Mu Chen smiled.
Looking at Su Qian and Yao Ye's astonished expressions, he said, "Even if it costs a hundred million, I'm willing to do it! But I'm afraid... I won't be able to get her flower ribbon."
One hundred million?
Both Su Qian and Yao Ye had mentally estimated how much money the boss actually had!
Tangtang Capital and Guolin together have raised approximately 100 million yuan.
Besides, both sides are money-making machines.
Judging from the boss's tone, it seems he has more than 100 million in his secret stash.
"I can't believe it. I've met Miss Tang. We women can't be wrong about our feelings. She cares about you."
"There are always unexpected events; who can say for sure?"
"Do you need a group of friends and family? Our company will give you a few days off, and we'll all come and cheer you on. We've never seen your Miao Drum Festival before, let alone an engagement party with fireworks costing millions. We have to join in the fun and get on good terms with our future boss's wife in advance."
"I want to go too, even if I get forced to drink, I'll accept it." Yao Ye longed for that kind of scene.
Mu Chen nodded, “Yes, we need to. In previous years, at least 10,000 people participated in our Miao Drum Festival. This year, there will be even more. Our orchard alone has contributed three million. You can go and experience the long table banquet for a thousand people and the matchmaking scene for a thousand people. It’s really spectacular.”
"Boss, please don't be offended by what I'm saying; what if, just what if, you don't get that flower ribbon, then all this money will be wasted?"
"Then I'll keep begging, and if I can't get it, I'll just steal it."
"Rob? You can rob someone?" Yao Ye was twenty-five or twenty-six years old, his eyes wide with disbelief.
Mu Chen said, "We have a custom of kidnapping brides in our area, but it can only be done within a specified time. If you don't kidnap them, the elders will gossip about it."
"Then let's go rob it!"
"You can't snatch things during the drum festival, you can only beg by playing the lusheng!"
"Then let's try to steal it when we can."
Yao Ye seemed to be getting excited, but Su Qian interrupted him, saying, "If that were really the case, wouldn't the CFO think our Prince Mu is so in love with you, and wouldn't he try to snatch you up?"
"What's the explanation? Boss, what's the explanation?"
"During the bride kidnapping, even if you succeed, if the other party doesn't like you, they will return the gifts according to custom, and that will be the end of it. After that, the man must not bother the woman again, otherwise, he will be taken away by the nine clan elders and thrown into a very mysterious place to be burned."
Upon hearing this, Yao Ye was terrified and wiped away a cold sweat. "Oh my god, that was so scary! It was really hot!"
"Anyway, those who were offended have all disappeared. Besides, the girl I like is a saint, and it would be a risky move to steal her away."
"Boss, I've only heard the Miao girls talk about the Holy Maiden. Is she the kind with a lot of power?"
"A thousand years ago, after the Miao King of our Miao people died tragically on the battlefield, the Miao Queen also committed suicide for love. After that, the Holy Maiden took charge of the Miao Seal, which is the Chi Seal. No one dared to disobey the Holy Maiden's words, and no one in the Miao people could rival her power. In ancient times, at the Holy Maiden's command, the brave and skilled Miao men would obey the order and rush to the battlefield, one after another."
Su Qian and Yao Ye were quite shocked.
"Tang Mo is the new Holy Maiden, a destiny ordained by Heaven!"
Mu Chen said softly, “My Miao girls are simple and sincere. They love only one person in their lives and are truly faithful to one another. They never betray their love and will follow you no matter what. It is because of this excellent marriage custom that my Miao girls have a very pure view of love. In their eyes, love is better than time and everything else.”
Upon hearing this, Yao Ye murmured to himself, his face full of longing: "Marrying a Miao girl would be the happiest thing in my life."
Actually, what Yao Ye really wanted to ask was whether the Miao people had love potions.
But he didn't dare ask that question because...
Assistant Xi arrived with Arui and Azhuang.
cough cough...
He coughed twice and said, "Boss, my childhood friend started a wedding planning company after graduation. He might have what you need. Do you want to ask him?"
"Director Yao, why didn't you say so sooner?"
Yao Ye wasn't unwilling to speak up; he was simply captivated by the Miao people's customs.
Mu Chen nodded, then got up and went to the side to make a phone call.
Mu Chen turned to A Rui and A Zhuang and asked, "Why didn't you play a little longer? There's a night market that stretches for three or four kilometers in the city center. It's very lively. Didn't you go?"
"I went there, my money was stolen, and they even slashed my pants." Ah Zhuang turned to the side, letting Mu Chen see his pocket.
Mu Chen looked at the long gash and smiled.
I thought to myself, thank goodness it only tore your pants and didn't slash your testicles, otherwise it would have been a laughing stock.
Su Qian and her assistant suppressed their laughter, while A Rui remained calm.
Ah Zhuang looked distressed and said, "That was all the money I had, more than twenty yuan! Ah Chen, when are we going back to the village?"
Mmm...
Assistant Xi, standing next to her, tried hard to suppress her laughter, but her shoulders kept shaking. Finally, she couldn't hold it in any longer and ran to the restroom.
Su Qian was also trying her best to hold it in; it was just too funny.
It turns out that this Miao boy was so excited to go out and play, but he came back so early because his money was stolen by a pickpocket.
Just as Mu Chen was about to speak, Yao Ye, who had finished making a phone call on the balcony, came in. "Boss, my friend said that he can basically meet your requirements, but he needs to find out more details before he can give you a reply! But he is currently on a business trip in Yanjing and will not be back in Shanghai until the day after tomorrow at the latest."
Shanghai?
By the way, didn't that news from Shanghai at the end of July 1995 cause a sensation in the entire antique industry? It was a huge news story back then, and the location was Shanghai.
Without hesitation, Mu Chen said directly, "We're going to Shanghai tomorrow, leaving in the morning."
"Ah Chen, you're going to Shanghai? It's very far."
Ah Zhuang was very interested, but when Mu Chen said he would take him out to play, he shook his head like a rattle-drum, clearly wary and afraid of being robbed.
"If you're not going, then wait for me in Lincheng! Arui can come with me." Mu Chen took out a few hundred-yuan bills from his pocket and gave them to him.
Ah Zhuang asked, "When are you coming back?"
"uncertain!"
"Then I'd better go back to the village; it'll be more reassuring there!"
“Okay, we’ll take you to the station tomorrow. Once you get to the county town, call Uncle Arong and ask him to buy all the things I need and bring them back to the orchard to be piled up.”
"Ugh---"
Su Qian hesitated for a moment, then said that she also wanted to go to Shanghai with Mu Chen.
Mu Chen didn't refuse, but asked, "If you also go to Shanghai, what will happen to the company?"
"I can manage the company's restructuring remotely, it won't be delayed. I also want to go and see a metropolis like Shanghai."
"Sure, you can go and take a look if you want!"
Mu Chen nodded, and Su Qian couldn't sit still any longer. She greeted him and then took her assistant, Xi, to make arrangements that very night.
"Boss, I'll go and get ready first."
After Yao Ye and the others left, Mu Chen gave Ah Zhuang a few instructions, took a shower, and went to sleep.
