When Director Lin returned to the credit union the next day, Guoqing reported to him about the situation of the various brigades going to the countryside with Director Li in the past few days. He also said that he wanted to make time to go down again and check on the few brigades that were found to be in a mess during the past two days. When Director Lin heard this, he was very supportive and said,"When you go down there alone, you have to pay attention to your work methods and safety. As for the uncertain matters, he would first come back and discuss with everyone.”

When Guo Qing and Director Li went to Phoenix Ridge the other day, they were worried about Feng Lamei, the new accountant of the first production team in Phoenix Ridge Village. Therefore, he decided to go to Phoenix Ridge to take a look first.

Early the next morning, National Day rode his bicycle alone and rushed to Phoenix Ridge. As soon as they entered Phoenix Ridge, they met Zhao Guocai, the deputy director and accountant of the brigade, at the entrance of the brigade headquarters. The first thing Zhao Guocai said when he saw Guo Qing was,""National Day, why are you here again? How many days can you stay this time?"

"What, you want to chase me away as soon as you arrive?”Guo Qing asked him with a smile. "Actually, I won't be staying for a few days. I want to go through the accounts of each team's accountant in detail and further regulate them according to the unified requirements of the higher-ups. I still have some questions to ask you.”

"How would I dare to chase you away? If you want to stay for a long time, I'll think of a way to arrange a place for you! Let's go. We'll arrange a place for you to stay and give you food. Then, we'll start from the first team and look at each team one by one.”After saying that, he looked up at the ridge and pointed at a family on the ridge."Tonight, you'll stay at that house. The higher-ups all live there. Come, I'll push the cart for you.”

"I'll push. Let's go!" Guo Qing insisted on pushing the cart himself and followed him to the family on the ridge.

When they arrived at the door of the house, Zhao Guo pushed the door open. A bald old man in his 60s walked out of his cave and stood in the courtyard. When he saw Zhao Guocai leading Guo Qing through the door, he chuckled and said,"Aiya, another guest? Hurry up and enter the house." As he spoke, he unlocked a kiln door with the key in his hand. He pushed the door open and walked in first. He picked up the broom on the brick bed and swept it over. Zhao Guocai said to him as if he was giving an order,"Old Geng, this is the accountant of our credit union, Zhong. You have to take good care of him.”

He turned to Guo Qing and said," He's a good old man. His surname is Geng and his name is Geng Chongyi. If you need any help or anything, just tell him."”

At this moment, an old woman with white hair and a bun walked in with a thermos bottle. He smiled and said," Officer, you're back at home now that you're here. If you can't eat or drink well outside, just tell me. I'll make you something delicious again."”

Seeing the two old men, Zhong Guoqing's heart immediately warmed up. He quickly caught the thermos bottle and placed it on the table. He smiled and said,"Uncle, Auntie, my family is from Green Pine Ridge. My surname is Zhong. You can call me Little Zhong. If there's a day when no one cares about my meals, I'll come to your house to eat!”

Even though it was a joke on National Day, the old man and old woman took it seriously. Grandpa Geng immediately said,"That's right. We don't dare to be polite here.”

Guo Qing pushed his bicycle into the cave and closed the door. He gave the old lady a way and followed Guo Cai to the house of the accountant, Feng Lamei.

Feng Lamei happened to be at home, so Zhao Guo gave her a simple explanation."This time, Accountant Zhong is here to inspect and guide the work. He is my good friend.”Then, he said to Guo Qing," You can talk to Wintersweet directly. If you need my help, ask her to call me." When we're free, we'll have a good chat. I'll send you food now. Someone will call you when it's time to eat.”

After sending Zhao Guocai off, Guo Qing moved a small stool and sat down in the courtyard. She asked Wintersweet to take out her account book. He wanted to take a closer look.

When she opened the account book, Guo Qing found that the accumulated accounts from a few days ago had been processed and settled. Of course, the messy documents in the drawer would not be there either. However, when National Day checked the balance of each ledger and general ledger, it did not match. He looked at the bills that had been paid. They were not bound into a book as required. Instead, they were tied up in bundles with clues that women used to make shoes and placed in a cardboard box. He flipped open the cash account on National Day. He looked at the balance and saw that it was 822.58 yuan. He asked,""Why is there so much cash in front of the cashier?”

"There's no money in front of the cashier. I couldn't even pay the electricity bill yesterday!”

Guo Qing immediately frowned when he heard this. He immediately decided to let the wintersweet take the ledger and check it with the cashier and storekeeper.

When they arrived at the cashier's house, they heard that the cashier had gone to work. He went to look for the storekeeper, who happened to be at the entrance of the warehouse in the yard. He and a few young men were loading cotton into a large cart, ready to send it to the cotton station in the city. "How much cotton is there in this cart?" Guo Qing asked casually.”

A young man turned around and looked at the middle-aged man in his forties. The man said casually,"More than 1500 catties. We're just waiting to sell it and give the members a bonus!”

Guo Qing flipped through the account book and found that the balance was blank when he flipped to the cotton page. He frowned and asked the middle-aged man,""Uncle, what's your name?"

"He's the storekeeper. His name is Ji Xinliu.”Feng Lamei immediately made an introduction and said to Ji Xinliu,"This is our financial manager, Zhong Guoqing. He's here to check and let us reconcile the accounts.”

"Accountant? Alright, alright, alright!" Ji Xinliu turned to the young men and said,""Pack your car and leave. I have something to do.”

When he arrived at the warehouse, Guo Qing took the "Physical Record" account book of the Wintersweet Record. He compared it page by page with the physical inventory and found that the numbers were very different. For example, there was 280 catties of cottonseed oil in the account, but there was only one jar of cottonseed oil in stock, which was estimated to be more than ten catties. The white beans weighed 1280 pounds, and there was only half a bag of them in stock. The wheat was 5288 catties, but Ji Xinliu said,""The wheat has been distributed long ago. There's only one reserve left. Let's go to that big warehouse and take a look.”

Seeing this, Zhang Guoqing asked doubtfully,""Uncle, are the things in our warehouse registered?”

"There is. Isn't it fine if you don't register?”

On National Day, he took a look at it. It was a " Physical Item Registration Book " that the storekeeper should have written down. He had recorded everything that needed to be recorded, including how much he had stored, how much he had stored, and how much he had stored. However, these were all records that Ji Xin and the other six people kept at any time according to the situation of entering and exiting the warehouse. There was neither a receipt nor a receipt from the accountant. It seemed that he did not check the accounts with the accountant at all. Zhong Guoqing looked at Ji Xinliu's so-called account book and was shocked. He didn't know how his good friend Zhao Guocai had been an accountant here for so many years.

He and Wintersweet went to see the cashier, Li Jintang. When Li Jintang took out his cash register, it was even more surprising. The balance of Li Jintang's register was 1197.48 yuan, but there was actually nothing. Li Jintang even said unjustly,"I even paid more than ten yuan!"

"Then who took the 1,000 yuan?”

Li Jintang immediately took out a thick stack of notes and handed them to National Day. On National Day, the village's technician wrote an IOU to pay the electricity bill of more than 200 yuan. Captain Li Youcai's IOU was 100 yuan. Travel expenses borrowed by members when they went out to do business; There was the cost that the brigade had allocated to the production team; There was also the receipt issued by the village's supply and marketing cooperative: There were cigarettes, kerosene, alcohol, eggs, soap, and so on…

National Day looked at these documents and loan slips. Some were written on a narrow piece of paper, while others were written on the back of a cigarette box. They were of different sizes and shapes. He couldn't help but feel his head swell.

After lunch, National Day asked Wintersweet to take him to the second production team's accountant, Zhang Zhijun's house to look at the accounts of the second team's accountant. Although the second team's situation was slightly better than the first team, there were also accounts that did not match, accounts did not match, cash inventory was too large, and there was a phenomenon of IOUs. Guo Qing originally wanted to stay and help Feng Lamei, the new accountant, sort out the accounts and get on the right track. In addition, he wanted to see the two production teams 'democratic financial management and the release of accounts. However, it was not a matter of one or two days to rectify such chaotic accounts, let alone talk about democratic financial management.

After leaving Zhang Zhijun's house, Guoqing wanted to talk to Zhao Guocai about the two accounts. He happened to bump into him at the entrance of the brigade.

"Director Zhao, I've read the accounts of the two teams again. I think you have to help them. Make their financial procedures more standardized and strictly follow the system. For example, the accounts are consistent, the inventory limit is not allowed, and so on.”

"Aiya, my good brother, the people of this small mountain village have never been formal. It's already good enough that they can record the accounts. How can they meet such high requirements all of a sudden?”As he spoke, he took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket and forced one into Wang Guoqing's hand.

Guo Qing shook his hand and took a step back."Now that everything is being reorganized, we can't let this continue! He still had to be strict and act according to the rules! With your ability, wouldn't it be a piece of cake for you to get this done? You'd better call them together, including the cashier and the storekeeper, for a meeting to reorganize them. What do you think?"

When Zhao Guocai heard this, he blinked his eyes unwillingly and nodded.

"Then hurry up and reorganize. I'll come back in two days.”

After talking about the two production team's accountant, Guoqing asked Zhao Guocai about the village's retired soldier, Li Chunyuan. When Zhao Guocai heard this, he said,"Are you asking about Li Chun Yuan? He had been a soldier in the army for a few years and had crawled back without getting anything. Besides, it was only natural for him to return to the village to farm after being discharged from the army. What was so rare about this? However, he had been pretending to be active in the village recently. Was he trying to get an official position? Why are you so interested in him?”

Guo Qing heard Zhao Guocai's words and felt uncomfortable. Could it be that Li Chun Yuan's performance in the village was not good? Was it because Minister Zhao of the Commune didn't do any in-depth understanding and only listened to one side of the story? "I heard that Li Chun Yuan has been doing well in the village after he returned from the army, so I wanted to report it as a good deed.”

When Zhao Guocai heard Guo Qing's words, he snorted and smiled, saying,"A coward who can't even make a fart with three sticks, what can he do? It was normal for him to not be able to survive in the army. Now that he was back, he should continue to hunt the cows. What was there to report?”

While Guo Qing was talking to Zhao Guocai, a team of guardians, Ji Xinliu's son, came to find Guo Qing for dinner. Guo Qing said to Zhao Guocai,"Li Chun Yuan's matter doesn't matter, you can just take it as a bonus. You have to take the financial procedures of those two teams seriously, you have to follow the rules and correct their creative and arbitrary mistakes.”

When they arrived at Ji Xinliu's house, they saw that there was already a basin of hot water in the courtyard. There was a snow-white towel soaked in the hot water. The old guardian Ji Xinliu saw the National Day and repeatedly said,"Accountant Zhong, quickly wash your hands and let's eat.”

Guo Qing saw the enthusiasm of his family and felt as if they were back at home. He washed his hands, took off his shoes, and sat on the kang table, ready to eat. Seeing that Ji Xinliu was still washing his hands outside the door, Guo Qing asked,""Auntie, where does Li Chun Yuan live?”

"Not far away. He's on the same team as us. Why? You know him! This kid had just returned from the team a few days ago.”

"How is this young man?"

"What, you want to show him a wife too? This child was a good child. He had no words at all. Even though he didn't speak much, he was quick-witted, smart, and obedient. He didn't have any strange thoughts. He was a man of his word. He did things steadily. He returned home from the team the first day and went to work the next day. His family is all good people. If you can find a good wife for your child, his mother will be very happy.”

"Chunyuan is a good kid. Who doesn't say that he's good? He's honest, reliable, and fair in his work. But he didn't. However, he couldn't find any connections to find something to do.”Ji Xin took off his shoes and got on the bed as he interrupted.

"If you say that he's good, can he be a cadre in Zhuang Village?”Guo Qing asked with a smile.

"If this kid can become a cadre, I'm afraid the members won't be unhappy! However, in our brigade, I'm afraid he won't be able to take up the post. With his temper and character, how can he get along with those people? In three days and two afternoons, you have to kick the cannon shaft!" Ji Xinliu curled his lips and said.

"Is he at home these days?"

"Yes, he was cultivating with us this afternoon. Do you want to see him?”

"Why don't you bring me to see him after dinner?”

"No need. Wait at Chongyi's house after dinner. I'll get him to meet you. You're close to the leaders of the community.”

Guo Qing laughed when he heard that. He said," Uncle, I'm in charge of accounting. How can I have that ability?”

After dinner, Guoqing returned to Geng Chongyi's old man's house. He turned on the lights and opened his notebook. Before he could read two pages, he heard someone knocking on the door.

"Who is it? Come in!"

The door was pushed open, and a tall and strong young man came in. He took the initiative to ask,"You're Accountant Zhong from the credit union, right?”

"Yes, yes, you are Li Chun Yuan?”

He nodded and handed over a cigarette. Guo Qing waved his hand and said,"Go ahead. I don't know how to do it."

"Then I won't smoke either. I don't know how to smoke. I'm not addicted.”

"When did you get discharged?"

"I just got home two months ago."

"You were a soldier that year?"

"1968?"

"Oh, in the Beijing garrison? Aiya, I almost left that year, but I was rejected because of a small problem with my body.”

"So fast. In the blink of an eye, five years have passed. However, these five years have not been in vain. I have learned a lot in the army and have also been trained. Now, many of my views and thoughts are different from when I was a soldier.”

Guo Qing nodded and said,"It seems that you have gained a lot in the army." What are your plans after you come back? Can you find a job?"

"I'm afraid not! Was it that easy to find a job? It's fine with me. Besides, I don't have any specialties. How can I be willing to take a junior high school graduate? Let's do it in the village! So what if he was a farmer? As long as he worked hard, it was not like there was no day for him to make a name for himself.”

"Chunyuan, you're right. I agree with you. After I graduated from school, I stayed in the village for four to five years. Our village's Wen Xusheng was also discharged a few years ago. He became the secretary of our village and has done quite well these two years!”

"I heard about it when I came back. I heard that under his leadership, your village dug a deep well and solved a big problem for the members. It would be great if our village had a secretary like that!”

"Then you're back. Work hard for a few years, and you still can't be a secretary? Are you a party member?"

"I joined the party in the army, but in my village, people like me can't get along. You don't understand. The situation in my village is different. As time passes, you will slowly understand.”

Guo Qing seemed to have understood something. No wonder the finances of these two teams were in such a mess. In addition, he had heard Zhao Guocai's discussion about Li Chunyuan in the afternoon. He felt that the problem in Phoenix Ridge was not simple. However, he couldn't disappoint Li Chun Yuan, so he comforted him,"" Some problems may only be temporary. Evil energy can never suppress righteousness. Now that you're back, you should do a good job. The eyes of the masses are bright. There's a saying, I don't know if you believe it or not, but as long as it's gold, it will shine everywhere!”

"Accountant Zhong, you're right. Well said.”

They stayed at Phoenix Ridge for a night. The next morning, they left for Dongshan Brigade on National Day. The East Mountain and West Mountain units were relatively small. The two brigades were two to three miles apart. There was only one accounting unit for each brigade. Twenty to thirty members lived in two remote corners of the mountains. Looking at the unique geographical conditions of the mountain area where the two teams " could talk to each other for half a day ", and then looking at the rugged winding path, National Day simply pushed the bicycle into a broken cave beside the road and locked it. He carried his backpack and walked up the mountain.

The accountant of the Dongshan Brigade was called Li Zhongxin. He was in his fifties and had graduated from elementary school. He was not good at talking, but he had good handwriting. He had been an accountant in the Dongshan Brigade for more than ten years. Although the Dongshan Brigade did not have a large population and the amount of accounting work was limited, his accounting records were very timely. He did manage to settle the accounts daily and monthly. The accounts were clean and tidy, and the accounts were consistent. The cashier and the storekeeper were managed by a woman in her thirties. The cashier's cash register and the storekeeper's physical register were clearly recorded. After checking the accountant's ledger with the cashier's cash and the physical objects in custody, the accounts were also consistent. It was just that the accounts were not announced. Li Zhongxin agreed. He would report to the captain as soon as possible and announce the accounts to everyone starting next month.

After seeing the financial work of the Dongshan unit, his mood on National Day was a little better. He had developed a sense of respect for Accountant Li and the female cashier. When he left the Dongshan unit, he held Accountant Li's hand and said,""Thank you, thank you for setting a good example for everyone! I hope you will persevere and persevere. I'm going to report this to the higher-ups and let all the financial staff in the community learn from you.”

After that, he went to the Xishan Brigade on National Day. The accountant of the West Mountain Brigade was also an old accountant. The accounts were recorded equally well and were equally satisfactory. However, when he checked the cashier's cash vault, he found that the cashier had embezzled 50 yuan. If he misused it, he would admit his mistake and not commit it again. However, he insisted on quibbling. In the end, it was confirmed by the facts, so he did not say anything. National Day was filled with anger. When it was time to eat, Guo Qing was also hungry. Coincidentally, the cashier's family should be in charge of the meal. The cashier's father felt bad because his son had misused 50 yuan and kept asking Guo Qing to eat. But how could she be in the mood to eat at his house on National Day? He insisted that the bicycle was still in the ditch. He was a little worried and would eat it when he arrived at Shangzhuang Brigade.

By the time National Day arrived at the Shangzhuang Brigade with his bicycle, breakfast had already passed and lunch had yet to arrive. Guo Qing was already famished, seeing stars and sweating profusely. Humans were made of iron, and food was made of steel. He should eat something immediately, or else nothing could be done. He first rushed to the brigade accountant's house and asked for two steamed buns and a green onion without any explanation. When the brigade accountant Wang Wenlin placed two steamed buns and a few green onions in front of Guo Qing and brought him a big bowl of steaming hot water, a steamed bun was already in Guo Qing's stomach.

The brigade accountant Wang Wenlin looked at the National Day and said,"Where did you go? Look at how hungry you are!"

Guo Qing briefly told him about the process of checking the cash warehouse in the Xishan Brigade. He sighed and said,"Sigh! You don't know how angry that cashier is. When I checked his vault, I found out that he had embezzled 50 yuan, but he refused to admit it. He made up this reason and that reason. In the end, he couldn't deny it in the face of the truth and admitted it. His father immediately took 50 yuan from home to make up for it. This guy ruined my good mood this morning. How could I have the mood to eat at his house?”"Do you have a new accountant in Shangzhuang Brigade?" Guo Qing asked. You must start from the basics. From the beginning, you must give them good habits and good style. The entire accountant of the community must be like Li Zhongxin of Dongshan.”

After eating two sweet and delicious steamed buns at Wang Wenlin's house, Guo Qing immediately became spirited and asked Wen Lin to take him to see his production team's accountant.

The Shangzhuang Brigade had three production teams. The second and third teams were all old accountant. Only the first team was a young man who had just taken office last spring and had just graduated from school. It was decided to start from the first team on National Day.

The first team's accountant was called Zhou Xiaolong. He was eighteen or nineteen years old and had long hair. He wore a pair of bell-bottom pants that stretched his butt tightly. He was a 'modern' youth. Guo Qing was a little worried when he saw him like this. He felt that he must be a cynical playboy. However, when he carefully read through the accounts and financial procedures, he immediately looked at him differently. It turned out that the young man was a capable and agile person! But National Day found out that he hadn't checked the accounts with the cashier and the storekeeper for a year. "Why didn't you check the accounts with the cashier and the storekeeper?”

"How do you know I haven't checked?" he asked.”

Guo Qing pointed at the balance at the end of each month and said,""Since the transaction was made, why didn't the cashier and the storekeeper stamp this place?”

Wang Wenlin immediately walked over and criticized him,""When I tell you, you always don't care. If they didn't stamp it, it meant that they didn't admit that there were so many supplies and cash in the treasury. Who could prove it to you?”

National Day patiently explained to him the importance of financial procedures, saying that everything must have reliable written evidence. This was called "empty words without proof, written evidence." After the young man heard this, he took the account book in embarrassment and immediately went to find the cashier and the keeper to stamp it.

When Guo Qing followed Wang Wenlin to the accountant's house, the old accountant was settling a lawsuit for a few people. On one side was the cashier and storekeeper of Team Two, a middle-aged man in his forties who was honest and uncouth. On the other side were three chattering middle-aged women in their thirties or forties. It seemed that they had been arguing for a long time, but there was still no conclusion. They clearly saw the arrival of National Day and Wen Lin, but not only did they not stop, they became even more noisy. A woman bent over and stretched her neck like a fighting rooster. She widened her eyes and questioned the storekeeper,"You're just bullying us because we don't have anyone at home! Today, you'll be fine if you share the food with us. If you don't share the food with us, I'll make sure you don't stop!”

"Have your consciences been eaten by dogs? You've already taken the food away. Why do you still want to divide the food?”The storekeeper was furious.

Another woman stepped forward again. She walked up to the storekeeper and seemed to be trying hard to restrain herself. She said as calmly as possible,"At the general meeting, the captain announced that the dearers would pay up first before distributing the food! Those who had not paid off their debts would be distributed the food when they paid off their debts. Today, the three of us have paid off your debt, so you should give us some food! Why not?"

The storekeeper took out his own notebook and poked it with his trembling fingers like a chicken pecking at rice."Look! The food of your three families has already been shared with everyone! I've ticked off all the shares with a red pen. I remember it very clearly!”

The third woman entered the battle again. She said in a sarcastic tone,"Your notebook is at your house. You can tick whoever you want and whenever you want. This power is in your hands. What can we do?”

The storekeeper looked even angrier. He shook his notebook and said,"At that time, the three of you weren't the ones who owed the money. Those who received the grain had all crossed it. Could it be that I had a problem with you and deliberately made a random deduction? It's fine if I have a problem with one of your households, but do you think I have a problem with all three of your households?”

As soon as he finished speaking, a woman immediately added,"Then you're saying that we're talking nonsense with you! One household can talk nonsense with you, but do you think all three of us will talk nonsense with you?”

The storekeeper squatted on the ground without saying a word. His face was pale as he panted and spat on the ground.

Guo Qing had also heard the reason for their argument. He walked over and looked at the storekeeper's notebook. Then, he called the brigade's accountant, Wang Wenlin, to the side and said,"How's the manager's character? Could he be spouting nonsense?"

Wang Wenlin said," He's just an honest person. Three sticks won't make a sound. How can he talk nonsense with others?"”

"Then you should work for those three women and get them to tell the truth. What do they want?”

Wang Wenlin called the three women outside the gate for questioning. Guo Qing and Team Two's accountant called the storekeeper into the room to ask about the situation. As soon as he entered the room, the forty-year-old man burst into tears. He could not wipe away the tears of injustice. He sobbed and said,"It's all my fault. I was too careless. I didn't ask them to sign or press their fingerprints when I distributed the food!"”

Guo Qing asked,"Is there anyone else in the team who can prove that they distributed food to these three families?"”

"Why not? There were many people present on the day of the food distribution. As their men were working outside, the food they distributed was sent home by others!”

"Then why did they talk nonsense with you?”

"Maybe sometimes I don't speak well to them. They used the excuse that I didn't ask them to sign and worked together to harm me.”

Hearing this, Guo Qing felt a little ridiculous. He turned around and walked out of the door. He wanted to see how capable these three women were.

However, just as he reached the door, he saw the three women and Wang Wenlin snickering. Seeing Guo Qing come out, Wen Lin hurriedly said,""It's okay, it's okay. These three guys are bullying honest people!”

"What do you mean by bullying an honest person? We're going to teach him a lesson. Let's see if he still dares to look down on us, the delinquents? Usually, when we go to his house to ask about our distribution and debt situation, he would always be angry with us. This time, he had caught hold of his little pigtail and had to teach him a lesson!”

When Guo Qing heard this, he let out a long sigh and said,""Aiya, you can't bully an honest person like this! You guys go back first. We'll criticize him properly and let you guys vent your anger!”

After sending away the three pestering women, Guo Qing and Wen Lin criticized the storekeeper for not following the financial system and making mistakes. They asked him to sign and seal the procedures when distributing food and receiving things to the members in the future. They also wanted to supplement and improve similar procedures in the past as soon as possible.

That afternoon, Guoqing finished looking at the accounts of the second and third teams in Shangzhuang and checked the relevant financial work. Then, he rushed to the Xiazhuang team without stopping. He stayed in the Xiazhuang Brigade for a night, and the next day, he visited Shenlong Valley, Wangjiayu, Erlang Ao and other brigades. On the afternoon of the third day, when he arrived at the Wenjiapo Brigade, the brigade accountant was having a meeting with the four production team accountant under his command to study the standard accounting procedures. They were overjoyed to see that National Day had arrived. Three of the four production team's accountant were new ones who had just taken office that spring. The brigade's accountant was also a novice. They couldn't talk about how to deal with the accounts in order to comply with the regulations. They were arguing. "Accountant Zhong, I'm not too familiar with my business. Since you're here, you can give us some guidance!" the brigade's accountant said humbly.”

National Day also felt that this was a good opportunity to rectify, improve the financial system, and do a good job in financial management. He took out the financial management documents that he carried with him and explained the importance of seriously implementing the financial system. He also explained in detail the bookkeeping, reconciliation, including the specific steps of year-end income distribution and accounting processing methods. When he explained the accounting methods, he listed many examples based on his own experience. Everyone listened attentively and with great interest. It was not until someone called Guo Qing out for dinner that everyone reluctantly left.

On his way to dinner on National Day, a member of the village came to him and said that Director Lin of the credit union had sent a message. He told Guo Qing to rush back to the credit union as soon as possible. The credit union had a meeting tomorrow.

To return to the Commune's credit union from the Wenjiapo Brigade, they had to walk three or four miles on a slope, cross a ditch, and walk five miles after reaching the golden lump before they could reach the location of the Commune, Lijia Village. National Day hurriedly ate a few mouthfuls of rice, pressed down the rice bowl, and threw down the food money and food stamps. He got on his bicycle and hurried back in the dark.

When National Day left Wenjiapo Village, the sky was completely dark. He pushed the cart over a ditch. When he entered Golden Gall Village, there was no one in the village. The alleys and streets of Golden Gall Village were dark and quiet. The cold wind blew, adding to the desolation. He walked alone in the dark, feeling a little scared. What should he do? Why don't we stay the night at the golden lump and go back early tomorrow morning? But he immediately denied himself. I don't even know if the brigade's accountant is at home. Even if he is at home, it's freezing cold and dark in the middle of the night. Where can he arrange a place for us? Why would a young man in his twenties bother the team leader about accommodation? In the end, National Day was still confident. He pedaled his bicycle and walked out of Jingeta Village in the dark.

After leaving the village, there was another long and steep slope. Guo Qing jumped out of the car, grabbed the handle with one hand, and pushed the seat with the other. He panted heavily as he climbed up the slope. It was so dark that one could not even see one's fingers. National Day could only be seen from the dark outline of the terraced fields on the opposite side, left in the faint light of the sky, almost reaching the top of the slope. At this time, he stopped his bicycle and loosened his belt. He was ready to ride the bicycle as soon as he reached the top of the slope. He could not help but feel relaxed when he reached the bottom of the slope.

Just as Guo Xing tightened his belt, pushed the cart, and continued to climb up the slope step by step, an unexpected situation suddenly appeared in front of him. A four-legged animal was standing on the top of the hill just a few steps away from him, facing National Day. It was two or three feet tall, its egg-sized eyes glinting with a green light, and its panting from the long run could be clearly heard. Guo Qing was immediately shocked, and his hair stood on end. He shouted in his heart, Aiya! Wasn't this a wolf? He had long heard that there were wolves in this area, but before National Day, he did not believe those rumors at all. He thought that someone had made them up to scare people. Besides, he had only heard the wolf's cry and heard of its power. He had never seen a real wolf before, let alone encountered a wolf at such a close distance alone. What should he do? Turning around, it was a downhill road. As long as he got on the bicycle and sped down the steep slope, he might be able to escape from the wolves. But National Day had heard people say that if you saw a wolf, you must not run. The more you run, the tighter the wolf will chase you! In such an empty night, to race with a wolf, wasn't this an international joke? How can you be its match? It seemed that they absolutely could not retreat. Retreating would only lead to death. So what if he didn't run? How could he fight it with his bare hands? Guo Qing's mind was spinning rapidly. What should he do? What should he do? At this moment, the wolf was probably having a fierce mental struggle. What kind of weapon was this person holding? Can I eat him? How should he strike? At this time, there was only a " puke " sound, and it made an impatient groan from its throat. Then, one of its claws dug on the ground twice." Shua, Shua " The two sounds seemed to scratch the heart of National Day, making people feel even more terrifying.

In desperation, Zhong Guoqing subconsciously touched his body with one hand. At this moment, a hard metal object in his coat pocket touched his finger. He picked it up with a few fingers and put it in his palm. He suddenly remembered that it was a teaching whistle that he bought for his wife Li Zhen when he passed by a commission store in Golden Gall Village a few days ago. As soon as he touched this cold iron whistle, Guoqing immediately had a wonderful idea. He decided to whistle to scare away the wolf that was about to attack him.

It was too late to say, but it was too fast. Guo Qing held the whistle in his mouth and blew with all his might. There was a sudden, ear-piercing scream in the darkness. In an instant, National Day heard a whoosh in his ear. When he looked again, the two big eyes that were flashing with green light had disappeared. The two-to-three-feet-tall guy that was supporting itself with four long legs had already fled without a trace. As for which direction it ran to, it was impossible to determine. At this moment, Guo Qing felt his whole body go limp and he was sweating profusely. A cold wind blew, and he shivered instinctively.

The danger passed, and the surroundings returned to normal. Guo Qing put the unusual whistle into his pocket and got into the car with his legs. His eyes were wide open as he fumbled in the dark and quickly entered Li Village. When he knocked on the door of the credit union and sat opposite Accountant Ma, he had no strength left. Accountant Ma was surprised to see Guo Xing's pale face and sweaty appearance after he entered. He quickly poured a glass of water and handed it to Guo Xing. He asked curiously,"What's wrong? What happened?"

"Cough! Accountant Ma, you would never have dreamed of this. I just fought with a wolf!”

"Ah!" Accountant Ma cried out in surprise.
