Blake Tang was a little confused when she heard this, as she was bad at naming. "Then the boys stand on the left and the girls stand on the right." The group split into two.
"How about this, there are so many of you, and I don't have any good names for you. Julian Du, you should still go by your original name. Your parents gave you such a good name, so you should pass on your Du family's surname. The other boys can be called Tang Yi to Tang Shisi, and the girls can be called Qinqi Shuhuashi Jiuhua Mingxiang, how about that?"
As expected, in Blake Tang's mind, it doesn't matter what kind of man he is, but his daughter must be pampered, and he is partial to even the name she gives her.
But Julian Du and the others didn't know that when they saw him naming everyone, and there was a Tang surname, they immediately became happy. The girls immediately assigned names and then knelt down and said, "Thank you, Brother Lu."
"Hurry up, get up. We are all family now. We don't need to care about these things. I am the only son in the family. I am very happy to have so many brothers and sisters like you here today."
"Julian Du, it's getting late. I have to go home. My mother is at home. I bought some pens, ink, paper and inkstone. Let's have everyone take a bath today. You can sort out the clothes and bedding. Then, as we said before, teach them to read and write. I'll leave everything to you. If you have anything, go to Xiangmanlou to find Manager Liu. I'll tell him everything."
"Okay, Brother Lu, go home without any worries."
Blake Tang went out and turned to Xiangmanlou. It was past noon and there were not many customers in Xiangmanlou.
She went straight to Shopkeeper Liu and said, "Uncle Liu, I rented a house in town, and there are some orphans living there. I have arranged everything for them, but I don't live in town, and I'm afraid they won't be able to find anyone if they have any urgent matters, so I told them to come to Xiangmanlou to find you if they have any problems. Please help me take care of them."
"Okay, Lu kid, start doing good things now. I know, don't worry."
"Not really, I just encountered them and helped them temporarily."
"Okay, I understand. Go up and find the boss."
Blake Tang went to the accounting office and knocked on the door gently. "Come in." "Blake Tang is here. Come and take a look at the account books for the past few days."
Blake Tang walked up to look at the account book on the table. It was too complicated and hard to understand. Celia Liu saw his frown and asked, "What? You don't understand?" Blake Tang was also a woman. She had met Celia Liu several times and they had a cooperative relationship. Naturally, she regarded Celia Liu as a friend. So her attitude became casual.
"Sister Liu, your accounts are too difficult to handle. It must be a headache to check them every day." Celia Liu immediately grasped the essence of her words.
"Your account? Isn't this how everyone does their accounting? Do you have any other way of doing it?" Blake Tang also felt that he had said something wrong.
But seeing Celia Liu's phoenix eyes staring at her, making her shy, she couldn't tell a lie.
"Yes, Sister Liu, please give me paper and pen."
Turning to a page of Xiangmanlou's account book, Celia Liu watched her draw some boxes, then write some words in the boxes, and then write in the small box below.
She recognized the words on top, such as borrow, loan, and payment, but she didn't recognize the words in the small box below. They looked simple, but she didn't know what they meant.
As Blake Tang was writing, he smelled a faint floral fragrance, which made him feel extremely comfortable and relaxed.
Celia Liu didn’t quite understand what was going on and wanted to take a closer look, and before she knew it she was approaching Blake Tang Station.
While Blake Tang was calculating the bills, he thought to himself, "The young lady smells so good, I really can't stand it."
When Celia Liu reacted, she was already standing very close to Blake Tang. She saw Blake Tang's ears getting redder and redder. She wanted to laugh again. How could this person be so shy?
Blake Tang finally figured it out, he let out a sigh of relief, quickly stood up from the chair and took a big step back.
"Sister Liu, please sit down. I will tell you about this account book." Celia Liu was not polite and sat down directly. There was still some warmth on the chair.
She was also a little embarrassed and quickly changed the subject.
"Okay, this looks quite simple. Please explain it to me in detail."
Blake Tang immediately explained the meaning of the frame and told Celia Liu the Arabic numerals 0-9.
Celia Liu looked at the watch carefully and thought about it.
"How do you know this number?"
"My father taught me this before. I didn't know no one used this before. It's just right to keep it as our secret. If we do the accounting this way, people who come to steal the account book won't be able to understand what it means." Blake Tangzhu made a desperate move and there was no evidence to prove his mistake.
"Really? This method of accounting is simple, but it is easy to be changed by others."
As expected of Celia Liu, who came from a merchant family, she saw the crux of the problem immediately. Blake Tang pointed to the end of the form she had made.
"So I still think that these balances and totals should still be counted using the normal method."
Celia Liu stared at her and said, "Then we are the only two people who know how to do the accounting in this way. Where can I find an accountant to do the accounting?"
Blake Tang was embarrassed. She hadn't thought about it that much just now. "Sister Liu, how about we do it the same way you did before?"
"You want me to leave such a good method aside and use that troublesome and complicated one?"
"Then what do you think we should do, Sister Liu?"
Celia Liu smiled in her heart, but she still looked serious on the surface, "How about this, you come to be my accountant. Originally, this restaurant is a cooperation between the two of us, and I feel relieved if you do it."
Blake Tang had no words to express her pain. How could she have gotten herself into trouble? She was not an accounting major, her major was handling swords and guns.
"Okay, sister Liu, let's do it together. You take the lead and I'll assist you, okay? Sister, we still have to teach the accountant in the future. Once he gets the hang of it, we can relax a little."
Oh my, why is this the same as her little baby acting like a spoiled child.
"Okay, but you have to come more often. I have a lot to do, so my personal maid is taking care of Xiaobao at home now."
"I understand." Blake Tang almost forgot that she was a mother. Anyway, she would have a share of the restaurant's profits, okay.
"By the way, Blake Tang, are there people growing vegetables in Shanglong Village?"
"The side dishes we usually eat are all grown by ourselves, but there are no vegetable farmers!"
"Then can you think of a solution? I'm competing with Baiweilou across the street for vegetables, and the vegetable farmers are raising the prices, which is also a troublesome matter."
"But Sister Liu, even if we let them plant now, it will take some time before we can harvest the vegetables."
"I'm not in a hurry at this moment. I just want to avoid being controlled by vegetable farmers in the future."
"Well, Sister Liu, I'll go talk to the head of the village. If we can't come to an agreement, I'll plant it for you myself."
"How much can you grow yourself? My restaurant consumes a lot every day, and I'm counting on you to help me with the accounting."
"Anyway, sister, you don't have to worry about this. I'll find a way."
