Chapter 19 The prince's divine calculation, the wages are eight taels!
Compared to Qingzhi's shock, Qin Rushuang seemed very calm.
"Your Majesty, do you have any instructions?" Qin Rushuang raised her eyes and looked at Xie Xun.
The man in bright clothes and angry horse looks handsome and unrestrained. If you ignore the ugly face and the waving whip, it should be a beautiful picture.
"What are you doing out of the house?" Xie Xun asked.
"Why does the prince ask this?"
"...When the princess leaves the palace, the people around her should be chosen to be reliable, and the palace should have good guards..."
"Your Majesty." Qin Rushuang interrupted him: "Do you like me?"
Qin Rushuang's sudden question caught Xie Xun off guard. He was panicked for a moment, and then he realized what Qin Rushuang had asked.
Xie Xun, who had always had a cold temperament, had a look of discomfort on his face.
"I ask again, does the prince like me? Is it better to like me or Qin Fang?" Qin Rushuang looked at Xie Xun with interest.
When Xie Xun didn't answer, Qin Rushuang looked surprised: "Does the prince like me?"
"Of course not!" Xie Xun blurted out.
"What a coincidence, I don't like the prince either, so--what does it have to do with the prince where I go?"
"You!" Xie Xun was a little embarrassed by what she said, and whispered: "How inappropriate is it to talk about love and love in public!"
As he said that, he pulled Qin Rushuang towards the bank.
This bank is Qin Rushuang's property, and he recognizes it.
Qin Rushuang followed him to the bank obediently.
"Okay, there is no one here, Your Majesty." Qin Rushuang straightened her clothes: "I have some self-knowledge for the time being, and I know that Your Majesty must be very fond of my concubine. Coincidentally, I have also thought about it now. From now on, we will
Is it okay if the water from the well does not interfere with the water from the river?"
If it were before, Xie Xun would have breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Qin Rushuang say this, but now that he heard what he once wanted to hear, he was not as happy as he had imagined.
Xie Xun didn't know how to answer Qin Rushuang, so he simply shut up and stopped talking.
Qin Rushuang was also used to Xie Xun's silence. She waved her hand and said, "If the prince is willing to follow, then you can follow. Qingzhi, Qian Ertong, follow me to see the account books."
The manager of the bank is over fifty years old, but he is in good spirits and does not look old-fashioned at all.
I had long known that the young master was coming, and when he saw Qin Rushuang, he said with a smile on his face: "The princess is here?"
"Are the ledgers ready?"
"Everything is ready." The steward nodded and said with a smile: "It's just a bit too much. We have prepared six accountants for the princess. I don't know if we can finish it today."
As he spoke, he led people to the front of a room, where six accounting gentlemen lined up one after another with abacus in hand.
"Open the door."
As soon as the door to the room opened, although everyone was mentally prepared, they were still startled by the several shelves of account books.
"This is a project for the past five years. Princess, please?"
Without Qin Rushuang's further instructions, several accountants took their pens, ink, paper, inkstones and abacus, each found a seat and sat down, and began to check the account books.
It was Mr. Accountant who had the hard work in checking the accounts. Qin Rushuang couldn't sit still for a while, so she stood up and went around to check the accounts.
I saw that one of the accountants was particularly fast, and he was making calculations so fast that Qingzhi felt dazzled just looking at them.
Before the abacus was finished on that page, Qian Ertong next to him suddenly said: "One hundred and thirty-seven taels."
The accounting clerk raised his head in surprise, as if he couldn't believe it, and after speeding up the calculation, he exclaimed: "Sir, you are really good at mental arithmetic! Which company are you from?"
Qin Rushuang also raised her eyebrows and looked at Qian Ertong: "Do you know abacus?"
Qian Ertong scratched his head and said sheepishly: "I'm a little sensitive to numbers."
Qin Rushuang turned over another page: "Where is this place?"
"Two hundred and forty-eight taels."
"What about here?"
"Sixty-five taels a penny."
Qin Rushuang's eyes were even more appreciative: "Not bad, but..."
"Sixty-seven taels." Xie Xun, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "The second calculation was wrong."
Qin Rushuang turned around and said, "Well, the prince is also very powerful."
Xie Xun raised the corners of his mouth, and then felt a little annoyed. He was not a cashier, so how could he be happy because of Qin Rushuang's compliment.
However, Qin Rushuang's admiration for Qian Ertong who appeared out of nowhere really made Xie Xun very unhappy, so for the next time, the two of them began to do mental calculations as if they were struggling.
"This page costs three hundred and forty-six taels."
"Here are two hundred and fifty-eight taels."
...
In this way, you came and I went back and forth several times, and the accountant simply stopped counting and just watched the two of them reporting the numbers, and was responsible for recording it himself.
"Okay." Qin Rushuang interrupted the two of them: "Qian Ertong is good. From tomorrow on, he will learn from the manager of the bank. As for the subsequent arrangements... I will think about it later."
"Yes!" Qian Ertong was secretly happy. Is the princess planning to reuse him?
Seeing the princess talking to her men, the accountant lowered his head and continued to count, and the room was filled with the sound of abacus clicking.
After a long time, Qin Rushuang suddenly heard Xie Xun's voice behind her: "What about me?"
Qin Rushuang is so funny, is it possible that the majestic prince is here to seek her praise?
Bad thoughts arose, and Qin Rushuang suddenly asked the manager: "If a man as good at arithmetic as Wang Ye becomes the accountant, how much can he pay per month?"
The person in charge was an individual, and said with a smile: "Don't dare! The prince is a person who does big things! How can you stick to money! But... if a person as talented as the prince is to be the accountant, the monthly salary must be at least
Eight taels."
Eight taels.
Enough for a family of five to chew for several months.
Qin Rushuang coughed: "Have you heard it, Your Majesty? Your Majesty's fortune is eight taels per month!"
Xie Xun:……
He shouldn't be asking for trouble!
However, he had observed Qin Rushuang's attitude towards Qian Ertong for a long time, and it seemed that he just admired Qian Ertong. He felt much better and did not want to continue to make trouble for himself here, so he left on the pretext of something happening in the army.
After Xie Xun left, everyone felt much relieved. Although Xie Xun hardly spoke, for ordinary people like them, the prince's pressure was still very great.
Qingzhi looked at Qian Ertong with a softer look: "I didn't expect you to be so good at mental arithmetic, and the prince, the prince is so good too!"
The manager shook his head, has this girl really been serving the princess since she was a child? Why is she so careless!
If there is anyone here who is the best at arithmetic, it is the princess who watches the play silently.
When Qin Rushuang was one year old, she captured Zhou, first with the horse whip and second with the abacus.
She got tired of playing with that little abacus when she was less than eight years old. For no other reason than Qin Rushuang no longer needs abacus.
You can tell the result by looking at it, and you can count the pearls with your hands.
Everyone only knew that the daughter-in-law of the General's Mansion had extraordinary martial arts skills and a dashing whip, but they didn't know that Qin Rushuang was also extremely intelligent and naturally astute.
The manager of the bank looked back and forth at the backs of Qin Rushuang and Xie Xun. After Xie Xun left, he smiled and said: "Mrs. Qin told the old slave earlier that she was worried about the princess and the prince... Now it seems that the relationship between the princess and the prince is very good.
Na!"
"That's natural! The princess is pregnant with her little grandson! Of course the relationship is good!" Qingzhi said confidently, her princess is loved by everyone, how could anyone not like her princess!
Qin Rushuang's face looked a little uncomfortable. Why did everyone think there was nothing wrong with their relationship? It was obvious that Xie Xun was dissatisfied with her.
Afraid that the conversation would bring up any embarrassing topics, she hurriedly avoided it: "Okay, there shouldn't be any big problem with the number of accounts. Even if there is a problem, it shouldn't be hidden from the eyes of the supervisor."
The steward stroked his meticulously groomed beard and said: "Most of them have no problems, and even if they do, they are minor problems. Accounting is not completely clear to begin with. You must know that if the water is clear, there will be no fish."
"But..." the steward handed over his hand: "The princess is here with the old slave. There are some account books here that are quite problematic."
Qin Rushuang followed the steward to the last shelf and randomly took out a book with the source of the account book written on it: "Du Shi Shipping".
Qin Rushuang paused while holding the account book. The biggest problem turned out to be shipping...
