There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

So he decided to inquire about the reality of the Zhen family. This was the time when he had just made a decision.

Seeing the pottery merchant asking him about his business, Zhen Mi bowed her head and thought for a while, then said with a smile, "It's not impossible, how about this, my little sister will sort it out tomorrow and show it to the husband, so that the husband may have some preparations in his mind."

Knowing that Zhen Mi wanted to sort out the account information, the potter immediately agreed.

Zhen Mi returned to her residence, but an entourage came to Zhen Mi's side and said in a low voice: "Miss, these people today don't seem to be ordinary merchants."

The weather was a bit cold, Zhen Mi wrapped the cloak around her body, looked up at the weather, a trace of exhaustion appeared on her face.

Of course she knew that these people were not ordinary merchants, and she naturally knew who this Mr. Tao was.

She knows better what kind of situation she is in now.

"Who do you think they are?" Zhen Mi asked with a sigh.

The servant behind her was also a ranger, and before being taken in by the Zhen family, he was well-informed and discerning.

He thought carefully for a while: "Miss, the handsome man who talked with you today is handsome, but wise and restrained. I really can't see through it, but those subordinates who follow him try their best to cover up and pretend They are members of the caravan, but I can tell that those people have a murderous spirit, and they are not so heavy, maybe they are rangers or members of the army."

Zhen Mi sighed lightly, he could naturally see clearly what the servant said.

She came for this man.

Although she didn't want to do this, someone grabbed the lifeblood of her Zhen family.

But speaking from the heart, this Mr. Tao is really a gentleman, just like the rumors.

……

On the second day, Zhen Mi asked someone to prepare a part of the account book about the Zhen family's livestock and horse farm on the border of Qingzhou, and asked the pottery merchant to come and read it.

The potter looked at the thick slips and slips that Zhen Mi had piled up on the table...

But it was all dusty.

The potter picked up a volume, unfolded it, read it carefully for a while, and frowned involuntarily.

The above bookkeeping method dazzled the potter, and almost threw up.

On a certain day in a certain year, a certain horse farm entered a hundred new horses, and 28 died of illness in the next month, and ten mares became pregnant in the next month, and then gave birth to so many ponies. how many horses survived...

The potter looked trembling all over.

"What, what is this?" The potter turned his head to look at Zhen Mi in surprise, and asked in surprise.

Zhen Mi looked at the pottery merchant suspiciously: "This is the account book for my Zhen family's livestock in Qingzhou."

The potter frowned: "What do you call it an account book? Isn't this just a running account? Cao Ang's writing is more fluent than yours."

Zhen Mi was a little unconvinced when she heard the words, she looked at Tao Shang and said, "Mr. Tao said this, since the young girl has been sensible, she has seen and observed this kind of ledger."

The pottery merchant blinked, somewhat recalling what happened back then.

It seems that Mi Zhen also used this kind of written bookkeeping method at the beginning, but after she handed over the tabular bookkeeping method to him, Mi Zhen began to implement the tabular bookkeeping method in Dow Thirteen.

One is for convenience, the other is for counting accounts, and the third is to prevent corruption.

This ordinary way of keeping accounts is simply an advanced crime tool for stealing, cheating, and corrupting ink.

The potter sighed softly, then took out a clean bamboo slip, and drew a form on it stroke by stroke.

Immediately afterwards, Tao Shang calculated the information that Zhen Mi had given him with this slip of paper, the increase in the number of a racecourse in the past two years and the entry of transactions into the account, including the usual costs and expenses, and finally handed it to her.

Zhen Mi looked carefully for a while, but showed a surprised expression.

Chapter 675 Complement each other

Zhen Mi looked at the tabular accounts in her hands in amazement, and her heart was agitated.

Although she is young, she has many years of business experience, and her sensitivity to accounts and figures is naturally far beyond ordinary people.

Zhen Mi is naturally familiar with the accounting method of the journal, and she knows more or less the disadvantages of it during the years in charge of the family business.

On the surface, the accounting method developed by pottery merchants is just a different form, which can clearly record the number of horses, but this is only the benefit reflected in this way of counting horses. In terms of accounts, the benefits are far beyond this trivial matter.

The most important thing in doing business is the five characters of purchase, sale, withdrawal, storage and management. In ancient business, the word refund may not be used in the business classics, but purchase, sales and storage, including damage, loss, waste, etc., still exist, and there are no Under the system of system management, all of these must be managed and processed by people.

And the biggest problem with this mechanism is greed and deficit.

Household slaves hired by ancient merchants needed to borrow money and things from the master when they had something to do or needed at home. If they could not borrow, they would guard and steal.

However, with the accounting method of the journal method, in the case of inaccurate calculations, it is inevitable to lose money, goods and things. However, human energy is limited. If you want to thoroughly investigate the financial and material resources invested, it is far worse than losing There are many things, so the gains outweigh the losses.

With such a big business of the Zhen family, the annual loss in this area alone is huge.

But if this bookkeeping method is popularized and implemented in commercial banks now,

The corner of Zhen Mi's mouth curled up into a happy smile: "If you use this method, you can clearly see where there is a profit, where it is a loss, and who has passed through it, and there will be no mistakes or omissions."

Seeing Zhen Mi's quick reaction, the pottery merchant said, "There must still be shortcomings and omissions. It is said that there are policies at the top and countermeasures at the bottom. There is always a process similar to evolution between those who manage people and those who are managed. As your level rises, your opponent's level will also gradually increase under your leadership, but at least at this stage, you should be the one to win completely."

Zhen Mi looked at the potter in astonishment, shook her head and said, "I don't understand Mr.

"It's right if you don't understand."

Zhen Mi didn't understand the mysteries of the Ziwu Maoyou in the Tao merchant's words, and she didn't want to understand. She just happily played with the novel accounting method that the Tao merchant gave him, with an excited look on her face.

"Can Mr. Tao teach me this carefully?" Zhen Mi asked a little nervously.

In fact, she was not quite sure whether the pottery merchant would teach her the core of this set of bookkeeping methods. After all, there are rare goods to live in. These days, the apprentice who taught the master to starve to death, even if he is a gentleman, there is no one in the world who is truly so selfless.

"Of course." The potter said with a smile, "I'm giving it to you in the hope that you can learn it, and then show me your Zhen family's livestock accounts in this way to show me your original accounts. I have a headache."

Zhen Mi didn't expect the pottery merchant to agree so readily, and while she was happy, she was also slightly worried.

"Don't Mr. Tao have any requirements?"

The potter pondered for a while, and then began to look Zhen Mi up and down.

Zhen Mi blushed instantly.

"Is there a request, there is one." The potter said slowly.

Zhen Mi bit her lips tightly, and said in a low voice, "Say it"

"No matter how big or small the horse purchase business between you and the Huns is, I will make a [-]% profit."

Zhen Mi was dumbfounded when she heard this.
