When Meng Jiao heard this, he knew that Shi Yue was going to take advantage of the situation and extort money, but the reason was extremely sufficient, and it was impossible to see that he was blackmailing. Mingyue Tower is the leading flower building in the capital. When will there be some fighting incidents, but how can he affect the prosperous business?
He didn't even want Mingyue Tower, and he didn't care about these small money. He waved his hand generously and said happily: "If Shi Qianhu hadn't reminded me, I would have forgotten.i^"
"Let's do this, Shi Qianhu tells me a price, I, Meng Jiao, offer it all. Who made me drunk and cause trouble? I should pay it with care, and..."
Meng Jiao pointed to the broken tables and chairs and said freely: "Although these destroyed tables and chairs are not worth much, I will ask Shi Qianhu to discount the price and I will compensate you together."
"Young Master Meng, you are indeed a generous person, which is amazing."
Shi Yue looked at Meng Jiao's disregarded appearance and was amused. He pondered for a moment, and said with a smile: "These benefactors who were scared away tonight are all wealthy young masters and children of officials in the capital. In terms of their identities, they are definitely not inferior to Mr. Meng. If they are wronged in their hearts, they will have to cause trouble for Mingyuelou in the future. So... without 100,000 taels of silver to those young masters, the young master will not be able to settle this matter."
"What? I want... I want 100,000 taels of silver?" Meng Jiao tilted his body and almost fell to the ground, not wanting to stand up again.
Kong Liren also widened his eyes, not expecting Shi Yue to be so big a lion's nose.
Yan Tong glanced at Shi Yue with charming eyes, thinking that this guy is really greedy for money, and even blackmailed to make him feel unlucky and righteous.
"What? Is Mr. Meng very surprised?"
Shi Yue smiled and said, "These silver sounds scary. For me, a poor man, it is a shocking number. However, Mr. Meng will never care about this little money. If you do some ceramic business casually, will the silver be put into your purse?"
Hearing Shi Yue repeatedly mentioned the ceramic business, Meng Jiao knew that the 100,000 taels of silver must be contributed. He waved his hand and pretended to be generous, and said with a smile: "What did Shi Qianhu say? I should offer this silver as much as possible, and I must not make it difficult for Shi Qianhu.%&*";"
For Meng Jiao, a hundred thousand taels of silver was not much, and it was not a drop in a bucket, but he felt very wronged when he was blackmailed.
Meng Jiao pointed to the broken chairs and said terrified: "These tables and chairs are not worth much money, so forget it..."
Shi Yue smiled: "These tables and chairs are not worth much, but I know that Mr. Meng is a person with a temperament and will never be willing to take advantage of others. Therefore, I cannot wipe the fraction of it and then let the girl in the building and servant criticize the young master of the Meng family as a poor man, and let Mr. Meng take the blame."
Meng Jiao's scalp numb and a cool breeze blew behind his head. In the world, there is no such person who can embellish such a hypocritical blackmail.
Yan Tong looked at Shi Yue's lavish face, not only felt that he was hatefully greedy, but also felt that this guy was very useful.
If you dig it to yourself or the emperor's side, you should have the effect of the Dinghai Scientific Needle.
Hongxing just now thought about the expenses of tables, chairs, beads, cups and jade. Ten thousand taels of silver was indeed enough, only a lot or less. For fear that Shi Yue would not know the market, he would write it on paper and give Shi Yue a reference details.
She gave Shi Yue a detailed look. Shi Yue took a look and then grabbed the brush between her fingers.
Hongxing doesn’t know what Shi Yue is going to do?
When he looked at Shi Yue with his bright eyes, he changed the word "一" to "cross", which shocked Hong Xing.
Looking at Hongxing's incredible expression covering her mouth and her charming eyes, Yan Tong also guessed that Shi Yue was about to open her mouth again.
Shi Yue shook the details, and did not let Meng Jiao see clearly. He said generously: "Mr. Meng, your subordinates broke two jade chairs and two amber tea cups, which were converted into cash silver, and only 4,000 taels of silver, which was not expensive."
When Meng Jiao heard this, he felt relieved, wiped his sweat, and smiled and said, "It's not expensive! It's really not expensive!"
He didn't lie. The price of a jade chair and an amber tea cup is worth 4,000 taels of silver, the real price of a fair and innocent person - he was secretly curious in his heart, this guy actually found out with conscience and reasoned with me?
Shi Yue looked at He Dan again and said with a smile: "Mr. He, I think you don't want to get advantage of me. Your guard Huang Huan broke four chairs and two tables! How should I calculate this? I want to do it, but I am afraid that Mr. He will embarrass him..."
He Dan was angry when he heard this.
Huang Huan was entangled by the chair and couldn't get out of his body. He was about to be injured. Then he tried his best to smash the chair to pieces, splashing out the debris, breaking three chairs and two tables - Strictly speaking, Shi Yue also had "credits" for these tables and chairs, but his "credits" were relatively secret. He was not a top master, so he naturally could not see the truth.
Huang Huan clenched his fists and was about to burst out anger. He Dan hurriedly gave him a wink, letting Huang Huan recognize some real things, and said elegantly: "Don't worry, Shi Qianhu, although I am short of money, I will never be able to pay for the money. I will compensate you all."
As He Dan spoke, his eyes glanced at Meng Jiao's face, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
Meng Jiao understood and hurriedly said, "Prime Minister He doesn't need to be so cumbersome. I will compensate Shi Qianhu all for today's compensation first. Let's settle the accounts between us later."
He was so happy that he paid the bill. He thought that the total amount was only 10,000 taels of silver, why not sell his favor?
He Dan gave in a few words and stopped talking. In his eyes, it was natural for Meng Jiao to pay his bills for him and should be nothing.
"Shi Qianhu, I remember all these broken seats and cups of 10,000 taels of silver." Meng Jiao said with a big bag.
"What? Mr. Meng, who told you that it was 10,000 taels of silver?" Shi Yue frowned and looked surprised.
Meng Jiao's heart skipped a beat, thinking about whether there was something wrong with it, but Shi Yue was tricked by him again. He scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "I really think I'm not wrong..."
"Young Master Meng is not wrong, but you missed it as a priceless thing."
Shi Yue picked up a half-parted jade chair legs, slapped them in front of Meng Jiao, and said coldly: "As long as you are not blind, you should be able to see the words written on it."
Meng Jiao looked at it and saw that the words were indeed mentioned above, and he wrote them arrogantly and domineeringly, and he said in surprise: "What's the point of saying something if you have words?"
"What's the saying?"
Shi Yue curled his lips, "It's a good thing that Mr. Meng claims to be a scholar, but he doesn't know who wrote the words on it?"
He turned to He Dan and said, "Mr. He is knowledgeable and talented, and he is a great scholar in the world. Should he recognize these treasures from whom should he know?"
He Dan was really knowledgeable. He came over and frowned, and said with a serious expression: "This is the calligraphy of Geng, the supervisor of Wenxing Academy."
When Meng Jiao heard this, his head buzzed and he vomited blood in his heart.
Why don’t you die? What words are you talking about on the legs of the chair when you’re okay? You’re so full when you’re full?
