Chapter 401: No mercy
Not only Qian Diewu, but everyone saw Manager Xu approaching anxiously. Even if they didn't ask, they could tell that something was going on just by looking at him.
Jimo Wuxuan showed a hint of anger on his brows, feeling dissatisfied with this sudden situation. When Manager Xu walked in, he asked coldly: "What's the matter?"
Manager Xu was out of breath because he walked in too much haste, but because he was in a hurry to say something, he made his sentences choppy, "Master... Fortress Master, it's not good, a thief broke into the accounting room, and it was rummaged inside.
It was so messy that even the guard guarding the accounting room was killed."
"Didn't you say everything is calm? When did Mo Castle's defense become so vulnerable?" In less than a month, the accounting room was sneaked into twice. If the defenses continue to be this weak, Mo Castle will sooner or later
It will be moved down.
"I..." Manager Xu was speechless. He just lowered his head and said nothing, feeling guilty for his dereliction of duty.
Lin Miaozhu saw that her uncle was being reprimanded. Although she wanted to help him, she didn't dare to help and didn't know how to help because the person who was reprimanding him was the Lord of the Fortress. She was also afraid of this person!
When Jimo Wuxuan got angry, no one dared to say a word, even Jimo Wuming and the Three Gentlemen were no exception.
Qian Diewu looked at everyone and felt that the atmosphere was very bad. Seeing that no one dared to speak, she stepped in to adjust the situation and said, "Wuxuan, don't be angry yet. Let's go to the accounting room first to see if there is anything important missing."
Something. To be able to break into the accounting room so quietly, the person coming must be unfathomable. I can’t blame Mr. Xu for this. Didn’t someone steal something from the accounting room last time?”
"I didn't blame him, I was just angry at myself for being incompetent." Facing Qian Diewu, Jimo Wuxuan's anger subsided a little and he said what he really wanted to be angry about.
If he were stronger, he could prevent a small number of people from coming to Mo Castle to commit crimes.
"You have to know that you are a human being, not a god. Human abilities are limited. That's why there is such a saying, 'There is strength in numbers'. As long as we work together as a family, there is no enemy that we cannot deal with. Don't stop
Don’t think about such troublesome things, let’s go to the accounting room first. Even if something is really lost, it doesn’t matter. Don’t forget, not many people here can understand the numbers used in the account books.”
With Qian Diewu's comfort, Jimo Wuxuan felt much better. He nodded and walked towards the accounting room, his heart full of emotion.
Diewu is right, he is a human, not a god, and his abilities are limited no matter how hard he is, so he needs the help of friends, family, and brothers.
As soon as Jimo Wuxuan left, Manager Xu breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his sleeves, breathed out lightly, "Huh..."
I haven't seen the Lord of the Castle so angry for a long time.
Lin Miaozhu came over and comforted Manager Xu, "Uncle, it's okay. Didn't the Lord of the Castle just say that he didn't blame you?"
"Don't worry, I'm fine. Maybe I'm old and not very useful anymore, haha..." Manager Xu laughed at himself. He didn't take what he was scolded just to heart, but was worried about the future of Castle Mo.
There are so many people who can easily break into Mo Castle, and it's hard to guard against them. If the other party comes in and hits hard, who knows what will happen?
Jimo Wuming also came over, respecting Manager Xu's attitude a lot, and respectfully called him 'uncle', "Uncle, my eldest brother is not really angry. Please relax. Even if he is really angry, there is still me."
Where’s the sister-in-law!”
"Second Castle Master..." Manager Xu was still not used to being called 'uncle' by people other than Lin Miaozhu, so he was extremely surprised and stared blankly at Jimo Wuming.
Jimo Wuming knew what Mr. Xu was surprised about, and smiled: "Miaomiao is my wife now, and you are her uncle, so naturally you are also my uncle."
"Second Castle Master, this, this is impossible!"
"What can't be done?"
"You are the Lord of the Second Fortress, I am just the general manager."
"Do you think we are like those people who care about status?" Jimo Wuming smiled freely and stopped talking to Mr. Xu about this matter. Instead, he took Lin Miaozhu and walked towards the accounting room. "The eldest brother and sister-in-law have gone far.
, let’s follow quickly.”
"They are going to the accounting room, can I go too?" Lin Miaozhu was a little nervous and did not dare to go to that accounting room. The accounting room must be a forbidden area and no one is allowed to enter without permission.
"You are now the second lady of Mo Castle. Remember, you are the second lady. Of course you can go to the accounting room. But it's better not to go there if you have nothing to do. There are agencies there, and I don't want you to get hurt."
"Does that require the approval of the Lord of the Castle?"
"I agree. That's the big castle master. You should call him big brother."
"This...I can't call you." She didn't even dare to say anything in front of Jimo Wuxuan, let alone those names.
"What can't be called? He is my eldest brother and your eldest brother."
"But I'm just afraid of him."
"Don't rush this, you will get used to it gradually." Not to mention her, even he himself is sometimes afraid of his elder brother, especially when he is angry. The only person in the world who is not afraid of his elder brother is probably his sister-in-law.
Just one.
"Well, I will try my best." Lin Miaozhu remembered what Qian Diewu said, no matter how scared you are, you must face it bravely, because they are a family, how can any family be afraid of their family members?
Manager Xu looked at Jimo Wuming's retreating figure, and the name Jimo Wuming had just called him kept echoing in his mind. Uncle, this title sounded so kind and heart-warming, and the eldest lady had just helped him out,
They all made him feel extremely comforted.
When he lives to his age, he doesn't ask for any fame or fortune, he just wants to be accompanied by some warm-hearted people around him, and that's enough.
He likes this home very much, but there are many people who want to destroy it, and there are many hidden dangers.
Qian Diewu followed Jimo Wuxuan to the accounting room. She could see the killed Hu Yuan at the door. She mourned for them for a while, and then walked in. What she saw was a mess. All the account books inside seemed to have been turned over.
However, some of them were torn, which showed that the visitor was very impatient when looking for things, but she still didn’t know what the other person was looking for, so she asked: “Wuxuan, what are you hiding?
Baby, so many people have ideas?"
"Besides money, what other treasures can I, Jimo Wuxuan, have?" Jimo Wuxuan said with a cold smile. He bent down, picked up one of the torn account books, and flipped through it casually. His brows were full of
Displeasure.
This was an account book that he and Die Wu spent several days copying. Although it was not an important thing, he was very angry that it was destroyed like this.
"Then why do thieves come to the counting room again and again to look for things? Do they think you put all the money in the counting room?"
"They just want to get the account book of the bank, because the account book details the storage location and amount of the silver. As long as they get that account book, they can get the silver in the bank." Jimo Wuxuan picked it up again.
He picked up an account book, sorted it out a little, looked at it, and said sarcastically: "Do they really think that Jimo Wuxuan's money is so easy to grab? It's ridiculous."
"That's right." Jimo Wuming crossed his arms and said a few words sarcastically, "These robbers and bandits are really shameless in trying to seize other people's things. They also don't think about it, is our Mo Castle so easy to rob?
?”
Qian Diewu had no intention of mocking the 'robber and bandit', and asked worriedly: "Wuxuan, can you quickly see if the account book is still there?"
"Isn't it in my hand?" Jimo Wuxuan moved his eyes to the account book in his hand, smoothing the torn and wrinkled pages in front, with an evil smile on his face.
If it weren't for the special words of Diewu Cult, the account book must have fallen into the hands of thieves.
"What, this is that important account book? Why do you put such a valuable thing so casually? You should find a secret place to hide it." Qian Diewu was surprised and took the account book over to look at it without looking at it.
Fortunately, I was shocked when I saw it.
"Oh my god, last time you took me to Anyou Pavilion, it opened my eyes enough. I couldn't imagine...how do you make money?"
No wonder Mo Castle can stand so firmly and is not even afraid of the imperial power. The wealth they possess can really subvert the world.
With so much wealth, it would be strange not to be spied on!
"It's been like this for ten years without knowing it." Jimo Wuxuan said it indifferently. He didn't feel much about the money without life and emotion. However, the nursing home who died at the door made him feel a little sad. Seeing Manager Xu coming
, explained: "Bury them generously, and if they have family members, compensate them well."
"Yes." Manager Xu understood what Jimo Wuxuan meant. He had just arrived and started working on things before he could even take a breath. He didn't dare to show any signs of neglect.
In fact, he was also very sad. After all, these nursing homes were usually led by him. Now that people have died, something seems to be missing in his heart.
Gui Haifeng never said anything, he just stood there coldly, looked at the accounting room carefully, and then expressed his suspicion, "Something happened in the accounting room, and Li Qing just left a letter and left at this time.
Could it be related to him?"
Many people agree with this suspicion, even Jimo Wuxuan is no exception.
Qian Diewu originally believed in Li Qing, but things happened so coincidental that she didn't know whether to believe Li Qing or not, so she remained silent.
Jimo Wuxuan knew that Qian Diewu was conflicted. In order not to make her feel too uncomfortable, even though he was doubting Li Qing, he would still comfort her, "Don't think too much, maybe it's just a coincidence. If this is true,
It's related to Li Qing, which only means that this person is very good at acting, so I don't blame you."
"If this matter is really related to him, I will kill him with my own hands without mercy." Qian Diewu was very serious and was mentally prepared for the worst.
