C77 You wonst admit to stealing my prescription? (2/2)

”Since this honor belongs to me, then …” Huai Jin suddenly paused, as though she was trying to keep people in suspense, after pondering for a long time, she spoke again: ”Then I'll look at the account books, there shouldn't be any problems, right?”

Dan Hong's face turned white, she stood in place for a long time without moving.

”What is it? Is there a problem? ”

”No, take out the account book and hand it over to young master.”

Dan Hong went out to retrieve the account book and casually brought Qiu Bai and Qiu Yue out. After a while, Dan Hong came back with the account book.

The way the ancient accounts were kept was very different from the modern world. The top of the books were densely packed with words that Huai Jin could not understand.

However, although she could not read the words on the account, she could understand Dan Hong's expression. Just from Dan Hong's reaction, she did not believe that there was no problem with the account!

Huai Jin flipped through the account books. After he checked, he threw the account books onto the table and asked sternly, ”Should I not explain this, Boss Dan?!”

Dan Hong was shocked, what she handed in was clearly an open account, but logically speaking, there should not be any problems, but she still did not dare to be careless, and softly explained: ”On the surface, Rongzhi is a rouge shop, but young master also knows, that in private, there are still people that need to be groomed, and the stronghold must be maintained, which requires a lot of money. ”Although Glory has earned a lot, but just the usage of the stronghold is more or less over time.”

”Is that so?” Huai Jin coldly replied with a question, ”I've already said that he wouldn't be able to receive orders from the outer army. Didn't Boss Dan not think of saving some money for himself in the capital and not be under the Marquis' watch?”

Dan Hong's heart sank, and waved her hand: ”Dan Hong does not dare.”

Don't dare to? Huai Jin laughed coldly in her heart. If she really did not dare to, then why would she dare to converse with him again and again? From putting the Grand Princess's information in front of him at the beginning to using her own prescription later on.

If she was truly loyal to the Xuanping Marquis, then she would be respectful to him!

Huai Jin looked at Ran Mei and nodded, then looked at Dan Hong and continued speaking coldly.

”Only you know whether or not you dare.”

Huai Jin was a mercenary in her previous life, so she naturally knew about these so-called strongholds.

However, Rongzhi was doing business with the noble ladies, and its profits were certainly not small. It was just a small foothold operation, which was more than enough.

Huai Jin said with a dark face, ”Previously, Master Hou was only thinking about you as a woman. However, since half of the glory will be mine from now on, I will carefully inquire about it! ”

Dan Hong lowered her head, her face already turning black, but she could only listen, not daring to refute a single word, after all this honor wasn't really hers either.

”I will send someone to investigate all the profits and expenditures recorded in the book. If there's nothing wrong with it, it's naturally for the best.” Huai Jin's voice suddenly became heavier and he said gloomily: ”If there's even the slightest thing that doesn't match... Boss Dan, please think about how you should explain this to me and the Xuanping Marquis! ”

Dan Hong's body went limp, almost falling to the ground. If the Xuanping Marquis were to know that he had so many assets that he had yet to report them, they would definitely not spare him! Even if the Xuanping Marquis was normally merciful to him, as someone who was in a position of power, he would never be willing to see his subordinates possessing too much power that he couldn't control.
