Bian Yuer looked around and saw that it was Cao Cao's cousin, Cao Hong!
Cao Hong was a red-faced little fatty with a full beard. He had a fat head and big ears. He looked very lucky, but his rosacea made Cao Hong a little ugly!
Cao Hong's family was very rich and had many horses. Although his family was very rich, he was very stingy. In history, Cao Pi, as Cao Cao's successor, borrowed money from Cao Hong, but Cao Hong actually refused to lend it!
Cao Hong was stingy but also greedy. He was corrupt and bribed, and he was also a businessman. He had many shops in Xudu. When he came to inspect this time, he happened to see his wife, Bian Yu-er, reading fortunes here, so he stood at the side and observed.
When Cao Hong saw that Bian Yu-er had actually given the young Taoist priest ten taels of gold, he instantly felt a heartache. It would have been better if he had given the ten taels of gold to him. Why did he have to give it to this little liar!
Cao Hong was so stingy. Even if his family had tens of thousands of gold taels, he was still greedy for ten gold taels!
Bian Yu-er also told him about how Meng Yang had predicted that Cao Pi would be met with a bloody catastrophe. She even wanted Cao Hong to intercede for her and ask Cao Cao not to bring Cao Pi to Wan City!
However, Cao Hong knew Cao Cao's character. At the same time, he did not respect this sister-in-law who was born in a kabuki background. He also did not like this gloomy nephew Cao Pi."Madam, you know Eldest Brother's temper. I'm afraid that I won't be able to persuade him. Instead, I'll be reprimanded by him.”
Seeing that Cao Hong was unwilling to help, Bian Yuer could only pull Cao Pi away!
Cao Pi turned around and glared fiercely at Cao Hong.
He had long known that this uncle did not like him.
In history, after Cao Pi became the emperor, because Cao Hong did not lend him money, he used the matter of Cao Hong's slaves to almost kill Cao Hong.
How could Cao Hong know that Cao Pi would become the Emperor in the future? In his heart, Cao Cao's successor was Cao Ang!
Now that Cao Hong was thinking about the ten taels of gold and wanted to extort Meng Yang, he walked to Meng Yang's stall with his entourage and said arrogantly.
" Brat, do a divination for me. If you're right, I won't destroy your stall. If you're wrong, give me the ten taels of gold…"
Cao Hong then stared at Meng Yang expressionlessly, ready to take the ten taels of gold away without a word!
Although Cao Hong had at least tens of thousands of taels of gold, ten taels of gold should not have been in his eyes.
But to the greedy Cao Hong, mosquito meat was also meat!
Cao Hong was born in a wealthy family and had read fortunes many times before. He knew the tricks of these fortune-tellers. They either did not ask about it in advance, or they had a helper, or they just said something that he liked to hear!
Therefore, Cao Hong remained silent. He wanted to see what Meng Yang could say!
Meng Yang activated the Tianji Grimoire. He also knew the art of fortune-telling. With just a glance at Cao Hong, he could tell everything about him except his identity.
"You were born into a wealthy family. You have a lot of money and horses…"
Cao Hong couldn't help but twitch his lips." I thought you could say something. Anyone who looks at me will see that I'm this rich and noble…"
The surrounding onlookers nodded in agreement. Cao Hong did indeed look like a wealthy person. He had a fat head and big ears. In this chaotic world where everyone ate each other, to be able to look like this, he must have come from a wealthy family. He had never worried about money or food since he was young.
Not to mention a professional fortune-teller, anyone could tell Cao Hong's background.
Meng Yang changed the topic." Although you came from a wealthy family, you are stingy by nature. Although you have a wide range of friends, you have very few true friends. Some scholars look down on you…"
Cao Hong's face darkened.
He really wanted to refute, but he was indeed like this, and he had no way to refute.
Why did it feel like this young Taoist priest had personally witnessed the embarrassing things that he had done with those scholars?
In history, Sima Yi was well-read and knowledgeable. Cao Hong thought that he was lacking in talent and wanted Sima Yi to help him. Sima Yi was ashamed to associate with Cao Hong and pretended not to go with his crutch. Cao Hong hated Sima Yi and went to report to Cao Cao. Cao Cao summoned Sima Yi, and Sima Yi immediately threw away his walking stick and went to Cao Cao to serve him.
" Cut the crap," Cao Hong said through gritted teeth." Count how much property I have, how many wives and concubines I have, how many sons I have…"
Cao Hong had always hidden his wealth and was very stingy. No one knew how much wealth Cao Hong had.
Of course, Cao Hong wasn't the kind of person who didn't even know how much money he had. After all, he was a miser. He had to count how much money he had every once in a while before he could be at ease!
As for how many wives and concubines he had, Cao Hong had just taken in another concubine. In this day and age, it was very simple to take in a concubine. A palanquin carried into the house was enough. Many people did not know that they had taken in a concubine.
As for his own son, Cao Hong's concubine had just given birth to a son for a few months. Many outsiders did not know about that child.
Therefore, Cao Hong was certain that this young Taoist priest had no idea how much money he had, how many wives and concubines he had, or how many sons he had!
Cao Hong was eager to try and snatch the ten taels of gold from Meng Yang.
However, he did not know that he would lose so much face because of this fortune-telling!
