Liu Xin turned around and said, "This time the angel may have any concerns, so he drove lightly and did not come to Chengdu City with great fanfare, so you didn't hear the news of the angel." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

After Liu Xin finished speaking, his attention was on Qin Mi's side, the young man with a confident face, Zhuge Zhan.

Looking at his face, Zhuge Zhan should be eleven or twelve years old, but he is already seven feet tall, with starry eyebrows and sword eyes, and an excellent temperament.

Liu Xin couldn't help but sigh in his heart, no wonder Zhuge Liang would say that his son was very precocious, but seeing Zhuge Zhan's confident and even proud look, Liu Xin felt that he should have guessed why Zhuge Zhan in history was so young, it may not be good.

Zhuge Zhan's life trajectory should be similar to "Fang Zhongyong", he has been a genius since he was a child, and his father is Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu, and the people around him flattered Zhuge Zhan in order to please Zhuge Liang, causing Zhuge Zhan to be a little self-righteous, blindly confident, and even blind to no one, thus wasting his own potential, and finally could only become a second-rate strategist.

But fortunately, it was not Zhuge Zhan who was already an adult who was summoned to Liu Xin, but a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy Zhuge Zhan.

Although it seems that Zhuge Zhan began to be in charge of the accounts of the Mianzhu Qin family at such a young age, and there are obviously signs of arrogance, Liu Xin believes that he can "train" Zhuge Zhan well, so that he can explore his own potential, and it is entirely possible to become a first-class strategist.

Thinking of this, Liu Xin smiled and said to Qin Mi: "Ziyi, this is the Zhuge Siyuan you said, he looks a little young." ”

Qin Mi nodded with a smile, pulled Zhuge Zhan to his side, and said to Liu Xin: "Lord, don't look at Brother Siyuan is only twelve years old now, he is now a child who has been reading the Four Books and Five Classics, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is recognized as the first prodigy in Mianzhu, and Brother Siyuan is quick to think, and has the ability to do mental arithmetic with one hand, even if he has been an old account keeper in my family for more than 30 years, he is ashamed of himself, so he will be in charge of my family's account work." ”

Zhuge Zhan on the side listened to Qin Mi's praise, and his face became more and more proud.

Liu Xin smiled, but his brows furrowed slightly, it seemed that it was really as he thought, Zhuge Zhan had been living in a touted environment.

However, Liu Xin had already figured out how to beat Zhuge Zhan.

Liu Xin first beckoned everyone to sit down, and then said to Zhuge Zhan with a smile: "Siyuan, you don't mind if I test you, right?" ”

Zhuge Zhan nodded with a smile, and said confidently: "That's how it should be, now that I'm new here, I should also show my worth, otherwise I won't have the face to serve under the lord." ”

Liu Xin smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll ask you first, what you are most confident in is that aspect." ”

Only by striking him in Zhuge Zhan's most confident aspect can Liu Xin convince Zhuge Zhan to accept the "training".

When Zhuge Zhan heard this, he felt that Liu Xin was because of his young age and Qin Mi's recommendation, so he chose to release water to himself, and he was a little unconvinced, feeling that Liu Xin was looking down on himself.

Zhuge Zhan thought of this, and arched his hand and said: "Please forgive me for being blunt, I am proficient in four books and five classics, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, astronomy and geography, and I also know a little bit about arithmetic, and I dare to call Yizhou the first in arithmetic, so I also ask the lord to choose the subject that is tested below." ”

Liu Xin nodded, he didn't expect Zhuge Zhan to be so proud and confident, but as the saying goes, the higher you stand, the worse you fall, Zhuge Zhan has raised himself to such a point, so don't blame Liu Xin for getting off his black feet.

Since Zhuge Zhan claims to be the first in arithmetic in Yizhou, then Liu Xin has a question: "Then I will come up with an arithmetic problem to test you, Siyuan, you can listen well, now there is a caravan transporting goods to Chengdu, the caravan has a total of twenty-one carriages, each carriage is loaded with goods worth two hundred and twenty-two taels of gold, may I ask how many taels of gold worth this caravan has brought in total." ”

Liu Xin's question is actually a very simple multiplication and arithmetic problem, and in modern times, you can find a senior primary school student and get the answer in less than half a minute.

However, in the Han Dynasty, although as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, simple multiplication formulas appeared, but they were limited to single-digit multiplication, and the arithmetic method in the Qin and Han dynasties was basically based on arithmetic, and there was no clear concept of multiplication.

Therefore, Liu Xin's two-digit multiplication three-digit arithmetic problem made Zhuge Zhan frown, although his mental arithmetic ability is very outstanding, but Liu Xin's question is obviously "out of line".

Zhuge Zhan sat silently on the side, muttering something softly, his face becoming more and more entangled.

At this time, a subordinate of the Huang Mansion came to the door and told Liu Xin that Huang Mei had something to invite and was waiting in the living room.

Liu Xin smiled at Zhuge Zhan and said: "Ziyi, Siyuan, it seems that the angel has come, I will go to the living room with Zixing first, but I still have an arithmetic problem, I don't know if Siyuan is interested in solving it?" ”

Zhuge Zhan frowned, now Liu Xin's first question, he only found a little eyebrows, and looking at Liu Xin's appearance, the second question is probably much more difficult than the first question.

Although Zhuge Zhan is confident, he is not arrogant.

Zhuge Zhan shook his head and said seriously: "The first question of the lord is enough for me to think about it for a while, and now I have another question, I'm afraid I won't be able to solve it before the lord comes back, so the lord doesn't need to tell me about this second question for the time being." ”

Liu Xin smiled and nodded, it seems that Zhuge Zhan is still self-aware, not blindly arrogant, and has the possibility of successful "training".

So Liu Xin beckoned Long Zhi and said to Qin Mi: "Ziyi, then you can help me accompany Siyuan, if Siyuan needs to be calculated, you can tell your subordinates." ”

After speaking, Liu Xin left the room with Long Zhi and went to the living room of the Huang Mansion.

On the way, Liu Xin had to sigh at the difference of the times, Zhuge Zhan's intelligence level is definitely not inferior to that of the graduate students of Peking University and Tsinghua University, but limited by the times, limited by the difference in mathematical thinking, and the different ways of solving problems, Zhuge Zhan was trapped in a simple multiplication problem.

However, Liu Xin regretted that the second question that he finally came up with was probably not a chance to come up with it.

ps: The first shift will be delivered, the second shift should be around four o'clock, and the third shift will be around nine o'clock.
