……

Moving from the side room to the three open houses, Xu Xing was not in a hurry to practice the condensation technique given by Yao Dang, he first ordered someone to move the account books of Siming Mountain from the room of King Wei Tianwang to his study, and then began to check the materials in the treasury against the account books, one by one.

On the first day of taking office, Xu Xing wanted to show his housekeeping talents and convince everyone in the cottage.

Housekeeping ......, seemingly inconsequential.

But the allocation of military rations alone is enough to stump a group of green forest heroes.

Let's take a simple example.

If Simingshan needs at least 100 stone a month for military rations, under the deployment of mediocre people, it may cost 150 stones, or even two or three hundred stones, a month to eat the grain.

However, under the ration of the virtuous, it is enough to reduce it to only seventy stone of grain a month, and it can also make the soldiers and horses up and down the cottage eat and drink enough, without affecting the combat power.

The remaining part of the army ration is enough to recruit twice as many soldiers.

That's the value of housekeeping talent.

Maybe you don't have the ability to open source, but you definitely have the ability to throttle.

In just three days, Xu Xing sorted out all the inventory up and down Siming Mountain, rewrote it into an account book, and presented it to Yao Dang, the king of mourning.

He used to be a stableman, and he was in charge of the miscellaneous animals handed over by the shepherds.

In other words, it is the bookkeeper of Taifu Temple.

"Fourth Brother ......"

"With a talent like you, I don't know how many there are in the imperial court."

After Yao Dang finished reading the account book, a sense of frustration suddenly appeared in his heart, and he asked Xu Xing.

He and Wei Tianwang used to manage the internal affairs of Siming Mountain, and the account books that the two of them worked together to sort out, in his opinion, have been calculated. But the account book that Xu Xing presented to him was concise and clear, and every material could be used to the best of its ability, and ...... should be arranged appropriately.

The gap is too big.

And Xu Xing is only an eight-rank official of the imperial court.

...... rebelling against the imperial court and rebelling, he had this sense of powerlessness for the first time.

"As many as the stars."

Xu Xing thought carefully for a while and gave the answer, "The younger brother is in the imperial court, just a small official, after serving as a pawn, he has not been promoted for two years, presumably there are ...... people in the temple whose political achievements are higher than those of the younger brother, and the list goes on!" ”

"Fourth Brother ......"

When Yao Dang heard this, he smiled dumbly.

He understood the meaning of Xu Xing's words.

These words seem to be modest, but in fact they are informing him of the decay of the court. With a talented person like Xu Xing, just think about it, there will definitely not be too many in the temple. And this kind of talent, but in the imperial court, there is no promotion, and there is no hope of promotion. It can be seen that even if the court gathers the world's elites, it is also vulnerable.

"In the future, the internal affairs will be handled by the fourth brother, yourself."

"Foolish brother just asks."

Yao Dang intends to delegate power.

He was already busy with official business and had no time to take care of housekeeping, so the second child Wei Tianwang took the position of cottage housekeeper. Now that he is here in Xu Xing, he is ready to follow the example.

"You're the fourth brother......"

"Not my courtier."

Seeing that Xu Xing was about to resign, Yao Dang grabbed Xu Xing's right arm and stopped him from bowing, "The internal affairs in the village were promised by the eldest brother in front of the brothers in the village, and I will hand it over to you!" If you report to me about everything, what should my brothers think of me? ”

"The cottage is not my private property."

He repeated the phrase again.

It's just that it's not in front of King Kun, but in front of Xu Xing.

If Xu Xing really intends to do something in the account books, Yao Dang, the king of mourning, thinks that with his ability, he should not be able to see the greasy ...... in this, rather than asking about everything, it seems that he is suspicious of Xu Xing, why not be direct and generous, do not use suspicious people, and use people without suspicion.

The ability of old officials to make fake accounts is difficult for ordinary people to compare.

Not to mention the ...... everyone who is proficient in arithmetic.

"Brother Xie values it."

Xu Xing saw that Yao Dang didn't seem to be a fake, hesitated for a moment, and agreed.

He didn't know if Yao Dang's actions were because of his red life [Restoration], or for other reasons. After all, the introduction of the [Restoration] proposition is written: 'Innovation, sweeping away the accumulated disadvantages of the past dynasties, is easy to win the favor of the master.' ’

The [Restoration] life character made it easier for him to gain Yao Dang's trust.

But among them, he is also cautious in everything.

He didn't get involved in military power, so Yao Dang used him and trusted him more than others.

……

Walk out of the Snow Pavilion where the King of Mourning Heaven lives.

Xu Xing rubbed his eyebrows.

Yao Dang treated him with sincerity like this, which made him a little uncomfortable. When he entered Siming Mountain, he really had bad intentions. wants to use Siming Mountain as a pedal to compete for the world, break the Shenjing, and hold his own blood feud .......

Whether it is Chang Ji or the Three Heavenly Kings, he is always taking advantage of it.

But now .......

"What do you want to do with so much?"

"Su Qin said, 'Let me have Luoyang Erqingtian, and An Nengpei Six Kingdoms will seal each other', Cao Cao initially only wanted to be a marquis by virtue of merit and be the general of the Han Dynasty's expedition to the west."

"If you really get to that point, it's up to me to decide."

Xu Xing calmed down.

Collecting power is an instinct.

If you are willing to take a step back, everything will be up to him in the future.

Step by step, step by step, until your feet are on the cliff, and you are left to jump.

Whoever does not live up to me, I will live up to your .......

Power struggles are always bloody.

Only when he clenches his fists can he have the ability and qualifications to preach righteousness.

Instead of waiting for the sword soldiers to die, they begged for mercy from others.

Putting one's life on someone else's body, impossible!

He has already been imprisoned once, and he will not repeat the same mistakes in the future!

"Fourth brother."

"This is the long knife you asked me to make for you."

Just as Xu Xing was in reverie, King Kun Tianwang led the crowd from the northwest corner of the cottage. When he was about ten steps away from Xu Xing, he woke Xu Xing up and threw a long knife with a sheath in his hand to Xu Xing.

"Thank you, third brother."

Xu Xing came back to his senses and took the long knife with one hand.

He grabbed the scabbard under his ribs, drew the knife and looked at it, only to see that the knife was bright and sharp.

"Good knives!"

He casually complimented.

Siming Cottage has gathered a lot of green forest heroes, including many people from the rivers and lakes who were blacksmiths. In Siming Cottage, King Kun has more control over the Five Tigers.

Therefore, Xu Xing asked King Kun Tianwang to help him build a long knife for self-defense.

"Fourth brother, you said that you are a scholar......

"If you want to match it, you also want to match it with a gentleman's sword, but you just get a long knife ......"

King Kun was a little puzzled.

He also thought that Xu Xing asked him to build a sword, but who knew that when he went to the blacksmith shop to get weapons, he found that what Xu Xing asked him to help build was not a sword, but a long knife with a strange shape.

"Third brother, this is your pedantic."

"Who said...... Can't a scholar be a swordsman? ”

Xu Xing pinned the long knife to his waist, held the account book in his hand, and said with a smile.

The long knife he asked King Kun to build was nothing else, it was the Guanshan knife that had been circulated in the Qin Province region of the copy world. This kind of long knife is similar to the Song Dynasty Pu knife, but it has less long handle than the Pu knife.

He doesn't know swordsmanship, he can only make Master Ma's swordsmanship.

"It does ......"

"No one has a rule that a scholar can only be a swordsman."

King Kun patted his head and secretly said that he was confused.

Xu Xing, a scholar, ......, how can he ignore it?!
