suspected wife

In the backyard wing room, Zhou Yanqing buried her head in a pile of account books, her fingers were flying, and the beads of the abacus were crackling.

"Here we come." Hearing footsteps, he didn't lift his head.

Qiao Mingjin was also polite, and sat across from him, glanced at the stacked account book next to him, shook her head, it would be more work for those who are capable.

"Don't you have a accountant? I want you, the sixth master, to do it yourself."

"It's the end of the year, and Zhuangzi from all the shops have sent account books. The accountant in the mansion just wished he had two more hands. There is no one to send them. Some important accounts, I have to come in person."

"You don't need to send New Year gifts to Beijing this year?"

"No need. I have already been to Beijing twice this year. This year I sent abacus, pulleys, and root carvings to Jingli, which are more expensive than in previous years. This year's gift is not prepared, and there is no second opinion in Beijing. How can I use it?" Can I go north again in the wind and snow?"

That's right, those things from her hands have already made the Zhou family in Beijing look good.Besides, this guy seems to be more afraid of the cold than she is, if he can't go, he will avoid it far away, so he is not willing to work hard on himself.

Qiao Mingjin smiled.Randomly flipping through the pile of account books, there are general ledgers, subsidiary ledgers, ledgers, shop books, and estate books, with different thicknesses, and there are two piles on the left and right.

Qiao Mingjin casually took the top one and flipped through it. It was densely piled up in black and black, and even the numbers were piled up in traditional Chinese characters.

Although this account is done meticulously, it makes people dizzy.

Qiao Mingjin pointed to the one-foot-high account books on both sides of the table: "How long do you want to look at these two piles of account books?"

"It will take two days to read it. It will take a day and a half at the earliest."

Qiao Mingjin pouted.

Such two piles of account books are only twenty or thirty books.Two more days?Tut tut.No wonder the accountants in the mansion have to be sent out, and Ding can't be caught.

"What's that expression on your face? Think I'm too capable?" Zhou Yanqing glanced up at her from the account book.

It takes two days to look at these account books, what else can you do?

When Zhou Yanqing swept over again, Qiao Mingjin opened his mouth, thought for a while, and then closed it again.

Is she too free?Just don't bother with these nosy things.

"Which one is the account book of Yayi Workshop?"

After hearing this, Zhou Yanqing took one out of the pile of account books on the table and handed it to her.

Qiao Mingjin took it and flipped it over.

Her workshop has been open for less than half a year, and the masters in the early stage are all in the groping stage, and it takes a long time for a large-scale root carving work to come out, but there are no more than [-] or [-] finished products.

So this account is easy to remember.It is also very clear when it is put into the warehouse, when it is sold, and how much the price is. It is very simple and clear.

Although this accounting method and writing method are not something she has learned.But because there are not many things, she only needs to look through them a little bit to understand.Then put the account book back.

"Are you fanning the wind, just go through it all over again?" Zhou Yanqing raised her head from the account book and glanced at her again.

"There's an abacus next to it."

"Need not."

Qiao Mingjin looked at Zhou Yanqing and looked at her again, and said with a smile: "I still can't trust you, Master Liu. You are the big shopkeeper, and you can get as much as you say. I'll just sit and wait for the money, so why bother. For nothing I just need to take back the wages of me and the masters, and go to the street to prepare some New Year’s goods to send them home for the New Year.”

Zhou Yanqing really thought she didn't care.Just trust him.After hearing these words, there was a slight smile on his face, and he looked in a good mood.

In fact, these root carvings are all sold in round numbers, there is no amount of money or cents, and there is no income or sales, and the quantity is not large, so let's do a silent calculation.The total sum, interest and bonus can be calculated, so why use an abacus?

When she is a certified public accountant?

Because both of them are busy with their own affairs.Qiao Mingjin came out within half a stick of incense time after going in.

Holding nearly 2000 taels of banknotes in my hand, I felt refreshed.Today, I was able to make a good purchase.

After calling Yunjin, the two of them left the shop together.

As the end of the year approaches, the streets are full of people.There is no difference between gathering and dispersing in the past.Looking at it at a glance, every street and road is full of people, every street is a prosperous street and every shop is a prosperous shop.

Even the smithy, which is usually sparsely populated, is full of people coming and going.

Qiao Mingjin asked Yunjin to find He Shiwan'er and the others, and she started to stroll around by herself.

The first is the Yaoji grocery store.

Before he reached Yaoji's shop, he heard noises from a distance, and when he looked up, he saw people coming and going from Yaoji's grocery store, and Yao Ping was greeting customers at the door with a smile on his face.

"Ah, sister Qiao, are you here to prepare new year's goods too? Come in, come in."

Yao Ping looked around and listened to all directions, and saw Qiao Mingjin rushing forward to pull her into the shop.

"Did you not go to the village?"

"No. These days, near the end of the year, people from all villages, no matter how big or small, come to the city to buy new year's goods. In the twelfth lunar month, my brother and I don't go to the village anymore. Besides, the goods in the shop sell out quickly. I have to stock up every day, sometimes two or three times a day, and my father in the store can't take care of it alone."

Yao Ping said while leading Qiao Mingjin into the store.

Qiao Mingjin nodded.As he walked in, he looked around.

This was her first visit to Yaoji grocery store.The facade is not big, but everything is complete when you look at it.

And because of the shelves that Qiao Mingjin drew for them, there are many things in the store, but they are clearly divided into different categories, and there is no clutter in the slightest.The shelves are also labeled with red paper so that customers can find them better.

Qiao Mingjin also took a special look at the place where the hangers and sleeves were placed.

Seeing her gaze, Yao Ping hurriedly said with a smile: "Although these two things can be made simply by looking at them, they are sold very quickly because they are not expensive. I have replenished the goods twice this morning. There are not many people here who have found wood or bought fabrics to do this. The sales are very good."

While talking, he led her into the store, because there was no tea in the store, so he had to accompany her to visit the store and explain to her.

Father Yao and Yao Ping's two elder brothers naturally saw her since she saw her in the store, and came up to meet her.

Several people treated Qiao Mingjin very warmly, which made Qiao Mingjin very heartwarming.

She looked around in the store and chatted with them a few more times, seeing that they were busy answering customers' inquiries, preparing goods, and packing them for customers from time to time.Qiao Mingjin didn't bother, and said goodbye to Yao Ping after a few words.

When she came out and was about to visit the cloth shop, she heard someone calling her.

"elder sister!"

Very familiar.Qiao Mingjin looked back, and sure enough, she saw Mingheng rushing towards her through the crowd.

Qiao Mingjin greeted her with a smile.

"sister!"

"Hey. Why did you come to the street? You don't need to study today?"

Qiao Mingjin looked at this younger brother whom he hadn't seen for more than a month, and wanted to touch his head, only to realize that the boy had jumped up to her shoulder at some point, so he had to pat him on the shoulder twice instead.

"No more. Liu Yuanwai asked my brother and I to go home for the New Year tomorrow. Classes will not start until the [-]th of the first month of the new year. Today, my brother and I want to buy something on the street and go home early tomorrow morning."

After Ming Heng finished speaking, Qiao Mingjin also saw Ming Jue holding Wan'er and pushing the crowd towards him, Yun Jin holding Yun Luan and He Shi followed behind.

Before Ming Jue could speak, Wan'er yelled, "Mother, mother, I was the one who saw uncle and uncle first!"

"Well, it seems that our Wan'er is the best."

Ming Jin nodded to Ming Jue, then leaned down and patted her daughter's head to show encouragement, the little thing got a few compliments, and immediately grinned, with a smug expression on her face.

"Are you going on vacation tomorrow?" Qiao Mingjin looked at Mingjue and said.

"Well. Originally, I wanted to buy some things today and return early tomorrow morning. Since I saw my sister, let's go back together in a while."

"Alright."

So the group walked together.

It's Chinese New Year, no matter adults or children, new clothes, new socks and new shoes must be made.

So the group went to the fabric shop first.

Picked a few bolts of fine cotton cloth, and picked a few bolts of silk cloth to make inner clothes and shoe uppers.They also chose silk fabrics for Grandmother Lan, Father Qiao, Mother Qiao, and Yun's grandparents, so that they could make New Year's clothes for them.He also chose a suit for the Yun family's two uncles and aunts.

Yun Jin declined for a while, but did not persuade her, so she let her go.

Asking the shopkeeper to deliver the goods to Yaoji, the few of them went shopping again.

I bought food at the grain store, I bought snacks, candied fruit and roasted seeds and nuts at the dim sum store, I bought sugar, oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar at the grocery store, I bought some gold and silver jewelry for the elders at the jewelry store, and I went to the stationery store to buy red paper for writing couplets...

They went shopping for a few streets, bought some trinkets for Wan'er and Yunluan, bought a few flowers for Ming Qi, and went to an embroidery shop to buy about twenty purses for Chinese New Year's red envelopes.

I also bought a few jars of wine at the wine shop, and bought some dried seafood at the dry goods store.Finally, I went to Jishang to buy meat and vegetables...

Finally, the group picked another clean restaurant for lunch...

After eating, we went shopping again.After buying all the things, I was ready to go home.First went to Yao Ji to pick up the things, and the chariot and horse shop picked up the chariot and horse. Because there were too many things to buy, they hired a car now to send Ming Heng and Ming Jue to the Green Willow Villa to pick up their luggage.

Just as he was about to leave the city, he saw Zhou Yanqing's boy from a distance pulling a cart of New Year's goods, saying that Zhou Yanqing had asked him to deliver them.

Qiao Mingjin declined for a while, but she didn't, so she had no choice but to accept it.

Moved the things to Qiao's carriage, and it was packed to the brim.Apart from being able to squeeze Yunluan and Wan'er, there is absolutely no place for adults to sit.

I had no choice but to walk all the way to the Green Willow Villa and wait for the Mingjue brothers. Fortunately, there was a hired car there.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Wai sent half a carload of things, cloth rulers, dry food and tea, etc., plus the burden of the two brothers.In the end, only Ming Qi and Ming Heng could barely fit in the car, and everyone else sat on the shaft...
