Don't call me evil god

Chapter 683 Theft
Pete touched the investment certificate of the Gilded Club hidden in the package and fell into deep thought.

He seemed to have guessed where the gold coins had gone.

Marquis Madison and Rune Monger were close.

That being the case.

It is only natural for the other party to join the Gilded Club.

It seems reasonable to invest all the available gold coins in the Gilded Club.

A stable fixed income of 8% per year.

I'm afraid few people can resist the temptation it brings.

If you have extra money, investing it in the Gilded Club is like making good money.

But that's where the problem lies.

If you really want to withdraw the money, even if you don't use the principal invested, just extracting the profits should be enough to pay these farmers.

Or, think about it more extreme.

Since so much gold coins can be invested in the Gilded Club, the fixed annual income alone should be enough for someone like Marquis Madison to live a wealthy life, right?
Why did he still delay paying the gold coins to the farmers?

Could it be that Marquis Madison was too greedy?
The earnings are kept in the club, and after a year they will generate more earnings in the form of compound interest, so he is reluctant to take out any gold coins from it?
The more Pete thought about it, the weirder it became.

Thinking from another perspective, Pete soon realized a new problem:
"Now that the Marquis Madison is dead, what will happen to the gold coins he deposited into the Gilded Club?"

This is different from the bearer certificate of Miranda's father Vance.

Vance's investment was small, only 20 gold coins, and anyone with it could withdraw money from the Gilded Club.

However, large-value vouchers are different. You must be present in person and have your identity verified before you can obtain the gold coins.

While the head of the LG Chamber of Commerce is here, the other party is also someone from Rune Monge's industry, and he was invited by Prince Fradin, so his position is definitely not low.

In all likelihood, he knew how to handle a similar situation.

So Pete asked directly.

The other person's expression changed slightly.

After hesitating for a moment, he seemed a little embarrassed:

"Sir, you'd better ask the person in charge of the Gilded Club about this question."

"Normally, these things would be included in his estate and calculated together when the estate is settled."

"However, there are some issues that need to be dealt with at the Gilded Club recently, so it may not be possible to liquidate in a short period of time."

Pete was stunned.

An ominous premonition came over me.

"What do you mean there are some issues that need to be dealt with?"

he asked.

The person in charge said slowly and reluctantly:

"The warehouse of the Gilded Club was recently robbed. The thief has not yet been caught, but the Gilded Club has lost a large number of stored investment certificate records as a result."

"To be on the safe side, and to ensure that the club members' wealth is not stolen or misappropriated by thieves, the Gilded Club will temporarily stop accepting cash withdrawal applications until they have checked, sorted, and restored the lost investment certificates."

Pete's heart skipped a beat.

"Not accepting it for the time being? How long is temporarily?"

The person in charge immediately said:

"I'm not in charge of that area, so I'm not sure." "But if nothing goes wrong, it should be sorted out soon, no more than a month!"

The person in charge said this sincerely: "Please don't worry, both the LG Chamber of Commerce and the Gilded Club are still as reliable and trustworthy as before."

"The theft was an accident. After learning the news, we have comprehensively strengthened supervision and security to ensure that similar incidents will never happen again."

"As for the specific details of the incident at the Gilded Club, once the investigation is complete and the thief is caught, all information will be made public."

……

Pete didn't continue to waste time arguing with the head of the LG Chamber of Commerce who was brought in by Prince Fladin.

Instead, he hurriedly pulled the prince and quickly left the Marquis's manor, and immediately took the carriage back to the royal capital.

Because the news that Gale discovered was just transmitted through the instant messenger.

"Hey! We got some big news here, Pete!"

"The vault of the Gilded Club was robbed, and the thieves stole a large number of investment certificate records!"

"A large number of investigators have come to the Liuxing Mercenary Group's headquarters. They are all Rune Monger's men!"

“They’ve cleared this place out and quarantined it!”

"The reason is that the people from the Liuxing Mercenary Group are highly suspected of being the thieves who stole the vault of the Gilded Club!"

"They want to investigate this place and collect clues!"

"What the hell, this matter is actually related to the Gilded Club? The people from the Liuxing Mercenary Group stole and absconded, is this true?!"

The moment he received the news, Pete felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck his brain, lighting up his mind.

Some things that I couldn’t figure out or understand before suddenly became clear at this moment!
Everything about the Gilded Club and Rune Monger, starting from Green Harbor;
After arriving in the royal capital, they experienced various events;
There was also the fire at the Marquis's manor and the disappearance of the Marquis Madison;
In addition, all members of the Liuxing Mercenary Group left the capital and their whereabouts were unknown;
And... the news just received about the "theft" of the Gilded Club!

"Gail!"

On the way back to the capital, Pete couldn't wait to use the instant messenger to quickly communicate with Gale:
"Do you still remember what you said to me in Green Harbor, in Rune Monger's newly built luxurious holiday estate?"

"…What?" Gale's reply was a little slow, as if he couldn't remember.

"You told me at the time that the Gilded Club could guarantee an 8% income every year. It sounded incredible because normal investments wouldn't make that much money, right?"

This time Gail responded much more promptly: "Oh! You mean that!

"Anyway, I don't think I can do anything that guarantees a profit every time I invest."

"When it comes to investing, who knows whether you can make money in the future? It's normal to have both losses and gains, and most people lose money!"

"If everyone can make money through investment as long as they have money, then it would be too easy to become a millionaire. All you have to do is continue to invest all the money you earn."

"I actually want to know how Rune Monger did it. Where should he use his money to make money from money and earn so much money stably."

Pete excitedly sent the edited message:
"Hey, let me tell you!"

"Is there a possibility, I mean possibility!"

"Monger can't even earn a stable return of more than 8% every year!"

After a while, Gale sent a reply to Pete with just one symbol:
"?"
