Xia Nan raised his hands weakly: "Get up, come into the house and talk." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The group got up, followed behind, and entered the main hall together.

Dong Mingjue respectfully reported: "Master, the maid of this house of the Gao family is only temporarily staying, the maid and the mother still live in the original east wing, the property of each room in the house has been counted and sealed in each room, and the maid has made a list, please take a look." As he spoke, he handed over a slip.

Xia Nan took it and took a few looks, and the jewelry, jewelry, antique vases and other valuable things were noted one by one in the order of the big room, the second room, and the third room, which was clear at a glance, and the font was neat and neat, and it was pleasing to the eye.

Xia Nan didn't care too much about how to dispose of these belongings, but Dong Mingjue's attitude made him feel a lot more comfortable, and he asked, "You write well, have you studied in a private school?" ”

Dong Mingjue bowed his head and replied: "If you go back to the master, I have invited a gentleman at home to teach the younger brother in the eldest mother's room, and I have been learning for a few years......"

Xia Nan nodded, since under Xie Wenjun's interference, Dong Mingjue had to be used, even if it was a short-term transition, it was naturally a good thing that she could read, and it would be better if she could count. He then asked, "Are you going to do it?" Can it count? ”

Dong Mingjue took an abacus from the table next to him and replied confidently: "Please also ask the master to take the test for the school." ”

Seeing her confident appearance, Xia Nan smiled slightly and said to Zhang Mingli: "Mingli, you test her." ”

Zhang Mingli replied: "Yes, sir." Turning his head to Dong Mingjue and asking, "Zhang Ji cloth store arrived 6,600 pieces of cotton cloth, the purchase price is 5 yuan of silver per piece of cloth, the market is 4 pieces of cloth and 3 taels of silver, 5,480 pieces of cloth were sold that month, and the monthly store labor expenditure was 60 taels of silver. ”

As he spoke, Dong Mingjue immediately began to "crackle" and start the calculation, almost as soon as Zhang Mingli's words fell, the movements in her hands also stopped, and immediately replied: "I got four thousand and fifty taels of silver, and after removing the purchase price and labor, the net profit was seven hundred and fifty taels of silver." ”

Xia Nan, Liu Quan, and Zhang Mingli all let out a "huh", and they were all shocked by Dong Mingjue's speed.

Liu Quan didn't believe that she had such a ability, so he took the abacus and "crackled" for a long time, and finally said incredibly: "It's not bad!" ”

Zhang Mingli sighed: "Manager Liu, the branch of my store is used in this method to test the school, and the number is not wrong. No one has calculated the accounts for half a lifetime, and no little girl has calculated so quickly and accurately. He turned to Xia Nan and said, "Congratulations to the master for adding another right-hand man." ”

Xia Nan didn't expect that a young woman in a feudal society actually had such a reaction speed and calculation ability, even if it was placed in the old time and space, she could be called a little abacus expert, although from the perspective of modern education, this is a practical problem at the level of primary school students, but it is already rare to put it on the ancients with a generally low level of education. The most important thing is that Dong Mingjue is very fast. He estimated that whether he was mentally arithmetic or using a calculator, his speed might not be as fast as Dong Mingjue's abacus.

From this point of view, at least in terms of professional skills, Dong Mingjue initially has the basic qualities of a money bank shopkeeper, if loyalty can be guaranteed, with a little experience, the money bank may not be handed over to her to take care of in the future.

He asked with some curiosity: "You are a young girl, why are you so familiar with abacus?" "If you are a child of other rich families, most of you care about whether the jewelry is beautiful or not, and whether the rouge gouache looks good, right?

Dong Mingjue replied: "The maid's life experience, and the status of the two of them in the Gao family are also known. From the day I became sensible, I made a vow that one day I must leave the Gao family with my own ability, and not rely on the Gao family's money to support myself and my mother. Later, I took the opportunity of Gao Hongtu to let me help take care of the money bank, and I worked hard to learn to keep accounts and settle accounts, thinking that maybe I would have the opportunity to go to someone else's shop to be a female accountant. ”

Xia Nan listened to it with a lot of feelings, and said that the children of the poor are in charge of the family early, although Dong Mingjue was born in a rich family, but to a certain extent, he is not as good as the children of poor families, living under the discriminatory eyes of other wives and concubines and their children all day long, being a man with his tail between his legs, and enduring the sexual harassment of Gao Hongtu, a cheap "father", she did not give up on herself, not only is she literate and hyphenated, but also proficient in accounting, so that she has a professional skill that is enough to make a living.

Opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared, since Dong Mingjue has this potential, and Liu Quan and Zhang Mingli are lacking in skills, the preparation of the money bank used to "legally raise funds" will be handed over to this girl, Xia Nan made this decision in his heart.

He looked at the palatial mansion and said leisurely: "Since you want to be my shopkeeper, you must not move out and live too shabbyly, lest others say that I am unkind." This is your father-in-law's house, and he owes you a lot to them, so you still live in this house! If you give me as the treasurer, this house will let you live for as long as you want. ”

Dong Mingjue heard the affirmation of himself in his tone, and was very excited, and was about to kneel down to thank him, but was stopped by Xia Nan.

"I've knelt down several times, I just feel your sincerity. Follow me in the future, don't kneel and kowtow, just do a good job of errands. ”

Due to the excitement, Dong Mingjue's face turned crimson, and she replied excitedly: "The maid must do things for the master with her heart, please rest assured." ”

Xia Nan pointed at Liu Quan and Zhang Mingli: "Let me introduce you, this is Liu Quan, the head of my Tiannan Commercial Bank, and he will help me watch all my business; The one who tested you just now is Zhang Mingli, the deputy manager, and he is in charge of all the cotton cloth and soju trade in Guangzhou. If you don't understand anything about buying and selling, you can ask the two of them, especially Zhang Mingli, who is often in Guangzhou and is close. ”

Dong Mingjue hurriedly saluted: "I've seen Manager Liu, I've seen Deputy Manager Zhang, the servant is young and knowledgeable, and I ask the two managers to give me more advice in the future." ”

Liu Quan and Zhang Mingli said politely: "Everyone will do things for the master in the future, and they don't dare to give advice, so they just help each other." ”

Xia Nan looked at Dong Mingxue's flushed face and said with a smile: "Don't be too happy too early." Just now, Deputy Manager Zhang tested you, and I will test you again now, only if you do it, will you officially become the first female shopkeeper of my Tiannan Commercial Bank. ”

Dong Mingjue hurriedly bowed his head and replied, "Please ask the master to command." ”

"I'll give you a month, you close the branches in various parts of the bank, and give up all the previous silver and money exchange business, leaving only the general number in Guangzhou, and the silver in the spare parts of the branches in various places will also be shipped back to the general number. Then pick the shrewd and capable ones among all the guys and weed out the redundant. Whether the layoff person should pay the settling-in allowance or not, and how much, should be done according to the rules. In a month's time, I'm going to see a new bank. (To be continued.) )
