Chapter 88: Mental arithmetic only

After a long time on the water, it will inevitably be monotonous.

In order to pass the time, Jari taught Arabic numerals to everyone. The focus is on the deduction of the operation process of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

Miaoyu was reluctant to participate at first, but everyone else was studying, and no one accompanied her, so in desperation, under Daiyu's persuasion, she also joined in.

Although she studied hard and learned very quickly, she still couldn't change her stinky problem of being picky, and she always raised such and such tricky questions.

Fortunately, Jia Rui is an absolute authority in this regard, and Miaoyu can't raise any profound questions, all of which are resolved by him one by one.

However, Jia Rui also classified Miaoyu into the ranks of thorns and put them on the blacklist.

Dead girl, if you were in the family studies, I would have visited your home a long time ago, and asked your parents to beat you every day, and beat your Miaoyu into a wonderful salted fish and a wonderful stone.

A test was just conducted today, and now Jia Rui is commenting on the test papers.

"Lin Zhixiao, Zhang Hua, and Wang San are open-minded and studious, and they ask if they don't understand. Have a good attitude, study hard, make obvious progress, answer all ten questions correctly, and have no mistakes, which is worthy of praise. โ€

"Miss Lin, Zijuan, and Snow Goose originally had a foundation, but they were not arrogant or impatient, they still studied modestly, and there were no mistakes this time, which is worthy of appreciation."

"Jinhuan and Yinhuan, although they participated in the study late and were illiterate, they humbly asked for advice, and they also took the initiative to ask Zijuan, Snow Goose and other classmates for advice in their spare time."

"Although I got three questions wrong this time, I made obvious progress, and my spirit is commendable and commendable. I hope you don't get discouraged, don't give up, and keep trying. โ€

After Jia Rui finished speaking, he glanced at Miaoyu.

"Compared with the above-mentioned students, the performance of some people is disappointing."

Some? Who else?

Everyone looked before and after, this "part of the people", in fact, there was only Miaoyu left.

Miaoyu saw that everyone was looking at her, and naturally understood what was going on, so her little face was pulled down.

But now that it's a class, she can't get angry, she just hopes that Jia Rui, a teacher who lacks morality, can leave some affection for herself.

"Some people think that they are noble, have a family background, and can write a few crooked poems, so they are sad and sad, and they are sad about the new words. Hide in a small building and become a unity, taking care of him in winter, summer and spring and autumn. โ€

"In fact, it's just a disease-free moan, self-righteousness. Speaking of literature, literature and science do not make sense. I don't know what to do. It is impossible to talk about the economy and the world. โ€

"I didn't have any knowledge, and I was always proud of Mr. Trouble. If it were other gentlemen, they might have been put in a quandary by these people, but they had the misfortune to meet me. โ€

"Who am I? Xiucai won the test as soon as he was tested, and he raised his hands to catch him. On poetry, a poem "Mulan Ci", in today's world, how many people dare to compete? โ€

"On talent learning, Wenchang Xingjun sentence reading, Wenchang Xingjun numbers, are all my first creation, ask where are the heroes in the world? Far away, close at hand. โ€

They looked at each other and muttered to themselves.

I said sir, we know that you have some skills, but you are boasting yourself like this, is there some ......, ah, people say a humble gentleman, can you be humble?

Even if we praise you, isn't it better, I have never seen you like you, boasting about yourself.

"It's a person like me, who still has to go to Wenchang Xingjun and Confucius and Mencius. However, some people don't even understand addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, and are often self-righteous. โ€

"Don't talk about it, let's talk about this exam. Three out of ten questions were wrong. Even the gold ring and the silver ring are inferior. โ€

"A few wrong questions are not a big deal on the exam. However, if it is used in practice, it is often a big mistake. โ€

"For example, this question, 136+211, the correct answer, should have been 347. But some people answered 374, an extra 27. โ€

"For example, to pay tribute to the emperor, Shu paid tribute to 136 treasures, Ying Tianfu paid tribute to 211 treasures, and finally told the emperor that a total of 374 treasures were offered in the two places."

"The emperor checked there, no, there are only 347 pieces, where are the remaining 27 treasures? Did you swallow it privately? It's so bold that even my treasures dare to be swallowed privately, Jinyi Army, give me a good check. โ€

Everyone looked at Miaoyu again?

Sir, although it is not good for you to say that, he also has a point.

"As you may have said, the matter of tribute has nothing to do with me. Okay, let's talk about the things around you. โ€

This question, 125รท4, the correct answer, is 34 out of 1. But a certain classmate actually reached 34 more than 2. โ€

"If you have 125 maids and you are divided into 31 groups, should there be only one maid left in the end?"

"But someone counted the remaining two maids, and this is missing one maid. You say, "Where is the maid who is missing?" Did she run away on her own, or did she call the kidnappers to abduct her? Or did you ask someone to sell it? โ€

"Actually, it's neither, it's just that this master miscalculated."

"A maid who doesn't want to be an aunt is not a good maid. The master who doesn't understand arithmetic is not a good master. โ€

No matter how good Miaoyu's cultivation is, she can't help it in the face of Jia Rui's cynicism.

"Sir, who is not a sage? Is it sir, do you dare to promise that you will not be wrong once? โ€

"Of course you can, Miaoyu, are you not convinced when I say this about you? Okay, I'll give you a chance, and I'll let you test me today. โ€

"Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, whatever the number, you can do whatever you want. I don't need an abacus, I don't need a pen and paper, I just stand here, open my mouth in front of everyone's eyes. โ€

"That's what you said, what if you lose?"

"If I fail, I will worship you Miaoyu as a teacher in the future. What if you are defeated? โ€

"I, Miaoyu, worship you as a teacher."

"Okay, everyone is witnessing, let's get started. Lin Zhixiao, Zhang Hua, you two use the abacus to verify. โ€

"What is 1289, plus 5677?"

โ€œ6966ใ€‚โ€

As soon as Miaoyu's words fell, Jia Rui blurted out.

Lin Zhixiao and Zhang Hua crackled for a while, and the result was reached.

"Ah, 6966, it's not bad at all."

Daiyu and others also calculated on paper, and the results were the same.

"Miaoyu, Mr. is right, it is 6966."

"Daiyu, don't lie to me."

Miaoyu is no longer confident.

"I kid you not, that's the number."

"Hmph, I don't believe it. Listen, sir, what is 123 times 99? โ€

โ€œ12177ใ€‚โ€

Jia Rui blurted out without hesitation.

"Huh? It's exactly the same again, and the gentleman is simply divine. โ€

Lin Zhixiao sincerely admired Jia Rui this time.

"In fact, there is an ingenious algorithm for this question. 99 123, just count it as 100, that is, 12300. Subtract a 123 from this number, and that's 12177. โ€

"Isn't arithmetic, you say, funny? As long as you learn to be proficient, it is actually much more interesting than poetry and articles. โ€

"Okay, Miaoyu, I don't mean to embarrass you, I just hope that you will study hard and don't despise the science of arithmetic. It's good to be able to write poems and paint, but isn't learning arithmetic the icing on the cake? โ€

"I know that your knowledge is still very good, and the matter of apprenticeship should be regarded as a joke, and you don't have to take it seriously."

"Then how can I do it, since I have a word first, I am willing to worship you as a teacher."

Little girl, do you want me or not?

After accepting you as a student, you must not be? I want to live a few more years.

"No, no, the apprenticeship is over."

Miaoyu was unwilling, but seeing Jia Rui like this, she pushed the boat along the river and no longer insisted.

"Now that I have shown my skills in front of you today, I will no longer hide it. Miss Lin, Lin Zhixiao, you can also ask questions together, I promise to come as soon as you open your mouth, just like just now. โ€

"Okay, Brother Rui, you're welcome."

Daiyu was the first to agree, and everyone took turns to ask the question.

Naturally, Jia Rui coped with it easily. Not once miscalculated.

"Brother Rui, what kind of knowledge are you? Why can't I test you? โ€

Daiyu said helplessly.

Hehe, little girl, it's a very simple knowledge, just mental arithmetic.
