The seven hundred and seventieth chapters of one off the world know (5)
The door of the Taicang silver warehouse was opened, and there was no glittering gold or silver inside. On the contrary, against the broad daylight outside, the inside of the silver warehouse seemed a bit dark.
At first glance, I thought I was in prison.
But once we walked in and our eyes adjusted to the difference in optical fiber between the inside and outside of the warehouse, it didn't feel so dark at all.
After entering the library door, there is a not too wide passage. On the walls on both sides of the passage, a candle as thick as a wrist is burning every two steps.
Going further inside is a warehouse area. Inside the warehouse are boxes stacked on shelves. When you open the boxes, you will find stacks of silver ingots arranged neatly and orderly. Under the light of candlelight, it almost makes people’s eyes burn.
Dazzling eyes.
Theoretically speaking, each silver ingot should have a fixed weight, and the number of silver ingots in each box is the same, so the weight of silver in each box should be the same. Just count the number of boxes and you can get it
The amount of gold and silver in the vault.
However, Zhu Ping'an still insisted that Liu Tangguan and Kubing open each box and take the trouble to take out the silver and weigh it.
Before the weighing, Zhu Ping'an also specially checked the scales and weighed himself. The amount was consistent with the amount weighed at the Linhuai Marquis Mansion before coming. It can be basically believed that the scales in the Taicang Bank have not been tampered with.
Zhu Pingan divided the Ku soldiers into three groups. One group was responsible for opening the box and taking out the silver, one group was responsible for carrying and weighing, and the other group was responsible for putting the weighed silver back into the box.
Zhu Ping'an assigned a Dongchang Fanzi to supervise each group of Treasury soldiers. Dongchang Fanzi represented Emperor Jiajing, and with their participation in supervision, the entire inventory process was as if it had been notarized, and the results had strong credibility.
After weighing a box, Zhu Ping'an and Liu Tangguan recorded the numbers respectively, and each was supervised by a Dongchang fanzi.
After weighing a box, Dongchang Fanzi, who was responsible for supervising the third group of Ku soldiers, affixed a seal with numbers on it. This was a seal made by Zhu Pingan in advance, from "one" to "three hundred"
"In this way, you can know how many boxes have been weighed, saving you the trouble of summarizing and counting the boxes at the end.
There were thirty boxes of silver in the first warehouse area. Among them, the fineness of the silver ingots in eight boxes was obviously worse than that of other boxes. At first glance, it was not pure silver. Zhu Pingan specially marked the seals of these eight boxes of silver with a "?"
, to show the difference, when recording the numbers, a "?" is also added at the end as a difference.
By the time the first warehouse area was finished, it was already noon.
Someone from outside brought in food. Zhu Pingan asked people to eat in batches. However, Zhu Pingan did not eat because he was worried that someone would tamper with the food. In addition, Zhu Pingan ate a lot in the morning just to be empty at noon today.
inventory.
After lunch, the effect of Panku was much higher.
The second warehouse area is the same as the first warehouse area, with thirty boxes of silver, but there is a deviation in the quality of the silver in this warehouse area.
The third warehouse area also contained the same thirty boxes of silver, but among them, fifteen boxes of silver were of different quality.
The fourth reservoir area...
At about four o'clock in the afternoon, Zhu Ping'an and the others finally checked all the warehouse areas, bank vaults, and treasury. They took stock of everything. There were a total of 172 boxes of silver and 87 boxes of gold.
After the inventory is completed, you can go out. As for the data, you still have to organize it outside.
When leaving the bank, it is more strict than when entering the bank.
People inside went out one by one.
The court officials at the door also checked one by one and were very serious and responsible.
"Quack~quack~"
Kubing came to the door, squatted down, stretched out his hands, exposed his ribs, then slightly bent his legs and jumped hard twice, clapped his hands on top of his head, and quacked loudly like a duck.
"come out."
After the dance, he shouted again and stepped over a bench in front of him to prove that he did not carry any silver coins.
The court official then carefully inspected Ku Bing's shorts, and then allowed Ku Bing to go out.

Next one
After checking countless items, the bent official was about to check the shorts of the man who was going out. The moment he stretched out his hand, he suddenly saw a cucumber dangling in front of his eyes.
What the fuck?!
What's this?!
Naked?!
Eye-catching!
The official almost spat out a mouthful of old blood and was about to curse when he suddenly remembered Zhu Ping'an who was naked before entering the warehouse.
"Master Zhu, please."
The hall official immediately stood up respectfully and extended his hand to invite Zhu Ping'an to come out of the warehouse door.
Zhu Pingan was not polite and stepped out. He was not even wearing any shorts, so there was no need for this last step of inspection.
After stepping out of the warehouse door, Zhu Pingan quickly went to the dressing room and put on his official uniform again.
I'm not an exhibitionist. I took off my clothes just now for the purpose of inventory. After the inventory was over, I naturally had to put my clothes back on.
More than half of the officials who had watched the ceremony in the morning had already left. Prince Yu and Princess Ning'an had left early. Now there were only a dozen officials left outside.
Zhu Pingan put on his official uniform and walked out of the dressing room. The bloody sword followed him, never leaving Zhu Pingan.
"Haha, Zihou, have you finished taking inventory?" Zhang Guanku and others outside the door looked at Zhu Ping'an with complicated expressions.
"Well, the data has been recorded, but the final statistics have not been done yet. Where is our accounting office in Taicang? Please come out and help us calculate the data." Zhu Pingan nodded, then showed them the rice paper filled with numbers in his hand, and then
Pointing to Tang Guan Liu who had just walked out, "Tang Guan Liu also has the same data in his hand."
After Liu Tangguan also changed his clothes, Zhu Ping'an followed Zhang Guanku and others to an office in Taicang Bank, accompanied by Dripping Blood Sword and other Dongchang fanzi.
Soon, the five senior Taicang accountants including "Ghost Zhang" and "Ghost Zhang" were also invited in. After walking into the room, after saluting, "Ghost Zhang" turned his attention to Zhu Pingan and glanced at this young man.
A sixth-rank imperial official, with pride and contempt in his eyes.
This is the confidence of an accountant at the top of the accounting pyramid.
When it comes to writing eight-part essays, "Gui Shou Zhang" knows that he is not as good as Zhu Pingan, but when it comes to making accounting statistics, "Gui Shou Zhang" has ten thousand reasons to be proud. He believes that he can only use Zhu Pingan's help.
A handbook account can defeat Zhu Ping'an.
After arriving at the accounting office, Zhu Ping'an didn't say much. He simply said that he asked Tang Guan Liu to hand over the data he collected to the accounting office, and they asked Tang Guan Liu to count which piece of data he had.
piece of data.
Both data are the same. After the statistics are completed, check whether the statistical results are consistent.
