Chapter 68: Defeat
It wasn't until this moment that Gu Ruan Ruan realized that he was being put in a frost red position!
Frost Red said this, so wouldn't it seem too stingy if she didn't sacrifice this method?
But she originally planned to talk to Gu Baiyu and let her manage part of the Hou Mansion's industry!
This plan, she also said in private contact with some of the weak-minded shopkeepers, and those people now saw that the situation had taken a turn for the worse, and some of them could not hold their breath and spoke.
"I think Aunt Gu has a good method, Aunt Gu seems to be very clever, so many properties in the Hou Mansion are taken care of by Mrs. alone, it is really tiring, why don't you let Gu Yiniang also help share your worries?"
Gu Baiyu's face didn't change, he just looked at it with a smile and asked the others, "This is indeed a good proposal, but it's not a ...... for me to say this alone."
As soon as she said this, three people immediately chimed inβ
"We also think that Mr. Li's proposal is good."
"That's it, I just saw that Aunt Gu said that the head is the way, and I heard that Aunt Gu and Mrs. Gu are sisters, so it is natural for my sister to help my sister share some family affairs."
β¦β¦
Gu Baiyu, who had been silent, talked for a long time, nodded and said, "Okay, there are four shopkeepers in total, right?" β
Those people only then came back to the future, and they were shocked to realize that they had said so much, Gu Baiyu had not spoken, was it too calm?
It's not good in my heart, but it's too late to regret it!
I saw Gu Baiyu looking at them with a smile and said, "Since several shopkeepers think that my sister is a good hand at doing business, why don't you let Aunt Gu take care of the property under the hands of several shopkeepers in the future, and you can go home to live for the rest of your life, how about it?" β
Those people panicked!
Several of them were tired of the accounts, and just thinking about how to get through the audit of the accounts, Gu Ruan Ruan found them.
said that she could help say some good things, if she could share some rights from Gu Baiyu's hands, then Gu Ruan Ruan was not to blame for the accounts they had done before, but they never thought that they would leave the Hou Mansion from now on!
"How can this work, no matter what Aunt Gu says, she is half a master, why bother to take care of these things herself?"
Gu Baiyu sneered.
"You also know that he is half a master, and of course it is not his turn to take care of this kind of thing personally! Do I raise so many people under my command to eat idle food? β
She withdrew her gaze and looked at Gu Ruanruan.
"I have to thank my sister for giving me advice, and worrying about my future fatigue, I accepted this bookkeeping method, come on, take Aunt Gu to the account room to pay some silver, just thank you!"
Gu Ruan Ruan was anxious, turned her gaze to the frost red on the side, and motioned for her to say something with her eyes.
But she didn't expect Shuanghong to suddenly speak: "Madam, this method of bookkeeping Aunt Gu didn't want to give, I lobbied from it, since Aunt Gu has a reward, then do I have it?" β
Gu Baiyu snorted and laughed, "Yes!" Yes, of course! β
Shuanghong nodded, and her eyes swept over the shopkeepers who had just spoken for Gu Baiyu, a total of four people.
She pointed to the fifth person, who had been sitting at the end and had not spoken.
"I look at Shopkeeper Yang and admire Aunt Gu very much."
Gu Baiyu suddenly understood that this shopkeeper Yang had probably also met Gu Ruan Ruan in private, so his smile became even brighter.
"Well, then I'd like to thank Miss Frost Red for reminding me."
"Lingyu, in addition to giving Miss Frost Red some silver as a reward, you can go to my treasury and find some good jewelry for Miss Frost Red."
Lingyu nodded in response, and Frost Red turned around to leave.
Gu Ruan Ruan was so anxious that she wanted to hold her, but Shuanghong shook her hand away.
"Aunt Gu, what are you doing here? You asked me to say a few kind words for you today, so that Madame may adopt your opinion, I have already said it, and Madame has also given you a reward, what else do you want? β
The words were so straightforward, Gu Ruan Ruan didn't know how to refute them at all!
Do you want to question her in front of everyone, why don't you help her take power from Gu Baiyu?
Gu Baiyu had seen enough of this joke, so he said lightly: "Come on, help Aunt Gu rest, and ...... another."
She turned her gaze to the shopkeepers on the side and clicked on the five shopkeepers, "You don't need to check the accounts of the others, check the accounts of the five of them again, not check what they brought today, you take someone to the shop of their museum to go to the store in person, one by one, check all the accounts of these years." β
Hearing this, the faces of those people turned pale.
All of them had problems with their accounts.
But now that the tide is gone, what arguments they are making are just futile struggles.
Gu Baiyu has clear rewards and punishments for doing things, he has to check the accounts with problems, and he has to reward those who have no problems.
So he promised everyone, "After this check, everyone who does a good job for the Hou Ye will naturally be rewarded, as long as the accounts are correct, the annual money will rise by two percent every year, if it is found that there is a problem with the accounts...... Then what should I do, okay, I'm a little tired, and for the next account, I'll trouble the old housekeeper to take Ji Hongan to the shop and check it out in person. β
The old butler smiled and took over the task and sent the shopkeepers out.
Someone was barely able to stand on his feet when he got up.
But there is no regret medicine in this world, from the day they choose the corpse vegetarian meal and get oil and water from the accounts of the Hou Mansion, they should understand the outcome of today.
After sending everyone away, the old housekeeper personally went to Gu Baiyu to ask for guilt.
"Madam, in the past, I didn't control these people well, and half of them were fishing in troubled waters."
Gu Baiyu shook his head at him: "I don't blame you, you have to deal with the affairs of the Hou Mansion every day, and you have to help the Hou Ye take care of these things, you are already very tired, so leave it to me in the future." β
The old housekeeper was very relieved after hearing this, and from today's incident, he also saw Gu Baiyu's methods, handing over the family business of the Hou Mansion to such a hostess, what else could he not worry about?
After the old butler said these words, he suddenly remembered another thing, and he stopped talking a little, and finally said: "Madam, Shuanghong, she may not be what you think, she is a hard-working woman. β¦β¦β
Gu Baiyu nodded: "I understand, I will see her in person later." β
Gu Baiyu could see that Gu Ruan Ruan had indeed gone to woo Shuanghong, but Shuanghong did not accept Gu Ruanruan's overtures, otherwise she would not have said that the form was originally intended to be dedicated to Gu Baiyu before Gu Ruan Ruan asked her for rights through bookkeeping.
If there was no frost red today, Gu Baiyu would certainly not give the right to Gu Ruanruan.
But if there are other shopkeepers who are in the way, she will have to take some trouble to solve these things.
But with Shuanghong's words, everything became logical, not only not letting outsiders see the jokes of the two sisters, but also making Gu Ruanruan's plan come to naught.
Perhaps, she should have seen the frost red.
