Chapter 49: The Second Question, the Second Method
Just before Li Tianyu and the others stood up, Qin Yulong, who was beside Qin Yuyan, pointed out to his sister the sons with face masks he had seen before. And Qin Yuyan had secretly looked at the two of them before, but when she looked at the two, she found that the two were lying on the table, and she couldn't see the true face of the two of them at all. When I saw that there was a young man of the same age as his younger brother who was also lying on the table, and there was only one person left who looked like a family member, I thought that the two of them were just coming to join in the fun, so I didn't care much about it. And now his father has left this decision to himself, maybe this is the only chance he can make the decision tonight.
"Since Daddy said before that all the sons who are here tonight will have a chance, then they should also have this opportunity, so I allowed them." Qin Yuyan remembered that she wanted to cooperate with her father and wronged herself tonight, so she couldn't do anything to wronged others because of one of her own decisions, so she also agreed to our two brothers with faces.
In fact, our old man Qin, who was present at this time, had already seen in his heart that these two sons with masks were not like simple characters. Maybe everyone present was still confused by the faces of our "Xie Wendong" and "Chen Haonan", but Master Qin had already seen that the clothes and accessories on Li Tianyu and Chen Youliang were not like ordinary people could wear. After all, you can't wear those good clothes as long as you have money, especially those rich businessmen who have made a fortune in business. Of course, today, on the home of the Qin family's painting boat, it is the Qin family who is holding a big ceremony, which is an exception. And after he saw that there was another person who looked like a subordinate next to him, he deepened his judgment even more, but it was a pity that he couldn't recognize that our Chen Sheng was wearing the uniform of the Chen family of Yangzhou Governor. The people present would not have thought of this, because basically the people who came to the Qin family's painting boat were the sons of some wealthy families in the canal area, and it is estimated that even if Li Tianyu and Chen Youliang tell their real names, except for Xiao Lori, others may be at a loss, although this possibility will not be very high. Now not to mention some unknown juniors such as "Xie Wendong" and "Chen Haonan".
"Okay, please also ask the sons who are going to be assessed by my little girl to move to the place where Qin is standing."
So everyone present walked towards the place where Master Qin was standing, of course, this also includes our "Gongzi Xie" and "Gongzi Chen". However, what made Li Tianyu wonder was that there were still many people who had confessed to this Qin master and reported their names before this, but in the end, there were few people standing here. Except for him, Chen Youliang and that Ge Gongzi, there were only four or five "sons" who did not belong to the first three rows standing here. And the two sons who made a lot of trouble before are just sitting on the spot and watching the live broadcast above.
"Is there any other son who wants to come up to accept the assessment of the little girl?" Seeing that the number of people who came up did not reach the number of people who had signed up before, Old Master Qin asked again, but there was not much surprise in his tone.
"So, that's what begins."
After seeing that there were no other sons coming up, Master Qin also announced the start. And at this moment, the one who stood closest to Qin Yuyan's little Lori was that Ge Gongzi, but Li Tianyu and Chen Youliang stood on the other side of the farthest away from Xiao Lori. For they had been the last two people to arrive when they had moved from the most remote corners of the present. However, the two of them attracted the attention of basically everyone present, because they were wearing a unique protective cover on their heads!
"Hello ladies and gentlemen! The first question of the little girl is a very simple life knowledge question. May I ask you, ladies and gentlemen, is it five catties and two taels of stone or five catties and three taels of cotton? But seeing our Qin Yuyan and Xiao Lori, under the attention of everyone, she said such a topic that made the people present drop their contact lenses.
And Chen Youliang almost laughed instantly after listening to Xiao Lori's question. Anyway, I had heard Tianyu say this question before, and it was the last time he and Tianyu went to the Slender West Lake, and it was the first time I saw the little Lori. saw that the sons who were still sitting in the guest seat were already whispering to each other.
"Needless to say, Miss Qin, of course it's a heavy stone. Although it was only a tael off, the stone itself was much heavier than the cotton. For the two of them of the same five catties, the stone must be much heavier than the cotton, so in the end it should be heavier than the stone. But I saw one of the sons standing in this row to be reviewed, and said while reasoning. And there are many people in the guest area at the bottom who acquiesced.
"Brother Sheng, do you think this weighs five catties and two taels of stone, or five catties and three taels of cotton?"
"This, back to the little young man, it should be that stone heavy, right?"
"Oh, is it? I'm afraid Brother Tian and Brother Liang won't think like this! Xiao Hao looked at Brother Tian and Brother Liang who were standing in front of him and said.
"Why?"
"Because I don't think they're going to lose on this first question!"
"Dare to ask how many sons also think that this stone is heavy, please raise your hand and let the little girl take a look." Qin Yuyan and Xiao Lori asked when they saw that these sons were still talking about the issue of stones and cotton in a whisper.
But I saw that the sons in that row basically all raised their hands, except for Li Tianyu and Chen Youliang and the Ge Gongzi on the other side, there were only two sons left who did not raise their hands.
"It's a pity, the little girl, please go back first and then sit down and rest for a while."
As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately heard the sound outside the strings, and it seemed that these sons who raised their hands had all answered wrong. In other words, they will never have the opportunity to successfully hold hands with this young lady of the Qin family tonight.
"Look, Brother Sheng, these sons don't have a chance."
"The little boy is wise! Small admiration. ”
"So the rest of the sons think that this cotton is heavier than stone? Or does some boy think that this stone is as heavy as cotton? But seeing that Qin Yuyan's little Lori had a ghostly look on her face at the moment, she asked the rest of the sons. And after hearing Qin Yuyan say this, the other sons sighed on a larger scale. What's the situation with this little girl? It's also a game of psychological warfare. Isn't all this a conspiracy arranged by Master Qin? I'm not afraid that I will accidentally let Master Qin's conspiracy miscalculate.
After listening to Qin Yuyan's words, none of the remaining five sons moved. It seems that they are all a group of sons with strong beliefs, and at least their position on this issue is extremely firm.
"Well, the little girl congratulates you on successfully passing this question. If you are asked to transport ten bags of merchant salt now, but the officials at the canal are only allowed to transport eight bags of merchant salt, what will the sons do to evade the inspection of these officials and transport all the ten bags of merchant salt. Please also ask all the sons present not to care, the little girl just asked the sons to review this, and had no other intentions. But seeing this, Qin Yuyan's little Lori said such a problem that is closely related to the family's career and is a bit of a violation of the law. In fact, these topics were placed by the old man Qin before, because the old man Qin thought that most of the sons of the Qin family's painting boat tonight knew the Qin family abnormally, and they wanted to occupy his daughter and even the Qin family with ulterior motives, although his own purpose was the same. So it was up to his daughter to ask this question in person, so that it was logical and successfully avoided suspicion. It's just that he did a lot of calculations, but he didn't calculate that Li Tianyu and Chen Youliang would come to board the painting boat tonight, and now they are standing here wearing Facebook masks to be reviewed.
Although the sons present have long been tacitly aware of these Qin family affairs, they have become secrets that cannot be said in the canal area. But now I was a little surprised to hear this Qin Yuyan say it in public. It seems that this Qin family's recruitment of a son-in-law this time is really not a joke, maybe they really took this Qin family as a bet.
But after hearing Miss Qin's question, the remaining five sons present already appeared in a tangled and helpless look with their brows furrowed and shaking their heads again and again. It was the two sons standing in the middle, after all, they were scholars, and they naturally knew nothing about these opportunistic things, and even despised them very much, and we couldn't see the expressions on Li Tianyu and Chen Youliang's faces, because their faces were already covered with a mask of faces. But that Ge Gongzi seemed extremely calm after listening to Qin Yuyan's question, and even calmed down a little distracted.
"Presumably, this question of this Qin family girl was ordered by his father in advance, but I don't know what the purpose of his question is? Are you trying to test me? Hmph, then I'll hold my ground for now, but I'll see if anyone dares to answer this question. However, there are so many people here tonight, and there are not a few people who are standing on the same line with me, if he can really marry this Qin family girl in the end, he will definitely not be able to play tricks, so after I successfully enter the Qin Mansion, I want to see who is the winner? "Our Young Master Ge said like this in his heart.
"Miss Qin, this question is difficult, and I am ashamed that I can't answer it."
"Miss Qin, I also gave up below."
saw that the two sons in the middle of the field suddenly said to Qin Yuyan, it seemed that they were planning to give up on their own initiative. Now our Li Tianyu is a little puzzled, hey, I didn't expect that this so-called assessment is just such a few simple questions, what kind of problem does Lao Tzu think is to challenge the advanced intelligence of IQ and practice it? It's noisy, it's too disappointing for Lao Tzu, and I've seen a lot of masterpieces in terms of crossing before, Yaxingda, now, it's all fucking in vain, reality is reality after all, and it's still far from the book.
"Then may I ask if there is still a son who wants to give up? If not, ask the sons to say their own answers within a stick of incense. Qin Yuyan saw that this review was about to end, so she also took the ultimatum at this moment, because she didn't want to let her birthday gift last even a second longer.
"No need, this question is too simple, let me say two of the answers on behalf of my two brothers." Our Li Tianyu has automatically emerged the answer in his mind since the little Lori just finished reading the question, and now after listening to this little Lori say this, he can't bear to wait. Besides, although it's a good thing to save this little Lori tonight, you can't spend too much time on yourself, resulting in me being searched by the whole city tomorrow again.
"Oh? Then I asked this boy to come and tell me the answer. After hearing Li Tianyu say this, our little Lori also stared at his face curiously, uh, staring at his face, only to feel that this felt a little familiar to herself, and just listening to his voice also had a strange and familiar feeling.
"It's simple. One way to do this is to take a larger piece of brown paper and wrap the two bags of salt tightly and place them on the bottom of the boat, so that the two bags of salt can be spared. And the second method is a bit more technical, oh, I mean, it's a bit more complicated, we can prepare a few large jars of water on that boat in advance, and then pour all the two bags of salt into the clear water of those large jars, until all the salt grains are dissolved in the water, and then we can successfully hide from the world again. After docking, you can transport the brine back from the large jars, and then put it in a large cauldron, and after boiling all the water in it, all that is left is the salt blocks. This method is foolproof. "Troublesome, the first way is the traditional "parallel import" said, fortunately Lao Tzu in the later generations when buying parallel goods mobile phones had a little research on this aspect. And the second method is what Lao Tzu thought of in combination with the physical chemistry knowledge he had learned, and I don't know if these people present can fully understand it.
"Isn't it? The second method is too dangerous, isn't it? If you can't get the salt back in the end, won't you lose two bags of salt in vain? ”
"That's right, both bags of salt are all dissolved in water, how can they all be boiled back, I think it's good to be able to boil back one bag."
"Is this called foolproof? I think this is called self-severing the arm, and self-abandoning martial arts is almost the same. ”
………………
But after listening to Li Tianyu's second method, the sons present expressed their opinions one by one, and made various negative comments on Li Tianyu's method. And that Ge Gongzi stood there all the time without looking at him, just sneering at the face boy who had just finished speaking.
"If you think that you are deceiving your sons and challenging your sons' IQ, then you can go home and try it for yourself, of course, if the conditions allow, you can also demonstrate it to you on the spot." It's hard for me to explain too much to you feudal socialists who haven't studied mathematics, physics and chemistry, and it's all tears and saliva when you talk too much. Fortunately, Lao Tzu has not challenged your beliefs, otherwise you might have been tied up like Copernicus and thrown into the river to feed the sharks. Lion poop is better than bear poop, and it is better than cow dung.
"Come on, bring me a spoonful of salt and a teapot." But seeing that the old man Qin, who had not spoken for a long time and was just watching from the sidelines, after listening to the words of this face painter, he couldn't wait to give an order like this. After all, it is related to the welfare of his Qin family, and it is still very necessary to figure out this matter.
So, after this old man Qin had just given the order, a housekeeper took a teapot and a spoon and walked towards Li Tianyu.
Banana, you Barra, Lao Tzu just talked to you casually, politely, but I didn't expect to really ask Lao Tzu to demonstrate it live. If I knew that this was the case, Lao Tzu wouldn't have said that sentence just now. Troublesome, although according to the theory in the textbook, this should work, but I don't know that the textbooks of the Eleventh Five-Year Plan of that era are still suitable for the current Tang Dynasty of "Zhenguan Governance"?
"Qin also asked the son to demonstrate Yu Qin and all the sons present to have a look!" saw that Master Qin also walked to Li Tianyu's side, and sent someone to bring an oil lamp, and then placed it on an empty desk between the two empty seats in the first row.
Seeing this, Li Tianyu had no choice but to bite the bullet, but saw that the salt contained in the spoon was basically flush with the edge of the spoon. Li Tianyu secretly cursed the person who put the salt in his heart, then took a spoon and poured all the salt into the teapot, and finally did not forget to take the spoon and stir it clockwise ten times in the teapot, and then stirred ten times counterclockwise. It's noisy, and the teapot seems to be brewing tea just now? This Master Qin is really worthy of me.
"Please give Master Qin a fire!" Li Tianyu saw that this oil lamp was a little different from the one used at home, at least the smell was much stronger than the lamp oil at home, not to mention this unique shape. However, I have never smelled this smell in this hall, and it seems that it is very likely that this is used for the lights outside the Qin family's painting boat. Yaxingda, I hope your Qin family's lamp oil can give some strength!
So under the attention of all the people present, our old man Qin lit the oil lamp. However, the flame of the oil lamp was not bright, but small and dim, and there was a crackling sound. Yaxingda, in other words, this old man Qin is also worthy of Lao Tzu, right?!
