Chapter 200 Accounting

"Speaking of money, I have one more thing to calculate with you..."

Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian were sitting opposite each other on the Kang, suddenly looking mysterious. He turned his head and whispered.

When Jia Lian saw her like this, he knew that she was up to something evil, so he curled his lips and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it. There are no outsiders here, so why are you talking so much?"

Wang Xifeng rolled his eyes, and then said with a smile: "For the eldest master's funeral, the old lady gave me six thousand silver, my wife gave me three thousand, and the official also gave us four thousand, for a total of ten thousand." Three thousand taels of silver.

In addition to the fact that there are 3,780 taels of silver in the treasury over the East Cross Courtyard, the total is more than 16,000 taels..."

Wang Xifeng said, feeling a little proud, "I have calculated it before. In the past month, more than 7,000 taels of silver have been paid out from us, as well as various outstanding balances, and probably more About four thousand taels. Putting all these aside, there are still about five thousand taels of silver left in the treasury over there. How do you think of the remaining silver?"

Wang Xifeng naturally has She was so proud that even if she fully complied with Jia Mu's request to expand the scale of Jia She's funeral without anyone saying it was stingy, she would still be able to save a third of the budget given by her family!

It can be seen that there has always been a lot of money and money involved in doing such big things, and I don’t know how many people’s pockets have been enriched.

What she meant was that the money was saved by the couple themselves anyway, so it naturally belongs to them. After all, Jia She's funeral was so grand and all the money had been spent. I don't think Jia Mu and others would say anything.

After all, if someone else, such as the eldest wife, were to host Jia She's funeral, all the money would be spent and things might not go well.

This money is worth eating.

If she hadn’t had such a calculation in her heart, I’m afraid she wouldn’t have worked so hard in the past month, and maybe she herself would have thought about making profits from it...

Moreover, If they don't put this money into their own pockets, I'm afraid they will have no choice but to recharge it into the officialdom.

Since Jia Mu and others denied the fact of family separation, Rongguo Mansion could no longer be divided into the main courtyard and the east cross courtyard. Naturally, the "bank storehouse" in Dongkuaoyuan can only be banned. From now on, everyone can only eat from one pot, which is the official treasury of Rongguo Mansion.

Situations like Jia She’s funeral will never happen again in the future. In the future, all major events in the Rongguo Mansion can only be spent from the official treasury. It is no longer possible to say how much money will be used to do a specific thing.

How could Jia Lian not understand Wang Xifeng’s little thoughts? He smiled and said:"Take out more than a thousand taels of silver and return it to the official. Otherwise, who will believe you when you say you have just used up the silver.

After this incident, we, the master and his wife, will never have any more The difference between here and there, everything should be discussed.

It’s not an exaggeration to have individual selfishness, but it’s better to keep everyone’s face.”

/> There were only a few thousand taels left. It was not that Jia She’s funeral arrangements only cost more than eleven thousand in total, but that when Jia She was seriously ill, they were already preparing coffins and other things. At that time, the money on both sides was still separate, so money was paid out from the bank in Dongkuaoyuan. That part of the expenditure was not included in the subsequent accounts.

Wang Xifeng naturally understood what Jia Lian meant. She nodded with a smile and was very satisfied with Jia Lian's decision. What she was worried about before was that Jia Lian was too upright and the money he had to spend would be given away for everyone to spend together!

Feeling satisfied, she added: "There could have been more money left, but it wasn't because you were indulgent and let the people below you get greedy. Otherwise, maybe the remaining money would still be there. I can get two thousand more!"

In order to get things done well and spend as little money as possible, Wang Xifeng has been keeping an eye on everything in the past month. Under her fiery eyes, No one should want to lie wantonly and spend too much money.

But there are always some greedy people, and Wang Xifeng himself also discovered some clues.

If she had helped Mrs. Wang take care of the house in the past, she would certainly not have held on to her, because she herself wanted to make profits from it, so how could she not give some sweeteners to her subordinates? ?

But this time, because she knew that the rest would be hers, she was different.

She was very angry and wanted to arrest two typical examples to serve as a warning to the monkeys, but Jia Lian stopped her, letting those minions make a lot of money in her hands. Maybe those people were complacent in thinking she didn't notice, which made her unhappy just thinking about it.

Listening to Wang Xifeng talking about this, Jia Lian also felt a little coldness on his face, and then he actually said: "Don't worry, it's not easy for them to get this money. As the saying goes, if you don't want to let go of your children, you won't be able to get rid of them." Wolf, just wait and see."

When Wang Xifeng heard this, he knew that Jia Lian really had a plan in mind, and hurriedly said: "I listen to you, and I have already written down those people with unclean hands and feet. Now, Ping'er has also asked Ping'er to keep track of all the withdrawals. As long as he is willing to check, he will definitely not miss a single one."

The couple looked at each other and suddenly laughed. At this moment, they finally I feel that the two sides are the same kind of people...

"Second Master, I sent someone to tell Second Master to go to the inner study."

I heard the little girl outside Wang Xifeng immediately said: "The food will be served soon, eat someGo again. "

Jia Lian shook his head, stood up, and warned: "For the remaining one thousand taels of silver, you should tell your wife as soon as possible, and then have someone send it to the official for registration.

Just in time, I thought that everyone in the family had worked hard for the funeral of the master. Now that the matter is over, it would be interesting to reward the three armies.

You send back the remaining silver so that I can propose this matter to them. Although we can also provide this money ourselves, it always seems as if we are deliberately trying to win people's hearts. Therefore, it is only legitimate to give money from the official to reward everyone, and the master and his wife have no reason to refuse. "

When Wang Xifeng heard this, he couldn't help but smile.

He is so shrewd as to be heartless. In this way, it's not that the money has just been sent back. You can get it back again, and you can earn back your reputation without having to pay any extra money.

Therefore, looking at Jia Lian’s eyes full of smiles, those who have no conscience must have learned from themselves!

　…

At night, everyone in the Rongguo Mansion was really happy.

In the courtyard in front of the steward’s room, Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian, A total of ten baskets of money were carried to reward the people of Rongguo Mansion.

Everyone in Rongguo Mansion, as long as they are on duty, whether they are maids, servants, slaves or women, everyone Everyone will be rewarded with two months' worth of money.

In addition, those who have contributed during the funeral will be rewarded based on their performance in the previous month.

The generous rewards made hundreds of people in Rongguo Mansion excited. Those who had not received the rewards rushed towards the steward's room one by one, for fear that they would not be able to receive it if they were too late.

Already Naturally, those who received it were "singing praises" and running around to tell each other, and there was a lot of discussion.

"Second Master Lian and Second Grandma Lian were so generous and kind, and everyone was rewarded with extra monthly money. Not to mention, many of those who worked at the elder’s funeral received double rewards! "

"Double portion is nothing, there are still people who get three portions! I heard that Caixia's mother in the wife's house accidentally cut her finger because she was rushing to cut her mourning scarf during the first seven days of her life. The second mistress even gave her an extra three ounces of money..."

" What do you mean, that young man from the Zhang Cai family, because when he was building the eldest master’s tomb, a pine tree that was cut down almost broke his leg. At that time, the second master rewarded him with money to visit the doctor. Not to mention, he had just rewarded him separately. Gave him eight ounces of money. "

"And there's more..."

"What do you know? In fact, the reason why the second master and second grandma are so generous today is not just for the sake of the master.thing, and the second master successfully ascended the throne... I heard that the second grandma was about to be crowned, so the second master and the second grandma were happy, so that we slaves also got the blessing! "

"That's it, let's just say... It's a pity that the second master and the second grandma are both in Xiaozhong, otherwise we should really celebrate and celebrate..."

One tael of silver It is more valuable than a ping of money, and a ping of money is worth a thousand cash.

According to the monthly money system of the Jia Mansion, the monthly money for a young servant is usually five hundred, and the monthly money for a long-term attendant and servant to protect the courtyard is about eight hundred. About a hundred.

In other words, those who have received a few ounces of money or even more than a dozen ounces of money are suddenly equivalent to receiving half a year’s worth of monthly income. How can they be unhappy?

In this way, those who have received generous rewards are naturally grateful to Jia Lian and the two of them, and they say good things to everyone they meet.

Those who have not received generous rewards feel regretful and hate themselves deeply. Why didn't you try your best to behave in front of the second master and the second grandma before? In that case, maybe they would also get a share of the heavy reward.

Next time, if something happens again, you must be at the forefront!
