Sun Sheng nodded quickly; "I understand. I will never come to the state capital again."

Shen Li saw that he seemed to be really scared, and estimated that he would never come to cause trouble again. This was good. People like him were meant to scare him and make him never think of coming again.

Sister Daya will no longer be entangled or influenced by him, but she is very upset when she sees the mess on the ground.

"Look at my store. What a mess it has become."

Sun Sheng was about to cry at this point: "I... I don't have the money to compensate." He actually still had more than a hundred coins on him, but he had to see a doctor and pay for the trip back, so he really couldn't take it out. The shop was in such a state now, and the little money he had was not enough, so he might as well not take it.

Shen Li was just trying to scare him and vent his anger. He had already guessed that he had no money. Even if he had a little, it would not be enough to compensate him. It would be better not to kill him. "Okay, take your people and leave."

Sun Sheng ran out of the store as if he was wound up, and the five people on the ground also staggered away after him, enduring the pain.

"Uncle Fang, it's a good thing you arrived in time, otherwise we would have been bullied." Shen Li said.

"I know, I have a count." Fang Tianya said calmly.

"In that case, Uncle Fang, are you watching nearby?" Shen Li felt that this was very likely the case.

Fang Tianya was right, but he would not admit it, otherwise Shen Li would definitely get mad: "No, I was just looking around, and that's why I thought of looking for you."

Although Shen Li was a little skeptical, he was a mysterious man and it was not uncommon for him to appear anywhere. She was still a little unsure, and at this time Li Daya came over.

"Ali, it's all because of me that the store has become like this. It's my fault. I...I betrayed your trust."

Shen Li saw that she was full of guilt and seemed about to cry. You know, Li Daya looks like a weak and gentle woman, but she is a strong person at heart. She hardly sheds tears easily. But now, she must be really sad.

She understood even more that she had invested a lot in this store, and now she felt worse than she should.

"Sister Daya, you don't have to feel guilty. This is Sun Sheng's fault, not yours. Don't blame yourself for someone else's mistake. Besides, it's okay now. We can take a break for three days and then reopen. It won't affect anything."

Li Daya saw that Shen Li not only did not blame her, but also comforted her. She should not say anything more, but should manage the store well and do good things for her in return: "I understand, leave the cleaning of the store to me and Erya."

The store was just a little messy, but it was easy to clean up. Shen Li had a lot of things to deal with and didn't have time to clean up here: "Okay, I have other things to deal with. By the way, Sister Daya, how much money is left in the store now?"

Li Daya was very familiar with the accounts, so she didn't even need to look at them: "I settled the accounts at the end of October and gave you all the silver. I sold a little more in the past two days, so now it's only over 500 taels."

"Then you can just withdraw anything you need to clean up the store from the account. Also, we agreed before that I would find someone to teach you how to manage the accounts. When you have nothing to do, go out and ask around and see if you can find an accountant to come to the store to teach you. It's better to learn early. When the accounts increase in the future, it may be difficult to manage them if you don't learn."

"I know. When the shop reopens, I will find someone to learn from me."

"The tuition fees can be paid directly from the account." Shen Li said, and seeing that she was about to refuse, he said, "Sister Daya, just listen to me." She didn't want to worry about these trivial matters. Now there was a big trouble. She had to think about where to get ten thousand taels of silver.

On the second day, Shen Li had an idea in her mind. Although it was not a good solution, it could solve her urgent problem.

She found Fang Tianya.

"Uncle Fang, can you go to the casino with me?" That place is full of all kinds of people, and she must bring an expert with her.

Fang Tianya was surprised: "Why are you going there?"

"I saw a piece of land on the outskirts of the city and wanted to buy it to build a workshop, but I don't have enough money, so I thought of borrowing some from the casino." If Shen Li was right, if he wanted to borrow money here now, he should go to the casino.

"How much do you want to borrow?"

"Ten thousand taels."

Fang Tianya was speechless and felt guilty at the same time, after all, he still owed the other person money.

"I don't think the casino can borrow it. The amount is too large."

Shen Li really hadn't thought of this question: "Uncle Fang, do you know where I can borrow so much?"

"Only underground banks can handle such large sums of money."

"They wouldn't be lying or anything, would they? They'd just make you keep paying back the money, and if I pay it back on time, then I'll be cleared of the debt."

"There is indeed an underground bank in this state. As far as I know, if you pay it back on time, there should be no problem. But if you can't pay it back, the situation you mentioned may happen. That's what lenders do."

Shen Li was puzzled: "Uncle Fang, how do you know so much?"

Fang Tianya did not hide it: "I was short of money before, and I wanted to borrow some, but if the amount is large, I need collateral, which I don't have, so I can't borrow it."

He had never thought that Shen Li would really give him one thousand taels. In fact, he had guessed who his enemy was, but he didn't have a definite answer, so he had been avoiding it and let himself fall into despair. It was not until he met Shen Li and she gave him the money that he had no reason to escape. So he should really thank her for allowing him to face his heart knot.

"Uncle Fang, are they really honest?" Shen Li was afraid of falling into a trap. There was money that she could never pay back. She was not afraid of high interest rates as long as she could pay it back on time.

"If you can pay it back on time, there's no need for them to keep an eye on you. After all, they're only after the money."

Shen Li thought so too, and no longer hesitated: "Uncle Fang, please go with me."

"Not for now."

"busy?"

"No, that place is called Moonlight Tower, and it's only open at night."

Shen Li didn't expect there was such a rule. The name was very fitting: "Then let's go at night, Uncle Fang, don't let my second brother know." Shen Li was afraid that he would not agree, so he planned to hide it from him first.

Fang Tianya nodded in understanding.

In the evening, after dinner, Shen Li said he was tired and went back to his room to rest.

Seeing her like that, Shen Liang thought she was worried about money, so he didn't say much and went back to his room.

After a while, Shen Li quietly came out and left the inn. Wu Zhong and Fang Tianya were already waiting in the car.

During the day, Shen Li and Wu Zhong told Shen Liang not to know. They thought he might not listen, but unexpectedly he was unusually obedient.
