The autumn breeze brings away the last trace of summer heat. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoAs a few autumn rains have fallen, a chill has slowly seeped into the air, reminding people to change into thicker autumn shirts.

And this season means a bumper harvest for the people of Qingshui Village and food and clothing for the coming year.

"Mother, I went to the tenant field just now to see, this year's harvest is good, I guess it will be harvested in the next few days. Let's keep some for ourselves to eat as in previous years, and sell the rest. Wang Jin and Chen sat in the courtyard to discuss the autumn harvest.

"I'll go to Fengji Grain Store tomorrow to ask and set the date for harvesting grain."

"Hey, you just have to make up your mind!" Chen was dismantling one of Wang Tang's old winter coats, the needlework in his hands did not stop, he leaned over and looked at Wang Hibiscus writing and drawing, and said curiously, "By the way, didn't you say that the cotton has been harvested several times, where is it piled up?" I don't know how the harvest is? ”

"Haven't you picked it all yet? When the time comes, my mother will know! Wang Jin grinned and sold Guanzi.

Chen glanced at her, and really left it alone. She had also been to the cotton field a few times before, and she could see that it was growing vigorously, and those long-term workers had expanded the previous warehouse a lot in order to pile cotton, and recently they were even more jubilant every day, so she was relieved and let Wang Jin toss it. Thinking that Wang Jin was so capable, Chen was both relieved and sad, and looking at his daughter's plain dress, he made up his mind to add some things to her makeup after selling food.

Wang Jin naturally didn't know anything about Chen's thoughts, and she was now busy sorting out the "goods" that she would hand over to Li Mingqian tomorrow.

She has been competing with the cotton in the field for half a month, and it was not until the past two days that she found time to sort out the modern double-entry bookkeeping methods and forms.

In the past, when her father ran a tea shop, she also thought about taking out this method, but she was too young at the time, and if she said it, she might be regarded as a monster, so she had to give up. Now the time is right, but my father is gone.

Her expression was slightly dazed, and she regained her clarity.

Tsai carefully wrote down the key points such as the bookkeeping rules, the loan accounts, and the method of trial balance, and Wang Jian did not rest until late at night.

The next day, she still entered the city in an ox cart early, and then went straight to the Feng Kee Grain Store.

“… But in previous years, the rice was harvested according to a catty of five wen, why is there only four wen this year? Wang Jin was surprised.

"This year's grain harvest has lowered the price of grain, and the price of this purchase has naturally also dropped. Siwen is already good, the little brother doesn't believe it, you can go to other houses and ask, it's all at this price. The shopkeeper fiddled with the abacus and did not raise his head.

"I see. Thank you, shopkeeper. Wang Jin was slightly disappointed, and suddenly became nervous, and immediately went to several nearby cloth farms after leaving the grain store.

After inquiring about the price of cotton, Wang Jin breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, the price of cotton did not drop, otherwise she would have lost a lot.

Lunch was settled at a wonton stand, and seeing that the hour was almost up, Wang Jin rushed to Tingfeng Tower.

******************************

"The king... Childe, "Suixing has been waiting at the door for a long time, and when he saw Wang Jin, he immediately greeted him. She is dressed in men's clothes today, and Suixing has also changed her name from good as Liu. "Childe is already waiting in the courtyard, please come with me."

Wang Jin nodded, and followed Suixing to the bamboo forest building last time.

"Come in." Before the hand that followed the star knocked on the door fell, a man's magnetic and gentle voice came from inside the room.

"His voice is too deceptive!" Wang Jin felt a scorn in his heart, and secretly reminded himself that he must be careful of this person later.

In the room, behind the bookcase.

A handsome young man in a blue brocade robe was holding a scroll in his hand, looking at it leisurely. Hearing the sound of the two entering the room, he closed the book, stood up, smiled at Wang Jin very politely, and then glanced at Suixing.

"Wait a minute!" Wang Jin hurriedly stopped Sui Xing, who was about to exit the house, and smiled at Li Mingqian, "Just let him stay, maybe I'll need him to help later." ”

Li Mingqian glanced at her deeply, seemed to smile, and nodded slightly towards Suixing.

Seeing that Suixing really stayed in the house, Wang Jin breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"Miss Wang, let's talk about it here." Li Mingqian pointed to the tea couch by the window and said with a smile.

Wang Jin nodded and sat down on the couch with him.

She first took out a piece of black jade from her body, put it in front of Li Mingqian, and said, "This is your jade pendant, since we have another deal now, there is no need to put it here with me." Let's return it to its rightful owner! ”

Li Mingqian raised his eyebrows slightly, but did not refuse, and took Moyu back into his arms.

She took out an envelope from her arms, handed it to Li Mingqian, and said, "This is the goods you want." Let's open the test. ”

Li Mingqian took the envelope, took out a wad of paper from it, and spread it out to look at it carefully.

As the letter paper flipped over, the shallow smile that had always hung on the corner of his mouth was gone, replaced by solemnity and seriousness.

Wang Jian had expected him to react like this, but he couldn't help but feel a little proud. I secretly thought that I had been low-key for so many years, and I could finally raise my eyebrows and open a golden finger!

"The girl is honest and did not deceive me, if this law is implemented, the accounts can indeed be clear and well-founded, and the verification is accurate and convenient." Li Mingqian closed the letter and looked at Wang Jin, with a slight sigh in his tone.

"I wonder where the girl learned this?" He was really a little curious, could it be that the old man who sold vegetables was actually a master of the world?

"My dad taught me." Wang replied crisply.

"I see." Li Mingqian said suddenly, "It's really admirable that my father can come up with this method." ”

"Are you satisfied?" Wang Jin wanted to solve the problem quickly.

"Hmm... Naturally, it is satisfied. However, Li is stupid, and there are still some things that he has not understood, so I am afraid that he will have to bother the girl to explain. Li Mingqian smiled calmly.

This is normal, if he understands it once, it will be too shocking. Wang Jian nodded: "No problem." That one... First of all, tell me how so many shops in your family do accounts and check accounts? ”

"On weekdays, the turnover of each shop is recorded in the ledger by the shopkeeper, and this is settled once a month. There are also more than a dozen big shopkeepers, who are responsible for checking and summarizing the accounts in their respective jurisdictions, and then report to the chief shopkeeper every quarter. That's me. Check again. Li Mingqian said slowly.

"That's pretty much what I thought. You take out the last few forms. Wang Jin said.

Li Mingqian pulled out the last few pages as he said.

"You see, the small table drawn on this page is a voucher for recording the running water, that is, for the shopkeeper of each of your shops." Wang Jin pointed to one of the pieces of paper and said, "According to the nature of the project, it is divided into two types of loans, and then it is summarized and recorded on the following table every month." In this way, the big manager can check the summarized data according to the flow voucher, and because the project is detailed and clear, if there is a problem with the summarized data, it is easy to find out the source of the problem. ”

The form used for demonstration was written with the date, project name, amount, debit/credit account, and person's name, etc., Li Mingqian thought for a moment and bowed slightly.

"The following two tables are to be filled in by the big shopkeeper, and they are also sorted out according to the data that has been summarized before. In this process, if the data summarized earlier is incorrect, there will be problems in filling in, so it is also a process of re-checking. And you, the chief shopkeeper," Wang Jian curled the corners of his mouth, "just look at whether the data on these forms sent by the big shopkeepers is reasonable, and you will know if there is a problem." Because any modification in this accounting method will affect the whole body, it is really difficult to fake. ”

This time, Li Mingqian was silent for a longer time before raising his head and saying to Wang Jin: "This method is indeed as the girl said, it is extremely difficult to fake and easier to check. However, it seems that the bookkeeping and aggregation are more cumbersome, and some of the names of these accounts listed by the girl are indeed difficult to understand. He couldn't help but shake his head and sighed, "I don't know if those shopkeepers of our Li family might learn this method?" ”

"Wouldn't it be nice if you learned? When the time comes, give them training and training, and the shopkeepers hired by your Li family should have some skills if they want to come, but they can't learn this, so it's better to go home and farm! Wang was unimpressed by his concerns.

"Hehe, what the girl said is very true." Li Mingqian looked at Wang Jin, a smile flashed in his eyes, "Then Li still has some questions, so I will ask the girl to give me advice!" ”

"Well said!" His modest and even somewhat humble attitude greatly satisfied the little vanity of Wang Jin, who had always been a good teacher, and he agreed very simply.

Li Mingqian has taken over the family's business for more than two years. He was a learned man, known as a stranger, and soon became familiar with the family's large and small industries. Originally, the Li family only planned to sharpen his temperament to let him get in touch with these business matters, and let him take charge of several cloth shops that were not well run and barely maintained. Who knows, in just a few months, he actually doubled his book profit and opened several branches in the space of a year. Under the crooked beating, Li Mingqian is now in charge of most of the family's industries. You must know that the Li family can become one of the few richest people in Yangzhou and even the whole country, not only by relying on the business of Tongli Qianzhuang, but also involving all walks of life, and the industry is huge.

Li Mingqian, who has spent two years in the ledger pile, naturally has more thorough ideas and sharper vision than ordinary people. It is to be able to see the benefits and difficulties of Wang Jin's method at a glance. His questions are all seemingly trivial, but in fact extremely important points to pay attention to, and occasionally ask a rhetorical question, Wang Jian has to be stunned for a while before he can come up with an answer. The two seem to be learning and teaching, but it is more like a debate. As the problem deepened, the two turned from teaching to discussion, and the sparks of ideas continued to collide, and they actually felt a sense of sympathy for each other.

This person has a strong comprehension, a very broad vision, and extraordinary insight. If you don't have that fetish, it's really attractive! Wang Jian thought secretly, alas, what a pity.

"Why is the girl looking at me like that?" Li Mingqian smiled playfully.

Only then did Wang Jian realize that he had expressed what he was thinking, not only did he look at Li Mingqian with a very regretful expression, but he also shook his head!

She was a little embarrassed, but she was still thick-skinned enough, and she quickly recovered, shook her head and sighed: "I think it's a pity, it's a pity!" ”

"What a pity?" Li Mingqian looked at the little girl opposite who was obviously slightly red, but pretended to be calm, and felt that there seemed to be a feather in her heart, itchy and numb.

"Li Gongzi is obviously full of wealth and intelligence, and he doesn't go to the field to gain fame, but he wants to be a businessman who is most despised by literati. Isn't it a pity? Wang Jin tilted his head and sighed in a quiet tone.

"I think that most of the so-called scholars in the world are people who seek fame and reputation. I make money in business, enjoy it, don't steal, don't rob, don't cheat, don't cheat, don't need others to look at it. Li Mingqian's tone was light, but there was a strong confidence in his always gentle smile.

It's really... It's handsome! A little star burst out of Wang Jin's eyes, and he praised: "Childe is so courageous!" ”

Li Mingqian looked at her, the corners of his mouth were slightly curved, he suddenly lowered his head and approached her face, and said with a low smile: "The girl is like this... Intrigued? ”

… Whatever you said before, you must be careful to guard against this person. Look, I didn't praise it, but the old mistake was made again.

Wang Jin was annoyed and embarrassed, and a little helpless.

"Li Gongzi, you really don't praise it, this is completely revealed." Wang Jin's eyes narrowed, revealing a sense of warning.

Li Mingqian smiled slightly, and apologized very earnestly: "What the girl said is that I just got carried away and was rude. He looked out the window and said, "Why don't I invite the girl to dinner as an atonement?" ”

"No need, I still have something to do, so I'll leave." Wang Jin thought to herself, I don't dare to eat your food!

"The girl is afraid of me?" Li Mingqian raised his eyebrows at Wang Jian and smiled.

All of this has been discovered?! Although Wang Jin lamented in his heart, his tone was still calm: "Gongzi said that he laughed, why should I be afraid of you." It's just that I heard that the price of food has fallen this morning, so I have to go home early and explain the matter to my elders. ”

"Because of the two consecutive years of bumper grain harvests, the purchase price of grain banks this year has indeed decreased." Li Mingqian seemed very interested and said, "The girl's family wants to sell grain?" ”

Wang Jian nodded: "There are some to sell, so I am in a hurry to go back and explain the situation to my family." ”

"Girl, you might as well sell it to me, the price... Or how about the same as before? Li Mingqian said with his usual gentle smile.

"Sold to you?" Wang Jin was a little surprised, and then shook his head and said: "My family's grain is not ten catties and hundreds of catties, and I appreciate Li Gongzi's kindness." ”

"Hehe, the girl doesn't know, I have a few wineries under my name, and I just need to collect some grain to make wine recently." Li Mingqian explained with a smile, "In the past, it was also purchased from the grain store, and if you buy the girl's house directly, you can also save the intermediate costs, and you and I can benefit." I wonder what the girl thinks? ”

"That's right—" Wang hesitated. The 100 acres of fertile land at home, after deducting the tenants and taxes, can be sold for at least 20,000 catties this year. The difference in the price of one pound and one penny is twenty taels of silver. With the current situation of her family, there is really no way not to care.

She struggled in her heart, and decided to bend her waist for 20,000 catties of rice: "Okay, I'll sell it to you." But my family can probably have 20,000 catties of rice this year, how much does Childe's winery need? ”

"Girl, don't worry, the more the merrier." Li Mingqian still smiled gently, but the corners of his eyes twitched almost invisibly.

"Since this is the case, then please ask the son to bring someone to Qingshui Village outside the city to collect grain and inspect and pay for the goods in ten days." Seeing him so simply, Wang Jian also saved trouble, afraid that he would say something to celebrate with a meal or something, so he hurriedly said: "I'll go home and make arrangements, Gongzi Li, say goodbye!" Without waiting for him to speak, he slipped out of the bed and ran away.

Looking at her escape in the same way as last time, Li Mingqian chuckled, his eyes became brighter and brighter, as if some kind of emotion was brewing and was about to break out of the ground.
