Chapter 424: The woman's heart, the needle under the sea
Seeing Zhen's shy and charming expression, Li Li was excited and lost for a moment.
Then he shook his head slightly and calmed himself down, and said with a smile: "Madam, I am not asking for anything, but telling my wife about the next itinerary. In addition, I have another suggestion, please consider it carefully."
Zhen looked up at Li Lijun's smiling face, feeling a little disappointed. She thought he was going to say something to him, and she was even thinking about how to answer him, but she didn't expect that he didn't have such an idea at all.
Then Zhen's red lips opened slightly but it was difficult to speak. After hesitating for a moment, he said softly: "Young Master may say anything bluntly. I should consider it carefully."
Li Li nodded slightly and said, "I know that the Zhen family has a strong financial resources. After many generations, it has been passed down to hundreds of years. The Zhen family has affair in gold, silver jewelry, silk and cloth, grain and horses. They have shops in various prefectures and counties in the Central Plains, secretly operate several extremely hidden horse farms, and even stockpiled a large amount of salt, iron, bows, crossbows and weapons. Therefore, the Wuji Zhen family is the largest family in Zhongshan Kingdom, and has become one of the famous clans in Jizhou with its huge financial resources. In the entire Ji and Youzhou, there are only a handful of Yinfu families.
However, now the world is chaotic and the princes are separating. All parties are trying to raise money, grain, recruit soldiers, capture cities, expand their territory, and expand their territory. Although the Zhen family is a family of officials that has been passed down for a hundred years, the incense is not strong, and the men are weak, so that the wife and women have to stand up to support the huge family business and run around. They suffer from the pain of bumpy and hard work."
Speaking of this, Li Li paused a little and looked at Zhen with pity, which made Zhen's pretty face look shy, and the spectacular "shuxing" fluttered violently, and even his breathing became rapid.
Then Li Li smiled heartily and continued, "There is a saying: wealth is touching. When you are in troubled times, it is not a blessing for the Zhen family to have such a wealth of wealth. It is too eye-catching. It is easy to cause evil people to plot against, be cared about by the princes of various towns, and they all covet the huge wealth of the Zhen family.
Therefore, I have a suggestion, please consider it carefully.
As the saying goes, "The cunning rabbit has three holes. All eggs cannot be placed in one basket, so as not to be beaten, and the accumulation of wealth for hundreds of years will be destroyed. Therefore, the Wuji Zhen family's large business should start preparing early, make more preparations, and be prepared for any accidents; transfer part of the family business to other relatively safe and peaceful prefectures and counties, and send trusted clan members to take care of it. In this way, even if the Zhen family is peeped at and be mistted, it will not be occupied by all the money and food accumulated for hundreds of years, and their lives will be all over the princes. This is too dangerous. If the bet is lost, the entire Zhen family will be trapped in a desperate situation, and it will be difficult to make a comeback. It will even implicate the entire clan and will never be doomed!"
"Ah!" Zhen was shocked when he heard this. He stared at Li Li in disbelief and asked in disbelief: "Why do you know so much about my Zhen family?"
Hearing Zhen's question, Li Li smiled indifferently, looked at her with a smile on his face, smiling without saying a word.
Zhen's pretty face turned red and asked calmly: "In the opinion of the young master, which prince will be more secure in my Zhen family to rely on in the future? In other words, the young master thinks which prince can eventually achieve hegemony?"
"Xiliang Li Li, what do you think about Madam?" Li Li continued without thinking.
"General Li Li and Li Wenchang of Guard?" Zhen looked at Li Li with a look of surprise, with a slightly hesitant expression. He frowned and murmured in thinking: "Li Li, I have heard of him. He knew that he had hundreds of thousands of Xiliang Army under his command, and was the most powerful prince among the princes today. However, Li Li was born in a good family and was said to be extremely harsh on the clan gentry, strictly restricting the number of entourages and maids in the clan mansion, regularly checking the farmland and houses under the clan name, and strictly prohibiting the clan from privately annexing the land of farmers. Moreover, Li Li did not allow the aristocratic families to have completely private slaves and maids, and also had to clarify the monthly salary of the slaves. Therefore, in the eyes of the officials and clans in the Central Plains, Li Wenchang seemed incompatible with the aristocratic families and great families, and was in opposition to each other. Therefore, although he was strong in his army, he could not achieve great things.
Uh, Li Wenchang, why does this name sound so familiar? Wenchang, isn’t this the font size of a young master?”
After repeatedly mentioning Li Wenchang's name, Zhen suddenly realized something was wrong and couldn't help but look up at Li Li, her eyes full of doubt, and then she looked horrified, as if she had discovered an incredible secret.
Li Li smiled happily and said, "Mrs. Her lady is kind and kind, and she will be right at the right time. Here is Li Li, Liangzhou, whose courtesy name is Wenchang. She has offended her before, so I hope her wife will forgive her!"
"Ah! This,,,,,,,," Zhen screamed in shock, and then she murmured to herself: "Wenchang, Li Wenchang, I should have thought of it long ago."
"Hahaha!" Li Li smiled and nodded, saying indifferently: "It's not too late to know now, so you don't have to care too much about it. In fact, whether it's Zheng Feng or Li Li, it's just a personal name and it's not worth making a fuss. This time I came to Jizhou for a trip. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I often use a pseudonym to show people. Please forgive me for any abruptness."
Zhen was silent for a while, and seemed to be lowering her head, but in fact, she kept observing the change of Li Li's expression from the corner of her eyes.
After stabilizing her mind, her eyes looked at Li Li softer and said softly: "Young Master, oh, what the general said just now, I must consider it carefully. In fact, my Zhen family also has shops in the Sanfu area of Chang'an. In the past two years, Xiliang has been stable and peaceful, and it is the imperial capital. The Zhen family shops are gradually increasing their investment. Now that the general has spoken, I should do it myself. After I get home, I will arrange a batch of food to Chang'an immediately and ask the general to send someone to accept it."
"Hahaha!" Li Li smiled and shook his head, saying, "Mrs. I appreciate the beauty. But I don't think it's necessary to fund food, otherwise I, Li Li, will be a villain!
There is no airtight wall in the world. This time, the incident between my wife and my daughter will be known to Yuan Shao in the future. By then, the wife and the Zhen family will be criticized by Yuan Benchu and their situation is worrying. Unless the wife is willing to give money and grain to fully fund Yuan Shao, it will be difficult to make a good deal. Therefore, in my opinion, the Zhen family's transfer of property should not be delayed, and it will change later."
Listening to Li Li's words in his ear, Zhen nodded slightly, but did not immediately express his opinion, as if he was still weighing the pros and cons, and hesitating.
Zhen's reaction was completely within Li Li's expectations. He continued: "In addition, I still have something to ask for, so I would like to ask my wife to consider it together. I guess the wife also saw that along the way, the four subordinates under my command admired the four ladies of the Zhen family very much, and they fell in love with her at first sight. For this reason, they asked me to protect the media and asked her to fulfill her wishes."
"This,,,,,,," Zhen was speechless in shock. His pretty face was extremely complicated, his eyes were a little erratic, and hesitant.
Li Li smiled and said, "This matter is not urgent. It is best to have a relationship between marriage. The wife can know it in her heart and she can explore Ling Yuan's ideas in private. After I finish the work, it is not too late to discuss it. In addition, I am in Jizhou, my identity is quite sensitive, so I ask my wife to keep it a secret. I was very uneasy when I was bothered by my wife at night. I asked her to take care of her health and rest earlier. Wenchang said goodbye first."
After saying that, Li Li waved his hand and signaled that Zhen did not have to get up and see him off, so he turned around and left.
Seeing Li Li's back disappearing in front of the door, Zhen stood at the door and looked around in a daze, motionless, feeling lost, and stood for a long time.
As a cold wind blew over with moisture, Zhen couldn't help but have a cold war. Then he covered the wooden door of the fence and walked slowly to the edge of the bed and sat down.
She whispered to herself: "I have long seen that you are from an extraordinary background. It turns out that you are the famous Li Li and Li Wenchang of Xiliang when you were young. No wonder his subordinates are all powerful and powerful soldiers, and their followers are even more powerful generals. When they mention the princes in the world, they call them their names and look down on the heroes of the world. It turns out that these people are elite soldiers and generals in the Xiliang army. However, Yuan Shao, Jizhou, was born into the Yuan family of four generations and three dukes, and his disciples were spread all over the world. Now he has occupied the entire Jizhou, with a solid foundation, with nearly 200,000 troops, and his power has been achieved. Can you really defeat Yuan Shao?"
Although Zhen is a wife family, she is the head of the Zhen family and is in charge of a huge consortium. Faced with major decisions related to the survival of the family, she had to weigh the pros and cons, consider it carefully, and never make a promise easily.
However, a woman is a woman after all. Once she has a connection and lets a man break into her heart, no matter how smart she is, she will still be troubled by emotions and will instinctively bias when considering problems.
Zhen was like this at this moment. She was originally optimistic about Yuan Shao because Yuan Shao was born into a famous family and was once the leader of the princes and was well-known. Now that he occupied Jizhou, his career has become a prototype. However, when she met the handsome and romantic Li Li this time, the emotional gate that had been closed for many years opened again, and she had an inexplicable affection for Li Li, and then she was out of control. As long as Li Li was by her side, she almost didn't have to think about anything, and everything was arranged by Li Li. This feeling of having a man shelter from the wind and rain and being protected made her become a little woman again, rather than the strong woman before.
Therefore, at this moment, Zhen's heart was completely occupied by Li Li's upright posture, and she was deeply trapped in it and could not extricate herself. Compared with the man she had previously optimistic about, Yuan Shao was in heaven and earth, and was completely incomparable.
Because of this, if Li Li continued to ask questions just now, Zhen would be likely to give an answer immediately, and a positive answer. But in order to avoid suspicion, Li Li was worried that Zhen would think that he would take advantage of others' danger and coerce, so he did not ask Zhen to answer immediately. However, his actions made Zhen even more moved and felt very sweet. Instead, he felt that Li Li was open and considerate, and thought about her everywhere.
A woman's heart, a needle under the sea, is unpredictable. This sentence is vividly reflected in Zhen and is almost perfectly interpreted.
