Chen Ji remained silent.
The account books of the Chen Family Salt Shop were kept flawlessly clean by Chen Yue, leaving no handle to grasp.
However, in the account books, there were only records of official salt, with no sign of a single pound of private salt. It must be that several shopkeepers concealed the truth from the main family, secretly mixing private salt into the Chen Family Salt Shop for sale, dividing the profits among themselves.
Now that Second Manager Ye, who was responsible for the private salt, is dead, the deficit in the public accounts is entirely pinned on him, leaving no living witness. Moreover, even the group of private salt traffickers were silenced by murder, and the second branch has thoroughly eliminated the hidden dangers of the salt shop.
No wonder Chen Lizhi was so calm and composed.
A sudden thud was heard.
