Chapter 9 The Beginning of the Edge

Luo Yu groaned slightly for a moment, then ran to the old man's table to calculate the accounts seriously, at first Luo Yu really encountered some trouble, there are too many types of goods, strange, some goods are repeated many times, such as a certain kind of goods in the morning many purchases, calculated for a long time, only to find that this kind of goods in the afternoon was all distributed, then it was in vain, so it was very troublesome to calculate.

However, in an instant, Luo Yu calmed down, and thought of the "classification method" in the Nine Palaces Bureau, classifying the goods first and then calculating the total purchase minus the total shipment, so that the calculation was very fast, and the expression on Luo Yu's face gradually relaxed.

At this time, the old man who had been concentrating on reading the account book also nodded with relief after seeing the expression on Luo Yu's face, it seems that this kid doesn't say what the result of his calculation is! At least this serious attitude is not pretended.

In less than half an hour, Luo Yu was okay, and he respectfully handed the things he had calculated to the old man with a surprised face, Luo Yu was also secretly relieved at this time, he calculated that the result was not bad with the old man.

It's just that Luo Yu found that there should be one more person in and out of the number, and he should also count himself, I don't know if this is the place where the old man wants to test him.

And this old man was extremely shocked in his heart at this time, originally said that he would lift this kid in three hours, after all, he had never read a book, and he was too young, and he was naturally extremely skilled in managing accounts for so many years, and he didn't expect that this kid only took half an hour to calculate it, this speed was simply appalling! Could it be that he was deeply hidden?

"Old gentleman, is the kid wrong?" Luo Yu knew that he had scared the old man, and he couldn't help but arouse a trace of childish temperament.

"No... No, you actually thought of the number of people in and out, it can be seen that you are a thoughtful person, since you passed my assessment, then you go to the second floor to manage the birthday food sent by others, this is the warehouse key, remember to bring it. The old man was taken aback by Luo Yu's words, and only then did he realize his gaffe and hurriedly replied.

"The boy is going, old gentleman, take care. After speaking, Luo Yu saluted the old man, then took the key and walked upstairs, and at this time, the old man's eyes kept staring at Luo Yu's back until he disappeared from sight, and he looked at the white paper in his hand and couldn't help but be shocked: "There are people who can mentally calculate forty-five sets of data in one breath, this son is really extremely smart, and he will definitely not be in the pool in the future!" This really scared the old man, ordinary people can mentally calculate ten to fifteen sets of data is smart, can mentally calculate twenty to thirty sets of data is a generation of geniuses, and more than forty is rare, at least he has lived for most of his life, and has never seen this kind of person.

Besides, Luo Yu is still so young, Luo Yu doesn't know how much shock he gave the old man, at this time he has already arrived at the longevity warehouse, just looking back and forth curiously in the warehouse containing longevity food, which is full of some rare items, a bowl of bright red longevity peaches, colorful rare fruits, all kinds of exquisite food, dazzling, Luo Yu is dazzled by it, a burst of greed, but these things can only be seen and not touched, it is indeed very appetizing, if it is replaced by an ordinary child, it is estimated that he will be fascinated and does not know where he is, Luo Yu checked the list one by one, and found that there was no problem, so he sat aside and rested。

It didn't take long for there to be a knock on the door, Luo Yu thought it was the person who gave the birthday gift, but quickly opened the door and found that it was the old man on the first floor, holding a thick blue futon in his hand, standing outside the door with a smile, and when he saw Luo Yu coming out, he said: "You have to stay here tonight, it's cold at night, so I will send you a bed quilt, otherwise you will catch a cold, but you will make a mistake." There was a little concern in his voice, it seemed that he had seen Luo Yu's talent, and knew that Luo Yu's future was limitless, so he wanted to pull a relationship.

Luo Yu had already seen the warmth and coldness of the people in the house, and he didn't pay attention to these concerns, but he still respectfully led the old man into the house and sat down.

"The old man is too polite, if you have anything in the future, just look for a kid, you don't need to send anything. Luo Yu said with a smile.

"Hehe, I didn't expect you kid to be so polite, the old man actually wants you to help me sort out the accounts when you're okay in the future, and you can't bear to let the old man work so hard, I know that for you, even if these things don't take long, the old man won't let you work in vain, and will give you a little reward, how about it?" The white-haired and red-faced old man said softly.

"Of course there is no problem, as long as the old gentleman is in need, I will definitely help. Luo Yu said crisply, these accounts are really not difficult for him, and there is also a reward for nothing.

"Okay, then it's decided, it seems that the old man can relax a little bit in the future, I have one more thing to remind you, tomorrow when you receive gifts, you must pay attention not to receive those precious jewelry, and gold and silver tickets, etc., you must carefully check the gifts, the lord is the Ministry of Rites, even if it is a birthday, you must come up with a clean and honest image, can not leave the slightest handle, so you should pay special attention when receiving gifts, however, there is no need to worry too much, those gifts must be sent before the housekeepers are tested, and there will generally be no problems when they come to your hands。 The old man's expression was a little serious when he said this.

"I see, be sure to pay attention when you receive gifts. Luo Yu nodded and muttered, "Then the old man won't bother you, I'll go down and get busy first, you rest early, tomorrow is estimated to be very busy." After the old man finished speaking, he got up and walked out, Luo Yu hurriedly accompanied the old man, sent him out, and after returning to the house, he sat quietly on the small bed in the warehouse and thought, secretly reminding himself that he must pay attention to it tomorrow.

The next morning, Luo Yu got up early, cleaned the warehouse, and then moved a table and put it at the door, put a pen and paper, and sat there thinking about yesterday's Nine Palaces Innate Game, also known as the Chess Road "Luo Shu", every time he deduced it, he deepened his understanding of this chess game, and felt that his understanding of the Nine Palaces Bureau was still very shallow, and he felt that the nine palace gossip seemed to contain something, but he couldn't see anything.

However, Luo Yu will not be entangled in this problem if he can't figure it out, and instead use the nine-palace diagram to deduce the "Longzhong Pair" chess game given to him by the madman, the current Longzhong chess game is no longer so complicated for Luo Yu, and he can roughly sort out the clue, only a few of the changes can be determined by repeated scrutiny, and gradually, Luo Yu was immersed in the chess game and gradually forgot the time.

I don't know how long it took, there were bursts of cheers and squeaks of carrying goods outside, Luo Yu looked out of the window under curiosity, and was instantly shocked by the scene outside, at this time it was not yet time for the warehouse to open, the outside was already full of people and piles of goods, all kinds of things, some even sent some rare animals, those animals were not restless jumping around, stirring up the already messy square for a while, but I have to say that this is also a lively scene, Luo Yu can clearly find that those gifts are more precious from top to bottom, the more they stand forward, and the gifts are almost in turn, Almost all people respect this kind of dark rule, after all, the grade of gift-giving can also be secretly compared with the level of status.

At this time, Luo Yu saw the door below slowly open, and the old gentleman from yesterday walked out slowly, followed by several guards, with a very serious expression, the old man wore an emerald green hairpin on his head, dressed in a white thick robe, walked to the center of the door with a serious face, cleared his throat, and said loudly: " Today is my father's fiftieth birthday, everyone is willing to come to my father's birthday, I first express my gratitude to you on behalf of Luofu, everyone's heart Luofu received, after counting the gifts, the old man will send each person a red envelope to express his gratitude, and now I will start to hand over the gift list and gifts to the guards beside me, and they will check them one by one. After speaking, there were some brightly dressed maids who walked out neatly from behind with plates of fruit and pastries, and the people who gave gifts didn't seem to have seen so many beautiful women, their eyes widened, and they could even hear some sound of swallowing saliva, and the old man sitting on the high platform seemed to enjoy the feeling of being in a high position, his eyes swept around, and he held a piece of pastry that the maid had just sent in his hand, and ate it carefully.
