Chapter Seventy-Two: The Fifteenth Plan

At this time, Ling Han interjected, "Manager Qi, since all the original account books have been destroyed, it is just right to implement the new accounting method mentioned by Brother Liu when the new account books are built from now on. In addition, this is not a war period, and there are not many accounts in peacetime, and although my uncle still continues to serve as the prefect of Liangzhou, he was also fined by the imperial court for one year and grounded for three months at home behind closed doors. ”

After listening to Ling Han's words, Qi Boyuan thought for a moment, then turned to Liu Fan and said, "What other suggestions does Fanzi have?" ”

"I also feel that it is better to let the Liangzhou prefect Yamen go back, after all, long-term secondment is not a thing, if there is a shortage of manpower, the marshal can consider recruiting a new batch of scholars from Liangzhou and even Jincheng Mansion who failed to take the Zhongfu examination, as for the training of the new recruitment office, I think Ling Han is completely competent."

"In addition, the marshal can also officially give Ling Han a position through the camp, and let Ling Han take charge of some specific affairs for you, I think the affairs of the baggage camp will soon be standardized."

"Brother Liu, what position can I hold as a woman, this has never been done in the past, and it is impossible for my father to agree."

"I don't agree with the fact that women have never held positions throughout the ages, I remember that women in previous dynasties even sat in the emperor, why should you hold a small position in the baggage camp."

As he spoke, he looked at Qi Boyuan again and said, "Besides, according to my analysis, Qi Dashuai and Deputy Chief Manager Li Shouyi will definitely agree with your position in the baggage camp, and I think General Manager Guo will also agree after listening to the suggestions of the two." ”

Qi Boyuan immediately said, "If Miss Ling Han comes to serve in the baggage camp, I can't ask for it, think about it, how much burden this has reduced for me, as long as Miss Ling Han is willing, I will go and say to Manager Guo to ensure that Manager Guo will not refute my face." ”

After listening to Qi Boyuan's words, Liu Fan continued, "This is the best, Ling Han officially served in the baggage camp, and it was previously decided that in the name of the Xingying Baggage Camp, the matter of brewing high-purity liquor will be studied by the two of us together, and I am ready to start trying small-scale brewing with Ling Han in this courtyard tomorrow, and if it is successful, I will report to the camp to see if large-scale brewing is needed depending on the specific effect." ”

Qi Boyuan saw that in just this moment, the matter of the baggage camp that he had been worrying about for the past few days had basically been solved, and at this time, his heart relaxed, and he immediately stood up and said, "Today, thanks to Fanzi and Ling Han girl, I have already made an eye on how to manage the affairs of this baggage camp, so let's do it, Fanzi, you first explain your new bookkeeping method to Miss Ling Han, and I will go to Manager Guo now to recruit new people in the baggage camp. Miss Ling Han's appointment and the return of the secretary of the former Liangzhou Governor's Yamen were all set. ”

When the two sent Qi Boyuan away, Liu Fan found a piece of rice paper, explained it while writing it on the paper, and its implementation of the battalion is an administrative unit, responsible for using the funds allocated by the imperial court to purchase various military materials according to the plan, and then distribute them to the troops as needed, its function is very simple.

It is only because of the wide variety of items purchased, and the reason that only a simple account was kept in the past, so that the accounts appear messy, if the loan bookkeeping method is adopted, it is like the accounting treatment of administrative institutions in later generations, and it cannot be compared with the accounting treatment of industrial and commercial enterprises, and only a few subjects such as money, inventory, inventory fund, funds allocated by the imperial court, accounts payable, and fund expenditures can be set up.

Set up accounts for various materials under the inventory account, buy materials or receive materials can be settled through inventory and inventory fund accounts, at the end of the month and the end of the year according to the accounts that occur during the period to make a balance sheet, and then set up a detailed ledger for all kinds of materials, so that the accounting settings tend to be almost perfect, you are still a veteran of the years, and it is difficult to find loopholes in this scientific bookkeeping method.

Because Ling Han is already a leader in this era in arithmetic and account books, after Liu Fan finished speaking, the little girl has fully understood the principle and logical relationship of this bookkeeping method, although she has only just gotten a glimpse of the door of this bookkeeping method, but she has already felt that this method is broad and profound.

For a person who was born to deal with numbers and account books, getting such a set of bookkeeping methods is just like a literati getting a splendid article, and a samurai getting a magic weapon, which is like a treasure.

Liu Fan saw that Ling Han's face was excited again, and immediately said, "I also want to ask Han'er to do me a favor, okay?" ”

"Brother Liu, whether it's arithmetic or from this account book, I have learned a lot from you, as well as winemaking and other skills, I think there will be a lot of things to ask Brother Liu for advice in the future, and in the future, Brother Liu's business is Han'er's business, and I can't ask for something small for Brother Liu!"

"Okay, with Han'er's words, then I'm not welcome, I originally wanted to teach these younger sisters to read and write, but you know, my ugly words are really difficult to be a teacher, Mr. Guo and Han'er, your father and daughter are both rare calligraphers in Liangzhou, no way, I have to ask you to be their enlightenment teacher."

"Will the academy be located in this small courtyard in the future?"

"That can be called the academy, it can only be said to be a small study hall, not only do I want to set up this small study hall here, but tomorrow I will vacate the south wing, and we will try to make wine here!"

"Okay, Brother Liu, I'll tell Deputy Chief Manager Qi that from tomorrow onwards, I will come here in the morning to enlighten and brew wine for the three girls, and I will go to the baggage camp in the afternoon to deal with the accounts."

The two were talking, and just walked to the door of the north wing, they saw that the girl Ru'er in the room was holding a ring ruler that she had found out of nowhere, and was supervising the other three people to write, and the expression on her face was so serious that it was unbearable.

Liu Fan secretly stuck out his tongue, and motioned with his eyes to Ling Han not to go in first, and when the two of them walked away, Liu Fan said to Ling Han, "Then the matter here today will be handed over to you first, I will go to buy the wine-making equipment first, remember to let Deputy Chief Qi approve two stones of highland barley for the soldiers to send here in the afternoon, and we will study the matter of brewing high-purity wine together tomorrow morning." ”

After running for an afternoon, Liu Fan barely purchased some equipment for preparing for brewing, and the main time was basically spent on the equipment used for distillation.

In fact, the brewing of high-concentration liquor mainly relies on distillation technology, and distillation is the use of different boiling points of alcohol and water to separate alcohol from the brewed low-degree sweet liquor, to put it bluntly, the key is in the equipment designed for distillation.

On the morning of 30 October, Liu Fan presided over the second military meeting in the small courtyard of the military headquarters to arrange for the deployment of the next batch of military operations to exterminate the bandit Qiu Mazi.

Since two of the four cavalry battalions of Xie Hao's C Brigade were stationed in Changsong County, and the other two battalions were stationed near the ancient city of Anyuan, the two battalions stationed near the ancient city of Anyuan must rush back to Liangzhou tomorrow under the pretext of going to Liangzhou to observe the forbidden military exercises;

The two battalions stationed in Changsong County were ordered to leave 500 non-commissioned officers to be responsible for the defense of the county, and the rest of the men and horses set out from Changsong County at noon on the first day of November to rush back to Liangzhou;

The deputy commander of the Second Brigade led the men and horses of the two battalions to set out from Liangzhou in the early morning of the first day of November and marched more than ten miles north in the name of morning exercises, and then immediately turned around and detoured from the west on a large scale, and arrived at about three miles south of Changsong County at about the same time as night, and laid an ambush;

The deputy commander of the C Brigade led the two battalions of men and horses withdrawn from the ancient city of Anyuan to set out from Liangzhou in the early morning of the first day of November and march more than ten miles northward, and then immediately turn around and detour from the west, and must arrive at the right time at night, three miles west of Changsong County, and lay in ambush;

After marching north for more than 10 miles from Liangzhou in the early morning of the first day of November, the deputy commander of the Ding Brigade immediately turned around and detoured from the east, making sure to arrive at the right time at night, three miles east of Changsong County, and lay an ambush.
