"This method is called double-entry accounting." Yang Zhen said slowly.
Seeing his wife staring at her wonderful eyes and looking like she was listening attentively, he continued:
"Nowadays, most of the accounting in the house is based on daily accounting. Some are a little more complicated, but in general it is still a running account. This accounting method can only simply record income and expenditure. If the same account occurs again, It is difficult to use loans, advances, deposits, reimbursements and other services. Because if you write them down without distinguishing them, it is easy to make mistakes, but if you don’t remember them, you will miss them..."
"Double-entry accounting method, each account will be recorded in two interconnected ledgers. Not only will the record be more comprehensive, but also each account can be better supervised..."
"For example, if the government purchases a certain material, on the one hand, the expenditure of this amount must be recorded in the government's money account, and on the other hand, the income of the material must be registered in the government's inventory..."
"When keeping accounts, you must follow the principles of 'debit' and 'credit'. As the saying goes, if there is a borrow, there must be a credit, and the loans must be equal..."
"There is a balancing relationship between the accounts, so that when you compare them during the audit, you can check the accuracy of each account record..."
Yang Zhen talked eloquently.
Although he did not study finance in his previous life, he knew the concept of double-entry accounting. In the past two days, he recalled and pondered, and sorted out the basic principles and methods of this accounting method. Although it is not as professional as that world, it is a great improvement compared to the current accounting method in this world.
The more she listened, the brighter her eyes became, and she finally asked:
"With this method, won't these people be able to make false accounts in the future?"
"Of course that won't work, but it will make it more difficult to make false accounts and make it easier to be discovered."
"This is very good." Madam nodded, very satisfied with what Yang Zhen recommended.
"Let's do this. You write an article about the method, benefits, etc. of this accounting method. Just like the introduction of figures last time, that one will be very good." The lady finally ordered.
"Yes." This is exactly what Yang Zhen plans to do next.
Seeing that his wife had no other instructions, he was about to leave.
"Aniang, I'm back!" At this time, a crisp little girl's voice came in.
Immediately, Yue'er rushed in. She was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and soft-soled boots. Her face was flushed, and she looked like she had just finished exercising.
Caiyun followed behind with a smile.
Seeing Yang Zhen here, Zhao Yuer showed a surprised expression, then clapped her hands and said:
"Brother Shitou, you are here too, tell us a story. Then Monkey Sun was crushed under the Five Elements Mountain. What happened next?"
Ever since Yang Zhen was "arranged" to be two days older than her, this little girl has been unconvinced and called Yang Zhen "Stone Brother" when they met.
Yang Zhen only stopped telling stories on the day she came back from Zhu's house, and then she recovered. She told a section of "Journey to the West" after dinner every day, which became an entertainment for everyone in the Zhao family.
It's just that Zhao Yue'er can't hear enough every time and always urges Yang Zhen to talk more.
"Then you have to call me brother." Yang Zhen couldn't afford to call her a little loli sister.
"Hmph, let's compete. The one who wins will be the big one." Zhao Yue'er challenged again.
"Yue'er, don't be rude." Before Yang Zhen could answer, Madam had already stopped her.
Yue'er pursed her lips, suddenly remembered something, and her smile widened again: "Mom, I've learned all the [Wuyuan Steps]!"
"Really?" Madam looked at Caiyun with a look of surprise. She smiled and bowed:
"Yes, ma'am. The lady just walked through it and the teacher praised her!"
"Auntie, if you don't believe it, I'll show you now." Yue'er said, taking a step to the left.
Yang Zhen only felt that her eyes were blurred. This little person seemed to have turned into a kitten, turning left and right, unpredictable and hard to find.
"What kind of pace is this, so magical?" Yang Zhen praised.
I also secretly muttered to myself, this little girl, can’t she really have a bad temper?
"If you want to see it, Cai Si can take you there the afternoon after tomorrow. Yue'er will study every other day." Seeing his curiosity, the lady ordered.
"Okay." Yang Zhen was full of curiosity about this pace.
…
After Yang Zhen went out, Madam asked Caiyun to take Yue'er to take a bath. She took the account book provided by Yang Zhen and looked at it for a long time. Finally, she sighed and asked the maid next to her:
"Caiyan, how many times has Jia Sheng come to see you in the past two days?"
"About four or five times." Caiyan said disdainfully: "Every time, my aunt called me and asked me to help spread the word, saying that she wanted to see Madam."
"Well, you call him over, and I'll see how panicked he is in the past two days."
After a while, the accountant with a beard walked in, his waist bent, looking timid.
"Jia Sheng has met Madam. I wish Madam good luck, good health and a prosperous journey to heaven." As soon as he saw Madam, he bowed to her and kept flattering her.
The lady ignored him and was busy reading some books without letting him get up.
Jia Sheng didn't dare to say a word, let alone get up. He lay there motionless, feeling uneasy. The longer he knelt down, the more frightened he became.
After about a cup of tea, my wife's voice finally came from above: "Jia Sheng, do you know why I called you here?"
Jia Sheng calmed down and decided to test it out: "Jia Sheng doesn't know, please let me know."
"I don't know? I wonder why you want Caiyan to see me?"
"This..." Jia Sheng hesitated: "This...I..."
"Think about it carefully and then talk about it after you think about it." The lady said calmly.
Jia Sheng suddenly stopped talking, not knowing what to do.
Since the account book was taken away, he has been restless every day. He knew that those accounts could not withstand in-depth investigation. The previous owner of this house just turned a blind eye. Now that the house has changed its owner, will he become the first to take the spotlight?
Before he came, he planned to check out his wife's words. If it didn't work, he would be more honest and give an explanation to his superiors, which would keep him safe at the same time.
But how to grasp this measure?
But after arriving here, Madam left him alone for a long time, which made him frightened and vaguely understood Madam's intention.
He had a friend who worked in a government office. One time when he was drinking, he told him some stories about officialdom. He once said:
"If your boss leaves you there and ignores you, it means that he is very dissatisfied with you. The longer it goes, the more dissatisfied he is, but it also means... that he doesn't want to kill you yet. But at this time, you must be honest. Stop playing tricks..."
Today's situation is exactly the same as what this man said!
This discovery made him both panicked and somewhat reassured. However, now the lady lets him say what he should say.
Tell it all? What about the consequences... The worst is that I will die, as long as...
What if you refuse to admit it? He will still be found out, and he will not be able to escape, but will only annoy the person in front of him. I heard that this person is...
He lay on the ground, shaking and sweating profusely.
The lady was not in a hurry and continued to read something.
But Jia Sheng felt increasing pressure, as if he was about to suffocate. He was originally a mortal, but when faced with people cultivating immortals, the faint pressure was even more unbearable for him.
"Have you thought about it?" After an unknown amount of time, the lady asked lightly from above.
Jia Sheng gritted his teeth, already thinking about it.
