As the key rotates in the copper lock, the copper lock hanging above the warehouse door also falls off, and the closed warehouse door slowly opens.
"Mr. Liu, all the accounts of the Neijing Money Bank are in this warehouse."
"According to Your Majesty's will, if there is an open fire, it is necessary to accompany more than three soldiers from the Imperial Front Battalion and three personnel from the warehouse. If you want to review it, the open fire lasts too long and can only be reviewed outside the warehouse. Registration must be registered when entering and leaving the warehouse. Those who intentionally damage the account book is equivalent to a crime of corruption."
The generals of the Imperial Front Camp who were in charge of guarding the warehouse bowed to Liu Qiyuanyi.
Looking at the darkness in the warehouse and looking at the tightly guarded scene outside the warehouse, a hint of admiration couldn't help but appear in Liu Qiyuan's eyes.
What he was most worried about before was that someone was desperate to jump over the wall, burning the account book, and having no evidence to die.
Even so, it is also of great benefit to them, but it is obviously not a good thing for him, the Minister of Revenue, who wants to include this big piece of fat into the Ministry of Revenue.
Seeing this scene, he felt relieved. He was supervised by the warehouse alone, and was under the supervision of the soldiers of the Imperial Front Camp. His worries were redundant.
"Sir, this is an external warehouse. There is also an internal warehouse in Your Majesty's bedroom, which also stores the accounts of money shops and merchants over the years. If you need it, you can ask Your Majesty for the imperial edict."
After saying that, the general of the Imperial Front Camp turned around and left without waiting for Liu Qiyuan to answer.
What followed was a team of soldiers from the Imperial Front Camp, wearing armor and holding sharp edges, standing aside.
Several accompanying officials lit the torches in shock, and then behind them, they immediately moved closer to several soldiers from the Imperial Front Camp, holding the hilt of the knife in their hands, staring at them with a covetous look, as if they had any abnormal movements, and they immediately took them down.
In this scene, Liu Qiyuan had no strange colors. Such a heavy and strict defense was the scene that should have. Otherwise, the existence of this warehouse would have no meaning.
"Remember General Li's words, when you hold the account book, keep your hands and feet firm and do not damage the account book."
As a commander, the officials also entered the warehouse covering all accounts of the money shop since its establishment and now.
When the fire shone, the entire warehouse was also reflected in everyone's vision. Rows of bookshelves were densely packed, but they were placed neatly in this warehouse. On each bookshelf, the eunuchs who were in charge of the money shop, the year, and even the booklets were arranged.
"First start with this year."
Liu Qiyuan looked around and said something, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The tax books of the Ministry of Revenue over the years are also concentrated in a warehouse to take care of, but in terms of management...
Even though he repeatedly emphasized that even though he had dealt with several officials in a ruthless manner, although it had improved, it was still quite far away to be so well organized.
At this time, with Liu Qiyuan's order, the brigade officials of the Ministry of Revenue quickly stepped forward, registered and transported according to the rules and regulations of the warehouse, and then went to the temporary tent to be set up outside for review.
Liu Qiyuan walked around and picked up an account book at will, with a few big words on the cover clearly emerging.
Daheng Money House, Xuanfu Qinghe Branch.
May of the year Zhaowu.
When the cover opened and once again caught Liu Qiyuan's eye, it was completely different from the format of the Ministry of Revenue tax statistics book.
This difference made Liu Qiyuan frown. After studying it carefully for a moment, Liu Qiyuan's pupils shrank suddenly. Then, he picked up another book and read it. After several consecutive books, Liu Qiyuan couldn't help but breathe a long sigh, and his eyes were a little flickering.
Too detailed!
He thought that just like the imperial court taxes, in the end, it was just a statistical figure, and at most it was just a summary of the accounts of various places.
But these accounts completely include all!
It has been detailed that a very subtle expenditure income is recorded on a certain day, on a certain period of time!
It is completely a complete collection of branches and banking of all the commercial banks in the world, every day, every expenditure and every income, and then transport it to this warehouse!
It is completely conceivable that such a detailed account book would be such a terrifying project volume if he wanted to check it!
Even if he moved the entire Ministry of Revenue, it would probably not be possible to check it out in a year or two!
"How long will it take to review?"
In the end, Liu Qiyuan put down his account book and asked with luck.
"Report to my master, if we check it out one by one, we may not be able to finish it in a few years."
Some officials gritted their teeth and spoke.
"Okay, I know, you guys go and prepare first."
Liu Qiyuan waved his hand, looking gloomy and gloomy.
He knew that with the emperor's character, since he could collect all the accounts and books together, it was naturally not for the sake of viewing. He must have the ability to calculate clearly, so he would take such measures.
He was the Minister of Revenue and naturally knew the way of calculating numbers.
If we use the arithmetic level of the Ministry of Revenue officials to achieve this goal, it would be almost impossible unless thousands of people were used to pile it up.
"Martial Arts Academy..."
In the end, this noun came to Liu Qiyuan's mind.
Since ancient times, the way of calculating has been making progress slowly.
As far as he knows, the emperor attaches great importance to the paths of arithmetic. In the martial arts academy, arithmetic is a compulsory subject for everyone.
As far as he knows, the Neijing Money House Trading Bank will send a considerable number of accounting offices to the Martial Arts Academy for several months every year...
The money shop in the Neijing was able to complete the statistical summary of these accounts in a limited time at the end of each year. Obviously, their arithmetic level and the arithmetic level of the Martial Arts Academy were beyond the arithmetic method he knew.
Merchants, circulation is also...
Thoughts circulated, Liu Qiyuan called a minor official and ordered him.
"Go and send people to the people, just find a business in the capital, and call a few good-quality accountants here."
In less than an hour, several middle-aged men in common clothes came to Liu Qiyuan under the leadership of the officials.
"Okay, take this account book and let them calculate it."
Liu Qiyuan was a little impatient. With a command, several accountants sent out a book of accounts, and the abacus was placed on it, and they all made a slap. They all honestly calculated.
Liu Qiyuan and some curious Ministry of Revenue officials also stood behind him and watched.
The more he looked, the tighter Liu Qiyuan frowned. Although he was a minister of the Ministry of Revenue, although he was not very proficient in arithmetic, he naturally understood what he should know.
But now, he can't understand it.
But he still knows whether the answer is correct or not.
This method of arithmetic that he couldn't understand was both fast and accurate!
"Who did you learn about your arithmetics? Why is it different from the current arithmetics?"
Finally, Liu Qiyuan held the calculated answer and asked several accountants.
"Sir, we were all trained by the shopkeeper since childhood. However, a few years ago, our shopkeeper dug up an accountant from an outside business bank and said that the calculation was fast and accurate, so we also learned it..."
"As far as we know, shops and business banks in various places now, our accounts are calculated in this way. It is said that the method of calculation was spread from His Majesty's money shop business at the beginning..."
Speaking of this, one of the accountants seemed to think of something and suddenly said, "By the way, sir, this is the basic calculation issued by the Publicity Department in the first two months. We rely on this calculation to make a living. As soon as we heard that, we bought them all..."
"I heard that someone passed the three rounds of assessments after reading this basic arithmetic conference last month. He was directly recruited into the Martial Arts Academy and was rewarded with a thousand taels of silver!"
"After the second round, most of them were hired by various commercial banks and money shops..."
"Arithmetic Conference?"
Liu Qiyuan frowned. Why haven't he heard of this before?
"The arithmetic conference started last year. The address is at the foot of Polu Mountain. Anyone can sign up for it. The test questions are some arithmetic questions, which are divided into three rounds."
"Those who pass the first round will be rewarded with one hundred taels of silver, those who pass the second round will be rewarded with five hundred taels of silver, those who pass the third round will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver, and they will be hired into the Martial Arts Academy. It is said that the monthly salary is as high as fifty taels, and there are various subsidies during festivals..."
"The young man also went to participate last year, but he didn't even pass the first level..."
Listening to the accountant’s statement, Liu Qiyuan frowned. After picking up the basic calculation book and reading it for a while, his brows also frowned even deeper.
Although this book of basic arithmetics is the name of the basics, it can be said to be a self-contained system. In the most simple language, the way of arithmetics progresses from low to high, and in the end, it is like an arithmetic formula that he can't quite understand.
Just a brief look, he knew that even those who are not good at writing, concentrate on studying for months and arithmetic levels, may rise sharply.
For those who already have a calculation foundation, reading this book through is probably like a pot of initiation and a tiger with wings!
It seems that everything is a benefit, but Liu Qiyuan frowned even deeper. Everything comes from the Martial Arts Academy, and the arithmetic competition, such a generous reward, and the basic arithmetics issued by Xuansi in this article...
All of this is obviously to induced by profit, to promote arithmetic and arouse the people's desire to learn about arithmetic.
Your Majesty has never done useless work now.
The emperor prefers to calculate these paths so much, and he has worked hard to promote them...
Why exactly?
Is it just to settle accounts, and to calculate faster and more accurately?
If it is just for this, there is no need to promote it like this. The existence of a small group of people is enough.
Moreover, these things seemed to appear when the court was busy and had no intention of taking care of other things.
"Go to the market to buy some of these basic calculations, and each person will give you one!"
In the end, Liu Qiyuan suppressed this doubt for the time being and gave a casual command.
After saying that, he looked at the accountants and said without any doubt: "You guys stay here for the time being!"
