Mr. Zhuang smiled slightly, and said, "Look carefully, and see if you can understand in the end."
Master Bai smiled and narrowed his eyes.
With a bucket, not only can you check the status of each seed, but you can also not shake the bucket, and the bucket will go down sharply. It can be twelve catties, or twelve and a half catties. Experienced people, For example, the yamen servant in charge of collecting taxes in the county government office can get thirteen catties for a fight.
Master Bai decided to use the bucket all the time when he went to Lao Zhou's house.
But for the old Zhou's family, they can be completely business-like, and there is no need to be so strict with the third child, so half and half, just let them learn a lesson.
Master Bai consciously pulled back the round, feeling refreshed.
The unloaded wheat was placed on the ground, and the long-term worker stepped forward to untie the bag. Master Bai's housekeeper had already prepared it, and stepped forward with a bucket, followed by a servant holding a bag.
The two of them cooperated, and the butler went down the fight without a pause in the middle, and poured it directly into the empty bag. He and Bai Zhuangtou reported a "one" together, and then continued.
Read a number for each bucket, and when a bag is filled, if there is not enough bucket left, keep it for counting with the next bag, and then master Bai's accountant and Bai Erlang write down a number in their respective account books together.
Man Bao and Bai Shanbao, who were sitting on the side, dialed the counting chips together.
Bai Erlang is also learning to count chips recently, but Mr. Zhuang is not strict with him.
Because in Mr. Zhuang's opinion, his arithmetic has not yet reached the stage where he can learn counting chips, but because he bought the counting chips back, Mr. Zhuang has been paying close attention to his arithmetic recently.
Bai Erlang didn't know that he was cheated by his senior sister and senior brother, and he also felt that his husband had been very lenient to him recently, and he would smile at him every time he learned to count, and never made things difficult for him.
So recently he is still a little enthusiastic about things like bookkeeping.
They went to measure the second bag. Man Bao was a little bored, so he looked around and calculated the price of the fourteen buckets.
In order to save space, the sacks they use to hold the wheat are the largest sacks, each of which weighs about one stone, weighing about 160 to 70 catties.
In contrast, the sacks generally used by farmers are much smaller. Manbao often counts for himself when paying taxes, knowing that a bag of wheat is about a hundred catties.
One Dou is one hundred and fifty Wen, fourteen Dou is...
Man Bao stumbled through his counting chips, looking at the calculated numbers.
She blinked, a little suspicious, "So much?"
Bai Shanbao leaned over to take a look, and even did the calculations. The two were surprised to find that the numbers they calculated were the same.
So that means, they got it right
The two looked at each other and couldn't help but let out a wow.
Bai Erlang immediately lost his mind, leaned over and asked, "What's the matter, what's the matter?"
Man Bao immediately asked him to write down the amount of money at the back, "Just write down two thousand and one hundred cash, and we can add it directly later, so that we don't have to multiply it again."
"That's right, it's faster this way." Bai Shanbao took up a pen and made a demonstration on Bai Erlang's notebook, and wrote "Two thousand and one hundred coins" after the first bag totaled fourteen buckets.
Master Bai and Mr. Zhuang looked at each other, and Master Bai immediately looked at the servants behind him, and ordered: "Go and get another bucket. It's too slow for one person to measure, so the two of you need to go together."
There was an extra group of people, and the three children were in a hurry. Just after measuring a bag here, the number was reported on the head of Baizhuang. Bai Erlang hadn't finished writing, and the group next to him had also finished measuring.
The long-term worker in charge of supervision on their side also reported the number, and then continued with the next bag.
Bai Erlang couldn't help shaking his hands, and muttered something in his mouth. After he finished writing the numbers in Baizhuang's head newspaper, he immediately went to write about the long-term workers, for fear that he would forget after writing.
Then Bai Shanbao and Man Bao on the side used calculations to figure out the amount of money, and sometimes they agreed, and asked Bai Erlang to record it, and if they were different, they calculated it again.
So you have to count two sets of numbers at least once every time.
It's just a few days since they just learned to count, and although they are familiar with Jiujiuge, they stutter and slow when setting up the counting chips.
Every time Bai Erlang hadn't finished remembering their numbers, the people who were measuring at the side reported the numbers again.
Bai Erlang was so busy that he couldn't wipe off the sweat on his forehead, so Bai Shanbao and Man Bao couldn't help but take out paper and pens to help. Each of them was responsible for a group of numbers, and they wrote them down first, and then copied them after Bai Erlang finished the previous ones.
While the two were distracted, memorizing and calculating, they were still chattering and complaining to Bai Erlang, "You write too slowly, you need to speed up."
Man Bao said: "I told you not to practice normally, and you didn't take notes when Mr. was in class, otherwise why would the speed be so slow?"
Master Bai at the side glared at his son, snorted and said nothing.
But Bai Erlang didn't have time to talk to his father right now, and he didn't hear the hum at all.
Seeing the three children in a hurry, Master Bai pursed his lips happily. After they got used to the speed, he signaled the housekeeper and others to speed up.
The third child was extremely busy, but fortunately, it was not as chaotic as it was at the beginning, at least they were busy and orderly.
Master Bai looked at it and felt very complicated.
He was a bystander, so he naturally knew that the stability in the busy schedule depended on Shanbao and Manbao being in charge of the game. The two were in charge of one side, recorded the data and then settled the accounts together. The son just needs to copy the numbers given on both sides.
Master Bai asked his servants to bring two chairs, and sat with Mr. Zhuang under the eaves, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, watching with relish and sighing at the same time.
Mr. Zhuang drank tea with a smile. He felt that Bai Er had improved a lot compared to last year. This was naturally due to the development of the small class, which gave him more energy to stare at him.
Also because Man Bao and Shan Bao always take him to play now.
In the past, there were many students in the school, Bai Er had his own good friends, and Man Bao and Bai Shan Bao also had classmates who had better fun.
They have their own circles after class and after school.
But the school is gone, the circles of the three, no, it should be the circles of the two parties that are passively overlapping.
Man Bao and Shan Bao would follow Bai Er to the fields to touch loaches after it rained, and Bai Er would follow them to read and write in the study when it rained.
Bai Er's studies have improved, and Shanbao and Manbao have become more integrated into the children of the same age in Qili Village. This effect is mutual.
Bag after bag of wheat was opened and measured into another bag, and the booklet in front of Bai Er also turned page after page.
After reckoning to measure half of the wheat, Master Bai directly asked his servants to tie the grain bag to the large scale to weigh the rest.
This number is completely different from the previous ones, it is calculated on the basis of twelve and a half cents per catty, which caused Bai Shanbao and Man Bao a lot of headaches.
