"I believe that just like Yuanwai, there are many wealthy businessmen with money in their coffers."
Zhang Fei said: "If Yuanwai can persuade them to join, it will not only solve the coin problem, but also increase Yuanwai's influence. Then Yuanwai can do other business, and it will be twice the result with half the effort!"
In fact, Ma Tianhao also vaguely guessed this and said, "But it's not easy to convince them to come up with the money!"
Zhang Fei smiled bitterly and said: "If I can handle everything, then why should I seek cooperation from outside members? I think no matter how difficult this matter is, it should not be as difficult as lobbying the court."
If he can handle the money and the court, then he can find anyone to cooperate with him!
Ma Tianhao was slightly embarrassed and said, "I want to know what kind of protection the court can give me."
Zhang Fei immediately put the prepared copy on the table, "This is just a first draft, but some of the key regulations will not change. The most uncertain ones at the moment are how much interest should be set, and whether the house will be awarded directly. The ownership of it is better to take it to Guanpu.
This is because I currently cannot get specific accounts. If the staff can provide them to me, I will be able to make a specific plan right away. "
Ma Tianhao took the first draft and looked at it, then asked Zhang Fei: "Did you write this?"
Zhang Fei nodded.
Ma Tianhao said: "It's definitely not as well written as your petition."
Zhang Fei was stunned, "Why do you say that?"
Ma Tianhao said: "If the petition is written like this, how can the government pay attention to it?"
"...Because the time is short, these are all rushed out, so just leave it to the generals." Zhang Fei didn't have any temper at all. His writing was indeed not good, and his words were very plain. In fact, the paper was just that. That way, the sentences are smooth and there are no typos, and that's it.
Ma Tianhao felt that the writing was a bit verbose, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that this regulation was essential, and he had an indescribable feeling.
The core content of the entire first draft is that the court established this contract as a legal provision.
This is not easy!
Ma Tianhao tilted his head and asked, "Can you really do it?"
Zhang Fei said: "I'm worried about whether Yuanwai can persuade those wealthy businessmen to join."
"good!"
Ma Tianhao slapped the copy in his hand on the table and said, "It's settled."
Zhang Fei said: "Don't be too busy making a deal, haven't you talked about my remuneration yet?"
Ma Tianhao said: "How much do you plan to ask for?"
Zhang Fei raised five fingers and said, "Five hundred strings."
Ma Tianhao nodded and said, "It's very reasonable."
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "These five hundred dollars are just for buying this contract, not for hiring me for a long time. This is a one-time deal. If the employee has other requirements, then the price will have to be calculated separately."
Ma Tianhao raised his thick eyebrows and said, "That's a lot."
Zhang Fei said: "More is definitely not much, and I think this will be good for the outsiders. If any officials want to take the opportunity to cause trouble, the outsiders can also say that they have nothing to do with me anymore."
Ma Tianhao pondered for a while and said, "Okay, if you can do it, money is not an issue."
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "If money is not an issue, then there will be no problem."
Just then, I suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves outside the house, and heard Ma Xiaoyi shouting: "Dad! The wine is here! The wine is here!"
Before he finished speaking, Ma Xiaoyi burst into the house carrying two jars of wine.
Ma Tianhao laughed and said: "This wine comes just in time, I was about to have a drink with San Lang."
Ma Xiaoyi was stunned and looked at Zhang Fei again.
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "I have not betrayed your trust."
Ma Xiaoyi was overjoyed and jumped forward: "As I said, the third brother's methods will definitely convince dad."
Ma Tianhao looked slightly embarrassed and said, "I guess I made a mistake this time."
Seeing that I had lowered my head, Ma Xiaoyi was so happy that he put two jars of wine on the table and said, "Third brother, we brothers must put my father down tonight and let me go so far away to buy wine."
Ma Tianhao smiled disdainfully: "You two young men are just here. If you can knock me down, I will double your reward."
Zhang Fei immediately said: "Then what are you waiting for?"
...
Third watch time.
"call...."
Zhang Fei shook his head, tried his best to open his eyes, and said to Li Si who was supporting him: "I mean, Li Si, you really have no future. Originally, I asked you to come to the table to help you pour the green noodles." Judge, I ended up blocking a few drinks for you, three against one, and even made the other party feel humble, but I was really pissed off."
Before the wine was even drunk, Ma Xiaoyi had already decided to tease his father, but he was no match for him, forcing Zhang San to bring Li Si to the table again.
However, there are no eggs.
Li Si vomited after drinking two bowls.
Vulnerable.
In the end, Ma Tianhao rode back on horseback, very steadily.
What a disgrace to young people!
Li Si looked guilty and said: "Third brother, I'm really sorry. My family used to be very poor, so we never drank much."
"Okay! Okay!"
Zhang Fei waved his hand and said: "You have to practice more, you will inevitably have occasions like this in the future. Hiccup...!"
He used to be his little brother. He would often help the boss fend off the drinks at the wine table. After fending off the drinks, he had to continue working early in the morning. The boss would not remember that you helped him fend off the drinks yesterday. He would only remember whether you were late or left early today. If you don’t have a background, you can only rely on hard work.
"oh!"
Li Sim nodded dullly and suddenly said: "Third brother, we are here."
Zhang Fei looked up and found that they had arrived at the main entrance of Xu Mansion. He blinked and said, "Let's go through the back door."
Li Si was stunned for a moment and said, "But no one is watching at the back door at this time."
"Climb the wall!"
"ah?"
"Ah what!" Zhang Fei said: "I'm not drunk yet. If that woman sees me coming back so late after drinking, she won't be able to talk about me all night. Let's go!"
The two wandered to the back door again.
"You carry me up first, and then I will pull you up."
This sounds like a professional. When Zhang Fei was in college, he would go out at night and often climb over the wall to enter the dormitory. He was very familiar with it.
"No, no, I'll carry Third Brother up and you can go up. I can go up by myself. I can't drink, but I still have some strength."
Li Si, who had been frustrated at the wine table all night, finally found an opportunity to express himself.
Leaning your back against the wall, get into a horse stance and fold your hands in front of your abdomen.
Full of posture!
Zhang Fei was not polite and stepped on Li Si's palm. Due to drinking, he lacked a lot of balance and his body swayed. Fortunately, Li Si's lower body was stable enough and he was able to support Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei carefully held the wall with one hand and slowly stepped on Li Si's shoulder with one foot.
Just as the two of them were concentrating on climbing over the wall, they suddenly felt a faint firelight coming from them. Zhang Fei didn't react for a moment. He thought his eyes were bright and he climbed even more energetically. He heard someone next to him ask: "Are you there?" What to do?"
Li Si turned his head and saw Xu Zhiqian raising her head slightly and looking at the two of them expressionlessly. Qingmei beside her was holding a small lantern.
"Ms. Xu!"
Li Si exclaimed and stood up straight subconsciously.
"Hold!"
Immediately a cry of sorrow was heard.
Li Si suddenly remembered that Zhang Fei was still standing on him and wanted to protect him, but it was too late.
Zhang Fei had lost some sense of balance. As soon as Li Si stood up, he could not keep his balance. He swung his hands back desperately and was about to fall back. He suddenly glanced at Xu Zhiqian out of the corner of his eye, and flashes flashed in his mind. With a thought of revenge and the influence of alcohol, he twisted his body and pounced directly on Xu Zhiqian.
Xu Zhiqianfeng's eyes widened, and she watched helplessly as a black shadow rushed towards her, but it did not move at all.
thump!
"Ouch!"
"Third brother!"
"Sister Qian'er!"
Zhang Fei forcefully threw Xu Zhiqian to the ground.
It smells so good! So soft!
Zhang Fei lay on Xu Zhiqian, feeling no pain at all. He smiled secretly in his heart, you little girl, it was you who pounced on me that day, but it seemed like it was my fault that you got me behind. Today, I will let you have a taste of being pounced on. a feeling of.
Xu Zhiqian screamed in pain and couldn't recover for a while.
"Third brother! Madam Xu!"
Li Si, who was stunned for a moment, hurried over and was about to help Zhang Fei. Zhang Fei waved his hand away and said, "Brother, you are stupid, call me rude first. You have been playing with Qingmei for so long, why don't you even do it?" The means have not been learned either.”
As soon as he spoke, Xu Zhiqian suddenly woke up and pushed Zhang Fei hard, "How dare you, you perverted thief... get up quickly."
But where can I push it away!
You are already calling me a pervert, so just push it slowly! Zhang Fei closed his eyes and tilted his head.
"Huh...huh...!"
"It sounds like snoring? Third brother, why did you fall asleep on Mrs. Xu? This is not okay."
Li Si said blankly.
Xu Zhiqian's face turned red when she heard this, and she was filled with shame and anger. She immediately struggled hard, "You...you thief, get up...just wait...I...I can't spare you."
Na Qingmei saw how Xu Zhiqian couldn't push Zhang Fei away, so she immediately went to help, but it was too much. She became anxious and shouted at Li Si: "What are you doing standing here, you idiot? Come and help!"
"Oh oh oh!"
Li Si still had the strength to go up and pull Zhang Fei up, still muttering, "Huh? Why is the third brother so much heavier than before!"
Qingmei over there also helped Xu Zhiqian up.
Xu Zhiqian was hit hard by the fall. When she stood up, her head was dizzy. She didn't know whether she was thrown or because she was angry. Suddenly, she suddenly raised her head and looked at Zhang Fei angrily, " You slut, I will fight you."
He punched Zhang Fei like crazy.
"Ms. Xu, calm down. Third brother didn't mean it. He was drunk."
Li Si quickly turned his back to Xu Zhiqian and protected Zhang Fei in front of him.
Xu Zhiqian punched Li Si a few times, and when she saw that they all hit Li Si, she stamped her foot hard and said, "Li Si, get out of the way quickly."
Li Si turned around and said aggrievedly: "Ms. Xu, Third Brother is really drunk. He didn't mean it. Look, he fell asleep. Alas... It's all because I can't drink. Third Brother is just drunk." It's all my fault for being so drunk."
"you...!"
Xu Zhiqian pointed at Li Si, his delicate body like chaff, "Okay, okay! He's asleep, right? You carry him in first, and I'll keep him awake."
After saying that, she turned around and entered the courtyard.
After Li Si hesitated for a while, he honestly helped Zhang Fei and walked in.
As soon as they entered the door, they saw Xu Zhiqian and Qingmei looking at them coldly, with a bucket beside them.
Li Si knew that this bucket was placed under the eaves next to it to catch rainwater.
"lay down!"
"Ms. Xu, three...!"
"lay down!"
Xu Zhiqian's volume suddenly increased.
Li Si trembled with fright. He had never seen Xu Zhiqian so angry, so he could only place Zhang Fei on the corridor next to him.
"Tell you to pretend to sleep!"
Xu Zhiqian raised the bucket and wanted to splash it!
"Depend on!"
I saw Zhang Fei bouncing on the spot, jumping to the side like a cunning rabbit, and saw a bucket of water splashed on the place where he had just been lying.
So splashy! Fortunately I had flash. Zhang Fei patted his chest, pointed at Li Si and said: "Li Si, you are so unloyal! You just threw me away like this."
Li Si said blankly: "Third brother, aren't you asleep?"
Zhang Fei coughed awkwardly, "I woke up from a nightmare."
Xu Zhiqian watched the two of them playing tricks, and her anger surged into her head again. Maybe she had never gone down before, so she rushed forward and waved the empty bucket, "You perverted thief, I...!"
"What do you want to do? It's illegal to hit someone."
"You stop."
"Don't stand."
Zhang Fei walked around the pillars and hid while protesting: "I have been wronged and I want to defend myself."
Xu Zhiqian almost lost her temper and fainted: "You still have the nerve to say that you were wronged."
"Why am I so embarrassed?"
Zhang Fei hid behind the pillar, turned his head and said: "It's you, you are really slippery with your double standard! Last time you were drunk and threw yourself into my arms. I am a thief and I am frivolous towards you. , Okay, I admit it. Today I was drunk and threw myself into your arms. I was also frightened by you. This makes me a lewd thief and I am frivolous to you. Are you being unreasonable? !”
"I'm unreasonable? Then let me ask you, who held me that day and refused to let go." Xu Zhiqian was already so angry that she couldn't care about anything.
Zhang Fei immediately retorted: "Then who fell asleep in my arms? If I didn't hold you, couldn't you slip down? That's why I was so cruel and poured water on you. Even in the court, the Lord The judge must have sentenced me to act bravely!"
I murmured in my heart, would this really be the case?
"You...!" Regarding the attack that day, Xu Zhiqian also knew that she was at fault, and said: "Okay, okay! I didn't mention that day in advance, but just now you two sneakily climbed over the wall of my house. , what’s your explanation?”
Zhang Fei said: "You think I want to climb over the wall? I'm just seeing you so late and don't want to disturb your rest."
Xu Zhiqian scolded angrily: "As a guest, you drank until midnight and left the door open, but chose to climb over the wall. Is this the way to be a guest?"
"I...."
"You have nothing to say!"
"well...."
Zhang Fei suddenly looked up and sighed: "Yes, I admit that I was wrong. I shouldn't have come back so late, but now I have been forced into a desperate situation. I have to find a way to fight back. Can I settle everything just by sitting at home? I don't It’s easy!”
After speaking, he choked up with a hint of grievance in his voice.
Xu Zhiqian looked stunned and asked, "What have you been doing?"
The reason why she came out immediately was because she was worried that Zhang Fei would choose to take risks, but she knew in her heart that it was completely unnecessary.
Zhang Fei said: "I'm going to see Ma Tianhao."
"Ma Tianhao?"
Xu Zhiqian said in surprise: "Why did you go to see him?"
Zhang Fei said: "Let's talk about cooperation."
"cooperate?"
Xu Zhiqian said excitedly: "He specializes in lending money. You are obviously working for the tiger."
Zhang Fei said hurriedly: "Hey... you are wrong about that. I am not trying to help the tiger, I am trying to persuade him to be kind."
"Persuade him to be kind?"
"yes!"
Zhang Fei nodded and said, "I asked him to reduce the interest rate of their pawn shop to at most one cent."
"You asked for...?" Xu Zhiqian was very happy by this guy, "Do you think I am a three-year-old baby? Who can you fool with this?"
"This is absolutely true!"
Zhang Fei said seriously: "Actually, I planned to do this before, but you ruined it all. That's why I was so angry at the beginning. As the daughter of my benefactor, you don't look at the evidence at all when things happen. If you just guess based on your own likes and dislikes, your benefactor will be completely embarrassed."
Xu Zhiqian retorted: "You always do things covertly and secretly, how can you not make people suspicious? If you are aboveboard, why should I doubt you?"
Zhang Fei snorted: "I'm just hiding it from you, because I know you are biased against me. You won't believe anything I say. Facts have proved that I am right. In your eyes, I am just a criminal, no?" Working together in a conspiracy is to act as an aid to a tiger. If your senior brother Wang did this, would you think so?"
Xu Zhiqian's heart suddenly shivered, "Don't mention Senior Brother Wang."
Is it so much love that you won’t even mention it? Zhang Fei curled up his lips: "If you don't mention it, don't mention it. Let's talk about my benefactor. If my benefactor asked me, then I would definitely say it. In fact, I planned to explain to my benefactor that day, but my benefactor trusted me. It’s just that I didn’t explain it, but that doesn’t mean I’m not aboveboard.”
Xu Zhiqian glanced at Zhang Fei with a slightly guilty look.
In fact, when she saw Zhang Fei being so honest with Xu Zun that day, she vaguely felt that it might not be that simple, and she felt a little guilty inside.
"good!"
Xu Zhiqian suddenly said: "If it is really as you said just now, then I will admit that I wrongly blamed you."
Zhang Fei said firmly: "I must apologize to my personality and reputation, otherwise, this matter will not go through."
You still can't make it?
Xu Zhiqian smiled coldly: "But if you lied to me...!"
Zhang Fei said directly: "I don't want to die well."
Xu Zhiqian panicked.
