If she could let Shao Tianze turn over so easily, she wouldn't be Gu Cheng's daughter, Gu Changge.
Shao Tianze had been her husband for many years. She couldn't guess what Shao Tianze wanted to do, but she could guess 70% or 80% of it.
Now, Shao Tianze really wanted to turn over the Shao Family in the matter of Shao Xue's marriage.
However, if Shao Xue married the Luo Family who hated the Shao Family.
Then Shao Tianze's plan would be in vain.
The Luo Family would not give the Shao Family any substantial help after putting on a show.
…
Mei Qi seemed to be a very reliable person.
It was also very easy to erase the traces of contact between the Luo Family and the Song Family. Song Yunxuan contacted the Luo Family secretly. Except for a few people around her, basically no one else knew.
As long as the Luo Family united their words, it would be difficult for Shao Tianze to find out no matter how capable he was.
Shao Tianze investigated for two days, but there was no trace.
It was time to reply to Luo Jiachi.
He went to discuss with Gu Changle about marrying Shao Xue to the Luo Family.
Gu Changle frowned and said, "Is there really no other contact between the Luo Family and the Song Family?"
She still felt a little unconvinced.
Shao Tianze nodded, "I have sent someone to investigate. The Luo Family and the Song Family really had no contact before."
Gu Changle frowned, "How is it possible …"
Seeing Gu Changle frowning, Shao Tianze comforted her, "It has been investigated. You can rest assured. Next, we have to think about marrying Shao Xue to the Luo Family."
Gu Changle frowned, "It's just marrying her. The Luo Family will prepare for the wedding. We just need to provide some dowry."
In fact, since Shao Tianze had decided to marry Shao Xue, the main thing he came to discuss with Gu Changle was the amount of dowry for Shao Xue.
Shao Tianze stretched out five fingers and asked Gu Changle, "What do you think of this number?"
"Five million is OK."
Shao Tianze shook his head, "No."
"Five hundred thousand is too little." Even if she hated Shao Xue and couldn't wait to not add a penny to her dowry, Shao Xue was Shao Tianze's younger sister. She thought so in her heart and still cared about Shao Xue a little.
Shao Tianze smiled and said, "Not half a million."
"What's that?" Gu Changle began to have a bad feeling.
"Five million times ten," said Shao Tianze.
Gu Changle's eyes widened immediately, "Are you crazy? If you give her a dowry of fifty million, you might as well let her fight for it. "
Gu Changle was the first to object to the dowry of fifty million yuan.
Shao Tianze has his own idea: "After Shao Xue marries into the Luo Family, she will be the daughter-in-law of the Luo Family. Our dowry of fifty million yuan is for Luo Jiachi to see."
"What can Old Master Luo see?" Gu Changle was distressed about the fifty million yuan. She felt that even if she sold Shao Xue, she couldn't get fifty million yuan.
"If we give Shao Xue a bigger dowry, Old Master Luo will see that we treat Shao Xue well. Only if we treat Shao Xue well and value her, Old Master Luo will also value our Shao Family after Shao Xue marries into the Luo Family."
Shao Tianze's words were reasonable.
The Luo Family wanted to unite with the Shao Family by marriage for benefits, not just for marrying Shao Xue.
If it were just for marrying Shao Xue, he would not marry Shao Xue.
He married Shao Xue to the Luo Family in the hope of getting help from the Luo Family.
If the Luo Family found that Shao Xue was not valued by the Shao Family after she married into the Luo Family, they would feel uncomfortable.
And this kind of discomfort was likely to lead the Luo Family to stand by and watch the Shao Family in crisis.
Shao Tianze told Gu Changle all the pros and cons.
Although Gu Changle still frowned, she was not as determined as before. She just discussed with Shao Tianze, "How about giving Shao Xue thirty million yuan? Fifty million yuan is too much. "
"Thirty million yuan doesn't show that we value Shao Xue."
"Then forty million yuan." Gu Changle felt that it was better to give as little as possible. It was best to keep it for herself.
Shao Tianze shook his head, "Fifty million yuan is the most suitable."
Since Shao Tianze insisted on giving Shao Xue fifty million yuan as a dowry, Gu Changle could not change Shao Tianze's mind. She could only let Shao Tianze give it like this.
However, no matter how she thought about it, she felt that it was a loss.
But there was no way to stop him. She could only sulk in her stomach.
After Shao Tianze discussed with Gu Changle, he waited for the Luo Family to call.
However, no matter how long he waited, the Luo family didn't call as promised.
The Luo Family did not call on time. Shao Tianze felt a strong uneasiness in his heart.
He waited for the Luo Family to call all night, and he did not sleep well.
The next morning, he called Gu Changle, "The Luo Family did not call last night."
Gu Changle was happy to save the fifty million yuan, "Is it possible that the Luo Family reneged on their promise?"
"It's unlikely. The Luo Family should not be the kind of family that goes back on its word."
Gu Changle said, "It's hard to say. Wait a little longer today. If there is still no news from the Luo Family, we will take the second best option and marry the Shao Family to Zhou Kang, the third son of the Zhou Family. Zhou Kang is a Wall Street trader who returned from abroad. He is a promising young man."
Gu Changle was happy in her heart. Zhou Kang was not that kind of elite prince charming. Although he had a high education and seemed to have good personal ability, he was very impulsive and irritable. It was said that he had a tendency to domestic violence. His first wife divorced him because of this reason.
If Shao Xue married him, she would not have a good life after marriage.
Gu Changle's little abacus rattled in her mind.
Shao Tianze did not nod. Instead, he frowned and said, "Let's talk about it later."
He still preferred to marry Shao Xue to the Luo Family. Since the Luo Family was such a good choice, how could he consider other families that were inferior to the Luo Family?
Seeing that Shao Tianze seemed not to consider Zhou Kang, Gu Changle could only put this topic aside first. She would talk to Shao Tianze about the Zhou Family and Shao Xue when the Luo Family really had no intention of marrying Shao Xue.
Anyway, if the Luo Family had no intention of marrying Shao Xue, Shao Xue's value in Shao Tianze's heart would be greatly reduced.
At that time, if she mentioned marrying Shao Xue to the Zhou Family again, Shao Tianze would not oppose it as he did now.
Shao Tianze was a little upset because the Luo Family did not contact him, so he was not in the mood to say more to Gu Changle.
He asked about Gu Changle's physical condition for a few more words and hung up the phone.
The Luo Family could naturally know that Shao Tianze was waiting anxiously.
However, Luo Xi was not so clear about Luo Jiachi's intention.
When playing chess with Luo Jiachi in the evening, Luo Xi could not help but ask him, "Grandpa, how is it going with the Shao Family?"
Being asked by his grandson, Luo Jiachi smiled and said shrewdly, "Don't be so anxious."
"I'm not very anxious. I just feel that … a long delay will bring trouble."
Looking at the expression on Luo Jiachi's face, Luo Xi guessed what he was thinking.
Luo Jiachi's eyes lingered on the chessboard and did not look at his grandson, "The Luo Family is not the only one who feels that a long delay will bring trouble. Now the Shao Family should also feel that a long delay will bring trouble and be restless."
"This …" Luo Xi frowned.
Luo Jiachi said, "It is the best choice for Shao Tianze to marry Shao Xue to the Luo Family. Except for us, he has no second choice."
"Then why didn't he agree when Grandpa called him?"
"Because he is still hesitating." Luo Jiachi said with a smile, "The more you hesitate about something, the more precious it is and you can't bear to give it up."
"He just wants to show that he values Shao Xue?"
"Yes." Luo Jiachi nodded and looked up at his grandson, "How much do you think Shao Tianze will arrange for Shao Xue's dowry?"
Being asked this question by his grandfather, Luo Xi hesitated for a moment and said, "Shao Xue is not Shao Tianze's biological sister, and she is not as favored and valued by Shao Tianze as people say. Therefore, the dowry should not be too much. 20 million yuan is the highest."
"If he only gives 20 million yuan, he will not be hesitating." Luo Jiachi smiled and then moved his chess piece to suppress his grandson's chess piece, "You made a wrong move. I'll eat it."
Seeing his grandfather move his chess piece away from the chessboard, Luo Xi frowned and said, "Grandpa, how much do you think Shao Tianze will give Shao Xue?"
"I still have to pretend. There must be at least 50 million yuan."
"That's a lot." Luo Xi did not believe it.
Luo Jiachi raised his head and looked at his grandson with a smile, "Our Luo Family is now the only life-saving straw of the Shao Family. Of course, Shao Tianze will try to show that he values his sister. After all, the relationship between the Luo Family and the Shao Family depends on Shao Xue."
Luo Xi understood his grandfather's meaning and nodded, "I see."
"Come with me to Yuncheng in person tomorrow."
Luo Jiachi said.
"Grandpa, you want to go in person?" Luo Xi was a little surprised.
Luo Xi had thought that his grandfather hated Shao Tianze and would never step into the Shao Family. He did not expect that his grandfather would go to the Shao Family in person because of his marriage with Shao Xue.
Luo Jiachi sighed softly, "I have to go. Otherwise, how can we explain our lack of response to him today?"
Today, he would let the Shao Family worry for a night. Tomorrow, he would take Luo Xi to make amends and propose marriage in person.
Otherwise, he would have called Shao Tianze on time today.
Shao Tianze might think that the Luo Family was a family that could be easily manipulated.
The old man of the Luo Family thought a lot, and he was thoughtful and meticulous in what he did.
Hearing his grandfather's words, Luo Xi said, "I'll do whatever you say. I'll listen to you."
Luo Jiachi nodded, obviously satisfied with his grandson's answer.
