Chapter 947: Chapter 947
"Brother Ming, are you leaving now?" Chen Cang quickly followed.
"I’m going to set up the Tianzi suite first. Even if I rent the room to him, I must make some adjustments." Tang Ming waved his hand without looking back. After all, he is an Eight-star Martial Master, and if he dares to cultivate in the Tianzi suite, then in the future...
Chen Cang and Xin Badao glanced at each other, unsure of what Tang Ming intended.
An hour later, in a private room facing the hall at the Moon Charm Bar, through the glass, one could see the lights shining downstairs and the singer performing on stage.
Tang Ming sat on the sofa in the private room, watching the mysterious person in the black robe beside Mo Hongsheng with great interest.
Chen Cang looked nervous, like sitting on pins and needles. This was the mysterious expert from the video, an Eight-star Martial Master, more powerful than the two masters combined. If a fight really breaks out, he wonders if Brother Ming can handle it.
"Have you seen enough?" Mo Hongsheng picked up his wine glass and said blandly: "This is Mo Liuye, an elder from our Mo Family. He is not good with words, so I will speak on his behalf. Any problems with that?"
"No problem, as long as the person is here." Tang Ming withdrew his gaze with a smile and thought to himself, "So this mysterious person in the black robe is from the Mo Family. That means the other two are from the Ming Group. The Ming Group really has an impressive aura to be able to dispatch two Eight-star Martial Masters; impressive."
"If that’s the case, then name your price." Mo Hongsheng asked directly.
"Wait a minute." Tang Ming interrupted Mo Hongsheng, smiling as he said, "Since this elder is here, shouldn’t we discuss the compensation issue before talking business?"
"What compensation issue?" Mo Hongsheng slightly frowned, feeling a sense of foreboding.
"Naturally, it’s compensation for this elder’s sabotage at the Jun Tianhao Hotel. That should be reasonable, right?" Tang Ming looked at Mo Hongsheng righteously.
"How do you want to be compensated?" Mo Hongsheng glanced at Mo Liuye, feeling helpless, knowing that Tang Ming was going to leverage this issue.
"I’m a straightforward person; I don’t cheat people easily." Tang Ming rubbed his hands earnestly.
Hearing these words, Chen Cang’s mouth twitched. If Brother Ming isn’t considered cheating, then every swindler in the world is a living saint; none are as good at exploiting people as he is.
"This elder damaged quite a lot of things when he sneaked into the hotel. Chen Cang, why don’t you list what was damaged and how much compensation is needed?" Tang Ming leaned back on the sofa, prompting Chen Cang to speak.
"Oh, oh, oh, four sofas, two walls, one floor-to-ceiling window, and two valuable paintings were damaged, totaling..." After babbling, Chen Cang gritted his teeth and said, "Totaling five million."
"Alright, besides the room rental fee, we are willing to pay five million in compensation." As soon as Chen Cang finished speaking, Mo Hongsheng decisively agreed.
"Huh?" Chen Cang’s mouth twitched slightly. Actually, the total damages weren’t even ten thousand; he quoted five million to cheat, expecting Mo Hongsheng to haggle. Unexpectedly, Mo Hongsheng agreed right away; what’s this about? Did I underquote?
Tang Ming was also surprised that Mo Hongsheng was so straightforward, which made him regard Mo Hongsheng more highly. In an absolutely passive situation, not bargaining is the wisest move, as protesting would make one lose face.
"Now can you tell me how much it will cost for you to rent us the room?" Mo Hongsheng asked Tang Ming with a smiling face.
"The damages are settled, but the compensation for injuries hasn’t been discussed yet." Tang Ming coughed twice and spoke slowly.
"What do you mean, compensation for injuries?" Mo Hongsheng was slightly taken aback. He had anticipated compensation problems; five million wasn’t a big deal to him. If it could rectify Mo Liuye’s previous mistakes, it would be worth it. But it seemed Tang Ming was not going to stop here!
"Elder, after you sneaked into our hotel, you injured a VIP guest in that suite. You do remember, don’t you?" Tang Ming looked at Mo Liuye and asked with a smile.
Mo Liuye nodded, acknowledging he attacked Ling Shengtian that day.
"I’m glad you admit it. I won’t extort you. This VIP is worth two hundred million." Tang Ming nodded and said with a smile, "But since his life was spared, I won’t make you pay the full amount. Just one hundred million as compensation, shouldn’t be an issue, right?"
"One hundred million?" Mo Hongsheng’s mouth twitched as he glanced at Mo Liuye in frustration; damn, who did we beat up? To require such a high compensation?
"Deal." Mo Liuye curtly agreed, resigning to pay in order to return to the cultivation room.
"Alright, since the elder agrees, I’ll pay." Mo Hongsheng nodded.
"Very well. Besides the esteemed guest, my two Eight-star Martial Masters were also severely injured by the elder. Considering each is an Eight-star Martial Master, requesting 100 million each shouldn’t be excessive, right?" Tang Ming continued.
"I did injure them, but they also injured me badly. Why should I compensate them?" Hearing this, Mo Liuye objected, pulling back his hood to reveal his wrinkled and fierce face, staring angrily at Tang Ming.
"Whoa, scared the hell out of me." Chen Cang exclaimed in fear, quickly leaning towards Tang Ming, shocked by Mo Liuye’s appearance.
"Ha, the elder’s statement is quite unreasonable." Tang Ming was very composed, looking playfully at Mo Liuye: "I sent those two Eight-star Martial Masters to protect the esteemed guest. You suddenly barged in and injured my guest, so they naturally fought back. Was it I who asked you to make trouble on our grounds?"
"You..." Mo Liuye was at a loss for words, unable to refute.
"Elder, we’re over-budget." Mo Hongsheng quickly whispered to Mo Liuye: "Our Mo Family can currently only provide one hundred million in available funds; this price is far too high for me to make a decision."
"Don’t worry, I’ll have the Hidden Mo Family and Poison Widow allocate funds for you." Mo Liuye said through clenched teeth. If he had known infiltrating the cultivation room would cost several billion, there’s no way he would have done it. Now, he wished he had the resolve to kill Shura.
However, he had his own plans. Although being exploited by Tang Ming now, it’s because he urgently needed that cultivation room. Once he breaks through to Nine-star cultivation, he won’t fear those two Eight-star Martial Masters anymore, and he can force Tang Ming to return all the money he extorted, doubled.
"Hidden Mo Family." With his keen hearing, Tang Ming clearly heard the exchange between Mo Hongsheng and Mo Liuye. He finally knew what powerful organization was backing Mo Hongsheng, and checking the details of the Hidden Mo Family afterward should be useful for uncovering their true schemes.
