early morning.
Su Jing stretched out and got up. As soon as he went out, he found Zhu Biao already waiting for him at the door.
"Master Su, students have finished reading."
Zhu Biao said very seriously. Although he spoke with great energy, he could tell from his face that he had not rested well.
With so many ledgers, it is no small task to read them all.
"I asked you to read it, but I didn't ask you to read it all night. Go and rest first, and we'll talk about it later if you have anything else to do."
Su Jing said to Zhu Biao: "No matter what the situation, your body comes first."
However, this time, Zhu Biao did not listen to Su Jing's words.
He looked at Su Jing and said: "Master Su, after reading all the accounts, the student found that Liu's Rice Shop had an extra few thousand kilograms of rice out of thin air."
This is not a small number.
One stone of rice is roughly equivalent to about 200 kilograms in modern times, which is slightly less, but not much less.
These thousands of stone meters are at least hundreds of thousands of kilograms of rice.
Zhu Biao is not a fool. No matter how much management belongs to Mihang, such misaccounts will never happen.
It can only be said that these thousands of stone meters were not recorded in the incoming and outgoing accounts.
But in Ping An Rice Store, there is a record of Liu's Rice Store's delivery, because most of the rice purchased by Ping An Rice Store comes from Liu's Rice Store.
Comparing the two, it is not difficult to find the fishiness in them.
"Well, it seems that you looked very carefully, and the result is similar to what I guessed."
Su Jing nodded.
Regarding the floods in Zhejiang, although we were in Lishui County, the distance was far away, and the spread of information was not so fast in the Ming Dynasty.
But after so many days, news of the flood still came through.
At the same time, news of the court's disaster relief also came.
When Su Jing heard the news about floods in Zhejiang, she had already thought of what was happening now.
That's why he uses his own special means.
Otherwise, Su Jing has never thought about abnormal business competition.
It's not that he can't beat the opponent, he just wants to verify whether his suspicion is true.
"Master Su, you mean that you already knew that Liu's Rice Shop has so much grain inventory?"
Zhu Biao asked with dark circles under his eyes. His current mood was very bad.
Because he also guessed some possibilities, but Zhu Biao was not willing to believe it in his heart.
In other words, he thought there must be some unknown reason for this kind of thing.
Su Jing shook her head and said: "That's not true. It's just that Liu Zhaoxiang of Liu's Rice Shop has always wanted to annex me. Naturally, I also conducted a business investigation on him."
"The amount of grain used by Liu's Rice Bank in this sell-off obviously exceeded my survey data, so I became suspicious."
"As for these new food sources, you have to ask Liu Zhaoxiang."
Even before there were accounts, Su Jing had roughly estimated Liu's rice store's grain inventory.
This time, the other party sold too much food.
It's no wonder that Liu Zhaoxiang is so confident, but it's a pity that his understanding of Su Jing is too little.
Listening to Su Jing's words, Zhu Biao said excitedly: "Then Master Su, where do you think the grains from Liu's Rice Shop come from?"
Su Jing looked at the tired and excited Zhu Biao in front of her and said directly: "Niu Yi, go back to sleep immediately. When you wake up, I will tell you. Otherwise, don't get any more information from my mouth!"
The way this young man stayed up late but was excited, it was a rhythm that could easily lead to sudden death.
Su Jing didn't want anything to happen to his precious apprentice, so he was quite strong at this moment.
"Okay, Master Su, students will go to rest now."
Zhu Biao nodded and did not continue to fight Su Jing. He understood that Su Jing was doing it for his own good.
After saying that, Zhu Biao returned to his bedroom.
Su Jing breathed a sigh of relief. After breakfast, she began to teach Zhu Ju again.
"How about it, have you figured it out?"
Su Jing asked Zhu Rui.
Zhu Zhu nodded and said, "The student has figured it out."
"oh."
Su Jing was slightly stunned and said with some surprise: "Tell me, why if you change the door, you will have a greater chance of selecting the gold ingot."
These three questions may seem simple, but in fact they require very logical thinking to understand.
Zhu Rui said: "The student thinks like this. Distinguish the two iron ingots. One is an iron ingot and the other is a copper ingot. In this way, the three doors correspond to gold ingots, copper ingots and iron ingots."
"Then there are three situations. The first one is that I choose the door where the iron ingot is, Master Su opens the door where the copper ingot is, and I change the door to the gold ingot."
"In the second option, I chose the door where the copper ingot is. Master Su opened the door where the iron ingot is. When I changed the door, I also chose the gold ingot."
"The third way is that I choose the door where the gold ingot is, and Master Su opens any door where the iron ingot or copper ingot is. If I change the door, I won't be able to choose the gold ingot."
After Zhu Rui finished speaking, Su Jing immediately said: "Then didn't you realize that your third situation is actually divided into two situations? If you choose the door where the gold ingot is, it is possible that I will be there between the copper ingot and the iron The two doors are randomly selected, these are two situations."
Zhu Zhu nodded and said: "Master Su is right. This is exactly what I couldn't figure out before, but now I understand."
"First of all, I choose the door where the gold ingot is located at the beginning, and the probability is one-third. Then Master Su chooses the door where the copper ingot or the iron ingot is located, which is one-half each, so the overall probability is 1/3. *1/2+1/3*1/2, the final possibility is still one-third.”
Bang bang bang bang bang!
Su Jing applauded on the spot, and Zhu Xi's answer really surprised him.
This wave of probability analysis is quite perfect!
"Yes, you really figured it out!"
Su Jing praised: "Niu Su, I really think you might be able to go further in mathematics."
Originally, Su Jing wanted to train Zhu Rui to become Mendel of the Ming Dynasty. Now that he has learned mathematics, Zhu Rui has shown a talent that is beyond Su Jing's imagination.
Isn’t it a waste of such thinking ability to study botany?
"Master Su is so complimentary. The students are just learning according to Master Su's teachings. The students are more interested in botany, especially heredity."
Zhu Rui replied.
"Pity."
Su Jing shook her head slightly and said, "I'm not forcing anything. I'll teach you whatever you like. When it's almost done, we'll start studying genetics."
Scientific research still depends on personal interests.
Su Jing can only guide, and the final decision must be made by Zhu Ru himself.
"Mr. Su, what's the pity?"
At this time, Queen Ma's voice sounded and she appeared at the gate.
"Mother!"
When Zhu Zhu heard Queen Ma's voice, he immediately shouted excitedly.
"lady."
Su Jing was a little surprised when she saw Queen Ma's appearance, and immediately said: "Madam, please come in quickly."
Empress Ma walked in slowly and said with a smile, "I took the liberty of visiting without notice. I'm really sorry."
Su Jing immediately said: "Madam, Niu Yi and Niu Su are both your sons. It is only natural for mothers to come and see their sons."
Although Su Jing was a little surprised by Queen Ma's arrival, there was nothing too strange about it.
Zhu Biao and Zhu Rui have been here for a long time. Parents should come and take a look.
"Su'er, have you followed Mr. Su's instructions well?"
Queen Ma walked up to Zhu Rui and asked.
Zhu Tie immediately replied: "Mother, my child has been studying seriously from Mr. Su and I don't dare to slack off at all."
Empress Ma nodded and said to Su Jing: "Su'er is still young. Mr. Su has taken great care of her. I'd like to thank you here."
Su Jing immediately said: "Madam, what did you say? Niu Su's talent is rare in my life. I am lucky to be able to teach him."
Queen Ma was also quite surprised to hear Su Jing's high opinion of Zhu Rui.
She didn't expect that her fifth son would be so valued by Su Jing.
Zhu Ju was also quite happy at the moment. It was a very happy thing to be recognized by Su Jing.
"Where's Niu Yi?"
Queen Ma asked Su Jing.
Su Jing replied: "I asked him to study last night, but I didn't expect him to study too late. I will let him rest now."
"I see, this is really troublesome for Mr. Su."
After hearing this, Queen Ma immediately bowed slightly towards Su Jing.
Queen Ma did not have any suspicion about Zhu Biao staying up late.
If Lao Zhu were here, he would definitely quarrel with Su Jing.
As a teacher, how can we let students not have a good rest?
Queen Ma said: "Mr. Su, I came here this time. Firstly, the weather has turned cold, so I brought some clothes for my two sons. Secondly, I wanted to thank Mr. Su for accepting me, Su'er, as his student. I would like to express my special thanks. There is also a cloak for Mr. Su."
As he said that, several servants came in and brought in the things Queen Ma had brought in one by one.
Queen Ma opened a package and took out the cloak inside.
A cloak that was black but washed out white, and had some patches.
"This cloak is not a valuable thing, but it is very warm. Although there are some patches, it does not affect its use. Please don't mind, Mr. Su, and you must accept it."
Queen Ma handed the cloak towards Su Jing with both hands.
"Madam, you are serious. How can I mind if Madam gives you a gift?"
Su Jing took the cloak with both hands.
Although he was a little surprised as to why the other party wanted to send such a cloak, he would not reject it just because it was plain and patched.
With Zhu Biao's family background, the other party would not be able to use such a cloak to insult him.
Maybe it has some special meaning.
"That's good. With Mr. Su's words, I feel relieved."
Empress Ma was very happy that Su Jing didn't mind, even if it was said that Zhu Yuanzhang had worn this cloak, there would be many begging for it.
But Su Jing is so unclear, but can still accept it solemnly, which especially shows that Su Jing is different from ordinary people.
Queen Ma took out the sweet-scented osmanthus cake that she brought to Zhu Zhu, which made Zhu Zhu happy for a while.
Su Jing chatted with Queen Ma.
The content of Queen Ma's speech is basically inseparable from Zhu Biao and Zhu Ji.
From Su Jing's mouth, she learned more clearly about Zhu Biao and Zhu Ru's situation here.
Time passed by slowly.
Near noon, Zhu Biao finally woke up.
After a morning's rest, his energy and energy were obviously much better.
When he was about to come out to ask Su Jing about Liu's rice shop, he was surprised to find that his mother, Queen Ma, had actually come.
"Mother, why are you here?"
Zhu Biao came to Queen Ma.
Queen Ma looked at Zhu Biao carefully and said, "Let me see you."
After confirming that Zhu Biao was really doing well, Queen Ma was completely relieved.
"You mother and son, let's talk first, I won't interrupt."
Su Jing is also very knowledgeable. Mother and son haven't seen each other for a long time, so it's not good for them to listen on their own.
"Thank you Mr. Su."
Queen Ma bowed slightly towards Su Jing to express her gratitude.
Su Jing nodded in response, and then left temporarily.
"Mother, everything is fine recently."
Zhu Biao asked Queen Ma.
Empress Ma touched Zhu Biao's head: "It's not a big deal, your father has always dealt with it, but your father still asked me to tell you the specific matter."
Then, Queen Ma briefly told Zhu Biao the recent political affairs of the Ming Dynasty.
"Mother, are you telling me that the imperial court allocated grain to Zhejiang for disaster relief, but a grain transport ship capsized? Nearly thousands of kilograms of grain were lost?"
Zhu Biao asked immediately when he heard Queen Ma mention the floods in Zhejiang.
Queen Ma nodded and said, "Yes, your father is worried about this matter a lot, and he has to allocate food again."
Thousands of stones of food!
Allocate food again!
Liu’s rice shop!
Liu Zhaoxiang!
Everything emerged in Zhu Biao's mind.
He was a little confused. From Queen Ma's mouth, he got the answer he wanted.
To be precise, it should be the answer he least wants.
"Biao'er, what's wrong with you?"
Queen Ma noticed something was wrong with Zhu Biao and asked hurriedly.
Zhu Biao was silent for a while and then said: "Mother, the capsizing of the grain transport ship may not be true, but someone is hiding the truth and embezzling the disaster relief grain."
Zhu Biao did not hide anything about his mother, Queen Ma.
"What? Biao'er, are you sure?"
Queen Ma's expression changed immediately. She knew the seriousness of this matter very well.
Zhu Biao replied: "Haier is more than 90% sure, and he also knows the whereabouts of these disaster relief grains."
After hearing this answer, Queen Ma knew that this was not a mistake.
"I'll go back right away and notify your father. Do you need me to do anything for you?"
Queen Ma asked.
Since the matter of disaster relief food is involved, it is Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao's turn to handle it.
Only the emperor and the prince can handle such a big matter.
"Mother, after you tell your father, tell him not to rush into the investigation first. There are clues on the child's side. We will deal with it after the matter is found out!"
Zhu Biao immediately said to Queen Ma.
Since the disaster relief food comes from Liu's Rice Store, Liu's Rice Store must be closely related to the embezzlement of the disaster relief food.
Zhu Biao remembered what Liu Zhaoxiang had said, and he would probably do it again.
At this time, it is not appropriate to alert the enemy, only to grasp the current situation is the real thing.
Zhu Biao will catch all the bugs on this line!
"okay, I get it."
Queen Ma did not ask too many details. He believed that Zhu Biao had the ability to handle it well.
No matter what happens, Su Jing is here, so you don't have to worry too much.
The best choice is to fully assist your son.
