As soon as Ye Li's foot injury was healed, he couldn't wait to go to the same city. After opening for more than half a month, the business of the same city was far from being as good as Ye Li imagined, and there were only a few people in the store, most of whom came to take a look and asked twice before leaving.

Han Qing was very surprised when he saw Ye Li: "Childe, you can be regarded as here, you haven't seen a trace for more than ten days, it's really a headache!" ”

"I'm sorry, there's something going on at home these days, and I can't leave." Ye Li said apologetically. As soon as the new store opened, the owner disappeared without a trace, which if it was changed, I am afraid that someone else would have left it alone.

"Is this the case in the store all the time?"

Han Qing nodded embarrassedly: "The first few days were fine, there were discounts, although many people just came to see it, but there were also orders." It's also my lack of ability to attract customers. ”

"Uncle Han is too modest, since you were introduced by Miss Yunsheng, your ability is naturally one of the best in Shengjing." Ye Li said, "Tongchengju is involved in a new industry, and it is normal for everyone not to buy it." By the way, what about the scholar before? ”

"It's in our store! I saw that he had a flexible brain and could settle accounts, so I was reluctant to introduce him to others. ”

Ye Li bowed slightly, knowing that it was a good thing to retain talents, but she also had to look at the value of this talent.

"Shi Qian, this is our owner, surnamed Ye."

Zhen Shiqian was making calculations, and when he heard the words, he looked over, but he didn't expect that the other party turned out to be a son younger than him. It's no wonder that there is a lack of business and a loss in the account.

"What are you counting?" Ye Li took the account book and looked at it carefully.

"The daily expenses of the store, according to the current situation, I am afraid that the first month of opening in the same city will have to make ends meet and lose money." Zhen Shiqian said seriously, not afraid of offending people at all, "Why don't you consider changing your industry?" ”

"Everything is difficult at the beginning, if you encounter a little trouble and change your career, what big things can you accomplish?" Ye Li raised his eyebrows slightly, "Tell me about the situation of this ledger." ”

Zhen Shiqian said: "Before the opening, the store decoration and material purchase cost 5,320 taels; On June 20, Yipinju recruited four tea waiters and eight taels of silver; On June 23, the Chi family recruited five families and entered twenty taels of silver; On June 25, the Chi family recruited five maids and received twenty taels of silver......"

Ye Li listened for a long time, the transaction records on this ledger were either from the Chi family, or from Yipinju, and there were also two orders in Ruyi Pavilion. I'm afraid that Chi Xu and Gu Yunsheng are interested in helping her.

"I think there's something wrong with this bookkeeping method." Zhen Shiqian said bluntly, "Cangwu State continues to use the outdated bookkeeping method, which is simple, although it is simple and easy to understand, but the account records are difficult to complete, and it is too detailed and redundant to record, and it is very easy to deceive." ”

Ye Li's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but look at the scholar in front of him: "Go on." ”

"Forget it, it's useless to talk about it." Zhen Shiqian sighed. What's more, he felt that this young boy might not necessarily understand this.

Ye Li smiled: "If you don't say it, how do you know that there is no intention?" ”

"I've said it countless times before, but every time it's useless, and if I keep talking, I'm afraid I'll lose the job I managed to find again."

Based on what he said just now, Ye Li knew that this Zhen Shiqian was indeed a talent, not only able to settle accounts, but also to use his brains. If she hadn't understood the modern set of double-entry bookkeeping, I'm afraid she wouldn't have seen any shortcomings in Cangwuguo's bookkeeping.

"Uncle Han didn't tell you that my fellow city residents like to listen to guys talk more and tell the truth?" Ye Li said, "Even if it's a fantasy, as long as what you say is reasonable, it's a wise saying." ”

Zhen Shiqian hesitated a little before he slowly said his thoughts, "In my opinion, the account book has to be classified, and there can be a general ledger for one year to record the income, expenditure and fixed loss of the same city residence in this year. Then there is a detailed account for each season or month to record the details. And on what basis to register, for example, the shopkeeper Han told me that he needed to pay twenty taels of silver to buy pen and ink, but the two taels recorded in the account book actually only cost ten taels, and the rest of the silver went into the purse of the shopkeeper Han, which led to the distortion of the account book, which shows that the account made by only one person's mouth is not reliable. ”

Han Qing was speechless: "Don't make an analogy with me next time." "It's as if he's really hidden a dozen taels of silver.

Zhen Shiqian said sorry and continued: "In addition, the ins and outs of the silver should be remembered in detail, if there is any mistake, there is a source." ”

"What did you do before?" Ye Li asked.

"Three generations of ancestors have been in business, but when they were young, their families were in the middle of the road, and their parents did some small business to make ends meet. I came to Shengjing three years ago and participated in the two scientific examinations, but I failed to make the list. So I thought about staying temporarily, first, I really didn't have the shame to go back to see my father and mother, and second, I also wanted to find a way out in Shengjing. ”

"What you're saying is really a deficiency of the existing bookkeeping methods." Ye Li bowed slightly, "But what you said is also on paper, if you really want to change the existing bookkeeping method, just talking about it is far from enough." ”

"Childe agrees with what I said?" Zhen Shiqian was surprised but also unbelievable.

"Of course, the improvement methods you mentioned are not complete, but they do make sense." Ye Li got up, "If you can sort out a more complete and specific accounting method, I can consider trying it." ”

"Is that true?" Zhen Shiqian asked excitedly, "Okay, three days, three days later, the son will come over again, and I will write a set of practical methods." ”

"Three days is not enough, and three months is fine." Ye Li said with a smile, "After all, if it's really useful, it's not just a trial in the same city." No major change in history was planned in just three days. ”

The appearance of Zhen Shiqian filled Ye Li's heart with a great ambition.

It would also be a good thing if the advanced double-entry bookkeeping method could be applied in this place.

After leaving the same city, Ye Li sat in the Yayin Fang opposite for a while, and soon Chi Xu rushed over.

"I heard you didn't go back to the General's Mansion?" As soon as Ji Xu sat down, he began to look left and right, "Just you?" ”

"Who else?" Ye Li raised his cheeks and looked at the little student singing on the stage.

Chi Xu smiled wryly: "Tell me quickly, are you and King Jin really going to reconcile?" ”

"Who told you we were going to reconcile?" Ye Li said dissatisfied.

"My aunt and grandmother!" Chi Xu said, "When I entered the palace a few days ago, I heard her say that your eldest brother asked the emperor for a decree and asked you to reconcile with King Jin. ”

Ye Li was annoyed, but fortunately, she escaped with her thoughts, otherwise the holy decree of harmony and separation would have come down.

"Xiaoli, you ...... with King Jin"

"It's impossible to get along." Ye Li interrupted him angrily, "I want to ask you, what is your family doing with so many people?" ”

Chi Xu's face turned pale, shaking his fan, "Hehe, my backyard is big, three generations are in the same house, and the population is large, so it's good to call more people!" ”

"Edit, you just keep making it up." Ye Li glanced at him, "Don't do this again in the future." ”

Chi Xu said seriously: "But I really have something to ask you for help, do you remember the Lin family wood line I told you last time?" The boss wants to open a branch in Nanshi, ask me to find a store for him, and if you have time, I will introduce you there. ”

"Make an appointment with him, I'll be available at any time."

"Let's meet tomorrow at the Ruyi Pavilion in the evening."

Lin's wood shop is also relatively famous in Shengjing, and if this business is negotiated, it will not only be as simple as making a sum of money for the same city.

Ye Li took the news about the streets of Nanshi from Han Qing's hand, but there were a few stores that needed to change hands. But the specific situation, she has to see for herself.

"Uncle Lin, this is the boss of the same city I told you, you can leave the matter of finding a store to her, and she will definitely be able to help you find a good store." Ji Xu introduced.

"Hello, Boss Lin." Ye Li got up and stretched out his hand politely.

Lin Zhihe shook hands with her with a smile, "Ye Gongzi opened his own shop and did business at a young age, which is really admirable." ”

Most of what he said was just polite, after all, Chi Xu was an idle son, and the people who played with him, in addition to some family background, what else could he do?

"I heard that Boss Lin wants to open a branch in Nanshi?" Ye Li cut straight to the topic.

"I have this plan, but I'm not familiar with Nanshi, I don't know if Ye Gongzi can help find a shop, the location...... Don't be too out of the way, preferably in the city center; The store should not be smaller than the existing one, at least 100 square meters, and most importantly, it must be clean. ”

Ye Li bowed slightly, "Your situation, Chi Xu told me before, there are indeed stores in Nanshi that meet your requirements." However, I think that Boss Lin's decision to open a branch in Nanshi can be reconsidered? ”

"What do you mean by that?" The smile on Lin Zhihe's face narrowed a little.

"Nanshi is not as prosperous as Dongshi, but it is also a densely populated place in Shengjing, with gambling market and Yanliu Lane in the east, Nanhuai Road in the west, and two major residential areas in the west, and most of the surrounding residents are permanent residents for several generations. What's more, although the popularity of Immortal Wood in Shengjing is not as high as that of the Lin family, it also has a century-old foundation in Nanshi......"

These words would come out of the mouth of a young man who was not yet in his early twenties, Lin Zhihe looked at Ye Li's eyes cautiously, and his tone was a little displeased: "You mean, my Lin Clan's Wood Shop is no match for the Immortal Wood Rank?" ”

"Of course not." Ji Xu helped to play the round, "How could he mean that?" ”

Ye Li said unhurriedly: "The strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, presumably Boss Lin has also heard this." More than half of the residents of Nanshi basically use the furniture of the Immortal Wood Shop, and some large households have cooperated with the Immortal Wood Shop for a long time. I believe that Boss Lin has the ability to suppress the Immortal Wood Xing, but during this period, some financial and material resources must be consumed. What's more, there is nothing to do in the business of the Immortal Wood Store in Nanshi, after all, wood is only valuable when it is needed. ”
