Gu Yanan chuckled at the most serious moment, then spoke.

"Why should you worry? We are all on the same boat. We all prosper together and suffer together. How could I possibly tell others about your affairs?"

He is now in charge of the affairs of Gutian Town. If he conceals anything, it would be a serious crime of deceiving the emperor, which is also a crime.

Several officials immediately understood, and everyone had a helpless expression on their face, and then they smiled at the same time.

The flattering look on Lord Lin's face was very obvious. He bent his waist slightly and held the wine glass even lower.

"What the prince said is reasonable. We are too narrow-minded and have bad ideas about him."

Naturally, several officials were also trying to please Gu Yanan at the same time. Who would be willing to lose their head?

We can only blame them for not keeping their mouths shut and leaking the whole thing out right away.

……

At the same time, Liu Dashan was very popular in the casino. Almost everyone liked him very much. He was hardworking and willing to work.

The store manager couldn't help but praise him, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

"Wait for me to work for a few more years. My wife and children are all protected at home. I'll leave this position to you. I'm sure you can do better than me."

He did make a lot of money, and his family lived a wealthy life. Although not as rich as those dignitaries, it seemed to be much better than ordinary people.

Liu Dashan pretended to be honest, smiled and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"That's because you, the store manager, manage the store well. If you had left the store to me, I would definitely not be able to do as well as you do and I wouldn't be able to manage it."

There are indeed a lot of things to do in this underground casino. You have to go to people's homes to collect debts every day, and you have to trick them into coming to gamble. Ordinary people really can't do this.

The store manager seemed nonchalant, raised his eyebrows slightly, and gave instructions in a low voice.

"You don't have to worry about that. Just do this job for as many years as you can. If you can't do it, just leave. It has nothing to do with me anyway."

They are just doing the job for money. If anything goes wrong, everyone will go their own way.

Liu Dashan was a little surprised, but he didn't ask. He continued to do his work as usual, wiping the table gently.

Seeing this, the store manager felt a little worried and ordered everyone to clean up the surrounding area quickly.

"Hurry up, clean up these places for me. Master Shen will be here soon. If he finds out that we are not okay, it will be a disaster."

This concerns everyone's money, so everyone worked very hard and never stopped moving.

Hearing this, a flash of inspiration came to Liu Dashan's mind. In the end, he picked up the things in his hand, walked slowly to the backyard, and finally disappeared.

Shen Rujun just came in from the gate at this time. Looking at the row of people standing around him, he felt quite satisfied and nodded slightly.

"You have done a good job recently, but the amount of money you received is not as much as before. You should be more careful in your daily life, otherwise we will have a hard time explaining to our superiors."

He was accompanied by guards. He had a literary look on his face, but he was efficient and ruthless when doing things, which scared these people.

The store manager quickly brought the account book he had prepared to the table, looking extremely charming.

"Mr. Shen, please take a look at the recent cash flow. Also, our entire store is running pretty well at the moment. We will pay attention to the issues you mentioned."

Normally, he doesn't take anyone seriously, but when he meets these dignitaries, he is naturally inferior to others.

Shen Rujun pretended to look at it, then finally held the account book in his arms, typed a few words, and turned away.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief at this time. Liu Dashan slowly returned to the front yard and continued to do his work without letting anyone notice anything unusual.

The store manager took Liu Dashan's hand and walked directly into the backyard, feeling a little nervous.

"Mr. Shen took the account book directly this time. Are you sure that there is no problem with what you did?"

If something goes wrong, they will be in big trouble.

Liu Dashan had studied for a few years after all, so he was naturally adept at this. He lowered his head slightly and spoke in a very low voice.

"Don't worry, I remember all the accounts here clearly. I have already left some money for those officials."

Their casino has one account book on the surface and another account book in private.

These officials would also secretly hide some money, but they would try to send the bulk of it to the third prince.

The store manager nodded slightly. He usually made some money, but he didn't dare to be too rampant, so he could only take a little every time.

"I feel relieved when you say that. Next time, we should try to be careful and covert."

He patted the dust off his sleeves, and his fake look made people want to laugh.

Liu Dashan didn't know what to say, so he just nodded slightly and agreed immediately.

"it is good."

Shen Rujun knew nothing about the account book in his hand, but when he returned to Fuzhou, he checked it carefully. Overall, there were no problems, which was not bad.

He slowly closed the account book, felt a slight headache, and rubbed his temples.

"Have they done anything tricky recently?"

The guard standing beside him immediately understood and spoke in a low voice.

"County Magistrate Yang and his men took the initiative to invite Gu Yan'an to dinner. As for the specific content, we haven't found out, but at present, they are rejecting Master Shen."

They did a lot of things in private, but they never brought Shen Rujun with them. They always did things secretly.

A cold light flashed across Shen Rujun's eyes and a sneer appeared on his face.

"They are really brave. Now they dare to take the initiative to find Gu Yanan. Aren't they just trying to embarrass us?"

The Third Prince actually handed over all the affairs in Gutian County to him, so these officials naturally paid more attention. They did not expect that they would dare to do such things.

The guard standing beside him seemed to have no idea how to respond and just pursed his lips.

"It's possible."

It is normal for them to feel resentful. After all, no one wants to be suppressed suddenly for no reason.

But Shen Rujun will not be an easy person to deal with in the future. He took out the brush in his hand and practiced calligraphy quietly. Suddenly, a faint light flashed in his mind.

"By the way, help me arrange a meeting with Miss Lin tomorrow. I want to see what they talked about."

He has now tried every possible means, even their daughter has gone out of her way to curry favor with him, and surprisingly, there is one person who has taken the bait.
