Chapter 480 The male protagonist's cannon fodder cousin (3)
Zi Yuan and Ziyao are both the eldest maids of the original body. However, Ziyao has a sharp mouth and a good tongue, which often makes the girl laugh. Therefore, the girl always likes to take Ziyao with her, in all important matters.
Let Ziyao do it.
This time it was rare for a girl to entrust her with an important task. Zi Yuan couldn't hide her joy and blessed herself. She said "yes" and went to run her errands with all her heart.
After that, Xu Yin didn't call the waiter in anymore. She had experience putting on and taking off ancient costumes.
I changed out of my complicated travel clothes that were embellished with embroidery and put on some comfortable home clothes. I threw a dewdrop collected in the secret garden into my mouth. As soon as the spiritual dewdrop entered my mouth, I felt that the spiritual platform was clear and bright.
What a good thing!
It is indeed a product of the cultivation world, I will continue to stock up next time!
Prepare more porcelain bottles for collecting spiritual dew water. If you can enter Baiyuan Garden next time, you can collect spiritual dew water. This is more useful than the mountain spring water of Lingxu Sect.
It's a pity that the mission reward of this small world does not seem to be a recuperation. I don't know when the next recuperation will have to wait.
Then I thought about it: Exploding random skills wouldn’t be bad either.
At least the random skills she has obtained so far are quite useful. The only one she feels is useless is [Floating Light and Misty Rain], which gave her great convenience in Taoyuan Star. It's so delicious!
So you have to trust the system and its professionalism.
If the system can speak and dare to refute, here is a sentence from the precipice: when it is necessary to unify, it is the system master, and when it is not needed, it is the system. Host, you are so fickle, does "he" in your family know?
"Girl, the housekeeper said everything is ready in the accounting room."
Ziyuan announced through the curtain.
Xu Yin is quite satisfied with her rules.
Unlike Ziyao, every time the curtain is lifted, people come in, as if this is not the master's boudoir, but her own.
"Then let's go!"
Xu Yin stuffed the draft of the plan she had just drafted into her sleeve pocket and walked to the front yard.
When the old housekeeper saw the young master whom he hadn't seen for many days, his eyes became a little hot:
"Girl, I heard that girl Ziyao say that you have decided not to go to Fengcheng? It's better not to go! No place is as good as home."
Xu Yin was happy, this housekeeper suited her needs.
"That's right. After breakfast, I felt a little sleepy. I took a nap and dreamed about my parents. They asked me to take over the family business. I couldn't let my ancestors' hard work fail like this. I went to Fengcheng and thought about how to take over the business.
Our business? Simply stop it."
Xu Yin thought that she had to find a reasonable excuse for her inconsistent behavior, so she thought of her original parents and temporarily changed her mind not to go to Fengcheng on the grounds that they were in a dream.
Ever since she experienced the world of movie queens, her serious talk about running a train can be included in the specialty column of her resume.
No, the old housekeeper was convinced: "That's great! The old man must be very happy to know this."
He raised his sleeves and wiped the wet corners of his eyes, then asked: "Girl, are you still offering the spice shop?"
Xu Yin was stunned: "What?"
"Didn't the lady tell me a few days ago to sell out all the spice shops in our house and turn them into silver notes? But I haven't found a suitable buyer for a while..."
"
Xu Yin understood that the original person probably felt that he could not run such a large shop well, so he decided to go to his aunt's house in Fengcheng, so he asked the housekeeper to transfer the spice shop and convert it into silver notes so that he could carry it easily.
It was indeed quite convenient - it was convenient for her aunt to suck blood.
"No need, my parents told me in my dream that Xu's Spice Shop will continue to operate from generation to generation."
When the old housekeeper heard this, he was overjoyed: "Old slave, I will ask Xu Kui to inform the shopkeepers."
Xu Kui is his adopted child.
The old housekeeper never married, so he naturally had no children. Xu Kui was a baby he picked up in the snow when he went out fifteen years ago.
At that time, the family had been waiting for a long time but had not received the child. A woman in the house advised him: If you don't want to marry, then adopt the child. In the future, when you stretch your legs, you will have someone to throw basins and lift flags for you.
So, he adopted the child, and the old man helped give him the name Xu Kui.
Xu Yin has a golden finger in the plot, confirming that the housekeeper and his son are trustworthy. In addition, Zi Yuan is also a loyal servant, and the others are open to question.
Therefore, she followed the housekeeper to the study to discuss with him the replacement of servants in the house.
Now she is the only master in the house and there is no need for so many servants.
With more people and less work, doesn't this clearly encourage the servants to be lazy? The last thing Xu Yin disdains is to take advantage of others.
The butler looked solemn and said, "Did that little guy who took advantage of the situation have been wronged by the girl? Those bastards! Master, as soon as the lady left, they dared to be arrogant! Don't worry, girl, I will ask the tooth man to come over right away.
, I will definitely do what you asked me to do!"
Xu Yin believed in his ability to do things and waved her hand: "Go ahead! Let the servant do the errands. Just help me keep an eye on things and select a few people who are loyal to the house and hardworking."
The old housekeeper smiled so hard that he couldn't even see his eyebrows: "It is my honor that the girl can trust me."
After the housekeeper left, Xu Yin came to the study.
The accountant has sent all the account books from the mansion.
Xu Yin read them one by one.
It wasn't that she suspected there was something wrong with the account books and wanted to dig out all the silverfish in the house and clean them out, but she wanted to cut off some unnecessary expenses and free up the money to buy land on the hilltop to grow flowers and spices.
The tens of thousands of hectares of fertile land purchased by the Xu Mansion should continue to grow crops.
In ancient times, spices could make money, but after all, they were not as important as food.
Xu Yin turned over and recorded on the blank paper aside, sometimes thoughtfully, and subconsciously tapped the rosewood tabletop with her fingers.
The accountant turned pale when he saw that her abacus was useless and she calculated the total of several expenses.
He knew that the girl would not come to check the accounts for no reason. Maybe someone would tell her that he had falsified the accounts.
How to do how to do!
Are you begging for mercy? Or are you being stubborn and refusing to admit it?
If you beg for mercy, with the girl's kindness, she will definitely spare herself this time, right?
But begging for mercy also means admitting that she has made false accounts. Will the girl hand over the accounting office to herself in the future?
"well……"
As soon as Xu Yin said two words, she saw the accountant was frightened, his legs went weak, and he fell to his knees on the ground.
"Girl, spare your life!"
Xu Yin: "..."
I just roughly calculated a few unnecessary expenses. What are you doing?
"Girl, I'm wrong! I shouldn't be greedy for those few taels of silver to help Xu Da wipe out the money he owes to the government; nor should I let Zhou Da's daughter-in-law get an extra one just because she wants to marry my daughter.
A pen of silver; let alone..."
Xu Yin: "..."
How many things have you done to betray the Lord?
One, two, three, four, five and you haven’t even finished counting?
Xu Yin watched quietly as he cried bitterly and stated his sins while slapping himself.
"Please, girl, please spare my life for the sake of Master and Madam!"
When Xu Yin saw him mentioning the late master of the Xu Mansion, she knew that he wanted to play the emotional card. She picked up the account book again and flipped through it, speaking in a calm and authentic tone:
"Get up and speak! Since you are repentant, I will give you a chance to correct the falsehoods and explain the reasons. Remember, if I find that the account book is not clean again, don't blame me.
You’re welcome, girl!”
After saying that, Xu Yin picked up the white porcelain cup on the table, drank all the tea in one gulp, then held it in her hand and squeezed it gently, and the porcelain cup instantly turned into powder.
The accountant's eyes widened in disbelief, and his pupils blurred for a few seconds before he regained consciousness and fell to his knees again.
This time he knelt much more vigorously than before, and Xu Yin even felt pain in his knees for him.
The accountant kowtowed and begged for mercy, and then promised: "Thank you, Miss, for giving me a chance. I will definitely correct the false accounts."
"You don't have to go back to the accounting room, just fix it here. Ziyuan, go to the big kitchen later and have the accounting master's meals delivered here."
"yes."
Ziyuan obeyed the orders.
As a result, everyone in the Xu family soon knew that the young master in the family was showing off his power.
