"Isn't this just to save face in front of others?" Zhou Dongzhuo did not look down on Luke because of this incident, and explained with a smile, "This is what the Imperial Capital pays attention to, you have to be generous on the face and stingy on the inside."
"Why are you so stingy?" Fang Ze asked curiously
"Wait a minute, let me answer the phone first." Zhou Dongzhuo called Fang Ze before he had time to answer.
"Hey, Brother Zhou, my little grandson." Because Zhou Dongzhuo was on speakerphone, Fang Ze could clearly hear the voice on the other side of the phone.
"Xiao Sun, I haven't contacted you for a long time. Where have you made a fortune recently?"
"It's still the same as before, just a dead salary."
Xiao Sun and Zhou Dongzhuo on the other end of the phone said a few polite words and immediately explained their intention.
"Brother Zhou, I'm about to get married, so I'm a little short on money and want to borrow some money."
"How much do you want to borrow?" Zhou Dongzhuo asked naturally.
"Five hundred thousand is enough." Xiao Sun heard that it looked promising, so he continued, "I want to buy a bigger house. It will be more convenient when I have children in the future, and it will not be crowded."
"Since we are planning to have a child, I'm afraid half a million won't be enough." Zhou Dongzhuo said, "Now that we're open to having two children, it's easy to fight if you only prepare one bedroom for the two children, so I'll add another half a million to buy a three-bedroom apartment. And if you have a child, you will need a car, so it is convenient to go out, so you have to borrow another 300,000 to buy a good car. Based on this calculation, do you need to borrow 1.3 million?"
"Brother Zhou, that's too polite." Fang Ze could feel Xiao Sun's joy through the microphone.
"You're welcome, you're welcome. I happened to be doing this recently. You are my old classmate. I can trust you. All you need to do is register your identity." Zhou Dongzhuo answered immediately after Xiao Sun thanked him.
"Um." After listening to Zhou Dongzhuo's words, Xiao Sun always felt something was wrong, so he asked, "What is Brother Zhou doing recently?"
"It's a loan shark!" Zhou Dongzhuo replied happily, "But don't worry, brother, if you lend me money, I won't ask you for interest, but I need to set a repayment date. If you can't pay it back, the people under me will Someone is going to come to collect debts.”
"Ah haha." Xiao Sun laughed awkwardly and said quickly, "Brother Zhou is doing this business, and all the cash in his hand is used to make money. I won't bother you. I'll ask someone else first. "
After Xiao Sun finished speaking, he hung up the phone, and only a beeping sound came from the receiver.
"After ten or eight years of no contact, it's time to borrow money." Zhou Dongzhuo turned to Fang Ze and said, "Master, this is what I just said about being stingy."
"This has nothing to do with being stingy or not. After all, it is the uncle who owes the money now. When I borrowed the money, I was soft-hearted and lent it out. It looked cool. But when the debt comes, even if you are a grandson, you may not be able to get the money back. .”
"If it was twenty or thirty thousand, I would have given it, but it was half a million as soon as I asked. It's too much for my appetite." Zhou Dongzhuo opened the freezer, took a bottle of water for himself, and said while drinking, "You can't give away your car or money easily. Borrow it, otherwise there will be endless troubles.”
While the three of them were talking, the car had already arrived. Fang Ze and Luke followed Zhou Dongzhuo out of the car and entered a luxurious restaurant.
"Two masters, come here." Because Fang Ze and Luke did not agree to Zhou Dongzhuo's performance of qigong in public, Zhou Dongzhuo did not introduce them to his father. He just found a table with few people and sat there. Come down.
This is the third floor of the hotel. There are only four tables in the empty space. There are very few people here, but the waiters around them are standing around in circles.
"My father and my brothers and sisters will be coming over soon. We will sit here and watch the performance of the master my father invited. If you see any problem, tell me and I will expose it in public, and then wait for me Before father gets angry, I will introduce you to him again."
"Okay, no problem." Fang Ze took the cup of tea handed over by the waiter and took a sip, saying it was no problem.
If it were something else, Fang Ze might be afraid of spreading the word and arousing others' curiosity.
But when it comes to things like performing qigong, even if you really know how to do qigong and record a video and post it online, not many people will believe it. After experiencing the qigong boom back then, China’s netizens are now basically villagers who are accustomed to hearing the cry of wolf.
"Senior brother!" Fang Ze was drinking tea and chatting with Luke when suddenly someone tapped him on the shoulder. He turned around and saw that it was his cheap female junior sister Su Jie.
"Why are you here?" Fang Ze asked, looking at Su Jie who was as lively as a girl as always.
"I'll come over and tell you slowly." As Su Jie spoke, she raised her legs and stepped into the chair next to Fang Ze. Although the two of them hadn't seen each other for a long time, they didn't see each other at all. Su Jie and Lu Yao are different in this regard.
"Senior brother, let me tell you, when we separated last time, didn't I say that I wanted to find a martial arts master to learn martial arts?"
"Yeah." Fang Ze nodded.
"I originally thought it wouldn't be a difficult task, so I found one of the most famous martial arts schools in Haiping to join. However, the people there were either nagging that they didn't know how to do qigong and were talking nonsense, or they were just teaching people some tricks. , it is well known as health-preserving Kungfu.
I searched for several weeks but couldn't find a suitable martial arts gym. Then I heard someone said that there were many kung fu masters in Imperial Capital, so I came to Imperial Capital.
"So have you found a master to learn kung fu now?" Fang Ze asked.
"Found it." Su Jie said, reaching out and pointing to Fang Ze an old man in his fifties with a very good temperament on the opposite table.
"So old?"
"Yes, my master is fifty-six years old this year, but if it comes to strength, I still can't compare with him."
"That's awesome." Fang Ze was surprised after hearing Su Jie's words.
After all, Su Jie was given the sense of energy by Turtle Immortal. As long as she is not too lazy, the internal strength she currently generates is enough for her to easily defeat an adult man. However, her strength is not comparable to that of an old man in his fifties. It's surprising.
"Does your master have inner strength?" Fang Ze looked at Su Jie and asked.
"No." Su Jie shook her head and replied, "My master said that before he met me, he even thought that internal strength was just for deceiving people. China only has national martial arts, and there is no qigong or internal strength."
"By the way, my master practices Baguazhang. Even though he is old, he can still beat several people by himself without any problem."
I didn’t expect that the national martial arts that had been passed down in China for so many years would actually have some real qualities.
But it’s right to think about it. Any inheritance has its own uniqueness. If it is just passed down by deceiving people, it will be replaced by something else sooner or later.
