Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish
Chapter 683 The stingy Yang family
Hearing Chu Mo's words, Zhang Chenggui didn't react for a while:
"Sir, our original intention was not to say yes..."
Just as he was talking, he suddenly met Chu Mo's gnawing eyes, and Zhang Chenggui couldn't help but trembled:
"My lord, whatever you say is what you say."
Chu Mo snorted coldly:
"There are so many agents sneaking into the inner city. If we don't catch them all tonight, they will only be hidden even deeper after today."
"Don't worry about whether I want to marry the daughter of the Yang family today. You just need to remember one thing. If you don't hear my "personal" order, even if the King of Heaven tells you to stop, you will treat it as fart."
Hearing that Chu Mo specifically emphasized the word "personal", Zhang Chenggui immediately understood what Chu Mo meant.
Soon, the Army, which had initially slowed down its offensive, received orders again, and the pace of the attack increased to another level.
When Yang Zhao heard the report from his subordinates that Chu Mo not only did not stop the atrocities, but was getting worse, he was furious.
At this moment, the housekeeper who went to contact him also happened to return to the Yang Mansion.
As soon as the housekeeper returned to the Yang Mansion, he immediately found Yang Zhao and told him what had just happened.
When Chu Mo specifically mentioned the dowry and divided it into different grades, the old fox Yang Zhao immediately understood what he meant.
Chu Mo was unhappy and wanted to bite the Yang family hard.
Thinking of this, Yang Zhao showed a contemptuous smile.
Compared to the role he could play by putting Yang Hongling next to Chu Mo, what did a little money mean?
Originally, he just wanted to let Yang Ting shed some blood and get some dowry to send.
But now, since Chu Mo is so straightforward about extortion, Yang Ting cannot bear it alone.
Thinking of this, Yang Zhao gritted his teeth and said cruelly to the housekeeper:
"Go to the treasury to get 100 million taels of silver notes, plus the deeds to ten outer city houses, as well as the deeds to ten Luozhou City and ten Panzhou City outer city shops, and send them to Hongling as a dowry."
Butler Yang was stunned when he heard the amount of dowry given by Yang Zhao.
He was not shocked by the amount of the dowry, but by the stinginess of the old lady.
Who doesn't know that Chu Mo is a profiteer who is said to be the richest in the world. Even on weekdays, how can a little property get into the eyes of the other party?
Now that the other party has specifically stated that it will cause the Yang family to bleed a lot, the old man only wants to fool the other party with some property. Isn't this a bit childish?
Moreover, the Yang family had embezzled countless pieces of Chu Mo's wealth before, a mere 100 million taels, which was not an exaggeration. He didn't know where the old man got the confidence to think that this little thing could satisfy Chu Mo's greed.
But because he was speaking softly and the old man looked confident, Butler Yang had no choice but to swallow the words that came to his mouth and go down to get ready.
When Yang Ting saw the 100 million taels of silver notes sent by Butler Yang and the shops with deeds, his eyes immediately lit up.
However, after hearing that this was the dowry specially approved by the old lady for Yang Hongling, the fire of desire in her eyes gradually extinguished.
Previously, his family had prepared a full 5 taels of silver for Hong Ling as a dowry, but Miao didn't expect that his grandfather would be so generous. He spent 100 million taels at once. In this case, does his family's 5 taels seem to be worthless? No more?
Thinking of this, he hurriedly rushed into the room, collected the 5 taels of silver notes that he had prepared, and put the 100 million taels of silver notes and the house deed sent by Butler Yang back into the gift box.
When Chu Ruowan slowly came to the Yang Mansion with the three masters, Hanshan layman.
Zhang Chenggui led his troops and also attacked the nearby streets.
It's better to say it's an attack than an investigation.
Because after the army entered the city, in addition to encountering sporadic resistance at the beginning, the rest of the time basically started searching and investigating house to house.
And when the news came out from the Yang family that they were going to marry Chu Mo, the Yang family members who were still hiding around and preparing to resist, as well as those families who were friendly with the Yang family, all put down their weapons and stopped resisting.
As soon as Zhang Chenggui arrived near the Yang Mansion, he ordered the soldiers to fire a wave of fire cannons into the sky to remind everyone in the Yang family that the army had arrived.
Then, Chu Ruowan and his party entered the Yang Mansion through the smoke that had not yet dissipated.
Seeing that Chu Mo did not come to pick up the bride in person, Yang Zhao and Yang Ting were inevitably disappointed.
But after hearing that the other party sent three master-level experts, the dissatisfaction and disappointment in my heart instantly turned into surprise.
Chu Mo didn't come, probably because the other party was concerned about his identity and couldn't come.
After all, Yang Hongling was only married to Chu Mo as a concubine. It was impossible for her to be greeted with gongs and drums and an eight-carriage sedan chair like the wife she was marrying.
As for the soldiers outside, they were regarded by the Yang family as part of the wedding team, and no one took them seriously.
Soon, the two parties conducted a simple handover of the bride price.
Although Chu Mo didn't let him bring any betrothal gift, the considerate Chu Ruowan still took out the 20 taels of silver that the other party had returned to her as a betrothal gift.
Looking at the two shiny silver ingots placed in front of them, the Yang family's group had strange expressions on their faces.
Yang Zhao and Yang Ting were so angry that they almost spit out blood. They spent 100 million taels of silver, but the other party did insult them with 20 taels of silver.
Even if you, Chu Mo, don't pay a penny, I, the Yang family, won't say a word more, but if you give out 20 taels of silver, don't you think it's insulting?
The other Yang family members all looked like they had nothing to do with themselves and were just watching the show.
How envious and jealous they were before that Yang Hongling could be chosen by the old man to marry Chu Mo, how much they were gloating about it now.
Not to mention anything else, I just said that the other party was married into the Chu family as a concubine. Not only did she not get the same treatment as Yang Hongyu, but looking at the situation now, it seemed that Chu Mo didn't want to see her very much.
Sure enough, when Chu Ruowan saw the 100 million taels of silver that the Yang family had given out, as well as the 20 worthless shops and houses, her face became extremely gloomy, and she almost fell out.
"Old Mrs. Yang, my master said that this dowry is not enough. You Yang family girls will not be able to enter my Chu Mansion."
"Originally, I thought that with your Yang family's rich wealth, even if you can't go through the front door, you can still get in through the back door. Now it seems that we think too highly of you."
After saying that, he grabbed the banknotes on the table and threw them directly into his arms:
"Your Yang family has no sincerity in marrying off your daughter, so we can't go on this trip in vain. These banknotes should be regarded as compensation from your Yang family, and we will pay for this errand."
After saying that, he turned around and left with the three Hanshan laymen.
"Sir, our original intention was not to say yes..."
Just as he was talking, he suddenly met Chu Mo's gnawing eyes, and Zhang Chenggui couldn't help but trembled:
"My lord, whatever you say is what you say."
