Chapter 481: Nothing to hide in front of mathematics

"The village chief is right, His Royal Highness is a kind heart, let our people live a better life, if we plant fifteen acres, our mountains can basically grow hemp crops, so we will be more trouble-free." Shi Laojiu said loudly.

Soon, the entire Shijiawan said that they would plant according to His Highness's orders.

In fact, although Shi Laojiu agreed, he said in his heart that it was false that he was not worried, what if His Royal Highness didn't have so much hemp during the autumn harvest? But...... Even if you lose a little, you have to help His Highness plant!

The situation in Shijiawan has gradually occurred in different areas of Datang, not only hemp crops, but also silkworm farmers and other people, Li Ke has planned for them.

……

Liangyi Palace, after writing the relevant information, Li Ke wrote a relevant note to Chang Lin, and wrote the appointment very formally.

"Chang Nei, please give me the talisman." After Li Ke finished writing, he asked Chang Lin for a military talisman very formally.

The jade seals of the country are all here with Li Ke, and the soldier talisman Li Shimin has not taken them away at all, they are all kept here by Li Ke.

But this thing, ordinary people don't dare to use it, for example, Li Chengqian and Li Tai have both supervised the country, Li Tai is in charge of the country, and Li Tai has no right to move the jade seal and the military talisman Li Tai, in Li Shimin's place.

When Li Chengqian was in charge of the country, these two things were also in Li Chengqian's hands, but Li Chengqian, the jade seal of the country, used it twice, but the talisman was not touched once.

"Yes!" Chang Lin's face was as usual, and he quickly took the talisman, the talisman of the Tang Dynasty is in the shape of a fish, in fact, it has something to do with the avoidance that Li Ke said before, after all, all dynasties and dynasties are tiger talismans.

After taking the talisman, Li Ke handed over the talisman in his hand, and then handed the talisman to Chang Lin, "Order Hou Jun to gather and dispatch 3,000 guards, go to the Qin Palace, find Tian Meng to get this information, and escort this information to Xizhou, there must be no mistakes on the way, if there is any problem halfway, this information would rather be destroyed than fall into the hands of the enemy." ”

The railroad tracks and related materials are all reprinted by Li Ke in Changlin, and the only books in the warehouse cannot be used casually.

"Yes!" Chang Lin turned around and left quickly with his things, and he had to go to this matter in person.

Hou Junji is now the secretary of the Ministry of War, and it is normal for this matter to be handed over to him.

Not long after Chang Lin left, a little eunuch walked in, "Your Highness, Ningquan Langjun has something to report." ”

"Oh? Let him in. Li Ke was a little surprised, is their calculation over? Ning Quan was one of the ten people sent by Tian Meng who were proficient in arithmetic, and they not only learned the modern complete abacus, but also modern bookkeeping, modern numerical methods, statistics and induction.

These can be said to be the elite of Yuelai Commercial Bank, over the years, in addition to many lecturers, Yuelai Commercial Bank has cultivated the most talents in arithmetic.

No way, when he didn't activate the warehouse before, Li Ke was good at this.

But it's also a good thing, math never goes out of style.

"I've seen Your Highness." Ning Quan quickly walked in from outside.

"It's over?" Li Ke looked at him and asked.

"Yes, Your Highness, we have counted all the data, the current data of the Tang Dynasty Ministry of Justice is quite different, Zhenguan nine years, about 870,000 of the Tang Dynasty Ministry of Civil Affairs can not be reconciled, Zhenguan eight years, there are 360,000 can not be reconciled, Zhenguan seven years, this number is 340,000 guan, Zhenguan six years is 270,000, Zhenguan five years is 120,000." Ning Quan's face was calm, and he directly bent down and saluted.

"Repeated?" Li Ke's face didn't change.

However, Li Tai's face next to him was a little ugly, although he was not the emperor or the prince, but this was their Li family's thing, these things were different, then someone must have embezzled.

Li Ke is very calm, although there is not much corruption during the Zhenguan period recorded in history, but it is not nothing, but it is just that the top officials of the Tang Dynasty are not as awesome as Daqing and Shen, but there must be corruption.

Moreover, after many of Datang's finances were decentralized, it was normal for low-level personnel to be corrupt.

"Yes, it's been double-counted." Ning Quan said.

"What about attrition? Has it already been calculated? Li Ke asked again, because most of the materials in the Datang treasury are composed of grain, silk, silk cotton, etc., so the Datang treasury has normal losses.

Of course, the loss is not so much, but there is definitely something.

"Yes, we have calculated it twice, and it is calculated from multiple angles, and all the incoming and outgoing expenditures of the treasury and the losses reported are correct, but the financial appropriations received by the other five ministries such as the Ministry of Works, as well as the money received by various officials and all the materials rewarded by His Majesty, cannot be compared with the expenditures." Ning Quan said seriously, "This is the relevant bill. ”

Li Ke nodded and signaled, the little eunuch over there was just about to go over, and Li Tai had already run over directly, "These moths!" Li Tai roared angrily as he took the bill from Ning Quan's hand, and then looked down.

Forehead...... After taking a look, Li Tai was a little embarrassed, what is this? I don't understand.

He hurriedly took it and handed the things in his hand to Li Ke, "Third brother, give it to you." ”

Li Ke took it and glanced at it, the various inputs on it have been recorded in great detail, and these data are definitely no problem from the account books of the Ministry of Civil Affairs that they have obtained, whether it is corrupt or not, there must be a problem.

After flipping through them, Li Ke put them aside, then raised his head and asked, "What about other data?" ”

"Your Highness, according to the grain tax data reported by the various provinces in the world, and the actual lack of food in the provinces and continents that some of the victims need disaster relief, as well as the statistics of the Ministry of Civil Affairs on some of the grain sold by the people in the past few years, after rough calculations, about two-threes of the arable land in the Datang Daozhou has not been cultivated." Ning Quan quickly reported.

Li Ke frowned, "Are you sure?" ”

"Yes, Your Highness." Ning Quan's face was calm, "However, this data is based on the grain on the market, the grain purchased and sold by the people, and the data of the imperial court disaster relief, the average grain output of all provinces in the world, and then calculated through the average calculation, which is not an accurate number." ”

Although Ning Quan said that it was not an accurate number, Li Ke knew that the data calculated based on these data, even if it was not accurate, was definitely not much different.

Anything can deceive, but math doesn't.

So there's definitely something wrong with that.

"You bring it up and I'll take a look." Li Ke asked him for something, and then looked at it carefully.

"Third brother, how is this calculated? How can it be calculated whether the people have planted or not? Li Tai was a little confused.

"In the past few years, it has not been a disaster year, and it is not a disaster year, and the average number of grain harvests in each province is about the same, according to the average number and the number of registered households, you can get the number of cultivated land in Datang, and then calculate the tax paid, as well as the food spent on disaster relief in some places, although it is not accurate data, but if the gap is too large, it can still be calculated." Li Ke gave Li Tai a general explanation.

Li Tai: "......"
