Seeing the shriveled old Shen Lie's face slightly red, embarrassed and pretending to be calm, Zhang Jingxiu couldn't help but want to laugh, it seemed...
Every move of this young man made her want to target him and tease him. Seeing his embarrassment made her feel happy.
Miss Zhang was snickering.
Shen Lie said angrily, "Big shopkeeper!"
You really have enough!
Seeing that Shen Lie was a little annoyed, Zhang Jingxiu also knew that it was too much, so he hurriedly covered his face with a folding fan out of habit, barely suppressing his smile.
But the fragrant shoulders wrapped in exaggerated Confucian clothes were still trembling, obviously...
She was still snickering.
Shen Lie's face darkened, and there was nothing he could do to her, so he covered his mouth and let out a few awkward coughs, then picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip.
Although Shen Lie was very thick-skinned after showing off his ugliness in front of a beautiful woman, his reddish face still couldn't help but feel hot.
Zhang Kui, who was sitting not far away, couldn't help but giggle as he looked at his young lady's trembling shoulders.
"haha."
But Zhang Kui still had some doubts in his heart. Is it so funny?
After some fun.
Yun'er finally settled the accounts, hurriedly walked out of the counter, handed the account book to Shen Lie's hand with her green-white hands, and then looked at it eagerly.
Shen Lie took the account book and looked at it carefully.
He is no stranger to accounting.
As a Beipiao who lives at the bottom of society and has been involved in a pyramid scheme for a while, Shen Lie knows a little about running accounts.
I only took a few cursory glances.
Shen Lie pointed at the account book and said softly: "I made a mistake here. Everyone's salary cannot be recorded in the cost. It must be paid in advance. Otherwise, the account will not be correct."
"It's not right here either."
Shen Lie held up a journal and pointed carefully: "The rent and repair costs of our store cannot be recorded in the cost, they must be spread equally every month."
This is a very simple double-entry accounting method. Shen Lie can do it with ease. In business, if you can't keep the accounts well, big problems will arise.
Yun'er listened carefully and said thoughtfully: "Oh..."
As Shen Lie corrected the mistakes in the account book one by one, Yun'er hurried into the counter and rearranged the accounts.
After a while.
Yun'er handed over the account book again.
After checking it, Shen Lie felt that there was no problem, so he handed the account book to Zhang Jingxiu, and then said respectfully: "Master, do you want to see this account book?"
Zhang Jingxiu quickly suppressed his smile and took the account book seriously with his slender hands. After only a few glances, his beautiful black eyebrows wrinkled.
She felt dazzled for a while, the input, appearance, cost...
It looks very complicated.
Zhang Jingxiu had no choice but to be patient, his eyes passing over the dense numbers, but his bright eyes couldn't help but become confused.
She was born in a family of chief ministers, and was influenced by her father and brothers since she was a child. Although she cannot be said to be proficient in arithmetic and accounting, she is by no means an amateur.
But……
This account book is really strange. It uses neither the traditional calculation method, nor the popular abacus algorithm, nor the numbers in traditional Chinese characters...
Instead, it is composed of strange symbols, which directly results in this account book looking like a book from heaven.
I can't understand it at all!
Zhang Jingxiu looked at it seriously for a moment, felt dizzy again, raised his head suspiciously, frowned and said, "What kind of ghost talisman is this?"
Shen Lie hurriedly said: "This is called a running account."
Zhang Jingxiu was stunned for a moment and then asked: "What about these?"
Shen Lie smiled and said: "These are called Arabic... heavenly numbers."
Tianfang Kingdom was the official name of the Arab Dynasty in the Ming Dynasty during this era.
Zhang Jingxiu's bright eyes were filled with mist again. She naturally knew about Tianfang Kingdom, but this number looked like a ghostly sign...
She has really never seen it before.
"Is it?"
Seeing Shen Lie's confident look, Zhang Jingxiu was a little unsure, so he could only say softly: "But, this..."
Seeing her hesitating, Shen Lie couldn't help feeling a little proud, so he said softly: "Yun'er, bring me a pen and ink."
In order to prove that this account book is true and valid.
Shen Lie simply picked up the writing brush and started writing and drawing Arabic numerals on a piece of paper used for accounting, starting from one plus one and making calculations.
For a moment, the only sound in the shop was Shen Lie's voice, or the soft sound of the brush falling on the rice paper, as a series of addition and subtraction calculation formulas were written out.
Shen Lie felt a little thirsty, so he put down his brush, picked up the tea bowl, and took a sip of herbal tea to moisten his dry throat.
Only then did I discover...
The beauty is very close, and the quiet breath is blowing into her nostrils. She is listening attentively with her back straight, and her bright eyes are shining with an indescribable look.
This serious and cute look is bright and smart, just like a primary school student who is listening carefully, but his bright eyes are still very blank.
Shen Lie smiled and said nothing, pretending not to know.
In this era where abacus calculations are popular, it is really difficult for her to understand the double-entry accounting method in this account book.
Shen Lie thought, if you want to understand this account book, you must at least have a junior high school degree.
Although our academic qualifications are not high, we have received nine-year compulsory education and have also worked in a pyramid scheme.
In this era when commerce is developed and abacus accounting is very popular, Shen Lie's accounting method may not have advantages, but it has great advantages.
First, it is easy to learn.
Second, it is simple, clear and very convenient.
And this is just the simplest addition and subtraction in primary school mathematics. Shen Lie thought, if I can tell the multiplication table.
Isn't that right?
So unconsciously, the breath of knowledge was flowing in the air.
Until the guard leader Zhang Kui couldn't hold it in any longer, he stood up and said softly: "Sir, it's getting late, we should go back home."
Zhang Jingxiu was awakened and woke up from his deep thoughts. Only then did he realize that the sun had set and his vision was somewhat blurred.
She rubbed her eyes and couldn't help but look at the account book again, feeling a little unclear in her heart, once again.
She was intellectually suppressed by this strange man.
With some dissatisfaction in Fang's heart, Zhang Jingxiu casually put the account book on the table, then stood up and straightened her wrinkled Confucian clothes.
It is impossible to admit defeat.
So, Miss Zhang raised her white neck with some reserve, pretending to be impatient and said: "Young master, I don't bother to ask about this business matter, you can make the decision."
That proud look seemed to say, don't bother me with such trivial matters as accounting books in the future, and I, Miss Zhang, will just pay dividends at the end of the year.
Shen Lie snickered in his heart, but did not reveal it and said quickly: "Hey."
While accompanying Miss Zhang outside, Shen Lie politely complimented: "Big shopkeeper, take your time... come again."
Seeing the young lady hurriedly get on her horse and drive away with a few guards, a bright smile appeared on Shen Lie's face.
At night, the Shen family.
Yun'er had already gone to bed after a tiring day.
After taking a hot bath, Shen Lie lay comfortably in the yard, looking at the stars in the sky with a wise look in his eyes.
The courtyard is quiet and peaceful.
Shen Lie's mind was also far away. He did not pay attention to the account book, but was making plans for the further development of the store.
In Shen Lie's view, the advantages of his small store are low price, unique taste, small profits and quick turnover, but the disadvantage is that the taste is too single and the profit margin is not high.
Shen Lie closed his eyes slightly and thought to himself, now that the braised cooking business has established a golden brand, it is time to increase the profit margin.
