But when he heard that Xu Yue wanted to investigate, he immediately took her there actively, without fear of being retaliated by the old neighbor if things didn't work out later.
To be honest, Xu Yue actually likes this kind of activist.
However, there was no sign of any liking or approval for Zheng Lai on his face. This was the same lukewarm attitude toward other villagers, but it made Zheng Lai a little uneasy.
But now that the matter has come to this, he can only continue to lead Xu Yue to investigate the truth.
Several people came to the canteen. It was mid-afternoon and everyone was busy at their respective posts. Although it was strange to see Zheng Lai wandering around with the third lady without going to work, the busy people did not have much energy to pay attention to him.
.
There were only a few people, and their hearts trembled.
But soon, they looked at each other and all looked at the third lady who was walking in the front and was no taller than an adult's waist. Then they showed a bit of contemptuous relaxation and continued to do the work at hand like no one else.
By the time Ah Er called Xu Dalang back from running up the mountain, Xu Yue and Jun Mei had already gone through the account books in the canteen and calculated the anomalies reported by Zheng Lai.
Generally speaking, there is nothing wrong with the three accounts. However, when comparing the written accounts with the actual situation, I feel that they are unreasonable.
What does this mean? No need for Xu Yue to explain, Jun Mei can quickly tell the answer.
"The main account has been manipulated. Maybe someone accepted bribes and joined forces to deceive the superiors and subordinates. Moreover, they are quite smart and know that a large difference in the amount will quickly arouse suspicion."
"So the excess amount is not much, but it is one or two kilograms more rice every other day, or a few more work points every few days. If you don't pay attention, it will be difficult to attract attention."
"If someone hadn't reported it, maybe we would have been fooled by them!" Jun Mei said angrily.
Xu Yue directly spread the accounts on the counter of the canteen, and Zheng Lai could clearly see the work points collection record on it.
But he looked at it for a long time and counted with his fingers for a long time, but he couldn't figure out anything. Let alone see that it was tampered with.
At first, he was frightened, thinking that he might be in trouble if he reported this.
Fortunately, Third Miss and Junmei's steward are smarter than him... Hey, wait! Third Miss is not stupid!
Therefore, the third lady should be able to find out those people who started making small moves because the master and his wife left, right?
Xu Yue smiled at Zheng Lai, "You did a good job. Write down the names of the people you want to report. You will be given two hundred work points for each one you check, but if you blame the wrong one, you will be deducted five hundred work points!"
Zheng Lai was dumbfounded and almost slapped the word "why" on his face.
It’s true that you should be rewarded if you report correctly, but why should you be punished so heavily if you report wrongly?
Xu Yue seemed to know what he was going to ask, and stood up and explained: "I am only responsible for handling problems, not helping you to screen problems. The culture of false reporting cannot be promoted, but it cannot block everyone's enthusiasm for reporting, so there are rewards and punishments.
.”
As he spoke, his eyes fell on the canteen manager who was standing in the corner, looking panicked.
This is a girl of eighteen or nineteen years old. Being able to work as a manager in the canteen means that her IQ is higher than that of most villagers, so she can hold such an important position.
In Zhuangzi, unlike outside, managers can be men or women. As long as you have outstanding abilities, you can hold important management positions.
Xu Yue was encouraged by her mother-in-law and particularly loved promoting female stewards.
Because compared with men, once a woman is given the opportunity to stand in such a position, she will be more loyal than those men.
Because they know that everything they get must depend on the master's family, so they will be more active than male stewards.
Seeing Xu Yue's gaze, Zhang Wuniang, the manager of the canteen, opened her mouth but hesitated, wanting to explain something.
But Xu Yue raised her hand to stop her, "If you have anything to say, please leave it to the meeting hall."
Gu Yi
After saying that, Xu Yue left.
Junmei then took away the copy of the account books from the canteen.
Zheng Lai then lingered on Zhang Wuniang with suspicious eyes for a moment, but unexpectedly turned his head and faced Xu Dalang who walked in.
Although everyone knows that the eldest young master is careless, his carelessness does not conflict with his reputation as a tyrant.
Lifting a thousand pounds, hitting the head with one punch, etc., the villagers saw a lot.
When Leng Buding met the young man's eyes, Zheng Lai was so shocked that his heart almost escaped.
At this moment, he suddenly felt full of confidence in the third lady.
"Close the door and follow me." Xu Dalang said coldly to Zhang Wuniang. His commanding tone allowed no one to refute him.
The young man left Zhang Wuniang shivering, turned around and stretched out his hand towards Zheng Lai.
Zheng Lai was stunned at first, then quickly realized and handed him the report list. Originally, he had seven or eight names in mind to write down, but he deducted 500 points for Xu Yue's false report, and carefully crossed out two of his own names.
Uncertain name.
So, submit the names of five people in total.
Xu Dalang took the list and walked towards the Southeast Industrial Zone, followed by seven or eight strong men.
When Wang left, he left a team of ten people at the village, dispatched by Xu Dalang.
Xu Dalang left one person to keep an eye on Zhang Wuniang, and led the rest of the people to the factory.
He didn't say any nonsense. He went to the place and called out the names on the list. If someone should respond, someone should respond. If someone responded, he would have someone follow him. If someone didn't respond, a big man would stride forward and grab him with a single lift.
come out.
The effortless and relaxed look seemed as if the person he was lifting was not an adult, but a piglet.
Such a domineering move immediately disturbed people's hearts, and the workers were whispering and discussing.
Seeing that everyone stopped what they were doing, Xu Dalang raised his eyebrows and said coldly:
"For delaying workers, ten points will be deducted for each person!"
His eagle-like black eyes glanced at the manager again, "You, after arranging things in the factory, come to the conference room immediately."
The administrator nodded in fear and watched as Xu Da and his party led away the five people and several stewards involved. He swallowed hard, quickly settled things in the factory, and trotted after them.
Soon, all the people involved arrived. The five people who were reported and the four administrators who were involved, a total of nine people, stood in front of Xu Yue anxiously.
The little girl's face was cold, showing a majesty and solemnity that they had never seen before.
Xu Dalang stood next to him again to intimidate Tu Sheng, and the four stewards immediately knelt down with a plop.
As soon as they knelt down, the other five villagers also knelt down. Some of them shouted that they were wronged, but secretly looked at Zheng Lai, who was standing on the other side of Xu Yue, with hateful eyes.
Xu Yue looked at the villagers who were about to cry out their grievances without even asking. She stopped them and directly displayed whips, finger clips, needle hammers, long boards and other torture tools, and asked:
"Do you want to recruit them yourself or wait until I am sentenced?"
Zhang Wuniang, the only woman among the nine, cried and raised her hands.
