"Andre, is this the result of your years of business in Liyue?"
Pantalone's voice was elegant and low, and she raised her hand to turn over the hourglass in front of the table. The gilded sand slowly dripped down, emitting a dazzling light under the light.
"Master Pantalone, I, we have nothing to do, sir..."
Andre looked down at the ground, not daring to raise his head to see Pantalone's expression. He completely lost his ability to respond to Keqing's cross-examination.
The total amount of mora on the Northland bank statement has reached an astonishing amount. Even all the expenses of Her Majesty the Queen's trip to the Winter Palace last year are not comparable to the compensation contract that Dadalia signed casually.
Pantalone sat in the office, calmly looking at the thick stack of bills, taking off the glasses hanging on the bridge of his nose, and the smile on his face became increasingly unsustainable.
Rather than overthrowing Liyue's economic hegemony, he now wants to impose economic sanctions on the last seat.
"Where are the others in Dadalia?"
Seeing Andrei hesitating and looking in a dilemma, Pantalone sighed and asked about Dadalia's whereabouts.
"The young master has never come back since he left Beiguo Bank the day before yesterday, and he also left you...a letter."
Mentioning the culprit that caused the current situation, Andre's tone suddenly became smoother, and he respectfully took out the letter entrusted by Dadalia from his pocket.
Pantalone took the envelope covered with paint with a smile, took out the letter paper and read it.
At the beginning of the paper, a complicated Liyue greeting is used to introduce readers to Liyue's various special snacks and cultural scenery. The language is quite elegant and retro, and it is more like a ghostwriter from Liyue School.
The sentence at the end of the letter mixed with the words "solstice" was obviously added later, revealing the fact that the writer's cultural level was not high:
"Pantarone, although I don't know what the letter you gave me is about, you'd better pray that Tok is okay, otherwise I will give away your North Country Bank when I return to Zhi Dong!"
In addition, there are several bills in the envelope, which are obviously to be reimbursed to Pantalone.
"Very good...Ajax."
Pantalone's depressed and low voice sounded in the room, with an extremely cold chill. Then he turned his head and handed the letter to Russell, and casually ordered: "Go and send a mission report to the Harlequin, and tell him that Dadalia has already
After he died, this is his suicide note."
The old housekeeper subconsciously took the paper handed over by Pantalone, but soon froze in place at a loss.
How could he be qualified to report the death of the executive?
But seeing the cold look on the big banker's face, Russell did not intend to refute Master Pantalone's instructions at this time. He took the letter left by Dadalia, bowed and left the room backwards.
At this moment, only Irina and Andre were left in the office, while Pantalone tapped the heavy mahogany desk with her fingers, seeming to be thinking about something.
The Executive Officers of Fools represent the strongest combat power in the Winter Kingdom, and the recruitment method can be not only personally invited by "Harlequin" Piero, but also recommended by other Executive Officers.
As the youngest and last member of the Fools, Dadalia's recommender is none other than the fifth "rooster" Puccinella.
As we all know, the relationship between Pantalone and Puccinella is not harmonious. Although the mayor is quite skillful and courageous, and his policies are implemented quite well, the actual results are hard to praise.
Especially after Dadalia became an executive, Puccinera continued to win over the other party's relatives, and even asked Dadalia's younger siblings to call him Grandpa Puccinera.
Thinking of the expressions on the children's faces when they enthusiastically called Grandpa Puccinella, the disgust in Pantalone's brows almost overflowed.
Despite Dadalia's usually harmless big brother appearance, during the training in Solstice Kingdom, this person who liked to fight bravely and fiercely caused a lot of trouble for Pantalone.
For example, Dardalia once participated in a one-sided armed battle in Seadust Town. He alone defeated two battalions of the Fools' Recruiting Group, and Pantalone had to allocate funds to Card.
Pitano spent a lot of money to treat and comfort the injured soldiers.
"Captain" Capitano pays attention to the honor of the knight. Even when fighting on the battlefield, he maintains the due elegance and will never deliberately damage the surrounding buildings and objects.
When Dardalia was performing her mission, she always took action in a wide range of ways, and everywhere she went was destroyed like ruins.
As a result, Pantalone had to deal with various maintenance fees and damage compensation issues.
He always felt that this little madman Dadalia was specially used by Puccinera to cause trouble for him.
And the result was indeed effective. Pantalone not only compensated Mora, but also suffered from headaches in the aftermath.
"This is an extremely despicable waste!"
Pantalone had made a serious protest to the Harlequin, but Piero obviously had a different view.
"As fellow fools, you should help each other...but it is rare to hear the word "waste" from your mouth."
The clown's replies were casual and brief, but they often made the smile on Pantalone's face disappear in an instant.
Fortunately, when dealing with Ajax's compensation bill, Pantalone could always use the excuse of incompetent teaching and deliberately blame Puccinira for his incompetence in front of everyone. However, this kind of ridicule can only make the shameless
The mayor twitched his lips.
"I thought children who were born in a rural place like Haidu Town should understand how difficult it is to make money."
Pantalone specifically emphasized the children who were sent to the countryside. At this moment, Andre's brain was running rapidly in the office, and he was secretly screaming.
Master Pantalone was obviously in a bad mood. If he didn't find a way out quickly, he might not be able to keep his position as the manager of Beiguo Bank.
"Master Pantalone...the casino that was taken away together with the Iwagami Tea Room was reopened a few days ago."
Andre speculated that since the master's code name is "rich man", he might be interested in casinos.
Fortunately, Andre made the right bet.
Pantalone was still thinking about who to pick to replace Andre, but then his attention was attracted by the other party's remedial words.
"Do you know who is behind it?"
The executives in the room seemed to have been successfully diverted, and Andre finally let go of what he had been worrying about.
"It hasn't been found yet, but it is speculated that it is the current Tianquan Ningguang, and the woman named Ye Lan who you asked us to track down often goes to the Yanshang Teahouse to play dice recently..."
Andre answered the question cautiously, but just as the name "Ye Lan" was spoken, the strange wrist ring on Irina's wrist shimmered as if in response, and the faint blue light also
Interrupted Andre's narration.
Irina raised her hand in surprise, and several blue phantoms appeared out of thin air. The scene should be in a secret room.
The short-haired woman wearing a snow-white cloak was discussing something with several of her subordinates, but as the woman seemed to be aware of it, she tapped the bracelet on her wrist that was the same as Irina's, and the phantom disappeared in an instant. p>
"Lord Pantalone?"
Irina was obviously at a loss and looked sideways at Pantalone.
"It seems that the little mouse can't hide anymore..."
Pantalone narrowed her eyes and smiled, as if she had successfully discovered a loophole in the policy and earned a large sum of money.
At this moment, Ekaterina, who had fled Pantalone's office, returned anxiously, knocked lightly and pushed open the heavy door:
"Lord Pantalone, there is a young man named Famas who wants to see you..."
