The two accountants take turns, so there is no such thing as the accountant asking for leave or asking the shopkeeper to do it for him.
With the sound of knocking, shopkeeper Xing raised his head. He thought it was some old man coming to pay the bill. Unexpectedly, when he looked up, he found that it was the owner.
He was shocked, how could his boss be here at this time?
"My boss?" Shopkeeper Xing seemed to be confirming, but also seemed a little unbelievable.
Gu Chengyu nodded. There were many customers in the restaurant at this time. It was not good for him to pursue the matter now. He might as well wait until there were fewer people.
There were beads of sweat on Xing Yang's forehead. It was over! He didn't know why his boss suddenly appeared in front of him. After all, it was not easy for his boss to come back. He had never heard that his boss had returned to his hometown before!
The hand holding the ledger suddenly started to tremble. The ledger actually weighed a thousand kilograms in his hand. Xing Yang closed the ledger, but his heart sank.
"My boss, I"
"Do you still have my private room? I haven't had dinner yet." Gu Chengyu interrupted Xing Yang before he finished speaking. At this time, the restaurant was busy, and there were people coming and going, so it was difficult to deal with this matter.
inconvenient.
Xing Yang could see that Gu Chengyu didn't want to hear this now, and he also knew that it was really inappropriate to say this at this time.
So he nodded quickly, "Keep it, your room hasn't been moved yet. Boss, you go up first, and I'll ask the waiter to serve you food."
At this time, a waiter ran over. He thought that Gu Chengyu and the others were coming to the restaurant to eat. So he went up to say hello. After all, Gu Chengyu and Zhu Pang were dressed in extraordinary clothes, and they looked like they were wealthy patrons.
"Sir, there happens to be no seats available at the moment. However, there are a few guests over there who are about to leave. Do you think you can wait a moment?"
The waiter calculated in his mind that there were guests in the private rooms upstairs, and even the lobby was full. However, it was not too early now, and the guests would leave soon.
The waiter didn't recognize Gu Chengyu, and Gu Chengyu didn't care.
After all, he later went to the capital and never came to the restaurant in Jingyuan Prefecture. Many of the waiters here were recruited later, and he didn’t show up anonymously, so it was normal not to recognize him. The only people who had seen him were major companies.
The shopkeeper and accountant.
The restaurant has always been in charge of Yu Pangzi, and other items such as the powder shop and workshop are in charge of Gu Wanqian.
When the criminal steward saw that the waiter didn't know his boss, he quickly scolded him: "You have nothing to do here. Take away the Tian Zi No. 1 above. The young master wants to eat."
Because Gu Chengyu had promised that no one should know that he was the owner of the restaurant, so he did not point it out directly.
It's not that Gu Chengyu is afraid of trouble, but that he is now a court official and cannot make a living in this way. This is the rule of the court. Therefore, the people who come forward are usually Yu Paralytic or Gu Wanqian.
When Gu Chengyu thought of the account books just now, he couldn't help but think of Yu Panzi, who managed all the restaurants. Yu Panzi didn't sign the deed of sale, and the account book issue came up again today. Could it be that Yu Panzi was jealous and made some small moves down there?
He would read the capital's account books every month, but Jingyuan Prefecture was too far away from the capital, so he scheduled to submit the accounts every six months.
There is nothing wrong with the account books twice a year, but he cannot come to Jingyuan Mansion to check. If someone really does something, such as doing something to the daily income, how would he know?
Not to mention there are accounting rooms. Originally, Gu Chengyu was on guard against this, so he assigned two accounting rooms to each shop, and each accounting room would have an account book in hand.
However, this is not without its drawbacks. If they all collude and share the benefits, there is nothing they can do if they deceive him.
Gu Chengyu thought for a while, and then thought of the secrets he had told the emperor before. His current situation was really similar to that of the emperor. The emperor lived in the palace for a long time, and he could only rely on memorials to understand everything that happened in the place.
And Gu Chengyu could only rely on the account books to understand the situation of the restaurant. It seemed that he had to establish a picket department like the imperial court.
He came down from time to time to check the account books of these shops, and even the accountants and shopkeepers could secretly make small reports to him, just like a secret.
Gu Chengyu's idea was just in the flash of lightning. Once he had a general idea, he didn't think about it in depth anymore. This matter needed to be discussed in the long term.
As soon as the waiter heard this, he knew that this was a person that all the shopkeepers would fawn over. But, didn’t the shopkeeper of that private room say that he would leave it to his brother-in-law?
"Shopkeeper, didn't you say that the elegant room should be left to your brother-in-law?"
When Shopkeeper Xing heard this, he almost cursed you, this idiot.
Brother-in-law? Gu Chengyu turned around and looked at Shopkeeper Xing, "I remember that Shopkeeper Xing's wife doesn't have a brother-in-law? Where did this brother-in-law come from?"
Shopkeeper Xing was really a little panicked this time. Just now he was lucky enough to think that his boss would not remember the situation at his home, but he didn't expect that his boss would remember it so clearly.
He and his mother-in-law originally worked in the house of a wealthy family, and they were the sons of that family. But later, the original owner's business failed, so he sold them as slaves to pay back the money, and he joined his current owner.
When he and his mother-in-law were sold, they were a family of five. Where did the brother-in-law come from?
Seeing the half-smiling look on Gu Chengyu's face, Shopkeeper Xing couldn't help but tremble, fearing that he might not be able to be kind today.
No matter how stupid the guy was, he still noticed the clues now. He quickly shrank his neck and stopped talking.
Gu Chengyu glanced at the ring on Shopkeeper Xing's hand, and then asked with a smile: "Shopkeeper Xing got married again?"
Although the question was asked by shopkeeper Xing, his eyes were focused on the young boy.
The little boy was so cowardly that he glanced at Shopkeeper Xing and didn't dare to say a word.
Shopkeeper Xing didn't even dare to wipe the sweat from his head. He was a little dizzy at the moment.
Although Zhu Pang didn't know how to do business, he could see that there seemed to be something wrong with the shopkeeper. Jin Yu must be very dissatisfied at this moment.
Gu Chengyu didn't wait for the two to answer, and said to the boy: "Take us to the private room! I'm really hungry."
The boy then loosened the cloth in his hand and seemed to understand something.
Shopkeeper Xing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Gu Chengyu and the others had already gone upstairs. Someone happened to come to pay the bill, so Shopkeeper Xing had to step forward to count the money.
Gu Chengyu walked halfway up the stairs, turned around and winked at Ming Yan who was walking behind. He cast a vague glance at Shopkeeper Xing, and Ming Yan nodded knowingly.
When everyone went upstairs, Ming Yan left the private room without reporting to Gu Chengyu.
Gu Chengyu and the others arrived at the private room. Gu Chengyu glanced at her, and Mingmo suddenly turned around and closed the door.
"Young gentlemen, I don't know what dish you two want to serve? Could you please tell me the name of the dish?" The waiter hadn't noticed Ming Mo's movements yet, he just wanted to serve the two gentlemen in front of him.
The shopkeepers all nodded and bowed, but this little boy couldn't afford to offend him.
