Chapter 13 Grasp the Handle (Part 2)
Zhang Huan's desire to get to the bottom of the matter became stronger. He smiled at Deacon Qin and said, "I want to see the stubs that the Zhang family approved for more than ten thousand yuan from September to December last year. Please ask Deacon Qin to bring it to me."
Deacon Qin looked embarrassed, but he didn't dare to refuse. He hesitated for a long time before he slowly left. The room was very quiet, with only Zhang Huan and the maid behind him. At this time, Zhang Huan suddenly felt the maid approaching him a little, and his soft body was almost pressed against his back and rubbing his neck for him.
Zhang Huan waved his hand gently and said to her in a gentle tone: "Thank you, but I don't need to press it now. I will see the Zhang family's secrets later. It's not convenient for the girl to be present, please go out!"
"Yes!" The maid's face turned red, she lifted her skirt and lowered her head and ran out.
After waiting for almost a quarter of an hour, he heard a lot of footsteps outside the door. Then he saw Deacon Qin coming slowly with a big notebook. He saw that Zhang Huan was the only one in the room. He was stunned for a moment and apologized: "It's hard to find it over time, so I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
Zhang Huan was too lazy to tell him, so he took the big notebook and looked at it. This was the expenditure approval stub for last year's year. It was neatly posted on the Zhang family's payment approval stub, with Zhang Ruofeng's signature on it, and the approval stubs were arranged by number.
"What about the approval order details! Why don't there?" Zhang Huan wanted the use details attached to the approval order, but this clip was just a subscription order, which did not explain any problem.
"When I replied to the young master, the details involved the customer's secrets. We all industries dare not take them, so we usually return them to the customer. However, some approval forms are simply written for purpose, so you may wish to refer to them."
Zhang Huan turned another page, and it turns out that some of the approval forms have simple uses, such as building restaurants in Chang'an and disaster relief in Hedong, but the most common uses are "for the head of the family". That's it. There are only a dozen approval forms that say the purpose is, and most of the approval forms say "see details for the purpose". Naturally, the details are in the hands of Manager Yang.
Zhang Huan was very disappointed. What was the difference between this and reading that account? Before he knew it, he turned to early October last year. He was suddenly stunned. Every page in the clip was covered with three lines and nine approval orders, but this page only had eight, one missing, and it happened to be in the middle. Zhang Huan looked carefully several times, and it turned out that the approval order of 400,000 yuan was gone.
"What's going on?" Zhang Huan pointed to the blank space and asked Deacon Qin coldly.
Deacon Qin's eyes were panicked, and he immediately waved his hand and said, "I don't know about this!"
"you do not know?"
Zhang Huan stared at his eyes and said slowly after a long time, "Then go and call you Lord Tan!"
After a moment, Master Tan rushed over, "Mr. Zhang, what happened?" Master Tan's heart was "sudden!" Seeing the black clips spread out on the case table, he immediately understood and glared at Deacon Qin in anger. He would avoid things and push himself out.
"Young Master Zhang, what's the matter with Deacon Qin offended you? Just say that I'll punish him!"
"Deacon Qin did not offend me, but Baiyexing disappointed me!"
Speaking of this, Zhang Huan slammed the table with a heavy blow and said sternly: "I'll ask you, my Zhang family has entrusted the money to Baiyexing, but you have embezzled the Zhang family's 400,000 chunks of money. What are you going to explain?"
Lord Tan was so scared that he waved his hands repeatedly, "Young Master, don't scare me. We, Baiyexing, have always been responsible for our business and never dared to harm the interests of our customers, let alone the Zhang family, which is the backend of our Baiyexing."
"Mainly management?" Zhang Huan sneered, "Then calculate the income and expenditure of last year for me, and calculate it according to this batch of orders, adding and subtracting me one by one. Can you guarantee that the penny is good or bad?"
"this....."
Lord Tan stared at the gap in a daze, his face pale, and without approval orders, he did have 400,000 yuan short of money, but he couldn't tell the truth. He hesitated for a long time, and he gritted his teeth and said slowly: "Young Master, our Baiye Industry has been trustworthy for decades, and we have been dealing with the Zhang family for decades, and we have never made any mistakes. The young master made this conclusion just one day after taking office. It's too arbitrary!"
Zhang Huan shook his head gently, with a hint of pity in his tone, "Do you know why the head of the family asked me to take charge of the account? And for only half a year, it was because I found that I had 400,000 guan short of money. I specially ordered me to find out the matter. Now I know the reason. It turned out that it was swallowed up by your all-in-one industry, okay! This matter can be decided, and the head of the family is here, so you can explain it to him!"
After saying that, he got up and walked out with great strides. Master Tan’s face turned green. He hugged Zhang Huan’s waist from behind and said in panic: “Young Master, please calm down. There is a reason for this matter. Let me tell you slowly!”
Zhang Huan stopped, slowly turned around, stared at his eyes, and smiled with a slight sarcastic look: "This matter? What is this matter? I think you should tell the truth!"
It was like a bucket of ice water pouring down from the beginning. Tan Dongzhu stood there staggeringly. He knew that he had been fooled. For a moment, countless thoughts turned into his mind, and he faintly realized that all the actions of the industry were about to fall into a big trouble, and it was an internal strife of the Zhang family.
Do you say it or not? On one side is Zhang Ruofeng, while on the other side is Zhang Shangshu. Tan Dongzhu lowered his head in pain. Zhang Huan saw it. He stepped forward and patted his shoulder and smiled, "Don't worry, if things are big, I will naturally be deaf and dumb, but I don't want to be a fool. I want to know this. This is just a big expense from the Zhang family. You just put money on your own, so why worry?"
I don’t know if it was Zhang Huan’s words that moved him or if he thought of Zhang Shangshu’s letter, Tan Dongzhu finally sighed and whispered: “The third master of your Zhang family came yesterday. He also pointed out that he wanted to read this account. After he left, we found that the approval form of 400,000 yuan was missing.”
"Three heads?" Zhang Huan's eyes slowly narrowed into a slit. Now all the suspicion was connected in a line. It was suddenly understood that Manager Yang made two accounts to hide the place of 400,000 yuan of money. The money was taken away by Zhang Ruofeng. If he did not take over, Manager Zhao would not dare to say anything. In a few years, the matter would be left alone, but he took over again. Therefore, Zhang Ruofeng was panicked. Judging from the fact that the approval form in the counter was torn away, I am afraid that Manager Yang's disappearance was also related to him.
However, there is one thing that makes Zhang Huan puzzled. Since Zhang Ruofeng has been in the Zhang Mansion for nearly ten years, no one has supervised him. If he wants to be greedy for money, it should be extremely easy. It will be fine. Why did he withdraw money at one time and do it so mysteriously? Is there anything hidden in it that is ungrateful?
"Then what is the detailed content on this approval form? I think you should still remember it? Who took the money away? Where did you end up?"
Master Tan smiled bitterly, "There is only the word 'expenditure' on the approval form. The specific details are in the hands of Manager Yang. At that time, your third master asked to issue a flying ticket. Because the amount of money is huge, we specially transferred money from Chengdu and Chang'an. The money was later taken away at the Guangling County branch and transported it to a fleet. We don't know where it ends up!"
Speaking of this, a hint of panic flashed in Tan Dongzhu's eyes, and his expression immediately returned to normal.
Zhang Huan saw it, he picked up the teacup and took a sip, staring at the other party coldly, waiting for his passage. The atmosphere in the room was very depressing, and the sweat on Tan Dongzhu's forehead gradually rolled down his face.
Finally, he finally sighed and said in a low voice, "When the ship arrived at Xunyang County, we found that there were military ship guards, so we didn't dare to follow him anymore."
Zhang Huan put down the teacup, he stood up and smiled slightly, "I understand, thank you for your reception!" Then he called General Manager Qian and left.
After watching the carriage disappear, Deacon Qin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said with lingering fear: "This person is so awesome!"
Tan Dongzhu shook his head and sighed: "Women are seduced but not stupid. If they use their wrists, they will be leniency and strict. If I am Zhang Ruohao, I should make this son the heir to the head of the family. What a pity! He is just a concubine."

The carriage walked another mile along the river. Seeing that the Yang family's gate was already far away, Zhang Huan jumped out of the carriage and waved his hand and said, "Old Qian, if you have something to do, go back first! I can go alone with the Yang family."
Mr. Qian was stunned. He didn't say anything long ago. He asked when he arrived at the door. He was about to persevere, but suddenly he thought about it and laughed: "I really have something to do. Since the young master doesn't let me accompany me, I will go back first."
After saying that, he didn't dare to look at Zhang Huan's eyes and hurriedly urged the groom to turn around. Zhang Huan kept watching his back disappear, then he sneered softly, "I want to kill someone with my own hand, go dream!"
Zhang Huan didn't enter the door, so he simply sat on a big rock by the river, staring at the river water in a daze. He had slowly figured it out. It would never be a coincidence that the head of the family asked him to be responsible for the approval of income and expenditure. He must have heard some news and was not easy to turn against his brothers, so he let his son, who was very little involved in the family, take power for half a year, and then ordered the Qian Manager to intervene in the matter. Manager Sun even stuffed the bulk account to himself. Then Manager Zhao invited him to dinner, and then deliberately leaked some secrets. It was very likely that they were arranged by Manager Qian. Of course, Manager Qian was just a dog, and the family advocated Ruohao was the real behind-the-scenes planner.
Zhang Huan seemed to see Zhang Ruohao's silver hair fluttering in the river, with a scheming smile on his face. Zhang Huan remembered what Tan Dongzhu said last time. The money was actually escorted by the army. It seemed that this matter was not small, and it would even involve the struggle between several families. Since that is the case, why should I go to this muddy water stupidly?
He stood up and stretched his waist long, picked up a flat stone and flew a few water floats. The waves were rippling, as if he had to mess up Zhang Ruohao's silver hair. Zhang Huan smiled at the sky, "I'll just open my mouth if I asked me to check the account. Why bother with others? I, Zhang Qubing, is that easy to use?"
