Chapter 162: Butler Song Yi?

Song Yi thought that the Wang family would be restless when he went back, so he found various reasons to shirk it, and was unwilling to hand over the housekeeper rights.

But unexpectedly, on the third day, the Wang family sent the account books in the mansion over.

The Wang family suddenly changed his attitude and took the initiative to send the account books, Song Yi was still a little puzzled at first, but listening to the meaning of Wang's words, it should be the old lady Du who arranged for her to do this.

Song Yi thought about it and understood the truth.

Without arguing, he took the account books of the True King's Mansion.

Although the old lady didn't say it explicitly, the account books in the palace were handed over to the princess, and she had already seen the old lady's attitude, this is the old lady is going to hand over the palace to the princess.

The well-informed people in the house have already seen some doorways, so they dare not underestimate the princess who has just entered the door.

It's only a matter of time before the princess is housekeeper. Everyone didn't dare to slack off, hoping to make a good impression in front of the princess.

With this conjecture, the people in the mansion became more attentive to Song Yi's orders. Song Yi is even busier.

In the eyes of outsiders, the True Wangfu is a big family and a century-old family, but in fact, the inside has already been pierced by thousands of holes, and it is just a false appearance.

Song Yi did not study finance in the past, nor did he engage in accounting work, and the most contact with money was nothing more than daily accounts, and he would not read complex and cumbersome ancient account books at all.

Song Yi began to take over, everything had to be learned and sold now, and it was inevitable to take some detours and do some useless work.

Fortunately, she has a good helper by her side, that is, Mother Gui next to the true king. With the help of Gui's mother, Song Yi got twice the result with half the effort, and quickly sorted out some clues.

The Qian's founding was a hundred years old, and after the founding of the country and the capital of Chang'an, the Zhenwangfu existed, so that the Zhenwangfu also has a history of a hundred years.

This 100-year period is naturally not a wasted time.

The True Palace, in the hearts of the emperors of all dynasties, was very important. The emperor is not a stingy person, and the reward given to the real palace is very rich, and the successive princes of the real palace have the consciousness of being prepared for danger in times of peace, and they have continued to purchase industries in the territory of the Qian, and have gradually accumulated a lot of capital.

Even if Song Yi didn't sleep, it still took ten days to roughly go through the account books of the five years of the True King's Mansion.

Zhu Xi felt very sorry for Song Yi, and saw her looking at the account books of the palace day and night. He wanted to help, but Song Yi wouldn't let him help. Zhu Xi can only do a good job in logistics, so that she has no worries.

But Song Yi thinks that it is better to finish what you have to do sooner or later than later, isn't it?

So, she promised to do whatever she had to do.

Zhu Xi also had no choice but to take Song Yi, so he stopped persuading, but at night, he deliberately made trouble, so that Song Yi couldn't concentrate, and finally had to go to bed.

Song Yi couldn't find a way to avoid the man's "conspiracy and tricks", so he could only let him do whatever he wanted.

It also slowed down her progress.

Fortunately, Gui's mother helped a lot.

Mother Gui has always felt that the old lady has regarded the real palace as her own bag over the years, and openly and secretly, she has taken all the assets of the palace for herself and divided them up.

I heard that the eldest lady Wang sent the account books of the past five years, so she took the initiative to ask Ying to help Song Yi check the accounts.

This investigation is not tight, and it really made her find out the big problem.

"How can this be reasonable" Gui's mother held the account book, her hands trembled, and she gritted her teeth.

"Mother Gui, what's wrong with you?" Haruka was confused.

Chunxiang, like Xianglian, is not very literate, and she can't read the ledger.

When Song Yi looked at the account book, the two of them were doing some work on the side to serve tea and water.

Now, Gui's mother had an angry expression on her face.

Haruka saw it, so she asked.

"Princess, these people are really daring. The foundation of the True King's Mansion is so big, but now it has reached the point where it can't make ends meet. Behold, the money goes out like a stream of money in this account, but not much comes in."

"I also discovered that the industry left by my ancestors has never made a profit after years of loss. But up and down the family, there are hundreds of mouths to eat every day. It is equivalent to sitting on a mountain and eating nothing. Looking at this account, I'm afraid it won't last long."

"Princess, you don't know. The old slave is the son of the royal house, and he has been in the palace all his life, watching the rise and fall of the palace. The ancestors sheltered in the shade and left behind thousands of family fortunes. There are also a lot of Zhuangzi and shops in the palace, the wind and rain have been smooth in recent years, although the border is in turmoil, but the palace is engaged in grain and restaurant business in the capital, and it is not affected much. But this shop and Zhuangzi, since the management of the old lady and the eldest lady, have not made a profit, and they are all sticking money into it. Where do they have the heart to manage the family business, and now they are even more undisguised and blatantly guarding and stealing. I thought that they would not bury the inheritance left by their ancestors. But who knows, they are so insatiable, the True King's Mansion is already a castle in the air, and there is only an empty shelf. The money in the account, at the current rate of spending, can't support half a year."

"Mother Gui, don't be angry. The matter has come to this, and they will not admit it if they turn over the old accounts. They thought that the real palace was already a mess, so they threw it at us. Don't be angry, don't be annoyed, I promise you, since I want to accept it, I will naturally let them return all the principal and interest."

"Princess, what are you going to do? I think I still have to tell the prince about this matter and let him know."

"No," Song Yi hurriedly stopped Gui's mother, "Don't tell the prince about this matter first." Let's figure out a way for ourselves first, and if it really doesn't work, I'll tell the prince."

"Princess, is this good? What can you do? Mother Gui obviously didn't believe the princess, and seemed a little hesitant.

"Mom, this is a matter of being a princess. If I didn't deal with it personally, I would have sought the help of the prince at the beginning, and if there was a problem later, I still couldn't deal with it alone. Everything is thrown to the prince, so what's the use of me as a princess? ”

Song Yi said such things on his lips, but in fact, he had no bottom in his heart.

There is very little liquidity left in the accounts, and the daily expenses of this family are not a small amount.

It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift.

Now there is only one way to open up sources and reduce expenditure, but it is rare to get rid of those silverfish quickly and cut off their tails to survive.

This also requires Song Yi to think long-term.

That night, Song Yi returned to the room early to be sad.

Zhu Xi came in from outside and saw Song Yi lying on the bed with his eyes closed.

Zhu Xi stepped forward and looked at the woman's somewhat haggard face.

A little distressed: "What are you doing with that Rausch thing?" In my opinion, it is better to leave the housekeeper's affairs to those people, and let them toss. With me, how can I lack you to eat and drink? ”

"What do you say?" Song Yi opened his eyes, and his eyes were a little bloodshot because of exertion.

"The True King's Mansion is the home of the two of us, and where someone sees that there is a problem with their own family, they will throw it to others. In the past, you didn't marry me, and it was inconvenient for you to take care of these affairs in the house. Now that you have me, I naturally want to be a qualified wife. If someone else can manage a family, so can I. ”

"Doesn't I feel sorry for you? These days, you go out early and come home late, and you even dream at night and settle accounts. Look at you now, it's only been a few days, and you've lost a lot of weight."

"Don't feel sorry for me. Isn't this just how I started? Everything is difficult at the beginning, and I am also learning, and everything needs to be explored slowly. Later, things are on the right track, and I don't have to be so tired. Don't you believe me? Don't talk about a real king's mansion, just give me a city, as long as I give me time, I can manage it in an orderly manner."

"I believe in you" Zhu Xi naturally sat down next to Song Yi and let her relax.

The two remained silent all night until dawn the next day.

Zhu Xi opened his eyes and saw that the woman next to him was still asleep.

So he got out of bed lightly, walked outside, and called Xiao Hei.

"What has the princess been busy with lately, go ask me for me"

Yin Xiaohei saw that the prince was serious, so he nodded and went down.

Song Yi didn't know this, so he just had a good night's sleep.

After breakfast, Song Yi took Xianglian and Chunxiang out of the house.

It turned out that she reassured Gui's mother yesterday, but in fact, she didn't have the bottom herself.

I thought about a private visit to Weifu, and secretly inspected all the shops in the capital of the True King's Mansion to see what went wrong that would cause such a big deficit.

The shops of Zhenwangfu in the capital involve all aspects, such as grain and oil shops, restaurants, money villages, garment shops, rouge shops and so on.

It stands to reason that they are all money-making businesses, and in addition, the store of the True King's Mansion is not a remote corner.

The capital is full of flowers and pedestrians, and you can't see the depressed scene no matter how you look at it.

Song Yi ran for a few days, and finally finished the store in the True King's Mansion, and he knew the problem in his heart.

Just wait for the time to go back, come up with a charter, and then deal with it well.
