Ye Jintang said that he would check the accounts and inventory tomorrow, but in fact it was just a cover-up.
After lunch that day, she directly fired a counterattack at Shopkeeper Wen, catching him off guard.
When Ye Jintang went to the bank, shopkeeper Wen was urging the accountant to make new accounts.
Of course the new account is for Ye Jintang to see.
"Both accounting gentlemen, you have to move quickly. I guess Ye Jintang will play tricks again tomorrow. If she finds out that the accounts are wrong, none of us will be able to get through it easily."
"Time is too tight. I'm afraid that the accounts won't look good. What if I'm discovered?"
Accountant Liang was very worried about problems with the accounts.
If Mr. Accountant is found to have made false accounts and is found out by his employer, then Mr. Accountant's future career may be over.
"With me here, Ye Jintang is just a yellow-haired girl. How can she understand the ledger? She said she came to take stock of the warehouse, but she just wanted to see if the gold and silver jewelry in the warehouse matched the ledger. "
"She is young and has no elders around her. She is just doing these things for other shopkeepers to see. You don't need to be nervous."
"You just need to make the accounts look good. If Ye Jintang can't find any flaws on his face, the matter will be ignored."
As he spoke, Shopkeeper Wen lowered his voice and continued with a proud look on his face.
"We just took advantage of this opportunity to take away all the money we could. In a few days, someone from the Ye family will come to take over Magistrate Ye's property. We want to make money from it, but it won't be that easy."
"What Shopkeeper Wen said is that we hurry up and get the ledgers in order."
The three people in the room were busy, but they didn't know that Ye Jintang had already arrived at the door of the silver building.
When the waiters in the lobby saw Ye Jintang coming with several people, they ran to the backyard to inform shopkeeper Wen.
Zhou Wuwei suddenly rushed over without making a sound and kicked the guy on the back.
The two female escorts quickly stepped forward, twisted the guy's arms, and walked toward the backyard.
"Shopkeeper Wen, you are very busy."
Ye Jintang rushed into the backyard with his people, and saw shopkeeper Wen and two accountants in the room doing abacus calculations.
The weather was hot, and the two accountants didn't know whether they were nervous or just too hot, but their faces were covered in sweat.
Shopkeeper Wen was extremely shocked and glanced at the man who was being escorted by two female escorts. His heart felt cold. Ye Jintang came prepared.
"Miss Ye, why is this?"
Shopkeeper Wen's face was extremely ugly. If it weren't for Ye Jintang's identity, he might have looked at her directly.
"It's nothing. I thought I have nothing to do this afternoon, so I might as well check the inventory in the bank building."
As he spoke, Ye Jintang gave Zhou Cong a look, and he immediately went to the front hall and sent all the guests out with a smile.
Everyone had just seen Zhou Wuwei kicking the guy hard, and they vaguely knew that something was going on at Yinlou.
Just as they were about to crane their heads to watch the excitement, they saw that the owner was about to close their doors and refuse customers, so they couldn't stay long.
In addition to shopkeeper Wen and two accountants, there are 6 clerks and 14 craftsmen in the silver building.
The craftsman is in the backyard and has a room dedicated to making jewelry.
Ye Jintang revealed his identity and summoned everyone.
"Who's in charge of the warehouse?"
None of the guys came forward to speak.
Shopkeeper Wen on the side said with a smile, "I will definitely not leave such an important place like the warehouse to a clerk."
No wonder Shopkeeper Wen was so confident. It turned out that he had everything in Silver House in his own hands.
"Then please, Shopkeeper Wen, hand over the keys to the warehouse. I'm going to count the items in the warehouse now."
Shopkeeper Wen looked at Ye Jintang with a faint smile on his face, showing no intention of moving at all.
If he opens the warehouse door today, he may not be able to do anything good.
"Miss Ye, I have been the shopkeeper of the Wen family for more than ten years. Later, I followed Mrs. Wen to the Ye family. Even if I have no credit, I still have hard work. Miss Ye treats me like this, which is really chilling."
"Don't worry, Shopkeeper Wen. As long as you have a clear conscience, I won't hurt your face no matter how I check the accounts."
Ye Jintang has no patience at all when dealing with people like Shopkeeper Wen.
She directly asked Zhou Wuwei to grab the warehouse key from shopkeeper Wen.
Shopkeeper Wen saw that he couldn't control the situation, so he wanted to use force.
"What are you guys doing standing still? Miss Ye must have been instigated by someone to do the surgery on her own bank. Why don't you stop her?"
Shopkeeper Wen looked at the guys at Yinlou, hoping that they would come forward to help and stop Ye Jintang and his party.
After all, the people around Ye Jintang were not very old, and most of them were women. Shopkeeper Wen didn't want to listen to her.
Let’s get over today’s incident first and talk about the rest later. He always has a way to get over it.
It's a pity that shopkeeper Wen's wishful thinking was wrong. Ye Jintang is not a boss who can be manipulated easily.
"You are brave enough to bully your superiors. According to our Beixu regulations, slaves who are bullied by superiors can be beaten to death with sticks."
"Don't you people want your lives?"
"Don't forget, I still have your deed of sale in my hand. I don't need to pay you a single copper if I kill you."
Ye Jintang's beautiful eyes, as if they were tempered with ice, swept over the clerks and craftsmen of the silver building coldly.
Everyone present knew that they were all trained by the Wen family.
After following Mrs. Wen to Yuezhou more than ten years ago, Mrs. Wen treated them kindly and made their lives so comfortable that she also made them forget their true identities.
Now that Ye Jintang pointed it out, everyone suddenly realized who was the owner of the silver building.
When Shopkeeper Wen saw that the situation was beyond his control, he immediately put a smile on his face and said, "Girl, don't be angry. I'm not afraid that the warehouse will be too messy. Don't dirty the girl's shoes."
"Key to the warehouse."
"Here I am."
Shopkeeper Wen didn't dare to shirk anymore and quickly opened the warehouse door. He thought to himself, Ye Jintang, a little girl, wouldn't think that checking the warehouse was a simple matter, right?
Then let her investigate slowly. If he doesn't believe it, what else can she find out?
The warehouse of the Silver Building contains a lot of gold and silver bars and various gemstones, which are used to make jewelry.
In addition, there are various jewelry accumulated over the years.
Box after box of gold and silver was counted. Ye Jintang did not expect that the gold and silver bars alone would be converted into 60,000 taels of silver.
This does not include the various gemstones and the finished jewelry.
After converting so many things, it would cost at least one hundred thousand taels of silver.
If someone else saw the contents of this warehouse and wanted to completely inventory them, it would probably take a day or two.
It's not that troublesome to leave Ye Jintang here. The previous account books are very clear. Today she is here for shopkeeper Wen. The focus of the inventory is naturally those problematic areas.
Aunt Liu directed the clerks in the bank to start inventorying the warehouse.
The first things to be counted were silver and gold bars and various gemstones.
