Chapter two hundred and ninety second accounting completed
Duzhi Yamen's account settlement is progressing at a rapid pace, and the accountants' enthusiasm has exceeded Tang Ning's expectations. They took the initiative to work overtime until late at night. At this rate, the first round of accounting will be completed before leaving the Yamen tomorrow at the latest. Bookmark this site
Without the most tedious work of sorting and sorting, every subsequent pass will be faster.
In this way, Tang Ning didn't have to worry too much about the accounts. After leaving the Yamen, Tang Yaoyao and Xiu'er were already waiting outside.
When the three of them walked towards Tiantianju, Tang Yaoyao asked in a low voice: "Do you think this method is acceptable?"
"It should be possible." Tangning nodded and said, "You don't know Xiu'er's abilities yet?"
Xiu'er patted her chest and promised, "Don't worry, miss, I won't reveal anything."
Tang Yaoyao thought for a while and then asked: "Then can we take my aunt out in the future?"
Tangning shook her head and said, "No, I can only come out once in a while."
If a stranger frequently comes in and out of the Tang Mansion, even if he changes his appearance, it will definitely arouse others' suspicion.
In Tiantianju, Xiu'er was sent to the backyard. Tang Yaoyao sat in Su Mei's room, looking at the big rag doll on her bed, and asked: "Why does this doll look familiar?"
Tang Ning took a sip of tea, walked out of the yard, and said, "Xiao Tao, let me play with your Xiao Qing again..."
Xiao Tao was not the only one in the yard, but the old woman was also sitting on the stone bench.
Tang Ning was walking in the yard when the old woman glanced at him and asked, "Boy, I heard that you encountered some trouble at the Ministry of Household Affairs?"
Tangning stopped and said, "It's a small trouble, it doesn't bother you."
"A little trouble?" The old woman glanced at him and said, "A sheep entering a tiger's mouth is considered a little trouble?"
Tangning looked at her and asked, "What do you mean?"
The old woman said disdainfully: "Prince Duan's people are all over the household. If you are not careful, there will be disaster. Do you actually think it is a small trouble?"
Tang Ning thought for a while and said, "The old man's news is a bit out of date. Minister Wei has been transferred. The Tang family only has two principals at most. What kind of disaster will it cause?"
The old woman sneered and said, "Did the old woman just talk about the Tang family?"
Tangning was stunned, looked at the old woman, and asked, "What does the old man mean?"
…
In the room, Su Mei was holding the baby and lying on the bed. Tang Yaoyao was sitting at the table, glanced at her and curled his lips and said: "You are so old, but you are still so childish, like a child..."
Su Mei smiled and said: "You are not young anymore, don't you look like a child?"
When she said this, her eyes glanced at Tang Yaoyao's chest intentionally or unintentionally. Tang Yaoyao was stunned, suddenly stood up, and said angrily: "What do you mean!"
"Miss, come and take a look..." At this time, Xiu'er's voice came from outside the door, her tone full of pride.
Tang Yaoyao walked out of the room, looked at a strange woman next to Xiu'er, and said with some disbelief: "Aunt, is it really you?"
Su Mei walked out of the room, her expression changed, and she said, "It's so amazing. If it weren't for her clothes, I almost wouldn't recognize her."
Tang Yaoyao was stunned on the spot and said uncertainly: "Mother?"
Su Mei looked at her with a smile and said, "Miss Tang, you should call me aunt."
…
Facts have proved that Xiu'er is a real show, and Tang Ning admires her greatly.
Although she didn't turn decay into a magical weapon like the disguise technique in the novel, with her hands, Tang Ning couldn't even recognize her own mother, let alone others.
Even Tang Yaoyao was shocked by Xiu'er and remained silent on the way back.
When he returned home, Tang Yaoyao suddenly looked at him and asked, "Why did Su Mei call her aunt mother?"
Tangning looked at her and explained, "My mother recognized her as her daughter, and she is now my god sister."
Tang Yaoyao glanced at him and said in a complicated tone: "Why do you fuck my sister so much?"
Tangning looked at her and said, "I also have a godmother, Xiaoxiao. If you want, you can call me brother..."
"Bah, who wants to be your god sister!"
Tang Yaoyao secretly spat, stamped his toes, and flew over the courtyard wall lightly.
Tangning curled her lips. She didn't want to scream, but he didn't care about it. Whoever wanted to be her godbrother would have to be tortured to death by her...
In Tianranju, Su Mei walked out of the room, looked at the old woman in the yard and said, "What did you just say to him?"
"What are you worried about?" The old woman glanced at her and said, "I just reminded him that there is a tiger in Hubu, lest he be careless and get killed in Hubu."
Su Mei frowned and asked, "Do you want to remind him or use him?"
"Whether it's a reminder or a use..." the old woman looked at her and said, "He has taken advantage of us so much, and he should be compensated. Is there any reason in this world to just borrow without repaying?"
Su Mei was dissatisfied and said: "That old fox in Hubu has not shown any clues for so many years. He has only been in Hubu for a few days, how could he..."
"Don't you know how capable your godbrother is?" The old woman glanced at her and deliberately emphasized the words "godbrother".
…
Tang Ning was sitting in her hotel room. The results for last quarter's accounts to be calculated this time were already available yesterday. The second calculation was completed this morning. There was a slight difference between the results and the first calculation. After the third calculation,
By that time, the reason had been found. It was that a calculator had miscalculated a data. After correcting it, he calculated it again and found it to be accurate.
He waved to a scribe, who immediately came over. Tang Ning handed him the accounting book and said, "Take it to the two ministers."
The clerk nodded in agreement and walked out of the check-in room holding the account book.
He walked to the other duty room, looked at the tired-looking Duzhifang Jishi, and said, "Everyone has worked hard these days."
"It's not hard, it's not hard..."
"It's hard work, Mr. Tang!"
"It's all thanks to Mr. Tang that the calculation can be completed so early this time..."
…
Zhongjishi immediately stood up and saluted, his face full of respect and admiration.
Tang Ning waved her hand and said, "This is all thanks to all of you. I'm going to treat you today. After I go to the office, I'll invite you all to have a drink at Tiantianju."
"Thank you, sir!"
"I never thought that I, Old Chen, would be able to have a meal at Tiantianju in this life..."
"This time, we can finally see what this natural residence looks like..."
While Ji Shimen of Duzhi Fang was cheering, in another room, Han Ming, the right servant of the Ministry of Revenue, stood up in surprise and asked: "Is it over so soon?"
The same accounts in previous years, with nearly 20 people in Duzhufang, and accounting day and night, it took nearly ten days to complete the errand. This time, the number of people in Duzhufang was reduced by half, and the time was not extended, but shortened by half.
, it’s really unbelievable.
He waved his hand and said, "Bring it over and let me take a look."
The scribe immediately handed over the account book.
Before officially handing it over, Tang Ning had asked them to convert the last delivered book into Chen Guotong's Chinese characters. Han Ming flipped through it and saw that the account book was in good order. He murmured: "It's incredible, it's really incredible, Mr. Tang
It’s too fast…”
He handed the account book to Fang Zhe and asked, "Master Fang, do you want to see it?"
Fang Zhe waved his hand and said, "As long as Mr. Han thinks there are no problems, I won't read it."
Han Mingdao: "There shouldn't be any big difference. The tax revenue is about the same as last year. The decrease in expenditures should be related to the reduction in the amount of money allocated by the Ministry of Water Resources. Speaking of which, it is also because of the Tang Dynasty that the court can save money."
These are hundreds of thousands of taels of silver."
He looked at Fang Zhe and said, "If Mr. Fang thinks there is no problem, I will submit this book to Mr. Shangshu."
Fang Zhe nodded and agreed.
At the same time, other rooms in the household department were also in a state of excitement.
"The Du branch has already finished the calculation. How many days has it been?"
"Isn't this true? Doctor Chen took away half of the history, and they can shorten the time by half. How is this possible?"
"Oh, you have forgotten that there is Director Tang in the Du branch. Do you think that the number one scholar in Sanyuan and the third place is just like us?"
"Master Tang is mighty and worthy of being the fastest man in the household department..."
…
While the entire household department was in a state of turmoil, Tang Ning was thinking about things while waiting in the office.
Although the accounting matter has come to an end, there is still one thing in Tang Ning's mind that she has not let go of.
The old woman didn't tell him who the tiger in the household department was. It was impossible for Fang Zhe, Han Shilang didn't look like him, Qian Shangshu..., it seemed unlikely.
According to what the old woman said, King Duan was so secretive. He once occupied at least two of the three ministers and two assistant ministers in the household department. In this way, the household department was like his back garden.
..., so to speak, the things he discovered were not so strange.
The water in the household department is very deep. It involves the country's money and food. It is difficult for ordinary people to get into it. If you act rashly without a strong background, you may be chewed up to the dregs.
Tang Ning didn't think his background was very deep. He was from a small family and didn't have a reliable boss. Since the matter was huge, he planned to stay put until the target was determined.
Guessing that the time for going to the office was coming soon, he packed up his things, and after the gong sounded, he got up and prepared to go back.
At this moment, a scribe hurriedly walked in and said: "Master Tang, Shilang Fang asked you to come over."
