The above two copies of the test questions are written on the same sheet of paper. It is Liu Yiyi's first test for his future apprentices, one is the four mixed operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, and the other is the most popular brain teaser in later generations. Braces and other distracting difficulties are not added, as long as you follow the method of multiplication and division and then addition and subtraction in the book, you can easily calculate the answer.

However, in the Tang Dynasty, not to mention a five- or six-year-old child, it was an adult in his thirties and fifties. It may not be easy to calculate. After all, this is an era of seeking fame in the world with articles. Although there are people who are proficient in the study of mathematics, there are only a few of them, and they are far from reaching the level of popularization in later generations. Therefore, the simple addition, subtraction, multiplication and division of test question 1 are still very difficult for children in this era.

As for the second test question, it is Liu Yiyi who is testing the ability of his future apprentice to think about problems and respond to problems, and these four questions are the four easiest of all the brain teasers that Liu Yiyi knows. If they can't even answer these questions, the ability says that these students are slow to respond and don't know how to change things. Liu Yiyi didn't want to take in a bunch of nerdy apprentices.

Of course, there is no lack of Liu Yiyi who wants to be lazy and have a leisurely meaning, if the exam questions are simple, everyone can pass. Is it really a student who let him take hundreds of students at once? Let's not talk about whether he has so much time and energy, but if he does, wouldn't it be better to be able to take time out to spend with his family? Why do you have to take in so many students to tie yourself up?

You know, in Liu Yiyi's original plan. Accepting apprentices is just to deal with Li Zhen's coercive actions a few days ago, and it doesn't matter if he accepts one or two meanings, as long as he can get rid of the relationship with Yue Wangfu, his goal will be achieved. So. The exam questions are more difficult, and it can also be said that Liu Yiyi did it intentionally.

"This is the exam question given by our young master. Ordered people to separate parents and students, Chen Ming took a test question, held it high and said loudly to the nearly 100 students sitting in the empty place in the front yard: "There are two sets of questions, you can choose one of them, answer the questions according to the requirements on the questions, and those who meet the requirements written on the test questions can enter the door of my young master, whether it is calligraphy, medical skills, or arithmetic, or articles, as long as our young master knows, they will all be awarded." ”

Glancing down at the more than 100 students and schoolchildren of different ages present, Chen Ming waved his hand to signal the subordinate holding the test questions to divide the test questions. Because I didn't expect that there would be such a large number of people taking the test, so most of the existing test papers were copied by literate people in the house on the spot, a total of ninety-eight copies, considering that there should be more people in the next two days, so there are still people in the backyard who continue to copy, but the content of the transcription is no longer today's questions.

It was originally scheduled for a three-day period, but nearly 100 came on the first day. I don't know how many more will come in the next two days.

"Steward Chen, ninety-eight people, one is not a lot, and it has been divided." The work of a cup of tea was lost, the test paper was put completely, and the person under the paper bowed forward and reported to Chen Ming.

"Well, the clock will start ticking" and ordered the servant again, Chen Ming faced the many students in the seat, and said: "Start answering the question now, the answering time is half an hour, and once half an hour has passed, no matter whether it is completed or not, you must not answer it again, otherwise the test paper will be invalid." ”

Seeing that everyone was already holding their pens and bowing their heads to read the papers, Chen Ming continued: "Don't forget to write their names and addresses on the test papers." After the exam, regardless of whether each son passes or not, my Liufu will send someone to send the test papers and correct answers to their respective houses for notarization.

"Whew!" As soon as Chen Mingze's voice fell, there was a sound of relief in the courtyard, and those poor children who were worried that there would be cheating or black-box behavior during the exam or after marking the papers, were completely relieved, the test questions were the same, the answers were the same, and the most important thing was that they could see their answer sheets later. Is there any cheating and camera obscura or anything like that?

"Alright, let's start answering questions!" Knowing what these people were thinking, Chen Ming chuckled rarely, and gave them the test questions from the young master. There is also the way in which the papers are marked after the exam, which he himself admires.

The same test questions, only answers, this is much fairer and more just than those exams that write essays alone, when the test paper is sent back, the answers are released. Right is right, wrong is wrong, and no one can find fault with what is on the board.

"It's just that these test questions from the young master. It's really a bit difficult, let alone these little dolls. Even I don't have a clue," he moved his chair, and Chen Ming bent over to sit in the main hall. glanced at the two sets of test questions placed on the table next to him, and then looked at the more than 90 students under the seats in the courtyard who were already frowning and biting their pens. I secretly thought in my heart: "I just don't know if anyone will be able to pass today." ”

But then again, the apprentice of their young master. Is it so easy to do? Thinking of their young master's ability, Chen Ming couldn't help but puff up his chest, if they didn't have some ability, how could they win the favor of the young master and worship under the young master's door? "The husband accepts apprentices, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't take the article. But the arithmetic of this test question one, is it too out of the way, if it is not a student who specializes in a subject of clear arithmetic, I am afraid that it is difficult for someone to be able to answer all the backyards of Liufu, Zhang Chuchu handed the child into Liu Yiyi's arms, looking at his husband's special exam questions for calling students today, and seeing that the questions in the first set of test papers are all arithmetic, I can't help but have some doubts.

"In addition to wanting to find a disciple who is interested in arithmetic and talented, why not want to give a chance to those students who are proficient in cold and biased subjects." Holding his son, Liu Yiyi was very comfortable basking in the warm winter sun, and said: "Don't underestimate this arithmetic, if it is practical, this arithmetic is much more useful than those vain articles." ”

"Taxes, buildings, goods, all kinds of things, and the statistics and co-ordination of people, which can be separated from the calculation and change of these figures?" Moving lightly, Liu Yiyi sighed lightly and said: "It's just a pity that although there is an understanding of the role of arithmetic in this era, it is not enough to pay attention to it. Many people can't even solve the simplest ternary equations, let alone algebras. Geometry, calculus and other puzzles. ”

"Husband, do you want to pass on all the knowledge in your chest?" Although I don't know what Yanagichichi's mouth means by algebra, geometry, and calculus. However, from her husband's expression, Zhang Chuchu already understood. Her husband should really have the intention of accepting apprentices.

"My husband's knowledge is shallow, and his knowledge is only superficial, such as biology, mathematics, physics, chemistry, and other practical subjects. I have forgotten seven or eight, and now if I can't pass on even this little thing, I will have walked in this world in vain. Liu Yiyi sighed in his heart, and with a little sadness, he continued to say some words that Zhang Chuchu couldn't understand.

"If the husband wants to accept apprentices, isn't that something that can be obtained at a glance?" Seeing that her husband was a little sad and depressed, Zhang Chuchu couldn't help but feel distressed. Softly persuaded on the side: "According to the current reputation and prestige of the husband, why worry about not being able to accept good disciples, not to mention anything else, isn't Apo a good example?" In terms of calligraphy attainments, he should now have obtained the true inheritance of his husband. ”

"Also, aren't the children in the front yard who are doing the test papers all good students?" Zhang Chuchu said softly: "Chang'an City is full of talents. Prodigies abound, among so many people. There will always be someone who will be able to pass the test and meet the requirements of the husband's apprenticeship. ”

"Huh? Hehe, the lady is right, it's because the husband is a little hypocritical" Feeling that the atmosphere was a little heavy, Liu Yiyi couldn't help but chuckle. said: "I'd rather lack a mother, anyway, my husband is still young, and I still have a lot of time to squander, such as accepting apprentices, don't worry." ”

"Besides, it's really a suitable apprentice who can't receive it, isn't there still Xiaohui and Bao'er?" As he spoke, Liu Yi stretched out his arms and lifted his son in his arms high, and said, "Decades of kung fu is to educate me from an early age, and I also have time to teach a good apprentice, right?" ”

"It's great that the husband can think like this" Seeing that the husband had already thought about it, Zhang Chuchu's face also showed a smile, and after getting up and pouring a cup of hot tea for the husband, he once again focused his attention on the brain teaser on the second question of the test: "Husband, why is this question so strange, is it another trap."

"Which one, let the husband see
