Magistrate Tang rummaged through the contents of his baggage. He did not look at the account books and letters, but looked at the government deeds.

Man Bao and the other three stared at him with bright eyes, waiting for him to answer his questions.

County Magistrate Tang glanced at Magistrate Yang, who nodded slightly. Magistrate Tang then clicked the paper in his hand and said, "This is a mountain deed. Do you know what a mountain deed is?"

Man Bao said: "As the name suggests, it is the land deed of the mountain."

Magistrate Tang paused for a moment and then nodded and said: "Yes, but this mountain deed is the part left in the Yamen." He pointed to a small symbol in the lower right corner and said: "Do you know what this is?"

The three of them shook their heads together.

"This means there are iron ores in the mountains."

Magistrate Yang also nodded, "I probably discovered it later. Magistrate Bai made a mark here, probably because he wanted to redeem the mountain and let the court mine it."

"According to my "Laws of the Jin Dynasty", except for the imperial court, no one is allowed to mine privately. If there is a mine in a private property, it should also be reported to the imperial court, and the Yamen will issue a document for Xu Cai. It should be opened by both parties. I just flipped through it.

, I didn’t see any stubs of such documents.”

County Magistrate Tang then went to look through other things, and the more he read, the more he became depressed. He handed the book to Magistrate Yang to read, and then opened the letters.

Man Bao and Bai Shan immediately came together to watch.

Magistrate Tang County glanced at them but did not stop them.

There are nineteen letters in total, and the people who come and go are of different identities, including ministers of the court, members of the clan, and even some big businessmen.

Magistrate Tang read them all carefully, and when he saw the three people on the side looking at him with keen attention, he handed over the letter he had read in his hand, and the three people immediately took it and read it.

Magistrate Tang shook his head and sorted out the booklets with Magistrate Yang.

There were so many things that they couldn't finish them all in a short while. They could only look through them roughly, and then carefully look at the front ones, and they sorted out this book as the account book of Yizhou King Goulian, and this one as the account book of Yizhou King Tanmo Hegong.

, and this one is the account book of the mined iron ore, and that one is the book he used to buy grain...

They just sorted these out. The three children over there also read the nineteen letters carefully. They also took out a piece of white paper and listed a lot of things, extracting the person who corresponded and the main content of the communication.

, allowing people to understand it at a glance.

Baijiro pasted these papers directly on the back of the letters so that they would know which letter was mainly about what.

County Magistrate Tang felt something in his heart when he saw it. He immediately put the account books placed on the table in front of them and said with a smile: "Come on, come on, I will teach you how to read the account books. Do you know what these are?"

The three of them had just read the letter, and they were still shocked by the content in the letter, shaking their heads in confusion.

Magistrate Tang smiled like the old lady in the village who coaxed them to help bundle firewood, and said in a soft voice: "It doesn't matter, I will teach you."

Magistrate Yang glanced at him, shook his head and looked out the window. Only then did he realize that the sky had darkened. He twisted his neck, stood up and said, "Okay, let's go out for a walk to wake up your eyes. You are the one."

There is no rush to employ people at this moment."

Magistrate Tang felt that what he said made sense and wanted to go out as soon as he collected the things. However, Man Bao and Bai Shan were very anxious, "otherwise, let's talk first. We are not tired at all."

Magistrate Yang couldn't help but sigh, "There are still people who are rushing to find work."

He taught the two of them: "Don't be hasty in doing things. We have been here for more than ten years, so why rush at this moment? The more haste you are, the easier it is to make mistakes. Let's go, let's go out for a walk first."

Wan Tian stayed behind to guard the study, and they met Cui as soon as they left the courtyard.

Mrs. Cui smiled and said, "I was about to invite you. It's time for dinner."

They actually stayed in the study for the whole afternoon. Magistrate Yang smiled and nodded and took them to dinner.

The dinner was sumptuous, and Mrs. Cui also prepared some wine, obviously to welcome Magistrate Tang.

Zhou Lang was squatting outside the study with Wanda Akari all day today. He was very bored. He looked at Magistrate Tang, then at his sister, and asked: "Man Bao, when do you decide to go home?

"

Man Bao thought for a while, I'm afraid it would take a long time to sort out so many things, and looked at Bai Shan with some uncertainty: "Five days?"

Zhou Lang said: "Then I will go home tomorrow. I have to go back and tell my parents so as not to worry them. The family is busy with farming and my sister-in-law has closed the shop and went home to help. Otherwise, I can just tell my sister-in-law directly. By the way, do you want me to tell you?

At home?"

He turned to look at Bai Shan and Bai Erlang.

Bai Erlang nodded timidly, "It would be best for Brother Zhou to tell my father."

Even Bai Shan nodded, "Thank you, Brother Zhou."

Zhou Lang agreed indifferently and didn't feel there was anything embarrassing about it at all. Anyway, he just obeyed orders and did things. In the end, when he returned home, they were the ones who were punished.

Magistrate Tang also told Magistrate Yang, "I will leave after noon the day after tomorrow."

Magistrate Yang nodded, then looked at Mrs. Cui, "Let the kitchen prepare some easy-to-eat midnight snacks tonight and deliver them to us later."

Mrs. Cui didn't understand what they and the three boys and girls could do overnight, but she still nodded.

Everyone had dinner and went back to the study without any delay.

Magistrate Tang and Magistrate Yang felt that time was limited, so they simply took an account book each and grabbed one to teach them.

Magistrate Tang County arrested Bai Shan and said: "This is an account book about iron ore mining. It contains the date, mining volume, inventory volume, and the time of shipment. However, this should have been recorded privately. There is some confusion. In the middle

There is still missing time. I need you to calculate the average daily production, then calculate the recorded monthly total, and add the total amount mined for the whole month..."

Bai Shan understood, "Is this counting how many weapons they have refined?"

Magistrate Tang paused and patted his head, "There are so many questions, let's sort out the booklet first."

County Magistrate Yang caught Man Bao, took three booklets for buying food and said to her: "Although these three booklets are for buying food, I remember them very confusingly. You see there are notes in the middle. This pen is for

For Jiashan'ao, this one is for Anshan. I need you to list it again. Which one is for Jiashan'ao and which one is for Anshan. How long was the interval between them? It's best to calculate each of them.

How much food does the land consume every day?"

Manbao immediately understood, "This can calculate how many people there are in Shangjia Mountain Col and how many people there are in Anshan, right?"

Magistrate Yang paused and nodded, "Yes, these books you have are very complicated. You have to distinguish them clearly to avoid miscalculations. Miners and soldiers are different."

Man Bao nodded solemnly.

Only then did Magistrate Yang take a thick book to Bai Erlang and said: "This is the book of Yizhou King Tan Mohe's silver. This should be the original book. It is not very messy, but it must be listed in whose hands it passed through."

, please help me list them."

Bai Erlang was trembling, "I, I don't understand."
Chapter completed!
