Chapter 359: Being Short Has Its Advantages
After a few days of peace in the small fishing village, one night, bursts of sad cries suddenly rang out in the middle of the night.
The next day, everyone in the village knew that Grandma Lian Yue had passed away.
Everyone knew that Lian Yue was the only one who could take care of things in the family, so all the people who knew him came over to help.
Jiang Wan's family didn't go to help because they weren't that close yet. But she brought a generous gift.
One or two taels of silver is still quite a lot of money in the village.
Because of the incident involving Grandma Lian Yue, the village was quiet for a while. It was not until half a month later when a child was born that the village regained its former bustle.
Counting the days, the Chinese New Year is only half a month away.
Jiang Wan thought that the two families would definitely celebrate the New Year together, so she had to go to the city to do some shopping.
This time she didn't bring Baozhu and Anan because they were sent to the dark room.
Both girls haven't been studying well recently. One cheated and the other helped cheat, and they were both punished.
When it comes to studying, Jiang Wan doesn't dare to provoke her mother. She can only wait until her mother calms down before saying something nice to her.
It’s better to escape now.
Jiang Wan went into the city and headed straight for the business.
The store has the most complete selection of things to buy, and it’s a good time for her to check the accounts.
Although Shopkeeper Qin seems to be a reliable person, there are more than one person in the company, so it would be more reassuring if he were more diligent and keep an eye on things himself.
As soon as she entered the company, she was invited to the third floor by the enthusiastic staff. This floor was usually used to entertain distinguished guests and was also the company's own office.
The third floor is the dream of all the partners.
"Brother Xiaoliang, who was that person who just went upstairs? Why did he go straight upstairs? Brother Fei and the others are so enthusiastic."
"This is the little boss I told you about before."
Xiaoliang was wiping the shelves in the shop while arranging the goods.
"You've only been here for a short time, so you don't know the young boss. Get to know him now, and be more enthusiastic when you see him next time, so as not to offend him."
He is an old employee of the company. When the young boss first came, many people were dissatisfied with her and almost resigned. They were also severely scolded by Manager Qin for half an hour.
From then on, everyone was respectful when they saw the boss.
Xiaoliang feels scared every time he thinks about it now.
"Little Wei? Did you hear what I told you?"
Xu Wei nodded and said that he had taken note of it.
He still remembered the appearance of the young boss. Although she didn't look like she was old enough, she was almost the same height.
Little girls like this are the easiest to coax.
He likes girls like this the most: girls who are rich, beautiful and easy to fool.
Because he had something to hide, Xu Wei switched jobs with the stair cleaner.
I thought someone would come down soon, but in the end, no one showed up after waiting for a long time.
He polished the stairs until they were shiny.
Finally, the cargo was unloaded at the gate and he had to go and work with them.
At this time, Jiang Wan was still flipping through the account books.
Because the writing habit here is to write from top to bottom, and the bookkeepers have a high error rate in their handwriting, sometimes there is a pool of ink, sometimes there is a line, which is very straining to her eyes.
It's so tiring to watch and calculate in your mind at the same time.
It took Jiang Wan about half an hour to finish reading the account.
The cashier at the side did not dare to sit down and stood for half an hour, the cold sweat on his back soaking his clothes.
"I have checked these account books, and there is nothing wrong with them. But Mr. Yu, you need to correct your writing habits. Keep the books clean and tidy, and the handwriting must be clear and neat."
"Okay, okay, I will definitely change it!"
Jiang Wan flipped through the other lists, and seeing nothing better to do, she went downstairs to look for the shopkeeper Qin.
I walked to the workshop at the back and saw Manager Qin training someone as soon as I entered.
"How many times have I told you that the oysters used to make oyster sauce must be fresh! You all sounded nice when you agreed, but you were careless when you did it? Who sent and received this batch of oysters?"
The group of people being scolded looked at each other and pointed at a woman in her early thirties.
"Liang Qiumei!!"
"It's not me!"
Liang Qiumei, whose name was called, looked at the people around her in shock.
"I received a batch of oysters today, but I checked them when I received them and signed for them only because they were fresh!"
Shopkeeper Qin waved to the clerk beside him expressionlessly, and the clerk immediately handed him the daily delivery book.
"You signed this, and the problem is with this batch of goods. Tell me what to do."
Liang Qiumei took the booklet and took a look at it, and her heart suddenly sank.
The time and quantity of the batch of oysters she signed matched the batch with problems.
Nearly 500 kilograms of oysters, almost all of them went bad. How much money will this loss cost?
She finally became the manager of Room B.
"Shopkeeper Qin, if this is my fault, I'm willing to pay for it. But when I checked, they were all fresh."
This is what Liang Qiumei couldn't figure out.
Jiang Wan listened for a while and almost understood the whole story.
She didn't go out immediately, but still hid behind the pillar and looked at the group of people carefully.
Almost everyone was ordered to lower their heads, but Jiang Wan was much shorter than them and could see the expressions of most of them as they lowered their heads.
The people in the front row who were most visible. When Liang Qiumei mentioned the need for compensation, two of them tilted their heads slightly to look at each other, then raised their lips.
If the cat hadn't been so annoyed, she would have eaten those baskets of stinky oysters.
"Storekeeper Qin."
Shopkeeper Qin, who was filled with anger, immediately stopped what he was about to say and turned around to greet him.
"Miss Jiang! You are here..."
He didn't know when Jiang Wan came, nor how much Jiang Wan heard. He felt embarrassed when he thought about such a big problem that had occurred under his management.
Lord Qin and Miss Jiang trusted him so much that they handed over all the affairs of the workshop to him. He was really ashamed.
"Shopkeeper Qin, I just listened for a while. You only said that this batch of oysters was received by Liang Qiumei, but is there any record of who delivered them?"
"Of course there is."
Shopkeeper Qin took the booklet and turned it over to Jiang Wan. It said that it was sent by villagers from a village called Shili Village.
"It has names and addresses on it. Let's send someone to investigate first. We can't just pin the blame on Liang Qiumei based on these few words."
Jiang Wan's real intention was not here. She put the booklet back and walked to one of the people who had just laughed.
"Manager Liang, I saw her standing with you just now. Is she the person you brought with you?"
Liang Qiumei wiped her tears and nodded.
"This is Hu Yun, the deputy manager of our B room. She was working during the inspection. I was the one who inspected the goods and signed the documents. It has nothing to do with her."
Jiang Wan nodded and said nothing more.
"Then let's find someone to investigate Shili Village first. Now let's get to work."
Jiang Wan took the shopkeeper Qin and went to the third floor in front.
"Miss Jiang, that Hu Yun..."
"Find someone to secretly investigate Hu Yun..."
They both spoke at almost the same time, paused for a moment, and then started laughing again.
