After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!-Chapter 951 - Rich and Powerful
951 Rich and Powerful
He Ning could not deny that what Qiao Mei said was true. Even if he bought thousands of ginsengs from other sellers, they could not compare to one ginseng from Qiao Mei.
That was how confident Qiao Mei was in herself. Moreover, He Ning could not find any loopholes or lapses in Qiao Mei’s dealings at all. If this one million dollars was put into the bank, she could make tens of thousands of dollars every year. Qiao Mei would be able to survive on the bank interest alone for the rest of her life. He Ning would then become of no value to her in the future. To her, the earlier he died, the less harm he would do to the world.
Ginseng was different from other things. It took time to gather the essence of the sun and moon. The more aged it was, the more valuable it would be. He Ning could not possibly go to Foshan Village to grow ginseng himself just to spite Qiao Mei. By the time the ginseng matured, he would already be dead!
Right now, he must find at least one of Qiao Mei’s weaknesses and grasp it tightly. Only then could he have a say over this and take control of Qiao Mei.
“Alright… You need to wait a while,” He Ning said, swallowing his anger.
!!“We have to sign a new agreement for the next ginseng. Based on the way you return me the money, I’m really worried that you won’t be able to pay me the rest. In the beginning, we agreed that you would give me 600,000 dollars first once I come to the capital, but look at the amount you’ve given me so far. It’s definitely not 600,000 dollars,” Qiao Mei said disdainfully.
He Ning just did not want to give all the money to Qiao Mei at one go. This way, he would not have the chance to come to Qiao Mei’s house to ask for a meal. However, Qiao Mei seemed to have already seen through his intentions.
How could it be so difficult to freeload a meal! Could it be that he was being too obvious?
“I understand.” He Ning looked at Qiao Mei expressionlessly, but he was still wondering if he would be able to stay for a meal later.
Everyone looked at one another for a long time. Finally, Xia He could not help but say, “Mr. He, is there anything else?”
“Nothing else,” He Ning said.
“Then please go back, Mr. He. We won’t send you off,” Xia He held back her temper and said politely.
He Ning stared straight at Qiao Mei and asked, “Aren’t you going to ask me to stay for a meal?”
The corners of Qiao Mei’s mouth twitched slightly. This person was really way too direct and obvious nowadays. He used to be more subtle about what he wanted.
“There’s no more food at home. We have so many mouths to feed and there’s not enough food. How can there be any leftovers? You have come at the wrong time.” Li Gui looked at He Ning in disdain, her eyes filled with contempt and scorn for him.
He was from such a successful family, so why would he always come to their house to ask for a meal? Was it their family asking the He family for help or the He family asking them for help? He acted as if Qiao Mei was the one who owed him something and he had no sense of propriety at all.
He Ning had no choice but to leave Qiao Mei’s house dejectedly. The attendant had thought that he could take a nap in the car and did not expect He Ning to come out so quickly. He had such a shock that he quickly got out of the car and opened the car door.
“Sir, slow down…” the attendant said respectfully.
He Ning glared at his attendant, then turned around to look at Qiao Mei’s main door before getting into the car glumly. The Xia family’s spies, who were hiding nearby, noted down everything that happened and quickly went to send a report to Xia Mao.
No matter how much Li Gui liked money, she did not even look at the money case that He Ning had brought.
“Qiao Mei, how much money does he still owe you? If it’s not a lot, let’s just forget it. It’s really dangerous to let such a person come to our house. Our family doesn’t lack money,” Li Gui said fearfully.
Qiao Mei raised one finger silently.
Li Gui laughed happily and said, “Is it 10,000 dollars! Then let’s forget it! 10,000 dollars is not a lot of money. If I make more popcorn, you can get 10,000 dollars in half a year. If it’s just 10,000 dollars… then let’s forget about it.”
Xia He looked at Li Gui with admiration in her eyes. That was an amount of 10,000 dollars that she was talking about. The previous Li Gui would split hair over every cent she spent, always concerned over whether the money was spent meaninglessly and worthlessly.
Compared to money, Qiao Mei’s health was more important. At this critical moment, she could not afford to have any accidents. If He Ning came to say something nasty and cause Qiao Mei’s emotions to fluctuate too much, she might even go into premature labor.
Money was just a worldly possession and one should not care too much about it.
