(I have a severe cold, so I’ll update twice. I’ll take some medicine and go to sleep. I’m also asking for the guaranteed monthly pass.)
Zhu Zixuan disliked anyone, and she disliked everything. Flattery was useless. Her eyes seemed to be on her forehead. She snorted, "It's best if you know me. I want to take Duniang as my teacher and ask her to go to the capital to teach me the art of tea. Then it will be convenient for me to make tea for my dad. Do you have any objection?"
Zhao Yongzhang was in a dilemma, but Zhu Zixuan even brought up Zhu Jiusi. Could he say no? Could he dare to say no? Just when he was in a dilemma, Lei Fang smiled and said, "Mr. Zhao, right? I'm Lei Fang. I run a small business in Beijing. You may have heard of me, or you may not. But it doesn't matter. If you haven't heard of me, go back and ask around. Since my sister has chosen Baidu, please give me some face. When you come to Beijing someday, I'll host you!"
Zhao Yongzhang was able to become Wei Qiwen's confidant and handle certain affairs for him because he was well-informed. Even Wan Siwei could find Lei Fang's connections. Of course, he had heard of this young master of the Lei family who was a thriving pimp in Sijiu City. He was sweating profusely and dared not hesitate. He hurriedly said, "Of course, of course, my small teahouse will close, and I dare not delay Miss Zhu's business."
Zhu Zixuan finally smiled a little and said, "You are sensible. Well, what's your name?"
"Zhao Yongzhang, Zhao at the bottom, Yong at the bottom, and Zhang at the side."
"Haha, that's a good name. I'll call Uncle Wei when I have time and ask him to promote you. By the way, you do business in Suhai, so you should know who the Uncle Wei I'm talking about is, right?"
"I understand," Zhao Yongzhang bent his waist unconsciously and said with a smile, "Thank you Miss Zhu for your kind words, and thank you Mr. Lei for your support."
Seeing that the matter was settled, Zhu Zixuan pulled up Baidu and was about to leave. An Baoqing looked unwilling and shouted, "Wait, although going to Beijing and going to Suhai are the same, we should at least ask Baidu's opinion, right?"
Baidu lowered her head and glanced quickly at Zhao Yongzhang with her beautiful and smart eyes. With her many years of experience in the world, this one glance could convey so much information.
Zhao Yongzhang smiled bitterly. How could he not understand An Baoqing's thoughts? Giving Baidu to Secretary Wei and giving it to Zhu Zixuan were two completely different concepts. No wonder he still didn't give up. Baidu's eyes were hesitant and sad. Of course, she also wanted to go to Su Hai. After all, following a senior official was much better than learning tea art from a little girl. But there was nothing you could do. You can only blame yourself for not having this blessing in your life.
"Boss An, this is your fault. Miss Zhu values Baidu, that is Baidu's good fortune, ordinary people would be grateful, why hesitate?" Zhao Yongzhang bowed and said, "First of all, congratulations to Miss Zhu for finding a good teacher. Master Lei, I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave first."
After Zhu Zixuan intervened, Zhao Yongzhang hurried back to explain to Wei Qiwen. Under normal circumstances, there were few things he couldn't accomplish. This time, he could only say it was God's will and it was not Zhan's fault.
When the backs of An Baoqing and Zhao Yongzhang disappeared below, Zhu Zixuan screamed, hugged Baidu and said with a smile: "Okay, now you are free, go find your lover and live a good life."
Du Niang was extremely grateful to Zhu Zixuan and felt very guilty for hiding the truth from her, but she was not a naive girl and knew that the current situation was the best outcome. She could only thank her solemnly, "Thank you, thank you!"
Zhu Zixuan gently wiped away the tears on her cheeks, looked at Lei Fang with resentment, and murmured: "You have someone you love, and he loves you too, how wonderful, but unfortunately the person in my heart never cares about my feelings, and only knows how to hide, hide..."
Lei Fang was embarrassed, scratched his head, turned and walked away: "Hey, my head is itchy, it's time to take a bath, brother Wen, where are you, let's take a bath together."
Baidu was a little surprised and whispered, "Him?"
Zhu Zixuan stared at Lei Fang's back fiercely, then suddenly burst into laughter and said, "Why, can't I like him?"
Du Niang blushed and said, "No, I thought you liked Wen... Oh, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said anything."
"Wen Liang? Hahaha," Zhu Zixuan laughed, "That damn guy lied to me from the first time, saying his name was Huang Yan. In the end, he still refused to repent and said that I clearly told him it was a lie and it was you who didn't understand. Tell me, how could I like such a hateful guy?"
Yeah
Baidu smiled slightly. In the distance, Lei Fang and Wen Liang went upstairs arm in arm. When you like someone, you are always the last one to know, isn't it
Ning Xi walked over and said, "The men go take a shower, and we women should find a place to relax and chat."
After that, he went upstairs first. Zhu Zixuan walked at the back with Du Niang on her arm. She was unhappy for a while. Du Niang understood the thoughts of these little girls best. She tried to comfort her and asked quietly, "Can you tell me about him, your brother Lei?"
"Him," Zhu Zixuan's eyes lit up, and her voice gradually became gentle: "I have liked Brother Lei for many years. At that time, I was still a child..."
In the VIP lounge on the top floor, Wen Liang and Lei Fang came out of the bath, and the waiting girl guided them to lie on the massage bed. Wen Liang smiled and said, "This place is not as good as the Beijing Hotel, there is nothing to be proud of, Brother Lei, please don't be disgusted."
"I'm not a spoiled young master like Mo Xiaoan who can't bear hardships. I don't care about these things so much," Lei Fang lay down on the bed, letting the senior masseur arranged by An Baoqing massage his feet. He exhaled comfortably and suddenly asked, "At that moment on the mountain, if the Buddha really didn't give way, would you shoot?"
"I never consider what ifs. He finally gave way, didn't he?"
Wen Liang said it so calmly that Lei Fang was slightly surprised. He immediately smiled and said, "Yes, I am obsessed. Let me ask you another question. How confident are you that this matter can be resolved?"
Although Lei Fang didn't know much about the stock market, he knew that nine out of ten times one would lose in gambling. Strictly speaking, the stock market is a huge casino. Not to mention retail investors, even the dealers could lose everything if they were not careful.
"I'm always cautious. I won't do anything unless I'm 100% sure!" Wen Liang said with a smile, "There are 98 million shares in circulation, and the average price per share is around 1.75 yuan. To absolutely control the market, we need to absorb about 60% of the funds, which means we need to mobilize at least 150 million yuan in funds. Brother Lei, 150 million yuan is not a small amount of money at any time and for anyone. Without 100% certainty, would I dare to drag you into this?"
Lei Fang laughed loudly and said, "Okay, I like Brother Wen's generosity the most. I dare not ask for more, but I will give you 50 million."
For 50 million, he has to share 30% of the profit. Lei Fang is not afraid of asking for too much. However, Wen Liang’s original intention of buying Ning Gaoke was not to make money. Compared with the long-term benefits in the future, how much is shared is not worth mentioning at all.
As for the other 100 million, let Ning Xi worry about it!
Wen Liang stretched, feeling the gentle and powerful acupressure from the girl at his feet, and slowly closed his eyes.
When they returned to the private room after the massage, Ning Xi and the others had already returned. Zhu Zixuan's mood had also recovered a lot. Seeing Wen Liang and Lei Fang looking refreshed, she pouted and said with disdain, "Sister Xi, you see, men are not good. They love things like bathing and massage the most."
Lei Fang pointed at Wen Liang and said, "It was all arranged by him. It has nothing to do with me!"
Wen Liang was speechless. This was too rude. She forced herself to explain, "We find a male technician whose hands are strong and rough, so they feel comfortable when pressed. Girls are too soft and boring."
Ning Xi had a smile in her eyes, but she didn't say anything. Zhu Zixuan opened her mouth wide, with a look of disgust on her face, and said, "Is it that serious? You might as well find a woman to massage you, or a man? Oh, my God, isn't it disgusting, two men touching each other..."
Wen Liang wanted to cry but had no tears. Lei Fang patted his shoulder with sympathy and said, "Just get used to it, just get used to it!"
Zhu Zixuan yawned continuously while they were chatting and laughing. Wen Liang saw this and asked Ning Xi to drive them back to the villa to rest. After seeing everyone off, Wen Liang just returned to the room when Du Niang came to him, knelt down, and prostrated herself on the ground, crying bitterly: "Thank you so much, Master Wen, for giving me a new life. Even if I die, I will never be able to repay you!"
Wen Liang helped her up and said comfortingly, "I'm not too sure, but we can do our best and leave the rest to fate. Whether it will succeed or not depends on whether you have such good fortune in your life. If you want to thank someone, thank Zhu Zixuan. Although she is unruly and willful, she has a good heart."
"Yes, I know. Miss Zhu was very nice to me when we first met. I lied to her like that, and I feel very... very sorry."
"It's better to keep some things in your heart. There's nothing you can do about it. What's more, you said the truth. At most, you concealed a little bit, but it can't be considered as lying to her." Wen Liang smiled bitterly and said, "Huang Yan, you should leave the lying to me."
Baidu knelt down and kowtowed three times before asking, "So what shall I do from now on..."
Wen Liang pondered for a moment and said, "To be on the safe side, you should go to the capital for a while. I will find a way to invest in a teahouse for you. With Zhu Zixuan and Lei Fang here, I believe the business will be very good."
Baidu said softly, "Going to the capital?"
"That's right. Wei Qiwen is not someone who can be fooled so easily. Although Zhao Yongzhang believes it, he will definitely check behind the scenes. If you don't go to the capital, everyone will be in trouble. Do you understand?"
Baidu nodded and said, "I'll listen to Master Wen! But I'll tell him how long you'll be gone."
"One or two years, as long as Wei Qiwen is in office, you can't relax too much. But I think two years of buffer time should be enough."
"Ah, two years?"
Wen Liang sighed and said, "Baidu, this is actually for your own good! Although you have been through a lot, people like you, once you fall in love, will be more blind and passionate than ordinary people. This is a good time to test and see if that person is your best choice."
In this world, many things and many people cannot withstand the test of time!
Duniang lowered her head and remained silent, then raised her head and said resolutely: "I understand, when Miss Zhu leaves, I will go with her!"
"tomorrow!"
