"In such a short period of time, he has been able to calculate several months' worth of accounts by himself, and his calculations are more accurate than those calculated by Hari Sumaishi?"
"Peng Yushi, you are not mistaken, are you?"
"Yes, although Young Master's calculation tool is a bit weird, it is incredible!"
All the censors present refused to believe this fact.
As censors, they not only supervise the officials, but also learn all kinds of knowledge, and many of them are proficient in arithmetic.
As a result, they never expected that Zhao Hao could be finished in such a short time.
This huge sense of gap is impossible for anyone to accept.
What's more, Han Sheng accepted this arithmetic competition.
Han Sheng was seen standing blankly in his seat, looking at a loss.
It was obvious that Zhao Hao's blow to him was not ordinary.
Although he had great respect for Zhao Hao before meeting him, and even before the competition started, he felt that he would lose.
However, he never thought that he would lose so completely and so quickly.
"Fellow censors, the master's newly calculated account books are here. If you have any questions, you can do the calculations yourself and check again!"
Seeing that the censors looked in disbelief, Xiao He immediately raised his hands to signal to them.
When the censors heard this, they looked at each other and couldn't help but look at each other.
However, some people still held on to the last glimmer of hope and stepped forward to check Zhao Hao's new accounting book.
The results speak for themselves.
The data calculated by Zhao Hao are exactly the same as the standard answer.
"What do you think, Doctor Censor? Is Gongzi Hao's arithmetic more impressive to you than this Han Sheng and the other Censors present?"
Xiao He's faint voice sounded again, making all the censors present at Feng Jie feel bitter in their hearts.
"Master Censor, you are a young man who has overestimated your abilities. Your master's attainments in arithmetic are far superior to those of a young man. I would like to apologize for your overestimation of your abilities!"
When Han Sheng heard Xiao He's words, he was the first to stand up and hand over to Feng Jie.
"This matter has nothing to do with you. If you are the one who deserves an apology, it should be me, the imperial censor, who should apologize!"
Feng Jie waved his hand, then turned to face Zhao Hao and saluted.
When Zhao Hao saw this, he interrupted Feng Jie with a smile: "You're welcome, Doctor Censor, I only know a few things. When it comes to other aspects, I'm not as good as you!"
"Young Master Gaode!"
Even the immediate superiors were subdued. The other censors didn't dare to say anything, so they all stepped forward to salute.
"Since I have just agreed to the young master, if you have any arrangements, I have the right to assist you!"
Feng Jie is also a cheerful person. He agreed to Zhao Hao's matter and naturally he would not shirk it.
But Zhao Hao laughed and said: "Since the imperial censor is so cheerful, I will tell you directly. I ask all the censors to treat you well in the future affairs of the Bureau of Commerce!"
Seeing that no one was questioning his calculations anymore, he simply threw out his purpose.
After hearing this, all the censors looked at Feng Jie.
Feng Jie smiled bitterly, and then reluctantly handed over his hand: "I will do business later and let the Commerce Bureau play its role!"
By saying this, he was actually acknowledging the Bureau of Commerce in disguise.
In this way, as long as they report the matter to Ying Zheng and get Ying Zheng's approval, the normal process of establishing the Commerce Bureau will be completed.
And Xiao He will also become the first director of the Commerce Bureau of Daqin.
After Xiao He's matter was settled, Zhao Hao turned his attention to Han Sheng again and said, "Han Sheng, where are you working now?"
"this"
Han Sheng hesitated for a moment, turned to look at Feng Jie, then looked at Zhao Hao, cupped his hands and said: "Back to you, sir, I have nothing to do now."
"Nothing to do?"
Zhao Hao frowned: "Didn't you pass the official examination? How come you have nothing to do? The old prime minister and Gongyang Pushe didn't make any arrangements for you?"
"Sir, it's up to me to explain this to you!"
Seeing the embarrassment on Han Sheng's face, Feng Jie stood up again: "Some time ago, His Majesty sent a decree that a new government office would be established, named Nan Shufang, mainly to recruit talents who have been assessed to become officials;
Therefore, the old prime minister and I discussed that the talents who have been assessed for official service should be idle in Xianyang until His Majesty comes back, so as not to be unable to transfer them at will after we have arranged them! "
"How can this be done?"
Zhao Hao's face suddenly darkened when he heard Feng Jie's words: "I propose to assess the national policy of becoming an official because I want to recruit talents from all over the world for the Qin Dynasty. If you leave the talents I recruited idle in Xianyang, what will they think? Will the imperial court be here? Tease them!"
"But, where is Your Majesty?"
"When my father mentioned the establishment of a new yamen, he did not mean that he would definitely recruit people who passed the examination to become officials, but that he would consider and investigate from all aspects to determine the final candidates!"
"So, it is obviously unrealistic for you to wait for my father to come back to make arrangements. I think it is better to arrange them out first to avoid being criticized!"
"this"
Feng Jie hesitated for a moment, and then said with some uncertainty: "Young master, what you mean is that these people who have been tested for official positions will be arranged to enter official careers first?"
"The purpose of the assessment is to become an official, so we must arrange for an official career!"
Zhao Hao replied somewhat funny.
He remembered that there was a plot in Journey to the West, which was like this.
First, the daring Sun Wukong was taken to heaven, and then he was assigned the position of Bima Wen.
As a result, Sun Wu was so breathless that he almost poked a hole in the sky.
Zhao Hao didn't want these officials who were admitted to the officialdom to make Da Qin a mess.
Therefore, he decided to train some officials before Ying Zheng came back.
Seeing that Feng Jie stopped talking, Zhao Hao turned his attention to Han Sheng again and said, "Han Sheng, who did you learn your arithmetic from?"
"Back to the young master, I learned this from Mr. Zhang!"
Zhang Cang?
Zhao Hao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.
He usually has a very good relationship with Zhang Cang. He often arranges for Zhang Cang to do various things, but he almost forgets Zhang Cang's true ability.
You know, Zhang Cang was a famous calendarer and mathematician in the pre-Qin era.
The "Nine Chapters on Arithmetic" that he assisted and corrected was a major contribution to the development of mathematics in China and the world.
These algorithms are more than 1,500 years earlier than similar algorithms in Europe, and have had an important impact on the development of world mathematics.
"Nine Chapters on Arithmetic" is a mathematical work written by Zhang Cang and Geng Shouchang.
The content is very rich, and the whole book summarizes the mathematical achievements in the Warring States, Qin, and Han periods.
At the same time, "Nine Chapters on Arithmetic" also has its own unique achievements in mathematics.
Not only was it the first to mention the issue of fractions, it was also the first to record issues such as surplus and deficiency. The "Equations" chapter also explained negative numbers and their addition and subtraction rules for the first time in the history of world mathematics.
It is a comprehensive historical work and the most concise and effective applied mathematics in the world at that time. Its appearance marks the formation of a complete system of ancient Chinese mathematics.
In short, Zhang Cang is a very talented person in terms of literature, calendar and mathematics.
For Zhao Hao, what is most lacking in this era is not skilled craftsmen, but mathematical talents.
Yes, as a time traveler, Zhao Hao knows the importance of mathematics too well.
Without mathematics, to put it simply, you just don’t know how to calculate accounts, which will definitely have many disadvantages in life.
But what about the bigger picture?
Without mathematics, it is difficult for a country to make a qualitative leap.
Because mathematics is the cornerstone of scientific progress, the stepping stone for physics and chemistry, and the key to penetrating any discipline.
Zhao Hao was a top student in his previous life, so he naturally knew the importance of mathematics.
Mr. Hua Luogeng once said that no matter how big the universe is, how small the particles are, the speed of rockets, the changes in the earth, the mysteries of living things, and the complexity of daily life, mathematics is inseparable from everything.
In short, daily life, economics, science, humanities... even particles are all inseparable from mathematics.
Only when the knowledge of mathematics is rapidly developed and popularized can this society truly progress and enable human civilization to move towards the door of science!
It is precisely because of this that Zhao Hao blames himself for almost forgetting Zhang Cang's true ability.
I saw him calm down a little, and then continued: "How long have you been studying arithmetic with Zhang Shaofu?"
"Back to the young master, I have been studying for a month now, and I have only learned a little bit, which is really embarrassing!"
Han Sheng smiled bitterly and cupped his hands.
Thinking that Zhao Hao had calculated the account book in the blink of an eye, he still felt a bit like a dream.
How could anyone in the world calculate so quickly?
This is simply not human!
Zhao Hao smiled and said: "Mr. Han, don't be too modest. If Mr. Han is very interested in arithmetic, call Mr. Zhang in the future and let's discuss it together!"
"Oh? Master, are you really willing to discuss arithmetic with me?"
Han Sheng was taken aback and became excited.
Before learning arithmetic from Zhang Cang, he didn't like arithmetic very much, but he liked some Confucian classics and anecdotes.
However, ever since he came into contact with arithmetic, he has become obsessed with it.
For example, right now, he wanted to know what calculation method Zhao Hao used to calculate that account book so quickly and efficiently.
Zhao Hao nodded: "I also like arithmetic, but I have a lot of things going on right now and I don't have time to discuss it with you. But there is something I need Mr. Han's help with!"
"Young master, whatever your orders are, it doesn't matter!"
Han Sheng raised his hands and said.
Zhao Hao smiled and glanced at Feng Jie, who frowned and turned to look at the censors behind him.
The censors looked at each other with helpless expressions, and finally withdrew from the main hall.
When only Zhao Hao, Xiao He, Feng Jie, and Han Sheng were left in the hall, Zhao Hao said seriously: "I plan to set up a tax bureau after a while to be responsible for commercial taxes. I wonder if sir, would you like to take charge of the tax bureau temporarily? "
If this person can win Zhang Cang's respect, he must be capable.
Worried about the current shortage of people, Zhao Hao wanted to try this diamond to see if he could get a porcelain job.
If not, then make a decisive substitution.
If you can, then make him a regular employee.
When Han Sheng heard this, he was immediately stunned. He obviously didn't expect that Zhao Hao would value him so highly. He couldn't help but said excitedly, "Master Xie, it's just that I don't know much about taxation, I'm afraid."
"Mr. Han, the young master values you and tests you. I also don't know much about business. The young master also asked me to serve as the director of the Commerce Bureau. To be honest, this is actually a rare opportunity. As long as you work hard, you can't do it badly. !”
Before Zhao Hao could speak, Xiao He, who was sitting next to Zhao Hao, took the lead in interrupting Han Sheng's words.
Han Sheng was stunned and turned to look at Feng Jie.
Feng Jie frowned slightly, showing neither approval nor objection.
After all, he had promised Zhao Hao before to fully assist Zhao Hao.
Therefore, having one more tax bureau means nothing to him.
Anyway, it was ultimately up to the First Emperor to give his approval.
Without the approval of the First Emperor, even if he promised Zhao Hao a hundred new yamen, it would be of no avail.
Seeing that Han Sheng was still hesitant, Zhao Hao thought for a while and said, "If you don't want to shoulder the heavy responsibility, I won't force you to do it. I promise you to discuss arithmetic together. If I have a chance, I'll find you again!"
After saying that, he immediately stood up from his seat and prepared to leave the main hall.
"Sir, wait a minute, I'm willing to shoulder the heavy responsibility!"
Han Sheng burst into tears of gratitude and bowed deeply.
Zhao Hao and Xiao He looked at each other and couldn't help but smile knowingly.
At this moment, Zhao Hao suddenly remembered something again.
This Han Sheng seemed to have appeared in his history and Chinese textbooks in his previous life. '
If Zhao Hao remembers correctly, it should be a walk-on role.
The story seems to be that at the end of the Qin Dynasty, Xiang Yu entered the Pass, burned Xianyang, massacred the people of Xianyang, and plundered the property in the Pass, preparing to return to Chu.
A gentleman from Guanzhong kindly persuaded him not to do this and to stay in Guanzhong and strive for world hegemony.
Xiang Yu sneered at this and said that if you don't return wealth and honor to your hometown, you will be like walking in brocade at night.
As a result, the Guan sergeant cursed Xiang Yu, saying that he was a fool and that the people of Chu were just a bunch of monkeys wearing hats and had no brains at all.
Xiang Yu naturally couldn't listen to such words, so he threw the scholar directly into the pot and stewed him.
And this Guan Zhongshizi is Han Sheng.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hao couldn't help but smacked his lips and muttered: "So you are the unlucky guy who was boiled!"
"Um?"
Han Sheng was stunned: "What do you mean, Master?"
"Oh oh oh, nothing, nothing."
Zhao Hao reacted, waved his hands quickly, then suppressed the embarrassment in his heart, and said nonsense seriously: "What I mean is that working in the tax bureau will be like dire straits in the future. Be careful not to get boiled!"
"Don't worry, young master, Xiaosheng is not afraid of any difficulties and dangers!"
Han Sheng said seriously.
Although he appears to be a Confucian scholar, he is actually a mad student.
It is also the most typical taxi of this era.
A scholar dies for a confidant.
Confidants, for scholars, are the most important people in life.
When Zhong Ziqi died, Boya cut off the strings of his harp and never played the drum again for the rest of his life.
One peach kills three people.
He also has the consciousness that in order to protect his confidant, he would rather send the whole family into the tiger's mouth.
Although the culture of scholars contains some deformities and bloodshed, it is also full of a kind of morbid romance.
Han Sheng gained a special honor from Zhao Hao's respect.
In his eyes, Zhao Hao valued himself because he valued his abilities and character. Zhao Hao is willing to discuss arithmetic with himself, just to be honest with him.
From now on, he is Zhao Hao's person and Zhao Hao's face.
To be precise, in Shi's eyes, as long as they meet their soulmate, their lives will be tied together and cannot be separated.
Looking at Han Sheng's eyes looking back at him before leaving, Xiao He always felt something weird that he couldn't explain.
It was as if she and he were serving the same husband.
But
I was obviously the one who came first? !
