Chapter 50 Invitation "Yes! Yes! Free meal!" said the senior executive, looking at Zheng Fa expectantly, his tone more polite than the last time he came over: "I don't know, is it convenient?" "Uncle, please come in." Zheng Fa invited the Gao family and their son into the courtyard, and his younger sister Zheng Shan happily brought two small stools over. "This furniture was given by you, Uncle Gao." Looking at the two small stools, Zheng Fa smiled and said, "I should have thanked you a long time ago." "This little thing is nothing!" Hearing Zheng Fa say this, Gao Jia hurriedly waved his hands, but the reserved look he had when he first came in faded a lot. "Uncle, you are..." "My dear nephew, I heard from Gao Yuan that you taught him a secret technique of the immortal family?" Director Gao put down his chopsticks and said carefully. "It's not the secret method of the immortals." "Then it's spread!" Gao Jia slapped his thigh and said his purpose; "I came here this time just to bring him here to thank you." "Mr. Gao, you sent a lot of food over last time, and we haven't finished eating them yet." Before Zheng Fa could say anything, his mother spoke.
"Madam, that's nothing. It's not worth mentioning compared to the secret method of the immortals!" said the senior family member disapprovingly. Seeing that Zheng's mother was still about to refuse, he said, "I heard that Madam has always wanted to find a clothing store." Zheng Fa looked up at him. "My dear nephew, please don't misunderstand. You are so focused on studying and practicing martial arts that you don't know that there are many people in the Zhao Mansion who are keeping an eye on you." The Gao family hurriedly explained. Zheng Fa was not surprised. He had no foundation in the Zhao Mansion, but now he was a well-known figure, so naturally he attracted attention. However, Zheng Fa was more concerned about the matter of the ready-made clothing shop mentioned by the senior executive. He looked at Zheng's mother, and sure enough, her expression was very hesitant. Zheng's mother had always wanted to do some work to earn money. She looked at Zheng Fa, and Zheng Fa nodded slightly. "If you can find a shop, I'll trouble the senior family." The senior executive was overjoyed: "It just so happens that my wife's brother owns a shop. Madam will go there in a couple of days." After saying that, he took out a piece of paper and placed it on the table. "Wait..." Zheng Fa frowned: "What does my mother mean by going there?" "Take over the shop!" Mother Zheng quickly said, "I just want to find a shop to do some work." "Madam, this shop is not valuable. Hi...we are all not outsiders. This is my shop, and it is under the name of my brother-in-law." The senior executive said frankly. "Madam, if you have someone you trust, you can transfer this shop to him. If not, if you believe me, this shop will still be in the name of my brother-in-law, and I will have someone send you the monthly income." This is indeed the norm in the Zhao family. Although signing a contract of sale prohibits one from owning private property, this kind of operation is very common for those who have reached the position of a senior family member. I'm afraid the lady knows it too. Otherwise, why would so many people be vying for the position of the Seventh Young Master's servant?
Zheng Fa was even very sure that as long as he stayed in the Zhao Mansion, the Gao family would definitely send this money. Gao Yuan suddenly spoke up: "Zheng Fa, just keep it. My father has more than one shop." Zheng Fa: ...Is it okay for you to cheat your father in front of him? Sure enough, Director Gao's face darkened. He glared at his silly son, then smiled bitterly at Zheng Fa and said, "My dear nephew... I know my family got a great deal, but I still feel that no matter how much I give, it's not enough. If you don't even take over this shop, I really won't be able to sleep..." Zheng Fa looked at the family boss who said he would not leave unless he agreed, then looked at Gao Yuan who was standing beside him and nodded. After the two left, Zheng's mother looked at Zheng Fa blankly: "There's a new shop in our family?" …… Director Gao breathed a sigh of relief as he walked out of Zheng Fa's house. Gao Yuan behind him asked doubtfully, "Dad, is this enough?" "What do you mean by enough? The Seventh Young Master said that there is a powerful person behind Zheng Fa. This is the secret method of the immortals. Can a shop do that? We are here to express our position." The Gao family glared at him and said, "Remember this from now on. If Zheng Fa tells you to go east, you can't go west!" "We are servants of the Zhao family. Should we obey Zheng Fa?" "...Anyway, as long as it doesn't ask you to betray the Zhao family, you should listen to Zheng Fa!" "Then, what if there is a conflict between the Seventh Young Master and Zheng Fa?" "I think the Seventh Young Master is also very afraid of the people behind Zheng Fa. I think Zheng Fa's thigh is thicker than the Seventh Young Master's." Gao Jia gritted his teeth and said, "Stand by Zheng Fa!" "Dad, are we betraying our master by doing this?" Gao Yuan said in a troubled tone. "Don't talk about me. Dad is the steward of the second house. What does the young master of the first house have to do with me?" The senior family member seemed to have a very opinionated attitude. "Then I am the young master's servant..." "Yes, you betrayed the Lord, but Dad didn't." …… "Etc., etc……" In the study, the seventh young master wailed, "I just blinked, how did it come to this?" He looked at Zheng Fa, who was deducing in front of him with a pen, his eyes full of clear doubt. "...It's very obvious!" Zheng Fa also looked puzzled. "Obviously? Why can't I see it?" The Seventh Young Master said unconvincedly: "This secret method is too difficult!" Gao Yuan on the side also had a bitter face. Neither of them learned well. The Seventh Young Master is almost ignorant except for talismans, and he just can't understand no matter how hard he tries. Gao Yuan was relatively good. He had learned accounting from an accountant and could probably understand half of it, but it was very painful to learn. None of them are the good brains that Zheng Fa needs.
The teaching process even made him want to say sorry to the old white man - it turns out that teaching a fool can be so painful. In fact, out of caution, Zheng's method in this "First Volume of Junior High School Mathematics" has also been edited, and most of it is application rather than more essential theoretical proofs. But for the two people who have not received modern education, it is still a little difficult to understand. "Zheng Fa, do you have any simpler secrets?" The Seventh Young Master seemed to feel that he could not learn it, and pleaded with Zheng Fa. "Yes, there is." Zheng Fa took out a book called "Elementary School Mathematics". "I knew you had a trick up your sleeve!" The Seventh Young Master took it with joy. "I didn't hide it. I learned this for my sister." The Seventh Young Master's hands froze, and he asked, "How many sisters do you have?" "One, you have seen, he is six years old." The Seventh Young Master and Gao Yuan looked at each other and saw similar conflicted expressions on each other's faces: They had never heard of any secret book of immortal arts that required one to be shameless to practice! …… The next day, the Seventh Young Master seemed to have skipped school and did not come at all. Butler Wu, who had not been seen for a long time, was standing in the study, as if waiting for them. Seeing the two of them enter the room, his eyes fell on Zheng Fa. "Zheng Fa, Madam would like to have a chat with you." "Please?" Gao Yuan was a little confused about the word please. Zheng Fa seemed to have been waiting for this day for a long time. He nodded to Steward Wu and said calmly, "Please lead the way, Steward Wu." This book, "Junior High School Mathematics", is for the Seventh Young Master and is also written for his wife. Since he mastered the Spirit Crane Body, Zheng Fa has been asking himself the same question over and over again: As a woman who controls a thousand-year-old family and a mother, her son suddenly has a servant boy with a background who is beyond her control. What would she do? And each of his answers seemed not very optimistic. (End of this chapter)
