Although Ye Juechen didn't know what was on the stack of papers, he knew from Hua Yanxi's expression that she was shamelessly cheating on her father.
But so what if I get tricked.
The price has been shouted to this point. Even if she gets Hua Shao off, she will still have to pay more than nine million taels, or the control rights have already passed away to one of the two others.
Thinking of this, Ye Juechen felt relieved.
Originally he didn't plan to come today, but in order to see Hua Yanxi's deflated appearance, he didn't even do anything else just to watch this scene.
Did she really think that her father wouldn't be jealous of her that day? The king's pigtails were not picked casually.
Mr. Cao put down the paper in his hand and said to Hua Shao: "Hua Shaofu, you are indeed the successful bidder today. Although we are a government agency, since we are cooperating with you businessmen, we naturally pay attention to clearly marked prices. If you are today
If you can take out 9.26 million taels, then you take the control. Otherwise, the previous bidding may not count, and your bidding qualification will also be revoked, and the remaining three will bid again.
"
"What? Today?" Hua Shao never expected to be so anxious.
Even if he sent Hua Yun'er to the Lin family today to get the bride price, the shop wouldn't be able to be sold in a day or two.
"Yes, today is the day." Mr. Cao nodded.
"Master Cao, isn't this too much of a rush? How about this? I'll hand over five million taels first, and I'll do the rest as soon as possible." Hua Shao said quickly.
Master Cao shook his head: "No, this is the rule."
In fact, it stands to reason that it is possible, but Mr. Cao is really too worried now that he is looking at the business situation of the Hua family.
Naturally, the control of the salt merchant must be handed over to someone with financial resources and strength. The thing Hua Yanxi gave him not only included Hua Shao's profit and loss for nearly half a month, but also Hua Shao's current financial situation.
"But these nine million in one moment..." Hua Shao wanted to say something soft, but was interrupted by Hua Yanxi before he could finish.
"I can't get it out for a while? Is this because the fashion industry is cool for a while, but when it comes to cashing out, it gets stuck? Father, this is not a good habit of yours. When a man talks, he will talk about it. If you don't have money, you will give up.
Why are you pretending to be a big clove of garlic?" Hua Yanxi said helplessly.
"It's all your fault. Let's see if I don't beat you to death." Hua Shao was furious and raised his hand to hit Hua Yanxi.
But as soon as his hand was suspended in the air, his eyes met Hua Yanxi's eyes, and his whole movement was frozen there.
Hua Yanxi looked at Hua Shao with a faint smile: "Father, you still can't take your hand back, are you planning to ask me to help break it?"
Hua Shao gritted his teeth and retracted his hand: "This matter has nothing to do with you, you'd better say less."
"How could it be possible? If you can't do it anymore, your daughter will take over. The person with the last name Hua has the right to control the situation. Don't two families speak the same language?"
Hua Shao was disgusted by the success.
He said nice things to Mr. Cao, and even put his hands on his thighs. He just wanted to give him a few days of grace, but Mr. Cao, who was extremely annoyed, ordered someone to take him out.
Mr. Cao shook his head. He still wanted to cooperate with the imperial court with his courage.
Then, he looked at Hua Yanxi and said, "Fifth Princess, let's sign the contract. The control of this salt merchant is yours."
Hua Yanxi also nodded: "Okay, do you have to pay all the money today?"
As he spoke, he was about to reach out and take out his sleeves.
Mr. Cao rubbed his hands and said, "How can you do that? You are the emperor's daughter-in-law, so you still get this kind of preferential treatment. You just need to settle the 9.26 million taels within three days."
Hua Yanxi immediately took out her sleeves and looked at Mr. Cao: "Nine million two hundred and sixty thousand taels? Mr. Cao, are you right? I didn't bid such a high price. Have you forgotten? I have been paying for it from beginning to end.
I haven't called out the price, the price in my mind is only five million taels, and one more tael is not worth it."
Master Cao was immediately shocked and did not react for a moment.
Seeing that Hua Yanxi was trying to cheat, Ye Juechen immediately said: "If you are not willing to give so much money, naturally someone else will give it to you. I will just call the other two people back to bid again. They have all been given just now."
More than nine million taels."
Hua Yanxi raised her eyebrows: "Go ahead and call me. They don't know what to say all the way out. Without Hua Shao, you see how much they are willing to increase the price."
"Hua Yanxi, you are blatantly violating the rules!" Ye Juechen said angrily.
"Why don't you say you don't talk about martial ethics first? We agreed on a deposit of five million taels, but it turned into a bidding war. Hua Shao couldn't come up with the money, otherwise I would be the one who would leave in despair, right?"
"You! You are unreasonable!"
"You still don't mean what you say."
Seeing the two people quarreling, Mr. Cao was extremely panicked. The thing that was so popular just now was about to be smashed into his hands like this?
If the emperor takes the blame, will he still be okay?
"Fifth Princess, can we stop playing around? If the Holy One blames us, not only us, but also you will not be able to escape the blame." Master Cao said with fear.
Day by day, this heart cannot be stable.
He is too old to bear this stimulation.
"We already agreed to five million taels, but you guys regretted it first, so why are you getting involved with me?" Hua Yanxi was speechless.
Mr. Cao smiled bitterly: "The fifth prince and concubine, it is no longer a question of who is right or wrong. The emperor is so angry that millions of people will be killed."
Hua Yanxi thought about it. She wanted to reason with the emperor, but only if he was willing to let you reason with him. They were not in the same class in the first place, let alone fair. Fortunately, she was prepared.
Hua Yanxi curled her lips and started to take something out of her sleeves: "Okay, okay, I'll just assume that you can call people back to nine million."
Master Cao finally felt relieved when he saw that Hua Yanxi was planning to accept nine million taels. Just a little less. The emperor probably wouldn't care about that small change.
Ye Juechen saw Hua Yanxi start to take out her sleeves, looked at her wide and empty sleeves, and frowned: "How much can you stuff in your sleeves? In addition to a stack of paper, there are also banknotes.
?”
Hua Yanxi hummed: "It's not enough. Here, here it is for you."
Mr. Cao was so excited that he reached out to pick it up. When he took it, his face turned strange.
This is not a banknote.
"What's this?"
"It's for cash bills." Hua Yanxi said unhappily.
Don't even think about asking her to spend more money.
"What is this?"
Hua Yanxi said calmly: "This is the detailed evidence of tax evasion by all the people who participated in the control of the salt merchants over the years. Please report it to the emperor. Adding the tax arrears and fines, it can still be worth four to five million."
