Chapter 8 Math?

However, three seconds later, Su Baiyi's feeling of ice and fire disappeared in an instant.

Although the woman's eyes were looking in this direction, she didn't seem to be looking at herself.

Could it be that you are looking at Yang Juan?

Sure enough, the woman spoke, and her voice was cold and full of absolute majesty: "Yang Juan, why did you come here, who asked you to come?" Then he spoke, turned his head and glanced at the audience again: "Ye Gongzi, I remember that the invitation card was returned to Ye Gongzi." ”

"Hey, hey!" Yang Juan licked his face and smiled at the woman: "Auntie, Pingzhi said that he couldn't come to his house because of something, so he gave me the invitation, so, hehe, so I came over!" ”

"Nonsense, it's nonsense!" The woman's face became more and more pale, but finally she sighed secretly: "Forget it......"

After Su Baiyi heard this, he couldn't help but greet in his heart: Why is this special aunt, didn't you come through the back door? You're numb......

"Sit down, everybody!"

The woman sat down first on the throne.

Everyone went to salute in turn, and even Yu Mingyu put away the arrogance just now.

"We have nine young masters and young ladies in the Shen Mansion this year, according to the past, choose a gentleman from among you to learn for them, of course, since it is a selection, it is naturally a merit-based recruitment, you don't have to worry, the assessment process is extremely fair, everyone can see it, there will be no favoritism!"

As he spoke, he glanced at Yang Juan, and seemed to tell everyone: You don't have to worry that he is my nephew, I will favor him, this will never exist.

"After my father, Wen Duangong (Shen Li's name Wenduan) sent a scholar, he called on the counties of Defu to raise funds to build the Yellow River embankment, and since the completion of the embankment, my Henan prefectures and counties have been spared floods several times. My father benefited the township, and also won the reputation of the descendants of my Shen family. ”

"Lord Cabinet has benefited Sangzi, and I dare not forget the slightest bit of junior generation!" Yu Mingyu gave up his hand and sent flattering words in time.

When the woman heard that Yu Mingyu admired his father so much, her face suddenly softened a lot, and she glanced at Yu Mingyu herself: "What Yu said is very true, thank you for being a concubine here!" ”

Turning his head and saying: "Therefore, the descendants of my Shen family take this as an example, both men and women always remember Shen Di and the merits of Wenduan Gong to Guide Mansion." When the embankment was built, the most difficult thing was to find people who were proficient in mathematics, and my father also respected people who were proficient in mathematics, so future generations did not dare to forget, and every time they read a book, they would not dare to forget mathematics. ”

"Moreover, mathematics is one of the six arts of a gentleman as Confucius said, and it is compulsory for a gentleman.

The six arts of a gentleman, etiquette, music, archery, royalty, calligraphy, and mathematics, this woman is not bad at what she said, but if you take the math test, hehe!

Su Baiyi began to tremble in the depths of his heart!

Although he was worth tens of billions in his previous life, he was really good at studying when he was a student.

Su Baiyi remembered that at that time, he was a little slack in reading, and the old man beat people with his old nose, but now that he thinks about it, his father still has the foresight and knows that he has to travel through ancient times, here, knowledge is power, great power.

So, how can you ancients surpass me in mathematics?

Just kidding!

"Number ......"

When they heard the first assessment of mathematics, Huang Shenghong and Jiang Yuan were stunned in an instant, and even Yang Juan was stunned! Only Yu Mingyu smiled slightly, as if he was determined to win.

"Test papers!" The woman waved her hand at the maid regardless of the performance of several people.

Then, the maid divided the test paper into five parts and distributed them to several people. In addition to the test papers, there are also pen and ink and manuscript paper!

"There are five questions of mathematics, the time is an hour, whoever calculates the fastest, the most correct answers is considered a victory, and only the top two in the first round of assessment will enter the next round of assessment!"

"Take only two ......"

Before Yang Juan finished speaking, he was interrupted by his aunt: "Don't speak." ”

Forehead......

Send the roll and do the question!

Su Baiyi picked up the pen and looked at it, first of all, he roughly skimmed through the entire test paper, this is a good habit he kept in his previous life, every time he does the test paper, he must first read the entire test paper.

Five questions, the questions are handwritten in neat small letters, and they are written by a woman at a glance!

After Su Baiyi finished reading the entire test paper, he took a deep breath and his eyes fell on the first question.

The first question tests the Pythagorean theorem: there is a hook of six feet, a strand of seven feet, how many strings are asked?

The right-angled sides of the triangle are six feet and seven feet respectively, ask how long is the hypotenuse?

It's so simple, junior high school students can count.

It's a bit of a hassle to open a root, but it's not that difficult.

After three minutes, Su Baiyi waved his pen and wrote on it neatly: The string is nine feet two inches and one minute and nine centimeters and five millimeters.

Get!

Question 2!

The second question is a problem about the area and volume of a circle, which roughly means a circular field with a diameter of 100 steps, and how many acres is there in this field?

Quite simply, the area of a circle is equal to the square of pi multiplied by the radius, and one mu in the Ming Dynasty was two hundred and forty steps.

Su Baiyi calculated a little, and came to the conclusion without even checking the calculation on the manuscript paper: the field is 32 acres and 7 cents and 3 centimeters.

Next, there is the third question.

The third question is a little troublesome, it is a problem of eating. The approximate meaning is: there is a woman who has guests washing dishes by the river, and the passer-by asks her how many guests have come to her house, and she says that two guests share a rice bowl, three guests share a soup bowl, and four guests share a vegetable bowl, which is exactly sixty-five bowls, and asks her how many guests have come to her house?

Aren't your guests afraid of infectious diseases?

Su Baiyi, who was slightly clean, felt a faint nausea after seeing this question, but he had to continue to do it.

In ancient times, this problem may not be able to come up with it for a long time, but if there is a formula in the later generations, it is just a unary equation, and it will not take more than two minutes to list the equations.

Su Baiyi counted on the manuscript paper and came to the conclusion: There are sixty guests!

Nima, you have a lot of relatives! Will it make your family poor in one go?

About ten minutes passed, and I came to the fourth question.

The fourth and third questions are the same type of questions, and there is nothing special about the unary equation, the only difference is that the last time was washing dishes, and this time it was just eating steamed buns.

The more difficult question is the fifth question!

The meaning of the fifth question is as follows: The land in the second question is dug down an average of 10 steps, and the excavated soil is used to fill the embankment, which is 10 steps wide at the top, 20 steps wide at the bottom, and 5 steps high.

This question is naturally extremely simple for Su Baiyi, but for the ancients, it is a bit difficult.

First of all, the area of the second circle should be calculated, and secondly, the area of the trapezoid should be calculated, which is the key.

Su Baiyi scribbled on the manuscript paper, and it took about five minutes to come up with the correct answer: one thousand and forty-seven steps and one foot.

The Ming Dynasty is equivalent to 1.2 meters in later generations, and the decimal ruler is almost one foot.

Okay, all five questions are done, and it takes about twenty minutes to add up to the front and back, of course, in view of the good exam habits in the previous life, check it again, and after making sure that it is correct, hand in the paper!

Su Baiyi picked up his roll and stood up.

"What? Sit well, no standing, no looking left and right during the assessment! The woman who was invigilated by the Shen Mansion looked at Su Baiyi's performance, and her face was a little disgusted.

Yu Mingyu, who was doing the question, raised his head, glanced at him, then smiled deeply, lowered his head and continued to do the question.

Huang Shenghong and Jiang Yuan didn't have time to pay attention to him, but Yang Juan squeezed his eyebrows at him and motioned for him to sit down quickly.

However, Su Baiyi just gently picked up the roll on the seat, and then sent it to the woman, saying, "The student has finished it!" ”

What......

The examiner was stunned at this time, she thought that Su Baiyi was making a big joke.

It's done, how is it possible, it's only less than half a pillar of incense.

And Jiang Yuan and Huang Shenghong, who were sitting in their seats and were originally concentrating on the question, suddenly raised their heads, and cold sweat broke out on their faces.

Yang Juan was so shocked that he threw all the brushes on the ground, which attracted his aunt's sideways glance.

Yu Mingyu turned pale and blurted out directly: "Impossible!" ”

Of course it can't be, I just finished the first question of the first case, and you answered all five questions, how is it possible?

"No noise!" The woman glared at Yu Mingyu fiercely, reached out to take the test paper in Su Baiyi's hand, frowned and glanced at it, and sure enough, she finished answering.

As for whether the answer was right or wrong, she didn't know, and she would have to go back and ask Miss later.

The "careless" woman glanced at Su Baiyi, reached out and picked up a pen, wrote his name on Su Baiyi's test paper, and said, "Don't write your name, if you are a scholar, you will wait to fall off the list!" ”

Su Baiyi was embarrassed, and at the same time thanked her, and when she looked at this woman again, she suddenly felt that her face looked much better, and she was also muttering in her heart: The Shen family is really a big family, this background is deep, and a woman's handwriting is so beautiful.

"Get back to your seat and sit down and wait!"

Su Baiyi could only wait, and then watched as his test paper was handed over to the maid, who went out with the test paper, and didn't know who to look for.

After staying up like this for another hour, it was finally time for everyone to hand over the test papers to the examiners.

The examiner took the paper and said, "You all wait, the results will come out later!" After speaking, he left with the maid in person.

……

"Brother Mingyu, how is it?" Jiang Yuan looked at Yu Mingyu and asked flatteringly.

"Not ideal!" Yu Mingyu frowned, "I will do the first question, but unfortunately it is too slow, it took a stick of incense to finish, and I just understand the second question, so I can calculate it in time, but unfortunately I didn't figure out how many steamed buns and bowls I pondered for a long time for the third and fourth questions?" Question 5 should be able to pass! ”

"Alas!" Jiang Yuan sighed: "I answered the first question, I think there should be no hope!" ”

Huang Shenghong was also depressed, he was worse than Jiang Yuan, he had never set foot in mathematics, and he couldn't answer a single question, and almost all the answers written on it were based on fate.

Yang Juan also sighed and said, "I'm not as good as Mingyu, but I made the third and fourth questions, and I can't do the rest." ”

Su Baiyi was shocked, Yang Juan is really smart.

The first and second questions and even the fifth question are all basic questions of mathematics, and the average ancients should be able to answer them as long as they have learned them, but this Yang roll can't be answered, which can only show that he has never set foot in mathematics.

But the third and fourth questions can be answered, and it is all up to wisdom and wisdom to ponder slowly.

Yang Juan is a smart person, at least he has good logical thinking.

"Brother Yang has never been exposed to mathematics?" Su Baiyi asked.

"yes, Mr. hasn't taught this thing either!" Yang Juan spread his hands, and then his eyes lit up: "Brother Su is talented, I handed in the paper in less than half a pillar of incense, I don't know how many questions are sure?" ”

"Hmph, pretending to be amazing!" Before Su Baiyi could answer, Yu Mingyu spoke: "There are five questions, even if my master holds the abacus, he has to calculate for a long time, and you can finish it in such a short time, there are only two possibilities!" ”

"You look down on people?" Yang Juan was about to roll up his sleeves at that time, I don't know why, when he saw Su Baiyi, he felt very kind, and when he saw Yu Mingyu, it was like going up and slapping him twice. Now that Yu Mingyu opened his mouth to slander Su Baiyi, he was naturally very angry in his heart.

"Hey......" Su Baiyi blocked Yang Juan and looked at Yu Mingyu: "Brother Yu is talented, then what are the two possibilities?" When he spoke, he seemed to be smiling, and in Yu Mingyu's eyes, he looked a little underwhelmed.

"First!" Yu Mingyu was still in that condescending posture, his nose was facing the sky, he stretched out his right hand and nodded to Su Baiyi and said: "You don't know how to pretend to understand at all, and you will hand in the paper in less than half a pillar of incense, which means that your answer is all blind." ”

"And the second?" Yang Juan asked.

"Second, if you know the question in advance, you can naturally make the answer in advance!"

The reason why Yu Mingyu is so sure is because he knows the difficulty of these math problems very well, and his mentor is a famous math master in Guide Mansion, who has studied math for decades, but even Mr. can not solve all the questions within half a pillar of incense.

What virtue can this surnamed Su have, and how can he solve it within half a pillar of incense?

Su Baiyi was also drunk, and he actually had a feeling of speechlessness for Yu Mingyu's explanation.

Is it possible to discuss with pigs whether a bowl of rice can be full or a bucket of rice can be satisfied?

"What? I was right in my words and have nothing to say? "Yu Mingyu is aggressive.

"Alas!" Su Baiyi spread his hands: "I was going to be looking to the bright moon, but the bright moon is full of ditches, and I don't bother to tell you!" ”

"Well said!" At this time, a clear voice came from outside the hall: "I was going to turn my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon was full of ditches." I didn't expect Su Gongzi to be hidden in the city, and he was still a great talent in mathematics! ”
