Chapter 89 Tabular Law
"Hmph, what about the Ma family, as the parent official of Lin'an County, can I let Haoqiang run rampant?"
Wu County Commander said angrily, he should be afraid of this county order, but there is also a limit, but if he does anything to hurt the heavens and oppress the people, he will not be stingy with the majesty of the county order, and he must be severely punished.

Xiong picked up the ledger and looked at it curiously for a while.
"You're the one who wrote this ledger?"
Xiong Cai looked at Mei Xueyan with great interest and asked.
Mei Xueyan nodded and admitted that she had spent a lot of energy to make the evidence of Master Ma's book clear.
"Where did you learn this bookkeeping method of drawing a square and laying out numbers?"
"This is called the table method, and I learned it from the fragment of the "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" written by the arithmetic master Zu Chongzhi."
"Nine Chapters of Arithmetic?"
Xiong Cai was a little dazed, thought for a long time, Jingguo has never produced an arithmetic named Zu Chongzhi, he can be the prefect's main book, that is, he studied arithmetic under the seat of Jingguo and the "scholar" and "poet" of the same name, and has studied arithmetic for more than ten years, "Shensuan" is recognized as the first arithmetic in Jingguo, and as his disciple, it is not far off.
Xiong Cai blushed a little and muttered: "It's probably because I am not good at learning, although the master is a 'divine arithmetic', but I am the most unlearned among the senior brothers, even Jingguo and Zu Chongzhi are so arithmetic that everyone doesn't know, it's really embarrassing, go back and ask the master and ......the senior brothers."
"This form is extremely exquisite, especially in the processing of the number of tiger wings, with it, the accounting records are twice the result with half the effort, and the organization is clear, at a glance, if it can be popularized, those corrupt officials and corrupt officials will have nothing to hide, Miss Mei ......"
Xiong Cai is a student of arithmetic, and of course he understands the mysteries.
"If you want to use it, you just have to learn it, you don't need my permission, I think Zu Chong's predecessors are also for the benefit of future generations, so I tried my best to come up with such a way."
Mei Xueyan did not hide her secrets, the form method is something that everyone can learn, and it cannot be said that there are no defects, but at least it can help people save a lot of energy and benefit the people.
"Thank you, Miss May, for her generosity, but I have only seen it cursoryly, and many of them are mysteries that need to be consulted by the girl. May I ask the girl, where is the remnant of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" now, can you take a look? ā
Xiong Cai is modest, he has studied arithmetic for more than ten years, the journey has been smooth, he thinks that in addition to his own teacher, there are few people who are more proficient in arithmetic than him, today I saw Mei Xueyan, only to know that there are people outside the world, he is at most a frog at the bottom of the well.
Even Mei Xueyan, a little woman, made him worship, let alone compare with that arithmetic master Zu Chongzhi.
"I don't dare to ask for advice, Houxue is willing to exchange academics with adults, if you can borrow the hands of adults to push the magic of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" to the world, it would be better, but the remnants of the book have been ruined, and it will take some time to sort it out, and it will definitely be brought to adults to observe at that time."
Xiong was in awe, what is everyone's demeanor, this is everyone's demeanor! Whether it is a master or an ordinary craftsman, they hide it one by one for fear of being learned, but looking at the mind of the girl, Xiong only feels ashamed.
"Okay, well, I'll talk to the girl again when I go back, if the girl enters Beijing one day, I will introduce me to my master's 'Divine Calculation', and study the "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" that the girl said."
Wu Xianling is amazing, this woman is different, she can shine in whatever she does, she can write poems on the "Poetry Newspaper", let her do the accounts, and she can also be discovered by the disciples of the "God Calculation", whether it is a donkey or a horse, if it is really a walk, you can tell the difference.
The brilliance of pearls cannot be concealed by the sand, and this is called talent.
Xiong Cai said happily: "Lord Wu, the problem in your county's financial accounts is your own business after all, and I can not report it for the time being, but the deficit must be made up as soon as possible, and it will be done without delaying the payment of taxes to the superiors."
"Thank you, Lord Bear."
Wu Xian Ling knew that Xiong was not pressed for Mei Xueyan's sake, and allowed him to take a breath.
"Now the post of chief bookkeeper is vacant, there is no capable person in the county government, and I want to manage financial affairs, where can I find such a person......
Wu County made a difficulty, and there were a lot of talented children in Lin'an County, but few people learned to settle accounts, after all, literati looked down on this kind of calculating path. But you can't invite a bookkeeper to come, the law stipulates that the eight-rank official position must have a Xiucai position.
"Lord Wu, isn't there such a person right now?" Mr. Zou said, "Miss Mei has made a meritorious contribution to exposing the master of Ma, and her ability is beyond doubt, and everyone can see it, which is enough to take over the position of master bookkeeper." ā
The other two deputy bookkeepers lost their backers, and they didn't dare to squeak, so they hurriedly spoke to curry favor.
"Yes, yes, Miss Mei is a showman, and she has talents, and we are all convinced to be the master."
"Uh......"
Mei Xueyan was a little surprised, she hadn't been on an errand for a few days, and she hadn't thought about being promoted to a knighthood.
"I'm a novice, and I'm still learning to deal with many things, so I'm afraid I won't be able to do it."
Xiong Cai interjected and said: "Outsiders look down on us, thinking that we are just settling accounts and managing money, but they don't know that it is not easy to be competent, Miss Mei first has 'talent' and is prominent, and has the 'talent' of caring for the people, and has more down-to-earth 'talent', and has 'three talents', is there a more suitable candidate than you?"
Xiong Cai despised Mei Xueyan a little at first, even though she was famous, but women were born a level lower than men, but they were undoubtedly impressed by her ability, and when they talked, they admired her mind even more.
Wu Xianling was secretly happy, in fact, he had already had this intention, but Mei Xueyan was promoted by him, and he was somewhat selfish in directly appointing, and now that he is obsessed, it is logical.
"Well, since it is expected by everyone, appoint Mei Xueyan as the main secretary, and you don't have to shirk."
Zou Lao and the other two deputy directors congratulated in unison, but the eyes of the two deputy directors flickered, obviously afraid that Mei Xueyan would take revenge now.
Half a day later, Master Xu came back to resume his life, the house of the master of Ma had been sealed, the family members were driven out of the mansion, and the property was confiscated.
"The silver tickets, gold bricks and silver ingots, valuable calligraphy, paintings, jewelry, ornaments, etc., plus the house, the preliminary estimate is a total of 50,000 taels of silver, and the details need to be carefully counted."
This is just a master book, and the family property is almost a county's annual tax. While everyone was amazed by such a huge number, they also felt that the horse master was greedy for money, and he stored his property, gold and silver, and other dead things, but did not turn them into an inheritance, and was a real miser.
Wu County Decree naturally has to scold, he does not have such a rich family business in this county magistrate, although his life is not hard, he is never extravagant.
After learning Mei Xueyan's three statistical methods, "table", "curve" and "histogram", Xiong Cai went back to study with satisfaction.
