Dai Zhou picked up the phone and dialed Liu Rengui's number.

At this time, Liu Rengui was handling official business in Qingzhou. He was over fifty years old and had gray hair on his temples, but his eyes were still sharp and he was handling official documents meticulously. Suddenly, the phone next to him rang. He glanced at the number and felt it was familiar, so he answered it.

Got up.

"Who?" Liu Rengui asked.

"I'm Dai Zhou! Are you Liu Rengui?" A familiar voice came from the other end of the phone.

"I'm Liu Rengui, so it's you. Do you have anything to do with me?" Although the two were officials in the same court, they had never had much contact.

This is how people are, if they don't have contact for too long, they can easily become alienated.

Therefore, the two of them are quite unfamiliar.

"I heard that you have been in Qingzhou?" Dai Zhou started to ask.

"Yes, I have been in Qingzhou for some years." Liu Rengui replied.

Liu Rengui didn't understand why Dai Zhou asked this.

But he still told the truth.

Dai Zhou asked again: "How are you doing now?"

Obviously, Dai Zhou was looking for a topic in order to introduce it.

This is human nature. It would be too utilitarian for Naoko to talk to him directly.

"It's still the same as before. There are endless official matters to deal with every day, and we have to deal with the inspections of officials from Chang'an City." Liu Rengui said.

"By the way, I heard that you went to Shengtang Group?" Liu Rengui asked casually.

When Dai Zhou heard this, he felt happy. He didn't expect Liu Rengui to take the initiative to tell him this. That was great, so he immediately said: "Yes, I have been working in Shengtang Group for more than half a year."

As the chat between the two deepened.

"Quite good, your son-in-law is also from Shengtang Group. Di Renjie has always been a very capable person! It is really a good thing to have a relationship with Di Renjie. If I have a daughter, I will definitely marry Di Renjie.

Liu Rengui said with envy in his tone.

The two were chatting, and then Dai Zhou suddenly said: "Liu Rengui, I have something to talk to you about, and discuss it with you to see what you think?"

When Liu Rengui heard this, he felt that what Dai Zhou was going to say might be a big deal, so he responded: "Say! What is it? I'm listening!"

When he thought about it carefully, Dai Zhou probably wouldn't ask him for help.

There is no need to help yourself or anything like that.

Because his work in the Shengtang Group was very good, he didn't ask himself to do anything to help him.

Dai Zhou then said: "That's it. Now my husband is in urgent need of help, and I recommended you to him. He is very eager for your talent, so he discussed it with me. I now invite you to join Shengtang

Group, I wonder what you think?"

After hearing what Dai Zhou said, Liu Rengui paused for three seconds, seeming to be considering the pros and cons of this matter. Then he said:

"We receive a salary from the court and do court affairs! We have always been in peace with each other, so I can't leave the court yet, and the whole Qingzhou also needs my help. The prince consort and the princess have been doing things in Qingzhou before.

Later, after they left, Qingzhou has been in a state of no one. There is no way, I can only take care of this matter. Now if I agree to you, the entire Qingzhou will be empty, which is a big loss to the people of Qingzhou.

, and I will also feel sorry for the court."

Liu Rengui also has his own reason for saying this. People must know how to be grateful. If you don't have a grateful heart, what is the difference between it and wood?

Dai Zhou actually knew this matter well.

He thought so at the time. Later, Li Shimin was so angry that he stayed away from the court, and Li Min gave him a second life. He felt that the rest of his life should be spent in the Shengtang Group.

Passed.

As someone who has experienced this, Dai Zhou still understands the relationship between this.

And wasn’t Liu Rengui also demoted to Qingzhou?

When it comes to being aggrieved, Liu Rengui is really aggrieved.

But Dai Zhou said: "About your incident in Qingzhou, sir, I have also heard about it. You were implicated in the affairs of Li Yi Mansion and were demoted to Qingzhou. Sir, you also sympathized with this. In Qingzhou, you are the only one in Qingzhou."

You may be doing things for the Tang Dynasty, but if you come to the Shengtang Group, you will be doing things for the entire world."

When Dai Zhou said this, he was very eager to hope that Liu Rengui would agree to him, but having said that, it was not easy to convince such an official, and it was done over the phone.

At least people have to reach Qingzhou before they can be convinced, right?

But Liu Rengui still said: "I can't agree to this for the time being. I hope you can understand, and I hope you can talk to your husband about it. I can't just leave Qingzhou. Obviously Liu Rengui has a heart of iron and doesn't want to leave Qingzhou."

Regarding this matter, Dai Zhou seemed to be aware of the result.

"We're really not in a hurry about this. Maybe we can talk about it later." Dai Zhou tried to ease Liu Rengui's reaction.

Obviously, Liu Rengui's reaction was still a little too big.

However, despite Dai Zhou's efforts, Liu Rengui did not buy it. He continued: "That's what I think at the moment. I won't have any thoughts of leaving for the time being. If there is nothing, then let's do this for now. I still have some money on hand.

There’s a lot to deal with.”

Liu Rengui has expressed his intention to hang up the phone.

Dai Zhou had no choice. Since he had said so, he couldn't say anything else.

So, he could only say: "Okay, I'll come back to you later."

Then he hung up the phone.

Then he sighed.

It seems that it is naturally difficult to convince Liu Rengui. This matter is really more difficult than I imagined.

Seeing this, Xue Rengui can only take action. Maybe Xue Rengui has a way.

Maybe Xue Rengui could persuade him to come by visiting Qingzhou.

To be honest, he still hopes to work with Liu Rengui.

It would be really great if Liu Rengui could be allowed to reach Dongzhou.

If Princess Changle is added, the probability of success will be even greater.

So Dai Zhou called Li Min's number again.

I really need to talk to him about this, but actually he doesn’t want to do this.

In less than half an hour, Dai Zhou was defeated.

He was still saying that he could do it before, but now it seems that the slap in the face came too quickly.

As for Dai Zhou's call, Li Min seemed to have guessed the result.

Otherwise, he would not let Xue Rengui get involved.

"Dai Zhou, what's wrong?"

Dai Zhou said at this time: "Sir! There is something I have to tell you."

Li Min asked directly: "Does Liu Rengui disagree?"

Dai Zhou was a little surprised. He really didn't expect that Li Min had guessed it.

"Yes, sir!" But what he said is true, Li Min had to ask a second person to do this, which shows that Liu Rengui must be very difficult to deal with.

"It's okay. I won't blame you. Generally speaking, people who can stay with the emperor for such a long time may have a firm heart. So it may be very difficult."

At that time, Li Min spent a lot of effort to get Dai Zhou to come to Shengtang Group.

Not to mention Liu Rengui, Liu Rengui is still a bit loyal.

Therefore, it is naturally quite difficult to deal with Liu Rengui.

"But he and I were colleagues many years ago, but due to some things we lacked communication, otherwise we would have been able to complete the task very easily."

What Dai Zhou said is actually true. Liu Rengui has been in Qingzhou for such a long time.

But he is not excusing himself, and what he said are all facts.

And Dai Zhou has been in Chang'an City. It can be said that since Liu Rengui left, there has been less communication between the two, so if they contact each other again, it will be a bit abrupt.

Therefore, it is reasonable to say that Dai Zhou cannot complete this matter.

"It's okay, I don't mean to blame you!"

Li Min said this. But even so, Dai Zhou's heart was still full of embarrassment.

"Regarding this matter, I will let Xue Rengui intervene and ask Princess Changle to go back later. They haven't gone back to Qingzhou for a long time. It's just the right time to go back."

Li Min said this.

Dai Zhou didn't say anything more.

However, he finally said: "Sir, if you need me, just ask."

"Okay, you go about your business first, I'll contact Xue Rengui now."

Li Min finally said yes.
