451 Chapter 448

Goudan was a little hesitant. He had a good score in arithmetic, but he hadn't used it in practice, and he didn't know if he could do it.

Ma Li smiled and said, "Brother Zhou, it's just a test. If you don't figure it out, I won't blame you. You said you are Dr. Li's student, you are not lying, right?"

"I didn't lie." Goudan blushed, a little angry.

Although he has not studied for a long time, he has learned etiquette, righteousness, benevolence, wisdom and trustworthiness.

Ma Li said he was lying, how could he not be angry.

"Then why don't you want to try?" Ma Li asked.

"I...I want to see something." Goudan said.

"I'll ask someone to look at it for you." Ma Ma turned back to the store and called a waiter to help Goudan look at things.

"Let's go." Ma Li said, looking at Goudan.

After all, Goudan was young, so he couldn't refuse to be run over by Ma Li after a few words, so he followed Ma Li into the store with some trepidation.

Shopkeeper Sun had just sent a customer away, and when he saw Mali came back, he said with a smile on his face, "Didn't you go back, my boss?"

He was entertaining guests just now, and he didn't notice Ma Li came in once.

Ma Li waved his hand and said, "I invited a Mr. Accountant to come over and take a look at the accounts, so go ahead."

Shopkeeper Sun was a little flustered, but his face remained calm. He looked outside but saw no one, and asked strangely, "Where's Mr. Accountant?"

Ma Li pointed at Goudan and said, "This is it."

"This..." Shopkeeper Sun was stunned.

It's not that he didn't see Goudan just now, but he really didn't expect an eight or nine-year-old child to be the accountant Mr. Ma invited back.

When he came back to his senses, shopkeeper Sun was overjoyed.

He teamed up with the former accountant and got a lot of money from Mashibuzhuang.

It had been fine all along, but Ma Li had noticed something was wrong recently.

Not only did he fire the previous accountant, but he has also been investigating recently.

If it wasn't for dragging his family with him, he couldn't run away, he would have run away long ago.

Now Ma Li actually brought back an eight or nine-year-old child, who he said was Mr. Accountant.

For such an older child, it is good to be able to read and write. As for the settlement, don't be kidding.

"Boss, then take this little gentleman to look at the account book, the old slave will go to work first." Shopkeeper Sun laughed.

If it was normal, he would definitely go to see it, but Goudan's age was too deceptive, so he wasn't worried at all.

Mali came to the counter with Goudan, took out the account book, and said, "This account book seems to be very normal, but there are some things that don't match up. I can't see the problem. Try it and see if you can find the problem."

Goudan took the ledger, opened it and looked at it.

The numbers on the ledger were not the Arabic numerals he was familiar with, so Goudan couldn't help frowning.

Ma Ma has been paying attention to Goudan's expression, seeing that he frowned just as he opened the account book, feeling a little disappointed in his heart.

Although he didn't have too much hope for Goudan, he still had some expectations.

"Do you have pen, ink and paper?" Goudan asked.

"It's okay, it doesn't matter if you don't know it..." Ma Li came back to his senses and asked, "What did you say?"

"I said, do you have pen, ink and paper here?" Goudan said.

"Yes, yes." Ma Li asked, "Little brother, can you count?"

"I haven't calculated yet, I can't be sure now. I need to calculate first." Goudan said.

Ma Li nodded, and found the pen, ink, paper and inkstone used by the accountant before, and polished it himself.

"Go slowly, come again next time."

Shopkeeper Sun sent the guests away, looked at the counter, saw Goudan writing something there with a serious expression, and sneered in his heart.

Shen Yue'e returned to the agreed place, but didn't see Goudan, and panicked.

Seeing that the things were still there, and there was still a little girl standing beside her, Shen Yuee asked anxiously: "Did you see a child who was here just now?"

"Is the child you're talking about about this tall?" Xiao Er asked with a gesture.

Shen Yue'e nodded quickly, and said, "Yes, yes, what about others?"

She couldn't imagine how she could go back and face Zhou A Niu if she lost the dog egg.

"Our boss asked me to help him look at things, and he went in with our boss." Xiaoer said.

Shen Yue'e didn't care to think about it, put down the things in her hand, and rushed into the cloth shop.

"Goudan." Seeing Goudan, Shen Yue'e exclaimed.

"Mother!" Goudan heard the voice, quickly put down his pen, and went up to meet her.

Seeing that Goudan was fine, Shen Yue'e breathed a sigh of relief, and blamed: "Didn't you be asked to watch things there? Why are you running around?"

"This should be the mother of little brother Zhou Zhizhou, right? I'm the owner of Mashibuzhuang, please help me to settle the accounts, I'm worrying you." Ma Li laughed.

Shen Yue'e was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that Zhou Zhi was Goudan's name, and said, "It's okay, I just didn't see him just now, and it scared me."

"Thank you Mrs. Zhou for your forgiveness. I still need to trouble Brother Zhou for a while. I wonder if Mrs. Zhou is willing?" Ma Li said.

"Mother." Goudan looked at his mother. He wanted to settle the score for Ma Ma. After all, Ma Ma promised to pay him the usual money, but he didn't know how to say it.

"Goudan has not been studying for a long time, so I'm afraid he won't be able to help you much." Shen Yue'e was afraid of getting into trouble, so she refused without even thinking about it.

"Mrs. Zhou, as long as little brother Zhou can help me find the problem, I will give you the usual money as a reward. Even if you can't find it, it doesn't matter." Ma Li laughed.

He knows how to impress people.

Although money is not everything, but in most cases, it is still very useful.

Hearing Ma Li's words, Shen Yue'e's heart was indeed moved.

But Goudan has only been studying for half a year, can it be calculated?

"Mom, I want to try." Goudan said.

Shen Yue'e hesitated for a while, then nodded.

Ma Li was very good at business, invited Shen Yue'e to sit down, and asked someone to pour her a cup of hot water.

The sun is setting, and in another hour or so, the gongs and drums of the West Market will sound. At that time, the shops will be closed and everyone must go home. Chang'an City has a very strict curfew system.

The vendors outside shouted harder, trying to sell more goods in the last time.

It was quiet inside Mashibuzhuang.

Ma Li stood behind Goudan, watching Goudan writing and drawing there.

He couldn't understand what Goudan wrote, but he didn't think much about it.

At this time, calculus has not formed a system. When many people do arithmetic, they will draw something that they can only understand to represent something.

Seeing Goudan scribbling like ghosts and symbols on the paper, Ma Li has more confidence in Goudan.

Goudan put down his pen and said, "I found the problem."

Shopkeeper Sun was shocked. The accountant before told him that most people can't find the problem. How can an eight or nine-year-old child find the problem so quickly?

Could it be that this child was recruited by Ma Li to deceive him?

Shopkeeper Sun was a little surprised and uncertain for a while.

Ma Li asked with some surprise: "Is this true?"

"Really!" Goudan said confidently.

“今年正月少钱23贯八钱，二月少钱十九贯86钱，三月少钱28贯四钱……今年一年总共少钱290七贯520七钱。”狗蛋说道。

As Goudan repaid the accounts one by one, the cold sweat on Shopkeeper Sun's head grew more and more.

At first, he thought Goudan was a blind cat who ran into a dead mouse by mistake.

But Goudan said that the money he embezzled every month was not bad, his eyes were full of horror.

thump!

Shopkeeper Sun knelt down on the ground with a plop, and said, "Boss, I know I was wrong."
