Lu Fang asked, "Lord Lin, do you have any way to calculate?" ”

Lin Yuan waved his hand and said, "Bring the things up!" I saw a big man coming up from the stage, holding a thick rope in his hand, Lin Yuan smiled: "Let's use this rope, the thickness is similar to your small wooden strip, use it to form the arc I draw, and then put sand in it, what do you think?" ”

Lu Fang thought to himself: "That rope is very thick, it may not be able to enclose the shape drawn by Lin Yuan, I might as well let him try it!" Lu Fang then nodded in agreement, and Lin Yuan called a few entourages up and put the blackboard on the ground, what Lu Fang didn't expect was that the rope brought by Lin Yuan really surrounded the arc drawn by Lin Yuan.

It wasn't until Lin Yuan's entourage used ropes to enclose the three arcs that Lu Fang's subordinates finished counting the numbers, and Lu Fang said, "Let's take out the results calculated by both sides first." ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "There are only three numbers, let's just write the calculated numbers on the blackboard." ”

Lu Fang smiled reluctantly and said, "That's good." Lin Yuan immediately asked his subordinates to write three numbers on the blackboard, which were 45, 58, and 36.

Lu Fang also asked his people to write down the results, only to see that the results were: 69, 32, 64, some are larger than Lin Yuan's results, and some are smaller than Lin Yuan's results.

Lu Fang saw that his number was much different from Lin Yuan's, and his heart couldn't help but feel cold, and then Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Now we can measure the standard, right?" ”

Lu Fang waved his hand and said, "Let's start measuring." "A few people poured sand into square cups, measured the height, and after a while wrote the standard numbers on the blackboard – 48, 60, 40! As soon as the numbers came out, everyone understood: Lin Yuan won completely!

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "How is it?" You guys lost, didn't you? You are neither as accurate nor as fast as we are! ”

Lu Fang was speechless, walked up to Xiao Dezhang with a panicked face, and said with a crying voice: "My lord, you forgive your sins!" ”

Xiao Dezhang slapped the armrest fiercely, and was about to get angry, when he heard Yuan Yulin whisper: "My lord, we haven't lost yet!" ”

Xiao Dezhang and Lu Fang were surprised when they heard this, and asked, "Is this true?" Why haven't you lost yet? We are not as fast as others, and no one is accurate in the results! ”

Yuan Yulin smiled: "Look at me!" Seeing Yuan Yulin stand up, he took two steps towards Lin Yuan and said, "Lord Lin Yuan, do you remember what we said about the bet at that time?" ”

Lin Yuan asked, "Isn't it just that whoever counts accurately wins?" ”

Yuan Yulin said with a smile: "What Lord Lin said is wrong, we didn't say that at the time, what we said was: 'You alone, the number measured and liquidated is more accurate than the number made by so many of us' Measurement and liquidation are two, and now we have lost in liquidation, but we may not lose in measurement!" ”

Lin Yuan scolded in his heart: "Aren't you using strong words? Why didn't you say it when I conceded defeat yesterday! At this time, the big man in the audience shouted loudly: "Nonsense, why didn't you say that when Lin Shuai lost yesterday!" ”

Lin Yuan peeked in, only to find that this big man was arranged by himself, and he couldn't help but be secretly happy in his heart, as soon as the big man said this, everyone arranged by Lin Yuan shouted one after another, and the scene was chaotic for a while, and when it was chaotic, an attendant behind Xiao Dezhang suddenly shouted: "It's all quiet, Lord Qincha has something to say!" ”

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "What does Xiao Dezhang want to say?" Give it a listen. So Lin Yuan made a "quiet" code to his own people in the audience, and everyone in the audience suddenly became a lot quieter. At this time, I saw Xiao Dezhang walking up to Lin Yuan, giving a salute, and said with a smile: "Lord Lin, we lost!" ”

Lin Yuan was also shocked when he heard this, and thought: "Xiao Dezhang actually admitted that he lost!" What's going on? Without waiting for Lin Yuan to react, Xiao Dezhang continued: "The matter of land measurement and liquidation will be fully responsible for Lord Lin!" After speaking, he waved at Yuan Yulin and the others, and said, "Let's go!" The group then got off the high platform and walked away.

Lin Yuan's entourage said happily: "Lin Shuai, they admit defeat!" ”

Lin Yuan didn't have the slightest joy, he frowned and said, "How can they admit defeat so easily? I don't think that's right! ”

The attendant hurriedly asked, "Are you saying that they have another conspiracy?" ”

Lin Yuan shook his head and said, "It should be, but it's not clear what it is." ”

In the governor's yamen, Yuan Yulin was frowning and said to Xiao Dezhang: "My lord, why do you admit that we lost?" If this power is handed over to Lin Yuan, our plan to buy land will be in vain! ”

Xiaode laughed loudly: "Lord Yuan, why are you confused? This land measurement and liquidation is not so easy, if Lin Yuan dares to take it, I will let him die without a place to be buried! ”

Yuan Yulin asked, "How come there is no place to die?" ”

Xiaode Zhang said with a cruel smile: "Let's go to Lanzhou first, meet Lord Yuan, and in Lanzhou, use the knife of this land measurement and liquidation to cut off Lin Yuan's head!" ”

Lin Yuan returned to the station, and then got a message from Xiao Dezhang: "We are about to rush to Lanzhou, and the affairs of Gansu will be carried out in Lanzhou, please move to Lanzhou as soon as possible." ”

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "As I expected, this matter will eventually be carried out in Lanzhou." And at this time Zhong Xinmin also sent a message, willing to submit to Lin Yuan and the Qing court, Yuan Shikai did not send troops to attack Zhong Xinmin, Lin Yuan left a part of his subordinates in Tianshui, handed over to Chen Fei, and then took the others to Lanzhou, before leaving, let Huang Ying close the dart bureau, changed the dart bureau into a martial arts school, attached to the education industry company under Zhang's Industrial Company, and invited Wei Qingyuan out of the mountain to serve as the honorary principal.

When Lin Yuan came to Lanzhou, he found that the people of Zhang's Industrial Company had arrived, Yang Xiaolin bought two streets as office locations, and infrastructure such as electricity, communications, and road transportation began to be built, banks and railways also resumed office, and business in the city flourished.

Lin Yuan lived in the house bought by Zhang's Industrial Company, and on this day, Xiaode Zhang sent someone to report: "Lord Lin, our family invites you to go over to discuss the land measurement and liquidation." ”

Lin Yuan happily went, and when he arrived at the place, Yuan Shikai, Xiao Dezhang and Yuan Yulin were waiting for him, and said politely to Xiao Dezhang: "Lord Lin, Lord Yuan Shikai heard that you can measure and liquidate the land by yourself, and I don't believe it!" ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "What's not to believe?" ”

Yuan Shikai said with a smile: "To measure the land, you have to take the tools and go in person, even if you have the tools, how can a person have the energy?" ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "What can't be measured?" I'm really energetic! Not only that, but I can stay at home! Can you believe it? ”

Xiao Dezhang said with a smile on the side: "There is no joke in the army!" Lord Lin, do you dare to make a military order? ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "Of course you can, I don't know how you want to set up this military order?" ”

Xiao Dezhang said: "The nearest county from Lanzhou City, called Tongyuan County, has thousands of hectares of fertile land, within three days, Lord Lin wants a person to measure the land area and liquidate it, if there is no result after three days, or the result deviation is too large, Lord Lin, you will fall to the ground!" This military order, does Lord Lin dare to stand it? ”
