Originally, Ye Ningyu's body was not weak, but she was injured these days, which delayed her practice. The last time she went to Xuanyuan Inn, if it weren't for Bai Chengzhi, she would have really struggled. Thinking of the man in white, Ye Ningyu couldn't help but sigh,

That person's lightness skills really impressed her. Ever since he was a child, Ye Ningyu has enjoyed a certain reputation in the capital city. Especially after he went to the front line with his father, the eldest girl of the Ye family seemed to have become a legend among everyone. But these,

None of it is an excuse for her to stagnate. There are too many things she has to do. If she doesn't get stronger, she will become a loser and pay a heavy price like she did in her last life. From now on, she must always push herself. General Qinglian

She brought the spear over, and Ye Ningyu took it and stroked it carefully. It was a two-meter-long white tassel spear. The barrel was made of dark iron and the head was tempered with white steel. It weighed a hundred kilograms.

.This is a weapon that her grandfather seized from the enemy war god and kept it in the Ye family's arsenal for decades. Ye Ningyu took up a weapon to practice martial arts for the first time when she was a child, and her grandfather gave this gun to her. "Ayu, no matter what happens on the battlefield,

Both men and women are warriors. My grandfather hopes that you will cherish your family and country in the future and not despise yourself as a woman. No matter where your ambition is in the future, you can be invincible and invincible with your unswerving determination."

Grandfather's words resounded in her ears again. Ye Ningyu clenched the silver gun and swung it suddenly. The wind whistled, and the thin figure danced around the courtyard with the silver gun. The usually peaceful Qiushui courtyard suddenly had a hint of something new.

There was a solemn atmosphere. A person walked into the courtyard. Ye Ningyu's eyes moved slightly, and she jumped up and flew towards the person. Butler Fang's footsteps paused, and Ye Ningyu's gun tip landed between Butler Fang's eyebrows.

Less than a foot away. "Big...big girl."

Butler Fang is a soldier who has been in battle, and he has also seen the eldest girl go into battle with this gun. He just didn't expect that the eldest girl would be practicing in the hospital today. After all, she still had injuries on her waist, and the old miracle doctor An asked her to

After two months of rest, it's only been more than a month... "Uncle Fang."

Ye Ningyu put away the gun, took the handkerchief handed over by Qinglian and wiped her face. She had been practicing for an hour, and her face and body were wet with sweat. Butler Fang came back to her senses and bowed, "

Lao Lin is here."

Ye Ningyu nodded, "Ask Uncle Lin to wait for me in the side hall."

After that, Ye Ningyu went back to the house and changed her clothes before going to the side hall. Shopkeeper Lin, dressed in black and wearing a bamboo hat, was drinking tea in the side hall. When he saw Ye Ningyu, he stood up and saluted. "Miss.

"

Ye Ningyu motioned for him to sit down, "No one will follow."

Shopkeeper Lin still has some confidence, "Don't worry, big girl, no one will notice."

Shopkeeper Lin rarely came to the house since he took care of Hemingxuan. He sent other people to deliver the monthly account books. The Ye family has never announced their relationship with Hemingxuan to the outside world. Even Ye Yonghe and his brothers

No one knows. Unless absolutely necessary, Ye Ningyu will not expose this relationship. Ye Ningyu sat down, took a box, and took out a few red deeds from it, "Uncle Lin, take a look at these things first."

Shopkeeper Lin took the red deed and looked through it. At first, he took a few glances and saw that they were all red deeds from some shops, including a grain shop, a medicine shop, a clothing shop, and a restaurant. The red deeds were genuine, and these shops were also real.

In fact, shopkeeper Lin is basically familiar with the shop in Dadu, so there is no problem. But the eldest girl will not call him to the house to look at these things for no reason, so shopkeeper Lin carefully checked them a second time. Just when he looked at these red

After comparing the deeds repeatedly, a problem was discovered. "Strange..." Shopkeeper Lin picked up a few account books on the side and looked at them. They were basically the account books of these shops. After reading the account books, Shopkeeper Lin was basically convinced.

Something. "What did Uncle Lin discover?"

Shopkeeper Lin frowned, "These red deeds were purchased in March of the 21st year of Yuanqing, but I remember that these shops were all opened in winter."

The reason why shopkeeper Lin remembers it so clearly is because Hemingxuan was also opened in the winter of the 21st year of Yuanqing. He still has memories of the newly opened shops in the capital city at that time. Shopkeeper Lin didn't finish what he said, but Ye

But Ning Yu understood what it meant. In other words, the owner of the shop bought the shop in the spring and waited until winter to open it. The shop remained empty for eight or nine months. It's just a strange situation for a shop.

Yes, these are all. These shops are all on Zhengxing Street, which is where shopkeeper Lin is planning to open a Hemingxuan branch. Who would have bought so many shops on the same street five years ago and had so much time?

It's been a long time since it opened? What did Dong Japing spend the money on for nothing? "And this account book..." Shopkeeper Lin took out the account book of one of the restaurants and pointed out a few places to Ye Ningyu. He only discovered this after looking at it several times.

"These numbers look okay at first glance, but I always feel they are a little too deliberate."

Ye Ningyu actually discovered that if she hadn't read Hemingxuan's account books every year and had a certain understanding of restaurant management, she wouldn't have noticed the problems at all. For example, in the July accounting records in the account books, the amount of ingredients used

The cost is 2,000 taels, the labor cost is 300 taels, the material subsidy is 200 taels, the other expenses are 200 taels, the operating income is 20,000 taels, and the net profit in July is 16,400 taels. This restaurant’s

Shopkeeper Lin knows that although the scale is not as big as Hemingxuan, it is not much smaller, so many of the accounts of the two restaurants can be compared. Hemingxuan spends at least 5,000 taels per month on food materials and at least 5,000 taels on manpower.

One thousand taels. The costs in other aspects are also higher. Shopkeeper Lin evaluated the monthly costs based on the scale of the restaurant, and always felt that it was more than the figures on the account book. "Miss, I don't know about the others.

I dare say, but I estimate that the cost of ingredients in this restaurant will not be less than 3,000 taels per month."

Ye Ningyu looked at the account book and realized. Sure enough, they deliberately lowered the cost in the account book. This is a fake account book. Fake account books are not a secret. Many selfish shopkeepers will make several accounts to increase costs.

, compressing income in order to put a sum of money into his own pocket without telling the employer. But this account book actually reduced the cost, which is puzzling. Last night, Ye Ningyu discovered two questions about the account book and the time of purchasing the red deed.

, but she didn’t know that these shops were opened so long after Hongqi purchased them. Since then, there have been more doubts. Why did the second uncle give these weird shops to him? Ye Ningyu

I decided to have someone check it out. "Why does the big girl have these red deeds?"

Shopkeeper Lin asked. "My second uncle bought it as a gift for me."

Ye Ningyu didn't hide anything. Although shopkeeper Lin also had questions, since the eldest girl only talked about this, he wouldn't ask too much. "In the past few days, I have been preparing for the new business that the eldest girl mentioned, the silk and Hemingxuan shops.

Everything is ready. But... the tea shop is in some trouble, I'm afraid we have to wait a few more days."
