Chapter 124: The truth
Now leave the store to Xu Shouye.
Xu Shouye is the owner of the bookstore.
So what should Xu Shouye do?
It’s not easy to take care of the father anymore.
So Xu Liu has been a little nervous these past few days.
But I saw that he only brought in Zhang Luo, a Confucian scholar.
The worries in my heart disappeared.
The bookseller's accounts are at least several years old.
You have to find out,
There are dozens of people who can't figure it out.
Xu Liu saw Zhang Luo looking bookish.
I think Xu Shouye brought a friend to buy books.
Can a scholar still check the accounts?
Xu Liu felt relieved.
Let the waiter serve a cup of jasmine tea.
It seems that Xu Shouye is coming this time.
Just taking it for a walk.
He will leave after a while.
Zhang Luo took a sip of jasmine tea.
I can't taste much of the flavor.
Xu Shouye sat down for a while.
Had a little family dinner with Xu Lao.
I still haven’t forgotten the purpose of my trip.
He put away his smile and said:
"Shopkeeper Xu, please close the bookstore now."
"Take out all the account books in the shop."
"I want to check the accounts now."
If it were Xu Shouye's father.
Maybe you have to speak a little crookedly.
But Xu Shouye didn't have that much thought.
Let me tell you directly and straightforwardly.
The young master wants to check the accounts.
Xu Liu was not too surprised.
He had already prepared for this in his heart.
He had prepared several additional accounts three years ago.
For the sake of heaven.
Someone is coming to check his account.
Hear what Xu Shouye said.
Immediately ask the clerk to prepare the accounts for the past few years.
Bring them all out.
Accounting methods during the Jiajing period.
Or the four-pillar method.
It's included.
Old accounts, new accounts, expenses and remaining four pieces.
There are many kinds of books in the bookstore.
Every book needs to be accounted for once.
The guy has been lucky for three times.
Only then were all the ledgers taken out.
Account books filled with words.
Seeing this, Xu Shouye covered his head.
He looked at Zhang Luo and asked for help with his eyes.
Zhang Luo walked over and picked up a ledger.
Activate accounting skills.
It didn't take long for Zhang Luo to discover the problem inside.
Xu stayed while doing accounting.
Put books of the same type.
It was divided several times.
Turn the already complicated ledger into a new one.
It became more chaotic.
How can a normal person be so careless and look for trouble?
The problem here is not small.
Of course it is abnormal if there is no problem.
In a bookstore in a shopping mall.
Just relying on the young men who bought novels just now.
The income is already more than ten taels.
How is it possible that the profit is only twenty-five taels a year?
That is to say, Xujia has many shops.
Don't worry about spending money.
Only then will he be treated as a fool by Shopkeeper Xu.
Zhang Luo's accounting skill level is not high.
Just talking about accounting.
Zhang Luo's technique is definitely harmonious.
An old fake accountant like Xu Liu cannot compare.
But Zhang Luo also has statistical skills.
Zhang Luo turned on the system.
Jump directly into the ocean of knowledge.
Start looking for accounting-related knowledge.
Zhang Luo asked Xu Shouye for banknotes.
Use knowledge of statistics.
Do the math on paper.
It didn't take long for him to leave the bookstore.
The amount of books under his body.
Comparison found.
Many of the numbers don't add up.
Zhang Luo pointed out the types of books in question.
Then he looked at the shop assistant and said:
"These are the categories I wrote on the paper."
"Find it for me."
The clerk looked at what Zhang Luo had written.
His face suddenly turned bad.
Then he handed the note to Shopkeeper Xu.
Shopkeeper Xu also looked at Zhang Luo in shock.
His face was extremely ugly.
Xu Shouye looked at this wooden eye.
He just hasn't read the book.
I also know that Zhang Luo has grasped the problem.
"What's wrong, Shopkeeper Xu?"
"Brother Zhang Luo asked you to get the book."
"Go quickly."
Shopkeeper Xu wiped his forehead.
What is the origin of the scholar Xu Shouye brought?
Half a stick of incense time.
You can see that there is something fishy in the ledger.
To say that Xu Liu's ability is not that great.
Take the extra money you got.
Put it in a book that hasn't been sold yet.
Relying on books that don’t exist.
Take money into your pocket.
Many books are not available here.
Just look at the ledger.
Xu Liu took notes.
There is also complete purchase information.
It is difficult for ordinary people to see the problem.
In a bookstore, there are many unsold used books.
He has this way of surviving.
Want to create problems.
It does require a lot of manpower and time.
Even those who are proficient in accounting skills.
I can't see anything wrong in a short period of time.
But this Luo is just checking the accounts.
I scribbled on the paper for a while.
I found all the problematic books among them.
Xu Shouye also urged him to take out the book.
Books that don't exist.
How can it be taken out?
The guy is already covered in sweat.
Xu Liu made false accounts.
This guy must have been involved.
And he also got a lot of benefits from the shopkeeper.
When making false accounts,
The guy looked indifferent.
But things came to light.
He can't afford the consequences.
The boy is a domestic slave of the Xu family.
He belongs to the Xu family entirely.
Xu Shouye can be regarded as a man and half a father.
My son made a big mistake.
Beaten by his father.
The government won't take care of it.
Is He Kuang just a little house slave?
Zhang Luo looked at the trembling waiter and shopkeeper.
"Okay, I think you also know what's in the ledger."
"I just need to tell you all about your false accounting."
"I will plead with Young Master Xu."
"Trouble your lives."
The guy is still hesitating.
Xu Shouye couldn't bear it anymore.
Slap the guy on the face.
"Your father..."
"Don't invite me again."
"This young master wants you to die now!"
Xu Shouye was afraid that he would drink the man.
This guy really can't hold it any longer.
Kneeling on the ground.
Tell me all the "good things" you have done.
After everyone said everything.
Shopkeeper Xu next to him also turned dark.
Then Zhang Luo explained what the waiter said.
It's all written down on paper.
Ask the clerk to put his thumbprint on the paper.
This time Xu Liu had nothing to say.
He lay on the ground holding Xu Shouye's legs and begging for mercy:
"Young master, you are just a little confused."
"Let this little dog live."
Xu Shouye was also very angry.
Unexpectedly, Xu Liu took so much money.
Xu Liu already had runny nose.
He grabbed Xu Shouye's leg.
I swore that I would never get the money back.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Luo whispered to Xu Shouye:
"That's it now."
"In my opinion, let Xu Liu make up the money."
Xu Shouye blushed and said angrily:
"That old guy took so much money from our Xu family."
"How could I spare him so easily!"
Zhang Luo shook his head and said:
"What he used to be greedy for was the Xu family's money."
"But now the bookstore is yours."
"If he doesn't make up the money."
"It's your money that I'm losing, young master."
What Zhang Luo said makes sense.
Xu Shouye reacted
If you tell your father about the matter.
The money that is made up will not be your share.
In the end, it is he who loses.
It must be to squeeze some more benefits from Xu Liu.
For Xu Shouye, it is the most cost-effective.
He nodded.
Zhang Luo continued:
"There is so much money lost now."
"Young Master, what can you do?"
