Chapter 83 What Can You Do to Me

Mo Yunzhu calmly drank a sip of tea, but her eyes were fixed on Ouyang Cong's changing face.

"Miss Mo, how much money do you think is necessary to settle the matter privately?" Ouyang Cong asked after taking a breath.

"Master Ouyang's life should be worth a lot. You have a lot of businesses, and Haiguanlou is one of the most prominent ones. How about this? I don't want much. How about 10% of the profits of Haiguanlou?"

"What!" Ouyang Cong almost jumped up. This is not much? Does she know how much money Haiguanlou makes?

"Why? One percent is too little. Then 20 percent will be fine. Isn't Young Master Ouyang's life worth 20 percent?" Mo Yunzhu said in a cold voice.

Jun Huolan and the four guards were all stunned. They knew that the young lady was powerful, but they didn't know she was so majestic.

If you can earn 20% of the profit here, considering how popular this place is, you should be able to make 10,000 yuan a day. 20% is 2,000, so you will make 60,000 yuan a month, and it will be long-term.

Ouyang Cong's face turned dark and pale. Looking at Mo Yunzhu's sharp eyes, he was speechless to the extreme.

"Sit down and think about it slowly. My note has been burned. It is my sincerity. If Master Ouyang wants to go back on his word, that's fine. Without the note, your charge may not be successful. Do you want to try to go back on your word?"

Ouyang Cong was terrified, he had indeed had this thought just now.

Mo Yunzhu has burned all the notes, so he can just make up an excuse himself. With his connections, he shouldn't end up dying.

But when he thought about those connections helping him, and how he could do something even more sinister, and put the evidence in their hands, he started to feel uneasy.

"Miss, can we have a one-time deal?" Ouyang Cong didn't want to share profits in the long term.

"Sure, how about three million taels to settle the bill all at once?" Mo Yunzhu said calmly.

"Three million taels, why don't you go and rob it!" Ouyang Cong was so angry that he couldn't hold back and roared.

"I can definitely snatch it. Isn't this giving you, the young master, a chance to save your life? Do you think I will let Gao Pianran go?"

"You!" Ouyang Cong didn't expect Mo Yunzhu to be so hostile and even call him a dog. Where did she get the courage from?

It was just a general's mansion. Prince Lan was unpopular and disabled, so he didn't take him seriously at all.

"What do you mean 'I'? Ouyang Cong, don't refuse a toast and then drink the wine for punishment. I know you have a wide network of contacts and someone in the court. I heard that he is the emperor's father-in-law or the emperor's uncle, hehe." Mo Yunzhu suddenly laughed so hard that she shook with laughter.

Ouyang Cong was shocked. How dare she say that? Where did she get the confidence from?

"Zhang Fengyi will be executed in three days, and the crown prince will be shut up for half a year. How do you think you and Gao Pianran compare to them?" Mo Yunzhu touched his chin with a cunning look in his eyes.

Sweat dripped down both sides of Ouyang Cong's forehead. How could he not know about this? He heard that the Empress had fallen into the hands of Mo Yunzhu this time.

But the biggest reason is that the emperor has taken a fancy to Mo Yunzhu.

But Mo Yunzhu is already Prince Lan's fiancée, so this matter is really a bit weird.

"Three million taels of silver or 20% of my income, you choose one. I will pretend that this matter has nothing to do with you, Ouyang Cong, but you'd better break up with Gao Pianran, otherwise I will settle the score with Gao Pianran later, and you will not be innocent. A green tea bitch is not worth your risk. It seems that you have too much shit in your head."

Mo Yunzhu spoke slowly and coldly, her pretty face showing an expressionless indifference, as if Ouyang Cong was an ant being stepped on.

Ouyang Cong's face was extremely ugly, and he had been thinking about it countless times. Mo Yunzhu was not in a hurry, and poured tea for Jun Huolan, saying: "Prince, drink some tea to moisten your throat."

Jun Huolan was shocked inside, but he also really admired Mo Yunzhu. How could she be so smart, capable and arrogant?

He is now a sick and disabled prince and is really a burden to her. If she doesn't get better, how can she be worthy of him?

"It's autumn and winter now, and the weather is too dry. I have to make some snow pear and white fungus soup to moisten my throat when I get home." Jun Huolan was also calm and composed.

"Well, Yuanqing, remember this when you go back." Mo Yunzhu said with a smile.

"Don't worry, Miss. Jasmine said early in the morning that we will definitely be able to drink it when we return."

"Moli is quite a smart girl." Mo Yunzhu chuckled.

Ouyang Cong sat down, looking very weak, with a knotted face. He occasionally looked at Mo Yunzhu, and then at Jun Huolan who was equally calm.

"Yunzhu, do you want to buy something later?" Jun Huolan asked.

Mo Yunzhu chuckled and said, "Then I have to look to Master Ouyang, otherwise I can't buy good things without money."

Jun Huolan's mouth twitched, and the four guards couldn't help laughing.

"Miss Mo." Ouyang Cong finally spoke, "Can you give me less?"

"Young Master Ouyang is indeed a businessman and knows how to bargain. Okay, tell me how to bargain?" Mo Yunzhu glanced at him.

"How about 1.5 million silver, all in one lump sum." Ouyang Cong gritted his teeth and said.

"Master Ouyang, aren't you bargaining too hard? You cut it in half right away. Do you think you're cutting a watermelon?"

"Puchi!" Yuan Qing couldn't help but burst out laughing. Then he looked at his three brothers, who were watching him trying hard to hold back his laughter, and immediately turned around and faced the wall.

Ouyang Cong was also a little embarrassed, but this was hard-earned money.

"Well, it seems like you don't want to give Haiguanlou a share, so the price is two million, no less."

Mo Yunzhu said in a cold and hard voice.

Ouyang Cong thought for a moment and said, "Okay, two million, and this matter has nothing to do with me anymore!"

"It's a deal!" Mo Yunzhu smiled. "Young Master Ouyang can pay for his mistakes. It seems that he can still be saved. Very good. Maybe we can become friends in the future."

Ouyang Cong was stunned, his pale face full of embarrassment, and then he said: "Thank you Miss Mo for liking me. What about this dagger and that dwarf?"

"I can give you the dagger, but I promised to kill the dwarf quickly, and I will give you the body later." Mo Yunzhu said.

Ouyang Cong narrowed his eyes, thinking that the dwarf might be dead.

Now that the witness is gone, he can easily make excuses.

"Why, you're still not convinced, Master Ouyang, you're so smart in business, why is your brain not working so well? Many things depend on your attitude and stance. If you stand in the wrong position, the consequences will be very serious."

After Mo Yunzhu finished speaking, Ouyang Cong still stared at her beautiful eyes which did not show a smile. At this moment, he suddenly felt that Mo Yunzhu was really not as simple as she seemed on the surface as rumored.

"Alright, you can't come up with two million all at once, so give me a deposit first and send it all to Prince Lan's Palace within three days."

"Yun Zhu..." Jun Huolan said anxiously.

"This is my private money. I can't keep it at home, so I'll leave it with you first." Mo Yunzhu grinned immediately, "It will be of great use later."

"Okay." Jun Huolan could only agree.

Ouyang Cong went out with the dagger and came back soon, giving Mo Yunzhu a silver note of 200,000 taels first.

At the side door, Jun Huolan got on the carriage first. Just as Mo Yunzhu was about to get on, Ouyang Cong immediately said nervously, "Miss Mo, you, you won't regret it, right?"

"Master Ouyang, don't worry. As long as you don't do stupid things again, this matter will be over. Of course, if I go back on my word, what can you do to me? So you can only choose to believe me. Goodbye!"
