Chapter 46 The mouth of the glutton

After Zhen Ping and Guo Yong received the promise of not robbing their family after the Taiping Cult rebellion here in Huo Hai, they were relieved of their hearts. As for the problems that might be encountered on the official side, they would solve them themselves.

Of course, they also have to pay a certain price to get Huo Hai's promise. Before spring, no matter how difficult it is, they will help Huo Hai get 10,000 stones of grain to grow. Next year, even if the Taiping Cult really fights with the court, Huo Hai will still lead everyone to grow some food.

Because only by producing more food can people starve to death less, and grain productivity is the fundamental solution to the problem.

For example, after the snow melts, the reed marshes around the algae pond have entered a development state again. Thousands of young and strong people and hundreds of oxen can develop more than 1,000 acres of land there every day in preparation for spring plowing next year.

Of course, these are all later stories. After discussing the Taiping Cult with Huo Hai, Zhen Ping and Guo Yong began to talk about the second thing, and two thick account books nailed on paper were pushed to Huo Hai by the two.

"What the hell?" Huo Hai frowned and frowned when he saw the dense traditional Chinese characters on it.

"This is the account book, building a warm room, building a warm kang, and selling snowflake salt, white paper and soap. All of them are here." Zhen Ping explained.

When Huo Hai heard this, he glanced at Chu Yu's direction. Soon, a booklet with only a few pages was taken by Chu Yu. After opening the booklet, she just glanced at Jieyu behind her, picked up Zhen Ping and Guo Yong's booklets, looked directly at the last one, and pushed it in front of Huo Hai.

"This account should be wrong. Did the account book be done by the account managers of your two families, or did it yourself?" Huo Hai handed the account book to them and said.

"Just look at the balance, you will know that the account is wrong?" Zhen Ping said with some surprise.

Huo Hai nodded and said, "Because it's so wrong, it's three times the budget we had when we shipped."

"three times?"

Zhen Ping was a little surprised. He picked up the booklet in Huo Hai's hand and immediately saw a string of symbols that he didn't recognize at all.

"This is?"

"Algebraic symbols." Huo Hai replied.

"Algebraic symbols? How do you recognize them?" Zhen Ping asked again.

Huo Hai glanced at Chu Yu, and soon, she talked about this algebraic talisman to Zhen Ping and Guo Yong.

"According to our shipment and work, you should pay us 73,200 stones of grain except for the food you shipped before. However, your general account is 23,000 stones of grain." After comparing the two books, he pointed it out to them.

Upon hearing this, Zhen Ping and Guo Yong frowned. They knew how many things the family had pulled from here, and there were definitely more than 20,000 stones of grain. However, they had read the account book before, so it was impossible to make a mistake, but Huo Hai's account seemed to be correct.

Moreover, the accounts they made were so clear that after recognizing the numerical symbols, they finished reading them within a cup of tea.

Because they go in and out, and they use the borrowing and credit accounting method.

They also have fixed standards for calculating shipment profits. As for how this standard comes from, they don’t know. However, after seeing that number, Zhen Ping felt it was very reasonable.

Because the price Huo Hai asked for was not high at all, at least not at all in his opinion.

"What's wrong with this?" Zhen Ping and Guo Yong read their account book and Chu Yu's account book twice or three times.

"Because your accounting method is wrong, there are many wrong calculations. In addition, I will ship to you and calculate the cost price. Your account gives us food, but first converts the barter's income into coins according to the actual value, and then converts it into food according to the quantity of these coins. After these two premiums, even if the accounts are right, there is a more than double gap, let alone the accounts are incorrect?"

Huo Hai means that the things exchanged for Heishanzhai products are estimated and calculated based on their actual value. However, when they paid Heishanshan, they used the market price to calculate the amount of grain. You must know that since the beginning of winter, the price of grain has increased by more than 50%, and each stone bean has been sold for more than 800 yuan. However, when the Zhen family bought these beans, it was less than 400 yuan per stone.

"Can you ask Miss Chu to help me calculate these accounts by using the method of credit accounting?" Zhen Ping said after understanding the gap.

Chu Yu looked at Huo Hai. Huo Hai gave her an encouraging look, and she began to pick up the pen and calculate. Baoer also helped her grind the ink and record the data.

In just about half an hour, all the income and expenses were obtained, and this value was twice as high as more than 20,000 stones they calculated before. If the price difference between the market prices and costs of the two ends was almost exactly the more than 70,000 stones calculated by Huo Hai before.

"This method is very wonderful. Come here, you can hold this order immediately and go back to check the warehouse. If the difference is almost the same, let your family send another 100,000 stones of grain to Heishan." Zhen Ping copied the note that Chu Yu calculated in Chinese characters and handed it to a follower beside him.

The accounts may indeed be wrong, but the amount of things stored in the warehouse in the house cannot be wrong. After all, even if calculated based on the accounts of the Zhen family, there is still a gap of more than 20,000 stones of grain, which is only more than 20,000 million yuan. Such a huge value gap is money and goods, and there will be some things in the warehouse.

"Brother Zhen, 100,000 stones of grain, but 50,000 stones are counted on my Guo family." Guo Yong also spoke at this time.

Zhen Ping nodded and intervened to bow to Huo Hai, "The accountant is not doing well, so I am laughing at you. This time we transported more than 20,000 stones of grain over, and then supplemented with another 100,000 stones, which is 50,000 stones more than the more than 70,000 stones that should have been given to Mr. Huo Hai. The 50,000 stones of grain are regarded as a gift from our two families to Mr. Huo Hai, and I hope Mr. Huo will accept it with a smile."

If anyone in this world can be so generous, because of a small mistake in the account, he will give 50,000 stones of grain as a plea, and only Wuji Zhen's family is the only one.

You should know that in history, Tao Qian's subordinates killed Cao Cao's father but offered a price of 200,000 s of grain and grass every year. Tao Qian was the rich lord of Xuzhou at that time, and had almost two and a half provinces in later generations and tax support from millions of people.

"When the settlement is settled, there is a difference in the amount, just make up for it. Why should Ji An do this?" Chu Yu and others, who were excited, never expected that Huo Hai would give Zhen Ping such an answer.

That is 50,000 stone of grain. There are now more than 100,000 people in the copycat, and more than 100,000 stones of grain will be consumed in a month. From now until the autumn harvest next year, there will be seven or eight months left. The most important thing is that the population of the copycat is still increasing day by day, and the food shortage is very huge. Even if it is a million stone, it may not be enough to eat.

"Uh, this, I really have a reluctance to ask." Zhen Ping bowed his hand again and said.

He had already put his posture so low that Huo Hai couldn't help but raise his hand and signaled that he didn't have to say that, "Ji Ping said it straight if you have something to say."

"Sir, can you teach all the numbers and the credit accounting method? If allowed, my Zhen family is willing to add more than 10,000 stones of good grain." Zhen Ping said.

Grain species generally have no grain that has been removed from shells, but most of the time, it is more expensive than the essence that has been removed from shells. One reason is that it needs to be selected and the quality itself is good.

Secondly, it needs to be dried and stored very well, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. After all, ordinary farmers may not build a barn that can avoid wind and rain or rain or be eaten by mice.

Third, every year, there are always some families who can't help but eat some of the grains, and finally they need to borrow high interest rates from big families like them.

Strictly speaking, it is a hard currency that lends money, which is easier to use than anything else.

Huo Hai shook his head with a smile, and Guo Yong, who had realized the importance of the digital symbol and the accounting method, also began to increase the price at this time, "My Guo family is also willing to raise 5,000 stones of grain for the teacher to plant it, plus 3,000 pigs and sheep each."

This price is already very considerable, and it is not bad compared to the price of 50,000 stones of grain. In other words, the two of them are willing to spend 100,000 stones of grain to exchange numbers with Huo Hai, and the method of debiting and credit accounting.

However, under the expectant gaze of everyone, Huo Hai shook his head again and said, "These two sciences are not so cheap."

"Critical? This is 15,000 stone of grain, 3,000 pigs, and 3,000 sheep. It's not a big deal. After the spring begins, I can exchange it for at least 10,000 yuan." Zhen Ping looked at Huo Haidao in disbelief.

He felt that if Huo Hai didn't sell the price so high, it would not be a short answer price question.

"The war is about to begin, what is the use of grain for you? It's useless. Even if I can let the Taiping Sect not steal the two of you, you will definitely not be able to collect the grain that has been planted in the fields. By then, there will be thousands of starving ghosts who will eat up all the food in the fields.

As for pigs and sheep, they are food-consuming things. Our Black Mountain Village is now more willing to slaughter them to eat meat than to raise them for a long time to reproduce and grow.

So, what I need is 80% of the food stored in your two families and edible livestock." Huo Hai said seriously.

"80% of the food and livestock stored? Mr. Huo, do you know what you are talking about?" Zhen Pingyou looked at Huo Haidao in a daze.

That's not as simple as ten million yuan, at least more than ten million yuan.

Guo Ping beside him was also embarrassed, because Huo Hai's request had exceeded the authority of his direct descendants, and even the head of the family could not easily decide such a big thing.

After all, cattle and sheep need to reproduce in groups to increase in number, and 80% of them are reduced at once. It may take many years to develop to its current scale.
