Chapter 197: Staying Up All Night
While tobacco does have medicinal properties, it is not limited to that.
Moreover, his original intention of looking for tobacco was not all for the wounded soldiers, but also for himself and the Ning family.
But this matter can only be known by God, the earth, and others.
So I can only hide it from everyone.
"You haven't eaten dinner yet, I'll let the kitchen cook whatever you want."
Ning Wuxian is not good at auditing accounts.
If it is the account book he is familiar with, forget it, the account book here is very cumbersome, and he recognizes all the words, but when he looks up, he can see that it is called a dizziness.
"Ning Gongzi, I'm not hungry yet, you can let the kitchen prepare some simple and effortless meals, and eat them when I'm hungry."
Ji Jin stood in front of the stack of accounts that Ning Wuxian had just pushed open, and after flipping through a few pages, he commanded Ju Xiang and the others.
"Ju Xiang, a few of you will first check the door tax records leading to the Western Regions and Lingnan according to the catalog, first eliminate those who have made a special trip to transport one or two goods, and throw them aside at a glance, so you don't need to look through them carefully."
As soon as these words came out, Shen Youchu tilted his head, his face full of confusion.
"Why, why did you do this? What if something is missing? ”
Right...... Wrong!
Ning Wuxian reacted, his eyes lit up, and he immediately understood what Ji Jin meant, and couldn't help but sigh: Miss Ji does have two brushes in terms of auditing.
Ji Jin continued to look through the account books that had just been eliminated by Ning Wuxian without raising his head, and explained softly.
"According to what Ning Gongzi just said, if the previous boss knew the effect of tobacco, he would definitely buy flowers and plants, but after he bought them, he only used them as flowers, which means that he bought seeds."
"And these seeds, the number should not be much, it is likely that they were obtained by chance, and then resold to the previous boss, after all, the other party is the owner of a flower shop, if the purchase quantity is large, you must know its use."
After Ji Jin's analysis, everyone suddenly became enlightened.
Reasonable.
Whether it is from the Western Regions or Lingnan or exotic flowers and plants from other places, even if it is a seed, it will not be too cheap.
If the boss knew the miracle effect of tobacco, he would not have let it fend for itself, thinking that it would be like silver dangrass, bought to pick up the leakage.
Therefore, it must not be in large quantities, and it is absolutely impossible to make a special trip for something like tobacco.
Then those goods that are single can be eliminated, and there is no need to check whether it has changed its name and surname, and whether it has a provenance from the tobacco that Ning Wuxian talked about.
"But in this way, it is even more difficult to find this handful of seeds from a pile of accounts."
Shen Youchu sighed a little distressedly.
In order not to give up, she simply made bold statements.
"Jin'er, the day after tomorrow is the Begging Festival."
"I know, I'm not going."
Ji Jin flipped through a catalog, stacked it at his feet with the one he had just finished, and rejected Shen Youchu's invitation without thinking.
Since tobacco is so important to Ning Gongzi.
Even if she checked all the account books in this room alone, she would find this miracle medicine!
Shen Youchu knew that once Ji Jin became more serious, he would automatically form an atmosphere where no one would disturb him.
She had to take advantage of Ji Jin's "sneaking" into the ledger and let Ji Jin bring her in.
"Jin'er, whoever finds the source of the tobacco first, who will go to the begging festival with Ning Gongzi, Ning Gongzi, okay?"
Yes???
Ning Wuxian, who was thinking about what to give them for dinner, didn't expect Shen Youchu to suddenly make such a request.
How to say that?
This request is actually nothing to him.
The begging festival here also comes from the Cowherd and Vega, but it is not Valentine's Day, but Daughter's Day, on that day, you can invite friends to play and enjoy the lantern party, gather by the river in summer, put a lotus lantern, and pray for a happy marriage.
And he also saw that Shen Youchu deliberately wanted to use this request to stimulate herself.
It wasn't necessarily for the sake of having a begging festival with him that he said this.
"I'm fine, what about Miss Ji?"
Smack.
The ledger in Ji Jin's hand fell to the ground in an instant.
Then, with trembling hands, she picked up the ledger as if nothing had happened, slowly turned her back, and let out a low "um" that she agreed.
Meanwhile.
Ji Jin flipped through the ledger faster, and his heartbeat accelerated.
The words in the account book were passed in his eyes, but his mind couldn't help flashing the beautiful picture of walking by Xuanwu Lake with Ning Gongzi on the night of the Qiqiao Festival to enjoy the flowers and lanterns.
Whew......
In addition to the sound of breathing, the sound of flipping books is in the room.
Even Ju Xiang brought a chair and asked Ji Jin to sit down and look at it again, but Ji Jin didn't have any reaction.
Until, Ji Jin stopped flipping through the book by himself.
She turned around and looked at the pile of books behind Ning Wuxian.
"Ju Xiang, in the 'C' category at noon, there was a car loaded with groceries and entered the city on the eighth day of March last year, which came from the Western Regions, check the equivalent cargo records of that day."
"Understood."
Ju Xiang hurriedly took an account gentleman to check it.
Ning Wuxian glanced at the ten lines at a glance, and in less than a stick of incense, he checked the four account book catalogs, and Ji Jin, who could still find clues from them, admired it in his heart.
Miss Ji is really rigorous and serious.
What does Miss Ji like to eat?
"Ning Gongzi, if you want to cook it yourself, remember to make a sauerkraut fish for Jin'er, and choose a fish body with fewer spines."
Shen Youchu didn't know when, holding an account book, rubbing his eyes, and came over.
It's so hard!
She looked at it for a while, and felt that there were more stars in front of her eyes than outside.
Mother has always said that she is still young and is not busy learning housekeeping affairs, and now she realizes that she is too far behind Jin'er who has been in charge of the entire Ji family in this regard.
This time, it seems that she can't help Ning Gongzi much, so she can only let Jin'er eat and drink well, so that she can read these account books before the Qiqiao Festival.
"Sauerkraut fish...... Okay, I got it. ”
Ning Wuxian took a deep look at Ji Jin, who was surrounded by candlelight, not disturbed by the outside world at all, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
is so serious and persistent, she is worthy of the title of the first talented woman in Jinling.
He didn't waste any more time standing still.
After going to the kitchen to cook the meal himself, he simply ate a few meat buns and joined the team of turning over the account book.
Midnight.
The candles were still lit in the room.
Until the time of the rooster's crow.
Ning Wuxian looked up at Ji Jin, who was pinching his eyebrows and refreshing, and then at Shen Youchu, who was asleep on the table, and persuaded in a low voice: "Miss Ji, if you are sleepy, go to sleep first." ”
After a night of fierce fighting.
The list he had eliminated was re-consulted.
Luckily, he was right.
Unfortunately, he was right.
After a night's progress, the account books in the room have been checked into one percent.
Shen Youchu had already asked Ju Xiang to go to other counties to invite the bookkeeper of the Shen family's shop, and after daylight today, he should be able to read three or four times.
"I'm not sleepy yet."
Ji Jin let go of his hand, opened a pair of reddened beautiful eyes, and smiled at him confidently.
