"Pay first! Pay in front of all the gamblers and the people! Then investigate! Unless he's related to the royal family, he can be made to spit out any extra money!"
As he spoke, Guo Li's eyes were filled with viciousness, revealing his mean and ungrateful image.
After the Guo family's subordinates conveyed the master's order to the manager of Haokefang, the manager could only go to the accounting office in a cold sweat to get the banknotes.
Although there was a Rongchang Bank in the capital, they had never been able to find out who was behind it. Therefore, for safety reasons, most of the Guo family's wealth was distributed across various industries.
Just like the most profitable Hao Ke Fang in Jiuzhou Continent, 40% of the wealth is sent to the Guo family headquarters every month, and the remaining 60% is kept in the accounting office and secret room of Hao Ke Fang.
Although 410,000 taels of gold is a lot, it can still be collected by collecting all the gold and silver stored in several gambling houses in the capital.
But when the manager entered the accounting office, he was scared out of his wits.
The accounting office was robbed!
Despite the protection of countless secret guards, the accounting office was actually robbed!
Ignoring his heart that was about to jump out of his chest, the butler immediately ordered someone to open the door of the secret room.
Looking at the empty secret room without even a screw left, not only the manager but also the secret guard fell to the ground with weak legs.
The steward rushed into the room like a madman and ordered the dealers to check the money at each table, but it was still empty. The entire Hao Ke Fang had disappeared without a trace of silver.
The housekeeper immediately ordered people to surround the gambling house and report to the police as soon as possible.
Everyone stayed here originally because they wanted to see with their own eyes the steward hand over 410,000 taels of gold to Mr. Qian. However, the steward had just agreed to go to the accounting office to get the silver, but the next moment he rushed out and said he would report to the police. He also ordered people to guard the place and not let anyone leave.
Even though the person in charge has explained that Hao Ke Fang was robbed, who would believe it?
"Sir, the thief at Hao Ke Fang was your business. What does it have to do with us? Are you using this as an excuse to shirk your responsibility?"
Xiao Xuanxuan sat on the chair with an innocent and depressed look, looking at the manager with an expression that said, "Just do what you want, everyone knows about your little business."
Because of the huge loss of money, the manager's face was already extremely ugly at this moment. After hearing what Xiao Xuanxuan said, he instantly exploded with anger.
"Mr. Qian, our Haokefang has a strong foundation and background. If you say that, we can sue you for defamation!"
"Oh my, I'm so scared! Even if you report me to the government, you won't be able to get a penny back. I have countless witnesses, right, brothers?"
"right!"
The gamblers in the casino blushed and immediately supported Young Master Qian. Who had let this high roller casino take away so much of their money? Now that they could help Young Master Qian, it would make them feel better.
"Hey... Manager, isn't it just about 410,000 taels of gold? Since you're a wealthy family, why don't you just give us the money? What's the point of locking us up here?
Even if you wanted to kill us to silence us, there are already so many people watching outside. You won't be able to get away with it, right? Since killing us to silence us is useless, then no matter how long you keep us here, you still have to pay us the same amount. Why bother? Why bother?
As soon as Xiao Xuanxuan finished speaking, everyone looked at the manager with contempt.
