Chapter 145 Accounting
Little Abu and the others glanced at the two of them, not taking them seriously at all, and continued to work hard in the pile of food.
Wen Yongman looked at Chun Shuisheng in front of him, frowning in confusion.
Wen Zhen saw that he looked a little strange: "What's wrong with Xiaoman?"
"Sister, I want to try this, but I can't finish it."
Wen Zhenyi looked at the two-thirds of Chun Shuisheng still on his plate and said, "I'll give you half."
"good."
Wen Zhenyi took a spoon and divided Chunshuisheng into two halves, gave one half to Wen Yongman, and kept the other half for himself.
Little Abu couldn't eat anymore: "I wish my appetite was bigger."
"Don't eat too much, otherwise your stomach will expand."
"Isn't it good to have an enlarged stomach?" Mantou looked at her with confusion.
"Of course it's not good. If your stomach expands, you'll have to eat a lot in the future. You might become a fat man, which is not good for your health."
The children wanted to eat more, but after hearing what she said, they put down their chopsticks silently.
"You can eat smaller meals more often, and you don't have to eat too much at once."
"Sister Wen, we will remember this."
Wen Zhenyi slowly ate the food in front of him. Although the food looked like a lot, it actually wasn't that much. The only thing that could fill him up was the steamed bun.
Considering her current physical strength and amount of exercise, these things are not enough to support her.
After dinner, she could finally rest for a while. It was still early today, so she and Shen Hanxing discussed the account book issue in the corner of the hall.
Wen Zhenyi saw that everyone in the hall had gone to the backyard, and there were not many people here: "Little Abu's guards are here."
Shen Hanxing was stunned. “When?”
"yesterday."
"My grandfather and I also received news that something happened in Fuzhou City some time ago. No one dares to reveal the details, but we only heard that the army has been dispatched and is searching for someone."
"Also, Grandpa heard that things haven't been peaceful up there lately. It seems..." Chen Hanxing made a gesture of wiping his neck: "Many people have been executed."
Wen Zhenyi frowned slightly: "Have any envoys from other countries visited recently?"
"How do you know?"
"If I'm not mistaken, little Abu's parents should be envoys, and their status is not low. The guards yesterday called little Abu "Your Highness."
"I guessed wrong before, but it seems I'm right. We still don't know the situation of little Abu's parents and sister, so we can only wait and see."
Wen Zhen nodded: "It's better if nothing happens to them. If something happens, it might start a war."
Chen Hanxing frowned. If a war broke out, the good days of ordinary people like them would be over. "Let's wait a little longer."
"Let's talk about the account book."
Chen Hanxing took out the account book: "Not planning to open the business?"
Wen Zhenyi was stunned. She seemed to have forgotten about this matter: "If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have really forgotten about it."
"Didn't you say that tomorrow is worse than tomorrow?"
"I haven't even checked what ingredients they bought today. They might be a little rushed tomorrow."
"But I think that whether you use breakfast as an opening ceremony or not, your business will still be just as good."
"What you said seems to be correct. Let's just skip it." Wen Zhenyi shrugged indifferently.
Shen Hanxing smiled and opened the account book: “Take a look and see how to change it.”
Wen Zhenyi took out a piece of paper and drew a few lines and grids on it.
Shen Hanxing tilted her head and looked at the large and small grids she drew on the paper, somewhat confused about their purpose.
Wen Zhenyi didn't draw much, just a simple outline: "Brother Shen, you do the rest."
Shen Hanxing took the brush: "What do you want to do?"
Wen Zhenyi pointed to the first box and said, "Write the date here, the project here, debit here, and the column behind it is credit."
Shen Hanxing wrote it down as she requested, but still didn’t quite understand the purpose of these things: “Is this all right?”
Wen Zhen nodded: "Okay, I'll tell you how to use these things now."
"you say."
"The date is written as year, month, and day. For example, if it's an account that happened today, you would write today's date. Then write the purpose of the money here. For example, if it's buying food, you would write "purchase of food" and then put the amount of the loan here."
"If it's the proceeds from selling something, write it in the debit column. Then write the balance at the top, which is the remaining silver."
Shen Hanxing listened to the method she said: "I'll try it." Then he compared it with the previous account book and wrote the items and amounts in the corresponding positions.
After he finished writing the accounts for the day and compared them, he found that they were much clearer. He could know at a glance how much he had spent and how much he had earned that day.
Wen Zhenyi continued, "At the end of the last month, add last month's balance to this month's income, subtract this month's expenses, and you'll know how much money we have. If you don't add the balance, subtract expenses from income, and you'll still know whether we made a profit or loss this month."
Chen Hanxing carefully looked at the clauses on the paper, and compared it with the account book he used before, and found that it was really much more convenient. Many times, if you were not careful when calculating the accounts with copper coins and small change, it would be easy to make mistakes.
"Grandpa, come here for a moment."
Shen Xiucai was originally teaching a few children to read in the backyard. When he heard Shen Hanxing calling him, he walked in: "What's wrong?"
Shen Hanxing handed him the thing in his hand and said, “Grandpa, take a look at this.”
Shen Xiucai took the paper from his hand, not quite understanding it: "What is this?"
"Just sit down and I'll explain it to you."
After Shen Xiucai sat down, he saw him put an account book in front of him: "Compare it."
He compared the contents of the account book with the paper and immediately discovered something: "Is this accounting?"
Shen Hanxing nodded: "Look at these two methods, which one is more convenient?"
"Of course it's on paper, so people can see at a glance what money was spent on what."
"What do you think if the private school's accounting method is changed to this, would it work?"
Shen Xiucai pondered for a moment and said, "I need to take this back to the private school and discuss it with the teacher there before I can find out." Then he looked at Wen Zhenyi and said, "Wen girl, this is another idea you came up with?"
"This is not something I came up with. It's just the wisdom of our ancestors that I just happened to know."
"But I'll have to borrow your shop's account books."
"No problem, Grandpa Shen, just take it and use it. Anyway, Brother Shen helped me with the accounting."
Chen Hanxing also planned to borrow the account book and copy it again according to the method she said to see how it works.
