Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 352: Meridian Gate Clearing Accounts, You Can See Talents!
"This is great!" Li Yan said happily.

Long Wenguang, Ma Ke and others also showed joy.

Naturally, they knew about the radio station for a long time, but they also knew that it would take time for Aimee Zhu to train telegraph operators, so they didn't take the initiative to apply to Aimee Zhu.

Now that Aimee Zhu can send three radio teams here, it means that it will be much easier to communicate with Aimee Zhu, Lu Daqi, and Li Dingguo in the future.

Zhu Yu said again: "After Li Dingguo successfully asked for help from the Yunyang garrison, he was given the title of Governor of the Right and ordered to supervise military affairs in southern Shaanxi, northwestern Hubei and western Henan."

"Yes."

···
Dressed up as a decent female shopkeeper, Wei Yao came to the bulletin board and found that several people were already waiting.

One of them is Wu Wanqian, the manager of the bookstore next door.

"Isn't shopkeeper Wu saying he can't come?" Wei Yao asked with a smile.

Wu Wanqian shook his fan and sighed: "I really don't want to come, but yesterday I heard from a scholar that from now on, accountants will need to have some kind of 'accounting certificate', so that their accounts will be recognized by the court.

Moreover, this accounting certificate can only be obtained after passing the imperial examination, which is very troublesome.

Now you only need to check the accounts for the court once, and you can get it. Of course, the old man is coming. "

At this moment, a young bearded accountant gentleman came over, saluted the two of them, and then looked at Wei Yao, "Chen Liangchen, the accountant of Xiapin Pavilion, is the lady Wei the shopkeeper of Yingchunfang? Why are you here? "

"Why can't I come?" Wei Yao asked back.

Being able to be a shopkeeper, she is much stronger than ordinary women when facing outsiders.

Chen Liangchen said with a smile: "The accountants and shopkeepers who have been summoned this time are all men. I'm afraid it will be very inconvenient for the shopkeeper Wei to be involved."

Wei Yao said: "If I come to participate, it is the permission of the imperial court. As for the inconvenience, I don't need to bother Mr. Chen."

Immediately, Wei Yao stood aside and stopped talking to Chen Liangchen.

In the middle of the day, a group of imperial guards came here and brought the twenty or so accountants and shopkeepers who were waiting here outside the Meridian Gate of the imperial city.

Seeing that more and more people were being brought here, and the number gradually exceeded [-], Wu Wanqian couldn't help but cover his face with a fan and sighed in a low voice: "I never thought there would be so many accountants and shopkeepers here to answer the call. It seems that this' Accounting certificates are very popular, fortunately the old man is here."

Chen Liangchen smiled and said, "There are thousands of shops in Nanjing City, and some big shops have more than one account room. Now there are only more than 300 people here, which is not too many."

Wei Yao felt that some accountants and shopkeepers might not want to come, but they might have failed the test of the Imperial Guard yesterday.

Because it is true that some accountants only know how to keep running accounts, not even the four-post inventory, let alone the Longmen account and the four-foot account.

Not long after, the imperial guards began to organize Wei Yao and others.

A group of ten people, a team of 50 people, and finally compiled into six teams and two groups.

Wei Yao happened to form a group with Wu Wanqian, Chen Liangchen, and other accountants and shopkeepers he knew.

Each group is followed by ten Imperial Guards, as if monitoring and guiding.

At the same time, hundreds of tables and chairs were moved in front of the Meridian Gate, and pens, inks, papers and inkstones were distributed to them.

After that, they were divided into two parts, more than a hundred steps apart.

Two more female officers came, each carrying a black board.

Wei Yao looked boldly, and saw that the female officer was only sixteen or seventeen years old, but she looked indifferent when facing the crowd, without any sign of nervousness.

After everyone was seated, the female officer took out a horn and made a loud noise——

"I am Liu Zhu, a female officer next to Jian Guo, and I am ordered to teach you the method of double-entry bookkeeping today.

This accounting method is the same as Longmen Accounting, but it is more useful. I hope you can learn it with your heart.

No one is allowed to speak while I am lecturing.If you have any questions, you can raise your hand after I finish speaking, and I will answer them one by one.

Jian Guo only gives you half a day to learn the double-entry bookkeeping method, so I hope you will pay attention to the class. "

After hearing these words, many people wanted to whisper to the people around them.

But seeing the imperial guards standing beside him, they all shut up when it was convenient.

But everyone showed excitement.

For one thing, they saw one of the rumored magic weapons of the princess, the loudspeaker.

It is said that this magic weapon is probably easy to refine, and it was used by middle and senior generals of the Imperial Guard from time to time.

But although everyone present had heard of this thing, it was the first time to see it so close.

Second, it is undoubtedly a good thing to be able to learn a better accounting method than Longmen Accounting.

Just like Wei Yao, who is already eager to learn, but only understands the Four-Pillar Inventory, and only hears about the Longmen Account.

It is said that this Longmen account is a good bookkeeping method circulated among Shanxi merchants, and it seems that it is not rumored.

If the "double-entry bookkeeping method" that this female officer talked about is really easier to use than the Longmen account, then they have made a lot of money...

Linglong and Liu Zhu learned how to keep accounts when they were maids in the Shu Palace.

Later, she entered the Wounded Army Battalion, managed the Nursing Battalion, and worked as a female officer next to Auntie Zhu to assist in the management of some logistical affairs. It can be regarded as having a lot of practical experience in accounting.

Therefore, after Hao Guangming taught them for half a day through a surprise video, the two of them basically learned the double-entry bookkeeping method.

In fact, the accounting method itself is not difficult to learn, but it is rare to use it well.

The various accounts involved in the affairs of the Ming Dynasty will not be too complicated, and naturally there will not be too complicated requirements for the use of accounting methods...

It only took Linglong and Liu Zhu an hour to basically explain the double-entry bookkeeping method, and then began to assess everyone over and over again.

In the end, it took more than an hour to select 160 people.

Wei Yao and Chen Liangchen were among them, but Wu Wanqian was not selected because he was old and learned too slowly.

After that, these people were divided into four accounting teams, and they began to check the accounts of the household department and the military department at the same time in the Meridian Gate.

The Meridian Gate is not only a gate, but also a tall building with three floors.Its main body sits south and faces north, with one main, two auxiliary and three gates on the first floor, and palace-style houses on the second and third floors.

The two sides are composed of archery towers and corridors (or side halls), and the corridors also have two floors.

The elders of Ming Dynasty usually work in the building of Meridian Gate, so we can see that it is quite big.

Today, because the cabinet of the Hongguang Dynasty works in the side hall of the Wuying Hall, Ma Shiying arranges these private accountants and shopkeepers to work in the east and west corridors of the Meridian Gate.

The Ministry of Accounting and the Ministry of Military Affairs have accumulated a large number of accounts in the past one or two years, especially the Ministry of Accounting, even if they are all paper account books, they have been transported by several trucks.

So many accounts cannot be calculated in one day, let alone halfway through today.

However, these accountants and shopkeepers all knew that they would "work" for several days in a row, so they all brought toiletries and even clothes.

It was also at this time that Wei Yao really felt the inconvenience.

While eating the lunch that was said to be made by the Imperial Dining Room, Wei Yao worried about how to spend the evening.

'Why don't we just let us sleep here?Even if those men could, it would be inconvenient for me. '

Just when Wei Yao felt a little regretful, Liu Zhu walked over and said with a smile, "Is this the shopkeeper Wei from Yingchunfang? Please follow me."

Liu Zhu didn't say what to do, but Wei Yao didn't dare not follow.

After a while, when Wei Yao came back alone, her face was no longer worried.

It turned out that Liu Zhu had just taken her to a separate house nearby, where she could rest, wash, and be convenient.

And caringly, she replaced the soldiers of the Imperial Guard who followed her with female soldiers of the Suzaku Battalion.

With no worries, Wei Yao devoted herself to checking the accounts in the afternoon...
the next morning.

That is to say, on May [-]th, Auntie Zhu met two characters who were still looking forward to it.

"Grassmen see Jian Guo Qiantui!"

"Please get up quickly!" Auntie Zhu looked at the young woman and the old man in front of her, her joy was beyond words, "I hope you two are here!"

The woman is about 25 or [-] years old, with a beautiful face and elegant temperament. She is Liu Shuying, a patriotic poetess in the late Ming Dynasty recommended by Hao Guangming.

The old man's hair is slightly gray, and he looks like he is five or sixty years old, but he is another Jiangxi figure who is very famous in the late Ming Dynasty, Song Yingxing!
Although the two were approached by Jin Yiwei, after some persuasion, they were taken to Nanjing, and they knew that Aimee Zhu valued them a lot.

But when she heard Zhu Yuxi's words face to face, and saw Zhu Yuxi's expression of no pretense, she still couldn't help being flattered.

However, the two of them were still a little puzzled as to why Aimee Zhu valued them so much.

Auntie Zhu was not in a hurry to talk to the two of them, but looked at Li Siming, the Deputy Qianhu of the Jinyiwei, and said, "You have made a lot of contributions to finding people this time. You have been promoted to Jinyiwei Qianhu, and you will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver."

"Thank you!" Li Siming saluted excitedly.

When he left Sichuan, he only had a hundred households.

Later, after completing the task of leading Yinxi to meet Zhu Yuxi, he was promoted to Deputy Qianhu.

Now it has been upgraded to a thousand households.

Li Siming felt that finding talents and talents for Jian Guo was simply a job tailored for him.

Song Yingxing and Liu Shuying on the side had a new understanding of how much Zhu Yuxi valued them through the rewards Li Siming had received.

Afterwards, Aunt Zhu asked Li Siming to step down, and then started talking with Song Yingxing and Liu Shuying.
