Chapter 456: A simple math problem that everyone says
"Shouldn't the amount of rain be reduced when the temperature drops? This Yanjing Mansion is about to be flooded! Zhao Huan looked at the rain curtain outside the window and said with a sigh.
The heavy rain poured down on the eaves, and the sound of tinkling and ding dong was endless, and the rain fell down the bricks and tiles, forming a rain curtain and falling on the railing.
The small pond outside was smashed into small blisters, and the lotus flowers stood firm with green leaves, welcoming the surging summer rain.
[The drop in temperature is not directly related to the amount of rainfall, affected by strong convective weather, there will be heavy rain in Yanjing City recently, please bring rain gear when you go out. 】
Zhao Huan looked out the window helplessly, it was raining heavily, and even the big construction site in Yanjing City began to stop, waiting for the rain to stop.
And Zhao Huan also rarely rested for a few days.
The notes sent from Bianjing have become fewer, and there are not too many major events, but Bianjing City has recently prepared for the official examination.
Zhao Huan didn't have any opinions on the exam questions, there was a question, he was not very good at doing it, and after a little study, he cleared his mind.
"The Yangtze River accepts all the water, and there is no turning back, and the blue sea can accommodate the waves, flowing eastward day and night. This question is kind of interesting. Zhao Huan also scratched his head when he looked at the title.
Mathematics is a thing that fills life, all-encompassing, and this group of students who take the official examination are going to suffer.
Zhao Huan tried to calculate, this question is not very difficult, but he just didn't think about it for a while.
Zhu Lian put a cup of tea on the case, saw Zhao Huan calculating the problem, and asked, "Official, can I take a look?" ”
"Just look at it if you want to. The official exam is coming soon, and the first official exam since I ascended the throne is a big matter, but this question is a simple deformation from the fourteen books of arithmetic, and it is not difficult. ”
Zhu Lian put down the teacup, crooked it in Zhao Huan's arms, adjusted her body, and let herself lie comfortably in the arms of the official family, she read it with the notebook.
"There are three colors of cloth, cotton, and wadding in the library, and I want to make military uniforms."
"Its cloth: six people and eight horses are one hundred and sixty horses less, and seven people and nine horses are five hundred and sixty feet left."
"Its cotton: one hundred and fifty taels for eight people, and sixteen thousand five hundred taels remaining, and one hundred and seventy taels for nine people, and fourteen thousand four hundred taels left."
"Its whack: 13 catties for four people, 6,840 catties less, 14 catties for five people, sufficient."
"Do you want to know the sergeant and the geometry of cloth, cotton, and wadding?"
"It's a very simple two-set question, it's very simple." Zhu Lian looked at this question with a smile and said.
For example, this question is the military uniform production management topic in the army's service and support management, and there are many similar small classifications.
is typical of applied mathematics.
Zhao Huan nodded, he also felt that it was not difficult, since Zhu Lian was a girl, it shouldn't be very difficult.
In his impression, girls are generally poor in mathematics. Since she can do it, the students of the Great Song Dynasty should not find it difficult.
Zhao Huan ignored a basic fact, mathematics is not a thing at all, regardless of men and women, it is not at all!
Although it is generally true that men are stronger in mathematical logic, it has a great deal to do with the education they receive.
Zhu Lian sat on Zhao Huan and wanted to write down the answer to this question.
Zhao Huan got up and asked Zhu Lian to sit down, writing calligraphy must be done in a correct posture, or writing out the handwriting, it is really unsatisfactory.
Zhu Lian's handwriting is extremely beautiful, and the answers throughout the article are logical and self-correct, and the answers given are also reasonable.
"Not bad." Zhao Huan blew the ink on the paper, put it in the envelope, and just follow this answer.
However, he quickly wrote an answer, dried the ink, and was about to put it in the envelope, Zhu Lian said curiously: "What the official family wrote, can you show me?" ”
"I can't." Zhao Huan said.
"Oh." Zhu Lian was a little frustrated, probably some kind of military event, she comforted herself.
"Unless you ......" Zhao Huan whispered in Zhu Lian's ear, making a very good suggestion.
Zhu Lian blushed and said coquettishly: "The official family really never forgets this stubble..."
"Then you can show me. I will answer you. Zhu Lian blushed and nodded.
Zhao Huan laughed and picked up Zhu Lian, he couldn't go out anyway on a rainy day, and there was no Zazi, the beauty was on the side, and An Neng didn't move his index finger?
"Official! It's daytime! Zhu Lian said with a frightened pat.
"It's daytime." Zhao Huan ignored Zhu Lian's weak slap.
"Huh..."
The letter passed by Zhao Ding's convoy and came to the hands of Li Gang, the chief examiner of Bianjing City.
An excellent ruler knows when to increase the rule of officials, although the official family is punished for half a year, Li Gang still reads out Zhao Huan's idea of wanting to exchange blood for the court.
Otherwise, why would it be necessary to set up administrative colleges in Yanjing, Bianjing, Lin'an, and Chengdu?
Teach others how to be officials?
Li Gang didn't think it would be so simple.
He sat in the examination room and received this standard answer from Yanjing, Li Gang looked at the handwriting, and knew that this was not an official handwriting, it should be written by Zhu Lian.
The answers are extremely correct and excellent, and the questions that a harem concubine can do, there is no reason why students who have worked hard for years can't do it.
As long as it is an individual, it cannot escape a psychological effect called the halo effect.
When a person has certain characteristics, they will make similar judgments about other characteristics. When you see someone with a certain trait, you can't see the others.
What Li Gang saw was their ability to study poems and songs for ten years, but he forgot that the students were not like him, who had studied in the ordnance prison for a long time and were like fingers at all kinds of arithmetic.
Most of his test papers are such double sets of math problems, or math problems of co-ordination.
As a result, when he was marking the papers, when Li Gang looked at the answers on the exam papers, he couldn't help scratching his head, was it difficult for him to come up with the questions?
"Liu, come and take a look at this question, is it difficult?" Li Gang gave the title to Liu Yi, and Liu Yi took it and looked at it for a while and said, "It's very simple." ”
"This is the answer from Yanjing, it should be written by Zhu Guifei, you can show it." Li Gang handed the answer to Liu Yi, of course he had a standard answer, but the answers made by the students were varied, which made him hesitate.
"Put the number of people in the middle of it, put the name of the given thing on it, and put the number of profits below it. This first step is placed in perfect place. ”
"Let the dimensions multiply, first multiply the number of people by their giving rate, subtract the surplus as the method, and then multiply the number of people as the send. The arithmetic skills of this step of the cross multiplication are excellent. ”
"And then multiply the surplus by the undiminished one, and get it. There is no mistake with this step either. ”
"The above and the bottom are combined, and the upper and lower are combined, which is the reality of things. The subordinate merger is sent to the army, and both are the same as the law, and one, the army is fifteen thousand one hundred and twenty. Then the remaining three things can be solved: 20,000 horses of cloth. 300,000 grains of cotton, 42,336 catties of wadding. ”
"Good!"
"The five-step method is very clear, the steps are complete, the organization is clear, and Zhu Guifei is also a capable person. Didn't the official give a result? Liu Yi asked after reading the answer.
Li Gang took out a piece of paper and said with a smile: "This is written by the official, using a lot of questions outside the square, I look a little dizzy, but after a little combing, I found that the official method also has merits, for students who memorize by rote and do not seek to understand, this method may be better." ”
"But we are election officials, how can we not seek to understand?"
"Oh?" Liu Yi took the answer given by Zhao Huan.
In fact, Liu Yi has seen the words outside the square, after all, there are people in the city, and Liu Yi has also seen their words, but he knows that these words outside the square, each of which has no meaning.
But it can represent all things, just because it is simple to write.
"Li Dazai, you have greatly misunderstood the official family, the official family is not simply pushed to a formula, but more a... A... Inductive and summarized thoughts! That's right, this is it! Liu Yi looked at the various assumptions given by the officials and deduced the formula and said!
"Oh? Does it really have a deep meaning? Li Gang took it and took a good look, but he still didn't see any big connotation.
Liu Yi laughed and said: "Fang Wai is not useless, I will keep this answer, I always feel that this is the official family repeatedly reminding me of some inspiration, but I can't understand the holy will." ”
"You people are all people who cultivate immortals and seek the Tao, who knows what you say." Li Gang continued to mark the papers according to Zhu Lian's answer.
Marking papers by name is a method and method of educational fairness that the government has repeatedly emphasized.
Zhao Huan was refreshed and waited for the results of the national examination in Bianjing City, but he first waited for the hundred students and Zhao Ding who came from the Chema Laotun Express.
They took their robes in the pouring rain and came to Yanjing City.
