Chapter 2684 (1/2)
Seeing elder Zhao's expression, Lin Mengya understood a general idea.
It should be the privacy of the Zhao family again.
I just wanted to skip this sentence, but I didn't expect Zhao Changlao to turn around and take out a small rectangular sandalwood box in the interlayer of the bookcase.
He rubbed the box with a slightly complicated look.
After a long time, he sighed.
”I always thought that as long as my business grew bigger and bigger, both the Presbyterian Council and the Zhao family would pay more attention to me.
Now I understand that I'm just a chess piece they use to collect money. ”
When he left home when he was young, he also experienced several life and death before he had his current status.
But I don't want to. Now I suddenly realize that maybe in the eyes of the Presbyterian Council and the Zhao family, he is just a tool.
Even his wife, he could hardly shelter.
As a man, he only felt that he had failed all his life.
Lin Mengya can't comfort each other.
Fortunately, elder Zhao is not a complaining character.
After sighing, he opened the small box.
It is also an account book inside, but compared with those messy accounts outside, those accounts inside are orderly.
He took it out carefully and put it in front of Lin Mengya.
”Here is where every income goes. I have indeed made a lot of money over the years, but except for a small part left by myself for household and turnover, I have handed over most of the rest to the Presbyterian Council and the Zhao family.”
No wonder, Lin Mengya thought, no wonder Presbyterian Zhao is discouraged.
She opened the account book, but the contents shocked her eyes.
This is not——
”By the way, I forgot you should not understand.”
Elder Zhao patted himself on the head.
Just wanted to find out the control book for her, but saw that the other party was reading page by page. It was quite serious, but it didn't seem that she couldn't understand it at all.
I was surprised.
”How can you understand my secret language?”
Because he was too surprised, elder Zhao's tone was almost interrogative.
But I don't want Lin Mengya's face to be equally incredible.
”So you can speak this language, too? Are all the business outside your hands?”
Originally, they got along quite well, but now they seem to be at a crossfire.
Finally, elder Zhao pinched his eyebrows.
Maybe he's too sensitive.
”Miss Gong, you --”
But before she finished, Lin Mengya couldn't wait to ask, ”elder Zhao, I just ask you, are you dealing with the business of those mines outside?”
This is very important!
You know, the divination group was caught in the mine and almost tortured to death.
If elder Zhao is really behind the mining business, Huo Xiao will never die with him after he knows the truth!
Even aunt Fang, I'm afraid she won't forgive him again.
Elder Zhao hesitated for a moment before nodding slowly.
Lin mengarden's heart was half cold.
”Then why did you...” Before Lin Mengya finished asking, elder Zhao suddenly covered her mouth.
”You hide first.” After saying that in her ear, he pushed her into the cabinet behind the screen in the study.
Before elder Zhao closed the cabinet, the door of the study was pushed open.
Then, a slightly older male voice said, ”elder Zhao, I heard that your wife died a few days ago. Please forgive me.”
Elder Zhao kept calm and turned out of the screen.
Hiding in the cabinet, Lin Mengya adjusted her breathing and digested the information she got after opening the hiding function directly.
All the diviners were caught working and abusing in the mine, and the boss behind the scenes in the mine was elder Zhao. Huoxiao was the leader of the diviner group, but his biological mother was elder Zhao's first wife.
This, this is so messy!
Suddenly, she remembered that when Huo Xiao brought diviners to negotiate, Zhao mace also took people to encircle and suppress.
Oh, my God! What the hell is going on?
Outside, elder Zhao's face was a little tense when he saw the person coming.
But he soon recovered as usual, but the man was looking at him with deep eyes.
”Elder Lu, I don't know what you're doing here.”
Elder Lu smiled and sat on his chair.
The sight swept from those account books, and there was some coldness at the bottom of his eyes.
”I heard that elder Zhao wanted to check those old accounts, so I came to help.”
Elder Lu hides a knife in his smile.
”Although I don't have the ability to turn stone into gold like elder Zhao, I have also been in charge of the business alliance for many years. I'm afraid I don't remember what's on this account book.”
Elder Zhao knew that the other party must have bad intentions.
All elders of the Presbyterian Council perform their respective duties, and there are almost no vacancies except promotion and death.
He was born as a dark horse and became the youngest Sanhui elder.
