"What do you say, rich man?" The princess didn't squeak, and Hong Tao turned his gaze to Fu Ji again.

"Please also make it clear to the Captain......

Fu Ji knew a little more than the eldest princess, but she didn't know how this bamboo mechanism could be many times more powerful than the calculation chip, and naturally she couldn't call the shots for the old craftsman, and it depended on what this crazy horse was going to do.

"Lian'er, go and take two copies of the accounts purchased from the house. Since Master Fu is a sixth monk, he should be no stranger to settling accounts, so why don't we have a competition here. No matter what method the rich man uses, I only use the abacus, whoever finishes an account first will win, what is it? ”

The ancients said that there was no evidence, and 10,000 sentences of explanation were not as convincing as a fact, so Hong Tao simply did not explain how the abacus was stronger than the calculation, but wanted to demonstrate it on the spot.

"Eldest Princess, Lord Captain......"

Of course, Fu Ji will not have any strangeness to settling accounts, and the competition method proposed by Hong Tao is not a problem. But a colt is a colt after all, especially in front of the eldest princess, using what she is best at to win a colt seems to be a bit of a bully, and then it is also a bit insulting to the royal family. She is familiar with the rules of the palace, and she definitely doesn't want to do this kind of meaningless thing that offends the eldest princess.

"Lord Fu, this matter has nothing to do with the royal family, you are not a female official now, you don't have to worry about the blame of the eldest princess and the official family. But I'm not competing with you in vain, if I lose, the big and small things of the Flying Eagle Club in the future will all depend on your will. If I'm lucky enough to win, can I really be considered a proprietor instead of a crazy colt and rubbish? ”

The eldest princess naturally couldn't refute her husband's proposal without permission, and just when she didn't know how to answer Fu Ji's request, Hong Tao spoke again. Not only did he insist on the competition, but he also added chips.

In this way, this competition is no longer a competition, but a bet. Didn't you say it, the good gambling of the Great Song Dynasty people has become a culture, and there is no need to consider any concerns such as superiority and inferiority when everything is stained with this word, and there is no father and son on the gambling table.

“…… Ji obeys! Fu Ji was also a little annoyed, and the colt's words were too harsh. I look down on him a little, but there are some things that can't be picked out, which will be difficult for people to accept, just like tearing your face.

The account book was soon brought in, and Hong Tao took one for himself and gave another to Fu Ji. After she had set up her calculations and started to do the math, she sat down at the table with a lot of care.

"Four down five to one, four to six into one, eight to two into one, eight up three to five into one......"

First, the freshly baked bamboo abacus was straightened, and the cuffs were stacked upwards, and then the index finger, middle finger and thumb of the right hand were stretched out, and the abacus beads were pulled for addition operations.

If you want to say that Hong Tao has been studying for more than ten years and finally learned any knowledge, there are actually only two kinds. The first is abacus, and the second is English.

The former has been learning for a longer time than the latter, and when he was in elementary school, every child would hold a big abacus to use as a learning tool during class, and after school, he could step on his feet and play as a skateboard.

Although I haven't used the abacus for many years, like a bicycle, this thing will never be forgotten once you learn it, but it is a little rusty, and after a short period of familiarity, you can quickly operate it freely.

"Oh, it's not that I don't know, I'm shocked, the expenses in the house are already beyond my means!"

In less than half an hour, Hong Tao stopped the plucking of his fingers and the muttering in his mouth, closed the account book, picked up the brush, wrote a few Chinese numbers on the table, and then shook his head and sighed.

"Word for word...... The official will teach Lian'er the miracle, and I will be able to help my sister settle accounts in the future! ”

The total number of the last pages of the two account books had been torn off by Lian'er beforehand, and she was holding a piece of paper to check the numbers written on the table, and soon came to a final conclusion, and then many small stars appeared in her eyes when she looked at the pony.

There are many people who can settle accounts, including herself, but it is the first time she has seen it so quickly and easily, even the shopkeeper in the store does not have this ability.

"Ji lost......" Fu Ji is not slow, but at this time there is still a small half of the account book that has not been turned over, even if it is not very convincing, but facts speak louder than words, and if you are not convinced, you have to be convinced.

This is the power of science, unlike humanities topics, which do not tolerate the slightest eloquence, only specific answers, and are clear at a glance.

"Lang Jun, what is this, why is it so magical, is it because of the immortal law?"

The eldest princess is a part-time bookkeeper in the Horse Mansion, and the accounts of the family have always been calculated by her herself, so she is naturally an expert. At this time, she was not calm, she pointed to the abacus carefully, and she didn't even have the courage to reach out and take a closer look, for fear of breaking the magic weapon.

......Seeing the expression on the princess's face, Hong Tao picked up the abacus and broke it directly with both hands.

"Ahh

"Oops!"

"Don't ......"

Then the three women present all let out a different exclamation, and the rest of the craftsmen did not make a sound, but they all had extremely surprised expressions on their faces.

It is estimated that in their eyes, the credit for settling accounts so quickly is not on the horse, but on this small abacus. Now that the abacus has been destroyed, isn't it a tyrannical thing, but it's a pity that I dare not speak out in anger.

"Pengda, make three more for me, two according to the size just now, and double the other one! Lord Fu might as well wait here, one of the abacus is specially for you, and the remaining two will be sent to my room, and then I will teach you the formula, can this matter? ”

Hong Tao likes to see others surprised, and the sense of accomplishment at this time is almost bursting, and his tone naturally has to be arrogant. It doesn't matter if you are five or six Shang, be a little apprentice for me obediently, dare to say that you are not happy for me to see!

"Ji was recruited...... Fu Ji pursed her lips, clenched her fists and plucked up her courage, but in the end she didn't dare to say a word, and honestly accepted the small punishment of the concubine.

It's not that she doesn't want to resist, it's not that she can't resist, it's that she really can't resist. As a long-time businesswoman, she knows how important it is to have a tool that is easier to calculate than a chip. At the same time, she also saw that the real power of the abacus was not in the abacus itself, but in the mantras that the colt chanted.

Even if Peng Da can make the abacus into exquisite handicrafts, but without the help of those mantras, this thing may not even be able to withstand a children's toy. Since the colt is going to teach himself the mantra, it is normal to be punished a little, who will let himself be incompetent.

In this way, not only should we not resent this mad colt, but we should thank him. This is the essence of the formula, and it is also a gift to be able to teach outsiders what to say.

It's light to be called a gentleman, and it's not too much to have an apprenticeship, who would teach a stunt that no one understands to outsiders?
