Second Chance Chapter 168

Zhu Pingan swept a glance at the crowd’s reactions and slightly tickled the corner of his lips, “Actually, my method is very simple, it’s similar to cracking an egg just now.”

After the cooked egg incident just now, these accountants however did not dare to underestimate Zhu Pingan anymore, but they did not quite believe that there would be a method in the world that would be so simple to detect false accounts.

Looking at the many accountants who were talking to each other, Zhu Pingan slightly hooked his lips, “I know that all of you don’t believe it, if it were me, I wouldn’t believe it either. However, there is no such absolute thing in the world, this method is also something I got by chance from a senior high ranking person named Benjamin Ford when I was participating in the courtyard examination in Yingtian.”

Speaking of this, Zhu Pingan paused, slightly embarrassed, “In fact, I also spent a lot of cost, so it, I can make this method public to you seniors, but you seniors are the prima donna of the account session, the family is not my poor boy in the mountain village can be comparable to, I think you seniors will not let me return empty-handed. Although it would be vulgar to talk about money, but the accountant accountant, checking accounts and checking accounts, how can I avoid it.”

“Of course, it must be after the method is verified.” Zhu Pingan added faintly.

In fact, there was no such idea in the first place, only who let these ledgers treat themselves just now in a way that made them a little upset.

Besides, what’s wrong with exchanging intellectual property rights for some returns. My brother is going to get married, and I have to take the examination in the future, so why not help my parents to reduce their burden. In addition, I will Benford’s law that should only appear in the 20th century was the first to be put forward in more than 400 years ago in the Ming Dynasty, is also considered to be a contribution to China’s mathematical. It is not clear whether this Benford’s law will be called the law of peace in the future, heh heh, if the crooked people in the twentieth century found out that far away in more than four hundred years ago when China put forward this law, how will be the reaction, will be very interesting is it.

“If your method really works, what’s the harm.” The sideburned tentmaker stroked his beard and said languidly, still sceptical in his eyes.

“It is. It’s not like we’re cheap little people.”

“Tell me first, I don’t believe there could be such an easy way.”

The rest of the tents reacted differently, but they were all intensely sceptical.

Zhu Pingan shook his head with a simple smile, then spoke faintly. “This method is very simple, in fact, you only need to take the ledger into your hands and look at the numbers that appear in the ledger. From a bunch of data derived from real life, the number of times the number with one as the first digit appears is about thirty per cent of the total number of all digits, and the further back the digits appear at the beginning the fewer times they appear. Six, seven, eight, and nine together all appear less than twenty per cent of the time, and whenever the discrepancy is too great, it must be a false account.”

The accountants laughed when they heard Zhu Pingan’s method, how could it be possible, what kind of joke is this, it’s completely treating the account book as a child’s play.

The accountants who were still full of expectations were disappointed.

“That number starts, shouldn’t it be the same, who stipulates that 1 has to appear as 30%. Nonsense.”

The accountants spat differently.

However, this situation was completely expected by Zhu Pingan.

“That’s right, I had the same reaction at first, it’s completely against people’s intuition: which number starts with shouldn’t be the same number of times! But if you think about it, if you start with 1, go through 1,2,9, and end at this point, the number of times which number starts is the same, but after 9 comes 10 to 19. Here again, the number of times the number that starts with 1 appears is much higher than the rest of the numbers. And before the next pile of numbers starting with 9, there will be a pile of numbers starting with 2,3,4,,8. If this counting method ever has an end point, the number of occurrences of numbers starting with 1 will generally be greater than 9.”

“So, the data in the ledger. The number of occurrences of numbers with 1 as the first digit is about thirty per cent of the total, and the numbers further back in time have a smaller number of occurrences. A ledger that goes against this rule is definitely a false account.”

“If you don’t believe me, you can go and find some other account books, and you’ll know whether they’re true or false once you try them.”

Zhu Pingan had a confident face and a powerful voice. At this moment it was as if he was a military commander pointing the way in the military formation, with his feathered fan and spandex, talking and laughing as his strong enemies flew into smoke.

The tents murmured, still not convinced.

“Dad, you just bring our family’s account book casually basic try it, and there is nothing to lose, if he is making things up, see how I scold him!”

The dark girl walked to Li Da Zaolong pouted, slender jade hand pulling Li Da Zaolong’s arm shook up.

Big Cai Zhu Li was only shaken twice before he waved his hand and asked Accountant Wang to go and get a few account books over.

Wang accountant went for a while, then took a stack of books and came back, about five or six books.

The dark lady Li Shu went up and grabbed it just as Wang Accountant entered the door, then took two steps to Zhu Pingan, glared hard at him, and pressed it into his arms in one go.

“If you mess up, I’ll make you look good!”

Miss Li glared hard at Zhu Ping An, grunted and twisted her small savage waist leaving Zhu Ping An with a haughty back.

So haughty, let’s see how you can get married!

Zhu Pingan belaboured.

After receiving the ledger, Zhu Pingan then divided the six ledgers equally among the three tables of accountants and said with a simple smile:

“The matter has come to this, all seniors may as well give it a try. If there are any mistakes, Ping An is willing to gamble.”

Just try it.

When the results come out, watch what excuses the brat still makes!

The bookkeeper also went along with it, flipping through the books and calculating, accounting for the books handed to them by Zhu Ping An once according to Zhu Ping An’s method, and then taking two of the books to be checked and accounting for them.

In less than half an hour, these accountants were able to calculate the account books.

Then, one by one, they were all messed up, they all had a look of disbelief, their faces were red, their hands were trembling a bit when they were grasping the account books, they didn’t know whether it was because of the excitement of getting a method of checking the accounts or because they had been misunderstanding Zhu Ping An just now, they were ashamed of it!

“Oh my god, the ones that were just brought in are about 30%, these accounts are only about 10%”

“It’s really like this.”

“That’s weird.”

“I have a few more ledgers here, I’ll try again.”

After a few moments, Zhu Pingan slung cloth bag will be bulging, two two three two of the broken silver a large number, there are many ten silver bills, and even a fifty silver bills, this is the hair white old accountant trembling hand hard to Zhu Pingan, Zhu Pingan can not be excused, a push, the old accountant will blow his moustache and stare at you, you’re saying that I have eyes but no pearls do not know the goods is not it?

I have no choice but to accept it as it is. In other words, these people are really real ah.

This will do!

The bun maid next to her, Painter, watched as these bookkeepers, who had originally scoffed at Zhu Pingan differently, each scrambled to stuff silver into Zhu Pingan’s hands to stuff silver bills, their little mouths opening into an o-shape.

Sure enough, they were sold and still counting money for this bad guy!

The belly girl’s pair of eyes brightened, but after seeing Zhu Pingan’s look of touching the bookbinder’s naive smile, those pretty eyes couldn’t help but roll a blank stare.

So unproductive.
