Chapter 1555
“The old ledgers have been copied to new books so it’s easier for reference.”
Tania explained and pointed to the computer on the desk while saying to Serenity, “There are too many ledgers to look through, so there’s also a copy on the computer. It’s much easier and faster to look it up on the computer.”
Serenity looked at the large bookshelves, trying to suppress her shock, and asked her mother–in–law,” Mom, are these all our family’s properties?”
“Yep.”
Serenity took a pause before she said, “Nana just mentioned the rental of some shops and houses, some chain stores, and small industries that needed my management.”
At the sight of so many books, Serenity felt that she would not be able to get to the bottom of the York family’s industries in just a few days of holidays.
God, there were so many books!
She did not study accounting, so she was just a novice.
“Your nana is right. It’s just some small enterprises. You just need to know where it is and who’s in charge of that business. Someone will make a report on whether it turns a profit or a loss every month, but your still have to know the details lest you be deceived.
“A little greed is harmless. You cannot expect everyone to be squeaky clean. As long as they don’t overdo it, we’ll just turn a blind eye. In general, they won’t dare mess around. Their careers will be over if they’re punished.”
The York family was a huge name. The people managing the York family businesses did not dare mess around for fear of ruining their careers. Moreover, the York family had always treated its management with kindness. They would not be mistreated as long as they did their jobs well.
Tania was worried that Serenity would be too uptight and serious, so she made a few remarks.
Serenity nodded. “I’ll ask you for advice if I don’t understand anything.
“Do I have to finish reading all these ledgers?”
“Take a look at the first three pages of each ledger for the time being. The first page lists the location of each business, which you have to memorize. The second and third pages are mostly the personnel. Their details and photos are included so you can easily identify them.”
Serenity was speechless in her heart but did not let it show on her face.
The Yorks had a fortune worth hundreds of billions and had many businesses.
