Chapter 549: Waiter on Duty (Two Chapters in One)

Yan Laoer came back from the Prince of Ying's Palace and sighed to Li Xuemei:

"It's true that it's easier to be an official if you have someone in the court, and easier to get things done if you have someone in the palace."

Li Xuemei glanced at him and waited for the next words.

"Xiaoer's father-in-law has already arranged everything. I just went there to go through the motions and let people know that there is such a person as me. Even the temporary nameplate for entering and leaving the palace was directly given to Xiaoer. Our daughter got an errand that day..."

"What errand?" Li Xuemei asked curiously.

"Buy firewood and charcoal from the Qi Family Charcoal Yard..."

...

Yan Yu: "Uncle Qi, the Yan Family Charcoal Yard is also ours, and the Qi Family Charcoal Yard is also ours. The business between our two families doesn't matter whose name is used. It's all fake. We get the same amount of money as the firewood and charcoal sold, not a penny less. This is the real way to get money in the pocket."

Qi Da was still confused. He and the villagers transported charcoal into the city early in the morning and brought it to the palace. Then he was taken here and there by the waiter. If no one asked him, he would just follow the waiter. If someone asked him, the waiter would introduce him and say that he was Boss Qi of the Qi Family Charcoal Yard.

Boss Qi?

Who?

How did he... become a boss...

Before he could figure it out, he entered a yard with abacus clacking. The waiter asked him to press his fingerprints and he pressed them. If he asked him to write his name, he... tried to draw it as beautifully as possible.

He heard Yan Er's name several times in the middle, but he looked left and right and didn't see the shadow of Xiao Er's father, so he... was at a loss.

Did he hear it wrong?

After that, several silver notes were stuffed into his pocket.

He was brought out by the waiter again.

This deal... is it a success?

The firewood and charcoal he brought were sold and he was paid in cash, but there was one bad thing, they were silver notes instead of silver, which felt light and fluttery, and he dared not touch them too much, for fear of accidentally damaging them.

"Qi Da, the palace is big, right? I told you that I almost got lost last time I came here, why are there so many rooms, one after another, it's okay for you to follow the waiter, the waiter has memorized it, you don't need to ask for directions when walking inside..."

Qi Da thought about it carefully and nodded, "It's big." He smiled innocently, "I didn't remember it either, I just went wherever the waiter went."

"What's wrong with your hand?" The person asking the question was startled, thinking that Qi Da was injured.

His fingers were red.

Qi Da looked at his hands and showed them to everyone: "I pressed my fingerprints."

Someone who had delivered charcoal to the palace exclaimed: "The bill is settled today? It usually takes a few days... This time we delivered more than usual."

"It's settled." Qi Da patted his chest and asked in confusion: "Why did it take a few days? Not enough money? I saw someone moving boxes to that yard, and when they opened them, they were all silver."

All the people in Xiaoan Village gathered around and asked:

"Qi Da, did you see it? How many boxes are there?"

"Qi Da, you are really open-minded, tell me, tell me."

...

"Yan Huaian."

"Here!" Yan Yu responded crisply.

"You know that today's payment is from the palace storage warehouse?"

"I know."

"That's good. Make up the remaining gap as soon as possible. Manager Wang has given you the job of firewood and charcoal. You must do your best..." The accountant lowered his head and saw the top of her head, and was silent.

He added, "If you don't understand something, come and ask me."

He hesitated for a moment, but still asked in a low voice, "When will your father come?"

Yan Yu raised his head and smiled before he spoke, "Please keep me in mind. The next one is the prefectural exam. If I pass, there will be the academy exam. If I don't pass... he will come after the exam. He dare not delay the work here any longer."

The accountant smiled. It was not up to them to decide whether to delay or not, but it was up to Wang Zongguan.

The old man helped to back him up, so what did he have to worry about?

This kid with the name of Yan Huaian was Wang Zongguan's favorite god-grandson. Everyone in the mansion knew it.

And they knew whether the one just now was the Qi family charcoal yard or the Yan family charcoal yard.

Don't say it, this kid is really smart.

Changing the name saved a lot of trouble.

"I just have a problem with my work, and I would like to ask you for your advice." Yan Yu stepped forward and said.

"Tell me." The accountant became interested.

Before counting and checking the goods, this guy is very capable and experienced, even though he is not tall and young.

Now he has a problem?

"I just went to the storage warehouse to check. If you bring in all the firewood and charcoal in the back, it can be loaded, but there is not much space left."

Yan Yu glanced at the face of the accountant, who was calm and unchanged.

"The palace purchases more than just firewood and charcoal, so what about the things in the back? I thought that although these things are purchased by the palace, they will eventually fall on the shoulders of the kind-hearted people.

For example, firewood and food will be damaged during transportation, which is a bit regrettable.

Given the situation outside, it is good to save every penny.

Why not determine the amount of each family's subscription and send it directly to them.

We don't need to occupy the storage warehouse, and there is one less road in the middle, which can also save some road consumption."

...

The accountant sent the little "Yan Huaian" away and went straight to the courtyard of eunuch Wang.

He told the whole story.

Wang Deshan listened with a smile and said, "Our little waiter is kind-hearted and can't bear to see people suffer. It's freezing cold, he has no roof over his head, he's thin, and he can't even eat enough...poor him!"

The accountant said carefully, "If she wants to do what she wants, each family needs to have a tacit understanding and decide on the amount to donate first, this..."

You know, the Crown Prince's Concubine was stuck here, so she couldn't push forward the disaster relief.

Therefore, the general manager Wang Deshan ordered the prince to assist the crown prince. In fact, the commander-in-chief was responsible for allocating relief matters. The first idea he gave to the crown prince was to directly skip this step and let the prince's palace purchase the crown prince first. supplies.

Their British palace is so poor!

But who calls the Crown Princess rich? The richness of the dowry is astounding!

Even the general accountant of the palace, who handled money every day, was fascinated by it and could not forget it for a long time.

Just talk about the Yan family, no, the Qi family charcoal farm sending charcoal to the warehouse today. He reported it here, and the prince concubine sent boxes of money directly.

As soon as the box was opened, the white flowers were shining brightly, it was so dazzling!

Manager Wang's grandson has no need to worry. The palace's storage warehouse can't accommodate it. He can find other places. He has money, but is he afraid that he can't find a place to put his things?

"Our errand is urgent and must be done with caution." Wang Gonggong changed the subject and added: "But this disaster relief is originally due to the kindness of the Crown Princess, and the prince's high righteousness and benevolence, never neglecting any good deeds." ...Since the child is willing, let her try to do it. If she does it well, she will be rewarded. If she does not do it well, there is our family. She is our grandson. If she messes up the job, she will be rewarded. Our family will take care of it for her.”

The accountant took a breath and hissed inwardly.

"She is still young after all. If she has some imperfections, please help remind her." Wang Deshan said slowly.

"Second Master Yan is extremely safe and orderly, making it hard for anyone to make mistakes." The accountant said seriously.

"You, as our family said, don't spoil her. Treat her the same way you treat others. Just point out her mistakes. Don't praise her when you do well. That child is the best at judging people's faces. If you are a little bit Smile, next time, she won't be afraid of you.

You are also very courageous and have many ideas. It is really difficult to manage. If you are in the hands of others, our family is really worried, that is, you...

Our family knows what the situation is with our family's accounts, and so does the prince. It's hard for you to work hard, so that our family can maintain this dignity. When you do errands, our family has always been at ease. "

The accountant's eyes were slightly red, his body was shaking a little, and even his voice was trembling: "It's all thanks to your support, father-in-law, otherwise I wouldn't be where I am today."

"My family... my family... I... will do my best!"

"Flowers that should be spent, provinces that should be saved..." Knowing the difficulty of keeping the accountant in the mansion, Wang Deshan sighed, and his tone became softer: "From now on, the prince, please give me some advice, and those shameless adults will never come back again." , let them come and go out as they please.”

"With your words, I feel relieved!" The accountant was almost moved to tears.

How difficult is it to be the accountant of the palace? Just look at his thinning hair... you'll know it all!

…

Wang Gonggong means to take two steps.

According to the plan, the palace still purchases the goods, but the order has been changed, and the transportation of large amounts of firewood, grain and other items will be temporarily put at the back.

Cotton, cloth and other items were brought to the front.

The day before Yan Laoer was nervously preparing for the exam, Xiao Yan Huaian received a new job.

Go to various governments to discuss the amount of relief subscriptions.

Yan Yu may not realize it herself, but she is becoming more and more like the uncle who teaches her through words and deeds.

Before speaking out his thoughts, Yan Yu actually had a plan.

It’s not like you suddenly have an idea that goes nowhere.

Therefore, when the general accountant heard what she said, the amazement in his eyes almost overflowed!

He subconsciously wanted to report to the prince.

The idea was abandoned for a moment.

We can't bother our father-in-law with everything. He has so many things to worry about and wears many hats.

Not only must he "help" the royal concubine, but the prince can't live without someone...

Think about it again and again in your heart.

He felt that Xiao Yan Huaian's idea was really a good one.

"Everyone, stop for now." He called to stop all the accountants who were working in the room.

"I have something to discuss with you all..."

…

After a less intense discussion among the accountants, a strategy was quickly decided upon.

Based on the opinions put forward by "Yan Huaian", slight changes were made and implemented on the same day.

All accountants put aside their other work for the time being.

First, list all the families in the city who responded to the Crown Princess’s donation for disaster relief.

According to official position, prestige, assets, tax status, etc., they are divided into three, six and nine grades.

Yan Yu's idea is simple and simple.

Since these families can't tell the difference themselves, then the most authoritative place, the British Prince's Palace, will make the difference for them.

What does it matter if it's right or wrong?

This table is for them to read and will not be leaked.

So what if it really leaks out? Guanzhou is a fiefdom of the King of England, with nobles and nobles, princes and grandsons. The Royal Palace has the confidence to not care what they think.

What's wrong with being a local emperor? If you should be domineering, be domineering!

What's most important now?

Is it time to worry about how much your family has and how little I have?

It’s disaster relief!

Draw the key points! ! !

Everything must revolve around this center, and everyone and everything must revolve around it.

This was obviously a good thing, but it was so stupid that Yan Yu was convinced.

The binning speed is very fast.

The grades are clear at a glance. Who is poor and who is rich? No one knows better than the accountant of the British Prince's Palace.

Not only do they manage the palace's internal accounts, they also check the income and expenditures of the fiefdoms under the King's name every year!

The frame is pulled and the binning is completed.

"It takes too long to collect all the relief materials at once. We can wait, but the victims can't wait. They are about to freeze to death and starve to death. People are dying almost every day. Several kind-hearted families in the city have started giving porridge on their own. But we are still procrastinating..." Yan Yu showed no stage fright and spoke clearly.

As long as she doesn't treat herself as a child, speaks clearly and does things clearly, others won't just look at her age.

The general accountant coughed.

Yan Yu understood immediately and turned the conversation away naturally: "It's faster to divide the donations into batches. Let's get the first batch of pledges first. For this first batch, no one else is needed. Our palace will go first."

The accountants were clear-minded and understood what she meant.

Nor did he care about her straightforward colloquial remarks.

It's not a fight, it's not chaos. Our palace will give you a look.

Negotiation, discussion, detailed consultation...what the hell.

Go straight for it!

"We don't have to do everything. Just give us whatever we have in hand." Yan Yu still acted a little, with a bit of the innocence of a child.

"Anyway, the victims lack everything. As long as the second and third batches come quickly, we can provide for them all."

…

Yan Yu finally concluded: "If we are faster here, the victims will suffer less. If we are an hour ahead, we may be able to save a life!"

The accountants looked at each other and reached a tacit agreement.

"Yan Huaian, go to these stores." The general accountant handed Yan Yu a few notes.

Yan Yu took a closer look and suddenly raised his head to look at the general accounting room.

The latter said with a straight face: "Be polite when you come, but don't be afraid. You are doing things for the palace, so don't let our family lose face. If they can catch up with the second batch, just catch up. If they can't catch up, forget it. No need." "Forcing."

He thought for a while and then said: "If I ask you how other places are, you don't need to say much, just excuse yourself and leave because you have errands to do."

Being able to be the general accountant of the British Prince's Palace and in charge of the Prince's money bag.

If the general accountant had no skills, how could he sit in this position?

In addition to ability, there is another indispensable factor, which is decision-making.

To be a good errand is to be a good errand, to put it simply, if you want to get things done, don't you have to ask your superiors about everything? When necessary, you must be able to make your own decisions.

If this little "Yan Huaian" dares to scheme, he will kill him!

…

Yan Yu came out of the palace gate and couldn't help but look back.

The few notes given to her by the general accounting office were all from officials in the city.

"Mr. Yan, where are we going?" the carriage driver of the palace asked, shrinking his neck.

This is the perk of being an errand in the palace, and you will be served by a special carriage when you go out.

It's not good to let Gouzhu drag her around the city anymore.

Although the sledge is faster, she now represents the face of the British Prince's Palace.

"Go to Magistrate Pang's house first." Yan Yu replied.

With one hand, Yan Yu jumped into the car neatly.

The coachman laughed, looking at the child's neatness.

But it saved him a lot of effort, and he didn't even need to set up the step stool to get into the car.

Please give me a monthly pass, please give me a monthly pass, please give me a monthly pass~!
