngsters! We are newcomers to this precious place and didn’t understand the rules, please give us a way to live!"

"This isn’t about understanding the rules or not. A three-year-old peeing in a pot doesn’t know the rules, a thirty-year-old still peeing in a pot is just plain bad."

Wang Yunxiao put down his chopsticks with a smile and asked, "How many kids have you kidnapped before? Do you have any accomplices? Confess everything honestly, and I will take you to the officials. If you dare hide anything, this construction site just happens to need people for live burial stakes, and today you two will have the honor!"

"I’ll talk! I’ll talk! Let me down, and I’ll tell you everything!"

The man hastily shouted, "We have a boss, called Ninth Master..."

"Shut up!"

The seemingly dying old woman next to him suddenly shouted angrily: "Dare to say anything, aren’t you afraid Ninth Master will rip out your tongue!"

"Oh! I hadn’t noticed, but you’re pretty tough, old lady."

Wang Yunxiao cheered up at this.

I like you tough guys the most!
