My mother-in-law is remarrying and wants my family's assets as dowry. Die!

Xiao Wu nodded: "Big brother, I know what I should do. I'll contact that old guy Ding Lu now and give him a hint so he can create an opportunity to take me to see his daughter."

The older man laughed again: "My little brother, you still haven't fully grasped the essence of what your brother taught you. Why did you give him any hints? Don't give him any hints at all! You can call him, but don't mention his daughter at all. Let him bring it up himself and create an opportunity for you to meet his daughter."

Xiao Wu hesitated for a moment: "Brother, if that old guy can't grasp the essence of our teachings and doesn't even dare to think in this direction, then we can only wait in vain, which will waste a lot of time, and I don't want to waste my energy on this matter."

The older man smiled confidently: "My little brother, you have a lot to learn. Watch how I make that old bastard Ding Lu want to grovel before you! I won't even try to connect you with her daughter; that old guy will connect you with her daughter on his own, following my instructions. Now I'll demonstrate it to you, so learn carefully."

Xiao Wu watched with great anticipation as his older brother took out his phone.

"Young Master Zhang, hello!" The older man dialed Ding Lu's number, and before long, Ding Lu had even answered, his voice filled with obsequiousness: "What can I do for you, Young Master? Just tell me, and I will make sure you are satisfied and will not disappoint you!"

Young Master Zhang sounded rather dejected: "Mr. Ding, don't be so polite. I called you just to ask how your communication with your daughter is going, and whether the conditions for cooperation with us are ripe. I don't want any problems to arise with your daughter; that wouldn't be good news for you, Mr. Ding!"

Ding Lu immediately assured him firmly, "Young Master, rest assured, I will arrange everything perfectly for my daughter. There will be absolutely no problems. Moreover, my daughter is very outstanding and will definitely follow my hints and arrangements without going against my wishes. So, the conditions for our cooperation are basically ripe. I just don't know what arrangements you will make next, Young Master. I've been waiting for your instructions!"

Young Master Zhang gave a light "hmm": "In that case, let's meet and discuss, or rather, finalize the detailed plan for the cooperation. But you'll have to wait a little longer, I have some small matters to attend to! I'll contact you, President Ding, after I've taken care of these."

Ding Lu asked tentatively, "I wonder what trouble you've encountered, Young Master? I'm a local, after all, and perhaps I can help you. I have many connections and resources here. Of course, if it's inconvenient for you to say, then forget it, just pretend I didn't ask!"

Young Master Zhang gave an "oh," and then said casually, "I thank you for your kindness, Mr. Ding. It's nothing really, just some personal matters. You met my younger brother last time; he's having some relationship problems, and it's really giving me a headache. The problem is, he's so stubborn; no matter how I try to persuade him, he won't listen. But I can't ignore the task my elders gave me. It's a real headache!"

Ding Lu's tone became even more obsequious: "Young Master, there's no need to be too anxious. It's perfectly normal for young people to encounter relationship problems. Just give them some guidance. May I ask what relationship problems you're facing, Fifth Young Master? Would you like me to offer some advice? After all, I'm older, and I might have more experience in this area. I may not be able to help you, Young Master, but I can certainly offer some suggestions!"

Young Master Zhang sighed softly, "I don't know what's wrong with my younger brother. He's very resistant to the blind dates arranged by the family, and he's also very resistant to actively approaching young women. To be honest, the elders in the family are worried that my brother might have some kind of problem with his orientation, but from what I've observed, there shouldn't be any problem!"

"I'm also a bit baffled by my little brother. I don't know how to solve this. Is this really the current social trend? Is it that people admire single life, reject the opposite sex, and are even less willing to get married and have children? But our Zhang family isn't an ordinary family. If he wants to do this, the family will absolutely not allow it!"

Ding Lu was overjoyed, almost unable to contain his excitement: "Young Master, perhaps Fifth Young Master just hasn't met a girl he likes yet. I'll shamelessly give you a suggestion: why not have Fifth Young Master come to my house as a guest? My daughter is also from a wealthy family, though of course not as powerful as Young Master's. She's still a top-notch heiress, excellent in looks, figure, and education. Maybe Fifth Young Master and my daughter will hit it off, and Young Master's problem will be solved!"

When Young Master Zhang was talking to Ding Lu, he used speakerphone, so Zhang Xiaowu heard everything clearly.

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly. His elder brother was indeed more skilled in this area and handled things more smoothly. He achieved his goal quietly and subtly, making Ding Lu take the initiative to lick his boots. He figured that the female sea king would also take the initiative to lick his boots after seeing him.

Young Master Zhang glanced smugly at his fifth brother before saying, "President Ding, thank you for your kindness. I am very grateful for your arrangement, but as you know, our family has always been very serious about marriage, and we place great importance on matching social status and family background!"

"It's not that I look down on your Dingfeng Group, but rather that the gap between us is simply too great. I'm not confident that your daughter can pass my family's test, so I need to seriously consider Mr. Ding's suggestion. Please don't mind my directness, Mr. Ding!"

Ding Lu hurriedly said, "I understand. Our Ding family is indeed no match for your family, so I will follow your arrangements. I will absolutely not cause any trouble for you or the Fifth Young Master, and my daughter will not bother you either. Don't worry."

"But please rest assured, young master, if you need me to make arrangements, just make a phone call and I can arrange it anytime! But how about this, let's invite the fifth young master and the eldest young master to my house for a meal first, so they can meet my daughter. I don't know if that's a good idea, but if the fifth young master is interested after the meeting, then we can proceed with the arrangements. If he's not interested, then there's no need to bother the elders of the family."

Young Master Zhang thought for a moment and replied, "President Ding's suggestion is indeed good, but I'm not sure if my little brother is willing. I'll see if I can persuade him. If I can, I'll inform President Ding! To be honest, I also hope that my little brother can develop feelings for your daughter, which would also solve one of my tasks!"
