Zhou Zhineng spoke like this, which made Zhu Houzhao slightly stunned. Originally, he saw Zhou Zhi move the statue with his own eyes today, and he already had a little appreciation for Zhou Zhisheng. In addition, Zhou Zhi is Xiao Li Feng's eldest brother, and he loves the house and Wu, which makes Zhu Houzhao have a little love for Zhou Zhi. But now that Zhou Zhi said such a thing again, Zhu Houzhao almost began to admire Zhou Zhi.

He secretly thought that Zhou Zhiqi was not only smart and talented, but also had such a heart and bearing, which was much stronger than many old rotten Confucians who were eager to repay and calculate, and more powerful than many old ministers in the court. And looking at Zhou Zhi's age, he is only about the same age as himself, hehe! Such a person should be the person I Zhu Houzhao needs.

Speaking of which, although Zhu Houzhao is stubborn and likes to mess around, he has great ambitions in his heart. Of course, his lofty ambition is to adapt to the current Ming Dynasty, that is another matter.

In short, Zhu Houzhao actually doesn't want to be mediocre and do nothing, he wants to do many big things in the future and become famous all over the world.

Not only Zhu Houzhao, but everyone present was deeply impressed by what Zhou Zhi said just now. Zhou Zhi is a country show with such a mind, and it will become a big thing in the future.

Many people actually understand a truth, that is, how big the heart is, how great the future achievements will be. The saying that "the prime minister can hold the boat in his belly" is very reasonable.

Even Xu Kuibi, Guo Xun and Liu Xiankai, who were kneeling on the cold ground, were stunned. However, the three of them claim to be much smarter, but they are different from most people's views of Zhou Zhi. What they think is, grandma land! This Zhou Zhi is really smart and cunning.

After a few things, although the three of us did not have a deep hatred with Zhou Zhi, he definitely hated us. He must wish we were punished by the prince! Jiang Lun just now is a good example. Otherwise, Jiang Lun was punished by the crown prince just now, why didn't he help intercede?

He is now pleading with us, just to leave a broad-minded impression in front of the prince, so that the prince will appreciate him and think highly of him.

Hum! It's such a little trick to hide from others, but it can't hide from the three of us!

Zhou Zhi, don't think that if you intercede for us, it will make us think of your goodness. Then you just think wrong, the more you are like this, the more it shows that you are hypocritical and cunning, how can we three dignified men and gentlemen be with you? If there's a chance, I'll get rid of you.

Of course, what they said about getting rid of them was not to kill Zhou Zhi, and the hatred between them and Zhou Zhi did not reach the point of life and death. They just wanted to drive a poor talent like Zhou Zhi out of the country and deprive Zhou Zhi of his fame.

Zhu Houzhao was silent for a while, then lowered his head and said to Xu Kuibi and the others, "Since Zhou Zhixiu interceded for you, this prince has to give him a face, and he will have the right to bypass you today."

However, the three of you can study hard in the future, cherish the opportunity, and never make friends with Zhou Zhi again. ”

Xu Kuibi and the other three said in unison, "I'll write it down." ”

"Alright, let's all get up!" Zhu Houzhao raised his hand very casually, and the three of them stood up, lowered their heads and slowly retreated, no longer speaking.

Zhu Houzhao said again, "Zhou Zhixiucai, this prince has actually been very curious, how did you come up with such an ingenious way to move the statue, this prince wants to know!" ”

Zhou Zhi hurriedly smiled and said, "Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, in fact, Zhou Zhi is not smarter than others, it's just that the villain has put more thought into observing everything in this world.

In fact, there are many things in this world that are not what we see on the surface, and there may be secrets hidden in them. For example, now I have a question, let me ask you, how much does a pound of cotton weigh or a pound of iron? ”

The reason why Zhou Zhi said such a question is actually a deep meaning. Anyway, I'm out today, so I'll really show it. Moreover, in this country, there are talents almost all over the world. If you say some of your thoughts, you may be able to inspire some people, and thus you can be regarded as enlightening the people's wisdom.

Zhou Zhi saw more and more that the people of the Ming era were not stupider than the people of later generations, but their knowledge was much less than that of later generations, and their relative vision was narrow. If you have a narrow vision, you will naturally not be able to explore more knowledge.

Like a pound of cotton weighs or a pound of iron, Zhou Zhi doesn't know when such a problem appeared. Anyway, in later generations, those who are simple-minded and more ignorant will easily answer wrong.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhou Zhi's words fell, someone laughed, it was Guo Xun. Guo Xun bowed his head just now, and when he heard such a simple question, he immediately lifted his spirits. He secretly thought about what happened to Zhou Zhi today, he moved the statue, and he was in the limelight in front of the prince and everyone. Is he dizzy, thinking that everyone is stupid, and he is just a smart person?

Hehe! Maybe Zhou Zhi is at this level, and he can only have such a naïve and simple question.

Yes, he is a poor sour talent in the countryside, how talented he can be, even if he is smart, he is just a little clever. The method of moving the statue just now was just a small trick of carving insects. It's not good to say that it's in the countryside, he has seen others move heavy objects like this, and he just imitates it.

Zhu Houzhao was also surprised when he heard Zhou Zhi ask such a clear question. However, he still didn't say it on the spot, but set his eyes on Guo Xun and said, "Then ask Guo Xun to answer Zhou Zhixiucai's question!" ”

"Huh! Does this need to be answered? Of course, the iron is heavy! Guo Xun, who was fast-talking, immediately blurted out.

Zhu Houzhao then looked at Zhou Zhi and observed Zhou Zhi's expression. He thought that Guo Xun's answer was very good, and it was true. Who doesn't know that iron is much heavier than cotton? That's simply not a problem.

But Zhou Zhi's face was calm, very calm, silent, but set his eyes on everyone present.

Although everyone thought of the same answer as Guo Xun's answer, but somehow, the people at the scene were silent. What many people think is that a smart person like Zhou Zhi would never just ask such a simple question, it must be a hidden mystery.

Sure enough, after a while, someone laughed again.

The person who laughed this time was Mr. Arithmetic Xing Hong. After Xing Hong laughed, he strode in front of Guo Xun, pointed at Guo Xun and reprimanded, "Guo Xun, how many times have I told you that you have to use your brain when you encounter problems. Don't you have a brain? Such a simple question, you even answered it incorrectly. Hum! It's also a shame that you really learned arithmetic from me for a few months, you are really ashamed of me, what a reckless and ignorant person. ”

Xing Hong has a strange personality, although he is in front of the prince, Xing Hong is still so arrogant and not afraid of the prince.

But Guo Xun didn't think about it, so he said again, "Sir, I know you like Zhou Zhi, but you can't like it like this indiscriminately." How do I get the answer wrong? Please also ask for advice! ”
