Professional Ethics of a Concubine

"Auntie Ye, don't try to test me." Zhang Jingyi said in a deep voice.

"Our Marquis is not a playboy who is confused. I have everything under control in the harem. I will let you fight and quarrel with each other as it is harmless and I will not interfere.

But you also know what happened last night. Once you touch my bottom line, it will be a storm and you will die.

Since I asked you to help me check the accounts and manage the household, it means that I know that you are capable and a well-behaved person, and you will not covet the position of mistress.

I know you are smart, and I temporarily believe in your loyalty, so I will protect you. As long as you have no intention of harming me, I am willing to give you face and protect you like a master.

In my opinion, your favor is better than that of other women in the harem.

Aunt Ye, if you want to be my woman, you must be favored by the Marquis, help me secure the position of mistress, and help Brother Yu inherit the title in the future.

I can also promise you that when you give birth to a child in the future, you will raise it, but it can be registered under my name and he (she) will be given a legitimate status. How about that? "

Ye Qingzhi,...

What a big cake!

The lady is really generous and willing to give her child a legitimate status.

Moreover, her custody rights will not be deprived.

Any concubine who heard such a promise would probably be grateful to the lady and serve her wholeheartedly.

But she is a professional worker, and her greatest ability is to accept the big pie handed over by her boss with a smile, while staying sober and seeking tangible benefits for herself.

I was unwilling to do it before because I didn't see any extra benefits. Now that my wife has shown her attitude and revealed the remuneration, we can talk about it again.

As I said, as long as the pay is right, there is no job that a worker cannot do!

Her career goal is to sleep with the Marquis and conquer his wife, so that the two leaders can protect her and ensure that she lives a leisurely life.

In order to achieve this career goal, you have to work hard. How can you get high rewards without any effort? There is no such a cheap thing in the world.

"I am deeply touched that Madam values ​​you so much, and I am willing to be your person."

Ye Qingzhi smiled and said,

"It's just that I am lazy by nature and hate repeating meaningless things. Madam, why don't you exempt me from paying respects every day?"

Workers hate this kind of boring meeting and would avoid attending it if possible.

"Okay, but if I need you for something, you can't refuse." Zhang Jingyi agreed.

Ye Qingzhi didn't need this to maintain her dignity as a mistress. In fact, she was also impatient to meet and drink tea with those concubines every day.

"Of course." Ye Qingzhi smiled and said, "I will help Madam to check the accounts and deal with the big house. When the old lady gets angry, Madam can't turn her face and push me out to take the blame."

"Don't worry about that. As long as you are always so useful and loyal to me, I won't do something like killing the cook after having a full stomach."

Zhang Jingyi also promised seriously.

"Madam, I want to go to Xiangguo Temple tomorrow. I have already reported it to you, Master. Is that okay?" Ye Qingzhi asked again.

"No problem." Zhang Jingyi nodded patiently and asked her, "Any other requests?"

"If I were to check seven years of old accounts by myself, I would never be able to finish them even if I died of exhaustion." Ye Qingzhi stopped talking about checking the accounts.

"I want to see the accountants under Madam, and I want the power to mobilize the stewards in the mansion to question them.

In addition, if the accountant is not available, I am afraid I will have to mobilize external aid and find some people from the Ye family."

"Okay, there's no problem with that." Zhang Jingyi was also happy to delegate authority on this matter.

Since the madam was so cooperative and giving face, Ye Qingzhi naturally also used her professional abilities to do her job well.

Her professional ability was a blessing bestowed upon her by the original owner and Mrs. Lin, which made her good at reading and checking accounts.

In addition, there is her own project management ability. When working on a large auditing project like this, managing and making good use of the people under her is more important and more effective than doing the work herself.

Facing the Madam, the female leader, Ye Qingzhi showed none of the delicate and artificial demeanor she had shown with the Marquis, and was instead efficient and competent in handling official business.

After breakfast, accompanied by his wife, he met the three accountants and several managers in the mansion, and handed over all matters and powers. Ye Qingzhi then brought the people and account books back to Yanliuyuan.

The first thing Ye Qingzhi did after returning to Yanliuyuan was to order the yard to be sealed off.

Without her permission and before all the account books were checked, the accountants and several capable managers were not allowed to leave the yard.

Whenever there was something going on, he would let his maids and servants act as messengers.

Ask the maid to clear out two side rooms to be used as workrooms for the next few days, and the back room to be used as their resting and sleeping place.

Ye Qingzhi then instructed Chunyu to ask the small kitchen to make some snacks.

As for the three meals, they were still taken from the big kitchen. She paid some money to give these people extra meals and then asked her wife to reimburse her afterwards.

Although she had money, this was a project and a business trip, so of course all expenses had to be reimbursed and she couldn't be taken advantage of.

"Mother Zhao, you are someone the Madam trusts. In the next few days, you will have to stay in my Yanliu Courtyard to supervise them in checking the accounts."

After Ye Qingzhi arranged the work space and logistical support, she spoke to Mother Zhao beside her.

"It's all at the disposal of Aunt Ye." Mother Zhao said respectfully.

Originally, she had been advised by the lady to listen to Aunt Ye. In addition, Aunt Ye was favored, capable and resourceful, so Mother Zhao respected her from the bottom of her heart.

The other concubines in the mansion did not receive such treatment.

"Mr. Accountants, please follow me."

Ye Qingzhi picked up three account books at random, looked through them herself, understood the problems in them, and then used these three account books to test them.

After the test, Ye Qingzhi was quite satisfied. The lady had put a lot of thought into selecting the accountants, and they were all capable.

The three accountants were tested and learned that Madam Ye was different from the Madam. She was an expert in account books and they could not fool her, so they could not help but be more alert.

“You must know that it is your good fortune to be able to work as an accountant under the Madam. As long as you are loyal to the Madam and do your job properly, not only will you gain benefits, but you will also be able to take care of your own children and grandchildren.

This time, checking the old accounts is a great opportunity for you to show your abilities. If you do well, you will be rewarded and reused in the future. But if you don’t do well, you will be punished!”

The three accountants became nervous and knelt down to show their loyalty.

After Ye Qingzhi finished giving the leader a speech, she started to assign tasks directly, telling the accountants how to check the accounts, where to check, and how to reconcile the accounts.

Now that the work has been assigned, Ye Qingzhi can't just ignore it.

She picked up a few account books and looked at them. When she got tired, she took a break to eat a snack. When she felt sleepy, she took a nap. Although it was not as leisurely as before, she was not too tired either.

I can totally handle the intensity of the work.

After dinner, she checked the accountants' work progress and results for the day.

After checking, Ye Qingzhi became dissatisfied and complained that their work efficiency was too low.

Ye Qingzhi is not the kind of leader who can only grumble and pass the buck but not do anything.

She personally demonstrated to the accountants how to check accounts, write audit summaries, etc.

After all the operations, the accountants learned a lot, were convinced, and worked harder.

Seeing that they took the initiative to work overtime and stayed up late to check the accounts, Ye Qingzhi was not stingy and gave each of them one penny of overtime pay on the spot.

There was also midnight snack supply, which made the three accountants even more moved. They worked like crazy until 3:15 am in the middle of the night before going to rest.

Ye Qingzhi can only be considered a project manager. After checking the progress of the work, she also has to write a simple work report to her wife.

After finishing writing, Ye Qingzhi gave it to Mother Zhao and asked her to deliver it to the lady. Then she prepared to take a shower and go to bed.

Who would have thought that the Marquis would come just as I lay down.

Ye Qingzhi,...

This is the fulfillment and happiness of working two jobs. I really like it. It feels like I have done something wrong in my previous life.
