Chapter 136 A Box of Accounts

The two people in the room had different thoughts for a while, and Bai Yizhang began to explain to Wang Xiao again.

Next, the remaining ten or so account books were all used to record expenses.

As promised, what about handing over the ‘assets’ to yourself?

Wang Xiao was a little in disbelief and said, "Why do you have so much expenses?"

"This is just part of what I have given you. Lu Cifu is an important minister of the country, and the people who work for him are equivalent to a small court." Bai Yizhang sighed.

"But why do you have so little money?" Wang Xiao turned over and murmured: "It's less than fifty thousand taels of silver."

You can be greedy as promised...

Bai Yizhang said: "Only fools keep cash in their hands. Of course money is used to make money. Aren't there shops, debts and shares here? You see there are two warehouses of grain here, which can be exchanged for cash when sold.

silver……"

Wang smiled and said, "You didn't take it privately, did you?"

Bai Yizhang blushed and said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about! I'm still under investigation, how dare I stay?"

But I was feeling proud in my heart - how dare I keep the money in the capital? Of course I have to send it to the south.

As he spoke, he turned around and took out another small wooden box from the bookshelf, saying, "Take these too."

"What's this?"

"The late emperor planned to expand the palace city, but His Majesty did not build it. He left a few warehouses with useless things, some wood, stones, etc. You can take them and sell them."

Wang Xiao was speechless.

No wonder Bai Yizhang asked his elder brother to take care of these things.

I thought I was here to get a lot of grain and sell it for money, but I didn't expect it was just a random stall.

How can I manage a large box of ledgers by myself?

He couldn't help but frown, looking at the boxes of account books in front of him in a daze.

"Uncle, I'm afraid I can't do these things."

Bai Yizhang said angrily: "We have agreed with Lu Cifu, can you still regret it? Do you want to die?"

"You made such a mess..."

"In this world, I handle my accounts most clearly!" Bai Yizhang shouted: "If you can't handle it, ask your eldest and second brothers to help you."

He didn't originally intend for Wang Xiao to do this.

It's just a matter of changing the method and letting Wang Zhen and Wang Zhu do it.

Wang Xiao then said: "That's not right. Your expenses are already greater than your income, and it's all because of your greed for money every year to balance it. Now that it's in my charge, I can't be greedy for money..."

"Greedy, greedy, greedy, you know how to be greedy at a young age. Does the court still have money to be greedy for?!" Bai Yizhang scolded with a righteous face: "I just let you run it because I can't bear to be greedy anymore, otherwise I will find someone to

What did you do!"

But he thought in his heart: You idiot, from now on the money I am greedy for will go into your own pocket...

----------------------------------------

Bai Yizhang, the left minister of the Ministry of Finance, is currently under investigation and does not need to go to court.

Qian Chengyun, the left minister of the Ministry of Justice, was not so lucky.

After working hard to get to court, he rushed to the Ministry of Justice to sit in court.

Today, someone came to visit him again.

Who asked him to carry money? Now he is a popular person in the eyes of the emperor.

The person who came was Wu Youcai from Qianhu, Taiping Department.

Wu Youcai was only a member of a thousand households, but he introduced another person for Qian Chengyun - Shen Xu, the commander of Zhengsipin Taiping Department.

Now the Taiping Department is about to be reorganized. Some people are frightened, but for others, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Wu Youcai wanted to be the governor of Beizhen, but Shen Xu wanted to be the commander of the Taiping Department.

A commander must be a direct descendant of the emperor, so if you want to be a commander, there are two ways to go - Wang Fang and Qian Chengyun.

The road to Wang Fang was too crowded, so Shen Xu came here...

The three of them talked for a while.

Qian Chengyun stroked his beard and laughed at himself: "Wei Qi just came to my place yesterday, and he died suddenly that night. Isn't Shen Qianshi afraid of getting into bad luck?"

Shen Xu smiled apologetically and said, "Master Qian, everything here is blessed, how can there be any bad luck?"

Call him Wei Qi, but he has something to talk about.

Shen Xu pondered and said: "There is a confidant in my humble position named Zhao Ping. He is a member of Qianhu under Nanzhen Governor Qiu Pengcheng. This Zhao Ping saw something very interesting last night. The reason is that Wang Xiao followed the governor. Wang Fang went to the Taiping Department to recognize someone..."

"...Zhao Ping was worried, so he turned back and happened to hear Wang Xiao teaming up with a woman to kill Wei Qi..."

"...The altar of gold was used by the Wang family to bribe Qiu Pengcheng. After Wei Qi died, Qiu Pengcheng fell into his trap, so he ordered Zhao Ping not to tell others..."

Qian Chengyun tapped his fingers lightly on the table.

He had suffered a loss in Wang Xiao's case, and at this moment he couldn't help but think about how to make a comeback through this matter.

It would be best if we could divert the trouble to the east...

----------------------------------------

The distance from Jiuxue Lane to Wenxian Street is not too far.

Qin Xiaozhu and Tang Qianqian visited the cloth store together again.

In the short time it took Huazhi to hitch the carriage, the two seemed to have become very good friends.

Seeing the carriage parked in front of the cloth shop, Tang Qianqian said: "I still have to go out to do some errands, so I'll say goodbye to my sister and invite her to play in my yard another day."

Qin Xiaozhu didn't plan to gamble today. He originally planned to go shopping with Tang Qianqian, but when he turned around, he saw Qin Xuance walking down the street carrying a big pig's trotter.

Only then did she remember that she had a younger brother. This younger brother had not returned home all night and had gone to who knows where.

Qin Xiaozhu had no choice but to say goodbye to Tang Qianqian, ran to Qin Xuance, and kicked him.

"It's only a thief. I haven't disciplined you for just one day..."

Tang Qianqian smiled faintly, got up and got into the carriage.

All the way to Xiaotan Coal Shop, she started her busy day.

"Shopkeeper Lu has been waiting for a long time. My husband has said that he is not afraid to tell you that the iron ore is in the Miyun area of ​​Changping Prefecture. It doesn't matter if your Lu family wants to leave us and go find it on your own, but we are by no means only capable of identifying the ore... "

"Of course we are sincere. We really can't survive in that area without your relationship with the Lu family. The next question is how to cooperate..."

After finally negotiating a few things with Lu Fangzhi, He Fengshou came over again.

However, He Fengshou brought two carts of things, saying that He Wan gave them to Wang Xiao.

"Our Ninth Young Master has something to do, and we need to go to sea temporarily. This is what Boss Wang said he wanted last time. Ninth Young Master said that it is not convenient for Boss Wang to go to the boat this time..."

He Fengshou was actually quite worried, but this was a private matter of the He family, and there was no need to tell his business partners.

After exchanging pleasantries, he asked about the Mentougou coal mine.

"Master Ninth has some concerns about the ancestral graves of the Qian family. Before leaving, he specifically asked me to pay attention to this matter."

Tang Qianqian told him about the process, and then said: "I also talked about this with my husband last night. Don't worry, when Mr. He comes back, I will definitely see the first batch of coal..."

She spoke and acted in an orderly manner, dismissed the Lu family and the He family, and asked Uncle Tang Wang to find a few stewards and give orders one by one.

"Go and send the news to Yaxing in the capital. Just say that Tang Zhongyuan's army has captured Tongguan, and I want to make the land price in the capital drop again..."

"We now need a large number of manpower, starting from those who can read and keep accounts, to those who can farm and weave..."

"Go and find out how many cloth factories there are in the capital, where the raw materials come from, and how much money the monthly sales can make..."
