It must be said that the wheel of history has really gone astray. Anyway, Yinzuo could not imagine what the cold-faced King Yongzheng in history looked like when he asked for help. But look at him now, his fourth brother didn't even stutter after hearing what he said just now.
"Okay, since Fourth Brother has asked me for help, I will reluctantly help you."
Yinzhen looked at Yinzuo, who was smiling and holding his chin up proudly, and couldn't help but laugh and scold the little bastard in his heart. Then, as if afraid that he would go back on his word, he quickly asked someone to bring a desk over and put it in the space between himself and Yinreng. He turned around, took the abacus from Wanquan and handed it to Yinzuo. After completing this series of actions, he pulled him to sit in front of the desk.
"Then Fourth Brother would like to thank Sixth Brother first. From now on, I will trouble you to take care of these account books."
As the saying goes, once you learn something, it will be yours forever. Even though Yinzuo had not touched the abacus for many years, he had not forgotten the skill of moving the beads. He might have been a little unfamiliar with it at the beginning, but after gradually becoming familiar with it, his speed in calculating the accounts was so fast that Yinzhen and Yinreng could not catch up with him.
But the same thing goes, no matter how capable a person is, he can't conquer the world. Yinzuo had only been busy for an hour or so, but he was already so tired that his back and waist ached and he wanted to go on strike.
"Second brother, fourth brother, are you tired? Do you want to get up and stretch your body and have some tea and snacks?"
Yinreng and Yinzhen are both human and machine. They have hardly had any rest in the past two days, so how could they not feel tired? In the past, they had no time to rest because of the tight schedule and heavy tasks. Now with Yinzuo, a human-shaped calculator, the pressure on the two of them was relieved a lot, and naturally they were willing to stop and relax.
As a disciple of Liang Jiugong, Wan Quan naturally had a sharp eye. When he heard Yinzuo asking Yinreng and Yinzhen if they were tired and wanted to drink tea and have snacks, he quietly winked at the people next to him. As soon as Yinzuo and his two brothers sat down at a table nearby, the tea and snacks were served to them.
"Second brother, fourth brother, look at how many account books there are. Even if the three of us work day and night, it will take us a while. As the saying goes, if you can't lead a team, you have to see it through to the end. Are the eldest brother and the others still so busy lately? If they are not busy, can we grab a strong man from them? It will be easier for everyone if we finish the work sooner."
Yinreng and Yinzhen obviously also deeply felt that happiness is better shared with others than happiness alone. The three brothers looked at each other and almost hit it off immediately. So within an hour or so, Yinzhi, Yinzhi and others were invited to the Qianqing Palace by the three of them using various excuses.
At this time, the meeting hall in the Palace of Heavenly Purity had already changed its appearance. Desks were placed in a circle, and each desk had pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and abacus on it, while the open space in the middle was filled with unprocessed account books.
"Oh, this is clearly a Hongmen Banquet. Come on, Xiaoliu, tell Big Brother what the rules are today?"
Isn't it said that you shouldn't hit a smiling person? Facing Yinzhi's questioning, Yinzuo felt that he could just smile and that would be the end of it. After all, he was the one who needed help from others now, and he couldn't act like he did just now.
"Look at what you're saying, big brother. How can this be a Hongmen Feast? I haven't seen you all in a while, so I thought I'd get everyone together. Of course, I have a small favor to ask you to help me with. See those ledgers in the middle? Since you're here, could you help me figure them out?"
Yinzhen, Yinzhi and the others were not blind. The huge pile of account books was piled there so clearly. Even if they wanted to pretend not to see it, it would be difficult. Moreover, at this point, could they still say no? Even if they said no, could they just walk away?
"Xiao Liu, what will you do if big brother doesn't agree?"
As the saying goes, "Birds of a feather flock together." Yinzhi and his brothers have been together for a long time, so it is inevitable that they will pick up some of each other's habits. Look, they have decided to stay and help, but Yinzhi still doesn't allow Yinzuo to be teased.
"Brother, if you don't agree, can I still tie you up here with a rope? But since you asked, I will kindly remind you that this is Khan Ama's bedroom. If I shout for help, then..."
Then… was there any need to think about it? His father immediately came out of the study, and then they were all punished, no one was guaranteed to get away with it. Now, if they just sat down and calculated the accounts, it would be called helping. If they waited until their Khan-Ama came out of the study, hehe, that would be called being punished.
"Okay, Xiaoliu, you're really good. You really know how to control us. Brothers, let's not stand here anymore. Let's find a place to sit. If we finish this sooner, we can go back and rest earlier."
It must be said that strength comes from numbers. By the time Kangxi finished processing the memorials and came out of the study, half of the account books on the floor had been processed. The old father looked at his sons sitting together, working together to carefully check the account books, and he felt very relieved. This is what should be done. His sons should be like this, brothers united, friendly and respectful to each other...
"Liang Jiugong, go to the imperial kitchen and tell them to forget about lunch and prepare a richer dinner with all the flavors the princes like. Oh, and don't forget to ask them to make more roasted lamb chops and other mutton. Yinzuo loves these..."
How does the saying go? Everything was fine when it came here, but who knew it would never go back. Yinzhen and his colleagues were so busy that they didn't even have a chance to catch their breath until the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month when Kangxi put down his pen.
"Finally, I have a break. I used to only know that the fourth child was a hard-working person, but I didn't expect that our sixth child was also a hard-working person. Look at how dark his eyes are. I'm afraid they're almost as dark as the iron-eating beast I sent him to be."
"Third brother, just be content. This is just the beginning. If you've ever worked under him, you'll know what it means to work yourself to death. Sixth brother, I've been wanting to ask you for a long time. Aren't you the laziest of us, and isn't your dream to be a playboy? Then why do you work so hard?"
That's a good question, but next time, please don't ask why he works so hard. Isn't he just trying to escape his misery? Rather than dawdling like an old ox pulling a broken cart, it's better to cut the Gordian knot.
"That's true. I do want to be a playboy, but even though I'm lazy, I understand the saying, 'Do your job well.' I either refuse to do something, or I'll go all out if I agree."
Yinzhi and the others clearly agreed with Yinzuo's answer. Thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be true. Although people would not easily agree to take on any task, once they agreed, they would definitely go all out and treat it seriously. This was the case with the disaster relief, the Dai Zi incident, the Ministry of Revenue's account book verification, and this time as well...
