Chapter 187: Sudden Sublimation
The truth was revealed, Boss Shen and the three of them were ashamed, Li Hao used a magical gem like Xianjing to make such a precious treasure for them, and they misunderstood him.
So many wealthy businessmen and magnates present looked at it, and they wanted to find a crack in the ground.
And the culprit who caused them to misunderstand is naturally Zheng Yingcai.
Although they didn't want to reprimand Zheng Yingcai directly, they still gave him several blank eyes after all.
"Lord Wang, I have been misled and gaffeed, I hope you will forgive me!" Boss Shen and the three of them walked up to Li Hao and bowed, apologizing respectfully.
"It's okay, it's okay, just solve the misunderstanding. In the future, we will have a lot of opportunities for cooperation, so don't get angry because of these little things. It's just that in the future, remember to calm down, and don't be used by some people with bad intentions! ”
When Li Hao said this, he deliberately pointed at Zheng Yingcai, and the mockery was overflowing.
Zheng Yingcai's face was red and white for a while, and he wanted to refute but didn't know what to say.
At this time, there was no place for him to stand at the auction banquet, and all the rich businessmen and magnates looked at him, looking at this son of a family who had always been arrogant.
Since he was a child, Zheng Yingcai has never encountered such an embarrassing situation, and he didn't just know how to deal with it for a while, and subconsciously wanted to leave.
Li Hao smiled and said: "Don't be in a hurry to leave, there is one last event in this banquet, you wait for me for a while, after the event is over, I still have something to discuss with you." ”
Zheng Yingcai was angry: "Why should I listen to you. ”
"In that case, you can leave if you want, but I warn you, if you leave Cuiweiju now, I promise you'll regret it!"
After speaking, Li Hao ignored him and walked straight to the center of the stage.
Zheng Yingcai stood in place and hesitated for a long time, but finally was afraid of Li Hao's words and sat back in the corner.
"Ladies and gentlemen, on behalf of Li Jiazhuang and Cuiweiju, I would like to thank you for your support for this auction. The so-called heavenly pregnancy artifact is obtained by those who have virtue and talent. I am a slight virtue and dare not sell artifacts in vain, so I decided to donate all the money from this auction to the victims of the floods in Hongzhou! ”
When the guests present heard Li Hao's words, the smiles on their faces disappeared instantly.
Not all businessmen are unwilling to lend a helping hand to the victims of the disaster, but there is no justification for this. It is impossible to make rich businessmen pay willingly. They need the right occasion, the right excuse, and the right leader.
Rich businessmen have money, not that there is something wrong with it. No one's money is blown by the wind, but earned by hard work. They can pay for it, but everyone must know who paid for it. They can tolerate that no one will thank them after the disaster has passed, but at least they must be empathetic and have a reputation for generosity, right?
It seems like a good occasion at the moment.
The Xianjing auction is very famous, and the people who come here to participate in the banquet are either rich businessmen or high-ranking officials and magnates, and they are all people with heads and faces. When they interact with this group of people, the most important thing is face. Just now, a few people overwhelmed the crowd to photograph Xianjing, and they have already earned enough reputation.
If at this time, if you are showing your kindness and kindness, won't you be able to label yourself as caring for the common people?
After Li Hao took the lead, the guests present couldn't help it and began to donate money one after another.
Li Hao is also very good at getting things done, and immediately set up a donation table.
The name of every guest who comes forward to donate money will be recorded and shouted out loud.
On the one hand, the vanity of everyone present was satisfied, and some businessmen who were ready to donate a little casually were embarrassed to take too little.
After all, the people here are all wealthy businessmen, and they don't see anyone who looks up and looks down. Others donate more than 100,000 taels, you donate a few thousand taels, and when you meet to eat together in the future, are you embarrassed to share the table with others?
Upstairs in the private room.
Li Shimin looked at the businessmen and high-ranking officials who were vying for donations, and his heart was very moved.
Unexpectedly, Li Hao, who has always been a child, is as careful as dust to such a point.
Thinking of Lijiazhuang's generosity, Datang suffered a once-in-a-century snow disaster, but it was Lijiazhuang who was the first to stand up and generously help Datang tide over the difficulties.
Li Hao had actually heard about the flood this time a long time ago, and the reason why he didn't take action was that he was waiting for today. He used a unique and gorgeous auction to attract almost all the wealthy businessmen and magnates in Chang'an City, and then donated money in front of them, which stimulated people's vanity and led to donations.
The soldiers are not bloody, so these iron roosters obediently pay for it.
With him, it is really a blessing for Datang.
"Father, you see that Li Hao is so concerned about the Tang Dynasty and is so gracious, we can't treat him badly in the future. Didn't he always want the right to mine quartz ore? I used this donation as a reason to promise him to put it! ”
Li Mingda sat next to Li Shiming and seized the opportunity to help Li Hao say good things.
During the days when he lived in Lijiazhuang before, Li Mingda was very aware of Li Hao's desire for quartz mines. Although he doesn't know the intention yet, he also knows very well that Li Hao will not harm Datang Sheji if he does anything.
Li Shimin smiled at the little head of this enchanted daughter, in fact, why didn't he want to hand over the quartz mining rights to Li Hao? But Li Hao is a perverse person, and he doesn't care about the feelings of powerful and high-ranking officials at all, and now he has offended many people.
Now the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are all looking at him, looking for Li Hao's handle. If Li Shimin openly treats Li Hao preferentially at this time, it will inevitably attract criticism and lead to social chaos.
Besides, Li Hao also said before that he would find an excuse for Li Shimin to hand over the power to mine quartz ore to him, since this is the case, Li Shimin will naturally not think of a way on his own, and everything will be arranged by Li Hao. I believe he will be able to handle this matter properly.
I don't know when it started, Li Shimin's trust in Li Hao has reached a very high level, and it seems that if he is handed over to something, he can not worry.
The daughter who is watching around me is also growing up day by day.
Li Shiming suddenly had an idea, it seems that marrying Li Mingda to Li Hao is also a good idea, in this way, not only can Li Mingda find a wishful man, but also can completely turn Li Hao, a god, into his own person.
As long as he is there, why worry that Datang is not prosperous?
The more Li Shimin thought about it, the happier he became, and he seemed to have seen the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty and the peace of the country and the people in the near future.
During the period when Li Shimin was thinking about the future, the donation activity also ended. Li Hao personally sent all the guests out of Cuiweiju, and then took Zheng Yingcai to the second floor.
"Li Hao, I warn you not to play tricks, what do you want to say, hurry up, I don't have so much time to spend with you!"
Zheng Yingcai followed behind Li Hao and said with a wary face.
"Why are you in such a hurry to go back? Are you ready to accept the wrath of the Zheng family? Li Hao teased without looking back.
Zheng Yingcai's face turned half blue, he had just come to Chang'an for less than two months, and he lost the pottery competition, which made the Zheng family lose the order to cooperate with the imperial court, and also discredited the Zheng family's pottery. Now that he has lost his adult at the auction banquet, the reputation of the Zheng family for a hundred years has also been affected.
If you go back at this time, you will not be condemned by your family.
But isn't Li Hao to blame for all this? If it weren't for him, the Zheng family would have won nine out of ten in this pottery competition. If we hadn't lost the game, we wouldn't have had any of these things in the future.
