Chapter 12: Wisdom fights evil slaves


   The sun sets to the west, and after half an hour, the closing gongs and drums of the West Market will be sounded. At that time, shops will have to close and customers must go home. Chang'an City has a very strict curfew system. The vendors outside screamed harder, trying to sell more goods in the last half hour.
   In Li Ji's clothing store, it was quiet.
   Xu Hongzhi stood beside Li Zexuan, watching Li Zexuan write and paint. I saw him drew some horizontal and vertical lines on the paper. These horizontal and vertical lines formed a grid. The daily expenditure and income were listed in the grid for classification, and finally the comprehensive calculation was carried out. Xu Hongzhi praised it in his heart. , This method of accounting is unprecedented, but what is the word like tadpole in this?
   Xu Hongzhi, who wanted to come over to help the younger generation, looked at the Arabic numerals in front of him with a dazed expression. He wanted to ask this boy very much now, but seeing Li Zexuan writing and drawing very seriously, he resisted the idea of ​​asking questions.
   did not arrive for a quarter of an hour, I saw Li Zexuan breathe out a long breath, stood up and said to Li Jingmo:
   "Okay, Dad, I found out what is wrong with this account."
   Xu Hongzhi looked shocked, he hadn't figured it out for more than an hour, did this young man find the problem before a quarter of an hour?
   Xu Hongzhi very much doubted whether this boy was fooling himself. Although he had never seen his bookkeeping method before and looked very clever, he couldn't count it as fast as a comprehensive calculation of so many numbers.
  He doesn't know how these pediatric addition, subtraction, multiplication and division operations are a piece of cake for Li Zexuan, an engineering dog who is often bombarded by square root power series calculus and even more complex matrix convolution operations.
   Wang Zhengkun panicked when he heard the words, but then he sneered to himself, and within a quarter of an hour, he could find out the problem with his Wang Zhengkun's accounts.
   Li Jingmo also couldn't believe it, he hesitated: "Xuan'er, take it seriously?"
   Li Zexuan took the watch he drew, walked to Li Jingmo and nodded, "Naturally take it seriously."
   then turned his head to look at Wang Zhengkun. Although he looked scared, Li Zexuan caught the sarcasm in the corner of his eyes.
   Li Zexuan sneered in his heart: "Huh, old stuff, you still don't believe me, I will expose your sins today and let you go to jail."
   Li Zexuan is not talking nonsense at the moment, picking up the financial statement he made, and saying coldly to Wang Zhengkun:
"Wang Zhengkun, this year's clothing store on the 20th day of the first month will have less money, 16 bucks, eight bucks and three cents, on the 25th day of the first month, low bucks, nine bucks, 6 bucks, and 9 bucks, and on the fifth day of February, 4 bucks and 8 bucks. Yesterday, 13 pennies for less than three months, seven and four cents, Wang Zhengkun secretly deducted 26 pennies, a total of 280 pens, nine and six cents, you plead guilty!"
   Li Zexuan's voice was thunderous and shocking. Lan'er looked at her elder brother in admiration. Although she didn't understand the twists and turns between adults, she just felt that her brother was just so powerful and powerful.
Xiaohe Xiaoxi also has a lot of colors in his eyes. He admires his young master for his handsome appearance and good martial arts. Now he understands mathematics, and he is even better than that of the Guozijian doctor. anthomaniac.
But Wang Zhengkun is not in such a good mood now. With Li Zexuan's repayments one by one, although it is still spring, his sweat can't help dripping drop by drop. There is no more sarcasm in his eyes, replaced by endless. Panic.
   When Li Zexuan finished speaking, his back was completely wet, his legs trembled, and he couldn't help kneeling to Li Jingmo anymore, crying:
"Master, master, the old slave knows that he is wrong. It is all blamed on the evil man in the old slave's house. He was accused of entering the gambling shop and owed a gambling debt. If the old slave does not pay him back, the group will break his Hands and feet, the old slave is just such a son. Master, I blame the old slave for being obsessed. The master thinks that the old slave has spared the old slave for so many years of hard work in the clothing store."
Xu Hongzhi originally didn't believe that Li Zexuan had found out the problem with the accounts, but when he saw Wang Zhengkun what he was doing now, it was obvious that Li Zexuan was not bad just now, and he was shocked and leaped for a bit. He wanted to take Li Zexuan and take him just now. Asked clearly about the bookkeeping method and the strange text, but now this situation is obviously inappropriate, and the old friend still has housework to deal with.
Seeing Wang Zhengkun's confession, Li Jingmo was surprised at his son's arithmetic ability and angry at Wang Zhengkun's malicious deception. Today, if his son hadn't helped him, he would have been fooled by this old slave. It was really a villain to deceive the Lord, and he was very angry. , I was planning to send this old slave to official, but after listening to Wang Zhengkun's words, he felt a little softhearted. He also had a son. As a father, he sympathized with Wang Zhengkun's experience, but he deducted so much money. .
   Seeing Li Jingmo feel a little soft, Li Zexuan quickly said:
"Father, you must not relent. Even if he wants to pay off his son's debts, he can't harm the interests of the clothing store. He can borrow money from you. It's stealing without telling you. He made false accounts to escape. responsibility.
   If he really knows that he was wrong, he should take the initiative to admit his mistake when you questioned him just now, instead of waiting until now when there is hard evidence. If the cost of crime is so low, then who will abide by the law in the future, the poor person must be hateful, dad, you should send him off to the official, the clothing store you should choose a loyal and honest shopkeeper. "
   Xu Hongzhi nodded repeatedly when he heard Li Zexuan from the side, he also said to Li Jingmo: "Brother Jingmo, what Linglang said is the truth. Wang Zhengkun and others must not be indulged."
After speaking, I watched Li Zexuan admiring Li Jingmo: "Brother Jingmo, you have given birth to a good son. Let Lang know how to calculate and understand things. The foolish brother who said the truth is also greatly admired. It is really a Qianlong in the Yuan. Wind and cloud will turn the dragon into a dragon."
   Li Zexuan hurriedly praised Mr. Dao, and he can't afford such praise.
   Li Jingmo also felt that his son’s words were quite reasonable, and he was very happy when he heard the compliments of his old friends, but it was not easy to show it in front of others, and said with dignity:
   "Mr. Xu is really too acclaimed. The dog has a tired and lazy temperament and needs to be polished."
   then ordered: "Sanbao, Afu, you two will send Wang Zhengkun off to an official, and then you will go back to the house directly."
   The two took their orders and stepped forward to support Wang Zhengkun who had already fainted.
   "Father, it's time to go home, the West Market will close in a while."
   Seeing it's getting late outside, Li Zexuan urged.
   "Well, then go home together."
   Li Jingmo nodded, and then invited Xu Hongzhi: "Mr. Xu, would you like to sit in the cold house together?"
   Xu Hongzhi waved his hand quickly:
   "Forget it today, I will definitely visit my house next day. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com still wants to ask Linglang for advice on this method of bookkeeping. I hope Linglang will give him advice at that time."
   Li Zexuan even said he dare not dare. Several people parted in West Market to say goodbye.
   Li Jingmo hired a carriage, and a family of three got into the carriage and drove slowly towards the Li Mansion.
   On the way, Li Jingmo asked: "Xuan'er, why did you come to Xishi today? Don't say that you came to see Dad specifically, don't believe me for my father."
   Li Jingmo saw that Li Zexuan wanted to come up to flatter him, and immediately added.
   Li Zexuan really wanted to say this just now, but he didn't expect to be seen through by the witty old man. He had to swallow the words that came to his lips, choked hard, and said for a long time:
   "The boy is quite boring to see his sister staying at home. Today I accompanied Lan'er to see juggling in West Market."
"Yes, dad, that juggling is pretty good. My brother still made Lan'er a chicken that Lan'er had never eaten before in Zuixianlou. There were a few pieces of gnawed chicken that we could not eat, so we were snatched by a black-faced brother who almost licked the plate clean when he ate. My brother also asked shopkeeper Liu to sell the gnawed chicken tomorrow. By then, I will definitely make a lot of money for Daddy."
   Lan'er immediately twittered like a little sparrow next to him, sharing today's happy things with her father.
   Li Zexuan was sweating violently when he listened to the sidelines, "I’m so big that I’m holding my belly", is this what a girl should say? There are also those "black-faced brother" words that schedule Cheng Chumo, and Cheng Chumo didn't know if he would vomit blood after hearing it.
   Li Jingmo didn’t care when he heard the gnawing chicken, he just treated it as his own kid’s jokes, he didn’t care whether he made money or not, but the name was so weird...
   The night slowly came down, and the carriage moved away.
