Mo Qian suddenly opened the ledger in front of him, folded the corners of the pages that matched each other, and then divided them into three stacks in the order they were nested.Mo Qian put these three ledgers on the floor by the wall.Huang Qing watched Mo Qian's movements, doubt in his eyes, and said, "Have you already gone through the ledger?"Mo Qian looked back and laughed.

If he'd wanted to skim off the top even slightly, he could have made considerable money. Yet his accounts were spotless.
