"It really is..." Chief Steward Su took a deep breath and said to everyone, "It really is... almost an empty box."
At first, Chief Steward Su didn't believe it.
After he made the announcement, he put down the empty box and left.
He allowed everyone to leave the yard and go back to their rooms to get coins.
But……
No one left the yard.
And finally…
Fundraising...
Chief Steward Su was angry and aggrieved, but more of a despair and shock.
He never dreamed that he could only raise such a small amount of funds.
Just when he reached the door, he happened to meet Su Luo telling a story.
When Su Luo told this story, Chief Steward Su didn't know whether he should come in or not, because it was too embarrassing.
It’s a pity that I made such a promise before.
"How much?" Mrs. Qin was most curious.
Chief Steward Su glanced at Madam Qin and poured out all the Xuanyuan coins.
Everyone gathered together and counted them.
Um.
"Three hundred Xuanyuan coins..."
Everyone: “…”
Su Muyang: "Why are there only 300 coins? How could that be? Chief Steward Su, are you sure that all these people have raised the money?"
Chief Steward Su nodded silently.
Su Muyang: “…”
He thought about what he had said before.
He had confidently told Su Luo that he could raise at least 10 million, but reality slapped him in the face.
Chief Steward Su was indignant: "They've embezzled 50 million Xuanyuan coins over the years! And yet, when we went to collect donations, they only donated 300 coins!"
"I specifically told you that!"
"I put the box in a secret room, and everyone took turns going in. No one would know how much anyone had donated, but this is what they gave me!"
Su Luo could imagine the anger and frustration of Chief Steward Su.
This is purely a case of too high expectations and too much disappointment.
On the contrary, Su Luo herself had no expectations from the beginning, so there was no question of disappointment.
Seeing Su Dazonghe like this, Su Luo asked with a smile: "So, what does Su Dazonghe think of these people now?"
"Kill! They all deserve to be killed!" Chief Steward Su said angrily!
Su Luo thought about it and said, "How about giving them another chance?"
Chief Steward Su looked at Su Luo in surprise.
Su Luo: "Killing people is not a good thing after all. Although they have gone too far now, they are not yet at the point of being executed. We can give them one last chance."
Su Muyang: "Wh, what opportunity?"
Su Luo: "Since fundraising failed, then let's ask for it openly."
Su Luo looked at the chief steward Su: "Don't you have a list of everyone's embezzlement?"
Chief Steward Su nodded.
Su Luo: "Just ask them for the amount written on the book. If they give you enough, we can spare their lives. If they give you less...it's their own decision not to live, and it has nothing to do with us."
"In fact, it's a bargain for them." Su Luo said to Su Muyang, "The amount they have embezzled over the years is so huge that even if they were to lend it out, they would still be able to make a lot of money. As long as they have the capital, it's a bargain for them."
Su Muyang nodded.
Chief Steward Su nodded solemnly to Su Luo, then turned and left again.
Mrs. Qin frowned: "Will they give money?"
Su Muyang's face was so painful from being hit just now that he didn't dare to say anything. He stared at Su Luo intently.
Su Luo smiled faintly and said with certainty: "No."
"Why?" Mrs. Qin was curious.
Su Luo: "People die for money and birds die for food. It's as simple as that. They won't admit it until death is imminent."
