Chapter 1325 Lorraine 13
She spoke her last sentence casually, but everyone could hear the murderous intent in her words; she was about to get serious.
Louis clenched his little fists with excitement. He wanted to be like his older sister, making the bloodiest decisions with the most nonchalant tone!
Chris yawned, his eyes blazing with savagery. Having just been outmaneuvered by Tan You, he was seething with anger, and now that he could openly vent it, how could Chris possibly refuse?
"Really? I certainly recognize Moonstone."
“Yes, if we don’t see the Moonstone and those profits today, the Dubot family has no reason to exist. The Exile Lands are short of laborers, so let’s take them all there and have them build the city walls for me.”
Tan You casually brushed aside the vortex in front of her, and the vortex began to spin rapidly. Alina, Carlos, and Lan Yuan all jumped three steps away from the vortex, not knowing whether they would be swallowed up by it.
"We only saw off one guard just now, which is far too few. Once he's in exile, it's hard to say whether he'll be able to return."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the Dubot family panicked; it was as if he were talking about wiping out the entire clan.
Paget stepped forward and forced a smile: "Lorraine, your aunt misremembered. The Moonstone is properly enshrined in the family and was not taken to Silent Hill."
"I'll have someone deliver the Moonstone over right now."
Tan You raised her hand: "Chris, go and bring back the Moonlight Jade."
“If anyone dares to stop us… then don’t blame us. Also, bring the Dubot family’s accountant and all the account books from these past twenty years. We need to calculate how many gold coins the Dubot family has withheld from me over the past twenty years.”
Chris snorted impatiently twice, then flapped his wings and flew away. Tan You squinted at Chris as he disappeared into the distance, and couldn't help but click her tongue. The more she looked at him, the more he resembled a large winged lizard.
To be honest, it was very different from the image of dragons she had ever seen.
As soon as Chris left, Carlos and Blue Iris automatically stood on either side of the Bone Throne, while Alina stood below the throne, next to Louis.
Chris was quick to arrive and quick to return. In less than half an hour, it appeared in the square carrying an elderly accountant who looked to be about fifty years old. At the same time, it slapped down with its other paw, smashing a large box to the ground, scattering account books all over the place.
The old accountant was already trembling with fear, completely unaware of what was happening. Upon arriving at the square and seeing Tan You sitting regally on the throne, he paused for a moment. Then, upon seeing Paget, he unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief and stood still beneath Paget's feet.
The accountant and ledgers have been brought here; this account must be settled in full view of everyone. Paget gritted his teeth: "Luther, calculate the profits the family has gained from Silent Hill over the years, and give one-third of it to Lord Lorraine."
“No,” Tan You held up a finger and shook it: “The first eighteen years are one-third of the total. The marriage certificate stipulates that we will get married at the age of eighteen. After the marriage, all the profits from Silent Hill will belong to me. The share I have received in the last two years should be all the profits from Silent Hill.”
Paget's eyes were practically bleeding, but he still agreed: "Give it to her!"
Luther immediately sat cross-legged and began to do the accounting.
Tan You glanced at Chris: "Can you keep track of the accounts?"
Chris puffed out his chest smugly: "I'm the most shrewd dragon in the family, I won't miss a single gold coin!"
“Okay,” Tan You immediately arranged for Chris to go out: “Watch him settle the accounts, and I’ll give you the money after it’s done…”
"Give me a thousand... no... two thousand gold coins!"
Chris raised a paw and two toes. Tan You raised an eyebrow: "Don't be so short-sighted. It's pointless to talk about this kind of reward. This fixed reward is only so much. If you can find loopholes in his accounts, I'll give you the corresponding amount for every loophole you find, which will definitely be far more than 2000 gold coins."
Chris immediately folded his wings and squatted down next to Luther. Louis hesitated for a moment, then dragged his long Jormungandr tail and sat cross-legged next to Chris.
His elder sister is already a lord, so he needs to learn something so that he can help her in the future!
On his left was a menacing dragon, and on his right was Louis, who was holding the tail of a mysterious serpent. Luther was so frightened that his legs trembled, and he could barely continue with the accounts.
Paget sighed, knowing that no matter what, this score had to be settled clearly today. Since that was the case, it was better to be decisive than wait until someone pointed it out; that would be even more embarrassing.
He gave Luther a wink, and Luther understood. Soon, the ledger on the spot vanished at lightning speed.
Tan You sat on the throne, occasionally glancing at the nobles and commoners watching the spectacle, and sometimes tapping the armrest of the throne, clearly deep in thought.
The God of Light said sharply, "What evil are you plotting this time? Only you can handle someone like this."
"If she is my chosen one, the Temple of Light will be completely ravaged by her schemes, leaving not even a single bitter tea seed."
Tartarus, with the proud look of someone who thought his little brat was successful, said: "This is a tactic. What do you mean by 'suppressing evil'? I haven't even called you hypocritical yet. We all know that the world isn't black and white."
"This extreme whiteness is also the extreme hypocrisy."
"She and I are on the same path, but with you, we are simply on different tracks."
"If she's not ruthless, how can she govern my territory well?"
With Paget's tacit approval, Luther quickly calculated the Dubote family's profits from Silent Hill over the years. However, Luther was particularly nervous when reciting the figures.
Tan You leaned forward slightly: "Tell me, what's the number? You seem a little guilty."
Luther swallowed hard, glancing in the direction of Margery: "In the first eighteen years, the family acquired a total of 297,639,872 amethyst coins in Silent Hill."
"Lord Lorraine, you deserve 99213290 amethyst coins."
"The family has earned 40 million amethyst coins in the past two years."
"According to the contract, you should be paid 139213290 amethyst coins."
His voice trailed off, and he couldn't finish his sentence. Tan You had a pretty good idea what was going on, and she couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile: "So where's my money?"
Luther glanced at Margery again: "Before you came to the family, all your earnings were recorded separately and stored separately. But, but three years ago, Madam asked me for the key to your private vault."
Tan You smiled, her gaze falling on Margeli. After a soft chuckle, she looked at Paget. She said nothing, yet everything was said.
Paget's face burned: "Give the vault key to Lord Lorraine!"
