95. Accounting and professional managers
When Jingwen asked Liu Qing if he really wanted to set up an accounting firm to help people settle accounts, Liu Qing replied in the affirmative. In fact, Jingwen could not judge the future of the development of this accounting profession in ancient times, because the commercial circulation in ancient times was not developed, and there were relatively few cases that required accounting. And in this case, can the accounting profession develop?
"As long as you have the owner, I believe it can develop. Owner, you are very knowledgeable, you shouldn't let me lose money as a partner, right? Even if I lose money, it's a big deal to let the owner raise me. Liu Qing suddenly said cutely.
Jingwen complained in his heart, this Liu Qing is too good at selling cuteness. Although her age is one year older than her current physical age, Jingwen can't compare with her ability to sell cuteness. Perhaps, this is a girl's special ability, and ordinary men can't do it! This Liu Qing seems to have relied on Jingwen, anyway, she is not afraid that she has no way out, so it is a big deal to be Jingwen's woman.
"Since you want to play this emerging industry, I can't help it." Jingwen said.
"What's the solution?" Liu Qing asked.
Jingwen thought for a while and said, "Actually, you can actually help others check the accounts!" You don't have to do the kind of business that helps small businesses settle accounts, in fact, you can also do the audit business of those big businesses, which is called auditing. For some reason, some large merchants do not trust their own accounts, or although they trust, they still need to be more insured, so they want to find someone to help them verify it. You should know that the higher the status, the more suspicious they are. Even the big ones are no exception, and they tend to be suspicious. ”
"Yes, some big businesses do often go to outside accounting offices to help them verify their accounts." Liu Qing replied in the affirmative.
"This kind of audit is called an audit, and you can do this business as well, and that's the most profitable aspect. And those big merchants are often willing to spend a certain price to let you help check the accounts, so that he can have a peace of mind. Moreover, there is also a situation that can be used to audit the accounts. Jingwen said.
"What's the situation?" Liu Qing asked.
Jingwen continued: "You should know that after many businessmen have successfully started their own businesses, their descendants are not very competitive, right? ”
"Yes! Many unsuccessful descendants will ruin the family business of their ancestors and become destitute from then on. Only a small number of people can be rich and prosperous, and this is because their family's inheritance quality is relatively good. It is difficult for ordinary merchant families to have the inheritance quality of the century-old family, so it will inevitably cause future generations to corrupt the family business. Liu Qing said.
Liu Qing obviously understands a lot, and many of them say that in ancient times, they were rich for no more than three generations, and this statement was also very marketable in later generations.
"So what if you are worried that your descendants will ruin your family's business?" Jingwen asked again.
Liu Qing said: "Generally speaking, when the ancestors pass away, the descendants are young or unsuccessful, and TOEFL has a trusted shopkeeper to help manage it." If your offspring grows up, or if you have lost your way, you will return it to the owner of that estate. This is the same as the minister of Tuogu in the court. ”
But how can you guarantee the loyalty of the shopkeepers? You should know that if you control all the power of an industry, it is very easy to hollow it out! Jingwen asked.
Liu Qing couldn't answer, because this was simply gambling! Sometimes, knowing people and faces but not knowing their hearts, and even once they reach the position of power and wealth, they will be tempted when they are not tempted. There are even some people who feel unbalanced, they help others to manage, others don't have to pay anything, they are all working for nothing, and they can't get any benefits. This kind of psychology is also there.
is like the powerful ministers in the court, although he didn't plan to usurp the throne at first, but later he grasped the power, and he had more henchmen. But at this time, if the emperor wants to regain power, those powerful ministers will also be forced to usurp the throne in order to protect their power position. This is also an unsolvable proposition, because even if the ancestors trust it, it is in the absence of being able to completely grasp the wealth of power. It's hard to say what would have changed if those cronies had taken the place of their sons in power and wealth. It's like a person, before he became an emperor, and after he became an emperor, he was exactly the same as two people.
"Generally speaking, this kind of management is managed by relatives." Liu Qing said.
"Huh, relatives? Sometimes relatives are even more reassuring, and it is more comfortable for relatives to seize power. Jingwen snorted.
Liu Qing also has nothing to say, because relatives are indeed not very safe. Because in the same family, it's okay if you don't have a different mind, but if you have a different mind, I'm afraid it's even more dangerous. Because in ancient times, embezzling the wealth of relatives may be more smooth in terms of the legal basis of legitimacy. Even, if it is an internal rebellion within the imperial family, it is much more legitimate than the rebellion of foreign ministers, which is a problem brought by the ancient family world.
"So, it's time for us to do the audit! If we are available, the big ones can spend regular money to audit their shopkeepers to make sure they don't have any bad ideas. And even if those descendants do not succeed, they can also hand over the property to others, and then let their descendants regularly let our accountant audit the accounts, so that those shopkeepers have no way to hollow out the industry. And those incompetent descendants can also rely on a large amount of dividends to get a chic life, they just need to have people check the accounts regularly. And we are the best people to be, because we don't have any direct business dealings with them, and we don't have any contact with people in their industry. So, in a certain way, we are the most impartial auditors. They can let us audit it! Jingwen said.
Jingwen's method is very simple, that is, to advocate professional managers. If those incompetent descendants are unable to master the estate, give it to someone else. And they can rely on those external accountants to conduct audits, so as to ensure that their property is not embezzled by their subordinate treasurers. However, if you want to develop professional managers, this is still a bit far. At present, it will probably take many years for Jingwen to develop a professional manager. And this accounting firm can develop together with the professional manager system.
This is the purpose of this accounting firm at present, which can be used to help others audit the property and ensure that other people's property is not embezzled. And many people are willing to look for this kind of person because he can audit impartially.
