Chapter 596: Questioning
I won't say where the three hundred taels went, but as long as it happened to Wei Ming, then he had to pay for it.
Three hundred taels is not much, but Xia Kun, as a businessman, is the most taboo for this kind of self-enriching behavior.
After all, if everyone who has access to the account book were to settle accounts like this, I am afraid that the Xia family would have been poor and empty.
"Hehe, I can't think of it, I can't think of it, I really asked me to wait for the blind cat to meet a dead mouse, this time I see that Wei Ming has to shed his skin if he doesn't die." Xia Fangyuan clutched the ledger tightly and smiled smugly.
On the other side, as soon as Chang Wu followed Wei Ming back to the Xia Mansion, he heard the rumors that Xia Fangfu and Xia Fangyuan had secretly returned to the mansion and had not come out until now.
Thinking that the two of them seemed to have really taken something from the rice shop, I couldn't help but worry.
"Little brat, did they really get the ledger?"
Isn't the account book of the rice shop in Wei Ming's hands? Some of the accounts in the treasury are old accounts, where did they find them?
Wei Ming showed a light smile with the appearance of a little adult, "That's a fake account book, there is a loophole of three hundred taels of silver on it, I deliberately left it to them, they will definitely use it to frame me, and then we only need to take out the real account book to fight back, and let them suffer a big loss." ”
Chang Wu's eyes widened again, this ...... This...... What else can she say besides being excellent.
"Okay, it's you!" Chang Wu smiled and patted Wei Ming's shoulder, how could she feel that she had become stupid after following Wei Ming for a long time.
Following.
The sky has just turned white, Xia Fangyuan and Xia Fangfu have been guarding in front of Xia Kun's door with a black circle under their eyes, since the loophole in the account book was found last night, the two of them were so happy that they couldn't sleep anymore, if it wasn't for the late sky yesterday, Xia Kun had already rested, they couldn't wait to immediately paste the account book on Xia Kun's face to let him see.
In the middle of the night, the door creaked open, and Xia Kun appeared in the lobby after washing up.
Xia Fangfu and Xia Fangyuan were overjoyed, the two glanced at each other, and stepped forward with the account book.
"Father, son has something important to do." Xia Fangyuan immediately presented the account book in his hand, looking serious, as if it was really a big deal.
Xia Kun raised his eyebrows and took the account book, but it was very inexplicable, "I have to wait here early in the morning for something." ”
"Father, please see, what you have in your hand is the account book of the rice shop recently, and the son has checked it carefully and found that there are three hundred taels of silver missing from it."
As soon as Xia Fangyuan's words fell, Xia Kun's face changed abruptly, and then he looked through the account books, he had been doing business for half his life, and he had already known the account books well.
He could find any loophole in the ledger, so he naturally saw the loophole in the ledger, and his expression suddenly sank.
Xia Fangyuan observed Xia Kun's face, and was overjoyed in his heart, yes, that's it, the more angry the better.
"Father, you have always praised the third brother for his strength, but you are looking at the date of this account book, it is the day when the third brother manages it." Xia Fangyuan said bitterly, "The rice shop is a pillar of my Xia Mansion, and every income should belong to the Xia Mansion, what is the result?" Three
The younger brother has just taken over and has just started to deceive and conceal the behavior of filling his own pockets, three hundred taels is not much, but this person is the third brother! If I hadn't returned to the rice shop to find old things this time, I am afraid that everyone would have been kept in the dark by the third brother for the rest of their lives. ”
Xia Kun frowned tightly when he heard this, and he couldn't believe that Wei Ming would make fake accounts and steal his own money, but the account book was ironclad evidence, and he couldn't believe it.
"Father, according to my son, the third brother is the kind of person who can only do some superficial work, pretending to behave properly in front of you, and being selfish behind your back." Xia Fangyuan looked at Xia Kun and continued to add oil and vinegar.
"Yes, father, you must be fair, you can't go unpunished just because you are the third brother."
Filling up private pockets is a big mistake in the calculation of the Xia family, after all, there are many industries in Xia Mansion, but every case is a big loss.
Xia Fangfu and Xia Fangyuan's tacit understanding of singing double reeds made Xia Kun no longer doubt that although Wei Ming was his valued son, as long as he did something wrong, he could not be tolerated, and he should be punished.
"Go and call the third young master."
Xia Kun ordered the housekeeper with a cold face.
The next moment, as soon as his words fell, a familiar laugh came from outside the door.
"Father, the early morning movement is not conducive to your recovery."
Wei Ming is like a ball of cold black jade, and his leisurely and cold appearance seems to be coming to see the scene.
When Xia Kun saw Wei Ming, he was even more angry in his heart, and smashed the account book in his hand at Wei Ming's feet, and said angrily: "This is the good thing you did? ”
Wei Ming smiled slightly, and looked directly at Xia Fangyuan and Xia Fangfu on the side, without looking at the account book at all.
"Did my father find a loophole in this ledger?"
Wei Ming's neat appearance made Xia Fangyuan a little confused, how did she know that the account book was loophole? If there is a loophole, will she continue to write it down?
No, since she knows why she still shows such a natural demeanor, shouldn't she kneel on the ground and beg for mercy and take the initiative to give up the rice shop?
Xia Fangyuan was drumming in his heart, thinking of what he said when he and Xia Fangfu stole the account book before, his heart was a little empty.
"Third brother, shouldn't you explain what this loophole is about? That's a full lack of three hundred taels of silver? Xia Fangfu didn't have Xia Fangyuan's considerations, and when he saw Wei Minglai, he wanted to strike first.
Since Xia Fangyuan's question happened to be Xia Kun's question, he didn't open his mouth but squinted and waited for Wei Ming's explanation.
However, Wei Ming just picked up the account book on the ground and sat aside casually to look through it, with an attitude as if he was not the one who was being asked for trouble.
This fake account book was made by him, and he also made several places of fraud particularly obvious, and he also had good intentions, for fear that Xia Fangfu and Xia Fangyuan would not find it.
At the same time, it is also proving to Xia Kun that people who really want to make fake accounts and enrich their pockets will never do this, but whenever a smart person comes forward, I am afraid that he will suspect the reason for this, and then think about it carefully, only Xia Fangfu and Xia Fangyuan, two stupid and eager to harm people, will fall for the scheme.
Looking at the ledger is marked in red, is this the wrong place that Xia Fangyuan estimated to be marked?
Why are you still worried that Xia Kun can't see it?
Thinking of this, Wei Ming felt a little funny.
Everyone else has serious expressions now, and he is the only one laughing, is this a demon? What's so funny about this ledger?
"What are you laughing at?" Xia Kun accentuated his voice, he was still waiting for his explanation, but he looked at the ledger and smiled?
"Ahem." Wei Ming reacted and coughed lowly, and then he restrained his smile and said, "Father, my son has been wronged." ”
"The evidence is conclusive, this ledger is what you did, what are you wronged!" Before Xia Kun could speak, Xia Fangfu jumped out first, this was his best chance to suppress Wei Ming!
