I'm the villain in the book

Chapter 435: The Passerby's Obsession with Pretending
Half an hour later, what happened in the early court had already reached Wei Changtian's ears.

And when he heard the news that Ning Yongnian had decided to open a warehouse to release grain, he also had a smile on his face like Wei Xianzhi.

That's right, all of this was actually planned by him and Wei Xianzhi.

Wei Xianzhi deliberately acted so arrogantly in the early court, the purpose was to force Ning Yongnian to open a warehouse to save the market.

After all, the purpose of Wei Changtian's economic war is not to starve the people of Daning to death, but to attack Ning Yongnian, or the court of Daning.

Then, he had to force Ning Yongnian to use the "grain reserve" to rescue the market.

Daning is currently fighting on two fronts in Dafeng and Shuzhou, and the treasury has already become tight.

Now coupled with the large quantities of low-priced food distribution, Ning Yongnian has already started to worry about money.

No matter what era, wars are fought with money.

But in ancient times, it was not like the modern times where money can be issued infinitely, so there are only two channels for Ning Yongnian to make money——

[-]. Grab the big players.

[-]. Exploitation of common people.

Judging from Daning's current expenses for maintaining the two wars, the money that can be obtained through the former channel is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket.

After all, the richest family in Daning now lives in Shuzhou City.

Then Ning Yongnian can only make up for the financial gap through the latter method.

Increasing taxes, reducing official salaries, and even reducing military pay can be predicted that these policies will be introduced in the near future.

And at that time, Wei Changtian's ultimate goal will be achieved.

For this reason, he doesn't mind continuing to make things bigger.

"Is it food?"

"Hmph, I'd like to see how much food you have to store."

Muttering with a sinister smile, Wei Changtian suddenly felt that he must look like a big profiteer in his current appearance.

Tut tut, I'm so bad!

The satisfied self in his heart said "praise", and then he restrained his expression, raised his head and asked Zhang San.

"Where's Xu Suisui? Why hasn't he recovered after so long?"

"Master Xu, Miss Xu."

"Brother! I'm coming!"

Before Zhang San could finish his sentence, another crisp voice came in from outside the room.

"Blind date, I always want to dress up beautifully!"

Blind date
The corners of Wei Changtian's mouth twitched slightly, and he raised his eyes to look at Xu Suisui who just came in from the door.

"What is the difference between you today and before? Where is your dress?"

"Oh, you don't understand!"

Xu Suisui was very proud: "Just don't see the difference! This is called scheming makeup!"

"Scheming makeup?"

"It's a kind of makeup that you straight men can't see!"

Xu Suisui was too lazy to explain to Wei Changtian, and after answering a casual sentence, he yelled to leave quickly.

And Wei Changtian rolled his eyes, and explained in a low voice to Zhang San who was a little confused while walking:

"Zhang San, the so-called straight man is an upright man."

"Oh I got it."

Zhang San suddenly realized and nodded, and then said with some regret:
"Young master, then I'm afraid I'm not a straight man."

"Well, you really can't be considered a straight man."

Wei Changtian patted Zhang San on the shoulder and sighed, "Actually I'm not either."

"really."

Zhang San immediately agreed: "My lord, you are indeed not honest."

Wei Changtian: "???"

Another half an hour passed.

Just when Ning Yongnian immediately released the news of "opening warehouses to help the market" in an attempt to boost "market confidence", Wei Changtian and Xu Suisui had already arrived at Weiyang Palace, and when they saw Shen Ran and It's Pai'an.

About why Shen Ran didn't come to him, Wei Changtian didn't ask, but the former gave the reason on his own initiative.

Shen Ran said that he originally wanted to understand the four sentences of Hengqu before visiting him, so that he could ask Wei Changtian about them by the way.

However, due to my dull mind, I haven't been able to comprehend the true meaning for several days, so I have been embarrassed to go.

Obviously, this reason is really a bit forced, and Wei Changtian has a hundred doubts in his heart.

But he didn't bother to guess what Shen Ran was waiting for.

Anyway, since I have come today, I can finally start to implement my "genius plan"——

With the help of Shen Ran, whoring the luck of all the sons of heaven for nothing.

Of course, before that, Xu Suisui's "blind date" had to be dealt with.

"."

"Cough, Mr. Shen, return to the first assistant."

With a dry cough, Wei Changtian pointed to Xu Suisui who looked disappointed, and introduced solemnly: "This is my cousin, Xu Suisui."

"She has been fond of poetry since she was a child, and her level of poetry writing is not inferior to mine. It's just that she has been keeping a low profile before, so her reputation is not obvious."

"Today she heard that I was coming to see Gui Shoufu, so she insisted on coming to see Shoufu's true face, haha, I hope you two are no wonder."

Wei Changtian's introduction gave Xu Suisui enough face.

However, the latter didn't appreciate it, and has been looking at Wei Changtian angrily since he entered the door, his eyes seemed to say——

You big liar!How is this Shen Ran so handsome? !

"Sister, what are you doing in a daze?"

Wei Changtian could probably guess what Xu Suisui was thinking now. Although he felt helpless, he couldn't get angry in front of Shen Ran and Gui Pei'an, so he kept secretly reminding Xu Suisui to save face.

And the latter is also considered sensible, after glaring at Wei Changtian, he gave him a half-blessing.

"My little girl met Gui Shoufu and Mr. Shen"

"haha okay."

Facing this reluctant greeting, Gui Pei'an just smiled meaningfully and didn't say much.

But Shen Ran bowed his hands and returned the gift solemnly.

"Meet Miss Xu."

"Suisui. Long live Qianqiu, wheat ears are different, good name."

"."

Check it out!Check it out!
People who really have ink in their stomachs speak differently!
Wei Changtian instantly remembered that when he heard Xu Suisui's name for the first time, his first reaction was "Sui Sui Ping An", and he immediately felt like a country bumpkin.

Not only Wei Changtian wanted to applaud Shen Ran at the moment, but even Xu Suisui seemed a little surprised at the moment.

After all, she has traveled here for half a year, and this is the first time she knows the meaning of her name.

"That. Sister, Mr. Shen."

Sensing the change in Xu Suisui's eyes, Wei Changtian seized the opportunity and hurriedly said, "I have something to discuss with Gui Shoufu alone, so you two can talk casually first."

"Sister, Mr. Shen is the holy son of Kuixing Academy, and he has a very high attainment in poetry. Don't be as arrogant and indulgent as you were at home."

Xu Suisui was reminded inside and outside the words, Wei Changtian soon left with Gui Pei'an who had already understood what was going on.

It wasn't until the two of them disappeared completely that Xu Suisui came back to his senses, and looked up at Shen Ran curiously.

Although not handsome, but as Wei Changtian said, the temperament is indeed good.

But I always feel out of place
Xu Suisui's mental activities became richer the more he watched, but Shen Ran was stared at by her a little hairy. After holding back for a while, he finally couldn't help asking:

"Miss Xu, why don't we sit down and talk?"

"Oh, good."

Xu Suisui nodded and sat down, and she was very "lady" without crossing her legs.

The two of them just sat there staring at each other for a while, and finally Shen Ran found a topic by force.

"Cough, Miss Xu."

"I just heard Mr. Wei say that you have been fond of poetry since you were young, so you think you will write poetry regularly in your daily life."

"I don't know girl."

"Huh? Poetry?"

Before Shen Ran could finish speaking, Xu Suisui's eyes suddenly lit up, and his whole body suddenly became energetic.

Her expression now is exactly the same as when Wei Changtian finally got the chance to recite the song "Yun Xiang Clothes and Flower Xiang Rong".

It's the traverser's obsession with pretending to be aggressive!
"Mr. Shen! You want to hear me recite, ah no, do you want to compose poems?!"

ps: Let me talk about it here. Some people say that the character of Xu Suisui looks rather abrupt, but she is an important character in the whole book until the end. After reading it, I can understand why she is portrayed in this way.
