Datang romantic little landlord

Especially the little fat man Li Tai, with the speed of the calculation, Li Wangyou thought that even if he gave him a calculator, he couldn't count on this little fat man, it was really against the sky.

Not to mention the ten officials from the Ministry of Civil Affairs, even all the officials from the Ministry of Civil Affairs are no match for Li Tai, the fat man.

Hanging and beating, Li Wangyou could only think of this word to describe the gap between the two sides.

So Cheng Yaojin accepted the bet with the aristocratic family, in Li Wangyou's view, he was robbing him of his gold.

Now Li Wangyou is very rich, but who would think too much gold?

Forget it, it's pretty good to be able to get Li Ru's house, and also get that jade flower horse from Zhang Liang by the way, one must be content.

Li Wangyou comforted himself a bit, then smiled at the old rascal Cheng Yaojin, who was a little depressed, turned around and announced the start of the competition.

Among the account books brought from the Ministry of Civil Affairs, he picked up the copper coin account book for January, flipped through it roughly, and then quickly read it.

"Pieces, two hundred stones and 36 dou of cooked horse feed, 210 renminbi per dou, 210 and [-] dou of cooked horse feed, [-] three kuen per dou, cooked horse feed..."

Li Wangyou kept flipping through the copper coin account book, but only read out selectively.

But Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and the ten officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs paid full attention, and began to calculate with abacus and chips.

Li Wangyou read a thick account book quite quickly, and the ten officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs couldn't help being a little flustered.There was bean-sized sweat on his forehead, and he didn't have time to wipe it off.

Li Wangyou read faster and faster, and the officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs could no longer keep up with his speed, so he had no choice but to separate two people and use pen and ink to copy the numbers that Li Wangyou said on paper, while the other eight What's more, he kept counting in his hands, and he had to record it with pen and ink while counting.

On the other hand, Li Chengqian and Li Tai, these two little fellows, are quite capable. Whenever Li Wangyou speaks out a number, their little hands crackle and pull on the abacus to complete the calculation. Mother, Empress Changsun winked.

The performance of both sides naturally fell in the eyes of all officials, and they couldn't help but gasp.

Could it be that His Highness the Crown Prince and His Highness the King of Yue are really unworldly talents?Could it be that what Hu Xianzi said is true?

Zhang Liang was even more nervous, his eyes widened, and he almost stood up to cheer for the officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

He didn't believe that the two children could really calculate so fast, they must be messing around with some nonsense abacus, that's for sure!Zhang Liang comforted himself in his heart.

There are not a few people who have the same idea as Zhang Liang, although it seems that the prince and His Royal Highness are very relaxed.But that's mostly faked, right?Just fiddle with your fingers a few times, and the calculation is over?

Wang Renyou, Zheng Yuanshou and other big family members also looked a little ugly.

Although they don't care about gold, they care about face.In front of all the officials, losing to Li Wangyou again, how embarrassing are they?

All the officials whispered to each other, and when there was a lot of discussion, no one noticed that Li Ru, the doctor of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, turned pale at this moment, and his body shook like chaff...

371 I Got You!

The reason why Li Ru was scared like this was naturally because of the contents of the account book that Li Wangyou read out.

Many officials have also discovered the problem. Li Wangyou chose to read in the account books, all of which were spent on cooked food and horse feed... Could there be any problems?

Li Ru's face was pale, but she still comforted herself in her heart.

Impossible, this is impossible!How did that boy know the tricks?Coincidence, this must be a coincidence!

As a doctor of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, he naturally corrupted a lot from it, otherwise he would not have the money to buy another courtyard in Chang'an City.

And he thought that no one would be able to discover the key, and the account books were clean, even if he checked it several times, there was no problem.

But the numbers that Li Wangyou kept chanting made Li Ru tremble with fear.Every time Li Wangyou read a set of numbers, his heart beat wildly.

It didn't take much time for Li Wangyou to finish reading an account book, then picked up another book, flipped through a few pages, found what he needed, and continued to recite quickly: "Chi, cooked horse food..."

When he was reading the account book, his eyes inadvertently caught sight of the face of Li Ru, a doctor from the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

Li Ru's terrified expression made the corners of Li Wangyou's mouth turn up unconsciously...I've got you!

Sure enough, there was nothing wrong, it was the same as what he and his beautiful boss analyzed!Li Ru really did it here.

Li Wangyou had never been able to figure out how Li Ru manipulated the account books to escape the double audit by the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Biology.

It wasn't until the beautiful boss accidentally mentioned the reform of Huaxia's financial system that he suddenly realized and grasped the key.

China has been using single-entry bookkeeping since ancient times. It was not until the [-]th century that double-entry bookkeeping was introduced from the West.

Single-entry bookkeeping means that every economic transaction that occurs is registered in one account.

The single-entry bookkeeping method is simple and convenient, but the accounts are not directly related.

Taking the account books of the Ministry of Civil Affairs of the Tang Dynasty as an example, the accounts that record the receipts and payments of copper coins are separate from the account books that record corn and silk, and the changes in the movement of funds in them are not related.

In the double-entry bookkeeping method of later generations, each economic transaction must be registered in two or more interconnected accounts.

The boss of the beauty estimated that Li Ru had tampered with it.

To put it simply, in the income and expenditure account of copper coins, a certain item of expenditure is registered, and the balance of payments is balanced on the account of copper coins. No matter how you check the accounts, there is no problem.

But with this outlay, there should be an increase in other assets.However, the two account books were not related, which gave him the opportunity to manipulate.

The copper money expenditure of the Ministry of Civil Affairs is mainly the official teaching materials of the Daozhou states, the military rations of the military states, the purchase of post horses and fodder for raising post horses, etc.

Lesson materials are officials' salaries.

Among these expenditures, both Li Wangyou and the beautiful boss felt that if the greedy money was an important expenditure, Li Ru might have been discovered by others.Therefore, the place where he is most likely to make a move is the forage expenditure of those stage horses.

It was precisely because of such a judgment that Li Wangyou deliberately used the excuse that the Ministry of Civil Affairs' calculation method was outdated and provoked Dai Zhou to send him money and food account books as the content of the competition.

From the account books, Li Wangyou only selected the records of ministries spending copper coins and buying cooked food and horse feed, so it didn't take long to read through the seemingly thick copper coin account books.

In the second year of Zhenguan, from January to April, the Ministry of Civil Affairs purchased cooked horse feed 32 times.

As soon as he finished reading, the ten officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs were still sweating profusely, and Li Chengqian and Li Tai spoke separately.

"Master, a total of 37 copper coins and 760 five coins have been spent."

"Master, a total of 17 nine shi of cooked horse feed was purchased."

As soon as Li Chengqian and Li Tai's words came out, all the officials were stunned, even Li Er and Empress Changsun were also stunned.

These two little guys really figured it out?so fast?Are you talking nonsense?

In the main hall, everyone was silent, not knowing what to say, they could only turn their attention to the officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs who were still trying their best to figure out the results.

Er Xiao saw that she had calculated the results, but no one praised them, and even her father, queen and queen didn't speak, so she couldn't help feeling a little anxious.

Li Chengqian tugged on Li Wangyou's sleeve: "Master, what do they mean? Are we doing it wrong?"

Li Wangyou chuckled, reached out and patted Li Chengqian's head to comfort him: "Chengqian, they didn't expect you and Qingque to be so powerful, they were frightened."

The little fat man Li Tai raised his chin, and replied arrogantly: "Hmph, let them look down on me and brother, now you know how powerful we are?"
