Chapter 0075: Prologue to Turmoil (8)
He admits that he is very careful when he goes out, and he is always careful not to be followed. I don't think anyone in the city can follow him without being noticed.
The people of the Bounty League?
A flash of light passed through Louie's mind, and the only possibility was that the news had leaked from the Bounty Alliance.
In order to find the missing employee to cover up the secret, Tianbo Mansion would not hesitate to pay such a price, it seems that the hidden secret is not simple.
Although Louie has absolute confidence in his own strength, it is easy to deal with these people in front of him. But this is Kansas after all, and he lives in the cinnabar mansion temporarily, and he doesn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.
After some deliberation, Louis said, "I did take her away, that's true." But she was seriously injured at the time, and it was because her life was in danger, so I had to take that measure. β
Damio, who was bowing his brow on the side, also heard something, and it was obvious that Sylvie brought by Louis was the employee that Jackson and the others were trying to find.
"Listen to what you mean, that means you admit to paying for her?"
"Can you let me talk to that man first?"
"On that note, unfortunately, no. If you collude in private, that's bad. β
The two of them can listen ββββto the conversation while they are talking.
Louis wanted to say this, but kept his mouth shut.
As a result, this is all set up in advance. Even if you can find a man, it is unlikely that the situation will turn in your favor, and attacking from this aspect is just a waste of time.
"Isn't it more problematic for the state to let her do work that would cause such serious injuries before pursuing this kind of problem, but there is no law to ban it?" Louie changed his approach and went straight to the point.
Sheldon seems to be very good at dealing with this kind of thing, saying, "Injuries are just a sudden probability, and the work in our shop is tough, so injuries are a last resort." You see, working in a mine or something like that, isn't there also an occupational injury? It's the same as that. β
"Hehe, I don't think she's hurt as lightly as you say."
Sheldon smiled softly, "Hahaha, we are in the service industry, and there are all kinds of customers." I'm paying attention, well, I understand what Mr. Louis said, and I'll be a little more ββββ next time. β
"Slightly?"
"Oh, yes. It costs money to mind too many details, and there are some issues that are difficult to solve. In response to Louis's questioning, Sheldon sneered at the corners of his mouth.
Sheldon also had a slight hearing of Louis in front of him, and heard that he slaughtered Cerberus and Zang White Snake with his bare hands, so he was appreciated by Lord Cinnabar.
Of course, the so-called rumors are mixed with some false elements and cannot be taken seriously. However, this is enough for Sheldon to pay attention, and perhaps it would be better to settle the matter at hand peacefully.
"Looks like everything has been figured out." Jackson sighed lightly, that was the attitude of human beings towards stupid people.
"My role is to adjudicate this matter, and the treatment of employees is beyond my control.
In that case, then I have to detain you temporarily.
However, Mr. Sheldon is willing to settle with you, and I hope that he will be relieved.
In that case, you will also have to pay compensation for Mr. Shelton. In addition, the procedures for destroying the documents related to this case also cost money. β
Louis did not expect that the final outcome would turn into a peaceful settlement, "So what is the specific reconciliation method?" β
Sheldon and Jackson glanced at each other, and blurted out the solution they had agreed upon, "Well...... First of all, I hope you will bring our staff back. Again, it's the amount of money that you should have earned during the period when you took the employee away, and you want to make up for this loss. β
Louis was not mistaken, the purpose of their trip was not to convict themselves, but to extort a sum of money.
"Well, how much do you expect me to compensate you?"
"I've done a rough math, I'll need two gold coins plus forty-five silver coins."
"Oh, can you tell me more about the payment?"
Just when Louis and Sheldon were arguing over the specific payment, Jackson on the side was dissatisfied, "Hey, you wait first." Brother Sheldon, the accounts don't seem to be right, right? β
After Jackson's reminder, Sheldon suddenly realized, and immediately said to Louie, "Oops, I almost forgot." Because I've already filed a victim report, Master Jackson already has a file of paperwork. Even if a few of us settle it privately, we will have to spend a fee for document destruction. β
Jackson smiled maliciously "yes, hey, hey, hey......"
Louis looked at these two greedy fellows, and it seemed that if he wanted to go down the path of a peaceful solution, he would have to spend a lot of money.
After a short conversation, Louis had roughly seen through the two men's ways, and Louie felt the need to understand some answers from Sylvie's mouth before making a decision.
The two of them were right, but her injuries were not yet fully recovered.
I think if you take her away now, the injury might come back. And if it is not treated properly, she may die in the future.
I think it's better to stay with me and take care of it, what do you think? β
Hearing this, Sheldon's eyes glowed with a strange brilliance.
Sensing the change in the other party, Louis strongly felt his slip of the tongue, and seemed to let the other party realize his attachment to Sylvie.
"I see, I see, it makes sense. Regardless of the fact that if the person concerned dies, of course we will ask you to compensate for the money spent on her. β
Jackson's eyes lit up red, "Then we'll give you two days to think about it, and we'll come back in two days." β
"Okay."
Ending with these words, Louis led everyone to the gate.
As they were leaving, Sheldon, who had been left to the end, suddenly turned around, smiled at Louie, and gave him a message: "But I have to thank that woman who was born as a concubine." An adult once said that he didn't expect a discarded product to be a hen that lays golden eggs.
Also, I hope she didn't say any crazy words to disturb you. If she says something, it's better not to hear it, otherwise it will lead to more unexpected trouble. I don't think you like to be in trouble. β
With these words, the door slammed shut.
As if the iron door were transparent, Louis cast his gaze at the group......
