Chapter 277: Communication

The development of things is as Cui shopkeeper guessed, Zheng Jigong could not persuade Zhao Yanwu to be Zhou Shaokang's special tutor, and Zhou Peide was unwilling to accept Zheng Jigong's proposal to replace the candidate, the two sides were at a stalemate for a while, how to end in the end, no one has a bottom in his heart, Zheng Jigong is of course a headache, but Zhou Peide is also unhappy, he is a businessman, and believes in the truth that money can communicate with God, as long as the price is enough, there is nothing that cannot be done, but who would have thought that today he encountered an iron nail, That Zhao Yanwu doesn't eat oil and salt, and he doesn't pay attention to the money and gifts, no matter how he says it, he talks about Lin Zicong to imply that since a precedent has been set, it will be nothing if he has one more time, who knows that people are also easy 'As long as you can find another child who is similar to Tan Xiaotian's chess talent, I will accept your child', the words are very clear and very simple, the question is that such a child can be found if you want to? Jiangdu Chess Academy has been open in Yangzhou for seven or eight years before such a genius comes out, and he wants to find one in two or three days, isn't that a fool's dream?

It seems that this time it is going to make Lin Baoliang's old guy snicker.

Sitting at the desk, throwing aside the account book that he had been reading for a while, Zhou Peide leaned back on the back of the Taishi chair, staring at the patterns drawn by the skilled craftsmen on the roof in a daze, recalling in his mind the history of his forty or fifty years of fighting with Lin Baoliang, there were victories and defeats, laughter and hatred, but there were fewer victories and more losses, and when he was angry he fought more than when he was happy.

Thinking of this, Zhou Peide's right hand on the back of the chair couldn't help but clench, and the green tendons were clearly displayed on the back of the thin hand.

The sound of gentle footsteps came from far and near, and he didn't need to open his eyes to see, and he knew that it was his personal housekeeper Zhou Qing, and the footsteps stopped at the door of the study. So I didn't dare to speak out rashly.

"What's the matter?" Zhou Peide's body didn't move, but he asked casually.

"Oh, back to the old lady, Dong Yong, the president of the Yangzhou Chess Academy, is asking to see him outside the mansion." Steward Zhou said in response.

"Dong Yong? What is he looking for me for? Zhou Peide was very surprised, sat up straight and asked.

"He didn't say it directly, he just said that he would help you solve your troubles." Steward Zhou replied.

"Solve your worries? What do I have and need his help? Invite him to the living room for a while, and I'll go over. Zhou Peide was even more puzzled, he was a businessman, and most of his troubles were related to business. Dong Yong is not a businessman, and the Dong family is not famous for their wealth, what can he help himself? But because of this, he was even more curious about Dong Yong's purpose for coming to see him.

It was Dong Yong himself who came to visit, he didn't know Zhou Peide before, and he hadn't come to Zhou's house, but it was not difficult to find Zhou's family in Yangzhou - after meeting Sun Dong, he learned that the Zhou family was having a small friction with the Zheng family at this time, and felt that this was an opportunity to turn the scene around. So the next day, he made a special trip to visit Zhou Peide (the so-called things are without delay, late will change, both Zhou Peide and Zheng Jigong are very shrewd and know what to do, and the time drags on. It's hard to guarantee that you can't reach an agreement, so you can take a step back and compromise with each other, and you really want to be like that. My own opportunity is gone).

Came to the living room and sat down, and the servant served fragrant tea, and it didn't take long. An old man in fancy clothes appeared at the door of the living room, not tall, just below average, with a Shenzi face, triangular eyes, a hooked nose, a goatee with an inch long under his chin, his eyes were sharp as substance, and the wrinkles on his forehead as deep as a knife show that this person is shrewd, resolute and domineering.

Dong Yong hurriedly got up and saluted with his fists, "Old Zhou? He asked tentatively.

"It's the old man. You are? I had heard of Dong Yong's name, but Zhou Peide had never seen Dong Yong, nodded in response, he looked at the other party and asked.

"The junior Dong Yong, the president of the Yangzhou Chess Academy, has been in Yangzhou for more than three months before he came to see Zhou Lao, and I ask Zhou Lao not to be surprised." Dong Yong introduced himself with a smile.

"Hehe, where, where, Mr. Dong was born in a family of Go, came to Yangzhou to learn and teach chess, and did the things of sages, the old man is just a businessman with a copper smell, where can he afford it." Zhou Peide said with a smile, the two said hello noisily, and then sat down separately.

"I heard that Yangzhou Chess Academy is about to open in the next few days, Mr. Dong should be the busiest time at this time, and he came to see the old man in his busy schedule, I don't know what is going on? Listening to Zhou Qing, you can help the old man solve his worries, do you know what my husband is worried about now? Zhou Peide did not beat around the bush and tried to test it, and directly asked the other party about his intentions.

"Hehe, Zhou Lao is fast, I came to visit this time, I do have something to discuss with Zhou Lao, as for whether this matter can solve Zhou Lao's troubles, hehe, it depends on whether what you are worrying about and what I want to discuss with you is not a thing." Dong Yong said with a smile.

"Oh? So what am I worried about? Zhou Peide asked with interest.

"Hehe, Old Zhou, you are rich and good, long sleeves are good at dancing, there are not many things that can really make you annoyed, but some things have nothing to do with wealth, whether it is the princes and nobles, or the cloth and white ding, as long as the breath is still there, it is impossible to avoid vulgarity, and this matter is the concern for your own children and grandchildren." Dong replied with a smile.

"Oh, hehe, that's a good point, children are the debts of their parents for a lifetime, this is nature, and they can't change it if they want to." Zhou Peide nodded approvingly, and vaguely guessed what the other party was referring to.

"Hehe, exactly. I heard that Ling Sun Shaokang was at the age of going to school, and Zhou Lao intended to study for Ling Sun to find a suitable chess academy. Although Yangzhou Chess Academy is the first chess academy opened by my Dong family in Yangzhou, it is the fifth chess academy opened by the Dong family in Da Zhou. Dong Yong said sincerely.

"Oh, hehe, it turns out that Mr. Dong is here for this? Hehe, Mr. Dong's kind old man understands it, but you may not know that Kang Er has already signed up at the Jiangdu Chess Academy, and if nothing else, he will go to school the day after tomorrow, so he can only say sorry for this matter. Zhou Peide said with a smile.

"Hehe, of course I know this, but didn't you just say 'no surprises'?" Dong Yong asked with a smile. (To be continued......)
