Chapter 67: Spy Intelligence
At noon the next day, Qianwu was in the study to make folds, and Tiyun knelt beside him to sharpen the ink.
Qianwu turned his head sideways and whispered to her, "Actually, you don't have to work like this, let's go and rest." ”
"I'm not tired, I just want to accompany you, and it's a child who wants to accompany you." Tiyun raised a gentle smile, and suddenly leaned over to look at the fold in his hand and asked, "What happened recently, why do you always frown?" ”
"Yuhu County in the south of the Yangtze River is located in the lower reaches of the Lu River, and the local prefect has written an excerpt in the past few years, saying that the embankment is in disrepair, and if it is not reinforced, I am afraid that the embankment will burst...... "Qianwu pinched his eyebrows.
"This is a matter related to the lives of the people of Dawn, and the fold should be presented to the emperor, why did it hand it over to you?" Tiyun was puzzled.
"Don't you know, my father has always scoffed at the southern region, thinking that it is a barbarian land, and the local people are also 'southern barbarians'. So I don't take it to heart, just allocate some money at will. Besides, Yuhu County plays every year, and my father doesn't take it seriously when he sees too much, so he dumps the matter on me. Qianwu frowned.
"The people in the world have no distinction between high and low, they are all the emperor's people......" Ti Yun said angrily, "The people of Jiangnan are not human lives!" ”
"My father is the best at using Huairou's strategy, and every time the spring and autumn harvest is in the early spring and autumn, he will lower the taxes in Jiangnan. Therefore, the situation in Jiangnan is still relatively stable, but once the embankment in Yuhu County bursts, it will be difficult to do. Chiki sighed.
"The construction of the embankment is huge and costly, not to mention that I can't build the embankment on behalf of my father, and I can't do it alone." Qianwu closed the fold, "I can only tell my people in Jiangnan to pay more attention and prepare the manpower and materials for disaster relief in advance." ”
Even so, it's just a remedy...... But what can Qianwu do? Since ancient times, it was the emperor's will to build the embankment, and it was a felony that violated the imperial power. Tiyun lowered his head, not knowing what to say.
Qianwu saw that she was unhappy, so she said, "You don't care about the affairs of the court, if you know more, you will add troubles to your heart, so leave these tricky things to me." You...... Just stay by my side, accompany me, have a good baby, and don't take care of the rest, okay? ”
As she spoke, she put her head on Tiyun's stomach and asked the child in her belly softly, "Are you okay?" ”
Tiyun looked at him like this, and couldn't help but be amused again.
"The boy said yes, I heard you." Qianwu raised his head again, looked at Tiyun and said seriously, "You promise me that you can stay by my side well, okay?" ”
Tiyun smiled and nodded.
At this time, Xu Chongxin came to report and said that Ding Yuan was coming.
Qianwu let him in, and Ding Yuan knelt in front of the table, looking at the Tiyun beside Qianwu, and seemed a little embarrassed. Seeing this, Tiyun was about to get up and go out, but Qianwu took her hand and said to Ding Yuan, "It's okay, Yun'er is not an outsider." ”
With that, he pulled Tiyun to sit beside him, took her hand and put it under the table, and wrapped his palm around her delicate little hand. Tiyun looked sideways at Thousand Mist, who smiled at her.
Ding Yuan nodded when he heard this, and said, "Earlier, the prince ordered me to wait for the matter of dismantling and transferring the informants from Jiangnan back to Kyoto, but the various forces in Kyoto are intricately mixed, and it will take time for us to plant eyeliner in it." ”
Since Qianwu knew that the emperor was going to kill Tiyun and that Jinzhi's death might be related to the palace, he had already begun to slowly move Jiangnan's forces to Kyoto. However, Kyoto is like a bucket that does not leak water, and it is not easy to blend in.
Qianwu nodded and said, "This matter still has to be continued...... However, the industry in the south of the Yangtze River cannot be put down, and the matter of the grain and capital that was ordered to Yuhu County to be done earlier also needs to be stepped up, and this year's rainy season is coming. ”
"Yes." Ding Yuan said respectfully, "In addition, the accounts of Jiangnan in the past half a year have been handed over to Miss Suyu, and I will report to you after the girl verifies it." ”
Qianwu nodded, and he retreated.
Not long after Ding Yuan left, Tiyun said to Qianwu, "You still have an industry in Jiangnan?" ”
"Well, a long time ago, in order to investigate Jinzhi's death, he developed a force in the Jiangnan area, and now I suspect that this matter is related to the palace, so it is not easy to take it back." Thousand Mist Road.
Ti Yun listened and said, "Can I help you look at the accounts?" Anyway, I have nothing to do......"
Qianwu looked at her and smiled, "It's okay for you to take a look, anyway, if you become my princess in the future, you will also help manage the accounts." ”
So Su Yu came over with the account books, and Su Yu went to Qianwu's study with two thick account books, one was the accounts of the Jiangnan industry, and the other was the income and expenditure accounts of the shops and palaces in Kyoto. Tiyun took it, and as soon as he opened it, he had a headache.
These accounts are cumbersome and irregular, and sometimes there are unexpected income and expenditure, which can only be marked with small characters next to them, and at a glance they are densely packed with words.
"Girl, it's a bothersome thing to look at this account, you better leave it alone, leave it to me." Su Yu said when he saw her frowning.
Tiyun shook his head and said, "I'll take a look, I'll give it back to you if I can't stand it." ”
One account book is enough to get a glimpse of many things, how can you let go of such a good opportunity? Tiyun thought silently.
Su Yu withdrew.
Tiyun spread out the paper and picked up the brush, and Qianwu was grinding ink for Tiyun on the side, and suddenly felt that it was also a very novel experience to polish ink for her.
Ti Yun looked at the numbers on the account, and at the moment when she was about to put pen to paper, she didn't know why so many unrecognized symbols burst out of her mind, but she knew all the meanings of these symbols, and she couldn't help but marvel at herself.
"What's wrong?" Chiriri asked when she saw that something was wrong with her.
Tiyun smiled and shook his head, and wrote down a line of symbols, 4517.
Qianwu looked at these incomprehensible symbols, and felt a little strange in her heart, so she asked, "What are these?" ”
"My own bookkeeping method." Tiyun smiled.
Immediately after that, the concepts of multiplication and division, fractions, and percentages flashed through her mind. The knowledge swept through her brain, and Tiyun closed her eyes and sat down first.
Qianwu looked at her like this from the side, and she didn't know what she was doing, but she didn't bother her.
Then Tiyun opened his eyes and began to calculate. Once it started, she couldn't stop, and her whole heart was focused on her accounts, and she didn't even know that Qianwu was asleep in the corner of the table.
When Tiyun saw the Kyoto account, he had a plan in his heart.
Aside from the Imperial Court's wealth, Senki's properties in Kyoto are not many. Most of them are also intelligence gathering, such as the Gloryhouse. The real money is still in Jiangnan, because he has always focused on the development of Jiangnan in his early years, so most of the income in the government comes from Jiangnan.
Tiyun wrote down the names of the dozen or so stores in his head, recalled them, and suddenly found that he had also recorded their total income and expenditure in his head.
It's incredible, Tiyun looked down at his hands. Why does she always have these skills that surprise her?
At this time, Tiyun caught a glimpse of Qianwu who was asleep in the corner of the table, so he leaned over and called softly, "Fox, fox? ”
Only then did I find out that Qianwu was asleep.
Tiyun looked at his face, when he closed his eyes, he was really a merry fairy, and when he opened his phoenix eyes, he was an out-and-out fox demon.
He slept so soundly, I'm afraid that even thunder won't wake him up at this time. A dark thought suddenly came to Tiyun's mind. If you kill him now, it's all over.
Thinking so, she seemed to be fascinated. took out a dagger from his sleeve, hesitantly pulled out the scabbard, frowned fiercely in his heart, raised the dagger and poked it into his face. However, just as the dagger stabbed him deeply, she restrained herself and stopped, just a stone's throw away from him.
She bit her lip and tears rolled down her face. Chiki was defenseless against her and slept so soundly because he believed in her completely. Tiyun looked at such a thousand mist, he couldn't do it at all, and he couldn't give him up at all.
Besides, if she did this, what was the difference between it and Qianwu's act of assassinating the fourth child and Yunhe?
Tiyun put away the dagger in his hand, and stretched out his fingers and slowly swiped across his face. At this time, Qianwu slowly woke up, and the hazy phoenix eyes opened to look at her, and smiled lazily and said, "Finished reading?" ”
"I'm done." Tiyun looked at him, suddenly took his hand and said, "I love you." ”
Hearing her say this, Qianwu raised her body and kissed her on the lips and smiled, "I love you too." ”
After a while, Su Yu came to get the account book, and Ti Yun handed her the paper in his hand and said, "The jade antique shop in Kyoto's 'Jade Kirin' seems to have incurred a large amount of money that I don't know where to go a month ago. Although the expenditure is spread over other goods, the purchase price is lowered, the selling price is increased, the income and expenditure ratio is raised, and the accounts are kept as flat as possible. But I still find that there are still some oddities wrong, so you can take a closer look. ”
Although Qianwu didn't understand some of the words, he still understood the general meaning. It's just that she didn't expect her to see it, and she was shocked for a while, and then smiled, "Did you pick up the agate on your ring?" ”
Ti Yun suddenly realized, covered his mouth and smiled at Su Yu, "You didn't hear what I said just now, right?" ”
Su Yu pretended to be dazed and said, "Did the girl speak just now?" ”
Several people burst out laughing.
Su Yu glanced down at the paper handed to her by Ti Yun again, which neatly copied how much each shop received, how much it spent, and how much it had left. At the end, it was summarized, and the total income and expenditure ratio were calculated, and which shop had a better business in the past few months was marked, and even subdivided into a few percent more than the previous month.
Although some she can understand, some can't. But she was very surprised, looked up at Tiyun and said, "The girl is really fast in reading the accounts, and she has made such detailed records, which really makes Su Yu admire." I don't know what tricks the girl has, can she teach Su Yu? ”
Ti Yun's heart turned, thinking that he could find out more news through Su Yu, so he smiled, "This is also my own bookkeeping method, if you think it's good, I'll teach you." ”
Su Yu looked at her with a smile on her face.
In the days that followed, Tiyun began to teach Suyu Arabic numerals and simple addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Su Yu didn't understand these strange symbols, but found that it was extremely efficient, and the abacus could not be used when multiplying and dividing the formula.
Tiyun also got a lot of other news from Su Yu, at least hearing the names of many people who worked for Qianwu and delivered news.
