Chapter 72 The Fish Hooked
Chapter 72: Fish take the hook
After leaving the escort agency, Chen Wanrong went to the winery again. He saw Sun Zhengping and Xiao Zhizhong busy with their friends, sweating profusely. He was a shopkeeper, so he was so tired that he was speechless. Those who didn't know him had to be a winery, not a shopkeeper.
"I've met my boss!" Sun Zhengping hurriedly came up, and Xiao Zhizhong followed.
Chen Wanrong smiled and said, "Shopkeeper Sun, are you a shopkeeper or a wine worker? If I don't know you, I will treat you as a wine worker."
Sun Zhengping smiled and was very excited: "Boss, where did you say this? It seems like I can't work?"
"It's not that you can't work, it's just that your main task is to manage it well, it's not that you want to work like them." Chen Wanrong corrected his words.
Sun Zhengping smiled unabated: "Boss, you don't know, I'm happy."
Chen Wanrong was very interested in this: "Oh, what makes you so happy? Tell me quickly."
Xiao Zhizhong replied on his behalf: "Our boss, I didn't tell you that Liu Shenxian will come to help Manager Sun's son treat his illness. Liu Shenxian is so capable, can this disease be cured by someone who is as good as Liu Shenxian? Manager Sun is so happy and energetic, and he is full of energy. He has no place to rob us of our jobs."
Sun Zhengping was very respected and loved by Xiao Zhizhong and others, so he was naturally very concerned about his affairs, and it was not surprising to know. Besides, this was a happy event. Sun Zhengping was happy and there was something wrong with them.
Xiao Zhizhong and Sun Zhengping have worked with him for many years, and they are happy for Sun Zhengping from the bottom of their hearts. Although they are joked, their joy is all included.
"Then I have to congratulate you. I wish the young master a quick recovery!" Chen Wanrong congratulated.
Sun Zhengping hurriedly bowed his fists and replied: "Thank you, Xie Dongjia! Ask you, the boss will be able to recover as before!" Looking forward to the good things of his son's recovery, the eyebrows were filled with joy, and I wish they would come true immediately.
The father-son family relationship was undoubtedly revealed, and Chen Wanrong was deeply infected and said, "When will you go back? I will go with you. If I don't see such a capable god, I would be too blind."
"If it's convenient, I'll leave tomorrow afternoon. Liu Shenxian is coming, I have to prepare, right?" Sun Zhengping smiled, and his mouth was closed. Liu Shenxian was a life-saving benefactor in his eyes. If he didn't receive it well, he would be uneasy.
Chen Wanrong nodded and said, "Okay, let's go together tomorrow afternoon."
"Okay!" Sun Zhengping nodded happily without thinking.
This matter was decided. Chen Wanrong, accompanied by Sun Zhengping, walked around and then left the winery and went straight to the county government. This time, the official on duty did not stop Chen Wanrong and allowed him to go to the side hall to find Shen Que.
Shen Que was still sitting in the last seat, doing official duties in disheveled clothes. Seeing Chen Wanrong come in, he hurriedly put down his official duties and greeted him: "Brother Wanrong is coming, must there be good news?" He glanced at Chen Wanrong, very confident.
His judgment was really accurate. Chen Wanrong was convinced from the bottom of his heart. His left eye flashed at him and said with a smile: "Mr. Shen, are you just seeing him like that? I can't talk to you if I have nothing to do? I'm a hot face and put it on your cold butt, I'd better go back."
Shen Qi nodded slightly, indicating that he understood, and joked: "Brother Wanrong, don't you just want me to treat you as a guest of honor? Okay, let's go somewhere else to have a cup of tea." He held Chen Wanrong's hand and pulled it together. Chen Wanrong cooperated and acted in a "dare not to be" attitude, and dragged it away by Shen Qi.
Those county officials who were not clear about the investigation shook their heads when they saw it. This county magistrate was really good. If it weren't for the person who knew Shen Que's character, he would have shook his head long ago.
When he came to a room next to him, Chen Que opened the door: "Brother Wanrong, please."
Chen Wanrong responded and stepped in. Chen Que looked around and saw that there was no one. Then he entered the room and closed the door. He didn't ask Chen Wanrong to sit down. He didn't even pour the hot water into the bowl. He really made the point: "Brother Wanrong, is there any news?"
"The fish bite it!" Chen Wanrong looked at Chen Que and said lightly.
Chen Que asked without any surprise or joy, "When?"
"The day after tomorrow! I have to go there tomorrow afternoon." Chen Wanrong did not hide it.
Chen Que pondered for a moment and said, "I know that Manager Sun's house must arrive on time. However, you have to be careful. This person surnamed Liu is not a good person. He is not talking about it all. The tricks of the world are even more eye-catching. If it weren't for the many inconveniences, Brother Wanrong wouldn't have to take this risk."
It would be fine if Chen Wanrong didn't know about this. Since he knew, if he didn't ask Sun Zhengping for justice, he would be too sorry for his conscience. This is what Chen Wanrong should do, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Lord Shen, I have my own way."
"That's good!" Chen Qie nodded.
This matter was decided, and there was no need for Chen Wanrong to stay. Chen Que sent him to the county government office and said goodbye.
After leaving the county government, Chen Wanrong began to think about it and quickly made the ether and took it with him to defend himself. Liu, the martial artsman is very skilled, and he is not an opponent, and he is not a wise man. He has to take it cleverly. The anesthetic of ether is a must. Although it may not come in handy, it is safer than not. If you really want to be in danger, it will fascinate him.
I had a certain idea and rushed back faster. As soon as I got home, I saw Zheng Qing greeting him with a smile: "Brother Chen, where have you been? I haven't come back for a long time."
Although he was complaining and was reluctant to let go, Chen Wanrong smiled and said, "I'll do something. Are you okay?"
"Of course it's good!" Zheng Qing felt that being able to get Chen Wanrong's care was something that made her happy, and her pretty face was full of joy.
Chen Wanrong and Mingxiao her thoughts, and smiled and said, "How is Huahua? Have you kept a hand as a master?"
Zheng Qing gave Chen Wanrong a blank look and said angrily: "Am I that bad? Sister Huahua is so smart, she can teach you it once, so it's easy to teach. If you don't believe it, you can go and see it."
"Believe it! How can I not believe you?" Chen Wanrong lowered his voice and whispered in her ear.
Zheng Qing heard it and was happy in her heart. What else is more happy than trust from her lover? Yanran smiled and said, "Brother Chen, go and see Sister Huahua, she can do her best."
Unable to resist her, Chen Wanrong had to follow her into the floor. As soon as he entered the room, Han Huahua screamed "Oh my God", and hid behind Qing'e in a panic. She was shy when she saw Chen Wanrong and didn't even talk extra, but she wasn't so panic. Chen Wanrong was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's wrong? Huahua."
"Cousin, don't look at others, okay?" Han Huahua hid behind Qing'e and begged.
Chen Wanrong was even more surprised and asked, "Can't you see it? I'll see a lot of meat, it's true."
"Sister Huahua, let me show you Brother Chen. How can he know if he doesn't look at it?" Zheng Qing went over, pulled Han Huahua, and pushed her to Chen Wanrong.
If you don’t look at it, then Chen Wanrong couldn’t help it anymore after seeing it. He laughed out loud, pointed at Han Huahua and asked, “Cousin, why are you wearing this outfit? You’re like a prisoner.”
Han Huahua wore a long gown on her body. The gown was quite strange, not even a tucked waist, and it was no different from the prison clothes worn by prisoners. The difference was that the word "prison" was missing. Chen Wanrong was the first time he saw such a strange dress in his life, he would not be able to laugh.
She was afraid of seeing Chen Wanrong, so she told Chen Wanrong about jokingly, and she wanted to have a hole in the ground and immediately got into it. She hurriedly hid behind Qing'e, but was held by Zheng Qing and Qing'e, blushing with shame, her eyes drooping, and she didn't even dare to look at Chen Wanrong.
"Smart people, don't talk nonsense." Qing'e gave Chen Wanrong a blank look and scolded her.
Zheng Qing explained to Chen Wanrong: "Brother Chen, this is the clothes worn by the accounting room. You have to wear this kind of clothes when you enter the silver treasury to prevent theft of silver."
Chen Wanrong suddenly realized that this method was good. He had no bags or waist on his body, and he couldn't even hide the money. Zheng Qing was so meticulous that he thought about everything. Chen Wanrong smiled and said, "Thank you, you think so thoughtfully. But Huahua is not that kind of person, she doesn't have to wear this dress when entering and leaving."
Zheng Qing was very grateful to Chen Wanrong for his praise and thanks and said, "Brother Chen, how much do you thank you? This is what people should do. We don't have to wear flowers, but in the future there are too many accounts, more people, and more hands, so we can use these clothes."
This is reasonable. With more people, good and bad are inevitable. It is necessary to take necessary measures to prevent crimes. He nodded and said, "That's the reason, but let's talk about it later. Huahua, hurry up and change your clothes."
Han Huahua was waiting for Chen Wanrong's words. She responded and ran away.
Qing'e stuffed a book into Chen Wanrong's hands like a show of his skills, and said proudly: "Smart person, look, this is the account made by Sister Huahua. What a smart person, you use it to make packaging, you really have no vision. The lady has a good vision and knows Sister Huahua's thousands of miles between the salt trucks." This is an allusion to use the "Qiji Salt Truck", which means that Chen Wanrong has no vision.
These words not only flatter Han Huahua, but also earned face for Zheng Qing, and were very good at speaking.
"Qing'e, don't talk nonsense." Zheng Qing understood what she meant and rebuked her.
Even if she didn't say it, Chen Wanrong wouldn't forget it and said back to the question: "Qing has made a contribution, what about you?"
"I have no credit for serving tea and water, and I have worked hard. It's like some people, no one can see them." Qing'e raised her head, looking like she didn't see Chen Wanrong in her eyes.
Chen Wanrong knew that he could not get along with him, so he ignored him and started looking at the account book. The handwriting on the account book was really unspeakable, very poor, and could only be identified. However, for beginners, there were no few strokes and no typos. It was amazing to achieve this. I really didn't see that Han Huahua was actually a piece of material for studying. It's a pity that there was no universal education in the Tang Dynasty, otherwise Han Huahua might be a talented woman who was not big or small.
The account book records today's income and expenditure, how much money was spent, how much money was spent, how much balance was spent, and how much balance was spent in the account. It was written clearly, and this account was done well.
"Hello, master is better!" Chen Wanrong smiled and praised two words.
Zheng Qing didn't care about Chen Wanrong's praise, but the recognition of her lover was more important than anything else. Zheng Qing looked at Chen Wanrong with affection, and she was very happy.
Just when Zheng Qing was happy, Chen Wanrong said: "This account is done well, but it would be even better if he could change the account book."
Before Zheng Qing could speak, Qing'e burst out laughing: "Smart man, can you still make accounts? This account book was brought by the lady. Our Zheng family has used this account book for decades. This is a general account book in the Tang Dynasty. How do you change it?"
In her impression, Chen Wanrong can do chemical engineering and has many magical ideas. If Chen Wanrong says that the account is not done well, she should improve it and she will believe it. But changing the account book is a big deal, and even an experienced old account room may not be able to do it, let alone Chen Wanrong has not made a statement, so Qing'e can't make fun of it.
She still talked about virtue and only said "how to change" and did not say "you can change it", which was already very good.
Zheng Qing didn't believe this, blinking her eyes, looking at Chen Wanrong, smiling and not speaking. She was afraid that she would hurt Chen Wanrong's face, so she held it back.
Account books are the crystallization over thousands of years. Many people have worked hard to change, and it is normal for them to not believe it. However, Chen Wanrong is full of confidence and has never been an accountant. He is still familiar with the lending account books. When he goes to the finance office, he will see the accountants doing the accounts from time to time. Not all of them have been remembered, at least not much missed. He smiled and said, "I'll draw it for you."
Seeing his confident look, Qing'e couldn't help but be stunned. Zheng Qing's reaction was much faster, and Yan Xiaoyanyan urged: "Brother Chen, please draw it for me!"
He found a piece of charcoal and then a large piece of paper. Chen Wanrong drew it on the paper according to his memory. When he finished drawing it, the loan-based account book appeared on the paper.
Qing'e looked at the paper with her eyes blankly, not sure. Zheng Qing looked excited and commented: "Brother Chen, this account book is great, great! The accounts done in this way are clear and clear, which is really a good account book!"
Compared with modern accounts, ancient accounts can be said to be a flowing account. No matter how good it is to remember, it is very messy to look at it from a modern perspective. It takes time to check the accounts and more effort to record them.
Zheng Qing is a big expert, and she could see the benefits of this kind of account book at a glance and was extremely excited: "Brother Chen, if this account book is circulated, there will be many followers, and even the court may have to use your account book."
I can't control others, as long as I remember my account, it will be done. Chen Wanrong didn't have the idea of spreading it to the world, and smiled and said, "I can use it myself. As for other families, how can I control it."
"Brother Chen, I'll tell me the truth!" Zheng Qing looked at Chen Wanrong with admiration and said with great anticipation: "Brother Chen, can you use this account for us?"
She used it for her home, and Chen Wanrong had no reason to refuse this request: "Aren't mine all yours? If you like it, just use it."
Zheng Qing couldn't hear the implication. She was both joy and shy, and she couldn't help but hang her head. Qing'e really curled her lips, looking stingy.
"This account book is better, but there is still a shortcoming, which can easily cause changes to people." Chen Wanrong said a problem that has caused countless people to worry about for thousands of years.
There were no capital numbers in the Tang Dynasty, so it was too easy to change accounts using lowercase Chinese characters such as one, two, three, and four. It was too easy to change accounts. One character plus one horizontal means two, and one horizontal means three, or even five, six, and ten. Three can be changed to five, and they can be changed as they wish. From the court to the common people, they all suffer from accounts.
"You have a way?" Qing'e asked without thinking. It was really rare that she didn't say the word "smart person". This shows that she was convinced by Chen Wanrong once again.
What she was going to ask was exactly what Zheng Qing was going to ask. Zheng Qing looked at Chen Wanrong with a wonderful eye and said with great anticipation: "Brother Chen, this account is a great harm. If there is a way to control it, it will be a supreme merit."
This is the truth. If someone cannot change the account, it will definitely be a sensational thing. From the court to the ordinary people, it will benefit a lot.
Technically speaking, it is not difficult at all. A pen is enough. If you have some technical ink dots, even gods will not find out. This has greatly encouraged the trend of corruption. The annual tax revenue of the court has caused a lot of people to fall into the pockets of corrupt officials.
In order to plug this loophole, dynasties have thought of many ways but they are not available, which is a headache. However, Chen Wanrong didn't have this idea and smiled and said, "I don't think about the supreme merits anymore. I just want my account to be real and not to be modified! If I have no money, I can borrow it from me. If I need it, I can give it money, but I can't use fake accounts to fool me."
This is the voice of every boss. His subordinates need money in urgent need, so they can find a way to borrow as much as they should and donate as they should. There is nothing to say about this. No one can stand it by changing the accounts to deceive people.
Zheng Qing agreed very much: "Yes, but there is no way to stop it."
"It's not difficult to do it, you just need to change a few words." Chen Wanrong's words were enough to confuse the people who understand the most.
Zheng Qing asked in confusion: "Brother Chen, what words should I change?"
