Chapter 559: Provocation
Young Master Cui admitted that he couldn't pass the first level, but he was not discouraged, he was still so confident, and even had a little cunning in his eyes.
The old man complied with his wishes, and said loudly: "Please carry out the second level, arithmetic, there are two copies of the same money book, which record the income of salt and iron in this county in a year, and I personally went to the salt official office and the iron official office to receive it, which is absolutely fair, and the total amount has not been calculated." ”
"The two of you will calculate first, and the accounting room will calculate later, and whoever calculates the result accurately and the time is the fastest wins."
Yan'er nodded, this is also what she and Elder Ru discussed, it is absolutely fair. Young Master Cui did not hesitate at all, he readily agreed, and took the lead in standing up, waving his hand to the back, and the person behind him immediately stood up, bowed his hand to Young Master Cui, and walked to the front of the money.
"What are you going to do?"
When Yan'er saw it, she hurriedly shouted.
Young Master Cui responded unhurriedly: "You just said that the second level is arithmetic, and you didn't say that you can invite someone, that is to say, as long as you win, you can pass the second level, right?" ”
He looked at the old man with a smile.
The old man was stunned, indeed, Yan'er did not clearly say the rules of this test, since she did not say it, there is naturally no limit to who will clear the customs.
Young Master Cui This is a loophole to clear the customs, Yan'er suddenly showed anger, and blamed her for negligence.
"Exactly, let's get started!" The old man looked at Yan'er and had to nod.
Yan'er had no choice but to agree.
"Yan'er, do you want to invite someone over!" When Young Master Cui saw Yan'er with a displeased face, he smiled in his heart and teased.
He knows Yan'er too well, if he competes with the real talent of the two, even ten Young Master Cui will not be able to defeat Yan'er, but Young Master Cui will catch loopholes, which is also the reason why he is full of confidence.
At this moment, the account room in the county government is listed, and the account has been done for a lifetime, and the arithmetic can be described as handy, and there are few mistakes, even if they are wrong, they are in the millimeter, which is impressive.
The reason why the accounts in the county are in order is due to his credit. If such a person participates in the calculation, Yan'er will definitely lose.
This is Young Master Cui's idea, and of course everyone's thoughts.
Yan'er's brows furrowed, as everyone thought, although her arithmetic was not bad, but compared to the accounting room, she was not as good as her.
"What should I do?" Looking at the stacks of heavy ledgers and the disdainful expression on the account room, Yan'er was anxious.
"Yan'er, why haven't you started yet? You don't want to stall for time, do you? It's useless, the strength is here, and you can't win it no matter what. ”
"Of course, you can throw in the towel, there's no need to be so ugly."
Young Master Cui was very proud, and continued: "Actually, you still have a chance, I didn't pass the first level, I passed the second level, one win and one draw, let's draw, let's go directly to the third level!" ”
Obviously, in the eyes of Young Master Cui, Yan'er lost, and there was still no suspense.
The county guard on the side spoke, but he said to the county officer: "County officer, do you want to play tricks?" Hurry up and make your daughter admit defeat, don't waste time. ”
Jun Cheng was in a dilemma, and after a deep sigh, he had to nod, in fact, he also thought that his daughter would definitely lose, and there was no need to waste time.
Of course, he is also a little weak, if this level is passed by Young Master Cui, then the third level will be even more suspenseless, although Young Master Cui does not learn and does not know how to do it, but he still has some achievements in archery.
It is said that it can shoot the bullseye in 100 steps, which can be called a marksman, and although Yan'er is also involved, she is a rookie and can be said to be vulnerable.
"Yan'er, let's admit defeat! In fact, it may not be necessary to marry in the past" Jun Cheng persuaded his daughter, but was rejected by his daughter, "No, I will never marry him." ”
It's so willful, reckless.
The county guard was angry when he heard this, and scolded: "Juncheng, are you going back on your word? Then don't blame me for being mad. ”
Jun Cheng was most afraid that the county guard would be furious, so he lowered his head in fright.
"No, my father didn't rebel, and he won?" It was Yan'er's voice, and she arched her hand at Elder Ru, "Elder Confucian, Young Master Cui can ask someone to settle accounts, can I too?" ”
In times of crisis, he thought of a man.
"Of course!" The old man nodded.
"Very good!" Yan'er smiled angrily at Young Master Cui, and then ordered the maid beside her, who frowned when she heard this, but still left.
How ironic this sounds to Young Master Cui's ears, Yan'er means that she also asks someone to settle accounts, hehe! I couldn't help but laugh.
The best account room in the entire Donghai County is the Hu account room he invited, even if Yan'er is asked to ask for the account office, it is not a crushed existence, and no one in Donghai County can beat the Hu account room.
After a while, a person wearing a black veil walked in under the leadership of the maid, who was this person not Li Zhao?
When he came, he asked the maid to get him a bucket veil, naturally so as not to see his true face, after all, Xiang Gong's people are very likely to appear here, and if they are discovered, they will inevitably cause trouble.
The person Yan'er wants to invite is him, in fact, Yan'er is also a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and she can't find anyone in the entire Donghai County who can win the Hu account room, and she can only try Li Zhao, a person who can make such a poem, presumably the arithmetic is not bad.
As for whether she can win the Hu account, she doesn't have much hope, she just hopes that she won't lose too badly.
Li Zhao couldn't help frowning when he saw the scene in front of him, when the maid asked him to come over, he only said that he would help Miss come out, and Miss could forgive him, so he agreed to come, but he didn't know that there were so many people.
couldn't help but sweep his eyes across the audience, and for a moment, he actually found an acquaintance, who was the smart old man who was looking for trouble with him at that time, but this fang's conscience found that he had run to Shanglin Yuan, and he was considered his own person.
Looking at the others, the person sitting here is full of authority, presumably a local powerhouse, but he doesn't care, with his status in Daqin at this moment, except for the emperor, no one can compare with him.
At this time, the woman actually changed her previous attitude, and became full of laughter, but her words were still domineering: "If you help me win Young Master Cui, I will forgive you." ”
She raised the word forgiveness by decibels, but her eyes were longing.
But the word 'forgive' aroused Young Master Cui's dissatisfaction, forgive, that is, what did this fang do to Yan'er, what did that kid do to Yan'er?
At this moment, the victory is in sight, and he has regarded Yan'er as his forbidden body, and he can't allow anyone to do anything to Yan'er.
"Boy, what did you do to Yan'er, recruit from the truth, otherwise you won't be able to get out of here."
Looking at Li Zhao's tattered clothes, he ignored whether Li Zhao had other identities and scolded angrily.
Li Zhaozheng wanted to agree to the woman's request, but when he heard this fang being so domineering, he couldn't help but be angry, how could he be reprimanded today, and shouted: "What did I do to Yan'er? Is it related to you? ”
This is the rhythm of provocation, Young Master Cui instantly became hot, pointed at Li Zhao and threatened: "Boy, you are miserable, you will definitely not be able to get out of here today, no, you will not be able to get out of here at this moment." ”
After speaking, with a wave of his big hand, a slave came from behind and wanted to make a move on Li Zhao, but a voice stopped them.
"If you want to come nonsense, do you want to cheat in front of me?" This is the voice of the old man, Yan'er invited Li Zhao to settle the account, but Young Master Cui, who is the opponent, wants to do something to this person, this is fraud.
This is not the point, the point is that he actually smells a sense of familiarity in this person, as if he has seen it there, but he can't say it for a while.
After being drunk like this, the county guard spoke, "You and the others all retreat, don't make trouble, and we'll talk about this later." ”
He meant to wait until the test was over to clean up Li Zhao, but the anger in his heart was also rising.
In Donghai County, no one dared to take his son so indifferently, and this fang was the first.
"Boy, do you know who I am?" The county guard stood up and glared at Li Zhao.
Li Zhao completely ignored him: "I don't care who you are, I have no interest in you at all." ”
The county guard was instantly angry, and his face was distorted, but because of the bad face of the old man, he had to sit down with a 'hum', and at the same time warned: "Boy, when this matter is over, you better pray to God to find you a way back." ”
Naked threats.
Li Zhao replied: "I'll wait, I hope it will be as you wish." ”
The atmosphere was tense for a while, but finally Yan'er broke the silence, "You go and settle the score, I forgive you." ”
The momentum of this person's scolding just now is worthy of forgiveness, it is too manly, and men are born like this.
Li Zhao nodded, and walked to the side of the pile of money books.
You don't have to think about it to know that the so-called accounting is the accounting of these books.
After more than 20 years of travel, he really has little contact with him in terms of accounting, and his uncle is taking care of the accounts of Shanglin Yuan, but how can he be afraid of it with modern means and knowledge.
It's just a matter of settling accounts, and it's something that can be done overnight.
"Let's get started! The time of a stick of incense, if it can be calculated in this time is not accurate, it is a victory. ”
As soon as the voice of the old man came, someone lit incense.
Hu account room is worthy of the county's account room, the technique is very skilled, a few times back to prepare everything, and open the account book, that is, the money book.
He then pulled out a small bag from his waist and quickly opened the bag, revealing the small stick inside.
Li Zhao is no stranger to this, when he was in Chang'an Township, he saw his uncle settle accounts like this, and he thought about inventing something to reduce his uncle's workload, but in the end he forgot about it.
This is the calculation, in fact, in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period began to be commonly used in the accounting, its algorithm is very simple, is to use a small stick to record, just like modern kindergarten students use a glue stick to calculate the most basic addition and subtraction.
In fact, the later abacus was also developed on the basis of calculation, and it basically matured after the Northern Song Dynasty.
That is to say, the arithmetic tools at this moment are very primitive, and it is precisely because of the limitations of the tools that the accounting is very slow.
Li Zhao couldn't help but shake his head when he saw it, and when he would finish it by fiddling with the stick like this, he couldn't help but delay his action.
It's not that he can't count, it's that he was insulted, and in his previous life, he was like an adult playing arithmetic with a kindergarten toddler, which was very embarrassing.
However, Li Zhao thought that it was a shameful thing, but in the eyes of others, he was intimidated by the skillful accounting of the Hu account room.
Young Master Cui couldn't help but laugh when he saw this: "Boy, you don't understand anything, do you!" ”
