Chapter 83 Kill the chicken to warn the monkey
Before Qin Yi studied business with Wen Jinghan, some things were obviously more urgent.
It was only seven days since Wen Jinghan asked the stewards to hand over the account books, and the stewards of the Qin family were summoned to the Qin residence again.As soon as everyone entered the main hall, they noticed the difference from the last time - last time there were at least twelve chairs in the main hall besides the main seat. There was nothing but a chair.
The so-called bird of a feather flocks together and people are divided into groups. With so many managers in the Qin family, they naturally divided many circles unconsciously.So as the stewards arrived one after another, one circle after another gradually formed in the main hall, and everyone gathered together in twos and threes to gossip.
In fact, looking at the scene today, everyone had some speculations in their hearts, and someone said: "The meeting ended so hastily last time, I really thought it was just like that, I didn't expect the young master to put his power on today."
Someone next to him said, "It's not just about getting off the horse, I think there are three fires for the new official to take office, and today they are about to burn."
Thinking about the entire year's account book that was suddenly asked to hand in before, many people also raised their hearts, but more people still didn't care: "We are all old people of the Qin family, and the young master wants to be in the Qin family. How can it be so easy to find someone to stand up among us?!"
Someone heard this and reminded in a weak voice: "A few days ago we handed in the account book for the whole year..."
But someone sneered: "You said it was the account book for the whole year, not a family, so many accounts, can the young master calculate it?!" After speaking, he slightly lowered his voice, but the volume was still enough to spread to everyone around him. In people's ears: "Let's talk about our young master, who knows how to play all day long, can he understand the dial of the abacus?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone who heard them laughed, and there was obvious disdain in that laughter.But after laughing, the well-informed person still said: "I heard that the young master went to the next door to hire helpers and came back. There are seven or eight accountants!"
Who is next door?Next door is the famous writer's family, who is also the young master's Yue's family!
Leaving aside the matter of Mr. Accountant, the mere fact that the young master asked the next door for help was enough to make many people thump in their hearts.Those who stretched out their hands to the shop, those who were too greedy, began to look ugly at this moment, and then someone gritted their teeth and said: "So what, in just a few days, I don't believe that these accountants still have a lot of money. If you are capable, check out the accounts of nearly a hundred of our shops!"
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.Although I have to admit that this is true, but since the young master chose to call everyone together today, it is impossible to be aimless.Now the only thing they can pray for is that the accounts found by the young master are not their own.
At the same time, many people regretted it in their hearts. If they had known that this dandy young master would be responsible for auditing the accounts after he was in charge, they should have put more thought into it in the first place. Yes, but who made Mrs. Qin, who is in charge, be such a muddled half-assed person? After a long time, the managers don't want to bother with her, and they don't even care about making false accounts.
Not long after, news of the young master borrowing the accountant of the Wen family spread in the main hall, and the originally relaxed atmosphere suddenly became serious.The stewards no longer looked casual, but instead became preoccupied.
Wen Jinghan appeared in the main hall at this time...
She walked step by step, with a calm expression, calm and calm, and she never saw the idleness and carelessness of the last time.Everyone watched her pass by in a daze, until the other party came to stand in front of the main seat, and then realized that this young master seemed to be quite different from what they had imagined!
As soon as Wen Jinghan turned around, she had a panoramic view of everyone's different expressions. She raised her eyebrows without saying a word, and sat down on the main seat without saying a word.It is still unceremonious, but compared with the last time, "Little Master" no longer has that lazy slack that makes people look down on him, but has an unspeakable power, as if she is blind at the moment. Dust is a matter of course.
It was indeed as it should be, the identities of the master and the steward determined the dignity of the two parties in the main hall.No matter how young the master is, and no matter how capable the steward is, the master is still the master, and the subordinates are still subordinates.
Wen Jinghan was able to clearly position herself, so she didn't feel uncomfortable because the hundred or so people opposite her were older than her.She naturally raised her chin slightly, and asked in a majestic tone: "Are all the stewards here?"
It could be seen that everyone treated her more seriously this time.Hearing her question, some of the stewards stepped forward and cupped their hands, and responded politely: "Master, everyone is here, what instructions do you have?"
The stewards are also human beings, they can think highly of themselves, or they can lower their attitude in a flash.
Wen Jinghan was not surprised by the change in everyone's attitude, but she didn't intend to make any false claims with these people, so she nodded and shouted outside: "Qin An, come in."
The stewards, who were almost packed in the main hall, turned sideways to make way for one after another, but Qin An was not the only one who came in from this road.In fact, the people who came in were only led by Qin An, followed by two servants, who were working together to carry a large desk, on which were clearly placed stacks of thick ledgers.
The two servants brought the case table directly in front of Wen Jinghan, put it down neatly, but did not exit the main hall, but turned around and stood beside the case table with Qin An.
Everyone's heart sank when they looked at the ledger, but when they settled down and looked at the number of ledgers, many people secretly breathed a sigh of relief—they, shop managers, naturally knew how many ledgers there were in a year. The number is only five or six shops at most, so among the hundred or so people, the seizures may not necessarily fall on their own heads.
Wen Jinghan glanced at the ledger, then at the stewards, with a calm expression: "I think by now, everyone should understand why you are called here today, right?"
The stewards looked at each other in blank dismay, because there are indeed too few people who stick to their original intentions and are not greedy, and everyone is somewhat guilty at this moment.However, compared with these little stewards, the stewards of the twelve families who refused to hand over the accounts for the whole year are much calmer. After all, the three-month account books are not enough to explain anything. Anyway, their accounts are all delayed. If it is handed over, no matter how they check the account, they will not be able to find it.
But no matter what, no one stood up at this time, so as not to accidentally arouse the resentment of everyone.
Fortunately, Wen Jinghan was not surprised, let alone cared.She leaned forward slightly, her white and slender fingers tapped lightly on the thick account book with a blue cover, and she didn't make any sound, but for no reason, the heartstrings of everyone watching this scene began to tighten.
When the atmosphere in the main hall gradually became tense, Wen Jinghan said without hesitation: "A few days ago, I asked Qin An to go to you to collect the account books for this year. There are too many accounts, and they have not been settled yet. But forgive me. That's the case, the accountant I invited also told me that there are too many loopholes in these accounts, which are not complete or true. Among them, the ones that have just been calculated are very shocking."
While talking, Wen Jinghan raised her hand and started flipping through the ledger page by page. Because of the distance and the speed of turning pages, everyone couldn't see the contents of the ledger clearly.However, everyone has seen the cinnabar circle drawn by a brush stroke. Such a dense circle, such a bright red and dazzling color, is really as Wen Jinghan said...shocking!
Wen Jinghan saw that many people had cold sweat on their foreheads, obviously frightened by the dense loopholes found in these ledgers—because Mrs. Qin didn't know how to ask someone to check the accounts, and she herself was a half-assed person, so everyone's fake Accounts are also done carelessly.They knew this, but they didn't expect so many problems to be found in this book, and they didn't know if the book in front of them belonged to them?
In all likelihood, the stewards in the main hall began to feel uneasy, but Wen Jinghan didn't show off too much. Seeing that the scaring was almost done, she began to point to the account book and said: "The profit on the account of Qin Ji Liang Bank for the whole year is It was 300 taels, and after investigation, the income was at least 800 taels. The annual profit of Qinji Pharmacy was only 500 taels, but the income was as high as 2000 taels. The profit of Qinji Tea Shop was 200 taels , it was found out that the income was [-] taels. There are also Qin Ji Wine Shop, Qin Ji Pawnshop..."
Wen Jinghan counted the stacks of ledgers in detail, and the managers who were selected turned pale in an instant, while those who were not selected gradually relaxed.In the end, Wen Jinghan slapped heavily on a stack of ledgers. She raised her head and accurately found the shop stewards in the crowd: "Steward Zhou, Steward Qi, Steward Wang, Steward Feng, Manager Chen, aren't you going to come out and explain?"
The face of the steward who was pointed out suddenly became even more ugly, and the others were also taken aback. Obviously, they didn't expect that the young master had already recorded all these people--it is not important to write down the names, this can be checked later. But since she was able to recognize the person in the crowd, it was obvious that she had written down the person's appearance and the corresponding shop during the last meeting.
The young master's difficulty was obviously beyond everyone's expectations.
Wen Jinghan waited for a while but didn't wait for the "explanation" from these stewards, she showed a little impatience on her face, she lifted her body and sat back upright.When he spoke again, his tone was a bit cold: "Since you don't want to explain to me, then go and explain to others."
After saying this, without waiting for everyone to react, Wen Jinghan waved at Qin An who was beside him, and said, "Grab it and send it to the official!"
As soon as these words came out, the people in the hall were not calm.Especially after Qin An summoned seven or eight servants as soon as he opened his mouth, and rushed into the crowd like tigers in a flock to catch those stewards, even Steward Zhang and Steward Yu couldn't help but follow suit. Change.
Among the laws of the current dynasty, the punishment for corrupting ink is the most severe. Not to mention how officials in the court deal with corrupting ink, but those who commit crimes like theirs and corrupt the money of the master's family, will have to peel off a layer of skin first when they are sent to the government!But businessmen have always been tactful, and most ordinary people still do things on the front line, and they will not do things to the extreme, so it is actually quite rare for subordinates to be sent to officials by the main family.
Everyone was stupefied by Wen Jinghan's decisiveness. It wasn't until Wen Jinghan reminded Qin An to bring the account book with him again that the stewards came back to their senses.Some people have suddenly understood that this is killing chickens to scare monkeys, but as the "monkey", they are indeed frightened.
Someone tremblingly pleaded for mercy, and naturally couldn't say anything from the unclear account book, so they turned to talking about "family ugliness should not be publicized", "you have to forgive others and forgive others", "there is suffering without credit." Law" and so on.
Mrs. Qin is soft-hearted, but the "Master Qin" in front of her is obviously not!
Wen Jinghan's face remained calm, and the corner of her mouth even curled up slightly.She patiently listened to everyone's pleadings, then waved her hand at Qin An and said, "Everyone has been arrested, and the ledger is here, what are you waiting for there?!"
Frightened by Wen Jinghan's aura at this moment, Qin An subconsciously shrunk his neck, then reacted, and immediately greeted the guards escorted by the guards, and moved the account book, and retreated from the main hall in minutes.From the looks of it, he is indeed going to be sent to the official.
In the main hall, the stewards turned green when they saw this scene, but Wen Jinghan said lightly: "If you do something wrong, you have to admit it. Those stewards just bullied me when I was young, and they didn't even admit their mistakes perfunctorily." No. But I can be bullied when I am young, but the laws of the imperial court are really there, they don’t want to tell me, so naturally they can only go to the government to talk about it.”
Ms. Wen, who was born as an official, is actually more willing to use the law to talk about things. Although the official residence in Los Angeles does not look so clean, but she has her father and the Wen family as the backing, and people who want to come to the official residence dare not blatantly cover it up.
Wen Jinghan's behavior was somewhat unexpected, but smart people also heard some other meanings from Wen Jinghan's words.It's just that the first fire has just burned out, but no one dares to stand up and make trouble at this moment. How can they know that if they can't say a word, they will be burned?
The author has something to say: Everyone, please be more enthusiastic, there will be a second watch drop at night, we have to clean up the mess before we can talk about love with peace of mind
