Although Xiao Ruxue is actually not sick at all, there is no harm in eating more of sweet and refreshing food like rock sugar snow pear.
After feeding Xiao Ruxue, shopkeeper Xue Da of Qingxue Study happily went to work.
After Xiao Ruxue left, Xiao Ye came over, looked at Xu Qing and cupped his hands and said: "Brother Xu, there is a rather troublesome thing about Guoshang..."
After Xu Qing and Xiao Ye sat down, Xu Qing asked: "What's going on? Brother Xiao, tell me."
Xiao Ye said: "Nowadays, due to humanistic and customary issues, national businessmen in various places can make a lot of money, but other places can only maintain a simple balance of payments. But in any case, these accounts are extremely trivial and numerical.
There are so many, and it is very cumbersome for several accountants to make statistics and calculations, and it is impossible to calculate the profits and costs in a precise manner. They can only calculate the big ones."
As he said that, Xiao Ye sighed and said: "If we only have a general idea but not a precise one, there will be a lot of holes to be exploited! It is impossible to know where the shopkeeper has embezzled some money, and there are many people together.
It is also easy to confuse the accounts when counting with counters. Alas, it is really difficult. It would be great if Mr. Zhuyeqing's accountant had the skills of those officials in the Hubu Duzhi Yamen..."
After Xiao Ye finished speaking, Xu Qing was shocked. Good guy, Xiao Ye really dares to think, where is the Duzhi Yamen? The place where the Account Department checks and manages accounts must gather the people who are the most proficient in accounting.
, coupled with the fact that Han Chuang studied hard, he could enter Duzhi Yamen and become an official.
Where did Zhuyeqing's accountant come from? Twenty taels of silver can pay for a lot!
If Mr. Zhuyeqing's accountant could be qualified enough to serve as a yamen official, all the major accountants in Zhuyeqing would have gone to take part in the imperial examination!
Today's Guoshang seems to be huge, but in fact it is just a newborn baby. Although there are branches in various places, they are not deeply rooted after all. Most of the shopkeepers they appoint are recruited, let alone the imperial government. In addition to income,
Besides, many places are not as good as some big businesses.
Of course, it takes a lot of time for a business to grow from a small one to a big one, and there is nothing Xu Qing can do about it...
But if we just talk about calculations and auditing... maybe there are ways to improve it.
…
afternoon
Xu Qing called some of the accountants from Qingxue Study and Zhuyeqing together, intending to train them on some methods that could be used to improve the accounting. The remaining accountants would do whatever they want to do, and everything would continue as usual.
It's really not easy to make money these days, and the chairman has to personally train his employees.
Do you know what he's about to give up?
What he is about to give up is an afternoon of fishing! If these people can't learn, it will be a big loss!
Tables and chairs have been set up in the room, which looks like a private school. Most of these accounting gentlemen are in their thirties. It was twenty years ago to attend such a private school. Now
Then again, there is really a sense of nostalgia in it.
There is only one table in the middle of the first row. This seat was added by Xiao Ruxue herself. It is a seat that belongs exclusively to her.
Xu Qing had always thought that Xiao Ruxue would hate arithmetic. Unexpectedly, this time he actually offered her to learn arithmetic. It was really strange.
But it’s okay, the more children learn arithmetic, the smarter they will become. This is what Xu Qing’s Mathematical Olympiad teacher told him when he was in primary school in his previous life.
…
First, Xu Qing distributed an abacus to each shopkeeper, which Xu Qing asked Xiao Ye to ask several carpenters in Yongzhou City to make.
Xu Qing then started to teach simple abacus. Abacus is not as troublesome as calculating chips. A small square plate can calculate data that cannot be calculated ten times or a hundred times using chips.
Moreover, the upper limit of this abacus is also very high!
The lower part can be used to calculate addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, and the upper part can be used to calculate nuclear bomb data!
If used well, maybe Xu Qing can make a nuclear bomb with his hands in this era!
Okay...yy is too much...
However, although it is impossible for Xu Qing to actually rub a nuclear bomb with his hands, this also intuitively demonstrates the primitive but powerful computing power of the abacus, a counting tool that has not been completely eliminated even in Xu Qing's era.
How many beads per frame, the upper limit of computing power per second depends entirely on the operator's personal hand speed!
The design is very ginkgo and very easy to use!
In addition, in order to simplify calculations, Xu Qing also popularized Arabic numerals for people here to count. After all, using Chinese characters has too many strokes, which affects the calculation speed.
It will undoubtedly be much easier to transcribe the final data using uppercase Chinese characters after calculating it.
As for where these numbers came from? Xu Qing can only say that he figured them out by himself.
Are you really going to explain to them that these are Arabic numerals? They probably won’t understand, and the name is too hard to pronounce and doesn’t fit in with Da Chu’s naming habits.
Xu Qing spent more than an hour explaining to them the use of the abacus and simple operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. As for other arithmetic methods, it is estimated that even if Xu Qing teaches them now, they will not be able to use them, and it will be a waste of Xu Qing.
Precious fishing time.
Since there was no blackboard, Xu Qing had to order a piece of paper on the wall to write explanations.
During this period of time, Xiao Ruxue listened the most attentively and kept looking at Xu Qing with her big black and bright eyes.
Xu Qing then gave them several sets of large and irregular data to perform calculations to test the results.
If it were in the past, they might not have any results if they calculated these huge data with abacus for an hour, but now with the addition of abacus, it is obviously much faster.
Xiao Ruxue was still very young. In later generations, she would still be a junior high school student carrying a schoolbag to go to school. Her ability to accept new things was obviously much better than those thirty-year-old accountants sitting a few rows behind!
But fortunately, most of these accountants are scholars who have not passed the imperial examination. They have some cultural background and are not very slow to learn.
During this time, Xu Qing was walking around in this room, like an invigilator.
The expressions on the faces of the accounting gentlemen are also different. Some have relaxed expressions, others have serious expressions, and some even switch back and forth between these two expressions!
At this moment, Xiao Ruxue put down her brush and bent her eyes and said, "Xu Qing, Xu Qing! I'm done!"
Xu Qing walked over and checked the data calculated by Xiao Ruxue. They were all correct and could be rewarded with a small red flower.
Xu Qing put the test paper back on the table and said: "Everything is correct, very impressive! Can I make fried chicken legs for you later?"
Xiao Ruxue nodded vigorously and said: "Okay!"
After Xiao Ruxue walked out of the examination room, Xu Qing looked at the accountants and said: "Customer Xue, who is only fourteen years old, has already completed the calculation and is absolutely right. We are all educated people, so don't lag behind a child."
, there are still ten minutes left in the exam...ahem...the time for a cup of tea is over, everyone come on."
