Konoha Hypocrite Uchiha Tonan

Chapter 286 Difficult task

What Su Mei said was right. If she was like Xiao Tao and carried any messy things with her, he would have slept in a separate bed with her.

Su Mei glanced at him and asked: "The two maids will stay with me for a while for training. After a while, I will let them stay with my mother. Do you have any objections?"

"No." Tangning shook her head simply. Living alone in the backyard would inevitably lead to boredom after a long time, so it was good to have two people to talk to.

However, he is still not used to the word "mother" coming from Su Mei's mouth.

Su Mei took off her hairpin, spread her hair loosely, and asked, "Is there anything else you want to say?"

Tangning was stunned, shook her head and said, "No more."

Su Mei gave him a roll of her eyes: "What are you doing standing around if you don't have any more? Go to bed!"

……

April, July, October, and the twelfth lunar month of each year are the busiest times for the household department.

Whether it is military salaries, official rewards, or funds allocated for natural disasters, all are recorded in the accounts of the Ministry of Accounts. If they are all accumulated until the end of the year and liquidated, it will be time-consuming and laborious. Therefore, the accounts of the Ministry of Accounts are calculated once a quarter and at the end of the year. It only needs to be summarized.

It was early October, and the Duzhi Yamen responsible for the accounting settlement had not yet received the accounts for the previous quarter, so it seemed a little idle.

"Did you see it yesterday? It was amazing!"

"Yes, I have never seen anyone faster than Mr. Tang."

"As expected of a three-yuan grade, I didn't even use an abacus to calculate the accounts..."

"Not only is there no need for abacus, Chief Zheng is obviously deliberately making things difficult, but he can give the answer immediately without even thinking about it. It is said that Chief Zheng had someone check it yesterday, and there is nothing wrong with the account book..."

……

The clerks in the Duzhi Yamen who had nothing to do gathered together in twos and threes in their respective rooms, talking in low voices.

The scene in Duzhi Yamen yesterday was witnessed by many people.

Director Tang's calculation speed was so fast and the results were so accurate that it shocked countless people's jaws.

All the officials in the yamen unanimously believed that Chief Tang was the fastest man in the history of the Ministry of Household Affairs. He was about to reach a new level and a new height. He was incredibly fast.

When Tang Ning came to the Ministry of Household Affairs for the second time, she clearly found that the atmosphere of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Hanlin Academy were indeed different.

When he was in the Hanlin Academy, he would go to the Yamen at midnight, and there would be people who were later than him.

Today he came to the household department a quarter of an hour early and found that almost everyone had arrived.

"Good morning, Mr. Tang!"

"I've met Mr. Tang."

……

When he walked into Duzhiyamen, the officials in the government office saluted him one after another.

In this Duzhi Yamen, besides Doctor Chen, he was the eldest. Before Doctor Chen arrived, Tang Ning sat back in her seat, took the abacus on the table and fiddled with it.

Yesterday, Tang Yaojing taught him step by step the fingering techniques for dialing the abacus. After he returned home, he found a few books and read them, and he had already learned a lot.

This thing is actually not difficult as long as you master the formula. The only difference is your proficiency.

Doctor Chen finally entered the check-in room before the clock was pressed, and bowed his hand to Tang Ning, "Good morning, Mr. Tang."

Tang Ning cupped her hands and returned the greeting: "Good morning, Mr. Chen."

After greeting each other, Tang Ning continued to practice abacus. Hube's wooden abacus was not as good as Tang Yaojing's white jade abacus, let alone Tang Yaojing's.

Tang Ning found a random account book and practiced for a while, and found that he could no longer make mistakes in calculations, but could not improve his speed, so Tang Ning put it down. With Tang Yaoji here, he didn't have to do it himself, so he put it down. You need to practice to be as skilled as her.

Not long after I put down my abacus, a figure walked in from the door.

Director Zheng walked up to Tang Ning, hugged his fists, and said apologetically: "Director Tang, I'm really sorry. I didn't know it was you yesterday. I offended you so much. I hope Mr. Tang will forgive you..."

Tang Ning waved her hand, not caring, and said, "It's okay. Chief Zheng is doing business, so there's nothing to offend."

Chief Zheng clasped his fists and said: "Mr. Tang is open-minded, I feel ashamed..."

After he apologized to Tang Ning, he walked to Dr. Chen and said, "Mr. Chen, there is something that requires you to go out in person."

Dr. Chen looked at him in surprise and asked, "Oh, what's the matter?"

Director Zheng said: "This year, the Ministry of Revenue has received several impeachment memorials. Several local officials in Shangzhou have impeached the governor of Shangzhou for embezzling taxes. They have just made an announcement and ordered the Ministry of Revenue to coordinate with the supervisory censor to go to Shangzhou to verify and investigate Shangzhou. The accounts of the past few years will be set off today. This is an errand for your branch. Han Shilang ordered me to come and inform you that you must summon ten planners today and go to Shangzhou with the supervisory censor tomorrow."

"Going to Shangzhou?" Chen Langzhong was startled and asked: "Although Shangzhou is not far from the capital, it will take at least half a month to check the accounts. If I take away ten planners, , the accounts of the last quarter of the household department will definitely not be completed before the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, how will you explain it to the court by then?"

Chief Zheng shook his head and wondered: "Your Excellency, the Vice Minister, also understands the difficulties on your side, but the matters in Shangzhou are equally urgent. We cannot let the censor go alone. In this way, we will also be unable to explain to the court."

Doctor Chen's face showed a tangled look, "This..."

……

Tang Ning was flipping through the accounts on the table in boredom. Doctor Chen hurried over and said, "Mr. Tang, I have something that I'm afraid I'm going to trouble you about."

Tang Ning raised her head, looked at him, and said, "Master Chen, speak directly if you have anything to say."

"There are some problems with the taxation in Shangzhou. I was ordered to take people to check. This trip to Shangzhou will take at least half a month to come back. During this time, everything about Duzhi Yamen will be left to Mr. Tang."

Tang Ning nodded and said, "No problem, Mr. Chen, feel free to go."

Doctor Chen showed a look of embarrassment on his face and said: "I know that the accounts of the previous quarter have to be calculated in the past few days, and there are few accounting historians in the government office. However, this trip to Shangzhou requires at least eight accounting historians. In the following days, Tang The boss is in the government office, but it will be a lot of hard work."

Tang Ning looked at him and said with a smile, "It's your duty, Mr. Chen, please be polite."

In a certain office of the Ministry of Revenue, Chief Zheng stood aside respectfully, looked at Tang Jing and said: "Sir, Duzhi Office has left ten accounting historians this time, and only half of the accounting historians are left. It is absolutely impossible to complete the accounts before the ninth day of the Lunar New Year. of."

As the head of the Household Department, he always accompanied Tang Jing carefully.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Chief Zheng hurriedly said: "If the young master feels that it is not safe, would you like me to think of some more solutions..."

"No need." Tang Jing waved his hand and said, "Mr. Chen's trip to Shangzhou this time is an order from the imperial court and has nothing to do with us. Don't add any more unnecessary extravagance."

Manager Zheng immediately bowed and said respectfully: "Young Master is still thoughtful..."

……

Doctor Chen left as soon as he said he wanted to, and left the Yamen early in the afternoon.

Tang Ning was waiting for the office in the duty room when a clerk suddenly ran in and said, "Mr. Tang, last season's accounts have been delivered."

Tangning walked out of the duty room and walked to the courtyard. She saw four large boxes placed in the courtyard.

The scribe looked at him with a bitter look on his face and said: "Sir, in the past when all the planners and planners in the government office were there, they could finish the calculations before the ninth day of the lunar month. This time Master Chen took away half of the planners and planners. It is simply impossible to complete it before the deadline..."

Tangning looked at him and asked, "Can't you hire some accounting clerks from outside to help?"

The scribe shook his head and said, "Sir, the account books of the household department are of great importance. Naturally, they cannot be allowed to be read by outsiders at will. If something goes wrong, no one can afford it, except for the accounting history of our household. Even people living in the other three rooms can’t borrow it.”

Tangning touched her chin: "Is that so..."

The scribe looked at him and asked, "Sir, what should we do?"

Tangning thought for a while and said, "Let's carry these boxes in first."

The scribe immediately asked: "What next?"

Tangning looked at him and said strangely: "Then we go home for dinner. We will be leaving the office soon. Aren't you hungry?"
