Divine Doctor Poison Concubine: Miss Waste

Chapter 529 The Mysterious Woman (1)
Seeing the guilty conscience on the faces of the second and third wives, Xia Qingge looked down at Xia Ziqing who was quietly sitting aside, "What does father mean to the property that the two aunts want today?"

Xia Ziqing raised his head and looked at her quietly, with a soft smile in his eyes, "I'm not at home all year round, and I seldom pay attention to the business at home. You have been running the family business with your own hands for more than half a year. Now it's up to you." Talking is the most fair thing, if you have anything to say, just say it, everything is up to you.”

With Xia Ziqing's support, Xia Qingge felt warm in his heart, nodded slightly, and glanced towards the door, at this time Qiaolan who had quietly left was leading Manager Pang and accountant Mr. Li to this side .

"The villain has seen the uncle, the second master, the second wife, the third wife, and all the ladies." Director Pang and Mr. Li immediately greeted the hall after entering the hall.

Everyone cast their eyes on Xia Qingge in puzzlement, and the latter raised his footsteps and walked over, standing in the middle and scanning everyone's faces, "Since everyone wants to separate today, it is natural to talk about it, Qing Ge also said just now that I have a little understanding of the business outside the residence for more than half a year, and I found some loopholes in the accounts when I went to the western suburbs a while ago, and everyone who sits here must have heard of this matter." Xia Qingge paused, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and looked towards Xia Ziheng.

"Although what happened in the western suburbs can't represent everything, just in case similar things happen again, I have also checked the general ledger of our Duke's mansion for the past ten years, and listed an account based on it. Some people went to inspect the business points in the states and counties of Xiafu, and hand-copied a copy of the accounts of each place over the years and came back to check, hehe, guess what I found?"

She looked at the crowd with a smile, some of them were at a loss, some of them didn't understand what she was trying to say, but some of them must be very guilty at this moment.

"What did the eldest lady find out?" Although the third lady didn't understand what Xia Qingge wanted to say, she knew that there must be some reason during this period.

"I found that the entry, output, and total income of these accounts are all filled with water. That is to say, there is a huge difference between these accounts in our house and the total annual income." She raised her hand while talking, and Manager Pang immediately He took the account from Mr. Li and handed it to Xia Qingge respectfully.

After Xia Qingge took over the account, he opened it, glanced down, and continued: "The thousands of deniers of grain that are sent out every year by Zhuangzi in the western suburbs are equivalent to tens of thousands of taels of silver. , including the capital city, all the accounts have been tampered with by someone with a heart, and so calculated, within ten years, a total of 3807 million taels of silver in the Duke's Mansion has disappeared."

"What!" Xia Ziqing couldn't help being shocked when he heard this number.

"Who is responsible for the loss of such a large amount of silver?" The third lady also frowned, and she couldn't help but doubt some people in her heart.

"That's right, where did such a large amount of silver go?" Xia Qingge also asked himself, 3807 million taels of silver was considered an astronomical figure in ancient times. If an average family had 20 taels of silver, it would be enough for a large family to live comfortably. Worry about half a year, if these 20 taels of silver are placed in the countryside, it can fill the stomachs of a large family for a year or even two years.

In comparison, how many people can such a large number feed?
"Girl Qingge, your tone seems to be well-founded, but I don't know where you got the number from? Don't talk about the accounts of the past ten years, but within one year, including the accounts of the day's entry and exit. , current accounts, monthly accounts, and wages paid to workers. Moreover, if you want to do business safely in the local area, you must establish a good relationship with local officials and merchants. The expenses during this period are not a small amount, let alone our country. All the properties of the government government add up to hundreds of households. To put it bluntly, even if you invite ten accountants, it is not easy to calculate the accounts for a year, let alone What's more, what you calculated is ten years' worth of accounts." Xia Ziheng sneered a little.

Xia Qingge just kept smiling, and glanced at Mr. Li. The latter understood and opened another account in his hand, "This account was calculated by the young lady three months ago, and it is not as the second master said. Generally, ten gentlemen are invited, and all the numbers are calculated by the villain and another accountant in the account room. This is all the calculation process. If the second master doesn't believe it, the villain can explain it face to face. .”

He handed the account book in his hand to Xia Ziheng, who snorted coldly and stretched out his hand to take it. Xia Qingge carefully observed his movements, and carefully found that when he took the account book, a thin layer of sweat had already formed on the palm of his hand.

She hooked her lips into a smile, waiting to see his reaction later.

"What are these? What is multiplication and division? This account is obviously wrong. Since ancient times, the only calculation method is the method of integrating addition and subtraction. How can there be such a calculation method? It is ridiculous." He closed the account in his hand angrily and threw it to the Mr. accountant on the side.

Seeing that Xia Ziheng was angry, the latter was a little scared, but remembering Miss Qiaolan's exhortation just now, he summoned up the courage to explain: "This method of multiplying and dividing is only used by villains when they come in, but to be honest, this kind of calculation It seems that it is much easier than addition and subtraction. Moreover, the villain and the other accountant have done countless experiments. The results show that the numbers calculated by multiplication and division and the numbers obtained by addition and subtraction have no source at all. Therefore, the villain specially invited Mr. Zhu Jiu, who is well-known all over the world, to experiment for himself. The conclusion he drew was exactly the same as that of the villain. The method of adding, subtracting and superimposing saves dozens of times of time. Using this method to calculate the accounts of the Fuzhong for ten years, the villain and the other Mr. Xu only took more than a month to come to this conclusion. In the past two months, we have checked many times and found nothing."

Xia Ziheng's expression darkened for a moment, no one knew better than him whether the number was correct or not, and he secretly hated that Xia Qingge, a little girl, was really difficult to deal with, and now all the calculations were placed on him.

With a cold snort, Xia Ziheng turned to look at Xia Ziqing, "Don't you think that big brother doesn't make decisions in the mansion? Why did Qing Ge, a little girl, manage the business outside the mansion? She is good at learning the etiquette of a lady from all over the world, but she is keen on these stinky deals, who would dare to want her in the future."

Xia Ziqing's indifferent face finally changed after Xia Ziheng finished saying this. He looked at Xia Ziheng with cold eyes, and said coldly: "My daughter doesn't bother my second brother. Qing Ge is smart and helps me. I don't think it's a shame for a competent father to share his worries and work. If he really dares to look down on her family, just say a similar sentence in front of me, Xia Ziqing, and I will never let them go lightly. Xia Ziqing has nothing else , this rotten life is still there, if you are not afraid of death, feel free to criticize my daughter."
