Chapter 135: Accounts

Su Ming opened his eyes.

He picked up his brush and began writing swiftly on the blank bamboo slip.

His calligraphy was elegant yet forceful, a pleasure to behold.

He was not writing a dry, boring inventory list.

What he was writing was an "Analysis of Vessel Hall's Last Quarter Material Inflow/Outflow and Optimization Suggestions."

He used the method Lin Yu had once taught him to categorize all the ledger entries into several major groups.

Then, using a cinnabar brush, he drew a simple chart.

The chart clearly displayed the material consumption comparisons of the major peaks.

Among them, the line representing the Logistics Department of Heavenly Sword Peak was unnaturally straight.

At the end of the report, he did not use any words like "corruption" or "problematic."He merely wrote in a tone of discussion:

"...The material loss rate of Heavenly Sword Peak shows a regular pattern. Perhaps inventory optimization could be implemented to reduce unnecessary resource occupation..."

After writing the final character, he blew on the ink to dry it and rolled up the bamboo slip.

Just at that moment, a slightly portly middle-aged man wearing steward's attire walked out from the inner hall.

"Steward Wang."

Everyone in the room hurriedly stood up and bowed in greeting.

This person was precisely the supervisor of the Accounting Office.

"All sorted out?" Steward Wang glanced at the neat pile of bamboo slips on Su Ming's desk, then looked at Liu Tong's displeased face, and already understood the situation.

"Reporting to the steward, everything has been organized." Su Ming respectfully presented the bamboo slip in his hands with both hands.

Steward Wang took it, somewhat surprised.

He unrolled the slip, and after just one glance, his eyes lit up.

Beautiful handwriting! Clear organization!

Looking further down, when he saw that cinnabar chart, the fat on his face couldn't help but tremble.
