This news may not be a big deal, but it reflects a lot of problems. Wherever King Bohai goes, it seems that all parties are surrendered. However, in many places now, it has not really penetrated, and naturally it will not bring everyone's support.

At this point, Liu Qing strengthened his determination to divide Xuzhou and Yanzhou into Liu Bei and Cao Cao.

"Lord, there is a woman outside the door who wants to see you." Dian Wei said suddenly.

Woman? Liu Qing knew it was Mi Ren without even thinking about it. He just marveled slightly. Is someone from a merchant family really so purposeful?

Can't stand it all night?

"What's the matter?" Liu Qing asked Dian Wei inexplicably, but found that it was a bit unnecessary, so he said again: "Please come in, Miss Mi!"

"Close the door!"

"Don't eavesdrop!"

Liu Qing explained three sentences in a row.

After a while, Dian Wei ushered the people in and then left without saying a word.

Liu Qing followed the weak firelight and looked at the person in front of him. Her long hair was combed up, with two bangs on her forehead. She looked simple and capable, with a handsome face, bright almond eyes, petite red lips, and a blue outfit that looked fresh.

Keren was holding a silk book in her hand, and the dim light added a different charm to her.

"Miss Mi, why are you looking for me?" Liu Qing was the first to speak.

"I, Mi Ren, have met the king!" Mi Ren did not answer, but added a courtesy first, then took a few steps forward and said, "I heard from my brother that I can live here, thanks to the arrangement of the king!"

Liu Qing thought there was no problem, and was about to say, "It's okay, it's just a matter of a finger."

Unexpectedly, Mi Fang continued: "I heard from my brother that the king is good at business and must be good at actuarial calculations. It just so happens that I have accounts on hand and the amount is too huge, so I want to ask the king for advice."

Reading with rice balls

A question mark slowly popped up in Liu Qing's mind.

What kind of routine is this? I have seen people learning foreign languages. Is this learning arithmetic?

Liu Qing refused many times and said: "Show me the king!"

Saying that, Mi Fang took a few steps forward again, leaned down and handed it over.

Liu Qing raised his head and saw that the firelight was directly printed on Mi Ren's face, making the delicate and smooth skin blush, which was endearing.

When he opened the silk book, he saw that it was filled with dense numbers. Liu Qing was used to the style of briefings with only a few words, and he was really not used to it.

"Millet, fifty-seven thousand two hundred and one stone and five stones. On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Zhang Liao's army withdrew 450 shi, Zhao Yun's army withdrew 500 shi, and the remainder: 56,265 shi...

…”

This is... Mi Zhu's account of supplying grain and grass to Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun!

This is a serious account, and Mi Ren is also asking for advice. For a moment, Liu Qing fell into deep thought, trying to figure out what Mi Zhu meant by this move.

"Your Majesty, I usually help my brother review the accounts at home, but the amount of the accounts my brother sent me today is too huge, and I can't calculate it at the moment, so..." Mi Ren's voice gradually trailed off.

Liu Qing put aside other thoughts for the time being. Since it was a serious question, he should teach it seriously. After all, this string of Chinese characters and numbers immediately gave Liu Qing a headache.

When he was doing business in Jizhou, because his business was not big, Liu Qing followed the locals and followed the locals. He has always used this method. After the Yellow Turbans and Xun or joined, all these matters were handed over to Xun or. Liu Qing never worried about it, even though he was famous.

He nominally had over 100 million yuan in money and over a million dan in food, but Liu Qing had been fighting everywhere and never thought about this problem.

I was asked so directly by Mi Ren today, and I immediately thought of this problem. When it is used for registration, Chinese character numbers are not a problem, but when they can be used for calculation, it will be a headache. So, at this time, a new counting method should be introduced.

Of course, Liu Qing has it ready in his mind!

"The numbers are too large to handle. I do have a simple algorithm here. I will demonstrate it to you first!"

With that said, Liu Qing took out a piece of white silk book and started copying it.

"Millet, 57,215 shi, on the eighth day of the first lunar month, Zhang Liao's army withdrew 450 shi, Zhao Yun's army withdrew 500 shi, and the remainder: 56,265 shi..."

Mi Ren was very curious when he saw Liu Qing copying quickly, and also quickly calculating and attaching the corresponding numbers later. Those strange symbols looked unfamiliar, but seemed to have some kind of pattern.

She soon discovered that these corresponded to the numbers one to nine!

Liu Qing quickly wrote down the Five Elements. Now Liu Qing has 76 points of intelligence, his arithmetic ability far exceeds that of his previous life, and he can basically do mental arithmetic.

"All five elements are correct!" Liu Qing said.

Mi Ren's eyes lit up, as if he had opened the door to a new world, and he looked at Liu Qing in surprise.

"Your Majesty, what is this symbol that represents numbers called?"
