Chapter 292 Shen Huai'en is chasing
Shen Nanzhi really couldn't understand men's minds. It's no use pursuing someone too much. When they stop pursuing you, you regret it instead.
Isn't this simply shameless?
Ding Xiangrong looked at the radiant Shen Nanzhi with a speechless look. Could he say that he rejected Xu Saifei because he had different feelings for Shen Nanzhi?
He works so hard to make money and show himself off just to make Shen Nanzhi look at him more.
That's why he is so resistant to Xu Saifei. He belongs to Nan Zhi, not to her, Xu Saifei. He must remain a virgin for Miss Nan Zhi.
But when Shen Nanzhi appeared, the look in her eyes towards him was the same as Shen Desheng and the others, without even a hint of ambiguity. Ding Xiangrong knew that he had no chance.
In the end, that fantasy was shattered. Shen Nanzhi had the ability to break men's charming thoughts about her. Even though she was as beautiful as a fairy now, no man really fell in love with her.
The same goes for Ding Xiangrong. When he wasn't seeing her, he missed her and all those things were his beautiful fantasies. But when they really met, the fantasies shattered like eggs.
In fact, most of the good feelings people have about the opposite sex are created in their minds. When they really get along with each other, the fantasy is shattered and the feelings are gone.
Therefore, beautiful love is all in the imagination and cannot withstand the erosion of trivialities in life.
Now that Ding Xiangrong has woken up, Xu Saifei doesn't want him anymore. How can Ding Xiangrong bear this?
Isn't this the same as losing both the sesame and the watermelon? Isn't this the same as losing everything?
Ding Xiangrong collected his confused thoughts and said, "I was ignorant before, I just wanted to go home and let my parents make the decision, and I never met a girl like her, wasn't I wrong?
I have realized my mistake these days. If Miss Xu still needs me, I am willing to marry her."
Shen Nanzhi chuckled: "Brother Ding, we have been friends for so many years, I'm telling you the truth, if you think so, give up as soon as possible, Miss Xu is such a proud girl, you can't just say that you are wrong and willing to marry her to erase the harm you have done to her.
If you really want to marry her, unless you really like her, or even love her, and want to be with her even if you have to give up everything you have, or even marry into her family's family, only that kind of strong love can make up for the hurt she has caused you.
No one can stay there and wait for you to come back. The initial miss and hurt cannot be wiped out with a simple apology. "
Ding Xiangrong was confused. He couldn't figure out what he was thinking about Xu Saifei. "Do I really have no chance?"
Shen Nanzhi said: "You can ask Miss Xu about this. Now it's not a question of whether you are willing to marry her, but whether she is willing to marry you.
There was a rare opportunity in front of you, but you didn't know how to cherish it. Now you have missed it and want to make up for it. Do you think you are Miss Xu and can forgive me?"
"No."
Ding Xiangrong said bitterly, his depressed look made Shen Nanzhi feel very pitiful, "Come on, stop pretending to be a love saint. You are not that kind of person. You have been peeping at widows bathing in the town since you were a child, and you have been hiding in haystacks with girls in the village at the age of thirteen. Who doesn't know your little tricks?"
Ding Xiangrong's face flushed, "Shen Nanzhi, how do you know everything? You have dug up all my past, please give me some face.
Besides, those are just for fun, it's a man's physiological instinct, is it appropriate for a girl like you to worry about this?"
Shen Nanzhi suddenly said seriously: "I can't even control the two taels of meat in my crotch. I blame everything on instinct. Miss Xu doesn't want a man like this.
Let’s not talk about asking men to keep themselves clean, but at least they have to be responsible after sleeping with the woman they love. If a man doesn’t recognize you after he puts up his pants, no good girl would want such a man.
You should just continue to be a playboy, and stop being a love saint. No one knows how long your love can last, and maybe you don't know it yourself, right? "
Ding Xiangrong had nothing to say. After all, he had really harmed the girl a lot, but it was all consensual, right?
Suddenly, he saw behind Shen Nanzhi, his face turned pale. Xu Saifei walked out from behind the pillar with a complicated look in her eyes. It was unknown how long she had been listening.
"Xu, Miss Xu."
Shen Nanzhi turned around and said, "Miss Xu, you guys can chat. I'm going to go out for a walk."
Xu Saifei nodded: "Okay, go ahead and get busy."
She didn't know what the two were talking about, but she saw that the people on the street were smiling more. They were all waiting for the cheap grain to be delivered from outside. If they couldn't bear it any longer, they could go to the county magistrate to buy a few kilograms of low-priced grain. They had to have a household registration in the county, and it had to be confirmed that the country was in dire straits before he would sell them some so that they wouldn't starve to death.
Under such circumstances, grain merchants soon became restless. They had not sold a pound of grain for three days. If this continued, they would not make any money but would suffer heavy losses instead.
The grain merchants all gathered at Mr. Jin's house, waiting for his decision: should they sell at a low price now, or hold on?
No one was sure what the court's rules were. According to past practice, disaster relief was very slow. Funds were allocated layer by layer, and by the time the court's grain arrived, the disaster was almost over.
This year, a Mr. Yang appeared, making the grain merchants uneasy.
Mr. Jin felt better and his complexion improved after taking the painkillers, but the series of bad news made him lose his smile.
"President Jin, can you please say something?"
Mr. Lin asked anxiously, representing the thoughts of several grain merchants.
Mr. Jin asked: "Even if we lower the price now, with County Magistrate Chen obstructing us, will the people buy it?
Unless we lower the price to the level before the disaster, how can we make any profit?
We have already done what we have done, so we must persevere to the end. I don’t believe that the imperial court will send relief grain.”
The grain merchants felt more at ease, "Then should we wait a little longer?"
"Well, wait. There is still a month before the Chinese New Year. Even after the Chinese New Year, the whole spring is a time of scarcity. We have food in our hands, so what are we afraid of?"
The grain merchants all said, "That's right. Since Master Jin said so, we will follow your footsteps."
"Just follow me, I won't let you suffer any loss. We can make money together."
Of course, the compensation would also be paid together. Before Master Jin could finish the rest of his words, he would definitely not bring these indecisive people along to play if he was not strong enough.
He made enough money this time. From now on, he will be the only grain merchant in the county, and these people will be his stepping stones.
Mr. Jin was ambitious. He suddenly felt his heart beating violently and his breathing paused for a moment, but it soon returned to normal and he didn't care.
……
Ding Xiangrong left and returned home in glory with the generous reward given by Shen Nanzhi, but he lost the most important thing. Xu Saifei completely broke up with him and there was no possibility for her to be with him anymore.
From then on, he could only accept his family's arrangement, marry a pretty village girl, have children, and live an ordinary life like most villagers.
After he left, a new acquaintance came over. Shen Nanzhi didn't expect to see Shen Huai'en on the street and thought she was dazzled. She rubbed her eyes and opened them again. It was still him, walking towards her with a familiar gentle smile.
"Wai En, it's really you."
"You are not seeing things, you are mine. I knew you wouldn't come back until you had enough fun, so I had to come to find you in person. Otherwise, I would be waiting at home for so long, and some heartless person wouldn't even think of me."
Shen Nanzhi felt that something was wrong. He was talking as if he were her husband. This was crossing the line!
"Shen Huai'en, I am the master. How dare you talk to me like that?"
"Yes, I know I was wrong, but when I saw you, I couldn't help but speak my mind. I will pay attention next time."
Shen Nanzhi: "..."
What are you paying attention to? What can't you help? It's even more misleading!
"Did you come here by yourself?"
"No, I came here with the grain merchants. Grain merchants from nearby counties heard that grain prices here are high, so they flocked here. Is this what you want to see?"
"Of course," Shen Nanzhi said proudly, "Let's go back and talk. I'll tell you about this county. It really opened my eyes. There are so many weird people here."
"it is good."
The two returned to the Xu family together. It was more convenient to live here. Anyway, the Xu family was big enough and the owners were only Master Xu and his daughter, so it was enough space for them to live in.
Without disturbing Xu Saifei, Shen Nanzhi took Huai En directly to the yard where he had settled down.
Shen Huai'en looked around her residence and fortunately, she was not wronged.
"Have some tea, it'll warm you up. It's so cold, why did you come here?"
"I'm your housekeeper, we should always be together. There's nothing going on in the village, and I'd be worried if I didn't come.
Besides, I'm not that weak. Have you forgotten that I taught you your internal skills?"
Shen Nanzhi's eyes flashed, it seemed like that was the case. She always felt that Shen Huai'en was still the poor little guy who was being hunted by others, weak and helpless, and needed her protection.
"Okay, you are awesome. Let me tell you, not all honest officials are good. The magistrate of Qinghe County really opened my eyes. I don't know how to evaluate him..."
Shen Nanzhi changed the subject and talked about what she had encountered. Shen Huai'en listened silently. After drinking two cups of tea, he asked, "You set up a plan to first transport a small amount of grain and let the grain merchants eat it. Then spread the news to attract all the grain merchants, causing the county to flood with grain, and the price will naturally drop. This plan is very good. How did you come up with it?"
"Business wars are like battlefields. There are many tricks. This is just an ordinary trick. If you want to destroy a place's economy, there are many dirty tricks. What you saw is just one of them. Don't be so surprised."
She had encountered countless business wars in her previous life. Using boiling water to kill the opponent's money tree was the most low-level method, just like a child playing house.
The real business war takes place in the stock market. It can make people rich overnight, or it can cause them to be heavily in debt and unable to pay it off until they die.
This little trick is useless. It is also due to the backwardness of business in ancient times. Everyone lived in their own small circle and could not see the overall situation, so they thought they could control everything.
