"I'm tired of you coming to the door in person, but it's not Xu's."

The attitude of this shopkeeper Xu Fu Xu is humble and smooth, Xie Ning played a few words of Tai Chi with him, and then under Pei Xinghai's eyes, he got to the point, "Don't hide it from the shopkeeper Xu, I am in charge of family affairs recently, but I know very little about the operation of this store." I wonder if the shopkeeper can say a few words to me, and then bring me some of the account books of the past year, so that I can understand more. ”

"Don't hide it from the shopkeeper, I am in charge of the family affairs recently, but I know very little about the operation of this store. I wonder if the shopkeeper can say a few words to me, and then bring me some of the account books of the past year, so that I can understand more. ”

Xie Ning's words were not direct, just because she and this Xu Fu were meeting for the first time, and the other party was not a servant in her family after all, after thinking about it, she never said the idea of wanting to see the account.

With her temperament, it is rare to be able to say such euphemistic words, but she didn't expect that Xu Fu didn't give half of face, smiled and snorted, and revealed the matter, "Miss is young after all, and it is common sense not to know general affairs." Xu's side is not clear, a silk village can still be taken care of, if the lady has any questions, just ask Xu. But as long as Xu can solve it, he will definitely not refuse. ”

This speech seems to be similar, and it is quite a bit of a rush to the soup. Xie Ning was waiting to listen to what he said next, but he didn't want Xu Fu's words to stop, which made people cry and laugh.

It stands to reason that this silk village is the Xie family's industry, although it is handed over to this Xu Fu to operate, but it is also paid to him every year, the store deed is clearly written, Xie Ning and the two came with a sealed letter, and it is common sense to want to see the old account books of previous years, but who knows that this Xu Fu actually took Xie Ning's politeness as a temperless, and his words were beautiful, but he did not mention the account book.

Xie Ning is not a soft persimmon that can be manipulated by others, not to mention that in front of Xu Fu, she has nothing to worry about, she can say something, she doesn't have to worry about it, and wronged herself. The previous politeness was just a matter of habit. But since this Xu Fu dared to pretend to be confused in front of her, he didn't blame her for speaking mercilessly.

When Xu Fu's words landed, Xie Ning glanced at him with a smile, his gaze only stayed on him for a moment, and then his gaze turned to Pei Xinghai beside him, and he glanced almost imperceptibly.

The eyes of the two met for only a short time, and Pei Xinghai nodded knowingly, and left this matter to Xie Ning to deal with confidence.

At this time, there were no outsiders in the silk shop, there was silence in the store, and even the breathing sound of the three of them was very clear, but it was Xie Ning who deliberately wanted to hang the slippery shopkeeper Xu.

After a full quarter of an hour, Xie Ning chuckled, walked towards Xu Fu, stopped in front of him, and said in a light tone: "Then I will thank Shopkeeper Xu for his kindness." I have a puzzle, and I still hope that the shopkeeper Xu will answer. I heard that there are many people in the west of the city, why have I stayed here for so long, but I haven't even seen a single guest who comes to the door? Could it be that we are not good at management, so that the business is so bleak? ”

As soon as Xie Ningfu spoke, Xu Fu's expression did not change, and he still looked at the little girl in front of him with a smile on his face who looked not very old and had little experience, but when he heard her ensuing two questions, he couldn't help but change his eyes, restrained the false smile on his face and the contempt in his heart, and re-examined the young lady of the Xie family in Shu with his head up, woke up his spirit, and then cautiously replied:

"This is not due to mismanagement, but there are other reasons. Miss may not know, although our Xie Ji Silk Village is located in the west of the city in a prosperous place, even if people come and go even if the terrain is convenient, it is inevitable that there will be competition. There is a Sun Ji silk village on the opposite street, although the year name is not as long as our signboard, but it is also a time-honored brand that has been open for more than ten years, all kinds of cloth are complete, and the price is also low, which is indeed to attract many customers. At the same time, in the same place, we are not immune to its influence. ”

Although Xu Fu's words were humble, Xie Ning still saw a little strangeness in his eyes wandering back and forth, and he knew that he was such a slippery person, and he would not find his own reason when something happened. However, without evidence, based on speculation alone, she did not hold on to this, but continued along with his words: "That is the case, please also ask Shopkeeper Xu to find out the account books of the past years, and we may not know what clues we may be able to find out through this." ”

Xu Fu's eyes flashed, and the exit was still a prevarication, "Our Xie Ji is also a time-honored brand, and the account books of more than ten years are not too much, but there are a lot of words." It is really inconvenient to carry back and forth, and it is inevitable that Miss will be running around, so it is better for Xu to send the account book to the house another day, Miss, what do you think? ”

It's just a few account books, Shaining doesn't know what to do, even if the other party really does something, she may not be able to see it. What's more, her original intention of asking for the account books was not to check the accounts, but to better manage the family industry.

Is there anything wrong with the books of this silk village?

Xie Ning glanced at Xu Fu thoughtfully, and there was no emotion in his eyes, but he thought in his heart: her father is a rough man, and he is also confused about taking care of the industry, and because he is far away in Shu, for the industry in Beijing thousands of miles away, he simply delegates all the power to others to take care of it, or rent or hire, in short, it is a relaxed body, in addition to checking the dividends everywhere every year, there is nothing else to worry about, even the account books sent from thousands of miles, he is mostly roughly browsed, and does not look closely.

The sky is high and the earth is far away, no one is in charge, this Xu Fu is not a servant of their Xie family, as the days go by, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no other thoughts, and it is not known if he really has a private pocket.

"It's just a few account books, and they don't sink," Pei Xinghai said with a little disdain: "What's more, Miss Xie and I came by carriage, even if I took the account books, I couldn't walk a few steps." ”

I didn't expect this person to speak out coldly, which made Xu Fu, who was secretly looking at Xie Ning, startled, quickly retracted his gaze, and said, "This ...... Xu is also considering the two of them. ”

The corners of Xie Ning's mouth hooked, and he chuckled: "I know what Shopkeeper Xu means. But you are the only one in this silk workshop, if you go out to deliver the account books, who should take care of the store? ”

"Hehe," Xu Fu's eyes flashed weakly, and after laughing twice in agreement, he spoke up, "A few years have passed, and there are many obscurities in the account books, Xu is just worried, Miss, you don't know why, so you want to send it in person." If you really have any doubts, I can explain them to your face. ”
