I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 602 Treating men and women differently

Are Liu Jian’s words bluffing?
To be honest, it's quite bluffing.

But can Liu Jian's words scare Mi Zhen in one fell swoop?

Of course not. After all, Mi Zhen comes from a good background and has a lot of experience. Although she is far inferior to Liu Jian, she will not be intimidated by Liu Jian right away.

Mi Zhen looked at Liu Jian with a puzzled expression, and then listened to her speak slowly.

"Sir, are you trying to scare this little girl with your words?"

Liu Jian turned his head and looked at Zhang Fei behind him.

Zhang Fei said with a smile but not a smile: "You little girl, you really don't understand the truth. My brother saw that your Mi family gave alms to the victims and showed great kindness to the people of Xiapi State, so I came here to remind you that you don't respect this girl. How can you do that?" On the contrary, I have become suspicious of my brother's intentions. My brother is a noble man, a member of the Han family, and has prestige among the scholars. How can I frighten you?"

"Besides, what good will it do to my brother to bully a little girl like you?"

Zhang Fei was originally a fierce general in the world, with a murderous spirit all over his body.

When he spoke just now, he didn't deliberately shout at Mi Zhen, but Zhang Fei's natural voice was like a huge thunder, and when he spoke, he glared like a god descending to earth.

Mi Zhen has been treated like a star since she was a child. As the most beautiful woman in Xuzhou, many celebrities and talents from wealthy families in Xuzhou admire her extremely.

Not to mention Zhang Fei who spoke to her with frowning eyes, many celebrities met Mi Zhen and spoke softly, for fear of making Mi Zhen unhappy.

Zhang Fei shouted out in such a voice, Mi Zhen's heart jumped in fright, and her pretty face turned red from suppressing it.

Her breathing was quickened, and she looked at Zhang Fei in shock, seeming quite afraid.

Why does this person have such a loud voice?

Mi Zhen's condition naturally fell into Liu Jian's eyes.

Compared with Zhang Fei, Liu Jian's emotional intelligence in this regard is relatively high.

He smiled and cupped his hands at Mi Zhen and said: "Girl, don't panic. This good brother of mine speaks upright and has a strong temperament, but he is honest and forthright. He speaks with talent and has no malice and no intention." The intention of blaming the young lady is just to state the truth."

"This is the first time the girl and I have met. It's normal for the girl not to trust me."

"However, what I said is indeed for the good of the girl and the Mi family."

"Girls, please note that the Xiapi Kingdom is now full of refugees, but these refugees can turn into bandits at any time. The Xiapi Kingdom is not directly governed by Liu Xuande. The forces within the territory are complex, and the surrounding forces are extremely complex. Those who are short of food, as a member of the Mi family in the East China Sea, the girl originally came from a wealthy family, but now she brings so much food to help the victims, how can she not make the strong men covet her?"

"Uncle Yu had jade, and Duke Yu asked for it. He didn't offer it. Then he regretted it and said: "There is a proverb in Zhou Dynasty: 'Every man is not guilty, but he is guilty of having a jade. 'How can I use this? It will cause harm to Jia? "So he offered it. He also asked for his sword. My uncle said, "This is Wu Ti.Insatiable, will reach me. "Then he attacked Duke Yu. So Duke Yu went out and ran to Gongchi."

"Although I don't have any beautiful jade in my body today, how can I know that I am not the Duke Yu of Xiapi Kingdom?"

Compared with Zhang Fei, who has a loud voice, Liu Jian is now good at coaxing Mi Zhen.

His attitude when speaking was amiable, and his whole body already showed a mature uncle-like appearance.

Liu Jian is already thirty years old. He already has children and several wives and concubines in this world.

Coupled with his previous life experience, Liu Jian's current nobility, maturity and stability are incomparable to others.

Although Mi Zhen has met many men from wealthy families, those with Liu Jian's temperament are rare.

Then I heard Mi Zhen say to Liu Jian: "What the teacher said is true. It is Mi Zhen's child's nature. She didn't realize the teacher's good intentions, and there was doubt in her words. It really shouldn't be done. Mi Zhen is here to give the teacher Apologize."

Liu Jian smiled and shook his head and said: "It doesn't have to be like this. Your brother and I are old friends. I'm here not for profit, but for personal friendship. It's normal for you to have doubts about me. There's no need to Concerned."

"In this way, you don't have to believe what I say for the time being, but don't disbelieve it either. Let me tell you one thing. You can check it out on your own later and you will know whether I have good intentions or bad intentions."

Liu Jian knew that some things should not be rushed, especially for a young girl like Mi Zhen who is smart and knowledgeable but is still just starting out. Some things require patience and persuasion.

The way to treat women is different from the way to treat men. Women are more delicate, more challenging, and more vigilant than men. Liu Jian is very clear about this.

Therefore, you must be patient when dealing with women, and use a more tactful way.

Compared to most men in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Jian actually understood women better, because in this era, not many men would pay more attention to women. How could they have the mood to figure out what women are thinking? Woolen cloth?

They haven't even figured out what the man is thinking.

Liu Jian was so patient, his tone was very calm, and his expression was very kind, which made Mi Zhen feel more favorable and trustful towards him.

However, it is still too early for Mi Zhen to believe the alarmism in Liu Jianshi's words.

"Mi Zhen is really moved by how sincere the gentleman is. So please speak frankly, sir."

Liu Jian slowly stretched out three fingers and said: "I can guarantee you, girl, within three days, Xiapi's Prime Minister Zuo Rong and the local tycoon Que Xuan will send someone to ask for food and grass from the girl. And the amount of requests will definitely be staggering.”

Mi Zhen didn't seem to believe it when she heard this. "Why do you say this, sir? Although Prime Minister Ruo Guo and Que Xuan are well-known people in Xiapi, they have no close friendship with our Mi family. It can even be said that they don't know each other. Why do they want to ask for food and grass from our Mi family? ?”

Liu Jian laughed and said: "Let me tell you a little bit about it. I will definitely come back in three days. Then it will be time to verify whether what I said is correct or not. If Miss is willing to believe me, we will discuss it carefully." It’s never too late.”

When he said this, Liu Jian stood up and bowed towards Mi Zhen: "Liu has the right to say goodbye today."

Mi Zhen also stood up: "Zhen'er didn't mean to disbelieve Sir. Why did Sir only say half of what he said and not the full part? Why don't you tell me in detail? Mi Zhen is willing to believe Sir."

But Liu Jian pretended to be mysterious and said: "The time has not come yet, so it is unintentional to say more. Girl, see you in three days."

After that, Liu Jian forcibly took Zhang Fei away.

Mi Zhen looked at Liu Jian's leaving figure and muttered to herself: "This is the first time I've met such a person. I'm so confused..."

……

……

Zhang Fei followed Liu Jian out of Mi Zhen's residence and said, "Brother, you are just a little girl. Why bother talking to him so much nonsense? Just tell him the seriousness of the matter directly without fear of scaring her."

Liu Jian shook his head and said, "The way we treat women is different from how we treat men."

"This woman has seen some of the world, but not all of it. Moreover, she is still young and her mind is far from mature. If we press too hard, it will be the opposite."

"If this woman leaks our situation and puts Zuo Rong and Que Xuan on guard, won't our plan be in vain?"

"I am hanging her up now, but it makes her curious. Follow my pace. Don't worry, we will come back in three days, and it will definitely be effective."

Zhang Fei said: "Brother is so sure that Zuo Rong will definitely come to ask for food from him within these three days. Although I can also predict that Zuo Rong will definitely come to ask for food from the Mi family, I'm afraid he won't come in just these three days."

Liu Jian laughed loudly and said: "I don't know about other people, but people like Zuo Rong and Que Xuan, I'm sure they are greedy people. Their ideas are too simple! They only have food and wealth in their eyes." If the goods are delayed for one more day, more of the Mi family's food will be scattered, which will be a loss for Zuo Rong, they are just a group of snobs, how can they have a broad vision? "

Zhang Fei raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Well, what brother said is true. It seems that I still have to learn a lot from brother."

……

In fact, just as Liu Jian expected, the day after Liu Jian left, Zuo Rong sent an envoy to see Mi Zhen.

When the envoy saw Mi Zhen, he opened his mouth and asked Mi Zhen to borrow food without saying a word.

Moreover, the amount of grain he borrowed was so large that it was almost the total of all the grain and grass donated by Mi Zhen this time.

When Mi Zhen heard this, she was almost at a loss. He was not panicked because of the huge amount of food borrowed by Zuo Rong, but because what happened today had already been guessed by Mr. Liu Ji who came yesterday. Yes, and it was exactly as he guessed.

Precisely because of this, what Mr. Liu Ji said yesterday about saving her life re-entered Mi Zhen's mind at this moment?

Could it be that everything he said was true?
While Mi Zhen was dealing with Zhe Rong's messenger hypocritically, she was thinking uneasily about what happened yesterday.

The amount of food and grass that the messenger asked for was almost all the Mi family had brought to the disaster relief this time, so Mi Zhen certainly couldn't give it to him.

However, in order to take care of the face of Zuo Rong, the Prime Minister of Xiapi State, Mi Zhen expressed her willingness to lend two thousand stones of grain and grass to Zuo Rong and send him to Xiapi County on a selected day.

After Zuo Rong's envoy left, Mi Zhen tossed and turned, thinking about what Liu Ji said. Liu Ji's calculation was indeed very accurate, which made Mi Zhen a little scared.

She didn't sleep well the next day.

On the third day, she looked forward to the stars and the moon, and really looked forward to Liu Jian and Zhang Fei again.

Liu Jian met Mi Zhen and found that Mi Zhen's condition today was completely different from the day before. Not to mention she was depressed, and her originally beautiful face had now become very haggard, and even had two big black circles under her eyes.

"Girl, did you not sleep last night?"

Mi Zhen pursed her lips and said somewhat complainingly: "Sir, you are so clever, can't you figure out even this little thing? I think you understand why Zhen'er didn't sleep well."

Liu Jian laughed loudly when he heard this: "Girl, you really think highly of Liu. Liu is just a Confucian scholar, how dare you pretend to be a clever calculator?"

"But there is one thing I can figure out today."

Mi Zhen said: "What's the matter?"

"As I expected, the food and grass that Zuo Rong sent to ask the girl yesterday should be the entire amount that the girl came to help the victims this time, right?"

"Snapped."

After hearing Liu Jian's words, Mi Zhen was shocked and dropped the jue she was holding on the table.
