Chapter 455 Prince Huai is Here
"President Wan, your proposal has not been recognized by everyone..."
At this moment, Youzhou's largest cloth merchant suddenly shouted, "I agree!"
"agree!"
The sound of approval overwhelmed the sound of opposition.
Master Wan smiled and said to Master Su, "I'm afraid the outcome is going to change!"
Master Su's expression changed drastically: "Our Chamber of Commerce has never had a woman!"
"It's not too late now!" Zhu Mingqing spoke at the right time.
Master Su glanced at her with disdain: "Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to this old man!"
Hearing this, Luo Tingshan's face immediately turned cold. Just as he was about to speak, Zhu Mingqing held his shoulders.
He frowned in disapproval.
Zhu Mingqing said softly, "I'll do it!"
Mr. Su has always looked down on women doing business, and now she wants to be on equal footing with him. He has been holding a grudge in his heart for a long time, and now he finally lets it out.
"Master Su is highly respected, but how could he allow his own children and grandchildren to deceive him? Could it be that you also instructed Lieutenant General Su to hide the grain?" Zhu Mingqing said calmly, "For their own selfish interests, they sought the relief grain that the prince provided to the people. If this is the Su family, then I am truly unworthy of speaking to Master Su!"
"How outrageous! What nonsense!" Master Su was puzzled, but he would not tolerate anyone slandering the Su family: "Madam Ming, please don't say anything careless. My son is loyal to the prince..."
An inappropriate sneer was heard.
Zhu Mingqing covered his mouth: "So, Master Su doesn't know yet!"
That is, Prince Huai wanted to take the grain hidden by Deputy General Su into his own pocket!
"What do you want to say?" Mr. Su's face was gloomy.
Zhu Mingqing shook his head: "Nothing, in that case, it's better for Master Su to check it himself!"
Others may not know, but Mr. Wan knows what Madam Ming said, and he also guessed Prince Huai's intention.
He interrupted, "Alright, let's not talk about anything else today. Let's just talk about the position of Vice President. I've already decided that Madam Ming will take the position. Everyone, raise your hands and vote. Those who agree, raise your hands!"
As soon as he finished speaking, eight of the thirteen people present raised their hands!
The remaining five people are all Master Su’s men!
"You!" Master Su looked at the person who raised his hand in disbelief. "The position of vice president is so important. How could you let a woman you only met once take it? Aren't you afraid of the prince's blame?"
Master Wan stood up and said, "Since more than half of the people agree, then this matter..."
"No!" Master Su retorted loudly, thinking in his heart that the prince only asked him to keep an eye on the Ming family and prevent them from taking too much of the profits, but now, he was actually vying for the position of vice president.
"Vice President, this is everyone's opinion. Even if you disagree, it won't make any difference!" Master Wan said in a serious tone, "This matter is settled!"
Of course, Mr. Su refuted it with all his might, but the other party was outnumbered and powerful.
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, the servant rushed in.
"My Lords, the Prince has arrived and will soon be entering the garden!"
Mr. Su's face lit up with joy.
Master Wan frowned slightly. Prince Huai had never attended the Chamber of Commerce, so why did he come this time?
The other merchants in the house also quickly stood up and walked out.
No one noticed as Zhu Mingqing pushed Luo Tingshan back to the room.
"Mingqing!"
Luo Tingshan grabbed her arm and said, "Prince Huai has a bad temper, is suspicious, and is full of ambition. You should be careful!"
Zhu Mingqing nodded slightly, and when she reached the front hall, Prince Huai just entered the room.
When he looked up, he saw the woman opposite him, and his face darkened again when he thought of the rejection he had received before.
Zhu Mingqing's expression remained unchanged as he returned to his seat.
"This is my first time attending the Youzhou Chamber of Commerce. I heard that everyone had a great time discussing things. Why don't you tell me about it and let me have some advice?" Prince Huai sat in the first seat, looking at the people below who dared not say a word, and his interest was suddenly piqued again.
Master Su immediately spoke: "Your Highness, you don't know that President Wan actually..."
After Master Su finished speaking, the room fell silent again.
"Is this really true?" Prince Huai pretended to know nothing and frowned. "Being the vice president of a state is not easy. President Wan, you are taking a risk!"
As soon as Prince Huai spoke, everyone immediately changed their attitude.
"Your Majesty is right!"
"Indeed, this is inappropriate!"
Master Wan pursed his lips, stood up and saluted. "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you. Madam Ming is the Vice President, and it was I who strongly recommended her. Your Highness, why don't you listen to my opinion?"
Prince Huai raised his hand to interrupt and looked at Madam Ming: "Madam Ming, don't you have anything to say?"
Zhu Mingqing raised her eyes, and the look she gave her was calm, like a sea hiding countless dangers, making people not want to look at her.
The ease on Prince Huai's face gradually disappeared, and his eyes stared at the other person motionlessly.
If it happened to anyone else, they would have been scared to their knees and begged for mercy.
But this Mrs. Ming didn't dodge at all.
"I greet you, Your Highness!" Zhu Mingqing said politely. "I believe Master Wan has a keen eye, so I cannot betray his trust!"
Prince Huai's eyes gradually became sharper. "Oh? Madam Ming is quite courageous, but I wonder if her abilities can keep up with her courage!"
Zhu Mingqing raised the corner of his mouth: "Your Highness, please give it a try!"
"In that case..." Prince Huai sneered and looked around: "If Madam Zhu can convince everyone present to agree, then I can show some leniency!"
"Your Highness..." Master Wan wanted to dissuade him, but Master Su and the others regarded Madam Ming as their enemy, so how could they agree?
But Prince Huai gave him a look that was full of warning!
"I agree!" Zhu Mingqing raised the corners of his mouth.
As soon as he finished speaking, a smile appeared on Mr. Su's face.
Expecting him to agree? No way!
At the end of the day, they parted on bad terms.
After most of the people had left, Master Wan shook his head and sighed, "Madam Ming, Old Su and the others won't agree!"
Zhu Mingqing had no intention of starting with those people, not to mention that she didn't understand them either.
"Then the Madam agreed!" Master Wan was worried. "Why did the prince come here when all was well?"
Zhu Mingqing said, "Boss Xu seemed to be out for a while, long enough for him to order his servants to go into the city!"
But it was too late to say anything now.
Master Wan was very upset. If Master Su really succeeded, wouldn't Youzhou's business decline further and further in the future?
no!
He immediately stood up and said, "I'll go and ask the prince for mercy!"
"Master Wan, I promised that I would take care of it. Just wait for the good news!"
If she sets her eyes on something, she must get it no matter how much it costs.
By the afternoon, Zhu Mingqing had not taken any action yet, so Prince Huai came to visit him directly.
At this time, Luo Tingshan was also in the room, and there was a constant knock on the door outside.
"I'll take you to the next room!" Zhu Mingqing stood up and said.
Luo Tingshan pressed his arm on the wheelchair and said, "I'm worried about you being the only one in the room! Go over there!"
He pointed behind the screen.
Zhu Mingqing frowned: "He will find you."
Luo Tingshan said helplessly: "Do you think I can hide forever?"
