Chapter 260: Eating the Wipeout

"This He family was just a small business in Nianzhou ten years ago."

"It was me who brought you up little by little, walked you step by step to the capital, and established your foothold here."

"You are coveting the family business that I have built, and you are using the rules to oppress my mother and me."

"Then are you sure you can protect this house after we leave?"

Several people looked hesitant, but finally made up their minds: "Old man, you were able to handle it before because Mo Sheng was the eldest grandson of the eldest son, but now she is just a girl."

"So from now on, it will be difficult for you to be as smooth as before."

"I should go to the temple to practice meditation. I've been busy for ten years, so I should give myself a break."

Well said!

Why don't you get angry?

They retreat from the world because of their busy lives, but that is only after they have sold their property and become wealthy, and they enjoy a life of seclusion.

What these people said was that they clearly took the lion's share of the profits and only gave some monthly allowance to the mother and daughter.

They think they are 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 true that the recently fallen Tan family has a female head?"

"You old bastards, stop looking for high-sounding excuses. It's obvious that you just want to swallow up the family business that my grandpa and mom have worked so hard to build!"

"Your desire to eat the whole 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 and blue, but they still pretended to be deaf and dumb: "You kid, why don't you understand?"

"Girls are so willful and impulsive."

"It is also for your own good to let you practice in seclusion."

"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 this windfall to fall on their heads.

Several people looked at each other and discussed how to divide the lost 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 ask Madam He to come to the East Palace for a talk."

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 changed the person to negotiate with. Now that the new head of the family has not been chosen, I can have a say."

Who knew that the maid only glanced at him and said, "Your Highness is attracted to 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."

These words stopped several people who wanted to stay.

Several people gathered together and said in frustration: "Didn't she go to the last Yulou banquet?"

Another person said: "We went, 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 for him to follow the prince and make a fortune, just like the Tan family did before."

"They dumped us without even leaving us a drop of soup."

Mrs. He had a clear understanding of her own position: she was a tool used by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to make money, and she had no objection to any of the Crown Prince's requests.

Bei Jingchu felt embarrassed for making the lion open his mouth.

She also guessed that this Mrs. He might be playing psychological warfare on her, using a friendly and obedient attitude to make her like her more.

But you shouldn't hit someone who's smiling at you. Even if you know that someone is doing it on purpose, it's hard to be harsh with them.

After all, he is really obedient.

Then the subsequent negotiations went smoothly.

Mrs. He returned home with full hope for the future, and found that the old guys who had caused trouble for her were still there.

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 have a free meal?"

She deliberately said: "They are going to take away our property, do you still want to get another meal before leaving?"

“Even leeches can’t suck that 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 choke, and his eloquence is even better.

However, those who were scolded did not dare to act so 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."

"Because of you, our He family will rise to prominence overnight. 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: "Even magic tricks are not as fast as your changing faces. Isn't it just profitable now?"

"Do you really think that people's hearts will never be broken, that the things you said and did can be easily forgotten?"

"Don't worry about us mother and daughter. Just think of us as going to the Taoist temple to practice meditation."

"I don't even need you to send me a monthly allowance. Isn't that a good deal?"

"Let's divide the He family's business."

"Let's see if you can continue to run the business well after my mother and I are gone."

Several people were driven out.

Outside the door, a man 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 holding us back for the past ten years. If we had been in charge earlier, the He family might have been able to stand shoulder to shoulder with the imperial merchants!"

As a result, the He family collapsed completely not long after.

They realized that doing business is not that easy.

The elders who had originally united to eat up the family blamed each other: "It's all your fault. You said that they were two weak women who were easy to bully, and made us swallow up this 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 am just saying it."

"If you hadn't instigated me, I wouldn't have taken action even if I wanted to!"

"......"

This group of people shirked responsibility and quarreled endlessly, but Mrs. He and He Mosheng had long been out of their reach and they couldn't even see them.
