Don't go back to hometown

As long as you pretend nothing happened, Xie Cheng won't know that I know——

Jiang Xianyu comforted himself, changed his clothes and went to Xie Cheng.

Outside the study, the accountant of the Xie family saw Jian Shimo leading Jiang Xianyu over, stepped forward to salute, and reminded: "Young master, I'm afraid the young master will not be free right now."

Jiang Xianyu understood, and asked in a low voice: "Have you found out the problem with the account book?"

The accountant steward nodded, and said cryptically, "Young master is talking to Uncle Xie's family right now."

Uncle uncle?

Jiang Xianyu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered that Xie Cheng's grandfather was Xing Er and had four brothers.The business of the Xie family started from Xie Cheng's great-grandfather, and the next five sons are all heirs of the Xie family.

But Jiang Xianyu originally thought that the reselling of jade and jewelry was done by outsiders, but he didn't expect it to be his own relatives.

Originally, Xie Cheng had business to do, so Jiang Xianyu didn't intend to disturb him, but he was also worried that Xie Cheng would be bullied by his uncles - if those old men moved out of their status as elders to mess around, Xie Cheng might not be able to deal with it.

He thought for a while and asked Shimo: "Do you have the key to the side door inside?"

There is a bedroom in Xie Cheng's study, if he reads late, Xie Cheng will rest in it.There is a side door in the bedroom, connected to the bathroom and the fire room, Jiang Xianyu used to sneak into the study from here, to play tricks on Xie Cheng when he wasn't paying attention.

Shimo nodded.He is responsible for Xie Cheng's daily life and pen and ink, and the key to the side door is in his hand.

Jiang Xianyu said: "You go in later to change tea, and tell him quietly, I'll wait for him inside."

Always support him.

Shimo nodded, entered the room by changing tea, and whispered something in Xie Cheng's ear.

Xie Cheng nodded slightly, and said again: "Prepare some soup and meals."

"No need." The eldest uncle of the Xie family said in a deep voice, "I can't eat your family's meal today, uncle."

Xie Cheng: "..."

He glanced at Uncle Xie's family and ignored him.

He said to Shimo again, "Add another bowl of sweet bean curd."

Shimo: "..."

Well!He was surprised just now, he was clearly talking about Young Master Jiang, why did he suddenly ask him to arrange meals!It turned out to be for Young Master Jiang!

Others don't know it, but as the young master's "personal" book boy, he naturally knows it best: Young Master Jiang often takes his young master to eat bean curd, and his favorite is salty and spicy, followed by the sweetness of red bean and osmanthus honey.

Now hearing Xie Cheng's order, Shimo immediately understood, "I understand."

When exiting the study, Shimo glanced at Uncle Xie's family: All right!His face was livid!

Jiang Xianyu got the key and entered the bedroom through the side door. Before he could sit down, he heard a slap on the table in front of him and roared, "What's the point! Tell me to come over!"

"That's right!" Another person echoed, "Even if your grandfather is here today, he wouldn't dare to talk to us like that."

Jiang Xianyu couldn't help frowning, and then heard Xie Cheng chuckle.

"Grandfather is kind, caring about brotherhood, I'm afraid I never would have imagined that uncles and uncles are so old and disrespectful!"

"Thank you!!!"

There was a bang, as if someone kicked over the chair, and the voice was old but full of anger: "You are a scholar in vain, so don't be afraid that I will accuse you of disrespect and disfilialism, and let the government take your fame!"

Jiang Xianyu's heart tightened when he heard this, and he leaned behind the screen to peek.

Just listen to Xie Chengdao: "Everyone, just go. At that time, the entire Yangzhou City, and even the entire Dacheng Dynasty, will know that the Xie family has been reselling the jade ore materials given by the saints, embezzling the family property, not only condemning the family, but also deceiving the emperor!"

"you--"

"Big brother! Big brother!"

The uncle didn't catch his breath, and almost lost his breath.

The two brothers stepped forward to support the bloated uncle, stroked his chest and gave him comfort.

Jiang Xianyu has seen these people before, but the distinction is not very clear, he can only be vaguely identified from the appearance and age.

The two uncles surrounded the eldest uncle, but the fifth uncle sat on the sidelines and watched, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.

The uncle who had almost fainted slowly recovered, pointed his index finger at Xie Cheng and said, "Call...call your father over here! He will definitely not look at you, an unfilial son, and use these specious evidence to persecute grandpa!"

Xie Cheng took a sip of tea indifferently: "It is father's intention to invite all uncles and uncles to come here today."

The uncle's expression changed slightly, and he exchanged glances with his two younger brothers.

The third uncle looked at Xie Cheng, with a smirk on his face, and said: "I'm afraid your father is confused. Did he think that using these fake account books can convict us and make us withdraw from the Xie family's business?"

Fourth Uncle: "That's right! Your second room said that the account books are fake, and jade, jewelry and silver are missing, but the shopkeepers and accountants of each shop are hired by your second room. How can you know that it's not you who are calling for a thief!"

Nonsense!Jiang Xianyu grabbed the edge of the screen, feeling aggrieved.

"Fourth Uncle is right." Xie Cheng said, "Only by looking at the account books, it is true that it is impossible to find out who is filling his pockets, but if we find out the whereabouts of the jade jewelry—"

The faces of the uncle and the others changed suddenly, and even the fifth uncle who had been silent all this time looked at Xie Cheng in surprise.

Xie Cheng took out two brochures and said, "I didn't know that our family's Langyuzhai and Jinyu Pavilion have opened many branches in Yunzhou, Minzhou, and Lingnan."

"These semicolons are under the names of the uncle, third uncle, and fourth uncle's relatives, and the jade jewelry sold in them are all engraved with the word 'Lang' of our Xie family, but the proceeds have never been recorded in the family property of the grandpa. Why? Uncles and uncles, can you enlighten your nephews and grandchildren?"

The uncle and the others looked at Xie Cheng in disbelief.

The third uncle took a look at the brochure in Xie Cheng's hand, and found that the other party had indeed found out the locations and operating conditions of those shops, and immediately slumped down on the chair.

Hearing this, Jiang Xianyu was finally relieved, it seemed that Xie Cheng had already grasped the solid evidence and would not be fooled by those old guys.

It's just that he couldn't help thinking, Xie Cheng found out that the account books were falsified, and it took less than ten days before and after, how could he go to Yunzhou, Minzhou, and Lingnan thousands of miles away to find out the whereabouts of jade jewelry?

Moreover, before he left home in his previous life, there was no such thing as falsified account books...

Jiang Xianyu was puzzled, so he heard the uncle speak outside.

"If it wasn't for your second wife being the champion, there's no need for us to make such a bad move."

"That's right!" The third uncle licked his lips and poured a cup of tea, "We inherited our father's craftsmanship of carving jade, and the Xie family's business and reputation depend on our craftsmanship. But the shop under our name, But you have to pay [-]% of the income to your second wife, how can there be such a reason!"

Xie Cheng raised his eyes lightly, "Why didn't you say what third uncle said in front of great-grandfather when we separated?"

The third uncle was dumbfounded, and turned to look at the uncle.

The uncle didn't say a word.

Xie Cheng continued: "You uncles, don't you think that my great-grandfather is partial to my grandfather?"

"The nephew is here to settle an account for you."

"Back when the sage gave the jade mine, all uncles and uncles learned to carve jade from my great-grandfather, but they didn't know how to manage the jade mine. They guarded the huge industry and didn't know how to start a business, so they pushed my grandfather out and said His jade carving skills are not good, but his mind is flexible, so he is suitable for handling this matter."

"So my grandfather stayed in the mining area for three years, led the manpower to open the mine, and returned home to marry a wife at 26. Then it was also my grandfather who suggested that my great-grandfather teach the people how to carve jade. Give the word."

Xie Cheng paused, and continued: "The Jinyu Pavilion at the back was opened by the old master who was invited by my grandfather to make gold and silverware from a long distance, and taught this craft to the fourth uncle's family."

"Every sub-colon since then is the property that my grandfather went to one state and one county to work hard bit by bit. But before his death, my great-grandfather presided over the division of the family, but distributed the lucrative Langyuzhai and Jinyu Pavilion to the family. The four uncles and uncles only left the jade mine to the second room to take care of it - just to take care of it, not to belong to the second room."

"I also said that some uncles and uncles don't understand business, and they want their grandfather to be in charge of running the shops. That's why they asked each shop to share [-]% of the profits to the second bedroom. At that time, all the uncles and uncles agreed."

Speaking of this, the uncle and the others recalled the scene where they thought they could sit and collect money and wished for it, and their faces were ugly.

Xie Cheng took their expressions into his eyes, and continued: "You uncles and uncles have indeed supported the Xie family's property with their craftsmanship, but from the jade mine to the shop, my grandfather is running around, isn't that considered Credit?"

Moreover, the Xie family's jade carving skills are not all in the hands of a few uncles and uncles.With just a few of them, how can they supply shops all over the states?

Xie Cheng didn't say this for the time being, but said: "But before my grandfather passed away, he already offered to reduce the income from the second house split to [-]%."

Because at that time, Xie Cheng's father invited craftsmen who made rouge and gouache to study the formula and created Linglongfang.Xie Cheng's mother married into the second wife of Xie's family with her family's weaving and embroidery skills, and opened Langyun Pavilion.

Grandfather Xie Cheng saw that Father Xie was able to work hard for the family business on his own, so he wanted to take care of his siblings and offered to make a profit.

The rest of the houses were naturally rejoicing.

"Who would have thought that you uncles and uncles are not greedy enough, and you actually play tricks behind your back!" Xie Cheng said coldly.

"Nonsense!!" The uncle said angrily, "What do you mean we are playing tricks? The craftsmanship is clearly in our hands, but your second wife has to share [-]% of it for nothing. If it weren't for this, how could your father have the confidence to afford Linglong back then? Square and Langyun Pavilion!"

The fourth uncle is still the uncle's answer: "That's right! Now when it comes to Xie's family, outsiders only recognize your second wife. We craftsmen who have worked so hard to learn the craft have lost both fame and fortune. How can there be such a reason!"

"Famous and wealthy?" Xie Cheng sneered, "I want to ask for my grandfather, who is it that excluded my grandfather from letting him learn crafts?! Claiming to be the heir of the royal craftsman, he thinks that being a businessman is self-deprecating. And who is it that blamed my grandfather?!"

"You—" The uncle's face was ashen, and he pointed Xie Cheng with his index finger, so angry that he couldn't utter a word.

Xie Cheng glanced at everyone, "All the uncles and uncles put the responsibility on my grandfather at first, but now they dare to see profit and forget justice, and condemn the family to betray their relatives?"

"Or do you think that if the second room receives the [-]% profit, it will really benefit a lot?"

Xie Cheng stood up with a stern expression and fierce words.

"Every family affairs, such as the new ancestral hall at the beginning, and every time the ancestors worshiped and recited the Buddha, Erfang invested the most. The ethnology that the uncles and grandchildren went to school was also funded by the Erfang. The mining and maintenance of jade mines, the production of jade materials and finished products Erfang is responsible for the transportation and salaries of shopkeepers in various shops! Even the more than 2000 artisans raised under the name of Xie’s family are all funded by Erfang!”

"You uncles and uncles, do you think that the mere [-]% profit is enough to cover these expenses?"

When the uncle and the others heard this, their faces were pale and white, and they were extremely embarrassed.
