"Several account offices, you are all our old accounts in Bozhou, all have more than 20 years of experience in managing accounts, this time I invite you to come, I hope you will help me audit the accounts in the yamen of our state assassin mansion." Chen Fei said.

After hearing this, someone immediately asked, "What is an audit?" ”

"An audit is also to check all kinds of accounts, to make sure that there are no fictitious expenditures, no abnormal expenditures, and to check whether anyone has embezzled public funds!" Chen Fei said.

When those old bookkeepers heard this, they immediately realized that Chen Fei was actually checking the accounts. However, Chen Fei also came up with the concept of "audit", which is obviously a bit confusing. But they are also a little afraid to do such a thing, because this is the accounts of the auditor's office, and some of them work for private people.

"Chen joins the army, why do you want to let these accounts from outside check the accounts?" Chen Xiang asked.

Chen Fei nodded and said, "Is there a problem?" In my position of recording and joining the army, supervision and inspection is also an important duty, and I suspect that there are problems with the various expenditures of the Bozhou Assassin Yamen over the years, can't we check it? ”

"But why should we let the accounts of the outside merchants check the accounts, and not our internal accounts are responsible?" Chen Xiang asked.

Chen Fei sneered and said: "I can't trust our internal account office!" ”

In Bozhou, most of the things that can be done in the official yamen are related to the Cui family. Even if there is no direct relationship, the crooks can always have a relationship with the Cui family. So now that Chen Fei wants to check Cui Yan's accounts, how can he let those accounts that are related to the Cui family check it? In this way, when the time comes, it will definitely be a headless public case, but it will be able to find out a good official. Chen Fei was convinced of this, because if the account office in the yamen was allowed to audit their own direct superiors, wouldn't it be asking the accomplices to investigate the mastermind and find out something! I'm afraid that when the time comes, those accomplices will not put money on the mastermind. That's all good.

"Okay, you guys give me a good check of the accounts, tell me where the investigation is suspicious, and then I will investigate it fiercely! I don't believe it, I can't find out! Chen Fei said.

Under Chen Fei's strong suggestion, these account rooms from outside entered the account warehouse, and then began to check the accounts. And this news was not surprisingly passed to Cui Yan by those who were in the yamen. After all, these scribes all have a relationship with the Cui family, and now even if Cui Yan is temporarily suspended from power, there are still many people who are not optimistic about Chen Fei. Because this is the Cui family's territory! Chen Fei, the Cui family's territory, wants to stab, this is too difficult. Therefore, everyone is not optimistic about Chen Fei, so they want to take the opportunity to help Cui Yan ventilate the news, and then they can make meritorious contributions in front of Cui Yan and climb the high branches of the Cui family.

"What! That guy went to check my account? Cui Yan was surprised.

"Yes! Cui joined the army, that guy who didn't know whether he was alive or dead actually went to check your accounts, and let the outside account room check it! They obviously can't believe us, what if they find out when the time comes? ”

"Hahahaha, good! Let him check. If he finds out, then I'll have his last name! This account is a confused account, and I have a headache just by looking at the dense one. Even if he found the old account room outside to check, he couldn't finish the investigation for more than half a year. And he only has the ability to suspend my duties for fifteen days, and I want to see how they can find out. If only he could find the evidence of my incriminating guilt in fifteen days of such a complicated account. That's simply not possible. Even if I asked the Cui family's old account office to check, I couldn't find anything in a few months. Cui Yan snorted.

Two days later, Chen Fei finally couldn't help it.

"Why are you so slow? Can it take that long to audit the accounts? Cui Yan has only been in office for less than five years. You've been checking your accounts for two days and you're giving me these things? You haven't even had a year's worth of accounts, have you? Chen Fei immediately got angry.

The efficiency of this group of accounts is too slow, Cui Yan has only been in office for five years, but this group of accounts has been audited for two days, and it has only audited the accounts of the office for a few months. If this speed is in the future, it is simply insanely low. Of course, some people may say that future generations can have calculators, but Chen Fei knows that the speed of these old account rooms is no less than that of later generations' calculators, so he doesn't have to worry that they can't do it. But after two days, it's only been a few months, so how long will it take to check the accounts for five years!

"Chen joins the army, you don't understand that we check the accounts! The audit should be recorded one by one, and then carefully analyzed, such a process will take a long time! And this still involves the entry and exit of the account, and it is even more troublesome to compare the two. Coupled with these accounts, they are a mess one by one, and we have a hard time reading them. So, of course, we had a lot of trouble checking it out! An old bookkeeper said.

"Why are you struggling? Is it that hard to check an account? Chen Fei asked.

Chen Fei took the initiative to look at the recorded accounts, and sure enough, Chen Fei was startled. He didn't expect that this account was so complicated, and it was so poorly recorded, and there was no way to compare it with the simple and clear financial statements of later generations. Chen Fei was really speechless, such a complicated account, no wonder it took more than ten days to sort it out?

The accounts here are written in the vernacular, not in the form of statements. For example, they record that they spent a lot of money on paper and pencils, and he did not record it as a simple report as in later generations, but he recorded it as follows.

"It costs a lot of money to buy pen and paper!"

All the expenditures of these accounts are also in Chinese characters and vernacular, and there are no real Arabic numeral statements. If you want to check these accounts, you must first understand them thoroughly, and then use the mode of reasoning to do so. He is not like the bookkeeping method of later generations, as long as you compare the account and the account, it is easy to have problems. This kind of accounts should be often compared with each other, which is a great test of bookkeeping. Moreover, this kind of memorization alone is useless, and the book layout is chaotic, so of course it is very laborious to audit the accounts.

"I see! No wonder this Cui Yan has no fear, it turns out that this is the case! Want to dodge it so easily, though? It's not that simple! Chen Fei said.

Of course Chen Fei knew what to do, since they thought that it was impossible for Chen Fei to check the accounts within half a month, then Chen Fei would also use a new method to check the accounts, Chen Fei wanted to see how strong the ability of these ancient people to make fake accounts was.
