Xu Damao’s business was on track and he got more and more money. Soon, it was almost time to distribute dividends, and the second uncle came to the door first. “Second uncle, come in quickly, Jingru, make tea for the second uncle, and make the good tea I brought back today for the second uncle.”
“Oh.” Qin Jingru responded and went to make tea immediately.
The second uncle sat down and said with a smile: “Damao, is it time for our business to be distributed?”
The two agreed before that Xu Damao was responsible for the sales, and the second uncle was responsible for purchasing rebar from the branch factory. The cooperation between the two was considered a tacit understanding.
Xu Damao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, “That’s a must. Even if you don’t come to me today, I plan to find you later. Come, let’s have a chat while drinking tea.”
Pour a cup of tea for the second uncle, Xu Damao got up and walked to the inner room, took out the briefcase, and then put the account book on the table.
“Uncle Second, this is the recent account book. Please take a closer look. If you have any questions, just ask me. I will explain it clearly to you.”
He reached out and signaled that Uncle Second could start checking the accounts. Xu Damao picked up the teacup and looked at it leisurely, with a righteous spirit, as if he would not make any false at all.
The second uncle was not polite to Xu Damao. He took out reading glasses and his small notebook from his pocket, which recorded the amount of rebar taken from each transaction from the branch, and used to compare it with Xu Damao’s account book.
In this way, the second uncle was guarding against Xu Damao’s fraud.
Xu Damao shook his head slightly, with a slight dissatisfaction in his tone.
“Second uncle, you can’t trust me, hey.”
“Haha, no, Damao, you’re so careless. I’m old and forgetful. If I didn’t write all these transactions in my notebook, I wouldn’t know how much rebar I went out today.”
The second uncle had already made a draft and was not afraid of Xu Damao’s extreme behavior.
