Chapter 718 Tang Mingde

He was less than six feet tall, wearing a brown jacket embroidered with symmetrical hydrangea patterns. The thickest part of his body was his waist, where several jade pendants were hanging.

Tang Mingde looked at Gao E and asked, "Are you the owner of Yue Garden?"

"I'm the manager of Yueyuan." Gao E saw that Tang Mingde was already sitting in the main seat in the main hall, with an attitude of being the master.

Tang Mingde patted the box beside him and said, "Here are 10,000 taels of gold notes. Use them to buy Yue Garden. Go and talk to your master."

He had inquired about the price of houses in He County, and these ten thousand taels of gold notes were enough to buy Yueyuan.

"Not for sale." Gao E said directly.

"Can you make the decision on this matter?" Tang Mingde was not angry.

He has traveled far and wide doing business and knows the principle that a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. He is not the kind of second-generation rich man who looks down on others, but he also has to be a little arrogant so as not to be looked down upon.

"Yes." Gao E was sure.

"Then I will discuss it with your master." Tang Mingde was confident.

"I'm the one who makes the decision." Gao E narrowed her eyes. "Isn't it rude to just decide where to sit when you're a guest at someone else's house?"

Tang Mingde sat upright with his hands on the armrests: "Just sit down for a while in advance."

"Are you worried that you won't live to see tomorrow?" Gao E sneered.

Tang Mingde looked at Gao E and said, "Young lady, please don't be so mean. I might be your next master."

"My last name is Gao. You'd better find out the situation in Yueyuan before you speak so arrogantly." Gao E gestured to Lianxin.

Lianxin walked straight over, and the guard beside Tang Mingde stepped forward to stop Lianxin.

Luo Dagang attacked directly, and Lianxin took another step forward to stand in front of Tang Mingde.

Tang Mingde was sitting in an armchair with nowhere to escape, and was lifted up by Lianxin by the scruff of the neck.

The remaining guards wanted to come to the rescue, but they didn't dare to do anything because their master was being held like this by a woman.

Tang Mingde broke out in a cold sweat, but soon calmed down and looked at Gao E politely: "What do you want?"

"Make room for your seat." Gao E said as she walked to the main seat but did not sit down.

Tang Mingde suddenly felt that he had underestimated this woman. She must be more than just a simple manager. "Let's talk it over. I won't buy Yue Garden anymore. I'm willing to pay a hundred taels of gold as an apology."

He is a man who can bend and stretch, and change his attitude according to the situation.

Gao E opened a box on the side, and inside were neatly arranged gold bills.

It was her first time seeing a gold note. She took one, looked at it, and then put it back in. She looked at Tang Mingde with a smile and said, "What if I want all of them?"

This man is too rich. He spent 10,000 taels of gold notes, which is equivalent to 100,000 taels of silver. Even if converted into cash, it would be more than 900,000 taels.

Tang Mingde's face turned pale for a moment, and he thought to himself, has he entered a den of thieves?

But it was only for a moment before he smiled playfully: "Then consider it as my filial piety to you."

"You are so rich." Gao E sighed and closed the box. "I can't bear your filial piety." She said and gestured to Lianxin.

Lianxin grabbed Tang Mingde and threw him out.

Tang Mingde rolled on the ground for a circle and a half before being helped up by his guards, and then the box of gold bills was thrown at his feet.

"Our Yue Garden is a decent place, but we're not selling it." Gao E walked to the threshold. "You'd better not have any crooked thoughts."

If the other party really had any bad intentions, Gao E could only say that she couldn't stop him from seeking death.

Tang Mingde looked at Gao E and found that she didn't even take the 12,000 taels of gold note seriously. What was the origin of this?

At this time, Xu Boyan came over with a group of yamen runners. Tang Mingde hurriedly stepped aside when he saw that they were wearing official uniforms.

No matter how rich he is, he has to keep his tail between his legs when meeting an official, especially one he doesn't know.

"What's the matter, Lord Xu?" Gao E glanced at Xu Boyan, wondering if he didn't sleep well.

Why does it feel like the whole person is black?

"I heard that there was trouble in Yueyuan, so I came to take a look." Xu Boyan said directly.

He would rather those people go straight to Yue Garden and make trouble, and then the princess's men will kill them without blinking an eye.

But Gao E is in charge of Yueyuan now, and if things get really out of hand, he will come over to take a look.

"Thank you, Lord Xu." Gao E nodded.

Tang Mingde thought that he was careless. Yueyuan was actually connected with the magistrate of He County. Wasn't he going to offend God?

"Master Xu." Tang Mingde bowed respectfully. "I'm just here to discuss business."

Xu Boyan glanced at Tang Mingde and then at Gao E: "What business did he come to discuss with you?"

"I want to buy Yueyuan." Gao E said directly.

Xu Boyan laughed when he heard this: "Does he think he's lived too long?"

Tang Mingde's heart trembled. Was this a threat to him?

"Lord Xu has misunderstood. I am here to check in, check in." Tang Mingde said immediately.

Gao E looked at Tang Mingde and felt that this man was more adaptable than Lu Hao.

Xu Boyan didn't bother to care about what he was trying to do. As long as Yue Yuan was fine, it was fine. "Don't act like you're easy to bully. Let those outsiders treat you like a soft persimmon."

Gao E sighed inwardly, wondering when those who are kind to others become easy to bully.

"I will remember Lord Xu's teachings." Gao E bowed.

Seeing Gao E like this, Xu Boyan felt a little better and turned to leave.

Tang Mingde wiped his sweat off his forehead, not daring to care about Gao E having him thrown out. He walked over to Gao E and bowed, "I am Tang Mingde. I apologize for any offense I've caused you before. I hope you can forgive me."

"Is it so easy to face the truth?" Gao E saw how polite and respectful he was.

"He who knows the times is a hero." Tang Mingde said shamelessly.

Gao E looked at Tang Mingde and saw that he had nothing in common with Junjie. "What do you want to do now?"

Tang Mingde hesitated for a moment: "I don't know your name yet."

"My surname is Gao." Gao E said directly.

"Boss Gao, do you know the person who organized the Qingtan Elegant Gathering in He County?" Tang Mingde said directly.

"What's the matter?" Gao E wondered if Tang Mingde would set his sights on the elegant gathering again.

"Of course it's about making money. As long as Boss Gao can introduce me, I will give 10% of the money I earn to Boss Gao." Tang Mingde raised his eyebrows.

Gao E didn't know why his greasy old eyebrows were raised. "Making money? Yaji can still make money?"

"Of course..." Tang Mingde stopped mid-sentence. "As long as Boss Gao is willing to recommend me, I will definitely not treat you unfairly."

Gao E didn't intend to make money from Yaji, she wanted fame: "Then you'd better not think about it."

"Just an introduction." Seeing Gao E say this, Tang Mingde knew that he must know the person who organized the gathering. "Isn't it nice to earn some free money?"

"Either tell me how to make money directly, or get out." Gao E pointed to the door.

Tang Mingde looked towards the door, thinking that the person who could host the gathering must be easy to find. He then bowed and said, "See you later."

After he finished speaking, he took his men away.

Gao E frowned. Can Yaji still make money?

Are they collecting sponsorship fees for holding events?

Are people nowadays so brand-conscious?
