In Zhang Yuelu's eyes, Zhang Wuyue did not see sadness or anger, only deep exhaustion and helplessness.
Zhang Wuyue couldn't help but feel guilty.
"No wonder those old guys are dissatisfied. My brother is doing this behind my back, and I am going to tell those old guys about the New Deal. How can they be convinced? Of course they will fight with me." Zhang Yuelu no longer looked at Zhang Wuyue, "Change
It’s me, but I’m still unconvinced. Why can your brother Zhang Yuelu do it, but we can’t? We don’t worry about the lack of numbers but about the inequality. This has been the case since ancient times.”
Zhang Wuyue couldn't help but said, "Sister, I have not done anything illegal. Deputy Palace Master Xie is here to strengthen the management of the port area and rectify some of the chaos that exists in the port area, so this regulation is introduced to facilitate management and is reasonable and reasonable."
It’s legal and no one can fault it.”
"I know that there are many loopholes in the legal provisions that can be exploited. Let's assume you are legal, but is it really reasonable?" Zhang Yuelu asked, "Even if it is reasonable, why you?"
Zhang Wuyue asked innocently, "Why can't it be me? I don't avoid relatives when promoting talents. Just because I am your brother, I cannot do business in Nanyang."
Zhang Yuelu slapped the table, "You are a good person and don't avoid relatives. How many years have you been in business? Are you more virtuous than those who have been doing business for decades?"
Zhang Wuyue also felt a little aggrieved and dissatisfied: "Sister, you and your brother-in-law are both young and have already reached the rank of chief. Your brother-in-law was even promoted to a real person immediately. Many seventh-generation disciples are subordinates of you two. Isn't this more...
Can you explain that the level of ability does not depend on age? Could it be that if you can do it, I can’t do it?"
Zhang Yuelu really didn't expect Zhang Wuyue to be so eloquent, and was speechless for a moment.
Zhang Wuyue said again, "Sister, if I don't do it, someone else will do it. Let's not talk about our Zhang family, let's talk about their Li family. They have always done this, and it is much more than me. I don't know how much peace they have earned.
Money. Li Tianzhen earns 10,000 Taiping money at the Imperial Capital. Your brother and I only earn this little in a month, which is not even comparable to others."
Zhang Yuelu said coldly, "Since you envy the Li family so much, then you might as well become one of the Li family!"
Zhang Wuyue shrank his neck and did not dare to speak any more. This was a taboo of the Zhang family, so they did not dare to speak nonsense.
Zhang Yuelu said, "Do you know how much a second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest earns per year? Including subsidies, it is about 10,000 taiping coins. Now you only have 10,000 taiping coins, and you can pay for a second-grade Taoist priest in a month."
I have been a Taoist priest in Taiyi for a year, and I have been safe and stable without taking any risks. If you say that you have dull qualifications and cannot take the path of a Taoist priest, then I ask you, why do you, with dull qualifications, earn this peaceful money?"<

This time it was Zhang Wuyue's turn to be speechless.
Zhang Yuelu then said, "What the Li family does is their business. We can't learn from them. As my brother, you can't do this."
Zhang Wuyue couldn't help but said, "Sister, if you want to be the Great Master of Qingtian, I won't stop you. You and your brother-in-law are going to reach the top of the Taoist Gate. I can only be happy and have no reason to hold you back, but you can't just watch.
Let this brother of mine starve and suffer poverty.”
"Starving? Suffering from poverty?" Zhang Yuelu raised his voice, "How can such a big Zhang family still lack a bite to eat from you?"
Zhang Wuyue said, "I am not short of food, but we are a small sect and cannot compare with the disciples of a large sect. We have no income and the rank of Taoist priests is not high. We only have a small amount of silver every month. What is enough for us? Just find a good friend."
To be looked down upon.”
Zhang Yuelu frowned, "What's going on?"
Zhang Wuyue whispered, "Last year, I met a girl. At first, everything was fine. Although I didn't live up to expectations, at least my surname is Zhang. This surname is quite bluffing, and I have a powerful sister."
My brother-in-law and I are just taking advantage of each other, and everyone will look up to me."
"But when we have been in contact for a long time, it is no longer the case. Every time we go out, there are always some expenses. There are also some face-related things that require a lot of money. At this time, I have revealed my secret.
I have no money, I'm just a showman."
"She told me that she didn't want any betrothal gift, but she didn't want to live in an old house with me in Shangqing Town, nor did she want to be crowded with my parents-in-law in the future. She wanted to have her own house in Shangsanfang, Yujing, otherwise..."
Zhang Yuelu interrupted, "Otherwise, I will leave you, right?"
Zhang Wuyue nodded.
Zhang Yuelu said nothing.
Instead, Ke Qingqing said, "Mr. Zhang, I am also a woman, and I know a little bit about these methods. From your description, I guess that girl is not from a wealthy family, right? How can a woman from an aristocratic family talk about these things?
Let’s just say that when Chief Zhang and Chief Qi met, Chief Qi was very poor. The sum of his Taiping money might not even be enough to get a big ticket. Even now, Chief Qi doesn’t have any money on him, and Chief Zhang never mentioned it.
Live these things.”
Zhang Wuyue was startled.
Ke Qingqing was born in the Imperial Palace, where there are many people and sophistication. He went on to say, "When a woman is looking for a man, other than the one she really likes."
Yes, just find someone who is better than you. Even though equality has been shouted for so many years, it is still the same old thing, marry a man, marry a man, wear clothes and eat. The slogan of equality is shouted louder than anyone else, and the interests are not compromised. The so-called don't want
Betrothal gifts are just a trick to make progress by retreating. A small sacrifice today is a big gain in the future."
"As the old saying goes, you run around all day just to be hungry, and when you are full, you think about clothes. You have enough food and clothing, but you also want a charming and beautiful wife. People's desires always increase step by step. That girl originally came to you because of
What? She probably takes a fancy to your family background, and she has high expectations for you. As long as she marries you, she will become a member of the Zhang family and the sister-in-law of Chief Zhang and Chief Qi. It can be said that she has crossed the class and entered the upper echelon of the Taoist sect. "
"But she later discovered that the Zhang family was divided into large and small sects. The children of the small sect did not have so many resources, and their status was not as high as they imagined. So she became dissatisfied and felt that she had given in. She thought that she had been deceived by you.
So she started to change her face and make various demands on you. In her opinion, these are all compensations. So she felt confident and felt that it was natural."
"Also, the competition among women is equally fierce. It is essentially a money competition in the name of vanity. If someone else has a pair of shoes worth three hundred taiping, you should also have them. Someone else's Taoist monk gave you a snow-white fox
Qiu, I also want to give it to my Taoist companion. Mr. Zhang is still young and has no savings, so he cannot meet her needs in this regard, which is also the reason."
"As for the so-called leaving you, it's just a temptation and a threat. Today you gave in and compromised, and if she makes trouble tomorrow, do you still have to compromise? Compromising will only make her look down on you even more. If you do it without a bottom line,
Back and forth again and again. Today is buying a house. Will the house be recorded in her name tomorrow? Will you be asked to ask Chief Qi and Chief Zhang to arrange another position for her the day after tomorrow? As long as you can't do it.
, just leave you?"
"With all due respect, this girl probably doesn't want to leave Mr. Zhang. She just wants to control Mr. Zhang and make him follow her, hold her, coax her, and spoil her. In my opinion, after all, Mr. Zhang
He is Chief Zhang's brother. He is already the best candidate this girl can find. She will not let him go easily. Mr. Zhang listened to my advice. If she brings up the matter of separation again, she might as well agree directly. Maybe it will be her.
I took the initiative to save Mr. Zhang."
Zhang Wuyue was silent for a while after listening, and then smiled and said, "Thank you, Sister Ke, for your guidance."
Zhang Yuelu said, "I have made it very clear. Close that company of yours immediately, then find a serious job, do things down-to-earth, and behave accordingly."
The smile on Zhang Wuyue's face gradually faded away.
Zhang Yuelu is naturally
Sensing the change in the atmosphere, he still asked, "Tianzhong, do you have any objections?"
Zhang Wuyue suddenly said loudly, "Of course I have an opinion. Sister, believe it or not, even if it doesn't have anything to do with me, those old guys will still fight against you. Even if all of our Zhang family goes to the streets to beg for food, they still have to fight."
You have to fight. It’s not me who’s holding you back, sister!”
Zhang Yuelu said calmly, "I believe it."
"Since you believe it, why can't I do my business?" Zhang Wuyue became excited, "Sister, even if there is no such thing as a woman, can I just hang around like this? Will this be the case for the rest of my life? Money is the courage of a hero, I don't
Is it wrong to dare to seek extravagant power and only seek some insignificant heroic courage?"
Zhang Yuelu said in a deep voice, "A gentleman loves money and gets it in the right way. I'm not letting you make money, I just let you do the right thing."
Zhang Wuyue changed his usual submissive demeanor and burst into laughter, almost crying: "Sister, you are now prosperous and have come under the eyes of the Heavenly Master. The Dazhen Mansion will allocate you 100,000 pieces of peace every year."
The money is for you and your brother-in-law to spend, no matter what you don’t have. This money is fair and aboveboard, so of course you can stand on the dry shore and talk about morality without having your back hurt. But I can’t, I don’t have such treatment.”
As soon as I said this, I felt a bit embarrassed.
Zhang Yuelu closed his eyes, "I don't deny this, but when I was your age, I only had Taoist priest Li Yin, and I lived very hard. I said the same thing at that time, and even more so."
Zhang Wuyue stopped laughing, "Sister, if I had a future like yours, I would be able to bear it. It's a pity that I don't have it either."
Zhang Yuelu sighed, and his tone turned cold, "I'll only give you three days to finish. It's up to you to do whatever you want."
Zhang Wuyue said coldly, "Since the Chief Deputy Governor of the Borneo Province has said so, I can only follow it."
Zhang Yuelu opened his eyes and said "Tianzhong!"
Zhang Wuyue smiled miserably, "Zhang Qingtian killed his relatives righteously, punished the dandy in accordance with the law, and became famous in the Lion City. This is the best ending."
"Zhang Yuelu, just pretend that you don't have me as your brother. Sooner or later you will be alone."
After saying that, Zhang Wuyue turned around and left.
Zhang Yuelu didn't speak, just sat on the chair, speechless.
Ke Qingqing wanted to send Zhang Yuelu off, but then stopped and looked towards Zhang Yuelu.
She found that her boss, who had always been adamant and unyielding, was crying silently.
