When Shen Du woke up, someone was holding his hand and putting fingerprints on a confession.
The confession reads: Chishui County warehouse official Shen Du stole and sold three thousand shi of grain from a charity warehouse and was beheaded.
In the thirteenth year of Tianbao, the twelfth lunar month. He became a scapegoat.
In his previous life, he worked as an auditor for twelve years. When he opens his eyes in this life, there is something more in him - as long as he checks an account from beginning to end with his own hands and sees the things in the account with his own eyes, a number will appear in his mind:
How much difference.
It doesn't tell him who did it or why. It only tells him how much difference it has.
So he checked the account that cost him his life in front of a full hall, and then said:
"You have arrested the wrong person. It's not that we are short of three thousand stones."
"This account contains 8,200 dan, and not one dan is correct."
Later, he checked the county's accounts, the road's accounts, the water transportation accounts, and all the way to the world's accounts.
He found that each one was slightly different.
If you save it year by year, that "little bit" is enough to support a non-existent army, enough to sustain a war for eighteen months.
It's enough to make eight million people disappear from the household registration register.
