When the three chief stewards said something, the corresponding position on the map on the wall would become brighter, and the degree of brightness was different.
Tang Thirty-Six stood in the corner and listened, his expression becoming more and more serious. He couldn't understand the data in these reports, but he could feel the atmosphere.
The second master of the Tang family looked at the places that gradually lit up on the map, and he wasn't very nervous, nor did he become more relaxed as time passed.
To him, it seemed like it was just an ordinary job.
I don't know how long it took before the reports of the three senior managers were over. The second master of the Tang family looked at the map, frowned slightly, and said with some dissatisfaction, "The progress is still a bit slow."
The sound of the abacus beads colliding came in from outside the house, and the sounds of hundreds of abacus being pulled at the same time mixed together, which was really not pleasant.
A senior manager said: "I can only get some rough figures for this year's preparation time. The real calculation will start from tonight. It really can't be faster."
The second master of the Tang family looked at the accountants outside the house who were buried in the case and kept pulling out their abacus beads, and said, "At most there is still half an hour."
The big steward said, "I'll keep an eye on them."
"It's not enough to just stare." The second master of the Tang family stared into the eyes of the chief executive and said, "You guys go too, and besides, give me an abacus."
Not long after, the abacus and a large pile of files were brought in.
The second master of the Tang family ignored Tang Thirty-Six who was standing in the corner, turned over the file with his right hand, and kept pulling out the abacus beads with his left hand, and would stop for a while to make marks on the file.
Compared with those accountants outside the house, his speed does not seem to be particularly fast, but every movement is very clear. The speed of turning the file with the right hand and the calculation speed of the left hand are almost perfect in an inexplicable rhythm. Put together, looking at the dossier like a hill, it was quickly finished by him.
A subordinate moved a second pile of files from outside the house.
Not long after, it was over again.
Only at this moment, the second master of the Tang family took a short rest, picked up the teapot that had already cooled down from the table, and took a sip slowly.
In such a short period of time, after carrying out such a large amount of calculations, his face turned a little blue, which was due to too much loss of spiritual consciousness.
"If Xu Yourong is doing deduction and calculation here with the horoscope, it should be twice as fast as me."
The second master of the Tang family put down the teapot wearily, and said: "But if Wang Po is still working as the accountant at our house, why would I need to work so hard."
At this time, there were only him and Tang Sanshiliu in the room, so these words were naturally addressed to Tang Sanshiliu.
"Our family is in business, and we can't suffer losses in business. The old man asked Wang Po to leave Wenshui, and the business was too bad."
Tang Thirty-Six knew that the second uncle was warning him not to drag down the family's business because of Chen Changsheng and the Orthodox Academy.
"Wang Po left Wenshui back then, wasn't it because Second Uncle, you have a small stomach and a small stomach, and you didn't like him, so you tried every means to force him to leave?"
He looked at the second master of the Tang family and said with a slight sarcasm.
The second master of the Tang family looked at him quietly, and said, "Shut up, I still have a lot to do today, and I'm not in the mood to play these childish tricks with you."
The calculation results of hundreds of accountants were continuously collected in the hut, and then sorted into the simplest sentences.
Whether it can be confirmed somewhere in Kyoto and how strong it is are two things.
There are more and more dots on the map on the wall, gradually connecting into lines, and finally turning into an unintelligible pattern.
Tang Thirty-Six stood in the corner, looking at the pattern, and vaguely remembered that when he was a child, when the old man hugged himself on his lap and told the long story, he seemed to have said something about it...
Just what is that
In the end, all the calculations were over, and the disturbing sound of the beads hitting outside the house never sounded again, only the exhausted sighs of some accountants and the groans of sore arms, Tang Sanshiliu even watched Two accountants even fainted to death due to excessive mental exhaustion.
The second master of the Tang family walked to the stone wall again, looked at the pattern on the map, raised his eyebrows slightly, and reached out to take out something from his sleeve.
Countless rays of light were projected from that thing, falling on the map of Kyoto, and also turning into a pattern.
The two patterns are stacked back and forth, and it can be seen that the outline is roughly the same, but there are some differences in some subtleties, and the brightness is different.
"Has it changed much?" The second master of the Tang family asked.
Tang Thirty-Six was slightly taken aback, thinking that he had never seen these two patterns, how could he know the answer, and the change... what change did he mean
"It's been a thousand years, so the changes will naturally not be too small."
An old voice sounded in the shadow of the room, and an old man in a padded jacket appeared there.
Tang Thirty-Six looked at the old man and said in surprise, "Grand Priest, are you here too?"
The old man in a padded jacket nodded to him, walked to the second master of the Tang family, looked at the two patterns on the map that seemed to be combined, and said, "Fortunately, it can be resolved."
Tang Thirty-Six could no longer suppress the curiosity in his heart, walked over and asked, "What kind of picture is this?"
"Both are the imperial map of Kyoto. The one just calculated tonight is the current one, and the one that the second master just took out is from a thousand years ago."
Said the old priest from the Tang family in Wenshui.
The second master of the Tang family said: "The thousand-year changes in Kyoto are shown in these two pictures. This is history."
Hearing this, when Tang Thirty-Six looked at the pattern on the wall again, he naturally had many different feelings.
"Only our Tang family can see the changes in this period of history, because our Tang family exists in history, at least in the history of Kyoto, we are older than anyone else, even older than the Chen royal family, so we The Tang family has enough reasons to return to the capital, and you must know how to be in awe of this historical necessity."
The second master of the Tang family looked at him and said, "If you don't even understand this, how can you deserve the surname Tang?"
This sentence was to answer the question he asked Tang Thirty-Six at the very beginning - what should the Tang family be most in awe of
It's not the money that can pass through the gods, it's not the relationship with countless aristocratic families in the mainland, the mountain gates, the ministries and even the deep Xuelao City, but the incomparably long history of being the head of the four great aristocratic families.
Logically speaking, upon hearing these words, Tang Thirty-Six should have had some thoughts, but he was thinking about other things at this moment, and then thought of something, his face suddenly turned pale.
He remembered what the two patterns on the map were thousands of years apart.
Yes, that is Huang Yutu.
Just like the big priest said.
Few people in the world know the existence of Huang Tutu, but he heard about it on the lap of the old man when he was a child.
That is the biggest secret of the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it is also an extremely powerful dao formation!
What exactly does the Wenshui family want to do? He looked at the map of Kyoto on the wall, and there were countless turmoil in his heart, did he need to make such a big commotion tonight
The second master of the Tang family and the great priest were also looking at the map.
All the lines in the two imperial maps separated by thousands of years point to a certain place on the map.
It was at the place where the eyes of the three people in the room fell.
North of the center of the map of Kyoto, where is the Imperial Palace.
The second master of the Tang family said indifferently: "The Zhenshu is indeed there."
The great priest said with emotion: "The array hub is still there."
"After Taizu ascended the throne in front of Tianshu Mausoleum, he began to transform the imperial map. After that, Taizong and the first emperor did not stop."
The second master of the Tang family looked at the map of Kyoto and said, "The places that have been remodeled the most, except Jiangong Beili along the Luoqu line, are the hubs deep in the imperial palace."
The great priest looked at the bright light spot on the second imperial map and said: "Now it seems that those rumors back then are true. Taizong built Lingyan Pavilion to make the most important and most vulnerable formation pivot, and become the most dangerous Heavenly Killing Formation, specially targeting the powerhouses in the sacred domain."
The second master of the Tang family said: "Father said that if Emperor Taizong really cultivated the Heaven's Will Killing Formation, the powerhouses in the sacred domain would have to die if they wanted to break through."
The great priest looked at that place and was silent for a long time, then said, "I will try to see if I can sneak in."
Tang Thirty-Six was shocked again as he listened to this conversation from behind.
The realm of great offerings is unfathomable. It was only half a step away from the sacred realm many years ago. It is the last god master card of the Tang family in Wenshui except for the old man.
