She simply pushed the ledger in front of Xu Xi: "You have calculated all these for me." ”

Xu Xi checked it and found that there were only a dozen account books, and he agreed very neatly: "Okay, it will be done in half an hour." Then he asked, "Is it too late?" ”

The ancient characters are written in large numbers, and there are more than a dozen account books, but in fact, there is not much content.

"Just in time. Don't rush, count slowly. The eldest lady stood up, refreshed, "I'll go see your grandmother." ”

Xu Xi said that it would take half an hour, but in fact, it couldn't be used at all. In only three quarters of an hour, she had finished settling the score.

After calculating these, she took a look at the Zhao family's property written by the eldest lady in the general ledger, and found that the Zhao family had 200 hectares of land, all of which were scattered in several counties around the capital. In addition, there were six shops—the books of which she had just counted.

In addition to these fields and shops, the Zhao family has no other property in the accounts.

One hectare is equal to fifteen acres, and two hundred hectares is three thousand acres of land, which seems to be a lot. However, in ancient times, the harvest was widespread, the yield of the fields was not high, and the value created was not large. The six shops are engaged in the grain and rice business, selling grain produced in their own fields, and the business is not good or bad, and the income is average.

In an ordinary family, with such a family background, you can live a very good life.

But Suipingbofu is a nobleman, and in order to support the façade, there are many slaves at home. Each master not only has to issue monthly silver, but also makes clothes and jewelry every season.

Xu Xi used the remaining quarter of an hour to roughly calculate an account for Bofu, and couldn't help but smack his tongue.

And every month he sent out four or five hundred taels of silver. This is not counting the daily chewing and seasonal clothes of so many people in Manchuria, the cost of making clothes and jewelry for the masters, and the expenses of banquets to be held from time to time, and the people's contacts throughout the year.

As soon as he settled the account, Xu Xi felt bald for the eldest lady: she couldn't make ends meet.

At this time, Xu Xi couldn't help but rejoice that the Bofu was going to break up.

After the family was divided, the owners of the big house were only the old lady, Zhao Yuanxun and his wife, her, and Zhao Jingtai. The number of subordinates to be raised has also been cut by more than half. Although half or even more of the field paving should be allocated to the second and third rooms, the spectrum does not need to be so large, and life can be lived well within the means.

Weddings and funerals are the most expensive. There are four children in the second room, all of whom are about the same age, and they have to get married in two or three years. Whether they marry or marry, they need a lot of money. This is not the end, Zhao Yuanliang still has to marry a wife. This is all due to the eldest lady to come out with the silver.

The dowry of Zhao Yuanliang, Zhao Jingli, and Zhao Jing'an, father and son, was made by the public, but the dowry brought in by the wife was their own small family. This draws out a large sum of money, whether there is in or out; Not to mention Zhao Ruyu and Zhao Rurui's dowry.

After splitting the family, there is no need for the eldest lady to worry about these, otherwise you can really worry about the individual.

At this time, the eldest lady also came back and asked Xu Xidao, "How is it?" ”

"It's all over." Xu Xi pushed the account book to her, "The total amount has also been calculated, I have made a booklet, and the monthly and annual income of each shop is in it." When you split up later, you can just take out the general booklet. ”

After speaking, she reported the account she had just calculated to the eldest lady and asked, "Mother, is this so?" ”

The eldest lady and Mama Zhou were originally full of surprises that Xu Xi would settle accounts and calculate so quickly. Hearing her report like this, the two of them looked at Xu Xi as if they were looking at rare jewelry.

"What's wrong? Why do you look at me like that? Xu Xi couldn't help touching his face. She couldn't have gotten the ink in her face, right?

"Sure enough, it's not my daughter." The eldest lady's face was full of embarrassment and emotion.

"Your eldest brother was originally the son of the world, so he needs to know the situation in the house. In the future, even if he marries a daughter-in-law, the house will be handed over to his daughter-in-law to take care of, but he has to know the general situation in the house. ”

The eldest lady sighed: "I have also taught him how to calculate accounts, and I have taught him to calculate the expenses in the house." But your eldest brother has been calculating for a few days, dizzy, and still a confused account. When asked him about his expenses, he was either at a loss or reported the wrong number, which was quite outrageous. It gives me a headache. ”

Xu Xi's face was full of sympathy - Zhao Jingli must be a math harder. In addition, the level of mathematics in this era is not high, and the training of the government is still heavy on military force rather than literature, and the accounts in the house are so trivial, it is really difficult for him.

"Not like you." The eldest lady looked relieved with "my cub is smart", "You just have to count well, you are born smart." The most rare thing is that you still have the overall situation in mind, just ask you to calculate an account book, and you can calculate the situation in the house clearly. I don't know what it means to understand people and what it means to be confused. ”

Xu Xi blushed.

Can this be the same?

Zhao Jingli is just an ancient child, what he sees and hears is this one-third of an acre, and there are not even a few more books that can be read.

She is a modern person. In modern times, regardless of the elderly and children, with the computer in hand, they can know the affairs of the world and guide the country. Just pull a teenage child over, people who have played games, how to engage in infrastructure, how to develop cities and countries, can tell you the truth, and there is a piece of country in your heart.

Besides, her mental age is still older than Zhao Jingli.

"Mother, how are you going to divide the family?" She hurriedly changed the subject.

The eldest lady is worried about this. Hearing Xu Xi's question, her eyes suddenly lit up.

Her daughter is gifted and intelligent. Just listen to her analysis of the situation in the mansion just now, not to mention that all kinds of conspiracies of the Wei family were discovered by her.

"How do you think we should divide the family?" She asked.

"The wealthy family is separated, are there any rules?" Xu Xi inquired about the rules first.

"There's no set rule for that." The eldest lady sighed and said, "If there is an old man, the eldest son supports the elderly, and there is a knighthood, at least half of the property will be taken, and the rest will be divided by other brothers." But there are also those who are mean and domineering, and the eldest son accounts for the majority, and only gives a little to the brothers; There are also generous ones, who share equally with their brothers, but those who share equally with their brothers are all brothers. ”

In short, it's a mess.

Splitting up the family is the most hurtful to money and feelings.

When Xu Xi heard this, he shook his head: "In this case, let's listen to grandmother and father." ”

The eldest lady sighed: "Your father is fine, he doesn't care much about money, it's more or less fine." He didn't want to be accused of mistreating his brother. But your grandmother won't. The Zhao family can have such a family foundation, which is left by the dowry brought by generations of wives, and carefully taken care of by generations of wives. For the food and clothing in the house, in order to allow the house to have more land and property, I don't know how much effort was spent on each lady. ”
