Chapter 270: Self-Knowledge
(Thank you to Deacon "Satan of Heaven" for sending three 6000-word renewal tickets, thank you!!) Congratulations to "Satan of Heaven" on his elevation as a deacon!! In addition, there are many more bonus chapters, so let's help get them. )
Mr. Long's words were as calm as water, but anyone could hear the sarcasm and hostility in his tone.
The original happy atmosphere was also completely ruined by his words.
There was silence at the dinner table.
Fang Tong's face became a little ugly, he could hear that Mr. Long's words were deliberately said to Wang Sancai, and he immediately wanted to refute it.
However, Wang Sancai stopped him in time, and replied with a smile: "People should have self-knowledge, know what they should do and what they should not do, if people don't have self-knowledge, it is equivalent to stepping into the coffin!" ”
It seems that Wang Sancai only slightly modified a few words, and the rest is exactly the same as what Mr. Long said, but in fact, this is already another meaning.
Sure enough, Mr. Long heard it clearly, raised his head and glanced at Wang Sancai carelessly, and said calmly: "Do you think I'm a fool?" If I had done it, I would have threatened you to your face? ”
Indeed, Wang Sancai thought about it, if Mr. Long was really the mastermind behind this series of things in the banker, how could he threaten himself in person?
However, it cannot be ruled out that he deliberately said this to dispel his doubts.
Mr. Long's threat did not reduce Wang Sancai's suspicion of him, but Wang Sancai only smiled on the surface and did not continue to say anything.
Mr. Long thought that Wang Sancai didn't understand what he meant, and looked up and looked outside. Seeing that Zhuang Zhuang hadn't come back yet, his face was solemn, and his tone was a little tougher: "Xiaoyun is the eldest lady of the Zhuang family, and her status is extremely noble, and she will marry someone of the same status in the future, or the eldest son of another big family, or the royal family, I heard that His Majesty the King has a son, and the patriarch has a daughter, if the two of them marry." Then the status of our Zhuang family can be one level higher!! ”
After hearing this. Wang Sancai suddenly realized that this Mr. Long didn't want to let him beat Zhuang Biyun's idea!
In fact, Wang Sancai didn't think about the idea of fighting Zhuang Biyun, he even just wanted to watch Zhuang Biyun from afar. Don't bother her. and did not get close to her. Someday, the girl will understand her own responsibilities and forget about feelings that shouldn't exist in the first place.
It's even been planned. After the dealer's affair was over, he left here immediately and never came back!
From the beginning, Wang Sancai never thought about what would happen to Zhuang Biyun.
However, if Zhuang Zheng said this to him, Wang Sancai would definitely be honest with him, after all, Zhuang Biyun was Zhuang Yan's daughter.
But to put it mildly, what kind of thing are you, Mr. Long? You have no blood relationship with Zhuang Biyun, and you are just a vassal under Zhuang Yan's hands, to put it mildly, if you hadn't saved Zhuang Yan's life back then, I'm afraid that the body of your dead eunuch would have already rotted!
What qualifications do you have to "remind" me?!
From another point of view, Mr. Long is indeed not a fool, but he is not much better than a fool, and it can even be said to be extremely stupid!
After all, Wang Sancai is a guest of the banker, and he is also a benefactor, at most, he only has a close relationship with Zhuang Biyun, Mr. Long must have known everything that happened in the rainforest in the solemn place, if he is a smart person, he will naturally understand that Wang Sancai will retreat, so why bother to say these useless, or even likely to have the opposite effect?
Wang Sancai couldn't help but wonder if Zhuang Biyun had been with this Mr. Long for too long, so he would be a little stupid.
He didn't know why Zhuang Zhuang would leave such a stupid vassal by his side, if it was just to repay the favor, it would be enough to repay it for so many years, right? Even if it is not good, giving Mr. Long a position that is not painful and has enough oil and water is worthy of him, right? If you want to stay by your side, you won't be afraid that other vassals will be dissatisfied?
At least, Wang Sancai can already see that Mr. Hai has a lot of opinions about this Mr. Long.
Wang Sancai couldn't guess the solemn thoughts, but with such a stupid vassal, Wang Sancai was not afraid of offending him, so he immediately sneered: "Once upon a time, in a declining family, there was an old butler who liked to meddle in affairs, and he thought that his young master should maintain the stability of the family like his old master did during his lifetime, instead of spending money everywhere to recruit troops.
But his young master thought that his old master was too weak in his life, and blindly tolerated and appeased the hostile family, so he did not listen to the old butler's words, and one day annihilated his hostile family in one fell swoop with extremely cruel means, so that more hostile families were frightened at the same time, but also fell under his feet in fear, and since then, the family has once again gone to glory.
However, the old housekeeper felt that the young master did not listen to the old master's teachings, and accused his young master of 'not being filial', and the young master allowed the old housekeeper to continue to stay at his post for the sake of his old master's face, but later, do you know what happened to this old housekeeper? ”
Mr. Long had already heard what Wang Sancai meant, his face was angry, and he forcibly said, "What's the end?" ”
"The old butler died, and was skinned by the young master, and hung on the city gate, and hung for half a year, until at last the corpse attracted too many flies, so he had to put it down." Wang Sancai said very calmly: "Because the old housekeeper has no self-knowledge, he doesn't know what he should be in charge of, what he shouldn't be in charge of, and he wants his young master to obey his arrangement by relying on the seniority of his elders, and he doesn't know who is the head of the family and the decision-maker, so he died a miserable death." ”
Speaking of this, Wang Sancai took a deep breath and said leisurely: "Is Mr. Long talking about 'self-knowledge'?" I think I know the meaning of these four words better than some people. ”
Although Mr. Long was stupid, he also understood that Wang Sancai said that he should not be nosy, his face suddenly changed, and a strong anger suddenly appeared in his beautiful peach blossom eyes: "You ......"
He was so angry that he didn't even know how to accuse Wang Sancai.
Fang Tong's face on the side was much calmer, he glanced at Mr. Long unabashedly, and lowered his head to eat a steak.
On the other side, Mr. Hai took a bite of food with an expressionless face, and while lowering his head and stirring the hot soup with a spoon, he said meaningfully: "Many people just don't know how many catties and taels they have, and they don't understand their situation at all, and they don't even understand that without the support of the big people behind him, he himself is nothing, but he always likes to lecture others!" Oh god forbid, please punish this damn bastard quickly! ”
There was no politeness between his words, and he did not hide his hostility towards Mr. Long at all, and while the corners of Wang Sancai's mouth curled, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, how could Zhuang Yan leave two people with such deep contradictions by his side?
Mr. Long couldn't control the anger in his heart, he slapped the table and stood up suddenly, Wang San stared at him and prepared to take out the Spirit Slayer Thorn.
However, I don't know why, Mr. Long, who was still angry a moment ago, suddenly smiled with a spring breeze on his face, and then slowly sat down, and actually smiled: "Some people are too jealous, and they can't see others being any better, let alone being more comfortable than him, oh, the gods are above, I know that you will not let this kind of person have a good end." ”
After saying that, he actually laughed out loud like this: "Hahaha......"
So, Mr. Hai also laughed, Wang Sancai and Fang Tong also laughed together, and the originally-for-tat dinner was suddenly replaced by this "complicated" laughter.
Zhuang Yan heard the laughter coming from the dining room, stepped into the dining room, and couldn't help laughing: "What are you discussing?" Are you all smiling so happy? ”
Mr. Hai was the first to stand up and restrain his laughter, but his face was still smiling, he glanced at Mr. Long casually, and replied, "Patriarch, Lord Long told a very funny joke just now. ”
Mr. Long also stood up and bowed, "Mr. Hai also told a joke. ”
While Wang Sancai and Fang Tong got up together and nodded solemnly, they also suddenly felt in their hearts, it seemed that Zhuang Zhuang did not know that the contradiction between Mr. Long and Mr. Hai was very deep.
However, the truth was not as Wang Sancai thought, solemnly closed the door of the hall in person, motioned for everyone to sit down, and said with a straight face in the first sentence: "The two eldest brothers are my most trusted people, I don't want to see the two of you quarrel, let alone see our own people killing each other, you two don't have to hide it from me, if it's really a joke, it is impossible for the two of you to laugh out loud at the same time." ”
For a moment, both Mr. Hai and Mr. Long had no smiles on their faces.
Wang Sancai couldn't help but wonder, since he solemnly knew the depth of the contradiction between the two, why did he still keep the two by his side?
However, as soon as this question came to mind, Wang Sancai suddenly realized!!
Solemn is afraid that he himself will be overthrown by his vassals! If the vassals around you have an excellent relationship and are united, that is what you don't want to see!
Through Boss Jiang's incident, it can be seen that Mr. Hai's ability is very strong, and he can adapt to changes, but as a "monarch", Zhuang Zheng doesn't want to see a "capable minister" like Mr. Hai, but he must give full play to his ability, so Zhuang Zhuang "supported" Mr. Long, a "stupid" vassal, as a means to restrict Mr. Hai, and he is even likely to protect Mr. Long, but the reason why he chose a "stupid" like Mr. Long is to tell Mr. Hai that Mr. Long can't threaten him, so that he can rest assured that he can do things for himself!
Thinking about this matter clearly, Wang San had to sigh that solemnity is really a good means!!
It's just that Zhuang Zhuang didn't know what Wang Sancai was thinking, he saw that Mr. Long and Mr. Hai had already quieted down, so he stared at the two of them and muttered for a moment, and then, taking a slight breath, he finally spoke: "Okay, Xiaoyun has also been sent back, there are no outsiders here, let's start talking about business now, Brother Hai, starting with you, I know that you haven't finished reporting before."
