Chapter 85: Mud Pile
Chapter 85: Mud Pile
"Golden Palace?"
Zhou Wang was startled.
"I...I saw some consumption records on Cheng Zhe's mobile phone. The amounts were quite large. The merchant name displayed was 'Golden Palace'."
Xu Wenqian carefully explained, "I don't know where this place is, and he doesn't have anything else on his phone, so..."
"Why don't you ask him directly?" Zhou Wang asked doubtfully.
Xu Wenqian was silent for a moment before speaking: "I'm afraid of causing unnecessary misunderstandings. He may be a little... sensitive recently. I don't want to quarrel with him anymore."
"Is that so?"
Zhou Wang tapped his fingers on the armrest of the sofa, "Golden Palace... I have indeed heard of such a place, but I'm not sure if it's what you're talking about."
"You really know?"
Xu Wenqian, who had no hope at first, her eyes brightened slightly, and then she said eagerly, "Is there any way to verify this?"
"have."
Zhou Wang answered simply, but his expression was a bit strange, "But you have to think carefully, maybe the truth may not be what you hope."
Xu Wenqian realized something and her face paled slightly, but soon she nodded again and her expression became firm.
"I need to know...I don't want to lose sleep over this anymore."
"That's okay."
For Zhou Wang, this matter was really a piece of cake.
"What is your boyfriend's name and occupation?"
But before taking out his phone, Zhou Wang asked first.
"His name is Cheng Zhe, and he works in IT at a furniture company."
Xu Wenqian said quickly.
Zhou Wang nodded, then took out his cell phone, found a contact and dialed it, then turned on the hands-free button and put it on the table.
"The sun is so bright, but I am in the mud... I think this love has long been torn to pieces, and the strong tide has made me retreat..."
The song of the ringtone rang, and Xu Wenqian saw a contact named "Brother B" displayed on the screen of her mobile phone.
The call was quickly connected, and a smiling male voice rang, "Brother Dog, call me so early, what are your instructions?"
"Brother B, are you busy? I have something to ask you?"
"Say it!"
"I remember you told me last time that your new high-end membership store, um, the one that does cosplay, is called the 'Golden Palace'?"
"Yeah, why, you finally want to come over and experience it?"
Wang Qiaobin chuckled, "But although we work 24 hours a day, it's really too early now. There are only a few technicians on duty. I'm afraid you won't like it. How about... you come back in the afternoon?"
Zhou Wang noticed that Xu Wenqian's face turned pale when she heard the word "technician", but there was still a little hope in her eyes.
Zhou Wang could probably guess what she was thinking, and after thinking for a while, he responded to Wang Qiaobin, "Let's talk about it next time. I just want to confirm with you, do we have a second Golden Palace in Mingcheng?"
"If you are talking about the bathing industry, then it is definitely gone. I have registered a trademark. Which grandson would dare to copy us?"
Wang Qiaobin also felt that Zhou Wang had another purpose at this time. He asked tentatively, "Brother Dog, has something happened?"
"It's just a little personal matter of mine... Well, Brother B, could you please help me check a name, maybe it's a member of your place?"
Zhou Wang considered it and said, "Of course, if it's inconvenient, forget it."
"Hey, you've already opened your mouth. Why bother? I happen to be checking the accounts in the store. Just tell me your name and I'll check it for you now!"
Wang Qiaobin first said something with a smile, and then asked casually, "Would you like to find out if this person is your friend, or..."
"Not a friend, not from our circle, just an ordinary office worker..." Zhou Wang vaguely understood what Wang Qiaobin really wanted to ask, and he smiled.
"Hmm, what's your name?"
"Cheng Zhe, the word Cheng next to the word "禾" means the philosophy of philosophy."
Zhou Wang glanced at the mobile phone Xu Wenqian held up and said.
"Wait a moment!"
The sound of typing on the keyboard came from the other end of the phone, and soon Wang Qiaobin's voice rang, "Is the end number of your phone 3638?"
Zhou Wang glanced at Xu Wenqian who was nodding again, and said "Yeah", "That's him."
"You are indeed a member of our store. Let me see...well, I applied for the card two years ago, so I can be considered an old member."
Xu Wenqian's body trembled, but Wang Qiaobin's voice continued.
"Don't tell me, these are really loyal customers of our club. In the past two years, their consumption has exceeded 100,000..."
"How much did you say?"
The pale-faced Xu Wenqian couldn't bear it anymore, grabbed the phone and asked.
Wang Qiaobin suddenly heard a woman's voice and was startled, but he still replied: "The records I can find here are more than 110,000, not including cash..."
"How could he have so much money?"
Xu Wenqian asked in disbelief, "How much is his monthly salary..."
"Well, sister, your question is a bit difficult for me. We open a store and do business, so we don't know where the customers' money comes from... However, there is one point that is quite interesting."
"What?"
Xu Wenqian grabbed the phone tightly.
"I took a look at the details. Most of the time Cheng Zhe charges his card is around the 15th. The 15th is the largest. The amount is about the same each time. It's always like 3,000 or 4,000, and occasionally it will exceed 5,000."
"No. 15..."
Xu Wenqian slumped on the ground and murmured with dull eyes, "That's when he pays his salary."
"Is there anything else you want to know?"
Seeing that there was suddenly no movement, Wang Qiaobin asked.
Xu Wenqian didn't know what she thought of, and quickly grabbed the phone again, like a drowning person grabbing the last straw.
"You...can you tell me what your store does?"
"..."
This question obviously confused Wang Qiaobin, and he didn't know how to answer it for a while.
If this call hadn't come from Zhou Wang, Wang Qiaobin would have scolded her...
Are you sick?
Zhou Wang knew Wang Qiaobin was in trouble, so he took the phone from Xu Wenqian's hand and said, "Brother B, thank you very much for today. I'll call you later."
"It's a small matter, I'll hang up first!"
Wang Qiaobin probably also knew that Zhou Wang had other things to deal with, so he hung up the phone quickly without saying anything more.
Zhou Wang put away his phone and turned to look at Xu Wenqian, who was staring at him and seemed unwilling to give up easily. He shook his head.
"Don't be stupid. You already know. If it were a pure green store, he wouldn't have spent that much just to kill him."
Then, Zhou Wang squatted down and came close to her, and in her ear, he said the cruelest truth in the calmest tone:
"If you insist on asking me, I can only tell you that it is... a place where a man can be drained dry."
