"Uh..." Liu Zhizhong was montarily stunned before he said, "Maybe it's better not to talk about it, okay?"
Zhang Minmin got a little upset all of a sudden and slapped the coffee table, "Liu Zhizhong, what do you an? You just want to wash your hands off and not take responsibility? And you don't want my elder cousin to tell my dad?"
Liu Zhizhong chuckled, "I just don't want the old man to feel too awkward, you know? Haha..."
Zhang Minmin's anger dissipated, "Oh, that's what you ant. You're such a thoughtful person. But it's okay, my dad definitely won't feel awkward. He's the kind of person who, as long as I'm not embarrassed, the embarrassnt is soone else's, hehe..."
"Really?"
"Of course!"
Liu Zhizhong nodded, recalling the situation at the ti. It indeed seed to be the case, so he said, "It's true, I've seen cold and thick-skinned faces, but never soone like him!"
"What did you say? Who are you talking about?"
"Haha... Just kidding, co on, have so tea..."
"You jerk..."
"..."
Of course, during this playful and teasing fruit tea ti that night, Liu Zhizhong learned that Zhang Minmin's father, Zhang Qitian, was quite influential in Tiandu.
Zhang Qitian is only 45 this year, beca a father at 19, and only has one daughter, Zhang Minmin, whom he loves dearly.
In the field of antiques and Feng Shui in Tiandu, Zhang Qitian is at least in the top three.
Antiques and Feng Shui often go hand in hand, those who know, know.
Zuo Xintong's family's house and its Feng Shui setup have been arranged by Zhang Qitian, and they haven't found a better option yet, so they've been using the rare Arowana as a substitute.
This ti, with the Scythe Fish, which is almost a legendary fish, Zhang Qitian is definitely going to be pleased, or at least the Zuo Family will be satisfied!
At the sa ti, the Feng Shui arrangent for the Zuo Family had a purpose, and Zhang Minmin also rembered and told Liu Zhizhong, she really doesn't keep secrets from her man!
It turns out, Zuo Xintong's brother is very promising in the officialdom of Tiandu. Speaking of which, he and Zhang Qitian were childhood friends and classmates.
Now, the eldest brother of the Zuo Family, Zuo Xingguang, at 45, is already in a ministerial position, quite renowned and promising in all directions. What his future holds, any keen observer knows, he can at least move up a couple of steps!
For such a person, arranging a Feng Shui setup for good fortune makes perfect sense.
Liu Zhizhong listened to all this and absorbed it quietly.
It seems that hugging Zuo Xintong's powerful leg is a must. If the eldest brother of the Zuo Family rises and has smooth sailing, haha, with a little push from Zuo Xintong, breaking into the top in Tiandu wouldn't be a dream!
As a result, when it got late into the night, Liu Zhizhong kissed goodbye to Zhang Minmin. It wasn't a matter of being insincere anymore; it was just the reality...
In the officialdom, reaching this point isn't easy, managing social connections is really crucial.
Among the Powerful People, the world is divided into three: the Southern Faction, the Northern Faction, and the Tiandu Faction, but the Tiandu Faction is the one that produces the most prominent figures. So, Liu Zhizhong wants to gather the montum from the Southern Faction and leverage the Zuo Family's power in Tiandu to advance further and further, and this strategic thinking is spot on.
Happily returning to Shuangxin Courtyard, washed up and laid down, with a firm dream in his heart, Liu Zhizhong fell asleep quickly.
Anyway, the materials for the cabin are arriving tomorrow; the cabin on Tianping Peak must be arranged thoroughly for Zuo Xintong and Zhang Minmin, hehe...
