Chapter 164 Congratulations to Uncle Shiyao
The next two days.
Xiao Junhe took the opportunity to inspect the situation of the Gui City branch.
Yun Mojiu stayed in the hotel, concentrating on drawing talismans and practicing.
That night.
The two went out to eat together.
The restaurant is right on the roadside and has a large window. Even when sitting in the restaurant, you can clearly see the scenery outside.
As they were eating, they saw a familiar figure.
Congratulations Shiyao!
In front of him was a middle-aged man who was probably in his forties.
The middle-aged man was wearing a black Mao suit, had short hair, a serious face and was stern.
This is in stark contrast to He Shiyao's playful smile.
No one knew what the two men said to each other, and the middle-aged man left in anger.
He Shiyao, however, looked heartless.
After the middle-aged man left, He Shiyao turned around and saw Yun Mojiu and Xiao Junhe eating in the restaurant.
His eyes lit up.
"What a coincidence, we meet again!"
He sat down next to Xiao Junhe without any courtesy.
Feeling that the seat was a bit crowded, he looked at Xiao Junhe with a smile.
"Hey, brother, please move inside."
This familiar look is astonishing.
"Who was that person you were talking to just now?"
Yun Mojiu suddenly spoke.
Xiao Junhe originally didn't want to pay attention to this sudden light bulb, but when he saw that Yun Mojiu had something to ask him, he frowned slightly and stood up.
Then he calmly walked over to Yun Mojiu and sat down.
Seeing Yun Mojiu looking at him, his face remained calm.
"I don't want to sit with him."
Yun Mojiu was speechless.
He Shiyao didn't mind being disliked at all.
He sat down with a smile on his face and waved to the waiter.
"Beautiful lady, please give me another set of bowls and chopsticks, thank you~"
After he finished speaking, he looked at Yun Mojiu.
"Oh, that man is my uncle. He is a rather old-fashioned person. He does things in a methodical manner and doesn't like to joke around.
I just happened to meet him.
He is a very solitary person.
Not only did he move out of the old house and live alone, but he was still a bachelor in his forties.
His family introduced so many women to him, but he didn't like any of them.
A man moved to live in a garden in the suburbs.
Tell me, what is he trying to achieve?
Moreover, he doesn't allow us to go to his garden. He is really not hospitable at all."
"Thank you~"
As soon as he finished speaking, the waiter brought the dishes and chopsticks over.
He took it with a smile.
"Didn't you notice that there was something wrong with your uncle?" Yun Mojiu looked at him and said.
He paused holding the dishes and chopsticks, looking puzzled.
"Something's wrong? What's wrong?"
Yun Mojiu recalled what he had just seen.
"He exudes a faint yin aura, which is formed by spending a long time with extremely yin things. Moreover, his time is approaching, and he has only one year left to live."
"What?!"
He Shiyao was shocked.
"how so?
It shouldn't be...
My He family will never associate with evil things.
Although my uncle is not as hostile to evil things as the Wei family, he will never live with them.
Did you see it wrong?
Why didn’t I see that at all?”
"You didn't see it because your uncle used a trick. Those who are weaker than him can't see it."
He Shiyao: ...
Well, he was hit.
"You mean, there's something sinister hidden in my uncle's house?"
"Yes, that's right, and they have been together for quite a while, at least more than ten years."
“So long!”
He Shiyao was surprised again.
Suddenly, he thought of something and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
"Could it be that my uncle is hiding a female ghost?"
Otherwise, it would be hard to explain why his uncle has been single for so many years, moved out of the old house, and not allowed them to go to his house.
He remembered that when he was a child, although his uncle was strict, he was not a lonely person.
Besides, my uncle is very filial.
I often go home to visit my grandparents.
It’s such a hustle and bustle to go back and forth.
If there wasn't something holding him back, there would be no reason for him to move out.
And even if you move out, you can find a house in the city. There is no need to go to such a remote place in the suburbs.
The more I think about it, the more suspicious it seems.
"This possibility cannot be ruled out."
Yun Mojiu nodded.
"Do you want to save your uncle?" She looked at He Shiyao seriously.
"Do you have a solution?" He Shiyao immediately became alert.
Although his uncle was a little strict with him, he was generally very nice to him.
My uncle has no children, so he basically raises him like his own son.
If he could save him, he would naturally do it without hesitation.
"certainly."
Yun Mojiu pursed his lips slightly, then raised a finger.
"This price, you pay and I'll save him."
“Cough…cough cough…”
He Shiyao had just picked up the water and took a sip when he suddenly heard Yun Mojiu's offer. The water got stuck in his throat and choked him.
"One million?! Can't you give me a discount?"
In the past, he was the one who asked others for prices, but today, he became the one who was asked for prices.
Yun Mojiu raised his eyebrows.
She didn't say one million.
She originally wanted to say 100,000.
It seems that one finger is really useful.
Everyone makes up their own bid.
Really good.
She was considering whether to give a 20% discount.
Even with a 20% discount, it would still be 800,000, which is eight times more than the expected 100,000.
However, before she could open her mouth, Xiao Junhe spoke for her.
What she said not only confused her, but also He Shiyao on the opposite side.
"What do you mean one million? Our Ah Jiu saved your uncle's life, how could it be only one million? At least ten million, no bargaining. You have to know that this is life-saving money. Ten million is not much for your uncle's life."
He had lost sensation in his legs and had been looking for medical help everywhere.
At that time, I learned about some Xuanmen families.
As one of the four major families of Xuanmen, the He family has a solid foundation and a long history. A mere 10 million is not a big deal for them.
Moreover, He Shiyao's uncle is currently the most powerful person in the He family.
Saving He Shiyao's uncle's life is equivalent to stabilizing the He family's position in Xuanmen.
Because once the other party dies, the current generation of the He family still has no particularly outstanding heir, and the He family is bound to decline.
For the He family, it was a huge loss.
Therefore, He Shiyao's uncle's life, worth ten million, is indeed not expensive.
He didn't ask for too much.
The He family can afford it.
"What, ten million? That's so much!"
He Shiyao suddenly became weak.
He doesn't have that much money!
Because he was always lazy and not concentrating on his cultivation, his father stopped giving him living expenses.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be cheating and taking advantage of others for free.
Alas, it’s all bitter tears.
"Um, can I buy it on credit?" he asked tentatively.
Xiao Junhe shook his head calmly, "No."
He Shiyao was silent.
"Then I'll just have to tell my family that I'm really... short of money."
He felt a little embarrassed.
"Oh, then come back to us after you've discussed it." Xiao Junhe remained calm.
Yun Mojiu on the side raised his eyes slightly and looked at Xiao Junhe with eyes full of admiration.
He is worthy of being the person in charge of Xiao Group.
The price is asked for in such a quick and decisive manner.
Yun Mojiu took a sip of the soup and felt happy.
It was originally worth only 100,000, but after He Shiyao raised the price himself, it became 1 million, and after Xiao Junhe's deception, it became 10 million.
In such a short period of time, it has increased so many times.
It makes me happy just thinking about it.
Coincidentally, she decided to set up an orphanage after some time.
With the addition of this money, the orphanage will have additional working capital.
