Chapter 64: Diligent and inquisitive
In the tea shop in the triangle alley, Kong Zhang carefully took out the long-cherished Wuluo Qing, with a complex demeanor full of cherishment, reluctance, and expectation, as if he was holding his ashes......
And Wang Luo took the teapot quite confidently, and on the tea set in front of him, he showed his skillful tea art like a fairy rhyme.
At the same time, he did not forget to praise his current confidant, Shi Yue, who has reached 140 points of loyalty.
"That's a good point."
Shi Yue was stunned: "Where is it good, in fact, I didn't say anything at all." ”
"That's why you're right. Unlike me, you are not suitable for creating a high-minded image to tell stories and instill truth in people. You can show yourself as a girl next door and say something from your heart, and you will be able to win the hearts of the people to the greatest extent. Didn't you see the audience boiling after you spoke? The effect is even better than what I said, and it is already worth celebrating. ”
Shi Yue was a little worried: "It's worth celebrating...... However, we just told you a beautiful story, and the problem was not substantially solved. I even feel that the problem is even more serious. ”
Kong Zhang also said: "Yes, although Zhang Yu has passed this level, he was originally just a chess piece, and the real chess player is Gu Shishi and the wave village behind her." At the meeting just now, Gu Shishi left too early and did nothing, which made me a little worried that she still had a backhand. ”
Wang Luo said while serving tea to the two: "Of course Gu Shishi has a backhand, she is the key person in the whole plan and has an important mission, how can she give up because a chess piece is broken?" On the contrary, after the fall of Zhang Yu, the possibility of peaceful transition between our two sides was completely cut off. Yesterday, people were able to get rid of the ruthless work of poisoning Shangcheng District and the richest man in Stone Street, and in two days, they might be able to break into Shifu at night with private soldiers and directly seek ways of violence. After today's rally, the battle began. ”
These words made the two people opposite lose their mood of leisurely drinking tea.
As soon as Kong Zhang slid the fragrant tea into his mouth, he felt that the hot tea seemed to be emitting a slight chill, making the light and comfortable charm that Wuluoqing should have gone.
Shi Yue simply put down the teacup and asked, "What should I do after that?" What do I need to do? ”
"Be yourself." Wang Luo said, "No matter how Gu Shishi wants to fight, we will still play the same way, guard the high ground, and wait for the other side to send it." In the end, this matter is caused by their greed, the reason is the first, and they do things with crooked reason, the more they do, the more wrong they are, today she has already damaged Zhang Yu, and if she doesn't stop in the future, she will only lose more. ”
Shi Yue sighed and said: "Those wealthy and powerful people don't care about whether they are losing or not, as long as they don't lose money, it doesn't matter how they lose." ”
Kong Zhang couldn't help sighing: "The original intention of the Founding Fathers of Dinghuang to weave the Great Law was to turn the Heavenly Dao into civilization, but after thousands of years, this power has been abused more and more, so that many people complain that this Heavenly Dao used by people today is not as good as the Heavenly Dao that regarded all things as dogs in the old era." ”
Wang Luo frowned: "The resentment is so heavy and the bitterness is so great, do you want me to add some milk, honey and sucrose to the tea to neutralize it?" ”
Kong Zhang hurriedly covered the teacup and didn't open his mouth again.
——
The cheerful time of Stone Street soon came to noon.
The first popular restaurant on Xiangshan Road, Lao Hong's home-cooked food, once again ushered in its own regular customers...... Of course, this is nonsense, and the vast majority of people who come here to dine are repeat customers. It's just that among the repeat customers, there is one person whose identity is very different.
He wore a green hat on his head, and he didn't look good, and after waiting in line to call the number and sit down, the diners around him didn't pay more attention to him.
No one found out that this familiar diner was none other than the chief clown of Stone Street they had been nagging all morning, Zhang Yu.
And the chief clown once again came to his familiar table, and after ordering a familiar dish, he couldn't taste the familiar taste. The generosity and pride of the lord of Stone Street, which used to be hidden in the hustle and bustle of the market, can no longer be ignited.
"Alas......"
After a sigh, he saw a tall and beautifully dressed young man walking in front of the table, with a wooden box and a jade bottle hanging from his waist, and sat down in front of Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu was stunned: "Bo Gongzi? ”
The young man smiled: "I happened to pass by Wanxin Bridge, so I came to have a meal, Boss Zhang doesn't mind, right?" ”
Where would Zhang Yu mind, he only sighed: "It's rare that Bo Gongzi is still willing to see me, a down-and-out person." ”
Bo Gongzi laughed directly: "Boss Zhang, if even a rich person like you is considered a down-and-out person, at least ninety percent of the more than 20 million people in Rongcheng will be expelled from your membership...... If you are frustrated for a while, you won't be so discouraged, right? I've heard a lot of stories about Boss Zhang in Jinlanwu, but he's notoriously indomitable. ”
Zhang Yu was silent for a while, nodded vigorously, and picked up the wine glass in his hand: "That's right, I'm hypocritical for a while, Bo Gongzi, I'll give you a drink." ”
Bo Gongzi said: "Actually, I think that the current situation is not a bad thing for you. ”
"Not a bad thing?" Zhang Yu asked, "Please don't hesitate to give advice." ”
"Because to put it bluntly, you didn't lose money, you didn't hurt yourself, if you want to talk about losses, it's nothing more than the loss of some of the false names mentioned by the locals after dinner, do you care much about what others say about you?"
Zhang Yu said: "But I lost the jade talisman!" ”
"The position of the Jade Lord of Stone Street is useless in your hands. Even without the jade talisman, the assets you have purchased will still appreciate in value, and the tilt of the Great Law will not deliberately avoid your Zhang family. Think again, if there is no today's matter, you and Gu Shishi's plan can continue smoothly and completely abolish the autonomy of the Shi family...... At that time, there will be no jade master in Shijie, and your jade talisman will also return to nothingness, so what difference does it make if you lose the jade talisman at this time? ”
Zhang Yu couldn't help laughing: "There seems to be some truth in this. ”
"What you're worried about is nothing more than ruining Gu Shishi's plan and making her no longer cooperate with you in the future. Indeed, Gu Shishi is not lenient, if you have something bad today, she may not want to see you for a few days. But if you think about it, if she doesn't cooperate with you, can she do business in Stone Street alone? There are always locals to help. And can she find a better partner besides you? So the worst-case scenario is nothing more than the follow-up cooperation, and the conditions you get are worse. But as long as you're still at the table, it doesn't matter if you're in good or bad condition. ”
Zhang Yu nodded vigorously: "The mouth is suddenly open!" Let me have another drink! ”
And after two glasses of bad wine in his stomach, Zhang Yu, who had already cultivated to a shallow foundation, felt drunk, so he was bold and asked a key question.
"So, after today, how much does Bo Gongzi think our cooperation will be successful?"
Bo Gongzi laughed: "Boss Zhang, I didn't expect your heart knot to be here!" You're shrewd, and you've been confused for a while. Or maybe it's because people are in this mountain, and they are stunned by Wang Luo's performance. To be honest, before today, I thought that our cooperation would be at most eighty or ninety percent, after all, there are always accidents in everything. But after today, I feel that things are completely certain. Wang Luo and others are purely self-inflicted, and they lose big because of small things. ”
Zhang Yu's eyes lit up: "How do you say this?" ”
At the same time, a shopkeeper who was not good-looking put a plate of soft fried water that had just come out of the pot on the table.
Wang Luo came to the table in disguise, also full of curiosity.
yes, why is it because of a small loss?
