Chapter 1697: Raising the Price
This is normal. He has no experience and doesn't know where to start when encountering serious matters. If he doesn't ask himself for help, who else can he ask?
The spring plowing season is just around the corner. If he doesn't ask for help now, when will he ask for help?
But, if you ask for help, you should have the attitude of asking for help, right?
Guanzhou Cheng sneered. Who did he think he was? He had screwed me over so badly in the matter of the yamen runners, and he still wanted me to work hard for him?
Oh, even if he is your immediate superior, the prefect, that won’t work!
I always have to let him hit a wall first, make him panic, and make him helpless, and then I can take action myself. Only in this way can I show my ability and make him understand who he should rely on in this Anze Province.
The most important thing is that he suffered heavy losses in this matter with the yamen runners, and lost all his face and dignity, so he had to make up for it.
Lord Shao seems to have a good family background...
So, Guanzhou Cheng declined.
He sent the butler to pass on the message, and he was very polite in his words. He had broken his bones and was injured. He was now recuperating and was really powerless. So he had to trouble Master Shao for the time being.
Please rest assured, Master Shao, when he gets better, he will immediately go to the government office to work and help Master Shao...
After hearing this, Shao Yunduan looked indifferent. He showed concern for Guanzhou Cheng and told him to take good care of his injuries. Health was the most important thing. As for the mission, he could come over when he was better...
To show his gratitude, Shao Yunduan asked Song Shi to prepare a gift and send it to Guanzhou Cheng.
Guanzhou Cheng became more and more proud!
What does Lord Shao mean by this? This is simply surrendering to me.
It seems that I made the right move.
Guanzhou Cheng felt relieved and felt more stable.
He planned to take Na Qiao away again and leave Shao Yunduan alone for a few days.
As for favors, they should naturally be given when the other party is in despair and at his wits' end. Only then will they appear precious and valuable.
This is called "saving someone from fire and water". This will make the other party remember to be grateful and will not be able to deny it even if they want to.
But he had no idea what Shao Yunduan was planning.
Shao Yunduan is used to doing things in two ways.
Taking the initiative to hand over the ladder to Guanzhou Cheng, he was giving Guanzhou Cheng a chance.
If Guanzhou Cheng had learned his lesson from the incident with the yamen runners, then if Shao Yunduan offered him the ladder, he would naturally come down.
Then he showed his talents well as an explanation to Shao Yunduan.
If he was a smart person, he would have taken the initiative to take charge of the spring planting seeds without Shao Yunduan saying anything more.
But Guan Zhoucheng didn't. Mrs. Guan's complaints "woke him up" and made him realize how important he was! He took it for granted that he wanted to manipulate Shao Yunduan first, and then he would appear like a savior to solve the problem, so that Shao Yunduan would have to rely on him, and let everyone see that his ability was much better than that of the prefect!
Let everyone see that I am still the one in charge of Anzezhou!
But he didn't know that if he chose to go down the stairs, in Shao Yunduan's eyes he could still win over.
But he chose to do the exact opposite. How could Shao Yunduan not understand what he was thinking?
Since he is stubborn and refuses to change his ways, Shao Yunduan will not be polite to him.
He has done what he should do with all his heart, and if Guanzhou Cheng doesn't appreciate it, he will never have another chance.
Shao Yunduan summoned the clerks to discuss the matter.
