"What a strong country!"

Zhao Ji put away the paper fan and slapped it heavily on his left hand, "What the Hua Dynasty needs now is the study of a strong country, can Lin Gongzi be willing to teach this king?"

Liu Jiangbai showed a smug look, these days he tried his best to recommend Lin Mu to King Duan, but King Duan never believed it, and now King Duan has nothing to say.

"Your Royal Highness, the palace has its own palace attendants, Lin is just a grass people, how dare he trespass." Lin Mu had a headache, Liu Rumian, the second generation of officials, he could still clean it up, but this is the prince, and his nerves are a little embarrassed.

When Zhao Ji heard this, he groaned for a while, "This is also true, the name is not right, in this way, from today onwards, you will be the king's palace attendant." ”

His voice fell, and Master Chang, who was following him, suddenly said urgently: "Your Highness, the palace attendant is from the seven-rank official, Lin Mu has no merit and fame, how can he enter the palace to teach His Royal Highness the scriptures and history." ”

Zhao Ji frowned, he had always disliked this Chang Bachelor, "Last year, when my father asked this king to open a mansion in Jiangning, he said that one of the two attendants of the palace was selected by the imperial court, and the other was chosen by the king himself, so why do you need to rap." ”

Master Chang was dumbfounded, he was clear about this matter, and seeing that he couldn't stop King Duan, he turned his face and looked at Lin Mu fiercely.

Although the official position of the palace attendant is not high, he is nominally the teacher of King Duan, so his status is quite high, even if the court officials see him, they will not easily offend, if King Duan becomes the emperor in the future, the position of Taifu is not impossible.

Now King Duan has asked Lin Mu to serve as the second attendant of the palace, which makes him feel threatened.

"Your Highness, how can you judge that Lin Mu has real talent and real learning just by a clever word, since Lin Mu claims to be proficient in Western studies, you might as well let the lower officials test him, if he can answer correctly, the lower officials will no longer talk much." Bachelor Chang is not dead.

Zhao Ji thought about it for a while, and felt that what Mr. Chang said was also reasonable, he naturally knew the solution to Lin Mu's question, and if Lin Mu could answer the question fluently if someone else asked him, this could show that Lin Mu had real skills.

"Lin Gongzi, you see?"

Zhao Ji did not directly ask Lin Mu to fight, but asked Lin Mu's opinion, so that he could not offend Lin Mu, but also see Lin Mu's falsehood.

"Then please ask the question." Lin Mu originally had little interest in teaching King Duan, but it was different if King Duan took out an official position as a chamberlain in the palace.

Lin's house was raided, Lin's father was executed, and the scenes of midnight dreams in his memory would always wake him up, and he has never felt safe until now.

Because he knows very well that once he is targeted by the powerful, he is afraid that he will be eaten without even a bone left, and the bigger his family business, the more unsafe he may be.

Because of this, he would visit Liu Jiangbai to seek asylum, but he knew that this kind of shelter was only temporary, and Liu Jiangbai would not serve as the governor in Jiangning forever, so he had to rely on himself.

If he can enter and leave the palace, he will be equivalent to having the status of an official, and half of his feet will enter the scholar class of the Chinese Dynasty, and the palace attendant is an idle errand, which is equivalent to the status of a consultant, and it will not delay his life.

"One hundred steamed buns and one hundred monks, three big monks are more indisputable, three small monks are divided into one, and how many small monks are each?" Master Chang said slowly.

After listening to the question, Lin Mu had a plan in his heart, this is actually a one-dimensional equation, but it is only at the level of elementary school.

Picking up a branch, Lin Mu squatted down and wrote in the soil: If the big monk has x people, then the small monk has (100-x) people, so 3x+1/3 (100-x) is equal to 100, and x is equal to 25, so there are twenty-five big monks and seventy-five small monks.

Seeing Lin Mu answer with a few simple strokes, Master Chang couldn't help but be surprised.

And Liu Jiangbai, Duanwang and Liu Rumian all showed approving looks, although this question is not difficult, but it is still difficult for people who have no fame to calculate it in a very short time.

The look of everyone made Master Chang's heart even more unhappy, and he tried to maintain his apparent calm and continued: "This is just a simple question, but to warm you up, listen, the chickens and rabbits are in the same cage, and the thirty-six cages are exposed." Count the fifty pairs of feet, how many chickens and rabbits are there?? ”

After listening to this question, Liu Jiangbai, Duanwang and Liu Rumian all showed embarrassed looks, different from the question just now, they had no clue about this question.

Seeing this, Master Chang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, which showed that this question was very difficult, but when he saw Lin Mu's playful expression, he suddenly cooled down.

"Twenty-two chickens and fourteen rabbits." Lin Muxiao asked, Master Chang's problem has indeed been upgraded, from a one-dimensional equation to a two-dimensional equation, and the difficulty has risen from elementary school to junior high school, and solving this problem is just to assume x and y for chickens and rabbits respectively.

"Lin Xian's nephew is really talented, and he answered in the blink of an eye." Liu Jiangbai stroked his beard happily and laughed.

Duan Wang bowed slightly, he had completely believed Lin Mu, and Liu Rumian had a fine light in his eyes, full of reverence for Lin Mu.

Bachelor Chang couldn't calm down anymore, he said, "Still... And one last question, let me ask you a group of soldiers, three people in a group of two people, a group of five people more than three people, a group of seven people more than four people, how many soldiers in this team at least? ”

"Fifty-three." Lin Mu answered in an instant, this question is actually just a division problem, and Chang Bachelor wants the minimum number, so he doesn't need to start from a group of three and a group of five, he only needs to meet the minimum number of a group of seven and four, and seven and seven and four are not fifty-three? This figure is also in line with the previous conditions.

"Young master, you are really a Wenqu star!" Zhang Yang didn't understand a question, but he knew that his young master was very powerful, he came behind Lin Mu in three steps, pinched his shoulders and beat his back diligently, and said provocatively to Master Chang: "What else is the question, you let the horse come!" ”

Chang Bachelor's face was as dead as ashes, and the hand behind his back trembled slightly, and he felt that he was going to lose his wife and soldiers this time.

Sure enough, Lin Mu said at this time: "It's not rude to come, why don't you ask a question from Lin?" ”

"It's great." Duanwang naturally agreed, Lin Mu's talent and learning didn't need to be said, and he also intended to embarrass Master Chang, and the rest of him regarded himself as his teacher all day long.

Bachelor Chang's mind turned sharply, he understood that he would definitely not be able to answer Lin Mu's question, and quibbled: "Your Highness, the lower official is reading a subset of scriptures and history, and he is not familiar with Western studies. ”

Liu Jiangbai quietly told Lin Mu the identity of this person at this time, Lin Mu was surprised, and said: "Chang Shi said this is wrong, just now all the questions you come up with are from the scriptures, this is not Western learning, but it is the same as the mathematics in Western learning, the two are no different, in fact, in Lin's opinion, many academics in Western studies have been in ancient China, but they are all regarded as miscellaneous studies, and the Kaike scholars only focus on the subset of scriptures and history, not miscellaneous studies, which has led to the fact that the Chinese Dynasty is too far behind the West. ”

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Mohists involved physical phenomena such as the imaging of small holes, and also had a simple explanation of mechanics.
