Beautiful beauties in the 80s courtyard

Chapter 185 I'll Give You a Chance to Tell the Truth

Lu Qiaoge took the tickets and flipped through them one by one.

Then I looked at the accounts in the register. There were detailed accounts and general ledgers, and each item was recorded very clearly.

Her penmanship is also good, and her Arabic numerals are beautiful.

It's a pity that someone with this kind of personality is really not suitable for the finance department.

Deputy Director Huang was somewhat anxious. Without a doubt, it was Qiao Ge's oversight; she had trusted the people in the finance department too much. She should have asked for a receipt after reconciling the accounts.

The Xiangyang Food Factory had such a big problem on its first reconciliation. Even if the neighborhood committee tried to cover it up, the people at the department store would still go around telling everyone.

Old Huang and Old Hu thought the same thing: they felt they had been too presumptuous and too laissez-faire. Qiao Ge was young and inexperienced, but they were not. How could they ignore her? It was their responsibility.

But what's done is done, and blaming anyone won't change anything.

The important question is, what should we do with this money now?
If you want this payment, you have to tell the department store the truth. If they acknowledge the payment, then you can calculate the amount based on the receipt they have. But if they don't acknowledge the payment and refuse to pay without seeing the receipt, then you can only accept your bad luck.

Old Hu frowned and asked, "Who was in the finance office when the receipts were handed in?"

Xiao Liu said, "Accountant Shen and the cashier have both gone out to run errands, so I'm the only one left in the finance office."

Then she continued, "I was extremely busy at the time, so I told Lu Qiaoge to come back tomorrow. Lu Qiaoge got angry and said that I didn't respect her. She is now a factory manager, and she came to check the accounts in person. How could I not give her face?"

I didn't argue with her, even though I was very angry because I was really busy doing the accounts. I didn't say a word. She scolded me for a long time in the finance office. When she saw that I ignored her, she threw the bills on the table and left without even taking the receipts. Oh, she went to see her boyfriend.

The bills were left on the table. When Hu Ze came to settle the accounts, he said something was wrong; more than two hundred yuan was missing. This was a huge problem.

"Director Hu, I suggest we call the security department to investigate me. They could search the finance office, or even my home, or call the police. Anyway, it's not my fault, and I have a clear conscience."

Xiaoliu is usually very talkative, but at this moment she seemed unforgiving.

Looking at it this way, she really does seem to have no problems at all.

Because she always seemed fearless and unafraid of being investigated.

Her frankness only served to highlight Lu Qiaoge's guilty conscience, who remained silent.

Several people were worried about Lu Qiaoge.

Even Sister Qiao and Sister Hua, who were standing in the corridor, were worried for Lu Qiaoge.

There's no way to prove this.

Deputy Director Huang said, "Qiao Ge, is what Xiao Xiao Liu said just now true? Did you scold her?"

Lu Qiaoge glanced disdainfully at Xiao Liu, who was smug and confident of victory, and suddenly said seriously, "Xiao Liu, I'll give you a chance to tell the truth, because I'm soft-hearted and can't stand seeing girls crying."

Upon hearing this, for some reason, Lu Qiaoge's calm and composed demeanor suddenly made Lao Hu stop worrying.

He even pulled up a chair and sat down.

Accountant Shen glanced at Lu Qiaoge: "What do you mean by that? You don't seem to understand the situation at all. We're talking about the lost tickets right now. You're just wasting everyone's time by rambling on like this."

Xiao Liu felt a surge of pride when she saw Accountant Shen speak up for her, but then she remembered what she had just said and said sarcastically, "Yes, Lu Qiaoge, is it interesting for you to ramble on like this? We're talking about how to make up for the loss of the money, and how you should take responsibility for it." Lu Qiaoge smiled slightly, "Look, I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it, so there's nothing I can do."

Xiao Liu's heart skipped a beat, and she looked at Lu Qiaoge with suspicion.

Does she have some evidence?
It shouldn't be.

He had already swallowed those tickets himself, and these tickets were all in duplicate.

One copy for the department store, and one copy for the street office's finance department.

Xiao Liu glared at Lu Qiaoge through gritted teeth. Even at this point, he was still behaving like this. It was infuriating.

Lu Qiaoge looked at the two directors standing there, then glanced at Accountant Shen, and said sincerely, "First of all, I admit my mistake to the leaders. I shouldn't have unilaterally trusted our colleagues in the finance department. I should have asked Xiao Liu to issue me a receipt on the spot."

Even within the same organization, when it comes to money matters, everything must be meticulously accounted for; there can be absolutely no mistakes. I will definitely learn from today's lesson and remember it well!

That's a really off thing to say.

Xiao Liu glared and was about to speak when Lu Qiaoge stopped her, saying sarcastically, "Comrade Liu Jing, you'd better not open your mouth. You'll just spout nonsense and waste everyone's time."

Since the food factory was established, the financial aspects have increased your workload, and you have always complained about it. I can understand that, since you are used to a leisurely life and anyone would find it unbearable to have too much work.

Therefore, my attitude towards you is to avoid you as much as possible and try to avoid direct conflict. In any case, we work in the same unit and department, and I still have a sense of the bigger picture.

The current situation is that I have no evidence to prove that I didn't scold you even though I gave you the money.

But Comrade Liu Jing, can you prove that you didn't destroy the tickets and spew lies just to frame me?

Lu Qiaoge remained calm and composed, just as usual.

Her tone and eyes made Xiaoliu panic.

It seemed that Lu Qiaoge was neither concerned nor afraid of the situation, which was completely beyond her control.

Lu Qiaoge wouldn't give her a chance to speak and continued, "I can also say something like your one-sided story. For example... when I came to see you yesterday, you were the only one in the finance office. Suddenly you closed the finance office door tightly, took off your clothes, and started singing and dancing in front of me. I was so scared that I threw the money on the desk and ran away."

The finance office fell silent.

It seemed like even her heartbeat was gone, and everyone stared at Lu Qiaoge in disbelief.

Liu Jing's mouth dropped open, and she finally shouted in exasperation, "That's completely untrue! You're talking nonsense..."

"See, anyone can talk nonsense," Lu Qiaoge continued, "Liu Jing, whether you ate or burned the tickets to frame me, there's no witness to that."

But it's not easy for our food factory to make money. We've been working hard from dawn till dusk, and we haven't received a single penny of wages yet.

How could it possibly be ruined by a shameless scoundrel like you?
Fortunately, I trusted the finance office of the neighborhood committee but not the finance office of the department store.

Lu Qiaoge took out a stack of bills from her bag, placed them on the table, and said slowly, "On the way back, we passed by the department store, and I told Team Leader Song that although we don't have our own finance department, we still want to keep a copy of the bills as a record."

I asked Team Leader Song to help me reissue a copy based on her original copy. We then went to the finance office to get it stamped. Chief Accountant, you all need to check its authenticity. Once it's verified, you can enter it into the books!
