Chapter 225 Give You a Way to Survive
When they heard Meng Ruyan's name, they felt ashamed.
They all recalled the trust and importance Meng Ruyan had placed on them back then!
They all came from poor backgrounds. If it weren't for Meng Ruyan, they wouldn't have the luxurious life they have today.
They were silent for a moment, unsure how to respond.
Xiao Ran sneered.
"What's wrong? Are you all getting senile? Don't you know why you came to see me?"
"We have something important to tell the boss!"
"If you have anything to say, sit down and talk!"
Several people put down their hands, stood up again, and looked at Xiao Ran and Su Xiaoxiao.
Xiao Ran and Meng Ruyan look very similar. When they met Xiao Ran's bright eyes, they seemed to see Meng Ruyan of the past.
They felt guilty, no one dared to sit down, and no one was embarrassed to speak first.
Xiao Ran ignored him and said bluntly, "I haven't finished reading your account books yet! I'll come find you after I finish reading them!"
Someone couldn't help but speak first.
"Boss, I feel guilty. I'm here to admit my mistake!"
Xiao Ran pretended not to know.
He and Su Xiaoxiao had basically looked at the account books of these shops. These people, like Manager Fan, made false accounts and embezzled the money from the shops.
"Oh? What have you done to offend me?"
Another person said, "I embezzled the money from the shop. Today, I take the initiative to admit my mistake to the boss and am willing to hand over all the money I embezzled. I am even willing to make corresponding compensation. I just hope that the boss will consider our years of hard work in running the shop and not report us to the police or let us go to jail!"
Xiao Ran subconsciously looked at Su Xiaoxiao. Their eyes met, and a sneer flashed in his eyes.
It seems to be saying: I knew you were here for this.
Xiao Ran looked at the other shopkeepers.
"What brought you here?"
The others said in unison: "We are here for this too!"
Xiao Ran really wanted to go up and kick them a few times, and slam the table in anger.
"You're all hundreds of years old, how could you do such a treacherous thing? I feel so bad for my mother!"
Several people bowed and apologized in unison, "We were confused for a moment, please forgive us, sir."
Someone said, "As long as the boss calms down and doesn't pursue us, we'll agree to any compensation he proposes!"
They used the money they embezzled from the shop to do a lot of business privately.
When doing business, the most important thing is reputation.
If the fact that they embezzled their master's money were to be known, their reputation would be ruined, and it would be difficult for them to do business again in the future.
No one dares to employ a person who breaks his promise.
Xiao Ran looked at Su Xiaoxiao, seeking her opinion.
Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, "Since you have taken the initiative to admit your mistakes and are willing to hand over the silver you swallowed, we are not cruel people and will not kill you. We will give you a chance to live!"
When the few people heard that the master would not pursue the matter and agreed to their conditions, they finally put their minds at ease.
"Thank you, boss!"
Su Xiaoxiao immediately said, "I haven't finished what I'm saying yet! I can agree to your request, but we have conditions!"
Several people were stunned for a moment, and their hearts, which had just been relieved, began to rise again.
They looked at Su Xiaoxiao in surprise. Was Su Xiaoxiao going to ask for an exorbitant amount of money, like she did to Shopkeeper Fan, by ransacking their homes and leaving them homeless?
Someone tentatively asked, "I wonder what conditions the boss has? Can we meet them?"
Su Xiaoxiao noticed the tension among them and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid. My conditions are very simple. After you compensate for the money you swallowed, you must leave Linzhou Prefecture and never come back, let alone do business in Linzhou Prefecture."
Several people were stunned.
"This……"
"What? Don't agree?"
They made their fortune in Linzhou Prefecture, and many of their businesses and connections are in Linzhou Prefecture.
Letting them leave here is equivalent to cutting off their source of income.
Naturally they were reluctant to leave.
But compared to going to jail, they would rather choose to leave!
After thinking quickly, they quickly waved their hands to deny it.
"No, no, no! We are willing, we are willing, as long as the boss doesn't let us go to jail!"
"Alright, I give you until tomorrow to hand over all your money. You must leave Linzhou Prefecture within three days."
"Okay, okay, let's do it right away, let's do it right away!"
The few of them did not dare to delay any longer and quickly returned home to start raising money by selling the land, farms, and shops they had previously purchased.
After a few people left, Xiao Ran and Su Xiaoxiao burst into laughter at the same time.
The two looked at each other and high-fived.
"Oh yeah, I didn't expect this matter to be resolved so smoothly!"
"Yeah, I thought it would take a lot of effort to deal with these old guys! This is all thanks to my wife!"
Su Xiaoxiao was puzzled. "I didn't do anything. Why do you say that?"
Xiao Ran squatted in front of Su Xiaoxiao.
"You don't have to do anything, just stay by my side. I find that after marrying you, I have become more and more fortunate. You are my lucky star!"
As he spoke, he couldn't help but hold up Su Xiaoxiao's face and kissed her hard on the forehead.
Su Xiaoxiao was caught off guard by the kiss and blamed Xiao Ran in a coquettish manner.
"What are you doing? There are people here!"
Donglai, who was standing by, saw this scene and immediately blushed. He quickly covered his eyes and turned around.
"Madam, I didn't see anything!"
It would have been fine if Donglai hadn't said anything, but after hearing what he said, Su Xiaoxiao became even more shy.
Xiao Ran didn't care. He stood up, put his hands on his waist, and acted like he was the biggest person in the world.
"So what?! Is it illegal for me to kiss my own wife? Who dares to control me?"
"Okay, okay, stop talking, let's go back to the room!"
"Okay, wife!"
Xiao Ran happily came to the back of Su Xiaoxiao's wheelchair and pushed Su Xiaoxiao back to her room.
Two days later, they had finished reading the account books of all the shops in Linzhou Prefecture.
Apart from those who came forward to admit their mistakes, there are no more fake account books.
After the shop inspection came to an end, Su Xiaoxiao and Xiao Ran began to consider how to improve the shop which was not doing well.
Especially the Penglai Pavilion Inn and the Liyuan Building, a three-story restaurant in the city.
The two of them re-checked the Penglai Pavilion Inn and Liyuan Tower, but they could not think of a way to make improvements.
Su Xiaoxiao sighed deeply.
“Why is it so difficult to improve business?”
Xiao Ran was also very distressed, but he still comforted Su Xiaoxiao first.
"Don't worry, wife, we can always come up with a good solution."
Su Xiaoxiao replied weakly.
"Oh fine!"
Xiao Ran didn't want Su Xiaoxiao to be immersed in unhappy mood all the time. Suddenly he thought of something and his eyes lit up.
"Wife! How about I take you out to play?"
"Where to go?"
"Just follow me!"
Without waiting for Su Xiaoxiao's consent, Xiao Ran couldn't wait to push Su Xiaoxiao out.
