Chapter 647: No Business Without Fraud
Lin Mo yawned and looked very sleepy.
Her appearance made Li Shengting, who was drinking tea opposite her, speechless.
He put down the teacup, "You don't like me?
Or is it just a case of demolishing the bridge after crossing it?
You're dismantling this bridge so quickly, be careful or your boat might capsize."
Humph, the dust hasn’t settled yet, be careful and sail away with your own boat.
Lin Mo reached out and closed her mouth, forcing back the tears that were flowing to the corners of her eyes due to sleepiness.
He shook his head in grievance, "Seventh Prince, your words are hurtful. I may not intend to burn bridges.
only……"
Lin Mo glanced outside and looked at him with a sad face, "Do you know what time it is now?
I was called up at this time to entertain you. Am I not sleepy?
Don't I need sleep?
Tell me, is there anything that can’t be discussed tomorrow?
If you want your son to sleep with you, can't you just ask and have someone bring the child out to you?
Do you know that disturbing my sleep now is something that is outrageous to everyone?
Do you know how hard it is for me to get a good night’s sleep now?”
Looking at Lin Mo who was chattering across from him, Li Shengting already regretted coming to see her at this time.
To be honest, isn’t it nice to sleep with your son in your arms?
Why did he come here to listen to a complaining woman?
Not worth it.
After Lin Mo vented her anger, she took the hot water from Qinglian and drank a sip. Then she looked at Li Shengting, who was surrounded by the fragrance of tea, with satisfaction:
"Okay, Seventh Prince, tell me what you want. Why are you so anxious to see me so late at night?"
I glanced at the teacup next to him, oh yeah, strong tea.
I can't sleep well in the second half of the night, and you don't want to sleep either.
Lin Mo's face was full of ill intentions.
After drinking a cup of strong tea, even the most tired cow will become energetic.
She turned her head and looked at Qinglian with a smile, motioning her to add tea to the Seventh Prince.
She is very hospitable!
For some reason, Li Shengting suddenly had a creepy feeling as if someone was staring at him.
This woman seemed to be plotting against him, but he had no evidence.
Li Shengting suddenly wanted to walk away.
But I still held back. We had already met now, so I could talk about it and there was no need to come again tomorrow.
Seeing that she didn't seem to care at all, Li Shengting couldn't help but complain, "The battle outside is going on fiercely, aren't you worried that they will fail?"
He couldn't understand why she was still sleeping so soundly.
In this situation, she should be very anxious, right?
"Failure?" Lin Mo raised an eyebrow, "Will it happen?
I tell you, absolutely not.
Song Yi will die tonight!"
When saying this, Lin Mo's face was gloomy.
Seeing Li Shengting's suspicious look, Lin Mo did not explain, but instead asked him why he came in person.
After all, I didn't receive any news that he was coming, but he suddenly appeared in front of me.
To be honest, she was really scared when she saw him.
Just as Lin Mo was about to speak, Xu Pinggui rushed in with a bloody look on his face. "Young Madam Song Yi is dead. Song Zhiyuan chopped off his head with a single blow."
Thinking of the scene where Song Yi's head was chopped off, Xu Pinggui's eyes were filled with relief. It was a pity that the iron sand escaped.
If the iron sand runs away, it will become a disaster sooner or later.
Lin Mo turned his head and looked at Li Shengting, raising an eyebrow, "Seventh Prince, I didn't expect you to be slapped in the face so quickly.
I just want to ask you gently, does it hurt?
fail?
Is this called failure?
Shouldn't it be a resounding victory?"
Seeing her smug look, Li Shengting rolled his eyes.
The face of a villain who has succeeded.
He coughed lightly and said seriously, "Since you have won a great victory, shouldn't we talk about what to do next?"
"Talk about things. Why don't you wait for Old Xu to come back and talk to him? Men are responsible for external affairs and women are responsible for internal affairs. It would be more appropriate for you to talk to him." Lin Mo suggested considerately.
Who knows what he will come up with? Let Old Xu handle this matter when he comes back.
"Wrong." Li Shengting shook his head, "It's most appropriate to talk to you. He won't have any objections if you agree.
But if you talk to him, he'll come back and ask for your opinion, so there's no need to waste time."
Lin Mo was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, "You really see things clearly."
Then the smile on his face faded:
"Then please tell me directly, Seventh Prince, what do you want to discuss with me?"
"Twenty years of peace." The seventh prince said this in a calm voice.
Lin Mo's pupils shrank slightly.
Twenty years is not a short time.
The most important thing is that Beiling is now stronger than Daye, and they are willing to give up the opportunity to annex Daye.
Twenty years is very important.
It can change many things, such as great achievements!
Lin Mo suppressed his emotions and said with a serious face, "What do you want?"
The Seventh Prince suddenly brought this up, it was definitely not for no reason, he must have thought it over carefully.
"Let's not talk about this for now." The Seventh Prince shook his head.
“For these twenty years, I signed a contract with your Xu family, not a big undertaking.
If this Mo City no longer belongs to your Xu family, this treaty will be invalidated."
He made no secret of his ambition.
Without the Xu family, he would go south without hesitation.
Lin Mo raised an eyebrow, "Isn't the Seventh Prince's request a bit too much?"
Unexpectedly, Li Shengting sneered, "Who wouldn't take a bite out of the chaos in the current Da Ye?
If your Xu family were not in Mocheng, do you think Mocheng would be as peaceful as it is now?
If your Xu family no longer exists, this place does not belong to your Xu family. Why should I still hide my ambitions? "
Some ambitions can stop some people.
For example, the Xu family.
Li Shengting didn't dare to test the Xu family's appeal, as he was afraid the price would be too high.
In this case, he naturally wants to gain benefits for himself.
Lin Mo smiled. She liked Li Shengting's honesty and his willingness to not hide his ambitions.
Who doesn’t have ambition?
Especially for someone in his position, it would be a lie to say that he has no ambition.
Putting away his smile, Lin Mo said seriously, "Seventh Prince, you gave us such a big piece of cake to the Xu family. Tell me honestly, what do you want?
Now I am afraid that I can’t pay what you want and I can’t eat this big pie.”
The cake is really delicious, but the price is too high.
Li Shengting no longer concealed the truth. "One thousand acres of corn seeds, five hundred acres of potato seeds, and also the film production process."
"You have a big appetite." Lin Mo's smile faded.
"With these things, if Beiling is well managed, within three years the national strength will increase several times over, and food and fodder will also become abundant."
Li Shengting chuckled, "That depends on who's running it, doesn't it?
Not everyone has the courage, right?"
Lin Mo didn't say anything.
She thought about this matter in her mind. To be honest, the suggestion made by Li Shengting was very tempting to her.
Twenty years of stability is enough for them to do a lot of things.
Therefore, there is no need to promote such a good business. Anyone who does so is a fool.
But if you don't take advantage of an opportunity, you are also a bastard.
Bargaining is a natural part of doing business.
Lin Mo looked up, "Twenty years is too short, at least thirty years."
Li Shengting's face froze, and after a while he spoke, "It would be a waste of your talent if you didn't become a bandit. Even bandits can't rob as well as you."
"Nonsense, they definitely don't know how to do it as well as I do." Lin Mo said proudly:
"They robbed money with force, but I robbed money with my brain. How can we compare?"
Li Shengting immediately turned hostile and started to get carried away when he gave her some paint.
This woman is so hateful.
He shook his head, "Thirty years is too long, twenty-five."
"Then it will be thirty-five years." Lin Mo bargained nonchalantly. Are you kidding? She has three kids to support, so she needs to have some assets, right?
Li Shengting wanted to vomit blood. This woman was a devil.
He took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, "Then thirty years."
"Deal!" Lin Mo looked happy.
Then he asked Xu Pinggui to bring paper, ink, pen and inkstone, and let him write the contract directly.
She is a pregnant woman and is very delicate now.
Things like taking action will naturally be left to them.
Li Shengting didn't waste time on such trivial matters and took action directly.
After finishing writing, he handed it to her to read. After confirming that there was no problem, they both signed and stamped it.
After folding the contract in his hand, Li Shengting looked at Lin Mo who was blowing on the contract and said, "You are a profiteer."
And the greediest kind.
"No problem, there's no business without fraud." Lin Mo's smile remained bright. "Seventh Prince, we will be neighbors from now on. Please take good care of me for the next thirty years."
Seeing Li Shengting rolling his eyes, Lin Mo immediately asked Qinglian, who had just walked in holding Xu Ziyue, to hand Xu Ziyue to Li Shengting.
Then he said with a considerate look, "Seventh Prince, I know you must miss your son very much. Come, let your good son sleep with you tonight."
Li Shengting was displeased.
The child is sleeping soundly, why take him out?
But when he saw Xu Ziyue open his eyes, look at him hazily and then continue to sleep, Li Shengting softened his heart.
"lead the way!"
After Li Shengting left, Lin Mo looked at Qinglian beside him with a smug look on his face, "So, am I, your young lady, any good?
Thirty years of peace on the border of Mocheng has come at no cost."
Those seeds are valuable to others, but they are nothing to her.
Qinglian nodded in admiration, "Young Madam, you are the best!"
"Since I'm so awesome, would you mind making me a midnight snack as a reward? I'm hungry!"
Qinglian's face fell immediately:
"Madam, Doctor Mu said you can't eat too much right now!"
