Am I the only one who didn't ascend?

Chapter 36: Playing tricks will not end well
The greatest shame for a family is that its precious heritage is placed in the enemy's display cabinet.

Therefore, when Zhang Yu showed Shi Yue the Fengjing Divine Glass Shield, although he said he wanted to show respect to the Shi family, his true intentions were also obvious.

Just like tearing a scar, it shows the decline of the Shi family to the descendants of the Shi family.

If it were in the past, Shi Yue would have been furious.

Unlike those children of the family who bowed to reality early on and were willing to flatter the new rich, Shi Yue never gave up hope of reviving her family. Those traditions and honors that seemed illusory to others always had a place in her heart.

This is a kind of stubbornness that is unreasonable and does not consider gains and losses.

Everyone in Shijie knew Shi Yue's stubbornness, and therefore, while a few people laughed at her for not knowing her own abilities, more people chose to respect this young debt-ridden girl.

Of course, Zhang Yu also knew Shi Yue's temperament, so raising this topic was almost a naked attempt to irritate her.

Shi Yue was naturally angry, but he did not release this anger.

Faced with Zhang Yu's question, she suppressed her anger and chose to ignore it.

"Boss Zhang, this unscrupulous visit is about Luo Xiao. His Taixu Station was unreasonably seized by Qingping Division, an important transaction was frozen, and the funds were disconnected. He is on the verge of bankruptcy."

After a pause, Shi Yue recalled the rhetoric taught by Wang Luo and said the same.

"Boss Zhang, you are the richest man in Stone Street, and you are even more respected as the Jade Master. You are a well-deserved figure in the local area. Now that the neighbors are in trouble, you should take the lead and set an example, and you should not just sit back and watch. You have many contacts in Rongcheng, can you contact some big shots to come forward? Coordination? Your family is worth hundreds of millions, and a small amount of negotiation fees are just a drop in the bucket to you, but to those ordinary Shijie people, they are more important than Mount Tai..."

Before Shi Yue finished speaking, Zhang Yu could no longer maintain his calm and condescending posture.He subconsciously relaxed the hands clasped behind his back, and his eyelids trembled slightly.

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

Shi Yue replied somewhat numbly: "To understand something is based on reason, and to move something is based on emotion."

"You are clearly borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha and showing generosity to others!"

Shi Yue nodded: "That's okay."

At least it sounds better than free prostitution!
Zhang Yu finally felt surprised, looked at the girl again, and said: "These words really don't sound like you said them, but more like you were instructed by others to pass the message on their behalf."

Shi Yue did not deny it: "Yes, it was Wang Luo who taught me. If you have any opinions, just ask him. Anyway, Boss Zhang must know him. If not, he would not have provoked Qingping Division to investigate Boss Luo so quickly. Account."

For this reason, Shi Yue is obviously not afraid of breaking up anymore - people have put out the cultural relics of the Shi family to provoke them, so what can she do to be polite?No matter whether Zhang Yu is pushing for the closure of the small station by Qingping Division, let’s put the blame first!

Zhang Yu was silent for a while and said: "This matter has nothing to do with me. How could I provoke Qingpingsi to target the neighbors on Shijie? Shi Yue, you are a villain."

Shi Yue said: "Then with Boss Zhang's broad mind, are you willing to rescue Boss Luo and save him from danger?"

Zhang Yu said: "I have never had any friendship with Luo Xiao, and I know nothing about his character. Now that Qingping Division believes that there is something wrong with him, am I going to excuse him because of your words? That way Where does this place the commercial order of Stone Street? Where does it place the majesty of the law?"

Shi Yue sighed and said, "So in conclusion, Boss Zhang means that he refuses to help?"

Zhang Yu said: "Even if I step back [-] steps, what if I am really willing to help? Now is the time when Qingping Division carries out special inspections and rectifications, and everything will only be severe. And although my business is small, If you have achieved something, why should the dignified Qingpingsi show mercy to someone at this critical moment?"

Shi Yue said: "So to sum up, Boss Zhang means that he is unwilling to help?"

Zhang Yu couldn't help but get angry: "You came to my house just to say these weird words?"

Shi Yue said: "So to sum up..."

"That's enough!" Zhang Yu finally took the lead to break through the defense, and he was furious, "Is the dignified No. [-] Jade Master acting like a clown?!"

Shi Yue finally stopped rereading and felt a chill in his heart.

In this game to see who could break through the defense first, she strictly followed the instructions of the mountain master, and as expected she won an overwhelming victory!

Zhang Yu's defiant reaction was enough to explain a lot of things. Her purpose of testing today had basically been achieved.So the next step is to think about what to do if Zhang Yu invites the guardian martial artist to come over and beat someone!

However, at this moment, I suddenly saw a panicked girl dressed as a maid walking quickly from the stairs.

The girl has a beautiful appearance and a graceful figure. Although she is wearing a maid's clothes, her hair, wrists and other parts are full of exquisite jewelry. It is obvious that she is very favored by her master.

But at this moment, Zhang Yu obviously had no intention of caring for the girl, and immediately turned down his face: "Didn't I tell you not to disturb me when you have nothing to do!?"

The girl immediately knew that she had come at the wrong time, but she had no choice but to defend herself aggrievedly: "The third young master is back, and he is clamoring to see the master. I really can't stop him..."

Zhang Yu restrained his anger a little and said, "What's that useless thing doing back here? Let him wait outside!"

However, just as they were talking, a thumping sound was heard from the stairs. It was obvious that the third young master did not intend to wait outside.

Zhang Yu had no choice but to bow his hands to Shi Yue: "Excuse me for temporarily excused myself, Xuewei, take the guests to the tea room on the fourth floor to rest."

-

The layout of Zhang's teahouse is different from other places: there is a large square-shaped counter in front of it. Inside the cabinet, precious tea leaves from five states and hundreds of countries are warmed by the magical power of the rich and pure glass cover, which can be picked at any time.

After the distinguished guests who come to visit are brought here by the maid, a special tea master will come to display their skills.

This is almost a standard feature for wealthy families in Rongcheng. As the richest man in Stone Street, Zhang Yugui was not exempt from the custom. He spent a lot of money to hire a tea master from Youcheng who was the founder of a sect. According to legend, he was immersed in tea ceremony all his life, and his every move was exquisite. It can make people feel green...

Unfortunately, after Shi Yue took a seat in the tea room, the master was not there for a long time, and the maid Chi Xuewei was obviously distracted, poking at the door, her eyes wandering, and her ears twitching, as if she was eavesdropping.After a while, he simply bowed to Shi Yue and excused himself: "My maid, go find Master Zhuang right now!"

Looking for Master Zhuang was obviously just an excuse. The girl's leaving figure didn't look like she was coming back at all.

Shi Yue was also very happy. When he saw Chi Xuewei walking away, he just curled his lips and said, "What age are you in? You are still a master and a slave, taking pictures of mirages of the past? It's true that people from the past don't have as many rules as you do." ah……"

Then she felt a little thirsty again - when she was facing off against Zhang Yu, she seemed to be at ease, but in fact, her inner tension had reached the extreme.

How could a young girl with a declining family and tens of millions in debt not be nervous when facing the head of a large family with a fortune of hundreds of millions and a history of 200 years?She relied on the burning of the stone in her belly to have endless courage.It’s just that if there is too much fire, thirst will become inevitable.

The tea master didn't arrive, so Shi Yue got up to find some water. However, in this large tea room, there were hundreds of different types of tea trees on the counter, but there was not even a kettle.

But while looking for water to drink, Shi Yue unexpectedly discovered that the layout of the teahouse was inexplicably familiar, as if he had been there countless times.

This is of course unrealistic. The decline of the Shi family is a long process that lasts for hundreds of years. When Shi Yue was born, the Shi family could only be regarded as a middle-class family. Of course, a middle-class family cannot be equipped with a dedicated tea room... In a daze , suddenly an idea flashed in the girl's mind, and she thought of the source of this sense of déjà vu.

A long time ago, my mother once held an old book and told her the past of the Shi family, telling every detail of the compound that had carried the family's glory for thousands of years.

Of course, my mother has never lived in that courtyard. Her knowledge of the courtyard comes from the ancestors' notes that have been passed down for hundreds of years in the family. However, she seems to be really living in the old Shi family and can hold her daughter's hand. Hands, introduce every detail of the home to her.

In the mother's story, the Shi family has such an elegant tea room, which contains all kinds of rare tea plants enshrined by the immortals of Kyushu in Lingshan.Many heads of the Shi family like to practice breathing in this teahouse and receive distinguished guests.

And perhaps, the tearoom arranged by Zhang Yu on the fourth floor, like the glass cover of the Fengjing God, is a legacy of the Shi family.

Thinking of this, Shi Yue's heart suddenly moved and he said to himself: "If it is really the inheritance of the Shi family, then according to the records in the book..."

As she spoke, she stood up and walked to a corner of the tea room. She stood on an old square brick and rubbed her hand along the wooden wall until her fingertips touched a small bump.

"There is."

The next moment, the stone fire in his belly ignited again, and he stirred up his spiritual thoughts to look outside. Sure enough, he found an invisible network that was so subtle that it was invisible.

And through this fine net flowing in the rich and pure divine glass cover, Shi Yue is like a connected tree eye.

Then, she heard the conversation that took place on the third floor.
