Chapter 13: Burning incense
The shock in Wusun Va's heart was beyond measure.
You know, this question has really troubled the Hu people for nearly a hundred years!
It wasn't until recently that Hu Chuquan brainstormed and experimented with nearly a thousand methods, and finally found one method - ant pathfinding!
In such a short period of time, can anyone really solve it?
Unbelief!
I don't believe it!
Wusun Fan took a deep breath and said, "I don't know which master it is?" Please also show the Prime Minister! ”
Cao Cao looked at Jiang Feng again.
Jiang Feng said: "Lord Wusun, your question is too simple!" That's it, dare to use it to despise our big man? Is it true that I am a big man and no one under the prime minister! ”
Wusun said: "Don't talk big about it yet, you can solve this problem!" ”
Jiang Feng said: "This question is too simple, I'm not interested in solving it, it's better to ......"
Saying that, Jiang Feng looked at Cai Wenji and said, "It's better to let Mrs. Zhaoji answer for you!" ”
Anyway, the method and principle, Jiang Feng told Cai Wenji, Cao Cao, Cao Chong and his son, and any of the three of them can complete the task.
Jiang Feng pondered, there are still two questions behind!
If you shoot too early, there will be no chance for others to perform, and it really looks like we don't have enough manpower.
……
"Me?"
Seeing Jiang Feng push himself out, Cai Wenji was pleasantly surprised.
You know, this is a great opportunity to show your face in front of the Manchu civil and military forces and the Huns!
How many people have struggled to get such a precious opportunity in their entire lives!
Once you succeed, there will be no shortage of rewards!
Cai Wenji didn't have much interest in rewards, the most important thing was that Jiang Feng was willing to trust himself and was willing to give himself such a credit!
Jiang Feng's words had already been spoken, and Cai Wenji couldn't shirk at all, so she could only follow his words and walk out.
In his hand, he was holding a "food bowl" containing crickets, which Cao Chong had just found.
Not only Wusun Va's curiosity, but also the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces are also looking forward to it, and they don't know what method Cai Wenji will use to solve the problem.
Also, what is the purpose of the food bowl in her hand?
……
Under the watchful eye, Cai Wenji opened the food bowl.
Everyone couldn't help but come over and found that it was not a cricket, but an ant!
Seeing the ants, Wusun Van was shocked!
When he saw Cai Wenji tying the rope to the ant, he secretly said in his heart: "It's over!" ”
Wusun Fan sighed, and without waiting for Cai Wenji to verify, he said directly: "Mrs. Zhaoji, no need!" ”
Cai Wenji stopped her movements and said strangely: "Why? ”
Wusun Fan sighed with emotion: "You have already solved this problem, there is no need to verify it!" ”
Cao Cao laughed and said, "The envoy is a cheerful person!" ”
Wusun said: "The prime minister's subordinates are really able to produce many people, admire, admire!" ”
As he spoke, his eyes kept glancing over Jiang Feng.
Although it was Cai Wenji who came out to solve the problem, the discerning people present could see that Jiang Feng was the one who really found the answer.
Wusun Fan glanced at Jiang Feng for a while, and couldn't help but say: "I heard on the next road that the prime minister recently got a strange person, and Mr. should be that strange person-Mr. Jiang Feng and Mr. Jiang Bailong, right?" ”
Jiang Feng hugged his fists and said, "Strange people don't dare to be!" Jiang is just an inconspicuous younger brother under the Prime Minister, fortunately, fortunately! ”
……
The more humble Jiang Feng was, the happier Cao Cao was.
But nominally, this question was solved by Cai Wenji.
Cao Cao didn't want to reward Jiang Feng directly, looked at Cai Wenji and said, "Zhao Ji, you have made such a contribution tonight, what reward do you want?" ”
Hearing this, all the officials were shocked.
Listening to the prime minister's tone, he was planning to let Cai Yan open his mouth!
I heard that the prime minister and Cai Yan are in love with father and daughter, and this is true!
It seems that in the future, I will have to go to the drunken millennium to patronize......
Cai Wenji said: "Zhao Ji is ashamed and doesn't ask for any reward!" It is an honor for Zhao Ji to be able to share the worries and solve problems for the prime minister! ”
Cao Cao said: "Then how to do it, you must be rewarded!" ”
Cai Wenji looked helpless and said, "That'...... Akihime has only one request! ”
Cao Cao said: "But it doesn't hurt to say it! ”
Cai Wenji secretly glanced at Jiang Feng, and said with a red face: "Zhao Ji implores the prime minister, don't be a matchmaker for Zhao Ji in the future." ”
Belch......
Cao Cao had a question mark on his face.
This girl, how did she bring this matter out in a good way?
Don't let me pull the strings, could it be that she already has a sweetheart?
Either way, no matter what.
Let her decide her marriage!
……
Seeing that the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military expressions were relaxed, Wusun Fan was naturally unconvinced, and said: "Prime Minister, there are still two questions that have not been answered!" ”
Cao Cao said: "Say! ”
Wusunfa groped into his arms, took out two incense sticks, and said:
"The second question has to do with the hour."
"These two incense sticks are unevenly distributed, and the time it takes for each incense stick to burn is half an hour."
"How do you use these two sticks of incense to determine a quarter of an hour?"
An hour is two hours, and half an hour is an hour.
And a quarter of an hour, that's fifteen minutes.
How do you use these two sticks of incense to calculate a quarter of an hour?
The easiest way to time with incense is to cut the length.
However, Wusunfa said in advance that these two incense sticks are not evenly distributed!
That's a little tricky!
After listening to the second question, the Manchu Dynasty once again fell into deep thought.
Seeing that everyone didn't say a word, Wusun Fan looked proud and said: "The prime minister doesn't need to worry, tomorrow morning, it's not too late to give an answer!" ”
Cao Cao wanted to say something big, but after thinking about it for a while, he really couldn't think of a way, and he didn't even dare to say big things.
……
For the ancients, this question was indeed not simple.
However, in front of Jiang Feng, a person who has been baptized by modern mathematics, this problem is simply not too easy!
However, Jiang Feng didn't want to be in the limelight for the time being.
Jiang Feng knew that Cao Cao loved Cao Chong the most, and if he gave Cao Chong the second chance to show his face, Cao Cao would definitely remember his goodness!
So, Jiang Feng came to Cao Chong's side quietly and said, "Cangshu, do you have a solution?" ”
Cao Chong frowned deeply, and said, "It seems that there are some eyebrows, but ...... It seems to be a little messy. ”
Jiang Feng attached himself to Cao Chong's ear and muttered a few words.
Cao Chong was already extremely smart, and he could understand it at one point, but before Jiang Feng finished speaking, he already understood, and said happily: "Cangshu already knows, thank you Mr. for your guidance!" ”
Jiang Feng said: "Now that you know it, then go and verify it!" ”
"Hmm!"
Cao Chong nodded vigorously, walked out, and said, "Father, the child has found a solution!" ”
Cao Cao naturally saw Jiang Feng muttering with his son.
If it was Cao Chong's own way, Cao Cao didn't dare to believe it, after all, he was just an eleven or twelve-year-old child.
However, with Jiang Feng's guidance, Cao Cao was relieved.
He glanced at Jiang Feng gratefully and said, "In that case, then show the Hun envoy!" ”
"The child obeys!"
Cao Chong looked confident and walked towards Wusun Va.
