Chapter 179: A big appetite
"Why don't you care? In Hu's opinion, the authenticity of Tu Xiu's treasure is unknown, and there is too much uncertainty.
But what I can provide to Mr. Meng is definitely what you need.
This is a business that is stable and profitable. Should Mr. Meng refuse?"
Seeing Meng Zhao's unquestionable appearance, Hu Baiwan's face darkened and he was not led by his nose, saying,
"Mr. Meng, Tu Xiu's treasure has been circulated in the Jizhou area for many years. I don't know how many people have searched it, but they have never discovered it.
Even if you get that key, it doesn’t mean you will definitely get the treasure.
I hope you can think carefully and not refuse the opportunity to take yourself to the next level for the sake of illusory and unrealistic things."
Meng Zhao smiled and Hu Baiwan was purely a businessman’s mind. Businessmen are profitable and judge others by themselves.
No wonder he felt confident that he would agree to this matter, but unfortunately, he was wrong.
Meng Zhao stopped his hand and reached out to take out the Vajra Bodhi Sect hanging on his chest. Liang looked at Hu Baiwan and said,
"This is the Vajra Bodhi Sect obtained from Mr. Hu. I wonder if Mr. Hu can recognize this thing?"
Hu Baiwan looked at it and nodded slightly puzzledly.
"Yes, this thing is a treasure I received from a monk from the Western Regions six years ago. It is very precious. What does Mr. Meng mean to show this thing?"
"I want to tell Mr. Hu something that the noble prince did fall into my hands, and I did not kill him, nor did I abuse him, but instead provided him with delicious food and drink."
Hu Baiwan probably guessed this point, because there are several industries he left for Hu Yingming in the city, and the owner has recently changed, it should be Meng Zhao forced Hu Yingming to transfer it to him.
"Okay, since Mr. Hu agrees with this fact, then you must know that now people are in my hands and the initiative is in my hands.
Mr. Hu, whether to let go of the noble master is not about how much you are preparing to pay, but how much I want with you.
Do you agree with this relationship?”
This statement is already a bit aggressive, and Meng Zhao's previously modest and polite mask seemed to have been torn apart.
Although she still smiled slightly, she felt an indescribable sense of solemnity and toughness.
Hu Baiwan's face froze. He has been in power for so many years, and there are not many rich merchants and households who have fallen into his hands. There are many devastated households. No one has ever dared to talk to him so straightforwardly and toughly. It is simply a scorpion's poop, the only one.
Not to mention, Meng Zhao is just a junior, and he is simply ignorant of the world.
He laughed in anger and wanted to see what Meng Zhao was doing, and said coldly,
"Okay, just as Mr. Meng said, then, if I want to redeem my son, what do you want?"
Meng Zhao then calmed down his expression, took back the Vajra Bodhis, and said with a smile,
"That's right, Mr. Hu doesn't have to make things difficult. I have to be a relatively weak thing.
Over the years, Mr. Hu has made great contributions in Jizhou. In terms of official positions, both the military and political parties have people who are good friends with you, martial arts world, and many grassroots masters have close ties with you.
I want to have this list, and I don’t want you to have a silver or two, how about it, so sincere, right?”
Hu Baiwan was stunned at first, then suddenly realized, and finally turned into a crazy laugh, and the laughter came very far.
Even the opera singers on the stage on the first floor could hear it, and felt a little relieved.
Some people wondered, could they sing the wrong lyrics, otherwise why did the financial owner laugh so loudly?
In the distant stands, the four innate people also noticed this scene. Yang Jiu and Lu Zhong just felt inexplicable. However, Geng Zongfang and Kang Liang's faces darkened, approaching Hu Baiwan without any trace, as if they were ready to take action at any time.
There is no way. They have been with Hu Baiwan for many years and know this old friend very well. Whenever there is such a loud laugh, it means that Hu Baiwan is extremely angry, his reason is almost overwhelmed, and he will explode at any time.
Once Hu Baiwan really has any abnormal movement, Geng Zongfang and Kang Liang will have to protect him and leave immediately.
It’s not that they are afraid of Yang Jiu and Lu Zhong, but that if they really fight, they won’t take care of Hu Baiwan in a short time, and it is likely that Meng Zhao will succeed.
After all, Meng Zhao is different from the past. Since he designed to defeat Shi Siming, a disciple of Fire Dragon Cave, he has become a martial arts genius passed down by word of mouth in Nan'an. In terms of killing and fighting, it is definitely not something that Hu Baiwan, a pampered person who relies solely on resources to cultivate his practice.
Just when the two were about to drive Hu Baiwan away, they saw Hu Baiwan who should have lost control and calmed down again. They couldn't help but look at each other. It's so strange today. In the past, the God of Wealth would be 100% angry, so how could he think that nothing happened?
Meng Zhao didn't know what the two innate thoughts were in their hearts, but he could completely feel the anger accumulated in Hu Baiwan's chest.
It is a kind of anger that you work hard to cultivate and then grow fruits but are picked by others.
"It's really a young man since ancient times. I underestimated Mr. Meng. You are not trying to cut off the meat of my Hu family, but you just want the lifeblood of my Hu family. It's such a big appetite, and you're not afraid of eating too much!"
Hu Baiwan's true strength is actually reflected in two aspects when excluding the factor of backing.
One is financial resources and the other is interpersonal resources.
Needless to say, financial resources are all things, and the physical objects of money, while interpersonal resources are a kind of soft and invisible strength. To put it bluntly, how many friends are there.
Friends are not very accurate, they can help you with so many friends. That's all.
For anyone, the more useful friends they know, the greater the influence they have.
For example, if Hu Baiwan retreated from Nan'an, if he had the help of the friends he made in Jizhou, even if he was empty-handed and had no body, he could still do another career in a very short time.
On the contrary, if the people he knows are useless, only one hundred thousand or one million silver taels will be just a large fat pig, and they can be slaughtered.
Meng Zhao asked Hu Baiwan to make friends with the list of networks to transfer Hu Baiwan's past soft strength to him, so that he can instantly have interpersonal resources that are more than ten times stronger than the current second room.
If you have a handle, you can directly inherit the entire relationship and let the other party adjust from the relationship that belongs to Hu Baiwan to the relationship that belongs to Meng Zhao, that is, to change his master.
If you have no handle, Meng Zhao can go through the way Hu Baiwan makes friends with each other again, which saves you effort and the effect is good, because Hu Baiwan can give it to the other party, Meng Zhao can give it to it too, and Hu Baiwan can't give it to the other party, Meng Zhao can also give it to it.
This is no longer limited to Nan'an County, but is a big deal that can be directly built in Jizhou, laying the groundwork and making a secret line.
