Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

After listening to Li Zhen's narration, Chu Mo was a little confused: "When was the food sold out? If it was sold before the price of food rose, it couldn't be sold at a low price, right?"

"But if it is sold after food prices rise, it should be a guaranteed profit without losing money."

Li Zhen nodded: "Yes, this is the problem we can't figure out, so my mother ordered me to come over to check the accounts."

Chu Mo nodded: "I understand, Brother Li, ask someone to bring all the account books over to me and I will try my best to calculate the accounts clearly for you."

Seeing that Chu Mo had said this, Li Zhen had no objection. Several people walked into the store and directly asked the shopkeeper to hand over the accounts.

The shopkeeper had seen a group of people looking around at the door before, but he didn't know that it was his eldest lady coming over.

As soon as the other party came in, he asked for his account book, so he knew he was well prepared.

But he has also been an old shopkeeper for decades. How could he be worried about someone checking the accounts, so he immediately handed over a thick stack of account books.Put it on the counter.

Chu Mo was about to step forward to check, but was stopped by the shopkeeper.

"This little brother, I don't know your last name. Who did you learn from?"

When Chu Mo heard this, he came to check the account. Did the other party want to check the account?

Immediately he snorted coldly: "My surname is Lao, my name is Dad, and I came from the Water Curtain Cave in Huaguo Mountain under the guidance of the Great Sage Qitian."

"Dad? Such a strange name? This is really rare." The shopkeeper didn't react for a while and started mumbling.

"Good son, get out of your way and don't hinder me here."

With that said, he was about to step forward again.

At this time, the shopkeeper also realized that he had been tricked, and immediately said angrily: "How dare you bully me, little kid with a yellow mouth."

Chu Mo curled his lips: "You dare to be so presumptuous when your young master is here. If your young master is not here, I think you can fly into the sky. Those who don't know think that we are guests and you are the host."

"You...you...what are you talking nonsense about? I am loyal to our boss, so don't talk nonsense."

"Shopkeeper Hu, this is the guest I invited. Please don't hinder him from checking the accounts here."

Li Zhen on the side saw that the two were about to quarrel and spoke hurriedly.

Shopkeeper Hu didn't dare to make any more noise when he saw Li Zhen speaking. He gave Chu Mo a vicious look, then snorted and went behind the counter.

Chu Mo frowned. The other party must be confident in his behavior.

"Brother Li, I think this is not the place to do business. How about we find a quieter place?"

Chu Mo had planned to check the accounts here before. Li Zhen did not refute, but just followed his wishes.

Now I heard that Chu Mo wanted to change the place to check the accounts, so it was best not to come here.

Immediately, Li Zhen asked Xiong Daxiong Er to take the account book to his other courtyard.

After a few people left, shopkeeper Hu cursed a few words at the departing figures, then closed the door and went to sleep.

Chu Mo and his party soon arrived at a courtyard in Anyifang.

Looking at this courtyard, which is only one street away from Mingde Gate, Chu Mo felt that ten thousand grass and mud horses were passing by.

Damn it, I was hiding here and there, why did I come here again?

I am here, if they start looking for me, I won't even hear the news, and I will be found immediately.

He thought so, but Chu Mo had nowhere to go now and could only follow everyone into the courtyard.

Although it is very close to Mingdemen, it is not noisy at all, but has a different kind of tranquility.

The courtyard is an ordinary farmyard. There is a large locust tree in the courtyard and a small cultivated vegetable plot under the tree.

There are some peas, leeks, green onions and other things planted in the vegetable field.

Beside the courtyard wall, there are some potted flowers placed.

Chu Mo followed Li Zhen to the study.

The bookshelves in the study room are filled with books, and there is an unfinished painting on Sufang's desk.

Chu Mo glanced at it and found that the font was round and handsome, as if it was written by a woman.

After Li Zhen saw the calligraphy on the desk, she immediately asked Xiong Er to sort it out.

Then let Chu Mo settle down here while she and others wait outside the door. If you need anything, just say hello and she will arrange it for you.

Chu Mo was very satisfied with Li Zhen's attitude.

He himself also knows that when it comes to settling accounts, he is most afraid of being disturbed by others. If someone interrupts the calculation in the middle, it is easy to make mistakes.

After a few people went out, Chu Mo opened the account book alone.

Fortunately, Chu Mo recognized most of the fonts on it. As for the ones he didn't recognize, they were all insignificant.

Taking out a piece of white paper, Chu Mo found a bamboo stick, stuck it with ink and started counting.

Soon, he frowned.

Because the number on the ledger was the same as the number he finally calculated.

Whether it is input or output, it is completely the same.

Unwilling to give up, he picked up another book and read it carefully.

However, the final result was the same as the first time, with no deviation at all.

This made him a little surprised.

It seemed that shopkeeper Hu was really well prepared.

Thinking of this, Chu Mo called Li Zhen in at the door.

"Brother Chu, have you found out the problem?"

Li Zhen thought that Chu Mo had discovered something so quickly, and she was immediately overjoyed.

Chu Mo shook his head: "Brother Li, it seems that you, the shopkeeper, have some skills. It will take us a lot of effort to find out his tricks."

"Brother Chu, what do you mean?" Li Zhen was a little confused.

Chu Mo pointed to the pile of account books in front of him and said, "That guy is a veteran, there will definitely be no problems in these accounts."

"Ah, there is nothing wrong with the accounts, so what should we do?"

"Brother Li, don't worry. No matter how clear and clear his accounts are, there will eventually be flaws."

With that said, Chu Mo started talking with Li Zhen in a low voice.

Soon, Li Zhen walked out of the room and said to Xiong Da and Xiong Er: "Go and bring the account books of the other two grain stores."

When Xiong Daxiong Er heard this, he was a little confused, but he had to listen to the young lady's order.He could only blame Chu Mo for a few words, and then ran out in a hurry.

Half an hour later, Xiong Da came back first.

When he placed a stack of account books in front of Chu Mo that was taller than Chu Mo, Chu Mo was really shocked.

"Why did you bring so many account books?"

"Didn't you say, get all their ledgers back?"

Li Zhen stuck out her tongue and said embarrassedly: "Brother Chu, it was my fault at this time. I didn't explain it clearly to them."

"Xiong Da, Mr. Chu just asked me to bring their account books for the last six months, not all of them. Therefore, it is a bit inappropriate for you to move so many, but this is all my fault for not explaining clearly."
