Chapter 540 A Bunch of Bachelors
Who is Lin Mo?
She could see the hesitation in He Minhao's eyes at a glance.
It seems that even with He Minhao's mediation, it is impossible for him to cooperate with the He family.
Although He Minhao was given the title of young master, it was not his turn to make decisions.
He can't make the decision, so naturally there is no possibility of cooperation.
Lin Mo then smiled and said, "Young Master He, you can take this as a joke."
After saying that, he stopped talking and picked up the teacup and slowly drank the tea.
After Lin Mo said this, He Minhao couldn't sit still anymore.
Uncle He’s words and Jiang Wenhao’s words swirled in his mind.
But the huge benefits in front of him were tempting him.
After a while, He Minhao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Xu Shaofu saved me and was very kind to me. Besides, she is a good person, so it is better not to hide some things from me.
Otherwise, let alone doing business, you might not even be able to make friends.
Thinking of this, He Minhao's expression became serious.
He glanced around and said with a serious face, "Mrs. Xu, can you please move aside and talk?"
Lin Mo glanced at Liu Ying who was still feeding Xu Ziyue and nodded:
"Let's talk in the study."
When we arrived at the study, hot tea was served.
He Minhao no longer hid his thoughts. When he looked at Lin Mo, a wry smile appeared on his face:
"Mrs. Xu, to be honest, although I am the young master, it is not my turn to have the final say on matters.
I want to cooperate with Madam Xu Shao. Not to mention anything else, just for the freshness of this new variety, I will definitely make a lot of money by cooperating with Madam Xu Shao.
If it were this morning, I would have tried my best to convince Uncle He to cooperate with you. But now I am sure that no matter what I say, Uncle He will not agree.
Having said that, He Minhao fell silent.
Lin Mo didn't try to urge him, but drank her tea slowly.
He Minhao thought about it for a while before continuing:
“To be honest, my He family and Mr. Jiang Wenhao are old acquaintances, and he and my father have a deep friendship.
I met Mr. Jiang at the inn today, and he advised me to leave here as soon as possible and not to do business with you."
Speaking of this, He Minhao smiled bitterly:
“If it weren’t for him, I would be confident that I could convince Uncle He.
But once he opened his mouth, Uncle He would never agree to cooperate with the Xu family."
Who would believe it if I told others? He is the young master, but he can't make the decision. It's pitiful to think about it.
He did not hide these things from Lin Mo.
This is Lin Mo's territory, there's no way she doesn't know about it.
If I tell half of it and hide the other half, I'm afraid she will look down on me.
"Are you done?" Lin Mo looked up at him.
He Minhao nodded subconsciously, but then looked at her in surprise. Why didn't she look shocked at all?
After a while, He Minhao said cautiously:
"Mrs. Xu, you're not angry?"
Lin Mo laughed, "Why should I be angry?
The deal may not be done, but the friendship remains, right?
Besides, you also know that this is a profitable business. If your He family doesn't cooperate with me, it will be your family's loss, not mine."
As he spoke, Lin Mo stretched lazily, "Why, do you think that my Xu family has only your He family as an alternative?"
Lin Mo shook her head, “He Minhao, in fact, your He family is here and mine is not that important.
So you don’t have to feel sorry or anything, there’s no need.”
He Minhao's face was full of irritation. He shook his head and smiled bitterly:
“I don’t think so.
I originally chose to come to Mocheng because they told me you wanted to develop this place, and I thought since we're friends, I came to see if I could help you."
It's just that something unexpected happened, and this unexpected thing was beyond his control.
Moreover, he overestimated himself and underestimated the capabilities of the Xu family.
They don't need their help at all.
Lin Mo shook his head, "Master He, I accept your kindness. Business is not about kindness but about justice.
I treat Young Master He as a friend, and when a friend comes, I will naturally entertain him well."
…
After sending He Minhao away, Lin Mo continued to sit in the study.
Xu Pinggui came back after sending the people out.
"Madam, are we really not going to cooperate with the He family?" Xu Pinggui frowned.
"The He family runs the largest horse caravan in this area. If we cooperate with them, it will be beneficial to us."
"The He family isn't the only one we can cooperate with." Lin Mo shook his head and looked up.
"The He family isn't clean either. Their business is closely tied to the Song family's. There's no need for us to get involved with them.
The He family does have the largest caravan in this area now, but it will soon no longer be the only one in power."
Ever since she learned that the He family and the Song family had frequent private dealings, she had no intention of cooperating with the He family.
After all, they want to deal with the Song family. If they cooperate with the He family, the He family might turn around and bite them back one day.
She wasn't stupid enough to fatten up her enemies and use them against her.
Xu Pinggui was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Then has the young lady contacted any partners for cooperation?"
If not, they need to prepare in advance.
Otherwise, all their previous preparations would be in vain.
"Yeah." Lin Mo's lips curled slightly:
"The person will arrive tomorrow, and you will know then."
Since the He family has a cooperation with the Song family, even if the He family lowers the conditions for cooperation, he will not cooperate with him.
The He family originally had a horse caravan, and they were very familiar with the routes in this area. Cooperating with the He family would save him a lot of trouble.
But unfortunately, the He family and the Song family have cooperation.
As for the conflict between my side and the Song family, sooner or later I will come into conflict with the Song family.
Prince Anping, Old Xu's father, ended up being beheaded, but the Song family secretly contributed a lot to his death.
Some accounts are not settled, it’s just that the time has not come yet. We will settle them together when the time comes.
Lin Mo collected his thoughts and looked at Xu Pinggui:
"Has Huangfu Cheng left?"
Xu Pinggui nodded, "Uncle Peng has been following him. He didn't have a chance, so he left."
Lin Mo chuckled and nodded:
"If he doesn't come here, don't worry about him."
"Aren't you going to send someone to keep an eye on it?" Xu Pinggui frowned.
Huangfu Cheng is the head of Baixin Pavilion and a dangerous person. He is afraid that he will do something harmful to Yuancheng.
Lin Mo looked at Xu Pinggui, "Do you have someone you like?"
ah?
Xu Pinggui was stunned. They were talking about Huangfu Cheng, a dangerous person, so how did they bring him into the picture?
"I can tell at a glance that you don't have anyone you like." Lin Mo shook his head sympathetically.
"You'll understand when you find someone you like."
There is a saying that goes "Love the house and love the dog."
Unless you don't want to get married with her in this life, you won't dare touch anything that the person you like cares about, for fear of breaking it and making them unhappy.
Seeing that Xu Pinggui was still puzzled, Lin Mo looked at him earnestly:
"Pinggui, our life is relatively stable now. If you have someone you like, you can ask for marriage. Then Old Xu and I will officiate your wedding.
Tell this to Xu Qing, Xu Ping'an, and the others. If any of you want to get married, we will officiate the wedding and provide you with houses and land, so that your wives and children can live without worries."
They followed me and Lao Xu through thick and thin, and it was worth it.
Xu Pinggui, “…”
marriage?
How did the young lady get the idea that he wanted to get married?
He shook his head, "Young Madam, I don't plan to get married in this lifetime.
When Uncle Peng gets old and retires, I will be the housekeeper for the Young Master and Young Madam."
After he had thought it through, he decided to just follow the young master and young mistress and do things for them.
When I am gone one day, the master and the young lady will definitely give me a grand funeral.
When Lin Mo heard this, he immediately frowned in disgust:
“How can this be possible?
You are all single men, you'd better find yourself a wife as soon as possible.
If you don't want to find it yourself, I'll ask Old Xu to arrange it for you when he comes back. Do you understand?"
…
Looking at the locked study door, Xu Pinggui was stunned.
Was he kicked out?
Why is the young lady's temperament so strange recently?
Xu Pinggui shook his head, unable to understand.
He shook his head, turned and walked outside.
Get married?
People like them who live from today to tomorrow, why would they get married?
But if you want to get married...
Xu Pinggui thought of the black lotus and thought that marrying her would be a good idea.
Next second.
Bang!
He slapped himself, beast!
What are you thinking about!
The Black Lotus is younger than the eldest lady, and I am already old, yet I actually want this!
Beast!
Xu Pinggui left in a hurry.
At this time, outside the inn in Yuancheng, Huangfu Cheng leaned against the gate, gazing at the bright moon in the sky.
I don’t know how long it took, but He Minhao came back.
"Master Huangfu," He Minhao nodded at him and prepared to go back to rest.
Huangfu Cheng slowly stood up straight and turned to look at him:
"Don't covet what doesn't belong to you, or you'll lose your life."
The coldness in the other person's eyes made He Minhao shudder.
He looked at the other person's leaving figure with a confused look on his face.
What are you dreaming of?
…
The next day.
After having breakfast, He Minhao prepared to go out and take a closer look at Yuancheng.
But he didn't expect that as soon as he went out, Uncle He followed him.
He just frowned and said nothing.
After returning last night, he tried to communicate with Uncle He, but was still rejected by Uncle He.
If the deal doesn't go through, there's no point in staying here.
So he planned to take a walk around here and then leave tomorrow.
Even if I continue to live there, Mrs. Xu won't say anything.
But he was afraid.
Uncle He came with bad intentions, and he didn't know what he was going to do. He was afraid that Uncle He would bring trouble to Madam Xu Shao, which was something he didn't want to see.
But as he looked around more carefully, he regretted more and more his decision to give up cooperation with the Xu family.
Within a year, the Xu family's place will probably become a very important commercial gathering place.
If the He family cooperates with the Xu family and relies on the Xu family, perhaps their strength can be further improved.
He Minhao really doesn't want to give up such a good opportunity to make money.
He turned his head to look at Uncle He who was following him, "Uncle He..."
"Young Master, you don't need to say anything."
As soon as he opened his mouth, Uncle He interrupted him.
Uncle He said seriously, "Young Master, you should know how to make choices.
The Xu family has huge business opportunities. If it weren't for Lord Jiang, I wouldn't say no to this business and would just let the young master make the decision.
But Master Jiang's words should be taken into consideration."
Uncle He frowned. The young master was still not very capable and was thinking too simply.
He Minhao didn't say anything else. He saw the disappointment in Uncle He's eyes again.
He was a little indignant, but helpless.
He Minhao turned around and continued walking forward. He saw Lin Mo in front of him and he ran after her.
"Mrs. Xu!"
