Wang Anshi was feeling a little unhappy when he walked into the palace because the newly appointed Sansi envoy Song Qi had a deep and earnest conversation with him before coming.

Song Qi's words were filled with fog, but a smart person like Wang Anshi still understood it. That was to take a closer look when he settled the score for the emperor.

This is really a difficult situation for him, Wang Anshi. Why are you taking it easy? Are you pretending to be stupid and unable to see it? Or do you avoid the important things? Or what?

What made Wang Anshi the most embarrassing is that Wang Anshi is not such a person?

This official in the Song Dynasty can be stupid, stupid, or pedantic, but many people are very moral and do not do such things as robbers and dogs.

Wang Anshi would not do these things, even Sima Guang would not do such things. And the more conservative people like Sima Guang are, the less likely they are to do such things. The so-called gentleman, to a certain extent, Sima Guang is conservative and pedantic, but he will not do things that he does not agree with in his own values.

Not to mention Wang Anshi and Sima Guang, but to say that Song Qi himself would not take the initiative to do things such as corruption and bribery.

This made Wang Anshi a little frown. However, after so many years in the officialdom, it is not the first time that Wang Anshi has faced such a thing, and he can always find some more slick solutions. Wang Anshi is not Bao Zheng.

Just settle the accounts, it’s a lot of 100,000 yuan. It’s really a lot. It’s recorded in accounts, and there are several large books.

With the abacus in hand, there is also a piece of draft paper for formulas, which can be calculated with a crackling sound.

Emperor Zhao Zhen came over to see him from time to time. He was not stupid, and he had to stare at him, and was afraid that Wang Anshi would be a person with a weak stance, and would end up fooling him in a mess.

As he looked, Zhao Zhen asked, "Wang Qing, what is your crooked symbol?"

Student Wang Anshi quickly stood up and bowed and said, "Report to Your Majesty, this is a calculation method invented by Gan Daojian. Using these symbols instead of numbers, addition, subtraction, multiplication and division is extremely convenient. If you calculate it, you will get twice the result with half the effort."

"Oh? I know that Gan Daojian is good at the method of wise calculation, but I don't know that he can invent a method of wise calculation. Let me tell you." Zhao Zhen became interested.

Wang Anshi immediately took out a piece of white paper and began to demonstrate: "Your Majesty, please see, this is a simple symbol of numbers of one, two, three, four..., this is addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. If it is a large number operation, there are methods for addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, which are called formula calculations. The best one is the way of multiplication and division. You can calculate huge numbers entirely based on divine calculations. I demonstrate to Your Majesty..."

Wang Anshi calculated it with a calculation of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, or even millions, so it was so easy to calculate it.

Emperor Zhao Zhen was particularly surprised to see it and said repeatedly: "The solidity of the candle is a genius of the clear calculation!"

Wang Anshi replied with a smile: "I have learned these methods from the perspective of being willing to be brave."

Zhao Zhen looked at Wang Anshi and asked again: "You have a very good relationship with Gan Daojian?"

Wang Anshi nodded: "The relationship is very close. Whenever you have free business, I will sit in Gan Daojian. If you don't explain this clear way, Gan Daojian can always speak amazing things and have great insights into many things. If you talk to them, you will always benefit a lot."

"I'm so happy, I can't wait to let him serve the court." The chairman discovered a very capable employee, probably in this mood.

Wang Anshi also smiled and said, "Your Majesty is at ease. You will be able to take the exam after the New Year. With a strong talent, you will definitely be able to go to high school."

"Okay, please continue to count, I'll go out for a walk and have some breathing." For some reason, Zhao Zhen seemed to trust Wang Anshi, thinking that Wang Anshi would not cheat him, so there was no need to stare here again.

How smart Wang Anshi was? After the settlement, the emperor never came again. What does this mean? Naturally, it means that the emperor was relieved of him. At the beginning, the emperor almost walked around in front of him, which meant that the emperor was worried. At this moment, he suddenly felt relieved again. Why is this?

Wang Anshi naturally knew why, and muttered to himself with a smile: "I have to thank Daojian..."

This incident was revealed by Gan Qi. Now that Wang Anshi and Gan Qi have such a good relationship, the emperor naturally trusts Wang Anshi. In the final analysis, it is the emperor who trusts Gan Qi who revealed this incident.

Perhaps, the better impression that Wang Anshi gave Zhao Zhen would make his rise faster.

After all afternoon, it was getting dark, and the accounts of the 100,000 ounces of money have not been calculated clearly.

It’s time for Wang Anshi to leave the palace, and he will continue to do it tomorrow.

Wang Anshi, who left the palace, did not return home, but went to the last gate as soon as possible.

Because Wang Anshi was really in a dilemma, his superior's explanation and the emperor's trust conflicted at this moment. He had to find someone to think of a solution and find a smooth and best of both worlds. Wang Anshi thought of Gan Qi the first person to find a solution.

The city gate caught up and Wang Anshi left the city.

When he arrived at Ganqi's house, he even caught up with dinner. After a few glasses of wine, Wang Anshi told the matter and waited for Ganqi's suggestion.

Gan Qi also frowned and thought, this matter was really hard to deal with. On one hand, he was the immediate boss and could not offend him, and on the other hand, he was the emperor and could not offend him.

Gan Qi asked, "Brother Jiefu, when you settle the accounts today, do you think there is any problem in the accounts?"

Wang Anshi shook his head: "No big problem was calculated. If there was really a big problem, it was not something that could be calculated by this basic account. The capital is still relatively close. Who can know about Kuizhou? You can't send people to investigate for such a small matter, right?"

Gan Qi said again: "Since that's the case, then the account will be settled here, so there is no need to be settled. Let's ask Brother Jiefu, if it is 100,000 pounds of grain, how many people will be needed to transport it from the capital to Kuizhou? How many days will it take? How much fire will be consumed?"

Gan Qi changed his mind and it was not difficult to find problems. If you can’t find something that others have prepared, you have to find something that others have not prepared.

Wang Anshi has served in many places and is naturally clear about this problem. After thinking about it, he knocked on the table with his hand and suddenly realized: "The nuts are really smart. How much food is going out in the capital and how much food is received in Kuizhou? Two or more phases are reduced, that is the fire consumption on the way. It is logical that 100,000 guan can buy 128,000 shi of grain. From Bianliang to Kuizhou, if you walk on the north road, you can get there for more than a month, with people, cars, 4,500 people, and more than 200 cars. If you calculate the fire consumption carefully, it will be more than 12,000 shi."

"How?" Gan Qi asked. The so-called fire consumption is the consumption of people eating horses and chewing them during the way to transport food, as well as some damage and leakage.

Wang Anshi raised his eyebrows and said, "The difference is at least seven or eight thousand stones."

Gan Qi smiled slightly.

Wang Anshi also smiled and said, "It's OK."

Gan Qi also reminded him: "Brother Jiefu should just give him a hint, no need to explain it."

Wang Anshi understood this principle and nodded repeatedly: "This is not my fault in seizing the score, hehe..."

Gan Qi also laughed out loud, "Hehe" sound. This time, Grandpa Han couldn't say that the ship was sunk again, right? The emperor's 100,000 guan was audited for a difference of 7,000 or 8,000 guan, and spent a total of more than one million guan. How much is the difference? 100,000 guan is at least. In other words, tens of thousands of guans were put into his private pocket, almost one tenth. Although it was not as shocking as it was, it was enough.

Who took the money? How did Han Qi do it? How did Han Qi supervise it?
