Chapter 781 Wrong calculation?
"Please"
Zhu Pingan, who was in the center of everyone's ridiculing and criticizing eyes, remained calm and unfazed. He was not entangled in this issue at all. He raised his head and looked at the ghostly hand, raising his eyebrows At the corner of his lips, he smiled calmly, stretched out his right hand and pointed at the abacus in Gui Shou Zhang's hand, and said a word of "please" to indicate Gui Shou Zhang to continue counting data.
Pretend, keep pretending, let’s see how you end up!
Ghost Zhang snorted coldly, placed the abacus heavily on the table, and fiddled with the beads with both hands like a gust of wind.
Two dragons playing with pearls;
Bowing their bows left and right;
A visual feast strikes again.
While enjoying the performance of Gui Shou Zhang, Zhu Ping'an gently shook his head, no I deny that the abacus arithmetic has reached the point of perfection, but mathematics that is hundreds of years ahead cannot be caught up simply by hand speed.
I noticed that Zhu Ping'an looked at him and shook his head, and his expression changed suddenly. You are a person who doesn't know how to calculate and gave up. Are you addicted to pretending? !
Haha
This Zhu Ping'an is really real. When the officials in the room saw this, they shook their heads and laughed.
In their view, Zhu Ping'an is just playing tricks on his class and showing off his sword in front of Guan Gong. He is a master figure in the world of abacus. What qualifications do you have for a person who can't even do abacus? Shake your head.
Forget it, forget it, he is so good at showing off, let’s see how he ends up in the end. Everyone had this idea and looked at Zhu Pingan with ridicule, waiting for the situation to develop.
"My lord, please have some tea."
The Taicang officer came to Zhu Pingan with tea.
"Thank you, um, good tea."
Zhu Ping'an stretched out his left hand to take the hot tea brought by the guard, put it to his lips and sniffed it gently, curling the corners of his lips slightly He praised it and then put the tea cup on the table.
Although he was a little thirsty, for the sake of caution, Zhu Pingan would not drink any food or tea outside before the inspection was over.
“Haha, it is really good tea. Why don’t you have a drink, Mr. Zhu?”
An official scraped the tea cover twice, took a big sip of tea, praised it loudly, turned to look at Zhu Pingan and asked.
"Sir, please use it slowly, you are safe and not thirsty."
Zhu Ping'an licked the corners of his dry lips, cupped his hands towards him, and smiled slightly.
I'm thirsty for you.
Idiot.
The official glanced at Zhu Pingan's dry lips, pulled down the corners of his mouth mockingly, and deliberately took another sip of tea in front of Zhu Pingan.
Jia Langzhong glanced at Zhu Pingan and narrowed his eyes slightly.
After Zhu Pingan said that it was finished, another two quarters of an hour, that is, half an hour passed, and he opened his bow with both hands. The ghost hand Zhang also stopped, deliberately moved his body, turned his back to Zhu Pingan, blocked Zhu Pingan's sight with his body, picked up the brush and wrote down the statistical results on the blank rice paper.
After a while, the other four accountants also stopped playing with the beads, looked at each other with Gui Shou Zhang, nodded without any trace, turned their backs to Zhu Pingan, and also used their bodies to Blocking Zhu Pingan's view, he printed the statistical results on rice paper.
“Replying to all your lords, we have already compiled the statistics.”
Guishou Zhang bowed his hands and reported back to Zhang Guanku and other officials.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
Zhang Guanku nodded, then turned to look at Zhu Ping'an, "Since Zihou has already finished it, let's check it out."< br>
Zhu Pingan nodded, stretched out his hand and unfolded the rice paper in front of him, revealing the numbers recorded on it.
"Ghost Shou Zhang" and other five accountants also came forward with the rice paper recording the numbers, placed them on the table where Zhu Pingan was interviewing and unfolded them, revealing the numbers on them.
Zhu Pingan wrote two lines on the rice paper he unfolded.
The top line reads: "Check the bank today and find the actual amount of silver: 1,237,250 taels."
After this line of words, there is a number enclosed in brackets: (nine hundred and three thousand eight hundred taels).
The following line reads: "Actual deposit: 316,500 taels", followed by a number in parentheses: (125,500 taels) .
The number enclosed in brackets by Zhu Pingan is the amount of silver in poor quality in the bank, which means that there are currently 1,237,250 taels of silver in the bank, of which There were nine hundred and thirty-eight hundred pieces of silver of poor quality, not pure silver.
The rice paper displayed by the ghost hand Zhang said: "Actual silver deposit: 2,127,200 taels; actual gold deposit: 720,000 taels."
The other four The statistics of the accounting room are consistent with the data displayed by Gui Zhang. They are all actual silver deposits: 2,127,200 taels; actual gold deposits: 720,000 taels.
"Well, the data recorded by several accountants are exactly the same. The actual silver deposits: 2,127,200 taels; the actual gold deposits: 720,000 taels. Hahaha, Mr. Zhu recorded The data is different from that of several accountants, hahaha."
After checking the rice paper displayed by Zhu Ping'an, Gui Shou Zhang and other five accountants, the onlookers couldn't help but read it with a smile.
“Hahaha, it’s really only Mr. Zhu’s statistics that are different, hahaha”
"Haha, Mr. Zhu couldn't be dazzled by tiredness and missed half of the figures, hahaha."
"Haha, Mr. Zhu counted so quickly, isn't the number normal? In fact, Mr. Zhu Calculate such a, um, a comparison It’s very rare to get a close figure.”
“Haha, Mr. Wang, your standards are too low. This is a difference of several hundred thousand taels, but it’s still close, haha.”
< br>Other officials who were watching also laughed.
"Haha, look, look at the data he collected. He also used a strange arc ghost symbol to wrap up a number. Haha, it's funny. He couldn't be wrong by writing an extra number. The possibility is doubled, hahaha, I can’t help it, hahaha”
There were no brackets in ancient times. The officials who were watching did not recognize the bracket symbol. When they saw the bracket symbol on Zhu Pingan's rice paper, they thought it was a ghost drawing and laughed at him.
The moment six pieces of rice paper were unfolded at the same time, a burst of laughter burst into the room, and it didn't stop for a long time.
The statistical data of six people are the same for five people, and only one person is different. Needless to say, the different person must have made a mistake in the statistics. It cannot be that all four people have made a mistake. , you are the only one who counted correctly, hahaha.
Indeed, if four people make a mistake in counting, they can still get the same number wrong. This probability is too small.
So, the officials who were watching took it for granted that Zhu Ping'an's statistics were wrong. His mistake was so normal that he didn't even know how to do abacus. He pretended to draw a few ghost symbols in half a cup of tea. If he was good, he wouldn't have done it. That’s right.
However, it was different from the officials watching.
Zhang Guanku, Jia Lang and other senior Taicang officials seemed to have seen a ghost after seeing the data displayed by Zhu Pingan. Their faces turned gray in an instant and they stared at Zhu Pingan in a daze. The unfolded rice paper looks like pieces of wood.
Although it was a hot summer day, their whole hearts felt as if someone had tied a stone and sunk into the ice cave, and they felt a chill all over their bodies. (End of this chapter)
