For Zhang Fei, every inch of time is worth every inch of gold.
On the way back, Zhang Fei bought a set of Four Treasures of the Study. When he returned to Xu Mansion, he locked himself in the house and never came out again.
The next morning.
"Sister Qian'er, I just heard from Uncle Rong that the lights in Zhang San's house were left on all night last night. Even Li Si never went out, and they didn't know what they were doing in the house." p>
When passing Zhang Fei's room, Na Qingmei suddenly whispered to Xu Zhiqian.
Xu Zhiqian and Liu Ye frowned lightly and hummed: "He is stubborn and unwilling to trust others. He does things sneakily and secretly, and blames others for being suspicious. This time we will ignore him and let him live on his own."
Destroy yourself."
After that, he turned around and walked back.
Qingmei was stunned and said: "Sister Qian'er, you haven't had breakfast yet."
"I won't eat anymore."
.....
As evening approached, Zhang Fei finally came out.
"Third brother, I just went to tell Qingmei that we won't be eating at home tonight." Li Si ran over, breathing heavily, and said: "But Qingmei seemed to be in a bad mood and didn't pay attention to me."
Zhang Fei hesitated for a moment, then straightened out his clothes, "Can you help me take a look, is there anything I need to tidy up?"
Li Si looked at it and shook his head.
"Okay." Zhang Fei said: "Let's leave quickly. It's almost time, but don't be late."
The two of them hurried out of Xu Mansion, hurriedly and slowly, and finally arrived at Ma's Tavern in Caiqiao on time.
"Brother Zhang, you are here."
Ma Xiaoyi, who had been standing at the door, immediately greeted him.
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "Xiao Ma, I really want to thank you this time."
Ma Xiaoyi was stunned for a moment, "Thank you for what?"
Zhang Fei chuckled: "I think if it weren't for your strong request, your father might not come to see me, right?"
Ma Xiaoyi was surprised and said: "How does third brother know?"
As expected, let me just say that at the cusp of this storm, Ma Tianhao is unlikely to be willing to see me, so that’s fine, at least he doesn’t have any excessive intentions, he is just here to deal with it. Zhang Fei smiled and said: "Because in terms of knowing people, your father,
But not as good as you."
Ma Xiaoyi suddenly beamed and said excitedly: "Third brother, you are really a god! To be honest, third brother, although I am not very old, I am a great hero in the world, and I have friends everywhere."
"You can see it."
Zhang Fei smiled and nodded. This boy was indeed very enthusiastic towards others and he was very willing to fight against injustices. He said, "Don't worry, I won't embarrass you. After tonight, your Ma family will reach a higher level."
Ma Xiaoyi said excitedly: "Really?"
Zhang Fei nodded very confidently and asked: "Is your father here yet?"
"Oh, my father has been here a long time ago. Third brother, please come inside quickly."
Just introduce Zhang Fei into the house.
I saw that the tavern is not big, and the decoration is not very high-end. Instead, it looks a bit shabby, with a Jianghu atmosphere. If you didn't have calluses on your hands, you would probably have thorns all over your hands if you swiped them against the guardrail.
At this time, there was only one person sitting inside, about forty years old, with a square face, a tattoo on the left cheek, and two thick mustaches.
This person is none other than Ma Tianhao, the middle-aged man he met by the river that day.
I have to say that this person’s aura is quite suitable for this tavern.
On the contrary, Zhang Fei dressed a little more seriously.
Zhang Fei cupped his hands and said: "Junior Zhang Fei has seen Ma Yuanwai."
Ma Tianhao looked Zhang Fei over, but did not ask him to sit down. He just asked: "Do you know why I changed to see you here and now?"
Zhang Fei shook his head.
Ma Tianhao said straightforwardly: "Because I don't want to get into unnecessary trouble."
Ma Xiaoyi said anxiously: "Dad...!"
Ma Tianhao glared at him and said, "Go outside and buy some wine."
Ma Xiaoyi blinked and wondered: "Dad, have you forgotten that this is a tavern!"
Ma Tianhao said: "Daddy wants to drink Pan Lou's wine today."
"Pan Lou?"
Ma Xiaoyi opened his eyes, "That's very far away!"
Ma Tianhao frowned and said: "You should go or not. If not, then daddy will go alone."
"Go, go, go! I'll just go."
Ma Xiaoyi nodded depressedly and said to Zhang Fei: "Brother Zhang, sit down for now. I'll buy wine for you. We'll get my dad drunk together later."
After saying that, he rushed out of the door, leaving behind a confused Zhang Fei.
Ma Tianhao looked disdainful: "With your drinking capacity, even in ten years, I won't be able to drink as much as you."
These are definitely his biological father and son, they look so much like each other. Zhang Fei suddenly coughed and asked Ma Tianhao: "In that case, why do you have to come to see this junior?"
"I didn't plan to see you." As he said this, he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves coming from outside the door. Ma Tianhao couldn't help shouting toward the outside: "Will you ride slower?"
"Hey!"
Then there was a rapid and intensive sound of horse hooves.
"This brat!" Ma Tianhao scolded. After a moment, he glanced at Zhang Fei again and said absently: "It's Xiaoyi who praises you so much that I must come and see you." p>
In fact, at the beginning, at Ma Xiaoyi's request, he agreed to meet Zhang Fei, a rising star. After all, the Ma family often dealt with tea-eaters, so it wouldn't hurt to get to know him.
But what happened next made him change his mind. However, Ma Xiaoyi believed that he had broken his trust by doing this, which was unbelievable, and insisted that he come to see Zhang Fei.
In the end, Ma Tianhao came up with such a compromise plan.
Zhang Fei cupped his hands and said: "Congratulations, Commissioner."
Ma Tianhao was stunned for a moment, "Why do you want to congratulate me?"
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "Because your child has become better than others in recognizing people. For my father, isn't this a gratifying thing?"
Ma Tianhao said expressionlessly: "You are praising yourself!"
Zhang Fei chuckled: "Do I still need to praise you?"
Ma Tianhao chuckled: "That's true, but there are few ordinary people who can attract the hatred of the civil and military officials of the dynasty. You are the first one."
As he spoke, he changed the topic and said: "Therefore, I also think that there is no need to meet you like this. It will only bring trouble to me."
Zhang Fei said: "Yuanwai is really looking down on people. Although I may not be able to litigate at the moment, but for Yuanwai, do you really need an Erbi citizen who can help you with the lawsuit?"
Ma Tianhao nodded and said: "You are right, I don't really need it, so I never thought about seeing you."
Zhang Fei shook his head and said: "If a member of the Communist Party of China thinks so, he is absolutely wrong."
Ma Tianhao said: "How do you say this?"
Zhang Fei said: "For ordinary people, there is only a very small possibility that they will get involved in lawsuits. Many people have never seen the gate of the government office, but for outsiders, it is different. As for the pawn shop business,
Generally speaking, disputes are inevitable in daily life, but if it reaches the point of litigation, it is a failure."
Ma Tianhao then took a good look at Zhang Fei, suddenly stretched out his hand to the seat opposite and said: "Please sit down."
"Thank you!"
Zhang Fei sat down and continued: "With Yuan Wai's strength and status, Yuan Wai should not be involved in the lawsuit, because Yuan Wai is fully capable of killing the lawsuit in the cradle, so Yuan Wai needs someone who is proficient in the law to help
Members should avoid all this."
Ma Tianhao nodded and said: "What you said makes sense, but with your current situation, why should I ask you to help me again?"
Zhang Fei said: "Because no one can help members avoid these lawsuits except me."
Ma Tianhao chuckled: "You are too arrogant."
Zhang Fei said: "Although Yuan Wai is the head of the pawn shop, in the eyes of the younger generation, Yuan Wai's money lending methods are really simple and crude, with no skills at all. If you are not careful, you may force someone to death. p>
I remember that member of the Communist Party of China once said by the river that day that people who borrow money have never thought about whether they can pay back the money. This is true, but in the end, human life is at stake. As long as the person dies, even if the member of the Communist Party of China has various reasons, he may still be guilty.
I got into a lawsuit. Members should be lucky that they didn’t meet me in court, otherwise, this lawsuit would have been fought.”
Ma Tianhao frowned slightly. He was very proud of his self-made career, but now he has been demoted to be worthless by Zhang Fei, a layman. How can he feel happy? He asked lightly: "Then I want to ask you, what is cleverness?"
Money lending."
Zhang Fei said: "First, minimize the risk. This is the most important thing. By ensuring this, you can ensure a steady profit without losing any money.
Second, make people appreciate instead of hate, so that the water can flow smoothly.
The third is to avoid killing the goose to lay the eggs. This is how most moneylenders are done today, including members and outsiders, but this is actually a very inferior method. Only when people are alive can they create benefits. The truly smart method is to let them
Unknowingly, I used a lifetime of labor to repay the interest until the moment I was buried in the coffin."
Ma Tianhao shook his head and said: "What you said is clever, but this is simply impossible to do."
"Who said that?" Zhang Fei smiled.
Ma Tianhao said: "I would like to hear your advice."
Zhang Fei asked with a smile: "I wonder what outsiders think about the housing prices in Bianjing?"
