Chapter 649: Business mutual support
Business? It's business again. Mr. He and He Juncong, father and son, looked at each other and saw the same confusion and excitement in each other's eyes.
The last time Bi Yuntao came over to discuss a business with their He family, he founded the Nadutong Express Company. Only a few days after it was founded, there was already an endless stream of customers visiting. They had never felt that money was so valuable. It’s so easy to earn, it’s as easy as picking up money. If you don’t want it, others will force it into your hands. Even if you don’t want it, they will cry and shout for you to take it.
In just these few days, they have earned more money than they have earned in the past month. Even with such a big plate as their He family, they are facing the problem of insufficient manpower.
Now that Bi Yuntao has come to talk to them about business again, this can no longer be regarded as a favor. This is the blessing of their He family. There is no reason to refuse this huge pie on their heads.
"My dear son-in-law, feel free to ask for anything you have. As long as my He family is useful, my He family will definitely do my duty. No matter whether it is going up the mountain of knives or going down into the sea of fire, I, He Jiahuan, will never frown."
Mr. He's words were full of heroism, his pride was still as high as before, and his eyes flashed frequently, indicating that he was willing to die generously.
Bi Yuntao's mouth twitched when he saw it. Damn it, I didn't ask you to go to the battlefield, I just cooperated with you to make money. How could you be so righteous?
Little did they know that Mr. He's words were nothing more than a declaration of surrender. As these words came out, Mr. He had decided to invest all of the He family's wealth in Bi Yuntao.
Of course, Bi Yuntao didn't know the true intention of these words, so he didn't take it to heart at all. He smiled at Mr. He and said, "I understand what Mr. He means."
Standing beside Mr. He, He Juncong breathed a sigh of relief. Despite the calm look on his face, his heart was in his throat and he was almost nervous. He was deeply afraid of what his father would do. Bi Yuntao's request for a petition was rejected.
Now the situation of seizing the heir is not very clear. Bi Yuntao has been living outside the court, so that some people who are kept in the dark cannot see through the twists and turns. However, the He family can still stand firm in Jinling City. However, there is a reason for becoming the oldest family.
Of course, this is inseparable from the efforts of generations, but it has developed to what it is today without anyone secretly supporting it. Just because the He family is reckless, they want to gain a foothold in the mixed place of Jinling City. It's simply whimsical.
So what is the emperor's intention? Their He family lives with the door closed and the door is very clean.
Now seeing Bi Yuntao agreeing, He Juncong was completely relieved. As long as he assists Bi Yuntao to ascend the throne, the He family will have countless glory and wealth.
"Hehehe, it's good if your son-in-law understands." Mr. He smoothed his beard and looked at Bi Yuntao with a kind look, "Xianson-in-law, don't talk too much. I wonder what the business is that my son-in-law said? Please show me clearly."
"The business the boy mentioned has something to do with the Poetry Competition. I wonder if your He family is interested?" Bi Yuntao said with a smile.
"Oh?" Mr. He's hand stroking his beard froze. All kinds of thoughts were running through his mind, and he asked in surprise: "Xian son-in-law, could it be that the Lu family also invited the Xue family?"
"That's right." Bi Yuntao nodded, there was nothing to hide about this kind of thing.
"Father, this person from the Lu family is not a good person." He Juncong's expression changed drastically, he stood up in a hurry and looked at Mr. He in panic.
"That's right." Mr. He said to Bi Yuntao with a serious look on his face, "The Xue family has not been involved in this matter for a long time, but now they are sending a message to the Xue family at the critical moment when something happened to the Xue family. It's really deplorable."
"But." Mr. He changed the subject, smiled broadly, continued to stroke his beard, and said with a smile: "Seeing that the good husband is so relaxed and comfortable, I must have already figured out a way to break the situation. Now that I have come to talk to the old man about business, I must have the need. Or where the He family is cooperating, a good son-in-law should not mince words and please make it clear to me."
"Hahaha." Bi Yuntao said with a smile: "Mr. He has a keen eye. I really can't hide this little thought from Mr. He."
Bi Yuntao's smile did not diminish, but a sharp light shot out from his eyes. There was a coldness in the corner of his mouth, full of murderous intent. The air in the room suddenly became stagnant, making it difficult for the He family father and son to breathe, and their hairs stood on end.
The hearts of the He family's father and son were instantly shaken, and their shock was beyond words.
Even though they had traveled all over the country and gained a lot of experience, they had never seen anyone with such killing intent as Bi Yuntao. The killing intent that was as cold as a knife made the two of them tremble with fear.
The two of them had the illusion that in the face of this substantial murderous intention, they were like two small boats in a storm, risking being destroyed by huge waves at any time.
Mr. He is an old man after all. Even though he was frightened, he quickly recovered from the shock. He was very satisfied with Bi Yuntao's aura of looking down on the world. His eyes when he looked at Bi Yuntao became softer and softer, and his eyes were still mixed with a strong emotion. Deep admiration.
"The good son-in-law is ridiculous. The old man has only lived a little longer, and his vision is far inferior to that of the good son-in-law. If the good son-in-law hadn't taken a fancy to someone like me, He, our He family would still be holding the handicap. How can we live a life with the prestige we have now." The more Mr. He looked at Bi Yuntao, the more satisfied he became.
Now he finally understood why the emperor valued the fourth prince so much, why he sent him here to look for the Riverside Scene during the Qingming Festival, and why he entrusted a lecher with such a major matter concerning the lifeline of the country. Now it seems that the emperor is indeed an emperor, with far-reaching vision and thoughtful thinking, which cannot be compared with those of them.
"Hahaha, Mr. He was joking." As Bi Yuntao put on his smile again, the murderous intention disappeared quietly.
"The boy is just a little smart and cannot be put on the stage." Bi Yuntao said with a smile, "The He family is strong. Even without the boy, with He Juncong's intelligence, the He family's reputation and business will reach the heights it is today sooner or later."
"A good son-in-law, don't be ridiculous. Juncong is not as offensive as he is defensive. How can he be compared to a good son-in-law?"
Mr. He gave a wry smile and glanced at He Juncong, who had not yet recovered from the shock, and couldn't help but feel angry. It's so annoying that people are so angry. They say that dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes give birth to phoenixes. The son of a mouse can make holes. My stupid son can't even make holes now. Ben was still thinking of leaving the He family in his hands, but it seemed that it was too early.
When He Juncong heard his father talking about him like this, his face suddenly became filled with black lines, but he had nothing to say. Who called him his father? Why should I find a reason to beat my son?
But he kept muttering in his heart that comparing himself to Bi Yuntao was simply a fantasy. Bi Yuntao is the current King of Qi. Who is he? At best, he is the eldest son of the He family, but at worst, he is a nouveau riche. In front of him, he is just a country bumpkin.
"Father, I'll save the polite words for later. For now, it's better to listen to what Mr. Bi has to say." He Juncong interrupted the business bragging between the two of them, and let them continue to brag about it. They probably won't talk until dark. Not getting down to business.
