Lin Bai was a little unhappy.
To collect food and grass and invite so many wealthy businessmen in the city, this is to take advantage of the big ones!
No wonder these people all have grim faces.
emotion……
Qi Renjie didn't seem to have this awareness, and said to Lin Bai: "Brother Lin, let's go! Don't let the old general wait too long."
Lin Bai had no idea, he had already come, he was now considered a big dog, he couldn't hide, he could only take a look first, if it doesn't work, just give it a try.
He immediately had no choice but to walk with Su Mingyue.
"Madam, who is this General Huang Teng and what is he like?"
Lin Bai felt that it was necessary to find out first. If it was a master who was not easy to mess with, he would have no choice but to spend money to eliminate the disaster. After all, the arm could not twist the thigh.
Su Mingyue thought for a while and said: "I heard that Old General Huang Teng hates evil as much as his enemies and loves his soldiers as his own son. Although he has retired, he has always helped with logistics affairs. He is a very respectable old general."
have to!
Such people are usually very rigid, and most likely look down on the profit-seeking nature of businessmen.
He might be stabbed to death.
In Wangjiang Tower, there were already many wealthy businessmen and their children in the city, who had gained a lot of experience.
As soon as Lin Bai entered, he noticed a lot of eyes on him.
No way!
He was considered a celebrity in Jiangzhou City, especially in the eyes of those rich ladies, he suddenly felt a little disdainful.
But then he found that his wife was looking at her more, which made him very unhappy. He grabbed Su Mingyue's hand and intertwined their fingers to declare his sovereignty.
Su Mingyue's pretty face was slightly red, but she didn't struggle. Maybe she thought so too.
The two of them found a place to sit down.
Participants came one after another, and the entire hall was filled with wealthy businessmen in the city, as well as some famous talents and beauties.
At this time, a group of people came from the front of the hall. The leaders were the prefect Qin Huaizhong and the fellow prefect Jiang Ruhai. Between them was an old man with gray hair. Although the old man was not young, he had a straight back, sharp eyes, and a military look. Unique temperament.
After that, there were also general judges Wu Wenyong, Song Qianshan and others.
Qin Kexin and Song Qianqian also followed behind.
Especially the fairy Song Qianqian, who looked around as soon as she came out, as if she was looking for something, until she saw Lin Bai, the corner of her mouth couldn't help but raise.
But when he saw Su Mingyue, he subconsciously puffed up his chest. It was already impressive, but now it became even more attractive.
This goblin!
Lin Bai swallowed subconsciously.
At the same time, he secretly glanced at Su Mingyue and saw that she had no reaction.
At this time, Qin Huaizhong had already spoken, "Everyone, let me introduce to you, this is General Huang Teng Huang..."
There was a sound of slapping horses below.
Huang Teng was obviously unhappy and said, "Everyone, please take a seat!"
Before everyone sat down, he spoke again, "I won't beat around the bush. The war ahead is tense. General Wu took the route south of the Yangtze River to prepare food and grass, and is about to go north to fight against the Hu people. I volunteered to come to Jiangzhou..."
It's really resolute.
Apart from anything else, he had the style of a soldier, but he just wanted money, and everyone looked a little unhappy.
Qin Huaizhong was much more tactful and said: "Everyone, during this time of national crisis, Old General Huang risked his own body to fight for this. How can we just sit back and watch."
"good!"
Song Qianshan agreed: "The Song family is willing to donate 50,000 taels, and hopes that the general will win and defeat the barbarians."
The Song family is one of the largest aristocratic families in Jiangzhou City. Their business is spread all over the country. They are not limited to Jiangzhou for a long time. They also have a very good relationship with the prefect. This is taking the lead in responding.
Wealthy businessmen know that if they don’t bleed at this time, they may be put in small shoes in the future.
You can't hide anyway, so just be more active.
For a time, many people donated.
Su Mingyue also stood up at this time and stepped forward to donate money. Lin Bai's flesh ached, but there was nothing he could do.
Wu Wenyong was in charge of the registration. When he saw the amount of Su Mingyue's donation, he sneered, "The Su family is in great prosperity. Isn't it too stingy to only donate a mere ten thousand taels?"
Strictly speaking, ten thousand taels is a lot.
But as Wu Wenyong said, the Su family's recent acquisition of three major cloth shops has been extremely popular, and the ten thousand taels do not match their current reputation.
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look over and whisper.
"Yes! The Su family annexed three major cloth shops. They are so rich, but they only donate so little."
"Who says it's not!"
"..."
Su Mingyue's expression was calm and she seemed to have no intention of explaining.
Lin Bai didn't tolerate this nonsense. Ten thousand taels was still too little, so why not grab it? He was about to speak.
On the other side, Song Qianqian couldn't help it at first, "After the price war between the Su family and the three major cloth stores, and then the merger and acquisition, there is no cash left."
"good!"
Qin Kexin also echoed.
Wu Wenyong hummed: "It's related to the frontline war, and I won't get a point. If you really have your heart, you will always find a way."
"I still remember what my uncle Su said about his family and his country. I never thought that when it came time to pay, he would just fool around with it."
very good!
This is obviously coming at me and I can't bear it.
Lin Bai couldn't help but get angry.
However, at this moment, Huang Teng suddenly said: "Could this be Miss Su from Su's Cloth Shop?"
Su Mingyue bowed slightly, "It's just the little girl."
"good, very good!"
Huang Teng nodded, with a look of appreciation on his face, "Miss Su's generous donation really makes me admire you."
Everyone was a little confused. It was only ten thousand taels. There were many people present who had donated this amount or more. They didn't see what happened. Why did they go to Su's house...
Wu Wenyong was also a little skeptical. Could this be irony?
Even Lin Bai was startled.
What the hell?
Isn't this old guy a bitch? I think my wife is beautiful, so...
Huang Teng obviously realized something, and said quickly: "I'm afraid you don't know something. Su's Clothing Village has already donated 100,000 taels of silver during the fundraiser in Jinling."
What?
Everyone was shocked when these words came out.
Lin Bai almost jumped up, one hundred thousand taels? What is this prodigal bitch thinking?
etc! Where did she get one hundred thousand taels? As Song Qianqian said, the Su family didn't have much cash, and the subsequent series of operations had already exhausted it.
According to Lin Bai's estimation, 10,000 taels is the limit.
One hundred thousand taels is simply impossible.
Just when Lin Bai was confused, Huang Teng continued: "One hundred thousand taels is not the largest single donation this time, but it is the amount that touches General Wu and me the most."
"Just because this money did not come from the Su family, we later learned that the Su family had just experienced something and their cash had been exhausted. This money was borrowed and donated by Miss Su from Sihai Bank."
What! ?
Everyone in the crowd had expressions of disbelief on their faces.
Lin Bai was also completely confused. This prodigal woman took a loan to donate? What do you think? Can't get through this day?
What kind of soft food are you eating?
Everyone in the hall couldn't help but look at Su Mingyue at this time. Obviously, no one could understand such behavior.
Huang Teng didn't understand either. He looked at Su Mingyue and asked, "Miss Su, I have always wanted to ask you in person why Miss Su did this?"
