Rebirth of the pastoral landlady

Chapter 278 Making things difficult (one more)
After his gaze scanned Jin Xi's body, the old man's brows slightly furrowed, and then quickly widened.

"You are the successor chosen by Dong Wen's family? You look very young, how old are you this year?" The old man sat there, looked at Jin Xi, and suddenly asked.

"This is Master Xie from our Mingshan Pavilion." Manager Hu introduced Jin Xi with a bow, and he did not forget to cast a flattering smile at Manager Xie who was sitting there, and Manager Xie's eyes only fell On Jin Xi's body, ignore that Jin Xi is still standing.

This shopkeeper Xie really doesn't give face at all, Jin Xi thought to himself.

Regarding shopkeeper Xie, Wending mentioned two sentences in the letter, saying that he is the old shopkeeper who has been doing it since Mingshan Pavilion was first established. He is a veteran and upright person, but he is a bit too majestic, and he is very popular in restaurants. , but the xinxing is also extremely high.Wending reminded Jinxi in the letter that she should try not to go head-to-head with shopkeeper Xie Da, and it would be best if she could win her over.

What about old qualifications?Jin Xi is most jealous of those prickly people who rely on their elders to sell their elders, and rely on being relied on.Especially shopkeeper Xie, on an occasion like today, not to mention sitting in a row in terms of age, sitting firmly at the top, it should be the boss, not the shopkeeper.Shopkeeper Xie made it clear that he wanted to show off his power, and the other people knew it well, and they even colluded in advance.

Jin Xi looked at him, noticing the disdain and a little bit of anger in the old man's words, the smile on the corner of her mouth slowly retracted.Nodding his head, he said: "That's right, your former owner did entrust me with the full power of Mingshan Pavilion, as evidenced by the contract and the red mud seal of the leopard's head."

Jin Xi didn't answer his subsequent questions.

Shopkeeper Xie stared at Jin Xi, this little girl looked young, but her eyes were bright and energetic.Although she was born in the country, she came to such a luxurious restaurant and met such stewards, but there was no trace of panic on her face. She stood there with a calm atmosphere and a calm and confident demeanor.

Shopkeeper Xie couldn't help being a little surprised. When other people in the room saw this first collision, the little girl's aura didn't lose half a point. On the contrary, she seemed to have the sharpness of a sword that was about to be unsheathed.All of them quickly winked and warmly greeted Jin Xi to take a seat.

Jin Xi glanced at the position of shopkeeper Xie Da, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, shopkeeper Xie got up subconsciously, pulled his chair away, and casually greeted: "Come here and take a seat!"

Jin Xi smiled faintly, squinted at the top seat where shopkeeper Xie had sat, then looked around at everyone, and said, "I'm new here today, and I'm grateful to all of you for helping me out. Shopkeeper Xie Da is the oldest among you, I should respect it He, invite him to sit up. I'm young, so I can sit anywhere!"

Jin Xi said that she could sit wherever she wanted, but walked straight over, sat down firmly in the second seat, and smiled at everyone.

This time, not only shopkeeper Xie's expression turned slightly embarrassed, but everyone else in the room was secretly surprised.What the little girl said just now clearly meant who should sit at the top of the roll call indirectly. Moreover, she kept saying that she could sit anywhere, so she just sat in the second seat?Obviously, this little girl is very clear about the arrangement of the seats at the banquet!

Jin Xi watched the others find their own seats one after another, and smiled secretly.Although she is a girl, she grew up in the village since childhood.As for the mouth of the table, it is clear.

Because every time the old Liang's family held a banquet, they invited the village's Lizheng and those respected elders to come over. When was it not before the meal, a large group of men were arguing and arranging the seats?Every time I have to toss a small half stick of incense, if I read too much, everything becomes clear!
After everyone was seated, the two singers in the corner fiddled with the pipa lightly, adding a bit of background music to the conversation here. It wasn't noisy at all, but it really added a lot of flavor.

Shopkeeper Xie started to chat with Jin Xi about the restaurant affairs, generally speaking with the new owner, routinely reporting the general restaurant's related matters.From the running hall in the front to the purchase of ingredients in the large kitchen in the back, everything is explained in general.When Shopkeeper Xie was speaking, everyone else at the table was silent.

Jin Xi sat upright, listening intently, seldom interjecting, occasionally nodding, and only asking one or two questions about certain questions, all of which were on the key points of the question.

Shopkeeper Xie explained to Jinxi what she asked in detail, and was surprised again.Originally, he planned to move out of the restaurant to report these miscellaneous and tedious things, so that the new owner would be confused, and then he would find a question to ask her to ask her for advice, to see how embarrassed and embarrassing she was.

Unexpectedly, the new owner really seems to have listened to it, and the questions asked are all like that.

There was no room for the problems that he originally wanted to make things difficult, so he decided to hold back for the time being, observe and make further calculations.

Shopkeeper Xie's words came to an end, and Jin Xi picked up the tea bowl and flicked the tea leaves hanging on it. The tea leaves were one by one, as thin as embroidery needles, suspended in the green tea water, reflecting her slightly smiling mouth.

Want to scare me with these trivial things first, make me dizzy and retreat before I take over?Hmph, that's ridiculous.

Before coming to the county headquarters, during the few days when Jin Xi was at home, she was quite idle.The candles were kept burning every night, and the restaurant letters and account books brought back from shopkeeper Dai and Mr. Liu were almost torn apart by her.

From the semicolon management matters in the town, one can get a glimpse of the general operating system of the entire Mingshan Pavilion, as well as the financial management model.Jin Xi did her homework in advance, thank you shopkeeper, but still thinking of making things difficult for her?Is it overwhelmed?
Mr. Hu winked at the middle-aged man who looked like a scholar in a blue gown and sat opposite him.The middle-aged man smiled knowingly, coughed lightly, shook his wide sleeves and stood up.

He bowed slightly towards shopkeeper Xie and Jinxi, his eyes fell on Jinxi, and he said to Jinxi with a modest smile: "Ms. Wang is the accountant of the head office, this is the restaurant for nearly two quarters. The actual accounts of the company have not yet been handed over to the former owner Wen for review. The new owner is here today, so it is natural to ask the new owner to have a look and give advice."

Wang Xiucai, the accountant manager, said, took out a thick stack of account books from behind, and put it in front of Jin Xi.

Holding the teacup, Jin Xi glanced at the thick stack of account books in front of her, showing a little surprise, and slightly frowned.

Wang Xiucai, the manager of the accountant, has been paying attention to Jinxi's expression. Seeing Jinxi's surprised and embarrassed look, he is more and more sure that this country girl is born in an illiterate employer.In his concept, even if a country girl can read, she can at most write her own name.There are skills in what is an account and how to look at it.

If you don't understand these skills, you are simply reading from heaven.What's more, Wang Xiucai is still very confident about his accounting, because with him, he is so skillful in the accounts, Mingshan Pavilion and the Yamen pay taxes every year, and can leak a lot!Even shopkeeper Xie praised him a lot!
Thinking of this, Wang Xiucai couldn't help but turned his head and cast a satisfied expression at the other people on the table, and the other people on the table also lowered their heads, and Manager Hu and Manager Li, who purchased it, exchanged glances in private. Laughing, Shopkeeper Xie still sat there dignifiedly. Although he was happy to see this in his heart, he still had to try his best to maintain a dignified and fair look on his face.

Jin Xi took the expressions of these people into her eyes, deliberately made her frown deeper.

"You are now the owner of our Mingshan Pavilion. Naturally, you have to review and comment on these account books. For some omissions or inappropriate places, you have to ask the owner to make corrections in time, so that they will not affect our restaurant. Operation!" Shopkeeper Xie said from the side, raised his hand and pointed to the stack of account books piled up in front of Jin Xi, motioning Jin Xi to read them.

"There are so many account books, I won't be able to read them for a while, so bring them back to me, and I'll take them home and go through them slowly." Jin Xi smiled faintly and discussed.

"Bring it back, it proves that our new owner is so hardworking, and it is a blessing for us all!" Mr. Hu stood up and praised loudly, then changed his voice, and continued: "However, it will take a while for the wine and dishes to be served. , taking advantage of this spare time, the new owner can casually flip through a couple of pages and give us some pointers first, so that we can be educated earlier. Do you guys agree?"

"Okay, new owner, just take a look, and also evaluate Wang Xiucai's account, whether it is beautiful or not!" The short and fat procurement manager Li responded loudly to the manager Hu's words, and the shopkeeper Xie sat down. There, looking at Jin Xi with a half-smile, Wang Xiucai even stood there, cupping his hands at Jin Xi, pretending to be humble and asking for advice.

Manager Zhang, the waiter, rolled his eyes around and didn't express his opinion, but Chef Hong's eyes were filled with a bit of embarrassment.

Jin Xi sighed secretly, shaking her head slightly, these people really don't welcome her new employer, especially shopkeeper Xie, the disdain and anger in her eyes are even more obvious.Jin Xi thinks about it, thinking about it, thinking about it, no one can tolerate the restaurant she has worked so hard to take care of, the first leader retreats, the second leader definitely wants to be in the top position, and finally managed to make it through, but at this time a strange man suddenly parachuted in People come to manage everyone, and no one will obey easily.What's more, Jin Xi, the leader of the airborne, is still such a young girl!

Jin Xi collected her thoughts, smiled faintly, put down her teacup, put her finger on the account books in front of her, and said to everyone: "Well, since everyone has requested so strongly, Wang Xiucai personally delivered this thick stack of account books to me I heard that Wang Xiucai is knowledgeable and talented, and he can do exquisite accounts. I was born in the countryside, and my literacy is limited. I don’t dare to be a word of advice, but I have the right to look up to you.”

Although Wang Xiucai said "ashamed and ashamed." ’ However, the lower jaw was raised slightly, the wide sleeves were shaken, and the hands were behind the back, showing the unique arrogance of a literati.
