Chapter 230: Mental Arithmetic
"Please ask the county lord of Huaizhu to answer the question." A voice came from the side, this voice also attracted the attention of Ji Ning, Tang Xie and others, this person was none other than Qin Feng, the son of the Qin family, a wealthy family in Jinling City, and was also recognized as the number one talent in Jinling City. Xie Yuan of the last township test.
Qin Feng has a great reputation among the young sons, and when everyone saw him, they were compared to his edge, and some people said: "This is not Qin Jieyuan?" ”
"It turns out that Qin Jieyuan is also here, with Qin Jieyuan here, it seems that we have no chance to help the county lord complete the ceremony, it's a pity." ……
Qin Feng's appearance was accompanied by a lot of sycophants, Ji Ning could understand that these people were found by Qin Feng, and they were specially cheered for him, so that he could show his face in Chongwang's Mansion, and even Chongwang could remember that there was such a person as him.
King Chong also looked at Qin Feng, smiling and bowing his head, Qin Feng held a folding fan in his hand, stepped forward and said, "Junior Qin Feng, I have seen King Chong." ”
"Okay, young talent." King Chong just praised casually, but he didn't take it too seriously.
At this time, Zhao Yuanxuan's little face was not very pleasant, and Qin Feng stole the limelight for no reason, making her master so faceless, her chin raised slightly, and said: "The problem from the county lord is not very difficult, it is just an ordinary arithmetic problem every day!" ”
When others heard it, yo, there is still a chance here, it's just an ordinary arithmetic problem, that is, to see who calculates faster, who can be powerful in Chongwangfu, and can insert a hairpin for the lord of Huaizhu.
Everyone held their breath, even those who were old, or who were married to wives, wanted to hear what this topic was, and if they couldn't go up to help the county lord complete the ceremony, they could also tell the final answer to the people they knew well, so that they could get a chance.
But listen to Zhao Yuanxuan said: "This is a problem of multiplying two numbers, six hundred and twenty-seven, multiplying by three hundred and twenty-five, please calculate the final answer!" ”
Straightforward, no superfluous exposition, the multiplication of two hundred digits, in the absence of any calculation tools, needs to be calculated with your mouth open, even if a person like Ji Ning is familiar with modern mathematical calculation formulas, he also needs to perform calculations on paper, to do such mental arithmetic, it is even more difficult for those present to ascend to the sky.
"This!" The people present looked at each other, this problem is said to be a daily arithmetic problem in the past, after all, it is a multiplication problem, but such a complex problem is really not much in practical use.
Most of the people present are children of big families, and many of them have been clothed and fed since childhood, and they almost don't have to pay for themselves when they spend money, and others will do it for them, even if they occasionally buy things, they use addition and subtraction to reach the sky, and let them calculate six hundred and twenty-seven plus three hundred and twenty-five may have to be counted for half a day, if it is multiplied, it is really better to kill them.
Many people are pulling their fingers, not to mention their fingers at this time, even if they add their toes, and then count the three thousand troubles on their heads, it is not enough, even if they can really add six hundred and twenty-seven to three hundred and twenty-five times, it will be counted until the Year of the Monkey.
Qin Feng was still quite confident, he originally thought: "A county lord, usually lives in the deep boudoir, he doesn't have much knowledge, he knows that he can't learn well and comes up with arithmetic problems, it's just opportunistic, I brought a few people, these people are all shrewd people, I just learned it, it is equivalent to combining the strength of six people to fight alone with you people, who can beat me?" ”
But when Zhao Yuanxuan came up with the question, Qin Feng was dumbfounded, he couldn't figure it out when he asked himself, so he had to look at the five companions he brought behind him, wanting them to help figure out the answer, but at this time, the five people were also staring at each other.
Chongwang's Mansion was very embarrassed, and many people were struggling to calculate, only Zhao Yuanxuan was quite proud of it.
King Chong didn't want his daughter's ceremony to become so deadlocked, he hesitated and said: "Huaizhu, today is a big day for you and Lu, if this question is not easy to answer, you might as well change to another topic, there are many people present who are talented and learned, and it is easier to distinguish them from the inferior by using the questions of the Four Books and the Five Classics to test the school!" ”
"Father, the child doesn't think so." Zhao Yuanxuan said righteously, "The child thinks that a person with outstanding talent and learning should not be limited to the Four Books and Five Classics, but should also have the talent of the ancient and modern countries, otherwise he will just be a nerd who can die reading!" ”
In a word, it is equivalent to scolding everyone present, and it is impossible to calculate that the title of Lord Huaizhu is "nerd", and even King Chong himself can't be counted, which makes his old face a little unbearable.
Just when everyone was still doing mental calculations, Qin Feng suddenly stepped forward and said, "It's been calculated!" ”
"Oh?" Everyone looked at Qin Feng, and they were also admiring in their hearts, Xie Yuan is Xie Yuan, not only proficient in poetry and articles, but also an expert in arithmetic.
Zhao Yuanxuan glared at Qin Feng, she was extremely reluctant to listen to Zhao Yuanxuan's answer, but out of the rules, she still said coldly: "You say!" ”
Qin Feng said with confidence on his face: "The answer calculated below is nineteen thousand nine hundred and twenty-five, this should be the final answer, right?" ”
Obviously, Qin Feng didn't calculate the real answer, he just heard an entourage next to him say that the last digit of the final answer should be five, and this number should be more than ten thousand, Qin Feng had an idea, he couldn't calculate it anyway, maybe the county lord of Huaizhu himself didn't know the answer? As long as I make myself very confident and stylish, others will believe me, and maybe the county lord will like me to be so sassy and heroic, even if she knows that the result is wrong, she will let me help her complete the final ceremony.
The plan seemed perfect, but it was clearly a mistake.
Zhao Yuanxuan said coldly: "You miscalculated, this is not the final answer!" ”
The confident smile on Qin Feng's face froze instantly, he didn't expect him to behave so gracefully, but he was still hit by Zhao Yuanxuan, his face was as if he had been slapped in the face, making him feel that he couldn't hold his face.
"Oh? The county lord said that the answer below is not right, so what is the final answer? Qin Feng also wanted to use his own little trick to trick Zhao Yuanxuan into telling the answer, if Zhao Yuanxuan couldn't say it, then he would have a reason to continue to affirm that he was right, and there would be people in the crowd to help him, then he must be the one who was selected in the end, and even King Chong would not refute it for the sake of face.
Zhao Yuanxuan said disdainfully: "The final answer is to ask you, is it the county lord who made the question, or you made the question?" ”
"Haha!" Zhao Yuanxuan just said a word, and someone in the crowd was snickering, Qin Feng immediately looked sideways to find the people who were laughing at him, and those people hurriedly pretended that nothing had happened.
At this moment, when he saw a person coming out of the crowd, this person made Zhao Yuanxuan's beautiful eyes suddenly glow, it was Ji Ning.
Ji Ning stepped forward and saluted: "King Chong, the county lord, and all the guests, I have asked for the final answer!" ”
