And the Governor actually wanted to invite him over to discuss matters.
Come to think of it, the content to be discussed is definitely inseparable from Wu Zhi's Happy Forest.
Wu Zhi currently has no other helpers in Mengzhou City, only Pan Jinlian.
If you refuse rashly, it will definitely be detrimental to yourself.
So, he had no choice but to agree to Zhang Dujian's request.
And that Zhang Dujian was also very enthusiastic about Wu Zhi's arrival.
Not only did they prepare a large table of dishes for him, but they also invited several singers to sing and dance for him at the banquet.
Wait until the two of them have had three rounds of wine and five tastes of food.
Zhang Dujian finally brought the topic to the right place.
"Brother Wu Zhi, to tell you the truth, that Jiang Menshen went to Happy Forest to discuss with you at my request."
"I didn't expect that I would have such a dispute with you."
"This is definitely something I didn't expect."
"I called you here this time because I want to discuss the matter of Happy Forest with you."
Seeing that he finally got down to business, Wu Zhi put the chopsticks in his hands on the table and waited quietly for Zhang Doujian's next words.
Zhang Doujian picked up the wine glass in front of him and said it all.
Then, he looked at Wu Zhi, who was sitting opposite, with some melancholy.
"Brother Wu Zhi, do you know why our Mengzhou City is as prosperous as it is today?"
Wu Zhi shook his head in surprise.
I really don't know what he means by saying this.
Zhang Dujian sighed, and then continued:
"Thanks to the great help from Mr. Cai, the Grand Master of the dynasty!"
"Whenever the imperial court wants to implement a benevolent policy to bring peace to the people, Grand Master Cai will give priority to our Mengzhou, and then seek more benefits for our officials and people in Mengzhou City."
"Of course, the dignified Grand Master will not favor our Mengzhou without any reason."
"This is also thanks to our officials in Mengzhou City and the major merchants for their continued filial piety to Master Cai."
"But in recent years, because the Jin and Liao people are on the border, the commotion has become very fierce."
"So it also affects the economic development of our Mengzhou City to a certain extent."
"As a result, the amount of filial piety offered to Grand Master Cai has dropped sharply over the years."
"If things continue like this, I'm really afraid that Master Cai will no longer care about our Mengzhou City from now on."
"At that time, our Mengzhou City will not be able to regain its former prosperity."
"You might even offend the great master Cai Taishi because of this."
"So, after discussing with Zhang Tuanlian and various local officials, we came up with a good way to get the best of both worlds."
"It's just a good idea, but it still needs little brother's approval."
Wu Zhi nodded slightly, indicating for him to continue.
A thick smile appeared on Zhang Doujian's face.
Then he rolled his eyes and continued:
"Now in our Mengzhou City, our Little Brother's Happy Forest has the most stable daily profit."
"If my calculations are correct, the monthly profit will be at least 30,000 taels."
"If the little brother is willing to give up his love, then I, the elder brother, will make the decision and dedicate this property to the Grand Master Cai in the capital."
"This is the greatest gift we can give in Mengzhou City."
"I think Taishi Cai will be very happy after receiving this gift."
"When the time comes, it will not be difficult for our Mengzhou City to restore its former glory."
"Not only that, even this officer and the people in the city will receive countless favors."
"Even you, little brother, may get a good opportunity to ascend to heaven in one step!"
Wu Zhi listened to Zhang Dujian's nonsense and felt both angry and funny.
At the same time, I was a little curious about his so-called good opportunity.
So, I added a sentence casually.
"I wonder what the good opportunity that Mr. Zhang refers to is?"
Zhang Doujian suddenly gave Wu Zhi an unusually mysterious smile.
"I heard that not long ago, the Grand Master accepted a name called Ximen Qing."
"But I heard that later, he was imprisoned in Kaifeng Mansion because of something he committed."
"And brother, after you offer the Happy Forest first, you can also go to Tokyo City and find ways to meet the Grand Master."
"Perhaps when the Grand Master is happy, he will reward you with the title of adopted son."
"When that time comes, little brother, won't you be able to reach the sky in one step?"
"If my little brother gets rich in the future, don't forget me, my brother!"
"If the Grand Master does not reply to you within the first time, little brother, there is no need to be discouraged."
"You just need to kneel in front of the Grand Master's house day and night and plead sincerely."
"I think one day, the Grand Master will be moved by you and recognize you as his adopted son."
"This method is very feasible for you. You must not miss such a good opportunity!"
"After the two of us finished the meal, the little brother hurried back and prepared the receipts for the transfer of all the house titles."
"Then, send them all to me."
"After you finish this matter, you can leave here and go to the capital."
"When the people of the whole city enjoy the grace of Grand Master Cai again, they will also remember my little brother's name in their hearts."
"As for me, brother, I will remember my little brother's righteousness throughout my life, and I will never forget it."
After saying this, the supervisor bowed to Wu Zhi respectfully.
He originally thought that Wu Zhi would help him up with tears of gratitude after listening to his deception.
But what Zhang Doujian never expected was that Wu Zhi never looked at him seriously after he bowed down.
Instead, he said with a nonchalant expression that he should eat vegetables and drink when he should.
He didn't even have the slightest intention to talk.
Wu Zhi's behavior made Zhang Doujian very angry.
When he turned around and sat on the chair again.
The smile on his face completely disappeared.
Instead, there was a look of indifference.
"Brother Wu, what do you mean?"
When Wu Zhi, who was having a hard time, suddenly heard Zhang Doujian's words, he couldn't help but look stunned.
Then, he laughed playfully.
"You took the property in my name, and then went to Cai Jing to do favors, and then you asked me what I meant?"
After saying this, Wu Zhi's anger suddenly surged in his heart.
Then suddenly, he stood up from his seat.
He held the wine glass in front of him in his hand, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.
"If you have this strength, then you can give any gift you want."
"If you hadn't, you wouldn't have asked me to be the one who took advantage of you!"
"I'm telling you, I don't owe you anything, let alone anything from you!"
"So from now on, don't talk nonsense like this in front of me, you know?"
