Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?!-Chapter 779 - 747: Such a Reversal (Part 3)
...
The grand hall was filled with laughter and praise, no one cared whether Li Dehai was dead or alive. Wang Yingzhuo watched as these clever merchants finally unified their statements to clear themselves of responsibility, and he felt a sense of relief, his smile growing broader.
As he asked everyone to patiently await news, he immediately teleported to the headquarters of the Demon Realm Alliance and found the Chief Steward he was closest to, Yu Jun.
"Old Wang, you’re still able to smile?" Yu Jun was bent over his desk writing something. Seeing Wang enter with a smile on his face, Yu Jun’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.
Back then, at the behest of his junior sister, he arranged an easy job for this cousin within the alliance.
Unexpectedly, Wang Yingzhuo had good fortune and knew how to handle matters. Plus, with Yu Jun’s covert help, he managed to climb from a small stall manager to managing the large market on Trapped Snake Island step by step.
But the last time he came rushing in, the huge mess stirred up on Trapped Snake Island made the higher-ups very angry. And this guy still has the face to smile? Ha, now the immediate need is to settle this swiftly, and only later will he be held accountable!
"Good news!" Wang Yingzhuo smiled apologetically as he handed over a report, laughing, "You’ll laugh too after reading this. It’s fantastic news—I have already tracked down the whereabouts of Li Dehai, who absconded with the money, and uncovered the mastermind behind the embezzlement. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
If you could lend a helping hand, by finding a capable Daoist to visit there, hahaha... the mess of Trapped Snake Island will be perfectly settled."
Yu Jun was full of doubt, took the report, and merely glanced at it before his eyes widened, "How do you know Li Dehai is dead? Your information is very timely, the seniors just used divination above, confirming he’s already dead."
Indeed, he’s dead!
Wang Yingzhuo was instantly overjoyed and sought credit: "Isn’t that a coincidence? You know the Cloud Concealment Sect, one of the Ancient Ten Great Sects, don’t you? I asked..."
He recalled the exact words of Daoist Hou and exaggerated a bit: "Invited an Elder from the Cloud Concealment Sect personally to perform divination, not only confirming Li Dehai’s death but also who killed him and where he was killed!
I’ve written all of this inside, and more importantly, what’s after that—Li Dehai was merely a puppet of the five great families of Silver Valley, and the money he amassed was divided by the five families behind the scenes. This time, it was the unequal distribution of spoils that spurred the killing intent. Their relationships, the veteran patrons of the Emberfire Trading can mutually verify, absolutely no falsehood!"
"Oh? There are witnesses? Are you sure they can withstand verification? The higher-ups are very displeased, and if they decide to use some Secret Techniques, those witnesses of yours..." Yu Jun was skeptical about this.
"My good Steward!" Wang Yingzhuo grinned and lowered his voice, "The higher-ups don’t care whether Li Dehai is dead or alive, nor about witnesses or not; they care about the alliance’s rules and face.
Daring to openly violate the alliance’s covenant, Li Dehai and the five merchants of Silver Valley deserve a thousand deaths!
This matter has nothing to do with me, the aggrieved parties all pointed fingers, stating that it was in Silver Valley they paid the money; even the accountant mentioned that due to routing through the trading company, it was recorded separately, hence I was unaware.
But the amount involved is enormous, and the Emberfire Trading did fall under my jurisdiction, so I investigated the matter thoroughly and submitted the findings.
If you could lend a hand, find someone capable to head over to the Shi Family in Silver Valley to investigate Li Dehai’s murder. Ransack and behead as a warning, then use the confiscated assets to repay the money, and this matter will be resolved.
The alliance’s rapid response, swift investigation, and handling of major cases; the aggrieved parties, forced into a corner, also recover their money to offset losses; then publicize and alarm with a full announcement on the Emberfire Trading matter, we’ll have the appearance and the substance, dignified indeed."
