Knowing each other with you [Sword Three]

Maxfield's house is in the other courtyard of Hinaville. Although it is not as professional as the research institute funded by Claude himself, it is also equipped with a training room that is more advanced than the school dormitory.After Xiang Zhi woke up a day later, she couldn't hold back and rushed in.

Although the level of the physical examination report has been improved this time, it was also "modified" by Claude to deal with outsiders.The real level has to wait until he goes to the ability research institute like his game center to get the most accurate data.

But compared to the data, Xiang Zhiyue is eager to experience it for herself, but also a little worried.After all, after sleeping for so long, if you don't persist in physical training for a day, your body's reactions will become dull.

There are three underground floors in the other courtyard, and each floor is a training room, where you can toss as much as you want.

The three basement floors belonged to Claude's level of powerhouses, and it was enough for Xiang Zhi to be on the basement floor.

Walking into the training room, it was brightly lit and well-equipped. Xiang Zhi did a set of stretching exercises to stretch her muscles and bones, and then began to warm up.

The area of ​​this floor alone is equal to the living area of ​​the ground floor. From the design of this other courtyard, we can know how hardworking the owner is.

Alas, only the year of the monkey and the month of the horse can catch up with that windy man.

After long-term training, the body has already formed a memory, and Xiang Zhi can warm up while thinking wildly.

After a thin layer of sweat broke out on her body, she took a short rest.Normally, she would start physical training first at this moment, but due to the doctor's strict prohibition, today she can only skip the physical training and directly enter the ability link.

Moreover, the doctor has repeatedly exhorted and exhorted, it must be "moderate" and "mild".

Standing in the center of the arena, he instantly wore his upper body and held the piano in his hand.Hmm, the speed seems to be much faster?And the sensory ability is solid and abundant, and there is even the illusion that he can bring down Claude with one move.

Xiang Zhi jingled and jingled to the training stakes, but only a few times before the doctor rushed in with beard and eyes, and dragged her all the way back to the room, taking her body temperature and opening her eyelids to look at her eyes After checking for a long time, she was not allowed to enter the training room that day, and then the little old man went out angrily, and did not forget to give her a fierce look when he left the room.

...I haven't done anything yet.

Apparently, her powers and physical fitness didn't improve much. A dry little old man could carry her all the way from the basement floor back to her room.He couldn't wait for the elevator, and when he climbed the stairs, his face didn't blush and he wasn't out of breath. He was simply an excellent candidate for the melatonin advertisement.

Originally, this winter vacation, Xiang Zhi's plan was to participate in the piano exhibition first, stay at Vivienne's house and visit Hinaville by the way, and then make plans.But since he came to Claude's house, he simply refused to leave.

Still the same sentence, too much debt does not weigh you down.

Ivan and McCann seem to have other tasks, and they have plenty of time during the winter vacation, so they can take on more tasks, and it is inconvenient for Xiang Zhi to disturb them.Iris contacted and said that he would come to have an interview with the fat manager for a while, and Xiang Zhi also greeted Claude who was so busy all day long.In the past few days, apart from the housekeeper and the others taking care of the house, Xiang Zhi stayed alone in the courtyard.

Browse the web, do translations, shoot videos, read novels, and bask in the sun.

Apart from not being able to resume training, nothing has changed.

However, after figuring out the doctor's temper, even the training was done with every stitch and every opportunity.

The serious old housekeeper is also used to the doctor chasing Xiang Zhi every day, jumping up and down throughout the other courtyard, including the garden outside.

To be honest, this doctor is not an ordinary person, the little old man who looks dry is actually a wind attribute power user!After Xiang Zhi discovered this, she was no longer keen on training alone. Claude was not there, and neither were Ivan and the others. It was too slow to find someone to practice with, and it was boring and ineffective against the stakes. .

Once she was chased by the doctor and ran all the way, unconsciously using lightness kung fu, and swished out of the window, thinking that she would be able to get rid of the doctor by doing this, but unexpectedly the little old man chased him out by riding the wind, and the speed was still fast. The thief rode so fast that Xiang Zhi almost fell into the fountain in fright.If you can't beat the speed, you can use shadows to confuse the enemy, use the ignorant circle, and use various control skills. In the pursuit of the doctor, Xiang Zhi's skills are getting more and more proficient, just a few shadows in a circle, and the time to escape is getting longer and longer .

Then the little old man would throw the wind blade, swishing and hitting her plum blossom shield, getting sharper and more powerful.It only took about a week from the moment her shield was pierced to the time when most of the wind blades were dissolved like jelly.

Xiang Zhi, who found that she had improved, was even more enthusiastic about it. I am afraid that the little old man has never encountered such a worrying patient.

In the long winter days, wrapped in snow, the other courtyard of Maxfield is surrounded by petals and fallen leaves from time to time.The unique sound of the piano and the humming of the deer add a touch of ancient charm to the other courtyard in the bitter cold wind.

There is one more item in Xiang Zhi's daily life in the other hospital, or Lixia's daily routine, which is to step briskly on all fours, have fun in every corner of the other hospital, and poke around to see what the doctor is doing .

Although Xiaolu Lixia is Xiang Zhi's spiritual product, she seems to have a certain sense of autonomy recently, and she has also learned the little old man's wind blade.

Xiang Zhi was a little jealous.Why doesn't my own deer know how to play the piano, but ran to learn the wind blade with the wind attribute ability?She can't send out the wind blade herself, so why does the deer know how?This deer is going to be fine -0-.

"It seems that you are recovering well." After another day of training, Xiang Zhizheng curled up on the sofa reading a book, and Iris walked in behind the old housekeeper.

"Yo, amigo, long time no see."

"I asked the manager to come over here, and it's almost here." Iris pushed his glasses, looked at the living room, green plants, soft and comfortable cushions, and some DIY knick-knacks, although it is not as simple and elegant as the decoration. There is nothing contrary to the harmony, but it is obviously not a design that a cold big ice cube like Claude would make.

The two chatted for a while, and the fat manager really came.

This time there was no more crying, probably because Claude was not around, so the whole person relaxed a lot.When the housekeeper was reporting, Xiang Zhi, who had been flying around the other courtyard just now, wrapped herself in a blanket for the sake of caution, put some powder on her lips and cheeks, suppressed the blood, and watched the fat manager come in, lightly Sighed, looking weak, pitiful, and helpless.

"Hello, we meet again." Xiang Zhi said to the fat manager weakly, with a forced smile, looking even more haggard.

"Aiyo... Ai, it seems..." The fat manager didn't expect Xiang Zhishang to be healed yet, and originally wanted to take advantage of the absence of the heir of the Maxfield family to soften the little girl's heart, and then made a breakthrough from the little girl.As a result, he became a little soft-hearted.

"Hi, I'm Iris who made an appointment with you. Ms. Xiang hasn't recovered yet, so I'll communicate with you on her behalf." Iris got up and stepped forward, while Xiang Zhi nodded to the fat manager , back to the room with the support of the old housekeeper.

This time, the negotiation between Iris and the fat manager lasted for half an hour. According to Iris, they were still in the stage of mutual testing.The next few days will be the real test.

After secretly listening to the corner, Xiang Zhi felt that Iris's negotiation could even be included in the classic case of the textbook.

When Xiang Zhi was in university, she sat in on the negotiation class of the business school next door, and knew a few concepts, such as BATNA, superficially.

The so-called BATNA is a basic concept of all negotiations, called Best Alternative to a Negotiated Agreement, which translates into Chinese as "the best alternative".This concept is really well applied here in Iris, and at the same time, Xiang Zhi finally understands why her personal financial expert said that it will take 100 years for her to want Guqin.

Iris’s so-called guqin can only be bought in 100 years, which means that the existing guqin can’t be bought even if you have money.

Not to mention that his understanding of Guqin and Xiang Zhi's needs are wrong, but it is a certainty that the existing Qin will not be obtained from Manager Fatty and the Ancient Oriental Culture Research Center he represents.Even though the video of Xiang Zhi's performance has aroused heated discussions, it is still popular in the ancient fashion circle, with a high click-through rate, and the majority of netizens are clamoring for it, but the piano that has survived thousands of years ago is an ancient cultural relic, and no girl is allowed to hold it. The truth of the medium.

However, Xiang Zhi's goal was not those ancient cultural relics, and he would feel hot if he got them.All she wanted was a channel to get Qin.It’s not that it’s been called Guqin for a long time. Iris also makes such low-level mistakes. It seems that everyone knows too little about Guqin.

Talked to Iris again, and he blushed for three seconds, cleared his throat in embarrassment, and threw himself into the real fight again.The original negotiations obviously collapsed. The other party would never sell the guqin, and our side would never speak for a cultural center that did not understand culture. However, the result was obvious, and only after the negotiations collapsed would they make progress.

The best alternative, BATNA, was proposed by Roger Fisher and William Urey in 1981, and Xiang Zhi's world now has a similar concept.This BATNA refers to the best conditions that can be obtained if the current negotiation breaks down, that is, after the negotiation breaks down, you turn around and find someone else to cooperate with.The Xiao family behind the Ancient Culture Exchange Center can turn a blind eye to such a marketing manager who is full of money and power, which means that their behavior style will not be too bad.Although cultural exchanges have always been hosted by them, the Xiao family is not the only one in the Gufeng circle. It is just because they are able to get by in daily life, and everyone has no time to care about it. But this time is different, let’s not talk about how many people they offended at the same time. For the aristocratic clan, the blasphemy of culture alone is enough for them to lose their foothold.

If a person who knows how to play the piano is imprisoned privately, he can be sued jointly, not to mention that she is still an underage girl, and she is also a person with supernatural powers.

Recently, Claude has been busy dealing with this matter. The Internet was handed over to Ivan, causing public opinion pressure, and he continued to exert pressure on behalf of the Maxfield family, with the assistance of the Yu family, and the Cleo family followed suit. In the eyes of the public, Xiang Zhi, the victim, was illegally detained by the other party for no reason, and the Xiao family brazenly came to raise conditions, constantly Harassment, small actions, for a while, the Xiao family became the target of public criticism.

After dozens of days of hard work, the result was very simple, and Xiang Zhi received a large amount of compensation.If you can't get the piano, you can still get a lot of money.

Only when you have money can you buy a violin, and now that Xiang Zhi has made a roll call, the chances of finding someone who can make violins are even greater.

There are still no missions this winter vacation, but it can be considered rewarding.Before leaving Xinaweier, Xiang Zhi bought a lot of gifts with her small treasury specially set up for her friends, including Claude's hilarious twisted fart. Butt bag hanging, Ivan's limited water Qin stone necklace, McCann's music The slow rocking and rolling tea set, Mary's Bray expert limited gift bag, Iris's anti-fogging lens, and some other cute gadgets, go back and distribute to female friends.Not only did he buy a lot of gifts for the friends he knew, but when he said goodbye to Vivienne, he negotiated the follow-up work and received a digital restaurant's supreme VIP card.

The people in the other courtyard got along for almost the whole winter vacation, and they also had feelings.The other courtyard like the freezer has never been so lively. Xiang Zhi left a lot of gadgets for the old housekeeper and the others, and specially prepared a scraping tablet made from big snake scales for the little old man, which is said to relax the muscles The blood circulation effect is good.Although Xiang Zhi secretly thought that the little old man was already lively enough, so he didn't need to stretch his muscles anymore (...).

The second semester at Clemenza is about to start.
