Embezzle case

[at dabao barn]

Mister took ling'er to dabao barn. This was the first time she got to ride a carriage.

Dabao barn is one of the biggest shops in dali for cosmetic it's reputation is no less than the imperial Palace, even the prince's have to cozy up to it.

The very first look could tell why a jewellery and cosmetic shop would have such a manly name.

[note : dabao is similar to "the big barn"]

When Chen ling appeared at the gate she stopped abruptly as she smelt a weard smell something like Ash smell.

[all looking at her expectantly]

Nothing said ling'er as she was moving hand shielding herself.

Master lead them in, a lady in white welcomed us. Master ordered her to ask yin to get the account books that are not calculated.

Mister: ling'er today's test is very simple, you have to organise and calculate the account book. What method you use will decide whether you pass or not. And don't forget the more you impress me the more points you get is that clear.

[hehe I sound so cool]

The lady in white and a young kid beside her came along with the books and placed them on the table front of ling'er. Both looked a bit tensed it wasn't obvious but it did not escape Chen ling's eyes she seems to have gotten used to being conscious all the time she hasn't let her guard down even for once since she left the hut. Oh that hurts why did the painful memory come back. Brother hua I miss you.. She controlled herself and started scanning the books in front of her.

[2 hrs later]

Master finished said ling'er upset

Wait wasn't it excited..?

Ling'er why do you look upset. It is a great achievement to finish all those calculations in such a short time.

Ling'er: yes, master I did finish but.. They don't seem to sum up

Mister: huh? What do you mean?

Ling' er: last year the jewellery that were imported costed 50000 yuan, they were sold to the ming House and governors House, the majistrate's House and to shen House. There were 22 jewellery in total 5 were sent to ming House, 2 to majistrate's House, 6 to 3 to governors House and 3 to shen House. Total 19 jewellery were sold but what happened to the remaining 3? Without even selling them dabao barn earned 50000 no profit no loss.. Its clearly a embezzlement case.

Mister: who dares to temper with the money under my supervision am I dead already [angry]

[snatch] let me see, oh! You are good this is a difficult method to calculate not many know this only prince and princesses in Palace and first rank officials learn this, even they find it difficult.

[close the book and slammed it on the table and said

Ling'er if not because of you I would have been fooled according to the book there are so many incidents if I am not wrong nearly 100000 yuan has been stolen from dabao barn in the last 5 years. Who has been stealing from me I thought all of them are loyal to me so when I came to inspect I did not recheck all the accounts..

Ling'er : master, I understand. Don't worry I will find this person, just give me some time..

[quarter past]

Ling'er : master please call all those who has access to the accounts and also if there is anyone who likes gambling.

Mister: I don't like people who gamble so there is no one.. [hinted towards the servant to comply with what ling'er says..] about the access to accounts only luli, yin, xiao yu. Luli and xiao yu are the ones who does the accounting. Yin is in charge of the keys to the locker. Mostly luli does the account she is very talanted only when she is sick or absent xiao yu does it.

All the three standing in unison

Ling'er : do you all know why you were called here?

Workers all together : no we don't.

Ling'er : [you obviously do] there are a lot of money that we're being stolen and not only that even the accounts have been tampered with and according to what I know only you three has access to the books would anyone of you like to explain this.

[this side of ling'er was completely new, she was modest but a threat and dominating aura could be felt. It was like she was invincible. It impressed the master. Actually it was meant to impress the master in the first place.]

Workers looking at each other:

Yin: I have nothing to do with this, even though I have access to these books I do not know accounting, my work is to take the books from one place to other and cleaning, luli sister can say better, she is the one who spends most of the time on accounts.

Mister: lulii..

Luli: yin what are you doing, master he is pushing the blame on to me and you [pointing to ling'er] we are all loyal to old Zhang who are you to interrogate us if you can't explain this we'll talk in the court.

Ling'er : I am ling'er, don't get worked up, I am just completing orders. [stern and cold]

Mister : luli be respectful

Ling'er did not really expect master to ask ling'er to be respectful looks like ling'er has made a great impact on Mister..

Xiao yu both of them said something so why are you silent

Xiao yu: huh.. [startled] a.. A I did not do anything [stammering] I only do it when luli is not available. [looks towards yin but gets ignored]

Luli: you.. You how could you xiao yu even you, I dare swere to hevens that I have nothing to do with the robbery..

[How will ling'er find the betrayer, who stole the money ]
