Chapter 71 Schadenfreude

Wen Jinghan's genius was a stroke of genius, not playing cards according to the rules obviously caught the stewards by surprise, but all the people here are old people who have worked hard in the mall with Master Qin for decades, and it is not easy to handle .

The stewards' faces were ugly, and they were embarrassed, but they still maintained their composure.After exchanging glances with each other, in order not to show timidity in front of the young master and his colleagues in charge, someone really stood up and spoke.

The first one to stand up was naturally Manager Xu of Duobao Pavilion, because Mrs. Qin had checked his account two months ago, and had a confrontation with the young master in front of him.At that time, he pushed everything to the inner accountant and the young master himself. In the next two months, in order to look good, he added 2000 taels of silver to the account every month, which made the account book look much better.

Steward Xu dared to say that among all the stewards in the house, his income in the account must be one of the best, so he was naturally confident and bold to stand up first, and at the same time he could sell his colleagues around him.He stood up generously and cupped his hands to Wen Jinghan and said, "Young Master must still remember me. Xu is the steward of Duobao Pavilion. This season, Duobao Pavilion's income is 100 taels."

Six thousand 100 taels is not too little, but for Duobao Pavilion, it is definitely not too much.Wen Jinghan is not a woman like Mrs. Qin who is confined to a boudoir, nor is she a dude who doesn't know the world like Qin Yi, so she is not satisfied with this number!

Picking up the teacup and taking a sip casually, Wen Jinghan only responded with the word "oh" lightly, without saying a word, and didn't even glance at Guanshi Xu.Although this made Manager Xu lose face, it also made everyone clearly see her dissatisfaction.

Manager Xu's face was ugly, but because he remembered the successful throwing of the pot last time, he repeated his tricks and said: "Young Master, don't be dissatisfied, this time you are getting married and preparing a dowry, and you can take things from any shop you go to." , There are a lot of good things in my Duobao Pavilion, you just took them away and left holes. Don’t say that Duobao Pavilion’s accounts this season are not good, other shops are the same.”

This time, Wen Jinghan had already made up her mind, so she naturally took her time.She put down the teacup and picked up the folding fan again, glanced lightly at Guanshi Xu, and said, "Of course I know that. At that time, I asked Qin An to record what shop I took from and how much it was worth. Turn around Just let him take that ledger and reconcile it with yours."

Numerous holes and bottomless pits have different meanings.

Manager Xu didn't expect the young master to learn how to keep accounts, so he couldn't help being taken aback, and then opened his mouth but he had nothing to say.

Wen Jinghan didn't look at him either, but turned to look at the other stewards who were sitting, and said casually, "I've made a note of Steward Xu of Duobaoge, everyone, please continue."

In fact, with Guanshi Xu at the beginning and the dowry as the end, the rest of the people also have a plan in their hearts.They sit together in this main hall, each other's business is considered top-notch, and the income can be compared, it doesn't matter if there is a few hundred taels or a few hundred taels.As for the account, it's fine to change it later, but the Qin family's internal account was dragged into the water last time, how to let the money enter the internal account quietly is the trouble.

Trouble is trouble, but right now the most important thing to deal with is the young master in front of him, so the stewards also stepped forward one after another.There are a total of twelve stewards present here, all of whom are in charge of well-known shops in Luocheng, and the reported income ranges from 7000 taels to 5000 taels. Generally speaking, the gap is not too big. Obviously, they are following steward Xu. Reported.

These stewards are of one mind, but it seems that none of the twelve people still care about the Qin family.But it is true, it is said that money can move people's hearts, the more money passed by, the harder it is naturally to stick to one's heart.

Wen Jinghan listened to them quietly, noncommittal from beginning to end.After each of the stewards stood up, she only glanced casually, then turned her head and played with the folding fan in her hand again. All the stewards thought that she was asking them to show their prestige because she was in charge of the family business for the first time, but they didn't know She has kept people and words in her heart.

Of the twelve stewards, each of them stood up and couldn't say a few words, and they finished speaking in a short time.Seeing that she hadn't said a word, everyone felt more relaxed. After the stewards finished speaking, everyone turned their attention to Wen Jinghan.

Wen Jinghan still didn't say a word. Seeing that there was no movement in the hall, she looked up and asked with a blink of an eye, "Is that the end?" Before everyone could twitch their mouths, she waved her hand again and said: "Okay then, the steward who took the lead finished talking, and the rest of you come one by one."

That tone, that demeanor, it's a joke.

However, among the shopkeepers in the room, I really hope that the young master will do well, at most, it is only one out of ten, while the others wish her to be more confused and playful.So many people cheered up seeing this, but they didn't pay much attention to the person in front of them.

……

This meeting can almost be called anticlimactic. At the beginning, everyone was shocked by the "little master"'s amazing strokes, but in the end, it was just a self-introduction by each of them, and it just passed smoothly. up.

The new official of Dudao took office three times, but the newly promoted Patriarch never complained to anyone. In the end, he just waved the folding fan and threw it down leisurely: "It's getting late, everyone, go home and eat. Oh, By the way, you guys talked too much just now, I can't even remember who is who, let someone send over the account book tomorrow, and let's think of it as an early check this month."

It is easy to say that there are more than a hundred stewards, but it actually takes a lot of time to see them all.In addition, today's summoning was originally the young couple's impromptu idea, so it's not too early for Qin An to call everyone.

By the end of the game, it was already sunset.Except for the dozen or so stewards who were eager to go back and do the accounts again, and even more anxious to find excuses for the missing holes, today's meeting was nothing to the others.

Wen Jinghan went back to the screen in the main hall, and the purpose of entering was the drowsy appearance of the young master holding his chin.Funny and helpless, she took two steps forward, turned the folding fan and patted the opponent's shoulder lightly.

Qin Yi trembled all over, and immediately woke up, opened his eyes and showed a cute smile at Miss Wen.Even though his eyes were still blurred, he insisted on saying stiffly: "I didn't sleep, really!"

Miss Wen originally favored her daughter's family, and was always tolerant towards women. Seeing her like this, she really wanted to be annoyed, but she couldn't get angry, so she could only turn into helplessness in the end.After that, she didn't ask questions, but said earnestly: "Ayi, this is all your family property, and it will be handed over to you sooner or later. How can you be so careless?!"

The young master lowered his head, kneaded a corner of his clothes with his fingers, and said with aggrieved tone, "But it's really boring. There are so many stewards, but I can't remember who they are all at once. Which shop do you manage?"

Wen Jinghan said helplessly: "Take your time." After a pause, she said softly: "Maybe you don't need to remember them either."

Qin Yi didn't understand yet, but Wen Jinghan didn't intend to explain anything now, so he took the other party up and said, "Okay, it's getting late, let's go back to have dinner first. If you are still sleepy, go to bed early at night .”

The young master was taken away obediently, and when his eyes fell on the hands that they were holding, he realized belatedly - in just a few days, the two of them seem to have gotten used to holding hands?

His thoughts drifted away, and his heart felt inexplicably sweet, but the young master still couldn't figure out where the sweetness came from.So when she followed Wen Jinghan back to Qiushui Residence, she still talked about what happened before, and she asked, "Jinghan, you met so many stewards today, do you remember who they are?"

The young master is slightly face blind, and if the first meeting is uneventful, it will be difficult for her to remember the other person's appearance.Not to mention, it's hard for anyone to remember the other person's last name, whether or not they know each other next time they meet.

Wen Jinghan is different, her memory has always been good, even if she can't call it a photographic memory, she is not far behind.So after hearing Qin Yi's question, she nodded her head as a matter of course and said: "Of course I remember. I also wrote down the accounts reported by them, and I will go to the study to list them later, and I will send them to them tomorrow." Ledger check."

The young master expressed his shock, his eyes were wide open, and he looked at Miss Wen with reverence.

Wen Jinghan didn't notice this, and reminded the other party on his own: "You fell asleep later, the twelve stewards should have read it carefully before. I saw the account book of Zuifenglou two months ago. I’ve seen it, it’s only 300 taels, but today it’s 500 taels. There’s also Ming Fu Lou, although I don’t know what’s wrong with Ming Fu Lou, but when Yun Yan first reminded me, I was told to pay attention to Ming Fu Lou… "

Talking on and on all the way, the moment she stepped into Qiushuiju, Ms. Wen realized that she would have such a talkative day... This babbling appearance is almost like an old lady!

Wen Jinghan suddenly stopped talking, but Qin Yi didn't seem to notice it, and said naturally: "Today, you suddenly asked those stewards to report the accounts in public, and the amount reported by those sitting here is much higher than what is written in the account book. There should be more, and they need to send the account book to check tomorrow, these people are busy tonight."

Seeing the schadenfreude on Qin Yi's face, Wen Jinghan somehow relaxed, and she chuckled: "It's more than that. All they can change is the accounts that haven't been settled with the Qin family this month, the accounts of the last two months It has already been checked by your mother, and it has also been included in the internal account. It is not so easy to change it. But if you don’t change it, the difference between this month and the previous two months is too big, let alone justified..."

There are quite a lot of businesses under the name of the Qin family, such as Duobaoge Zuifenglou, which is making a lot of money every day, and pawnshops and grain shops, which rely on luck to eat or make small profits. Less than a hundred taels.

Wen Jinghan didn't have the energy to target everyone at once, so he could only take the big head first—the twelve stewards sitting in the hall today, except for Steward Xu of Duobao Pavilion, I'm afraid they all had to make a fuss. , the account book delivered tomorrow will definitely be more interesting.

The author has something to say: I'm a little sleepy, come on, everyone, wake me up with enthusiasm, and keep adding updates tonight (I'm afraid I'll be lazy if I stop, and I won't be able to find the rhythm of adding updates
