Jianghu I am the only one

Chapter 36 Punishment, Finance

Everyone cheered loudly. Obviously, from yesterday to today, although the brand new Ouyang Ye appeared in front of the gang less than two days ago, most people have already recognized his qualifications to succeed the gang leader.

Ouyang Ye put down his left hand, looked around the crowd, and said in a loud voice: "Brothers! Although I, Ouyang Ye, inherits the guild leader from my father, I also have my own ambitions! I don't want to talk too much, but I can do it here. I promise you one thing—after one year, the power of my Shenmu Gang will definitely double! If I can’t do it, I will abdicate and make way for the virtuous!”

Hearing these words, almost everyone in the No. [-] gang showed surprise.If it wasn't for the solemn scene, no one in the gang would dare to whisper to each other, and I'm afraid many people would discuss it.

And near Ouyang Ye, Chen Yan, Deng Kui, Ouyang Chang, and Tan Kang all showed surprise, and immediately looked at Ouyang Hu - they wanted to know if Ouyang Hu asked him to say this.

Seeing the surprise on Ouyang Hu's blushing face, they knew that this was not taught by Ouyang Hu, but by Ouyang Ye himself.

After being surprised, several people had different expressions.

Chen Yan looked at Ouyang Ye with a pensive expression, Ouyang Chang and Tan Kang frowned, but Deng Kui let out a sneer.

"The leader's words sound really encouraging, but if you don't do it after a year, is it true that you really want my Shenmu gang to change to another leader?"

Deng Kui's strange words came over, but Ouyang Ye didn't look at him at all, but looked around at the gang below, and swore with his palms up: "All the brothers present today can testify, if I, Ouyang Ye, violate this promise in the future, I will definitely Dismembered by knives!"

Hearing Ouyang Ye swear such a poisonous oath, all the gang members couldn't help being shocked.At the same time, Deng Kui, who was originally in a weak position and deserved sympathy, also had some bad opinions.

As for Deng Kui, after hearing such a poisonous oath, even if he wanted to refute Ouyang Ye, he couldn't say anything.

Immediately afterwards, Ouyang Ye said again: "Since I have succeeded as the leader of the gang, you brothers must obey my orders from now on! If anyone disobeys, or violates the rules, I will punish them with gang rules! Whether it is expulsion from the house, or three swords Six holes, no mercy!"

Hearing these words, the members of No. [-] gang couldn't help but tremble in their hearts.

At this moment, Ouyang Ye suddenly raised his voice again, shouting: "The former East Hall leader Deng Kui acted domineeringly, and he harbored resentment towards the leader of the sect. He also didn't understand what was going on. He was easily instigated by the traitor Tian Yunong and wanted to gather crowds to make trouble, although he failed. But sin is unforgivable!"

"From today onwards, I will go to the position of the head of the East Hall, demoted to an ordinary gang member, and enter the West Hall to guard the gate of the business! Deng Kui, are you not convinced?!"

At the end, Ouyang Ye cast his cold eyes on Deng Kui, as if as long as he said "no", he would kill him with a knife.

Deng Kui's face was flushed, and the word "dissatisfied" was about to come out of his mouth, but when he met Ouyang Ye's cold eyes, his heart suddenly trembled, an uncontrollable thought popped up, filling his heart Brain—this kid wants to kill me with an excuse!
Deng Kui knew that he had worked so hard as the head of the Shenmu Gang for so many years. Although he wanted to gather people to force the palace before, he didn't really do it.Therefore, even if Ouyang Ye wanted to kill him, there was no excuse.

But Ouyang Ye definitely wanted to kill him.

Therefore, no matter what, he couldn't give Ouyang Ye this excuse.

Wanting to understand this, Deng Kui gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! Keep the gate and guard the gate. I want to see how you will live up to your words in a year's time!"

After finishing speaking, Deng Kui showed pain on his face, but he moved too much when he said these words, which affected the injury of Broken Rib.

So, regardless of how other people looked, he asked a family member to support him and went straight back to his house.

Watching Deng Kui leave, Ouyang Ye didn't have much emotion.

The reason why he kept Deng Kui in the gang was not only because Deng Kui still had considerable influence in the gang, and he couldn't find a reason to kill him openly, but also because Deng Kui knew too much about the truth of the Shenmu Gang.

Therefore, at this stage, he must keep Deng Kui and keep an eye on him.

After a while, he completely controlled the Shenmu Gang and made various new changes in the Shenmu Gang. Deng Kui's influence in the gang would definitely decline a lot.

At that time, if Deng Kui could understand current affairs and be an honest gangster who guarded the gate, he could still survive.If you think about anything else, you will be courting death.

After Deng Kui left, the succession meeting did not last long. After Ouyang Ye appointed Li Qin as the deputy head of the East Hall and acted as the agent of the East Hall, he let the gang members disperse.

And Ouyang Ye went to Ouyang Hu's room with Chen Yan to do another very important thing - understand the financial situation of the Shenmu Gang.

As a gang leader, he can hand over the finances to others, but he must know what he knows.Otherwise, not to mention that he might be deceived by the person in charge of the finances, even if he wants to do something, he needs to understand the gang's financial resources before he can do it according to his ability.

Ouyang Hu lay back on the bed, while Chen Yan and Ouyang Ye sat beside the bed.

Chen Yanxian handed a copy of the ledger to Ouyang Ye, and said, "This is the ledger of the Bank of China Treasury, please read it sir."

Ouyang Ye didn't care about Chen Yan's slip of the tongue, and looked through the ledger after receiving it.

Although Ouyang Ye had never been in contact with the accounting industry in his previous life, he had heard of several bookkeeping methods.

After looking through it, Ouyang Ye found that although the account book was not a running account, it was by no means the more mature double-entry bookkeeping method in later generations. It should be a single-entry bookkeeping method.He can understand every financial record in the ledger, but it is difficult to see if there is any problem.

However, Ouyang Ye didn't want to check the accounts today, he just wanted to know the financial situation of the Shenmu Gang.

With Chen Yan at the side, he can ask if there is anything he doesn't understand.And with Ouyang Hu on the side, Chen Yan couldn't easily fool him.

In fact, after Ouyang Ye took over the account book, Chen Yan began to explain.

"The main industries of my Shenmu Gang are five lumber mills, with an average income of 3000 taels of silver per month. The second is a carpentry workshop in the west of the town, and two gambling halls in the town, with an average monthly income of 500 taels of silver. income."

"Again, the gang leader followed Tian Yunong's suggestion and started collecting protection fees from ordinary merchants in the town from the year before last. Because the number of ordinary merchants in the town fluctuates greatly, on average, they can only receive 200 taels of silver per month."

"So, normally, my Shenmu Gang has an average monthly income of three to four thousand taels. However, the monthly expenditure of the gang is also not small."

"The biggest one is the monthly money for the helpers, as well as the burning and burial money and various compensation fees after the death or injury. The latter is not only a lot of money, but also fluctuates greatly. So in general, not everyone There are monthly balances, and sometimes even losses.”
