MTL - Self-cultivation of Male Supporting Role-Chapter 364 talent
Shi Yan said in his heart that the Xu family was a bottomless pit. After several years of subsidy, Lao Lao Wu did not feed them well. Instead, he felt that Xu Lao Wu was embarrassed for them to go out and let them carry them in the village. Don't start, I wish others would forget the fact that there is still a fifth in their family.
Xu Laowu's money can be taken correctly. As for Xu Laowu's people, they naturally hide as far as possible.
Each family has their own thoughts, Xu's father and Xu's mother favored the fourth child who could read and sweet-mouthed, and desperately squeezed the other brothers to support the fourth child to study.
If it weren't for the fact that the family was really poor, they couldn't even come up with a decent set of clothes, and no matter how much they thought, they couldn't fight for the family property.
Shi Yan knew in his heart that if Mrs. Miao's 10 taels of silver were taken back to Xu's house, it would definitely make the family uneasy.
But at the moment, the most restless one is Mrs. Miao. A few of them went home and unloaded the things from the car, and half the children in the alley came to the door to speak to the Xu family's parents.
It is a good time for half-year-old children to learn how to speak from adults. As long as they can write down what they say almost word for word, the crunch and crunch in their mouths like chewing peas will all come out baldly: "Grandma Xu's family. Said, if my Uncle Xu can't wait for next year to hug the big fat boy.
Then the child born last night can also be the son of Uncle Xu, and it will be time for Uncle Xu to regenerate in the future. "
After saying that he didn't move, Shi Yan stuffed a handful of candy and ran away happily.
As soon as he turned his head, he found that Mrs. Miao's face was blue with anger, and she observed his reaction with cautious, self-concealed eyes.
After dawdling for a long time, he asked Shi Yan tentatively: "Old fifth, why don't you go home and see what your plan is?"
If he is really interested in adopting his son, it means that he has no plans to continue marrying, which is a good thing for the Miao family.
Shi Yan snorted neither lightly nor heavily, and said with an unclear meaning: "Nothing can be done. If I want a son, it's not that I can't give birth to myself."
One sentence confuses the old lady, whether it is to be born or not, and there is no specific regulations.
He turned his head and said to Second Aunt Liu: "Go outside and ask, who doesn't say that the fifth is filial and that I am lucky, but the family seems to be dying, and the hard days are not over for a day, and the fifth is supporting the family business again in a blink of an eye. Woke up.
She treats my mother-in-law like my own mother, and trusts me to manage all my money.
In fact? I don't have to worry about eating and drinking, but I can't see the way forward! There is not a day when the heart is put on the ground to live in a down-to-earth way. This son-in-law can look everywhere now, but it just doesn't make people approachable.
If one day I close my eyes and can't wake up, I don't have the face to see my old man, and I don't know how to explain to him when I get there! "
Second Aunt Liu said in her heart, "I can see it clearly. With your temperament, you have to hang you with this carrot and let you honestly run towards the line drawn for you. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable." !
There is nothing wrong with what the owner has done!
"Isn't it right, can't you find out if you check it from the beginning?" Shi Yan didn't even plan to pay attention to Xu's parents and Xu's mother's whimsy. Holding the ledger left by Master Miao, Shi Yan intends to reorganize the previous accounts.
The reason is very simple. Those friends who had made friends before sent a letter to Shi Yan today, saying that they had met Yao Shi at the gate of the city.
This Yao Shi was one of the shopkeepers who ran away with money before. He was mainly responsible for managing the business of the rice noodle shop and won the trust of Miao Fenghua.
Shi Yan did not expect that he would dare to come back, but no matter what the purpose of his return was, Shi Yan did not intend to let this person go.
When I flipped through it, I found that there were too many problems in the book, and the fraud was very inadvertent. At a glance, I could see the crux of the problem, and many of the people who made the accounts were rich in their own pockets.
Although the amount involved is not large, no one can take advantage of Shi Yan when he doesn't want to, not anyone!
Coincidentally, Shi Yan hadn't looked for him yet, but people came to the door on their own initiative, swaggering, holding a folding fan, taking exaggerated steps, and slowly walked into Shi Yan's rice noodle shop.
After entering the store, he looked left and right, sometimes shaking his head, sometimes frowning, sometimes curling his lips, sometimes sighing, looking down on his eyes and having to look at it. When someone saw it, he thought his eldest daughter was getting along with the old man at the rice noodle shop. , so that he has suffering!
After pretending for a long time, seeing that no one was paying attention, after asking for no interest, he put away the folding fan with a snap, coughed and didn't know who's attention, and then said with his hands behind his back, "Is the shopkeeper here?"
What the people in the store should do, no one pays any attention.
Then he repeated uncomfortably: "Is the shopkeeper available?"
When the rice noodles came to the table, the guests no longer had any thoughts on the side, bury their heads in hard work, and have nothing to worry about. Who has time to pay attention to him?
This person had to raise his voice: "Where is the shopkeeper? Under Yao Shi, this time..."
Before he could finish speaking, something flew right in front of him, slammed into his shiny forehead with a bang, and then landed with a clatter. Before the person could react, he heard the impatient tone of the guest at the table in front of him. road:
"It's all right, don't you know how to take two steps by yourself? I'm standing there to block my lord from the sun!"
The one who can speak like this is Liu Gongzi of the county magistrate's family. Recently, he has become fascinated with basking in the sun and rubbing fans. After a long time, everyone will naturally leave him the best position to get the sun.
Yao Shi was displeased in his heart, but he still had the vision he should have. Although the person who did it ate a mouthful of oil, even the front of his clothes was stained with stains, which was very unsightly.
However, the shoes on his feet had dark patterns outlined by golden threads under the sunlight, and the clothes were even more rippling, smooth and dazzling, and the jade pendant on the hem of the waist was the size of a thumb, but it was a rare white mutton fat.
This outfit costs a few hundred taels to say the least, which is not something ordinary people can wear.
So he adjusted his facial expression, put on a smile, took two steps, bowed his hands in salute, apologized to the person, and tried to chat a few words. Being able to have a relationship with this person today is more valuable than making trouble with Shi Yan.
As soon as the words came out, the man with rice noodles was basking in the warm sun, immersed in the taste of happiness, and he didn't have time to pay attention to him at all.
Yao Shi was embarrassed with a hint of embarrassment, and he realized that he was the only one in the entire store who was standing and talking, and the rest were buried in their jobs.
Yao Shixin said, "It's like being smitten with rice noodles, and even the soul will fly away, it's just evil! It seems that the fact that this rice noodle shop can make money is true!
No one knows the specifics of the recipes left by the Miao family better than me. The taste is indeed good, but it is definitely not to this extent! There's no tricky stuff in it, and it's weird that it doesn't make people eat dirty things that can't be quit!
This is a taboo in the food industry! Shame on people!
Thinking like this, Yao Shi consciously took Shi Yan's handle and smiled confidently. Seeing that there was no room for him to sit, he didn't dislike it. He leaned against the door frame and said to Liu Erbo, who was quietly serving rice noodles, "I'll call you. When the shopkeeper comes out, you just need to tell him that I am Yao Shi, and I came here to clear the account today."
As soon as the name was mentioned, everyone in the room knew who it was. Even the hooligans who lived on the street knew that the three shopkeepers of the Miao family ran away with money. Take the Miao family into consideration.
However, at that time, the Miao family was supported by Miao Fenghua who was lying on the hospital bed, and Miao Fenghua was not very shrewd in business, so it was not surprising that the people under her team joined forces to deceive her.
Besides, everyone knew about Yao Shi's run away with money, but the Miao family couldn't produce any evidence. They could only knock down their teeth and swallow blood, and they couldn't tell the grievances.
Both parties understand this, so when facing Shi Yan, Yao Shi's words are also very tough: "I know what you added to the soup, if you don't want to be a rat in the street, you will obediently pay the money you owed to the supplier. It's over, this matter is over, and from now on, our well water will not cause river water."
After saying that, as if worried that Shi Yan didn't understand, he added, "You probably don't know, since the Miao family has been in charge of your wife, Miao Fenghua, Yao Miao has been the supplier of 80% of the goods.
As for Yao Miao, it is his cousin who is here, and today he is here to work hard for his cousin. I hope Boss Xu can make it easier! "
Shi Yan didn't even bother to talk about what Miao Fenghua had done, not only that the supplier was Yao Shi's cousin, the shopkeeper of the grocery store and Yao Shi were cousins, and the shopkeeper of the incense candle shop and the shopkeeper of the grocery store were in the same village.
Since the two shopkeepers were replaced in turn by Yao Shi's recommendation, the craftsmen of the incense candle shop were driven away, and the incense candles supplied by Yao Shi's cousin were replaced. Become a grocery store supplier.
One by one, wonderful.
On the contrary, the owner Miao Fenghua is like a tool person. The profit of the shop is going from bad to worse. She only thinks it is because she has no time to take care of the business during her illness. She has great trust in the shopkeepers.
And according to Shi Yan's guess, Miao Fenghua didn't know the relationship between the four at all.
Shi Yan nodded very educated: "You can pull your cousin Yao Miao, your cousin Wen Guang, and your cousin's cousin Yuan Boxuan in to share the Miao family's cup of soup, it's your ability, Fenghua. It was planted in your hands because she was not good at learning and could not blame others.
But Xu Xun didn't quite understand what you said about paying back the supplier's debt.
If Xu's memory is correct, Yao Miao brought someone to collect the debt that day, and her mother-in-law gave Yao Miao all the jewelry at the bottom of the box at a discount. There was evidence for this at the time. "
Shi Yan stood beside Yao Shi, glanced sideways, and said with a half-smile, "Enough is enough!"
Yao Shi took out a receipt from his sleeve and held it in front of Shi Yan with a smug tone, "I admit, of course I admit that it is written in black and white, look at this receipt, is it the handwriting of your wife Fenghua? ?
The money owed to the supplier at the beginning was 853 taels, and the fraction was wiped off for you, it was 850 taels. And your old lady's jewelry at the bottom of the box was sold to my cousin Yao Miao at a discount of 200 taels.
You still owe six hundred and fifty taels of silver, but because of a change in your family, and looking at your past friendship, you have given a grace period for half a year. "
After saying that, he looked back at the customers in the store, and said with a smile: "I heard that Boss Xu is making a lot of money every day. You don't think it's rare for us to have a little money, right?"
The account was settled a few days ago. The business of the Miao family has shrunk significantly in the hands of Miao Fenghua. In the first quarter, the supplier can owe three hundred taels of silver to the sky. Most of the old lady's jewelry is dowry, and a small part is Miao. The master bought it later, and if you count it seriously, it is also about a thousand taels.
That's it, I'm still not satisfied, I try to make one last slap in the face from Shi Yan.
Insatiable greed!
Shi Yan's face was not annoyed, he smiled and told Liu Erbo: "First take out the table I prepared this morning and put it by the door!
Then I will bring out the tea leaves that I have personally fried for everyone present.
Finally, take out the box that I asked you to bring out on purpose, let's go to the drums face to face, and clear the accounts one by one! I want to ask all of you here to be my testimony! "
Liu Erbo didn't know what the owner's purpose was, but seeing that Shi Yan was still able to talk to Yao Shi with a smile, he felt relieved to do so.
When others heard Shi Yanrang testifying, they became interested, especially Liu Gongzi, who was finishing his fanfic and fell into the state of a sage, motionless, and finally something caught his attention, so he naturally participated.
Then he said it all: "But after inquiring from the entire Bai'an County, there is no one who is more fair than this son. What is there to put on the table and say that this son will surely convince both parties!"
At this time, Yao Shi also knew Liu Gongzi's identity from other people's mouths. So he calmly complimented Young Master Liu and let Shi Yan be free.
That being the case, Shi Yan felt welcome.
When everything was ready, he took out an abacus generously contributed by the owner of the pawnshop across the street. As the abacus beads collided, he took out a five-finger-thick ledger from the box placed on the table.
"Ignoring the other two shops, this is the account of my Miao family's rice noodle shop for the past three years. Every stroke is written by Boss Yao. Look at Boss Yao, but is that so?"
This is naturally the case. Yao Shi roughly turned it over when he took it in his hand, and his heart became stable. He knew exactly where the ledger was fake and where there was a discrepancy, but when outsiders got it, every transaction was a reasonable income. .
How much profit he got from it, only he himself knows!
So I pushed it to Shi Yan with great confidence: "Since Boss Xu wants to do the math, I, Yao, are sitting upright, and I'm not afraid to investigate! Let everyone know what Yao is like!"
Shi Yan lifted the hem of his clothes and sat down. He gave Yao Shi a meaningful smile. The abacus beads began to crackle in everyone's ears. There was no problem at first.
Others only think that Shi Yan has changed a lot in the past few months, which is dizzying. Not only is he studying, but he is also so proficient in planning to do things like this accountant, and he has to admire it!
As a result, it was wrong to listen to it, only listening to what Shi Yan said: "Three years ago in late July, the daily expenditure on firewood, rice, oil and salt alone was 80 cents, which shows that the business is booming.
But I went to the shop next door and opposite to verify. At that time, the old lady in Beijing passed away, and all banquet activities were prohibited. There was almost no business in our entire street, so the account was wrong. "
"In mid-September of the same year, due to the hot weather and sluggish business, the daily backlog of rice noodles was damaged at about half a tael of silver for ten consecutive days. But I turned over the local chronicles and in September of that year, the royal family in the city set up a chastity memorial arch.
At that time, the weather was cool, and in order to celebrate the completion of the chastity archway, the Wang family invited the squires from the nearby counties to come and have a drink, which in turn drove the business of the whole street.
"Well, before the New Year's holiday, business will definitely be much better. The price of all items will rise, and the cost of rice noodles should rise by 20%, but didn't you say that you have stockpiled a lot of rice noodles in advance in order to cope with the price increase during the New Year's Day?
Why did he come to the front, as if he had forgotten what happened before, and bought a batch at a high price? "
"Oh, here it is said that the seasoning for Boss Zhou's house cost 18 or 25 dollars. I happened to be familiar with Boss Zhou and asked them to check the account. At that time, you only gave them 62 or 60 dollars, and their things It's only worth sixty-two or six dollars, as for the other money, please ask Boss Yao to come back and give me an explanation..."
"By the way, in view of your bad credit, I asked Boss Zhou to carefully check your spending with him in the past three years. The total amount is 3,212,500 yuan, but you have withdrawn from your account. I calculate, The total is one hundred and twenty-three twenty-five coins, I really wonder where the rest of the money went!"
"Also, in your bookkeeper Yao's account, each bundle of firewood is two coppers more expensive than others, let's just talk about it, there are eight or nine months every year.
You always order a lot of rice noodle ingredients three days in advance, and because of various reasons, you can't sell it, which leads to waste.
The problems here are more troublesome, and you have to calculate carefully…”
"Oh, and..."
"And here..."
When Shi Yan pointed out the first fault, everyone didn't show it on the face, but in fact he understood it in his heart. He was surrounded by business people. His family knew his own affairs. The eyes are gone, and the water is so clear that there are no fish.
But as more faults are picked out, the more complicated people see Yao Shi, how is it so simple to take a little advantage, this is completely emptying the master's house!
Has risen to the height of character and professional ethics!
They all made up their minds to stay away from this person in the future, so as not to be missed.
In addition, it is the admiration for Shi Yan: "The thought is meticulous, it takes a lot of work to just read the local chronicles, and it is a lot of work to compare with the account books of the surrounding shops.
Careful, patient, cautious, intelligent, all are indispensable. "
"It's really a character, stronger than Lao Miao, this son-in-law really made a profit!"
"If Lao Miao could think about it, and handed over the business directly to Brother Xu, what kind of situation would the Miao family be today!"
Yao Shi listened to the voices of these people, his brain was dazed, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, his legs were weak, and the world was spinning, and he was lying on the ground and could not get up.
Seeing this, Young Master Liu motioned to the boy waiting outside the door to help him up and go down with a ladle of cold water.
In a daze, he saw Shi Yan put a piece of paper full of words in front of him, and his ears were full of Shi Yan's annoying voice: "In this way, we can offset what our family owes your cousin. Six hundred and fifty taels, your boss Yao still needs to return one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three taels to my Miao family.
For the sake of our friendship in the past, if I give you a fraction, I'll pay you back 1,860 taels!
Do you think it's a direct payment to the banknote? Or go to the bank to withdraw money? I can wait.
Besides, since Young Master Liu is here, I am not at all worried about you running away again. Judging from my friendship with Young Master Liu, there is always a place for you in the county jail!
Shopkeeper Yao is a smart person, so he knows how to choose! "
Originally, he was prepared and asked for money after inquiring about everything, but Shi Yan grabbed the handle and wanted to go back for two thousand taels. Yao Shi couldn't stand the excitement and fainted again.
Shi Yan clicked his tongue: "With this quality, you still dare to come out and swindle money, is there no threshold for a liar to enter the industry?
This is your account, your cousin's, your cousin's, your cousin's same village has not yet calculated, I will give you a few days, and then wait for it! "
The corner of Liu Gongzi's mouth twitched, thinking that this liar is already one of the top talents in the industry! Be careful about making fake accounts! It's not that we are too incompetent, it's that the enemy is too cunning!
For the sake of twenty pennies, I checked the weather conditions of that period three years ago.
From the local chronicles, the poems written by local scholars, the words left by the people on the temple walls at that time, the mourning poems written by the parents and officials to the local squires, and the dictation of the elderly, they did everything they could to verify. All opponents must collapse.
Talent, really talent!
