Chapter 260: Exhausted
"This He family was just a small merchant in Nianzhou ten years ago."
"It was me who brought you up little by little, and brought you to the capital step by step, and helped you gain a firm foothold here."
"You are jealous of the family business that I have built, and you are using the rules to pressure us mother and daughter."
"Then are you sure you can protect this house after we leave?"
Several people looked hesitant, but finally made a decision: "Old family, you were able to hold on before because Mo Sheng was the eldest grandson of the eldest house, but now she is just a girl."
"So from now on, it will be hard for you to be as smooth as before."
"You should go to the temple to practice meditation. You've been busy for ten years, so give yourself a break."
Well said!
Why don't you get angry?
They retreat from the world because of their busy lives, or they retreat from the world after selling their property and becoming wealthy and enjoying themselves.
What these people said clearly was that they took the lion's share and only gave some monthly allowance to the mother and daughter.
What if they were both fools?
She was dissatisfied and said, "Dai Yue can set up female households. Now the people are more open-minded. Not only are there women in the officialdom, but there are even more women working as businessmen."
"Isn't it that the recently declining Tan family has a female head?"
"You old bastards, stop looking for high-sounding excuses. It's obvious that you want to swallow up the family business that my grandparents have worked so hard for!"
"Your desire to eat up the entire family is clearly written on your face. Do you think you can cover up your shameless behavior by saying nice things?"
"dream!"
The people in the room were scolded until their faces turned pale, but they still pretended to be deaf and dumb: "You kid, why are you so ignorant?"
"Girls are so willful and impulsive."
"It's also for your own good to let you go to practice."
"That's it, no need to discuss it further."
Having firmly decided on the future of the orphans and widows, they prepared to leave and wait for the windfall to fall on their heads.
Several people looked at each other and discussed how to divide the money.
At this time, a servant came running over, "Madam, someone is coming from the East Palace!"
The female official came to invite Madam He: "Your Highness, please invite Madam He to the East Palace for a chat."
The elder of the clan asked tentatively, "Madam, she is no longer the head of our family."
"If the prince is interested in the He family, he should have negotiated with someone else. Now that the new head of the family has not been chosen, I can say a few words."
Unexpectedly, the maid just glanced at him and said, "Your Highness is interested in Madam He, not the He family."
"It doesn't matter who is the head of the family."
"Madam He, please follow me to the East Palace."
Madam He followed the female official away, leaving He Mosheng standing there, smiling happily.
She yawned, turned around and said, "Everyone, I'm done with you. I still have to pack my luggage and go to practice."
With just one sentence, several people who wanted to stay were stopped.
Several people gathered together and said angrily, "Didn't she go to the last Rain Tower banquet?"
Another person said: "We are going, but who knows if our He family can really be selected!"
"She was chosen, not the He family."
"The prince would not look down upon our small fortune."
"..."
After a moment of silence, one person spoke up: "What should we do? We have offended someone so much, should we invite him back?"
"Of course we have to invite him back. Otherwise, it would be much easier to follow the prince and make a fortune, just like the Tan family did before."
"They dumped us without leaving us a single drop of soup."
Mrs. He has a clear understanding of her own position: she is a tool used by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to make money, and she has no objection to any of the Crown Prince's requests.
Bei Jingchu felt embarrassed for making the lion ask for too much.
She also guessed that this Mrs. He might be playing psychological tactics with her, using a friendly and obedient attitude to make her like her more.
But you shouldn't hit someone who's smiling. Even if you know that someone is doing it on purpose, it's hard to speak harshly to them.
After all, he is really obedient.
Then the subsequent negotiations went smoothly.
Mrs. He returned home with full hope for the future, only to find that the old guys with bad moods had not left yet.
The mood is no longer beautiful in an instant.
"My dear elders, it's almost dark. Why are you still staying in my humble abode? Do you want to eat for free?"
She deliberately responded, "They are going to take away our property, do you still want to suck up our meal money before leaving?"
"Even leeches can't suck this hard, right?"
Those who can make it in the business world are all good at speaking.
He can praise people to the sky and make them feel proud, and he is even better at speaking.
However, those who were scolded did not dare to act as arrogantly as they did early in the morning.
Even though he was choked, he still smiled and said, "The old man really married a good wife. Marrying a virtuous wife brings blessings to three generations."
"Look, I've boarded the prince's boat."
"Our He family is going to rise to the top because of you. Old family, you are a great contributor to the He family!"
"Mo Sheng also taught me well. This is all thanks to you as a mother!"
Mrs. He was now very confident. She just snorted coldly: "The magic tricks are not as fast as your changing faces. Isn't it profitable now?"
"Do you really think that people's hearts will not be chilled, and that the things you said and did can be easily forgotten?"
"You don't have to worry about us mother and daughter. Just think of us as going to the Taoist temple to practice meditation."
"Isn't it a good deal that you don't even have to pay the monthly allowance?"
"Let's divide the He family's assets."
"Let's see if you can continue to run the business well after we, mother and daughter, are gone."
Several people were kicked out.
Outside the door, a person said in a hateful voice: "I don't believe that two women can do it. If we take over, we will only be better than them."
"She has been a hindrance for the past ten years. If we had been in charge earlier, maybe the He family would have been able to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Imperial Merchants!"
As a result, not long after, the He family collapsed completely.
They realized that doing business is not that easy.
The elders who had originally united to wipe out the family accused each other: "It's all your fault. You said that these two weak women were easy to bully and made us swallow up the property. Look. Is this money easy to earn?"
The accused person refused to accept the accusation: "If you don't have any evil thoughts, I'm just saying this."
"If you hadn't instigated me, I wouldn't have taken any action even if I wanted to!"
"..."
This group of people were shirking responsibility and arguing endlessly, but Mrs. He and He Mosheng had long been out of their reach and they couldn't even see them.
