Chapter XXV

Du Yan was very happy, the laughter like silver bells sprinkled in every corner of the inner courtyard, since the day she met her, she has always been a lively and cheerful girl, always full of vitality, always hearty and optimistic, happy and flying youth, no regrets.

Qin Kan stood quietly outside the arch, a smile on the corner of his mouth that even he hadn't noticed.

Is it envy?

Thinking about the youth of his previous life, it will pass in a moment, leaving only a vague mind, a few sighs of "scholars are old, opportunities are coming", and there are three or two regrets that still feel stinging when I think about it, this is the youth of my previous life.

stared blankly at Du Yan's happy smile, I couldn't tell whether it was jealousy or nostalgia, I lived two lives, although my biological age was only nineteen years old, but psychologically I was already a strange uncle in my thirties and forties.

Qin Kan's eyes stared directly at Du Yan on the swing in a daze, he was caught in the past, he didn't realize that Du Yan's swinging speed slowed down, and gradually stopped, the strange gaze of the strange uncle made Du Yan's pretty face hot, and his gestures were very uncomfortable, and in silence, a blood-like red tide quickly spread from his white neck to the root of his ears.

Qin Kan didn't know how unruly it was for a young man to stand outside the arch of someone else's inner courtyard and look at the female relatives in the inner courtyard of other people's houses in a demented manner, even though he was the creditor of this female family......

When he woke up from the memories of his previous life, he was stunned to find Du Yan standing in front of him with his hands on his hips, staring at him viciously, and his cheeks bulging high.

"Hey, what is your intention when you stand at the door of my inner courtyard and snoop on the thief's brain?" Du Yan tried hard to make her aura look domineering.

Qin Kan had no choice but to explain: "Seeing that you are smiling so happily, I can't help but look at ...... more"

"What does it matter to you if I'm laughing so badly?"

Qin Kan sighed: "A person who owes a huge amount of two hundred taels of silver and has not repaid it really shouldn't laugh so happily......"

Du Yan snorted: "Why don't you ask my father to go?" ”

"I'm afraid your father will beat me on the board......"

"Aren't you afraid I'll beat you?"

"Of course I'm afraid, so I've always been gentle in my way of collecting debts, and I didn't dare to splash red paint on your door."

Du Yan's eyes dodged, and she changed the topic in time: "Hey, the monkey was pressed by the Buddha at the foot of the Five Fingers Mountain, what happened later?" Is he dead? ”

Qin Kan lamented, looking at Miss Du's attitude of changing the topic, he understood that in the coming years, the process of debt collection will be full of hardships and pain, and perhaps accompanied by blood and bones......

Du Zhixian summoned Qin Kan alone because there was a very secret and important matter.

"Qin Kan, can this official trust you?" Du Hong's eyes were deep and sharp, as if he wanted to see through the young man in front of him at a glance.

Du Hong's question made Qin Kan embarrassed.

To be honest, he himself didn't believe in himself, and just now he secretly swore because of Du Yan's cheeky behavior, saying that he would be greedy for the official treasury of Shanyin County, can such a person believe it?

Qin Kan wanted to persuade Du Zhixian not to take such a risk......

But he still answered honestly: "Lord County, I read the book of sages in my later life, the gentleman is still filial, Shangren, Shangde, Shangyi, and Shangxin." ”

Qin Kan's answer made Du Hong very satisfied, the word "Sage Book" is like a pass token, and anyone holding it high can go all the way unimpeded, so the literati of this era behave like madmen, just like the red generals in the Cultural/Revolutionary period, as long as there are quotations in hand, smashing and robbing are reasonable and legal.

Du Hong stared at it for a long time, and said slowly: "Why did the official of Zhilu Dao promise Yan'er to hire you into the county government as a master?" ”

Because you owe me a big favor, if I didn't help you trick people, you would have rolled up and gone back to your hometown early......

I only dare to say this in my heart, and I have to be very respectful on the surface. …,

"Late born dull, please teach the county lord."

"Shi Lu's matter is only one of the reasons, and there is another reason......" Du Hong stared at him and said slowly: "Because you are alone, with a clean background, and no hometown party friends, so this official can use you with confidence, why does the official explain to you the first thing is to clean up the account books?" ”

Qin Kan's heart tightened, if he couldn't hear the meaning of these words, he would be a fool, and there was a cat in the account book!

What people! It's so unbelievable! I haven't done it yet, but someone else has taken the lead! This man should have dragged him out of the gang and cut it off.

Sure enough, Du Hong said slowly: "In the money and grain accounts, some places are quite fancy, and the income and expenditure seem to be stable, but the old man always feels that there is a problem in it, and he can't say where the problem is, and in the absence of evidence, the old man is inconvenient to make a noise, and he can't check it in a big way, so as not to chill the hearts of his colleagues, and let the supervising imperial historians hear the rumors and catch the handle of the old man, Qin Kan, do you understand what the old man means?" ”

Qin Kan looked at Du Hong with some puzzlement.

What does it mean that the accounts do not see the problem? As long as you draw a loan table to summarize and sort out the flow of accounts, and then compare the income and expenditure accounts of the official treasury, whether there are any problems at a glance, why can't you see it?

Immediately, Qin Kan suddenly woke up, now it is the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty that is five hundred years behind the previous life, the thinking of the ancient people is restricted, and there is a little fame in the running account, which ordinary people really can't detect.

It's a pity that Qin Kan is a traverser.

The names in those running accounts seemed to him to be a joke.

In his previous life, in order to reimburse a few more expired tickets, he studied hard in the accounting book, specializing in reasonable and legal stitches, and by mistake he actually helped the old accountant find out a deputy manager who embezzled public funds, and the old accountant in charge of the company's accounts had to pay out of his own pocket to invite him to drink, and asked him very sincerely, and asked him not to hesitate to give advice if he did not understand the accounts in the future, and also, don't look too ugly when reimbursing the tickets......

When he came to the Ming Dynasty, could a small running account stump him?

"The meaning of the county lord, I understand it later." Qin Kan bowed and saluted.

"Give you a month to check the accounts, is it enough?" Du Hong stared at him solemnly.

"Don't insult my IQ...... Ahem, Lord County, you can find out within three days of being born late. ”

"Three days?" Du Hong was taken aback, twisted his eyebrows and said: "The stakes are very high, don't play with children!" ”

"If you can't find out in three days, you don't want to pay back the two hundred taels you owe me!" Qin Kan swore with the most important thing in his life.

"What?" Du Hong's eyes widened angrily.

"Ah...... Late birth, late birth gaffe, loss of words, in short, late birth guarantees to check the accounts within three days. ”

Staring at Qin Kan's slightly embarrassed back, Du Hong stroked his green beard and muttered dissatisfiedly: "The old man has forgotten about the two hundred taels of silver, but he remembers clearly, this son is definitely not a person who is indifferent to fame and fortune......"
