Xiuse Farmhouse

Chapter 250 Chapter 251 Report ([-])

Now the crowd will not agree, if the miscalculation of one person's wages is accidental, then everyone's wages are wrong.Everyone was angry, and they took it to the accountant: "Mr. accountant, look, the mine did not do the right calculation for us. Is this trying to talk about our wages?"

The accountant frowned, looked at the paper in the hands of several people, and neither shook his head nor nodded: "Everyone should go to the supervisor for this matter. I am only an accountant, and I have no authority over this matter."

Looking for a manager?The third young master or the second young master?But these two people are not here now, it is possible that the two people have a guilty conscience, so they didn't come to the mine today, and some people started to complain.

Immediately, someone suggested that they should go to Guanshi Liu or Foreman Yang first.

A word awakened the dreamer, everyone turned around and looked around, and saw Baishou standing under a tree not far from the mine.

In fact, Baishou has been standing there watching from a distance since the wages were paid, and he has noticed the noise and discussions, including asking the accountant to re-account. His task today is to wait for these miners to come to him.

A group of people surrounded Baishou with wages and paper balls.

"Foreman Yang, isn't this salary right?"

"Yes, Foreman Yang, this is our hard-earned money. One person's miscalculation may be a coincidence, but why everyone's miscalculation, Foreman Yang, you have to stand up for us!"

Everyone said something to each other, after a while, Baishou raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, everyone looked at him, Liu Guanshi didn't know where he was, he was not in the mine at the moment.Baishou thought to himself, Xie Yi's guess was quite accurate, Manager Liu would not be in the mine when he paid wages today, it really is.

He looked at the crowd and said earnestly: "I don't know who else remembered the number by themselves?"

When I asked, many people below raised their hands.
Baishou showed a smile, counted the number of people, and then seriously said to everyone: "Everyone remember how many people there are this month, but you have to remember it firmly. I will immediately ask the second young master about this matter. As long as everyone The report is true, I believe the second young master will give everyone an explanation."

With Baishou's words, everyone shut up one after another. Everyone knew that Yang Baishou was a man of his word and would not say anything about miners. Then everyone put their notes in their pockets and went back to the mine keep working.

Mr. Accountant watched from the side and couldn't help nodding, Baishou's words were more effective than Liu Guanshi's words!
And Guanshi Liu, who was hiding in another place, first reported to Xie Xian after he learned that the miners were making a fuss because of the wrong wages. He rushed to the mine in a hurry, and when he arrived at the mine, all the workers had already dispersed.

Xie Xian had already thought up his words, but the strange thing was that Xie Yi didn't look for him.

Liu Guanshi's heart was also fluctuating, the more no one came to him, the more uneasy he felt.Just when he thought that Xie Yi would let this matter go unnoticed, one day shopkeeper suddenly found him.

"...He stole something from the second young master's house, and now he is detained, and he only needs to wait for the second young master to go back to deal with it. You have worked under the second young master for a long time, and you are also his father. You should be informed of this matter in advance. .”

Liu Guanshi's face was pale.

Shopkeeper Yu was talking about his youngest son. He has three sons. The eldest and the second are working in Xie's family, but they are both second and third-class. After being transferred to the mine, he gained some sympathy, so he begged shopkeeper Yu to intercede in front of Xie Yi, and sent his youngest son to work under Xie Yi. Yi's personal servant.

During the New Year's Eve, his youngest son went home and complained a lot. Xie Yi spent more time going out than at home throughout the year, but he never brought Guanshi Liu's youngest son with him. his signs.

He was just an inconspicuous servant in the mansion, how could he be promoted as a personal servant by Xie Yi like this.Instead, when Xie Xian came home for New Year's Eve, he met that kid once or twice, and even praised him for his ability.

This year, a loyal entourage of Xie Xian urged Guanshi Liu's son to simply work by Xie Xian's side and work hard to ensure that he would be more promising than being by Xie Yi's side. The steward wrote a letter.

Later, Guanshi Liu and Xie Xian reconciled with the smuggling of coal, and under Xie Xian's rhetoric, Guanshi Liu voted for Xie Xian out of necessity and willingness.

Now that his youngest son was arrested, Liu Guanshi suddenly felt desperate. This must be because Xie Yi knew about his betrayal, so it was not a matter of saying that Xie Yi wanted to deal with his son as a trick for his son.

But this youngest son is Guanshi Liu's most beloved son. He looked at shopkeeper Yu with a pale face, and knelt down in front of shopkeeper Yu with a plop, begging: "Treasurer Yu, please help me talk to the second young master."

Shopkeeper Yu said indifferently: "I can't help you with this, you know the second young master's temper best."

Liu Guanshi's face was ashen: "If I help the second young master, can he spare my boy's life?"

Shopkeeper Yu snorted coldly: "Steward Liu, I think you are getting more and more confused when you are the steward of this mine. How dare you threaten the second young master with something."

Liu Guanshi tremblingly said: "How dare I threaten the second young master."

"However..." Shopkeeper Yu paused: "But the second young master is a soft-hearted person. If you put your heart and soul into doing things for him, he will naturally give you some sympathy. If you don't want face, you can't blame anyone."

Guanshi Liu wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeves, showing a look of desperation: "As long as the second young master can spare me that kid, he will do whatever he wants with me. Also, please tell the second young master, shopkeeper Yu, that I have something important to report! "

*****
Xie Yi found Xie Xian the next day.

"Now I have made arrangements for the mine. If the third brother has nothing to do, he can go back to Xie's house first."

The news came suddenly, Xie Xian was stunned on the spot, he came back to his senses for a while, and said: "I'm fine, second brother has something to order, I'm not as shrewd as you in business, but I'm still very familiar with the mine in the past six months, This little matter in the mine is not difficult for me, and it is my honor to help my second brother share his worries, and I also hope to learn more from my second brother."

Xie Yi smiled, with a gloomy expression on his face: "That's right, the second brother has already seen the ability of the third brother. I underestimated you before, so my father must be very happy to know that you have such ability, but I have already seen you in the mine." There are arrangements, don’t worry, someone will manage it when the time comes.”

Xie Xianhu looked at Xie Yi suspiciously, ignored what Xie Yi said, and said with a smile: "Compared to the second brother, I have to learn more." Then there was a flash of caution in his expression: "I don't know if the younger brother did it If it’s not good, second brother, you can just bring it up, and younger brother will definitely improve it.”

Hearing this, Xie Yi showed a half-smile expression, and waved his hands at him: "No, third brother, you are too talented to be here. It's not good to be so overqualified. Besides, I can't afford to use my brother. I only have one head."

Xie Xian was taken aback, his face straightened, and he looked a little angrily: "I don't know what the second brother means? My father asked me to come out and learn business with you. If there is something wrong, you can point it out in front of your father." It’s okay to come, why send me back to Xie’s family without knowing why.”

Xie Yi faded away the smile on his face, and said lightly: "Okay, if you don't want to go back to Xie's house, just wait for father to call you back in person. I'll save trouble!"

Xie Xian's expression turned cold suddenly: "Second brother, even though you are a concubine and I am a concubine, I respect you as a brother, so don't deceive others too much."

Xie Yi laughed loudly, and sneered at the corner of his mouth: "It's best if you don't respect me, for what you did, don't let the whole Xie family be implicated by you, you don't want to give you face, then don't blame me for not being a brother... It’s alright to lie to others, to help others, and you still dare to smuggle coal... The palace really knows, and when I see it, my father will personally send you, his beloved son, to be dealt with... "

Xie Yi's words shocked Xie Xian, he knew that the palace was not easy to mess with, but he couldn't understand what he did was very secretive, how did Xie Yi know about it?Moreover, even the Prince's Mansion received the news, thinking of Master Xie's usual principles, Xie Xian broke into a cold sweat.After thinking for a while, Xie Xian thought about the matter for a while, and he was still sure that he could not find any clues except that Xie Yi might have found some problems in the account. He collected himself and said, "I don't know. I know what the second brother means."

Xie Yi rubbed his swollen brows. He had repeatedly rejected his father's request. He didn't want Xie Xian to follow him because he knew his temperament. Really study business hard, I didn't expect...

Thinking of this, Xie Yi threw the problematic account books he sorted out in front of Xie Xian, and said coldly: "Okay, I will let you understand today. There are problems with these books, together with the above Yue, these accounts are all in your hands, how do you explain?"

Xie Xian was startled, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "Second brother, this is ridiculous. Your accountant made the bill. I just follow the rules to see it. Besides, I have never done business, so even if he made a fake Account, I don't see it is normal, if you want to pursue responsibility, you have found the wrong person."

Xie Xian could still push the responsibility to his accountant by talking nonsense.

Xie Yi smiled coldly, and said: "Of course I will inquire about my accountant, but you should hide the person who works for you. Besides, third brother, why didn't you find out who is missing from the mine today? For example Guan Liu?"

Xie Xian was obviously stunned, and only then realized that he hadn't seen Guanshi Liu since he arrived at the mine today, and his heart that was still firm at this moment couldn't help but panic, and his heart turned a thousand times.

Guanshi Liu knew about his smuggling of coal. Could it be that he has been detained at this time?How did Xie Xian know that Liu Guanshi actually confessed to Xie Yi on his own initiative.

But despite this, Xie Xian quickly calmed down, because although Guanshi Liu knew about his smuggling of coal, he didn't know how much, and he was not responsible for the account. The coal was transported by his cronies. After all, it was impossible for Xie Yi to find any evidence.

Xie Xian raised his head and looked at Xie Yi with a smile: "Second brother, don't tell me, I really didn't see Guanshi Liu today, um, maybe he did something wrong, knowing that second brother you will come to the mine today, so I didn't dare to come I knew that Manager Liu was useless, so the second brother took a fancy to him and transferred him to the mine. If there is something going on in the mine, how should the second brother explain to his father?"

Xie Yi laughed back angrily, it was rare for Xie Xian to still be in the mood to frame him at this time, and said lightly: "Guan Liu has a son who committed a crime, and he has been detained by me..." Glancing at him, it was obvious that Xie Yi hadn't recovered yet. Xian, continued: "Although there is no clue in the account book last month, many miners have recorded the daily amount of coal by themselves, and although the accounts on the mountain and the mountain in the past few months are the same, it is necessary to It is very simple to find out one or two, my accountant is old, but he is very careful in his work, he has a good habit, no matter what account he does, he likes to make an extra copy."
