Chapter 421: It's man-made

"Steward Zheng said that he could only stay in Meilong Town for three days at most, but these two chess books are so thick, it is impossible to copy them in three days, and he has to break up the chess games and bind them together with other chess games, even if he doesn't eat or drink, it's too late to work day and night." Tan Xiaotian said - the method is a good way, but the time is too late, the two chess books add up to three or four hundred pages, if the text alone is better, the problem is that the chess games account for at least seventy percent of the content, the difficulty of copying is much higher than a simple copy, a little negligence may mark the wrong position, the so-called difference is a millimeter, a thousand miles wrong, for Go, a difference in order may lead to completely opposite results, it is really sloppy.

"Uh, this is really a problem", the brows that had just been opened frowned again, Qiu Ju's head hurt - Tan Xiaotian returned to his hometown to visit relatives after two years, and he will leave for the capital to learn chess in a few days, this time he is farther away than Yangzhou, and if he wants to come back, it will take at least five or six or even ten years later, so the three days in Meilong Town must be very busy, Liu Wenxiong, Yuan Lang, and Tian Dayi all need to visit, this is a etiquette rule, and they are not at all conscious, as for other neighbors, In this way, it is very difficult to expect how much time children can spare to copy chess scores, and to copy chess games by themselves, not to mention whether it will arouse the suspicion of others, it is a miracle to be able to copy half of them in three days, as for Lin Lao Wu and his apprentices, they can't count on it at all, clumsy, holding a pen is heavier than holding a hammer, and writing a word is about the size of a palm, let them copy the chess score, how many pieces of paper are enough?

"Well, why don't you ask Teacher Yuan for help?" Tan Xiaotian also tried his best to think of a way, there are not many people in Meilong Town who are capable and trustworthy in this matter, so he thought about it. I can only invite Yuan Lang.

"Teacher Yuan? , Alas, with Mr. Yuan's character and style, you can please, even if he doesn't want to help, he won't tell others about things, the problem is that he is old, and he has been sick, not to mention whether he has the physical strength to do such a hard thing as copying chess games, even if there is, we can't bear to let him be so tired. Shaking his head, Qiu Ju said--copying things is a very monotonous and boring thing. It takes a lot of patience and physical effort, so there are people who practice Buddhism to copy Buddhist scriptures to cultivate their minds and temper their will, they are Tan Xiaotian's aunt, and they can pay regardless of gains and losses for the future of children, but what about Teacher Yuan? Copying hundreds of pages of chess in three days, no one in the right year may be able to afford it, let alone an old man who is close to the age of sixteen and has been in poor health? I'm afraid it's been two days, and the chess game hasn't been copied yet. People have already fallen, and such a thing cannot be done by any person with a conscience.

"Auntie, you didn't understand what I meant. I mean asking Mr. Yuan to help, not asking Mr. Yuan to copy it himself. Tan Xiaotian explained.

"Didn't you ask him to help with the copying? How can that help? Qiu Ju was puzzled. This nephew is a big ghost, and his brain turns faster than many adults at a young age, and his own thinking can't catch up.

"One fence with three piles, one hero with three gangs. The so-called crowd of people collecting firewood and wanting to copy these hundreds of pages of chess scores in three days is not something that one or two people can do at all. So there must be more people to help, just imagine, if the person who copied the chess game is not one but ten people, then the task spread to one person's head is only thirty or forty pages, if it is twenty people, then the task spread to one person's head is ten or twenty pages, so that it only takes a day at most to complete the copying, is this the truth? Tan Xiaotian analyzed to Qiu Ju.

"The truth is naturally this truth, everyone knows this, the problem is that we have to re-copy the chess game in order not to let these two chess games be known by others, you find so many people to help, where to talk about confidentiality? What's the difference between that and ringing a gong in the street and shouting, 'I've got a treasure here'? Qiu Ju shook her head and smiled bitterly, and said in her heart, children are children at the bottom, thinking about things too whimsically, taking care of the head and tail, and thinking too much.

"Hehe, that's why I have to ask Teacher Yuan for help." Tan Xiaotian smiled proudly, obviously Qiu Ju's concern was already in his calculations.

"Uh, then tell me, how can Mr. Yuan solve the problem of confidentiality?" The child's self-confidence made Qiu Ju's heart bottomless.

"Teacher Yuan can copy the task of chess scores as homework for students to do, copying chess scores does not need much good calligraphy skills, can do the handwriting neatly, the volume is clean, except for a few children who are too young, at least ten students in the end of learning can meet the standard, Teacher Yuan assigned the homework, they will definitely complete it unconditionally, although the speed of children's copying is not as good as adults, but can not stand the strength of the number of people, no matter how bad, two days will definitely be copied. As for the issue of confidentiality, as long as one page is copied and one page is withdrawn, the original book is not allowed to leave the classroom, it is estimated that few people have the ability to write down the things that have only been copied once, especially the chess games in it - there is the ability to read it once and you can memorize it in your heart, and after an hour or two, you can still write it silently, and its talent in Go will never be worse than mine, and if you can really meet such a genius, it is the will of God, and we can only admit it, and everyone is copied separately, and the content copied by everyone is scattered, It's hard to get on the same number, after that, even if these students tell the adults at home about copying chess scores, the adults only think that it is the homework assigned by Teacher Yuan, and they won't take it to heart, even if some people find Teacher Yuan to understand the situation, Teacher Yuan is also easy to find a reasonable reason to explain, after all, Teacher Yuan likes to play Go The town is well known, and the family has collected a lot of chess game information, and occasionally let the students they teach help to transcribe and copy, which is also very easy to understand. Tan Xiaotian said with a smile.

"Well, in this way, the feasibility of this method is still very high, if it can take two days to complete the chess book, and the remaining one day to reassemble the chess book, I can do it alone." After carefully scrutinizing what Tan Xiaotian said, Qiu Ju approved this plan, and it was not difficult to persuade him to help with Yuan Lang's favor for Tan Xiaotian. (To be continued......)
