Chapter 110 Meeting Wang Sheng Again
Ji Yuntang smiled and said nothing more, watching Manager Wang leave.
On the way back home, she walked slowly, but in her heart she was thinking about how to transform her beauty and skin care store so that it would be unique and eye-catching.
Suddenly, a noisy sound rang in his ears, attracting Ji Yuntang's attention.
She walked over and saw that at the door of the Jinsi Cloth Shop, a young man in white was pinned to the ground by two servants and was being beaten and kicked.
"Boss Zhu, I was wrongly accused. I really didn't steal the money from the cloth shop."
The round-faced fat man next to him sneered, "Humph, who else could it be if not you? You are the accountant of our cloth shop, and you are the one who counts the accounts every day. If you hadn't taken it, would the lost twenty taels of silver have grown legs and flew away by itself?"
"Mr. Wang, I will give you one more chance. Hand over the twenty taels of silver you stole. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude to my servant and reporting you to the police!"
Ji Yuntang accidentally heard a familiar name and was slightly shocked.
Mr. Wang?
Isn’t that the young man she helped last time in the medical competition?
How could it be him?
Although Ji Yuntang didn't know Wang Sheng well, she was always good at judging people. Wang Sheng was gentle, reserved and polite to others.
In the medical competition, he was mocked and insulted without saying a word in return. Instead, he was magnanimous enough to let bygones be bygones.
How could such a person steal?
Seeing that Wang Sheng was beaten black and blue and vomiting blood, Ji Yuntang rushed forward quickly, grabbed one with each hand, and knocked the two servants who were beating him to the ground.
"Stop it, my princess! You dare to hit someone in broad daylight? Do you still respect the law?"
Wang Sheng thought he was going to be beaten again, but unexpectedly, a white shadow flashed in front of him, and a young woman stood in front of him, which made him feel refreshed.
Ji Yuntang was his benefactor, and he would never admit his mistake to her voice even if he died.
It would be a lie for Wang Sheng to say he wasn't grateful.
He wanted to kneel down and salute, but was stopped by Ji Yuntang, "You are injured, don't move."
Ji Yuntang stood there with an intimidating aura. Everyone was frightened by her sharp eyes. The two servants who beat people even rolled and crawled to hide behind Boss Zhu.
This woman is so fierce!
Boss Zhu didn’t know Ji Yuntang. Seeing the two servants trembling in fear, he immediately said with disdain: “Look at how useless you are. A woman scared you to death. You are really a disgrace to our cloth shop!”
After he finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at Ji Yuntang angrily, "Who are you? What does it have to do with you if I teach my servants a lesson?"
Ji Yuntang stood in front of Wang Sheng, her red lips curled up coldly, "You said Wang Sheng stole your money, do you have any evidence?"
"Evidence?" Boss Zhu said coldly: "Twenty taels of silver were missing from our account today. That's irrefutable evidence!"
"He is in charge of the daily accounting. No one else can touch the money except him. Besides, someone saw Wang Sheng secretly put the twenty taels of silver into his pocket. There is evidence, so who else could it be but him?"
Hearing this, the dying young man suddenly gritted his teeth and glared at him, saying in a hoarse voice: "It wasn't me, I didn't steal the silver, I was wrongly accused."
"The cloth shop keeps a reserve of fifty taels of silver every day, and counts the deposited silver once at noon and once at night. I have recorded all the silver collected today in the account, and put all the silver bills in the drawer. I really did not steal the silver from the cloth shop."
Obviously, Boss Zhu didn't listen to his explanation at all and only cared about the money.
"Then tell me, where did the missing twenty taels of silver go?"
Wang Sheng was silent.
When I counted the silver deposits at noon today, excluding the daily reserve fund, there was indeed twenty taels of silver missing.
Boss Zhu immediately concluded that he had stolen it and forced him to hand it over.
But Wang Sheng did not take it, and he didn't know where the twenty taels of silver went.
No matter how he explained, Boss Zhu didn't believe it.
"Mr. Wang, you still say you didn't steal it. I took you in out of kindness and let you find a job in the cloth shop because I saw you were a beggar all alone and living on the streets. I didn't expect you to be such a ruthless person. I was really blind to bring you back. You have dirty hands and feet, so you must have done a lot of sneaky things outside, right?"
Wang Sheng felt bitter in his heart and his face turned red. He stammered and moved his lips, "I really didn't..."
He was often scolded in the cloth shop, but usually, as long as it didn't involve issues of principle, he would just endure it and let it go.
But today, Boss Zhu scolded him in front of Ji Yuntang, which made Wang Sheng feel ashamed and embarrassed.
He didn't care about other people's feelings, but he was afraid that Ji Yuntang would look down on him.
"Boss Zhu's mouth stinks. Did you brush your teeth today?"
Ji Yuntang's eyes narrowed as he looked at him dimly, "In business, harmony brings wealth. Boss Zhu is so aggressive. Is it because he thinks his cloth business is so good that he is so reckless?"
"Besides, you and Wang Sheng are just an employer-employee relationship. No matter what his previous status was, you have no right to slander him. You took him in, and he worked for you. It was originally an equal employment relationship. There is no question of who owed whom."
Ji Yuntang said this and changed the subject, "I just heard you say that someone saw Wang Sheng stealing 20 taels of silver from the cloth shop. Then call that person out and ask him. I wonder if Boss Zhu dares to do it?"
Boss Zhu was provoked by Ji Yuntang, and his anger instantly surged, "Why wouldn't I be afraid of this?"
"In that case, I will let you die knowingly, so that you won't be accused of deliberately wrongly accusing Wang Sheng!"
He winked at the servant behind him, who understood and immediately went inside to call for help.
Soon, a thin young man with a pointed face and monkey chin came out. He had a gentle and polite smile on his face, but there was a gloomy light in his eyes.
This person is Boss Zhu’s nephew, Zhu Mian, and he is also the one who reported Wang Sheng for stealing money today.
Zhu Mian glanced around with a sly look in his eyes. He saw that Wang Sheng was beaten black and blue and no longer had the handsome appearance he had before. He was immediately delighted.
However, he still had to pretend to be confused.
"I wonder why my uncle asked me to come here?"
Boss Zhu's face looked better. "Mian'er, tell them whether Wang Sheng stole the twenty taels of silver today."
"Uncle, I saw with my own eyes today that Wang Sheng secretly took away twenty taels of silver from the drawer where the money was kept. I dare not lie about this!"
