Speaking of which, the old stall owner is really not a perennial stall person. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

He is a steward in the Mandarin Pavilion of the city. Mandarin Court, the name should be familiar. In ancient times, there was the title of Wenhua Court Scholar. Among them, the Ming Dynasty was more prevalent.

In terms of official position, I won't explain it here. The Wenhua Pavilion in this city coincides with the name of the official position in ancient times, which is purely coincidental.

Wenhua Pavilion, such a big institution, or a big family, naturally has a housekeeper in it. That steward, with a lot of power. But the old man was not the housekeeper, but the housekeeper's fellow countryman.

Fellow villagers, that is, fellow villagers who see fellow villagers, the fellow with tears in their eyes.

Whether the fellow villagers are close or not, the first thing to look at is whether there are many fellow villagers, and the second thing to look at is the complexity of the environment.

It just so happens that the Wenhua Pavilion is here, the environment is very complicated, and there are almost no fellow villagers. finally found a fellow villager, it was the old man, so the housekeeper took care of the old man in many ways. The old man naturally excused himself at first, but he couldn't refuse, so he accepted it with a smile, referred to as laughing. It's just that what you laugh at is not necessarily an item, but in short, it's a benefit.

This time, on the side of Wenhua Pavilion's descendants, something happened to a few children. In fact, it's the kind of thing that the children of gentlemen usually love.

After the prosecution, separate punishments were imposed. Among them, several women's psychedelic rabbits were confiscated on the grounds that the playthings were demoralized.

The confiscated psychedelic rabbit is not good for forwarding to anyone. Because of his day, he will probably be begged to go back.

Wenhua Pavilion said something when he was in charge, saying that he directly killed the psychedelic rabbit and ate meat.

Say, naturally, can be said. Not only can the family say that, but after the family says it, other people can say the same too.

However, even if the family members have spoken, in fact, the people below still dare not eat those psychedelic rabbits.

Why? Because they are the treasures of the young ladies. The desire to stay for a while offended a few young ladies is simply more than worth the loss.

So, the housekeeper took advantage of his power to give the psychedelic rabbit to the old man's fellow villagers, and asked him to take it to the market and sell it, so that other people he didn't know would kill and eat meat.

In this way, he not only took care of his fellow villagers, but also followed the will of being a family, and he did not offend those daughters.

The housekeeper specially instructed that you should not sell it to a pet store, you must go to the market to sell it, and you must sell it by the pound.

In fact, according to the housekeeper's meaning, if a rabbit weighs one pound and three taels, and the guest comes, he can only buy four taels, which can be sold. In other words, someone like Lu Linlan who only buys feet can just cut off his feet and sell them.

Why? Because when the family speaks, the favorite meaning is that those psychedelic rabbits can't live.

The old man had never done business, so he asked for the price. The housekeeper first taught a price, said that the guest counteroffered, how to keep it, how to let it, and finally must stick to a certain price, and so on.

As a result, it was too complicated for the old man to accept.

In the end, the housekeeper gave a dead price, sixty taels and one catty, and there was no bargaining. The old man remembered.

Eight psychedelic rabbits, and finally weighed twelve pounds, which were hungry and thin. Originally, there were at least fifteen pounds.

At the price of death, those psychedelic illusions could not be sold for nine hundred taels. The housekeeper agreed with the old man, saying that after he sold it, he would just hand back five hundred taels. A lot is the old man's own hard-earned money.

As a result, it was not sold for a few days, and the psychedelic rabbit was starved and thin. If you want to feed the rabbits, the old man will naturally do. But these rabbits are not ordinary rabbits, they used to be the treasures of Miss Qianjin, and they were coaxed and petted. Therefore, the biggest reason why rabbits are hungry and thin is the rabbit itself. In fact, psychedelic rabbits are also able to eat grass like ordinary rabbits.

Now, the psychedelic rabbit has finally been sold. The old man thought that as long as it was not smashed in his hand, it would be a good thing.

Why can't you just smash it in your hands if you don't sell it? Can't you return it to the housekeeper? Of course not. In fact, he could have done it, but the old man knew that the housekeeper took care of him in many ways, and the old man was unwilling to always trouble the housekeeper.

The old man went back to his lodgings first. What are you doing? Take the money. If you sell four hundred taels, you have to pay five hundred taels, and you have to take at least one hundred taels.

The old man calculated the accounts, and in the end it was twelve catties, which should be seven hundred and twenty taels. So the old man took three hundred and twenty taels.

The old man looked at the silver carefully, and felt that there was no special mark. All right, that's it, put the money in his pocket, and went back to the butler.

――

Let's say that after Lu Linlan and the other four left the rabbit stall, no one mentioned the rabbit anymore during the conversation.

It wasn't until she walked out of the market that Lu Linlan patted Qiu Shuyi on the shoulder: "You performed well, you really deserve to be an expert!"

An expert is a person who is good at it. What kind of way is this? Acting. And acting, in different societies, is different. Therefore, these words can only praise those who are familiar. For people who are not familiar with it, don't just say it.

Qiu Shuyi knew that Lu Linlan was praised. This is, of course, usually known for a long time. For a long time, whenever it comes to acting, Lu Linlan has an envious face. She can't afford to pretend for such a thing for a long time, so her attitude towards acting is real.

Qiu Shuyi's acting skills were recognized, and she was naturally very happy. modestly said: "I'm nothing, if I don't act well, it's a joke." Eldest sister, don't praise me, you have to praise the East. ”

"What's wrong with the East?"

"She has never acted," Qiu Shuyi said, "At that time, time was pressing, and I couldn't explain the play to her in detail, so I could only briefly explain a few words, and then I relied on the scene to play." As a result, when I was on the scene, I encountered a difficulty.

"At that time, the old man wanted us to call you two back, so what should we do? I always remember that you told me that there are several important steps that must be done by the old man himself. So I pretended to leave, and forced the old man to go and turn you. At that time, I said, 'The time for an appointment with Miss Wang is almost up?' I said to Dongfang.

As soon as the words came out, I screamed in my heart. Faced with such a question, Dongfang replied yes and no, and no, no. Eldest sister, guess what she would do if she had that wooden mind in the east?"

Lu Linlan thought for a moment and glanced at Dongfang Yiqiao, and said, "I can't imagine it." ”

Qiu Shuyi announced the answer: "She replied, 'Yes, it's coming, there's still an hour and a quarter of an hour.'" ’”

Lu Linlan praised in surprise: "It's amazing, it's so talented to be a minion!"

"Sister Lu, what are you talking about?" Dongfang was confused. Why is it obviously a compliment, but that word is so unpleasant.

――

Tao Nian spoke.

Tao Nian said: "It's boring for your own people to praise your own people." It's better for Lu Linlan to tell the mystery here. ”

Lu Linlan said: "Haven't you all experienced it yourself. As the saying goes, hearing is false, seeing is believing. Personal experience is that seeing is believing, where do I need to do more and say something unnecessary. ”

Dongfang Yiqiao said: "Don't be eldest sister," this title was shouted with Qiu Shuyi, "Even if I have experienced it myself, I still don't understand." These rabbits, twelve catties, sixty taels per catty, should have been seven hundred and twenty taels, but in the end, how did we buy them for only four hundred taels?"

Lu Linlan said: "Life is not to live for the sake of living, but to live for the sake of survival. Therefore, everything should be seen, heard, and thought more. In this way, you will have several times more life experience than your peers. ”

Qiu Shuyi said: "I think the separation of the last weight may be wrong. ”

Tao Nian asked: "What about the reason? If there is no reason, maybe the previous price is wrong, or it is not necessarily." ”

Dongfang Yiqiao said: "I think both are right anyway. I just don't know how to do it, and when I count the money, it's nearly half. ”

"But I still think it's wrong to separate the weights," Qiu Shuyi said, "although I can't say why, I insist." ”

Tao Nian said: "The matter is obvious, if you don't experience it yourself, you will definitely understand." So, Lu Linlan, don't sell it, just say the answer. ”

――

Lu Linlan shook her head for a while, and finally said, "Okay, I'll tell you the answer." In this transaction, the buyer separated the parts of the goods, resulting in two separations in the buying and selling process. In the previous case, the price was separated, and the latter time was the weight separated. There is nothing wrong with separating twice. If it's wrong, you think, then why did the old man do that? And the end result, that is, the total amount of money is reduced by almost half, is due to the reason for the two separations.

"I'll put it bluntly, there's nothing wrong with separating twice, whether it's a price difference or a weight separation. So what's wrong? What's wrong is that you can only divide it once, you can't divide it twice. One point twice, the total amount is naturally less. ”

"Oh, is it?" Qiu Shuyi said, "Wait for me to calculate," and then muttered for a while, "It's really hey! If you only divide it once, whether it is the price or the weight, it will be seven hundred and twenty taels in the end!"

"The most common quality of a businessman is shrewdness!" Lu Linlan said, "The dictionary explains shrewdness, saying that it is capable and intelligent, but it obviously fails to grasp the essence." The second explanation, sincerity and sincerity, is a thousand miles wrong. As for the third interpretation, clear and bright, it is derived from the process of the creation of the word. "Chinese Chu Yu Xia" says: The husband and God are shrewd and come to the people, so they seek to prepare things, not to seek abundance. At that time, it meant purity and lightness, that is, neatness and cleanliness.

"In fact, shrewdness, that is, the baht must be compared, that is, every inch of land must be contested. As a result, such people tend to see the parts very clearly, but often forget to look at the whole. The buying and selling just now, from a partial point of view, is all right. Because it was all right, the old man did it. But on the whole, it was wrong to divide it again. The old man lacked an overall view, and even after the fact, he knew that something was wrong, and he couldn't think of the reason. ”

"Awesome!" Qiu Shuyi said, "Fortunately, the eldest sister is with us!"

"I've seen a lot of powerful people," Dongfang Yiqiao's first half of the sentence is a bit sour, but the second half of the sentence is not, "But I've never heard of someone as powerful as Sister Lu before!"

――

Tao Nian felt the need to pour cold water on Lu Linlan to prevent her from swelling herself, so she said, "What if you are facing me? I mean, why don't you also get something out, so that I know that it is wrong, but I just can't tell the truth." How?"

Lu Linlan asked: "Sister Tao's cultivation is profound, it must be needless to say in terms of skills?"

Tao Nian was puzzled: "Do you want to compare your skills with me?"

"No," Lu Linlan said, "I have questions about my skills, and I want to ask a question or two." ”

"Say it. Tao Nian knew that Lu Linlan must not be a normal consultation at this time, so he cheered up and beware of the trap in Lu Linlan's words.

"It was said that there was a mortal who ran away. In the back, there was a sharpshooter who shot an arrow at the mortal vest!" Lu Linlan said, "In the end, the mortal was not hit by the arrow. ”

"That archer has no name, right?" Tao Nian said.

"Sister Tao is saying that the sharpshooter didn't aim?" Lu Linlan said, "No, he aimed very accurately. Until the end, the arrow was still pointed at the mortal's vest, but unfortunately the arrow failed to catch up with the mortal. ”

Tao Nian reprimanded: "Flying arrows can't catch up, you still say it's a mortal?"

"No, no," Lu Linlan said, "when did I say that the mortal was fast? Actually, that mortal's speed was very slow. It's hard to say how slow it is. But in short, the speed of that mortal must be much slower than the speed of the arrow that flew out. ”

"Aren't you talking nonsense?" Tao Nian said, "A fast arrow, not chasing a jogger?"

Lu Linlan rolled her eyes: "Of course." Ah no. I'm talking about not catching up, not of course. ”

"Then you should tell me the truth inside!" Tao Nian demanded.

"Okay," Lu Linlan said, "Since Sister Tao loves to learn so much, then I'll make it difficult for me to explain a thing or two."

"This incident is about the fact that the arrows failed to catch up with the running mortals. In fact, we can completely remove the specific signs and extract the essence, that is, the fast, not the slow. As for what is fast and what is slow, then it doesn't matter.

"Let's give a hypothesis here, that is, how fast is fast, how slow is slow. This does not change the essence of the matter, but makes it simpler when we analyze it.

"Well, I'll stipulate that the speed that is fast is twice as fast as the speed that is slow. That is, the same time, the fast, the distance passed, is twice as long as the distance passed by the slow one.

"Well, there's the primordial distance, which is where they separate. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is the original distance between the two. This distance doesn't really matter, because we analyze whether we can catch up, not how long it will take to catch up. So it doesn't matter if the original distance is long or short.

"So, let's assume that the original distance between the two is ten zhang. Sister Tao has any opinions?"

Tao Nian lagged for a while, went through what Lu Linlan said in his mind several times, and finally replied: "I have no opinion." ”

――

"Since that's the case, then it's begun," Lu Linlan said, "and both set off at the same time, heading in the same direction."

"The next moment, when the fast, that is, the arrow reaches the original position of the slow, that is, the mortal, where is the mortal?"

Tao Nian thought for a moment and said: "When the flying arrow reaches the original position of the mortal, it means that the flying arrow has flown ten zhang. Since the speed of the two is twice the relationship, that mortal must be in the position of five feet in front of the flying arrow. ”

"That's a beautiful answer!" Lu Linlan said, "So, what about the next link?" that is, when the arrow reaches the mortal's original position again, where is that mortal?"

This time, Tao Nian replied quickly: "That mortal is two and a half feet in front of the flying arrow. ”

Lu Linlan said: "So, what about the cycle?"

"What do you mean?" Tao Nian asked.

"I can hear it!" Qiu Shuyi said, "The relationship between two times the speed, here, it becomes half the distance." At the beginning it is ten zhang, and it is five zhang when it is folded once. Fold it again and again, it's two and a half feet. Fold it again and it is half of two and a half feet. The ancients said: A one-foot hammer takes half of it every day, and it is inexhaustible. Sister Tao, there is no end to breaking it in half like this. ”

Tao Nian argued: "But the distance between them is getting shorter and shorter!"

"Yes, the distance between them is infinitely close to zero, but unfortunately, it is not equal to zero," Lu Linlan said, "so the conclusion came out: the flying arrow can never catch up with mortals, and the fast can never catch up with the slow." ”

Tao Nian thought for a while and said, "You are arguing for reason! It's better for you to run ahead, let me chase and try to see if I can catch up!"

"If the gentleman doesn't move his mouth, Sister Tao won't be interesting like this," Lu Linlan said: "What you just asked for is to let me come up with something casually, so that you know it's wrong, but you just can't tell the truth, right?"

"Now that I've figured it out, the arrows can't catch up with mortals. If you can name what went wrong in my analysis process, you win. It's not that if you actually catch up with me, you win. ”
