Xiuse Farmhouse

Chapter 243 Xie Yilai
At this time, Shopkeeper Yu, who had not yet left the courtyard, came back in a hurry, and said to Wanwan in a low voice: "Don't thank the third in front of the second young master in the future, I will give you an explanation for this matter, and even the wheat straw girl Same. The second young master is very angry now!" Before leaving, he lowered his voice and said: "The second young master broke Xie San's leg!"

Wanwan stood there for a while before recovering.

It's only natural for Xie Yi to be angry, he personally allowed Xie San to go to the mine, but behind his back he helped Xie Xian with his work, and now he did such a shameful and embarrassing thing, it was a slap in the face of Xie Yi, so he was angry, He was angry, maybe Xie San's broken leg was just the beginning.

Thinking of this, Wanwan's mood suddenly soared!

On the other side, Xie Xian was talking to Yang Feng at the mine, when he saw his valet running up panting.

"Master, master, the second young master is here."

Xie Xian glanced down the mountain and signaled Yang Feng to do his job. As soon as Yang Feng left, Xie Yi came up.

Xie Xian immediately greeted him with a smile: "Why did the second brother come here today, and didn't notify the younger brother in advance, so that I can send someone to pick you up."

Xie Yi smiled slightly: "Nothing." Glancing at the orderly mine, he said, "Busy?"

Xie Xian said earnestly: "Second brother, you hand over this mine to me, of course I have to use some snacks." Then he took the initiative to introduce the current situation of the coal mine to Xie Yi: "...so, the amount of coal this year will only Getting better and better."

Xie Yi nodded: "That's good. In the future, the mine will ask you to spend more time."

Xie Xian was overjoyed, and said: "Second brother, don't worry."

Then I heard Xie Yi say: "You also know that it's not easy for the Xie family to get this mine, and nothing can happen to this mine, especially the coal must be carefully handled to prevent someone from smuggling it out. The man in the capital is not good What a mess, our accounts are all clear, and he can't rub a little sand in his eyes."

Xie Xian's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately responded respectfully: "Second Brother, don't worry, nothing will happen to me in the mine."

"Okay, I have to rush to the northwest, and I have to leave in two days." After a pause, he said, "I heard that you also set up a bookkeeper at the foot of the mountain?"

"Yes, there will be one person at the top and bottom, so that it will be easier to reconcile accounts." Xie Xian said.

Xie Yi nodded in satisfaction: "That's a good idea. However, I didn't have time to come here at the end of last year. Now you ask someone to bring up the account book and let me have a look."

Xie Xian was taken aback, and hesitated, "Why don't you wait for two days? Because I just came to the mine, and I haven't checked the accounts for the New Year's Eve. Why don't I sort out the accounts and send them to you personally when the time comes?" past?"

"That's it..." Xie Yi thought for a while, and could only say: "You don't need to send it. If that's the case, then I'll come and see it next time. There is one more thing, I promoted Yang Baishou to be the foreman." Looking at Guanshi Liu next to him, he said: "In the future, if there is anything he doesn't understand, you should teach him more, and if you have anything to do, come to me directly."

Hearing Xie Yi's words, Xie Xian lost the joy that had just been born in his heart, and said to Xie Yi with a smile on his face: "Brother Baishou is good, and he is very down-to-earth."

Xie Yi walked around the mine, looked down the mountain, and then left.

As soon as Xie Yi left, Xie Xian found Liu Jizhang: "How do you see it?"

Liu Jizhang clapped his hands and said: "Back to the third young master, I have read it carefully. The account book is indeed different from what we remember. Those few transactions are recorded. Do you want me to change this account?"

Xie Xian waved his hand: "No, what should I change?" Then he paused again and looked suspiciously at Bookkeeper Liu: "Can you make sure that he can't see it by copying that account?"

Liu Jizhang smiled complacently: "Third Young Master, don't worry, I used to be a well-known copy master in the capital. I don't have to pass on all of them, but there are seven or eight. Guaranteed that even I can't tell the difference in the account book. .”

Xie Xian smiled with satisfaction: "Since this is the case, that's fine. You can write the accounts truthfully for the past few days. Remember to make a new copy of the accounts in hand for future use."

Liu Jizhang knew it well, knowing that Xie Xian might have a few more large coal shipments, he took out an account book and handed it to Xie Xian, and said in a low voice: "This is the account book in the accounting room, third young master, you think it should be How to do?"

Xie Xian took the account book, and then picked up the third account book that Liu kept as a backup. After comparing the two accounts, the notes were exactly the same, so he returned the spare copy to Liu, and Xie Xian handed over the account book in the accounting office. took away.

Back at the inn, Xie Xian immediately bolted the door, lit the ledger and threw it into the basin, and only after the whole ledger was reduced to ashes did he show a relaxed smile.

There is no original account in the accounting room, and now he has a fake account made by Liu Jizhang. Even if the incident is revealed in the future, there is no evidence.

Xie Xian laughed, thinking that the coal smuggled out in exchange for piles of silver bills these few times was more than his monthly bills in ten years in the mansion.He made up his mind to take advantage of Xie Yi's trip to the Northwest to make another big move.

Although he is loved by the old man in Xie's mansion, he is a concubine after all, and his mother is just a concubine. After all, if his father really loves his mother, he will hand over the business of Xie's family to him, but Xie Yi is better than Xie Yi. When he was two years younger, he had already gone out to take care of the Xie family's business.After all, there is a difference between concubine and concubine, Xie Xian has to plan for his future.

Guanshi Liu could hear Xie Yi and Xie Xian's conversation clearly, and he was always uneasy these days.

Xie Yi wants to check the account. There is a problem with the account. Xie Xian needs to check it first. This is not a problem, but Xie Yi and Xie Xian both returned to Xie's house for the New Year's Eve. , Xie Xian didn't tell Xie Yi in advance, but had to wait until Xie Yi came to the mine in person.

On the surface, it didn't seem to be a big problem, but Liu Guanshi always felt a little uneasy when he thought of the coal that Xie Xian had transported away privately. Except for the first time he knew that there were five trucks, he didn't know what happened to Xie Xian the next few times. How much coal was shipped.

He wondered whether Xie Yi knew about this matter or not, if he didn't know, then this matter would be serious.

After thinking for a while, Guanshi Liu decided to test Xie Xian's tone.

"...Although the output of coal is getting better and better, but they always ask for coal like this, isn't it a bit inappropriate, do you want to report this matter to the second young master?"

Xie Xian glanced at him coldly: "I still need you to teach me what to do?"

Liu Guanshi was stunned, and hurriedly bowed his head to say that he didn't dare.

Xie Xian breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "You don't need to tell the second brother about this, I will tell him myself. You just need to do your own thing well every day. These things are not something you can handle alone."

Liu Guanshi's heart was shocked, some couldn't believe it, and some doubts: "This matter, this matter..."

"That's right." Xie Xian looked at him and said lightly. At this time, he no longer had the need to hide things from Guan Liu: "The other party is not a close friend of the Xie family, but a friend of mine in business. The coal I transported away It doesn’t hurt the Xie family, but it’s a great opportunity for us, and you won’t suffer from Guanshi Liu.”

Liu Guanshi couldn't hide the shock on his face. He had doubted whether this was Xie Xian's idea at the beginning, but it turned out to be true.No wonder Xie Xian gave him a whole 50 taels of silver when he came back the first time, and then he would bring back different rare things every time, or give him the silver directly.He also thought about not wanting it, but there are dozens or even hundreds of taels of silver in vain, and he can get so much without doing anything. Who wouldn't be tempted?
If I tell Xie Yi now, is there still time?

As if he knew what Guanshi Liu was thinking, Xie Xian sneered: "Guanshi Liu, I advise you to think carefully about this matter. My second brother is a stern and selfless master. He hates people doing such stealthy things the most. If he Knowing that you smuggled coal out for me behind his back, you have repeated it over and over again, do you think he can spare you?"

Guanshi Liu felt cold, and said tremblingly, "Third Young Master, I didn't know beforehand that it was you..."

"I told you to do this, didn't I?" Xie Xian interrupted him, and then continued: "Even if you didn't do it willingly, in my second brother's heart, you are already on my side."

What Xie Xian said made Guanshi Liu feel cold. He knew that Xie Xian's words made sense, but he still had a fluke attitude in his heart. But on the other hand, he was afraid that Xie Yi would really deal with him.

What happened to Xie San was already an omen. Xie Yi broke Xie San's leg as soon as he came. Useful.

The sense of crisis in his heart suddenly increased, and a voice once again urged him to confess and be lenient.

But when he thought about the current affluent life of his family, if something happened to him, what would happen to the whole family, Liu Guanshi became hesitant.

Xie Xian didn't want to do the trick of knocking three shocking tigers, Guan Liu didn't listen to things, he had a lot of ways to make him obedient, without Xie San, some things were not as convenient as before, although Yang Feng was promoted to be a steward, but After all, he was a little timid in doing things, and he didn't have any ideas.But for the present plan, it is best to use him.

So he called Yang Feng and gave some instructions, but Yang Feng didn't understand: "Can't the second young master know about this?"

Xie Xian glanced at him, and said calmly: "Do you know what is the most important thing to get promoted and get rich?"

Yang Feng shook his head.

"Ask less and do more."

Yang Feng was stunned, feeling a little uncomfortable, thinking that there were still many things he needed to ask Xie Xian, so he obediently agreed.

Xie Xian was still a little worried, if he said who in the mine was most likely to tip off Xie Yi, he thought it should be Baishou.But now that Xie Yi has promoted Baishou to foreman, he can't resign Baishou, what if Baishou finds out while transporting coal at night?
After much deliberation, Xie Xian had an idea in his mind, and asked Yang Feng to give such instructions for a while.

Yang Feng was surprised: "Isn't this already over?"

Xie Xian smiled slightly: "Whoever said it was over, it was only temporary at the beginning. I mainly want to divert their attention now."

Yang Feng was still a little hesitant: "You probably won't do anything to him, right?"

"Don't worry about this, I said it just to teach a small lesson and divert Yang Baishou's attention." After a pause, Xie Xian smiled sinisterly: "Sooner or later, I will have to explain this matter, if you don't do this, Is it possible to expose this matter, you still have a family, are you not worried?"

Yang Feng was shocked all over, his face was pale, his speech was not as good as usual, and he stammered: "Third Young Master, I don't know what you mean."
