Chapter 266: No Refund
Wing Hing Casino - Backyard
The shopkeeper of Yongxing Gambling House looked anxiously at the men in black clothes standing in front of him, and said cautiously: "Are you here for something?"
The leading man in black had no expression on his face, and said in a cold voice, "Where is the account book for the transactions between Yongxing Gambling House and the lords of the court?"
The shopkeeper of Yongxing Casino immediately nodded, "It's just under the floor of the villain's bedroom. The villain will go get it right away."
With that said, the shopkeeper of Yongxing Gambling Shop went to the bedroom to fetch the ledger and handed it over to the man in black.
The man in black at the head flipped through a few pages to confirm the authenticity, held the ledger in his hand, looked at the shopkeeper of Yongxing Casino and said, "You immediately use the fastest way with the person who knows about this transaction in Yongxing Casino. Leave the capital as quickly as possible, the farther you are from the capital, the better."
The shopkeeper of Yongxing Casino was stunned and said: "Didn't the limelight in Beijing just pass? Has the situation changed?"
The leading man in black said: "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
The shopkeeper of Yongxing Gambling Shop said: "However, there are several adults in the gambling shop who have saved tens of thousands of taels of silver, what should we do?"
The man in black said: "Tens of thousands of taels of silver are enough for the rest of your life, right?"
The shopkeeper of Yongxing Gambling House immediately widened his eyes. What does this lord mean, that the money belongs to him?
Tens of thousands of taels of silver, not to mention the second half of my life, will not be spent in the next eight lifetimes!
The man in black looked at the shopkeeper of Yongxing Casino with an excited face and said: "Don't get too excited, within two days, can you and the rest of the people in the know withdraw from the capital?"
The shopkeeper of Yongxing Casino immediately nodded and said: "Don't worry, my lord, this matter is only known to the villain in the entire casino, and it will not be heard by others."
The leading man in black murmured, "So you are the only one who knows."
The shopkeeper of Yongxing Casino said: "At the beginning, the adults also said that the fewer people who know about this matter, the better. The villain is naturally knowledgeable..."
Halfway through the talk, the shopkeeper of Yongxing Casino suddenly felt a sudden burning sensation, accompanied by a piercing pain.
When the shopkeeper of Yongxing Casino looked down, a dagger suddenly appeared in Own's abdomen.
"Why...why...what?"
The leading man in black said indifferently: "Only the dead will keep secrets forever."
After the man in black said these words, the shopkeeper of Yongxing Casino fell down straight, his eyes widened.
After erasing the last hidden danger, the leading man in black said: "You guys throw him in the dry well in the courtyard and seal it with stones. As for when Jingzhao Mansion finds this person's body, it has nothing to do with us."
Two men also dressed in black lifted the body and threw it into the dry well.
The leading man in black said: "Then as long as the ledger is burned, the task will be considered complete."
As he said that, the leading man in black took out a fire pocket and prepared to burn the last piece of evidence.
As long as the ledger is gone and the insider is dead, even if the imperial court finds out that Yongxing Gambling has extra tens of thousands of taels of silver for no reason, if it doesn’t match the accounts, it will only and can only be punished on Yongxing Gambling, at most one The crime of concealing income and silver taels and attempting to evade taxes has nothing to do with my own adults.
At this moment, a hand suddenly stretched out from the side, stopping him.
The leading man in black frowned: "Second, why did you stop me?"
The second child who was also dressed in black said, "Dage, only the dead keep secrets. The only ones in the world who know about this deal are us, except for a few adults in the court."
When the boss heard what the second child said, his body froze suddenly: "You mean..."
The second child said: "People who know the secret but have no use value will be eliminated. If the account book is gone, we will lose the final value. It is better to hold our life in our own hands than entrust our lives to others."
an hour later
Xianwang Mansion
"Dead?" King Xian put down his teacup and looked at the shadow guard commander directly in front of him, "How did you die?"
Commander Xuan Jia said: "I don't know, the shadow guard went secretly to Yongxing Casino to investigate this morning according to the order of the prince, but he only found the body of the shopkeeper of Yongxing Casino in the dry well in the courtyard. As expected, Yongxing Casino really has a big problem."
"The action is fast." Xian Wang murmured: "Go down, by the way, withdraw the shadow guards, Yongxing Casino doesn't need to investigate."
Commander Xuanjia bowed and said, "Yes."
Andingbo Mansion
"Snapped!"
Xiao Ruxue pushed the cards in front of him, then stretched out two small white hands to Xu Qing and said, "I won again! Lose money! Lose money!"
Xu Qing sighed, picked up a copper plate from his side and put it in Xiao Ruxue's hand.
This card can't be played anymore!
Xu Qing wondered more than once whether Xiao Ruxue cheated with her own wife, but she didn't find any clues. It's really strange, does God only think about good-looking people like this?
But, to be honest, he looks pretty good too!
Xuan'er has won two games!
And he, apart from winning a few rounds when they were not very familiar with the rules when they just started playing, he has never won since then! It can be said that there is no playing experience!
At this moment, Xiao Ruxue's voice came again: "Xu Qing Xu Qing, shuffle the cards!"
Xu Qing covered her head with her hands: "Don't talk, I want to be quiet."
At this moment, news came from the fireworks shop that Mo Heng had made something!
There is finally good news these two days!
Naturally, Xu Qing did not go to the fireworks shop, but came to a shooting range that Xu Qing had planned long ago.
As far as Xu Qing is concerned, this is the new project of the State Chamber of Commerce, the archery hall under construction.
The plan is like this. After the completion, as long as you pay a certain fee, you can come to the archery hall to experience the feeling of archery, and there will be professional coaches, including learning and meeting. If you can't learn it, you can keep teaching, but there is no refund.
The place where the money is paid is in Anding County, and the place where the money is refunded is Zhou Guoguo.
As long as you don't get your money back, you can talk about anything.
This is the service tenet of the National Chamber of Commerce!
Xu Qing took the firecracker handed over by Mo Heng and held it in his hand.
It is said to be a firecracker, but it actually looks like an iron pipe covered with a layer of wood skin.
Mo Heng said: "The mechanism at the trigger point is connected with flint, and it is filled with a large amount of gunpowder. As long as the gunpowder is activated, the lead bullets inside can be shot out. Unless you are wearing armor, you will most likely be unable to defend against it. Even if you are not killed by lead bullets, you will be burned by the heat attached to it."
"But it can only be used once. After it's used up, it's just a stick of fire. It's not as good as a hand crossbow that can be reloaded quickly. Dean, can this thing really be used for self-defense?"
Xu Qing said: "Believe me, the limit of this thing is far beyond that."
With that said, Xu Qing was about to step back outside the line, aiming at a target a hundred paces away and then shooting.
At this moment, Mo Heng said: "Court, Dean."
Xu Qing, who was retreating, asked, "What's the matter?"
Mo Heng said: "This thing only has a range of less than twenty steps, and the maximum power can be exerted within ten steps. If you run so far, you won't be able to hit the target."
"What? Less than twenty steps?!"
