Chapter 394: Question 1
"You are all people who are full of wealth, and my question is not very difficult, please listen to my first question clearly: there are three people who go to the inn to stay, and the cost of one night is thirty copper plates, and each of the three people took out ten copper plates, and made up enough thirty copper plates to hand over to the innkeeper. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Later, the shopkeeper said that there was a discount tonight, and he didn't need thirty copper plates for one night, only twenty-five, so he took out five copper plates and asked Xiao Er to return them to these three people. Xiao Er secretly hid two, and then divided the remaining three among the three people. When Agula said this, an indifferent smile appeared in his eyes, and he glanced at everyone in the Taihe Palace, and everyone listened attentively to their own questions, and then continued slowly.
"However, the problem also came, the three people obviously took out ten copper plates each at the beginning, and now, they have also returned 1 copper plate, that is to say, ten minus one, that is nine, that is to say, the three people only spent nine copper plates each, a total of twenty-seven copper plates, plus the two shares that Xiao Er secretly hidden, that is, twenty-nine, so, the question is, where did the other copper plate go?"
"The title is so simple, this one was ...... at the time" After listening to Agula's question, some people were impatient to perform, and opened their mouths, but they couldn't think of the answer in their minds, and they looked very embarrassed.
"Hmm, that's a bit interesting?" After Shen Yan heard Agula's question, he quickly thought about the answer in his mind, and found that no matter how he calculated, he couldn't calculate the result, and a touch of anxiety couldn't help but appear in his eyes, and he looked at the others with the afterglow of his eyes, only to see that all the people in the Taihe Hall were frowning, thinking hard, except for the people who didn't think through their brains at the beginning, no one thought of the answer,
"Although I am not an expert in arithmetic, I also know a lot about arithmetic, so why can't I find the answer?" Xia Qi, who was sitting on the dragon chair, frowned tightly, thinking about the answer quickly in his mind, but the more anxious he was, the more he couldn't think of the answer, his eyes couldn't help but glance at Shen Yan, only to see Shen Yan leisurely looking at the other people in the hall, looking at this scene, a trace of thought appeared in Xia Qi's eyes, could it be that Shen Yan knew the answer? Do I want to name Shen Yan to answer?
"Hehe, it's not easy to answer this question, when I first heard this question, my whole brain was broken, I thought about it for three days and three nights, and I didn't come up with a result, fortunately, the person who came up with the question, saw that he was so studying, and finally told himself the answer out of kindness, and after hearing the answer, he just held back and didn't speak." Seeing the expressions and reactions of everyone in the hall, an indifferent smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and a trace of memory couldn't help but appear in his eyes.
"In fact, when I heard the answer, my whole person's expression collapsed, this is an arithmetic problem, obviously a logical thinking problem."
"How about it, my lords, time has passed for a stick of incense, I don't know which adult already has the answer?" Time flowed quietly, not for anyone's will to change, a stick of incense was quickly burned, Agula saw that the people in the hall were still pondering the answer with sad faces, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but appear a touch of indifferent pride, it seems that this first question stumped the people in the hall.
"Your Majesty, Emperor Great Xia, if all the adults present can't answer it, I will win this first question. Of course, if any of you can answer it in the remaining half of the incense stick, this question will still be counted as my loss. Seeing everyone's expressions, Agula looked like he was winning, a touch of pride flashed in his eyes, and with a hint of inexplicable look, he looked at Xia Qi who was high above.
"Hmph, this is the place of my early dynasty in Great Xia, and it doesn't represent the strength of all the talented people in my Great Xia, if you give enough time, or let all the scholars of Jinling think about this first question, I think someone will definitely give the right answer." Hearing Agula's urging voice, a look of disdain clearly appeared in the eyes of some officials, and they muttered in their mouths.
"However, that's what I'm assessing, if you have such an idea, then why don't you just say it, let all the talented people of Daxia come." Although the official's voice was soft, Agula had good hearing, so he heard it clearly, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he said slowly with a touch of disdain.
"I didn't expect this Agula to be really powerful, and this first question stumped the ministers in the Taihe Palace." Hearing Agula's words, a strange look appeared in Shen Yan's eyes, although he stood on a different position with Agula, Shen Yan couldn't help but give Agula a thumbs up in his heart.
"What can I do about this, according to this progress, none of the ministers in the palace can answer it, will this first question make me embarrassed?" Xia Qi glanced at the people in the hall with a look of annoyance, and saw that no one had a confident look in their eyes, and they all lowered their heads, still counting.
"Shen Yan, let's see if your confident demeanor has already achieved results, since there are results, you have to say it boldly, Beihu Guoshi is not an outsider." If there is anyone in the Taihe Hall whose expression is different from other officials, only Shen Yan, with a hint of indifference in his eyes at the moment, the afterglow of his eyes keeps scanning the ministers in the hall, Xia Qi looked slightly, Shen Yan really felt a little out of the crowd, therefore, Xia Qi, who did not dare to fail, could only point out Shen Yan's name and said loudly.
After Xia Qi finished speaking, he gave Shen Yan a comforting look, signaling Shen Yan that this question must be answered correctly no matter what, otherwise, it will be too embarrassing, and if he answers correctly, there will be a reward.
"Mom, isn't this killing me, I haven't thought of the answer yet, how do you want me to answer." Hearing the emperor's name, a trace of uneasiness appeared in Shen Yan's eyes, the answer to this first question is really not so easy to think.
"Wechen obeys." Regardless of whether he thinks of the answer, since the emperor has named him, he can only face the scalp, hoping that God will bless him, and he will think of the answer in an instant.
Thinking of this, Shen Yan's eyes couldn't help but glance at Agula, only to see a playful and mocking smile flowing out of Agula's eyes, Shen Yan's mind suddenly flashed a flash of inspiration, as if he had grasped the key point of the problem, his eyes turned quickly, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said loudly.
"There it is."
