Liu Zhaoming's father attempts to teach him the proper way to socialize and gain favor, contrasting his son's misguided past attempts with financial and transactional approaches. He criticizes Liu Zhaoming's past failures in forming genuine connections with prominent families, attributing them to his superficial methods of spending money and offering favors. The father emphasizes that true influence comes from understanding how to give and when to offer specific favors, cautioning against impulsive actions like offering women, which could backfire due to Mr. Chen's existing relationships.

When your wife finds out, what is your first reaction?

Your first reaction is to tell your wife that she seduced you, thereby putting the blame on her. Then, in order to calm your wife’s anger, you fire that female assistant and send her far away overseas!

Now, do you understand?!"

Liu Zhaoming chuckled bitterly: "That Mr. Chen doesn’t seem like the type to fear his wife."

"Even if he isn’t afraid of his wife, if the person lying next to him resents you, and speaks ill during pillow talk regularly, can you handle it?"

"Then, should I throw money at the problem? How much should I throw?" Liu Zhaoming asked: "Should I throw ten or eight billion at him?"

Liu Jianshan shook his head: "Ten or eight billion, if he can act for us and do something that ensures our safety and bottom line, it would be absolutely worth it.

But if it’s just for everyday appeasement, throwing ten or eight billion is wrong.

If you give someone ten or eight billion just to please them, what will you do when we encounter a major issue and need someone to save us? Fifty billion, a hundred billion?

Wouldn’t that mean handing over all our assets to others?

I’m asking you to please people and use their abilities, not to hand over the Jia Ye to them."

Liu Zhaoming sighed: "Then... I..."

"Fool, think more, don’t act hastily." Liu Jianshan said slowly: "Pleasing someone isn’t that simple. Before you please someone, you must carefully learn about them, understand their preferences, their needs, their temperament, and then cater to their tastes and the tastes of those around them!

You must make not only him but also those around him like you, so that they speak well of you!

Remember, money must be spent, but it must be spent correctly. Not only correctly, but in a way that makes the recipient happy!"

With that, Liu Jianshan waved his hand: "Go and think it over carefully, conduct some investigation, then come up with a plan and tell me."

Liu Zhaoming had been rejected by his father several times and felt a bit helpless, but he wasn’t a fool. After a brief thought, he actively proposed an idea: "Father, I will investigate carefully and prepare a plan for building connections as you said.

But right now, there is a small opportunity that I can act on immediately."

"Oh?" Liu Jianshan laughed: "Tell me."

"That house at the foot of the mountain where he’s currently living. He brought it up himself yesterday. I arranged for him to move in, and Uncle Liu took care of things for a day. He came back and told me that Mr. Chen seems to really like that house, so..."

Liu Jianshan nodded, squinting his eyes and thinking for a moment: "What’s the deal with that house?"

"It’s originally Elder Zhong’s house..."

Liu Jianshan laughed: "That makes sense. It’s all the Mystic Cultivator Expert’s arrangement, and Elder Zhong was capable when he was alive. The arrangement of that house fits Mr. Chen’s tastes."

He glanced at his son: "What’s the current market value of this house?"

"Its market value is between eighty million and one hundred million, but the house has some debt disputes with the bank. If we make a move, we can get it for about fifty million—after all, it’s just at the foot of the mountain, and neither the location nor the area is great."

Liu Jianshan immediately said: "Get the house, but don’t give it to Mr. Chen! Give it to..." He glanced at his son: "Give it to Miss Lu! Isn’t she a Yang Family Member? Since Yang Family invited her to Port City, they must have her identity information. You go to Yang Family to get it, then transfer the property to Miss Lu’s name!"

After saying that, Liu Jianshan looked at his son, who hadn’t yet reacted, and shook his head: "Don’t you understand?

A few tens of millions in assets, what’s it worth? If you give it to Mr. Chen, he might just smile, think that you’re really eager to please him, and have some goodwill towards you.

But giving it to Miss Lu is different!

They’re a couple. You give it to Miss Lu, yet Mr. Chen will still enjoy it and live there. It makes no difference.

Moreover, a girl thrown out by Yang Family surely doesn’t have much of her own assets. You give it to her... Miss Lu seems kind and meek; even if she’s indifferent to fame and fortune, if someone gifts her assets worth tens of millions, she will definitely hold you in good regard.

Gifting Mr. Chen only earns his goodwill!

Gifting Miss Lu makes Mr. Chen happy, and you also gain goodwill from the person beside him!

Same amount of money, but two approaches yield completely different results."

Watching his pondering son, he asked: "Do you understand?"

Something clicked for Liu Zhaoming, suddenly having a stroke of insight: "Father, about investigating Mr. Chen’s preferences, I’ve got an idea."

"Speak!"

"I... can prepare a generous gift, and inquire from Dean Chu Keqing!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Jianshan’s eyes brightened, and he looked at his son with more satisfaction and encouragement.

Liu Zhaoming quickly said: "That Elder Zi clearly has a close relationship with Mr. Chen! Aunt Yun mentioned the other day that Dean Chu Keqing seemed to have some deep sentiments when looking at Mr. Chen.

I’ll visit to ask for guidance and prepare a generous gift. First, it’s to establish good relations with Dean Chu Keqing—I don’t know if she’s Mr. Chen’s confidante, but she’s definitely in his circle. Gaining goodwill from her is never a loss.

At the same time, I’ll state my intent, which is to learn Mr. Chen’s preferences, clearly showing my gratitude and desire to please Mr. Chen. Since Dean Chu Keqing is close and fond of him, seeing someone wanting to please her beloved would naturally make her happy.
