Chapter 156 Finding Vulnerabilities
The noon sun was the hottest time, and Pei Xingjia and Lin's were caught. Pei Xiangxiang was very happy, in a good mood, and would not be irritable because of the hot weather. He cut a piece of watermelon and washed a few. The tomatoes sat in the shop and began to eat slowly.

Pei Yongping went to the shop first, saw Pei Xiangxiang was there, glanced around the room, and said in surprise, "Hey, isn't your uncle here? He went out earlier than me."

Pei Xiangxiang pretended to know nothing, and replied, "I don't know either. When I got to the shop, the door was closed. I don't know where Uncle went."

"Oh, maybe something has delayed it." Pei Yongping didn't think about anything else, he didn't care at all, and then began to tidy up the shelves in the shop.

However, when Pei Yongping saw a lot of open boxes in the house, and they had obviously been turned over, his heart sank, and he pointed to the boxes and said to Pei Xiangxiang, "Xiangxiang, come and see why this box has been opened and has been tampered with." But, have there been thieves, it wasn't like this when we went home for lunch."

Pei Yongping had to check the inventory in the shop every day, so he was naturally very clear about the arrangement of the boxes. When he suddenly saw the signs of being slightly messy and obviously being touched by someone, he felt a little panicked in his heart.

Pei Xiangxiang raised his brows slightly, and explained in a calm manner, "I opened this box, but whether the contents in this box have been touched or not, we have to wait for the uncle to come, and we will know after checking with the account book."

Hearing what Pei Xiangxiang said, Pei Yongping nodded, and then his panic gradually calmed down, thinking that he must have thought too much, if a thief really came, all the things in the shop would be stolen.

How many fruits and vegetables were picked from the Su family's [-] mu of land and sent to the shop, and how much was sold, is recorded every day, but Pei Xiangxiang knows that Pei Xing's family has already colluded with the stewards in charge of picking and transporting, so it must have been done in the account book Of course, Pei Xiangxiang also firmly believes that she can find the loopholes in the ledger, but she does not believe that Pei Xingjia can be foolproof.

When Pei Xing's family returned to the shop again, he saw that Pei Xiangxiang and Pei Yongping were there, he was just slightly taken aback, and then, as usual, seeing Pei Yongping sorting out the shelves, he offered to help, as if the things he planned with Lin hadn't Same happened.

"Uncle, let's check the account books first, and calculate the profit for this month. In addition, we should also calculate the wages for uncle." Pei Xiangxiang said it naturally. Pei Xing's family was a little nervous at first, but seeing the expression on Pei Xiangxiang's face, there was no abnormality. , He immediately calmed down and replied, "Okay, but there are a lot of small orders this month, and I guess it will take a lot of trouble to calculate."

"It's okay, let's count slowly."

There are five ledgers in total, one is for relatively large orders, one is for relatively small ones, the other is for credit transactions without cash payments, and the other is for fruits and vegetables picked from the field and transported to the shop every day The amount and the money spent every day, including some expenses for hiring long-term and short-term workers.

Pei Xing's family held the abacus and showed it to Pei Xiangxiang. Pei Xiangxiang watched the beads of the abacus moving up and down quickly, and his eyes were dazzled after watching it for a long time.

Pei Xiangxiang has always been thankful that the time interval between each reconciliation is not long. Therefore, without calculators and computers, these data can be calculated manually. Therefore, before Pei Xing's family finished the calculation, Pei Xiangxiang said, "Uncle, no need Let me see, I will check it myself, if there is any problem with the data, I will ask uncle again."

Hearing what Pei Xiangxiang said, Pei Xingjia nodded. He thought that Pei Xiangxiang was not his opponent, and he didn't pay attention to the nine-year-old Pei Xiangxiang at all. In his opinion, Pei Xiangxiang was really smart and could read, but when he thought of Before, I had carefully made the account book, but Pei Xiangxiang didn't find any problems in it, so I thought Pei Xiangxiang didn't know how to count.

Seeing Pei Xiangxiang writing and drawing on the paper with charcoal strips burned from willow sticks, a smile appeared on the corner of Pei Xingjia's mouth, thinking that a child is a child, no matter how good he is, he just wants to do superficial skills and express himself How powerful it is, I didn't realize that Pei Xiangxiang was really counting, not just for him to see.

Maybe Pei Xiangxiang wanted to thank Pei Xingjia for underestimating the enemy. After she went through three ledgers in a row, she finally found Pei Xingjia's loopholes, which began to be misaligned in the expenditure item.

"Uncle, what's the matter with the data here? On the [-]th, a total of [-] catties of Fugui Ruyi fruits, [-] catties of peppers and [-] catties of strawberries were paid by the long-term workers on the [-]th, but they can be delivered to the shop here. Eighty catties of Ruyi fruit, one hundred catties of peppers and forty catties of strawberries were missing."

As soon as Pei Xiangxiang said this, Pei Xingjia's face changed, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, but he pretended to be calm and said, "Bring it to me to see, there should be no problem."

Seeing Pei Xing's family pretending, Pei Xiangxiang couldn't help laughing in her heart, but she didn't show it. Instead, she handed the account book to Pei Xing's family seriously, and said, "Well, uncle, let's see if there is anything missing, and I forgot to write it down. Yes, I remember that the amount used to match.”

Pei Xiangxiang was a little thankful that when he hired long-term workers, he didn't calculate wages by day, but by weight. In this way, when checking the wages of long-term workers, he could also calculate the harvest of vegetables and fruits by the way, so as to avoid people's tampering in the middle. The original idea would really catch Pei Xing's family's loopholes.

Pei Xingjia stared at the account book for a long time, a layer of fine sweat appeared on his forehead, and he was a little annoyed that he hadn't done this account properly, and let Pei Xiangxiang see the problem. Of course, he was very surprised at Pei Xiangxiang How did she find out the problem? She doesn't even know how to use an abacus. How did she calculate those data?

"Uncle, is it very hot? I see that you are sweating so much. How about I fan you? I'm not in a hurry. Let's take our time." Pei Xiangxiang put on a very concerned look. It made Pei Xing's family doubt whether Pei Xiangxiang was looking for his own loopholes on purpose, or if he really discovered it by accident.

"It's okay, it's just too hot." Pei Xingjia hurriedly wiped the sweat off his face with his sleeve, and after looking through the ledger for a long time, he suddenly smiled and said, "Look at my memory, I forgot I wrote that on the [-]th, when the Fugui Ruyi fruit, strawberries and peppers were transported back from the field, the ox cart overturned, and the cows behind trampled the Fugui Ruyi fruit, strawberries and peppers on the ground. The steward can testify."

Steward Wang is the steward arranged by Su Yunhan, and he is also the person that Pei Xing's family has bribed. Pei Xiangxiang was looking for an opportunity to confront that steward Wang and Pei Xing's family. Now that Pei Xing's family mentioned it, Pei Xiangxiang took advantage of the opportunity and said, "Well, let me ask Ask Guan Wang, this amount is not small, you have to ask clearly."

When Pei Xiangxiang said this, a smile flashed in his eyes, and Pei Xingjia suddenly felt that he seemed to have fallen into some kind of trap, but unfortunately it was too late when he found out.
