Fortunate Young Gentleman

Chapter 286 A Difficult Mission

What Su Mei said is right. If she was like Xiao Tao, carrying any messy things with her, he would have slept in a separate bed with her.

Su Mei glanced at him and asked: "The two maids will stay with me for a while for training. After a while, I will let them stay with my mother. Do you have any objections?"

"No." Tangning shook her head simply. Living alone in the backyard would inevitably lead to boredom after a long time. It would be nice to have two people to talk with.

However, he is still not used to the word "mother" coming from Su Mei's mouth.

Su Mei took off her hairpin, spread her hair loosely, and asked, "Is there anything else you want to say?"

Tangning was stunned, shook her head and said, "No more."

Su Mei gave him a roll of her eyes: "What are you doing standing around if you don't have any more? Go to bed!"

April, July, October and the twelfth lunar month of each year are the busiest times for the household department.

Whether it is military salaries, official rewards, or funds allocated for natural disasters, all are recorded in the accounts of the Ministry of Accounts. If they are all accumulated until the end of the year and liquidated, it will be time-consuming and laborious. Therefore, the accounts of the Ministry of Accounts are calculated once a quarter and at the end of the year. only need to summarize

It was early October, and the Duzhi Yamen responsible for the accounting settlement had not yet received the accounts for the previous quarter, so it seemed a little idle.

"Did you see it yesterday? It was amazing!"

"Yes, I have never seen anyone faster than Mr. Tang."

"As expected of a three-yuan grade, I didn't even use an abacus to calculate the accounts..."

"Not only is there no need for abacus, Chief Zheng is obviously deliberately making things difficult, but he can give the answer immediately without even thinking about it. It is said that Chief Zheng had someone check it yesterday, and there is nothing wrong with the account book..."

The clerks in the Duzhi Yamen who had nothing to do gathered together in twos and threes in their respective rooms, talking in low voices.

The scene in Duzhi Yamen yesterday was witnessed by many people.

The calculation speed of Director Tang and the accuracy of the results shocked countless people's jaws.

All the officials in the yamen unanimously believed that Chief Tang was the fastest man in the history of the Ministry of Household Affairs. He was about to reach a new level and a new height. He was incredibly fast.

When Tang Ning came to the Ministry of Household Affairs for the second time, she clearly found that the atmosphere of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Hanlin Academy were indeed different.

When he was in the Hanlin Academy, he would go to the Yamen at midnight, and there would be others who would be even later than him.

Today he came to the Ministry of Household Affairs a quarter of an hour early and found that almost everyone had arrived.

"Good morning, Mr. Tang!"

"Meet Mr. Tang"

When he walked into Duzhi Yamen, the officials in the Yamen saluted him one after another.

In this Duzhi Yamen, besides Doctor Chen, he was the eldest. Before Doctor Chen arrived, Tang Ning sat back in her seat, took the abacus on the table, and fiddled with it casually.

Yesterday, Tang Yaojing taught him step by step the fingering techniques for dialing the abacus. After he got home, he found a few books and read them, and he had already learned a lot.

This thing is actually not difficult as long as you master the formula. The only difference is your proficiency.

Doctor Chen finally entered the check-in room before the clock was pressed. He bowed his hand to Tang Ning and said, "Good morning, Mr. Tang."

Tang Ning bowed her hands and returned the greeting: "Good morning, Mr. Chen."

After greeting each other, Tang Ning continued to practice abacus. Hube's wooden abacus was not as good as Tang Yaojing's white jade abacus, and it was not as good as Tang Yaojing's.

Tang Ning found a random account book and practiced for a while, and found that he could no longer make mistakes in calculations, but could not improve his speed, so Tang Ning put it down. With Tang Yaoji here, he didn't have to do it himself, so he put it down. You need to practice to be as skilled as her

Not long after I put down my abacus, a figure walked in from outside the door.

Director Zheng walked to Tang Ning, hugged his fists, and said apologetically: "Director Tang, I'm really sorry. I didn't know it was you yesterday. I offended you so much. I hope Mr. Tang will forgive you..."

Tang Ning waved her hand and said indifferently, "It doesn't matter. Chief Zheng is doing business, so there is nothing to offend."

Chief Zheng clasped his fists and said: "Mr. Tang is open-minded, I feel ashamed..."

After he apologized to Tang Ning, he walked to Dr. Chen and said, "Mr. Chen, there is something that requires you to go out in person."

Dr. Chen looked at him in surprise and asked, "Oh, what's the matter?"

Director Zheng said: "This year, the Ministry of Revenue has received several impeachment memorials. Several local officials in Shangzhou have impeached the governor of Shangzhou for embezzling taxes. They have just made an announcement and ordered the Ministry of Revenue to coordinate with the supervisory censor to go to Shangzhou to verify and investigate Shangzhou. The accounts of recent years are to be set off today. This is an errand for your branch. Han Shilang ordered me to come over and inform you that you must summon ten planners today to accompany the supervisory censor to Shangzhou tomorrow."

"Going to Shangzhou?" Chen Langzhong was stunned and asked: "Although Shangzhou is not far from the capital, it will take at least half a month to check the accounts. If I take away ten planners, "The accounts of the previous quarter of the Household Department will definitely not be completed before the ninth day of the Lunar New Year. How will we explain it to the court then?"

Chief Zheng shook his head and wondered: "My Lord, the Vice Minister also understands the difficulties you have, but the matters in Shangzhou are equally urgent. We cannot let the censor go alone. In this way, we will also be unable to explain to the court."

Doctor Chen's face showed a tangled look, "This..."

Tang Ning was flipping through the accounts on the table in boredom. Doctor Chen hurried over and said, "Mr. Tang, I have something that I'm afraid will trouble you."

Tangning raised her head, looked at him, and said, "
