026. Count rice
He looked at Huo Yunqian from afar, and Huo Yunqian was still staring at the gate of the official office.
Not long after, a small group of people came out of it, Xu Huo glanced at it, and recognized that the burly man led by him was actually Hua Gaoyang, the governor of Kaizhou.
Xu Huo touched his chin, after so many years, Hua someone is still in Kaizhou, and it seems that he is living very comfortably.
Hua Gaoyang walked in front with a grin, looking a little displeased, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why did you ask us to send food over?" They are so big in Liangzhou, they came to our Kaizhou to borrow grain, so what do we eat in Kaizhou? β
The soldiers who followed behind all said yes again and again, echoing Hua Gaoyang's words.
Hua Gaoyang complained a lot, and at the end of the day, he didn't forget to "tsk" twice, "Huo San is still a chick in the end, so he shouldn't be a swollen face and a fat man to pick this big beam, and now he is still hanging up the war-free card, and when the emperor knows, he can't be sure what to do with him." β
The soldiers were silent this time.
Hua Gaoyang finished speaking proudly, and suddenly heard a string of applause, he followed the voice, and saw a girl in coarse cloth sitting on the tea stall not far in front of him.
Huo Yunqian clapped his hands, turned his head and looked at him with a smile, "Captain Hua said well, those who can lead the troops can live in it, and those who are not worthy of virtue should be released from class and let Xian." β
Her smile made her face, which was half covered by dirt and ash, also shine a little brighter.
Xu Huo saw it in secret, her brows furrowed, this girl was afraid that she was going to lie again.
Hua Gaoyang squinted his eyes and judged that this woman must be a stunning one.
He strode closer, looked Huo Yunqian up and down, and said with a smile: "The girl is so right, she and General Ben really have a heart, and it is really fate to meet today." β
Fate is a fart!
Huo Yunqian always had a fake smile on his face, "Du Wei said with a smile. It's just that the little woman is worried about her brother in Liangzhou, and now that the situation in Liangzhou is like this, the little woman is so easy to get here, but she is in a dilemma......"
Hua Gaoyang immediately sat down in front of her, and couldn't wait to say: "Don't go to Liangzhou, don't go home, how good is it to stay in our Kaizhou?" β
The soldiers next to him heard the meaning of their own peak, and they all came over to coax: "Yes, girl, just stay in Kaizhou, let's spend the best of the captains, and promise not to let you be wronged!" β
Huo Yun turned his head sideways and lowered his head slightly, looking very shy, "This ...... My brother and I depend on each other for our lives, whether we are dead or alive, I must see my brother to feel at ease. If my brother agrees, I'll ...... I can do anything. β
Xu Huo raised his hand to support his forehead, what is this?
This girl really lied and didn't hit the draft, she just opened her mouth and came, I don't know how Mrs. Feng would react when she heard it?
The soldiers looked at Hua Gaoyang with ambiguous eyes.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!" Hua Gaoyang laughed, feeling a little beautiful in her heart, this girl is quite good!
"Isn't it just going to Liangzhou, General Ben can send a few brothers to protect you in the past, it's absolutely no problem."
"Really?" Huo Yunqian twisted his body, seeing that Hua Gaoyang was a little flustered, "But...... But I still want to bring some rice, I am afraid that my brother and sister-in-law and my newborn nephew will starveβno more, no more, only a few of them. β
Hearing that he wanted to bring rice, Hua Gaoyang's face changed slightly, but when he heard that he only brought a few pieces, his expression relaxed, "Only a few pieces?" It seems like we're being too stingy. How much the girl wants, let's count it for you now. β
Huo Yunqian raised his head and looked at him with a smile, "Captain Hua did agree?" β
Hua Gaoyang nodded, "Of course I agreed!" β
Huo Yunqian got up and clenched his fists, "Then thank you Hua Duwei for my brother first!" As for how I'm going to count the metersβ"
She turned her head to look around, caught a glimpse of two old men playing chess under the tree, and stretched out her hand to point, "I want to be able to put it on the chessboard." β
Hua Gaoyang nodded, and immediately two soldiers went over, and couldn't help but snatch the chessboard of the two old men.
Looking at the chessboard that was only so big, Hua Gaoyang was proud, but he felt a little inexplicably sorry for this silly girl, "How much can this be put on?" β
Some people heard their conversation and gathered around curiously, and Xu Hui, who was originally standing in the distance, couldn't help but move his steps to see what tricks this girl was playing.
Huo Yunqian waved his hand at Hua Gaoyang, "I want Hua Duwei to put it like this: the first grid puts one grain of rice, the second grid puts two grains, the third grid puts four grains, and the fourth one ......."
"It's just double the previous one, right?" Hua Gaoyang interrupted her impatiently and beckoned to the back, "Bring a pound of rice here, let's have a good time." β
A soldier turned his head away.
Huo Yunqian looked at him, with a smile on his lips, but his voice slowly became cold, "Duwei, why don't we only put half of it, just take the side of the Chu River Han Realm - a total of thirty-two grids, you can slowly help me fill it up in this way." β
"Okay, okay, that's all the." Hua Gaoyang was aroused, and he didn't hear the change in her tone at all, and began to put rice on it with great interest, "I said that I will fill it for you, what's the point of halving." β
There are more and more onlookers, and they all wonder why this girl from the countryside only needs such a little rice, I'm afraid that she is not from the countryside and has never seen the world?
Xu Huo was also puzzled, and slowly calculated silently in his heart, and his expression gradually became solemn.
When everyone was still holding their breath to watch Hua Gaoyang put the rice, Xu Huo had already calculated an approximate number, and couldn't help but gasp, looking at the girl sitting on the opposite side of the chessboard in a daze.
Huo Yun looked at Hua Gaoyang with a faint smile, this story was heard by her in the second elementary school, originally said that in a country called India in the southwest, the king decided to reward him for the master who invented chess.
The master thought about it for a moment and made such a seemingly ridiculous and simple request.
There were sixty-four squares on the chess board, and the king did not suspect him, so he asked someone to put rice in the grid according to the master's method, but he did not know that it was a mathematical calculation.
By the time of the sixteenth grid, the number of more than 30,000 grains was almost a kilogram of rice; At the twentieth grid, the king's retinue even had to push a cart of rice to put it in!
Huo Yun watched Hua Gaoyang's face change and change for a long time.
I don't know when the pound of rice just now has already been put away, and the soldiers behind him have begun to push the cart here.
Hua Gaoyang grabbed a handful in his hand, the tip of the soldier's nose was sweating, and his voice trembled: "It's ...... Fourteenth square, eight-eighty-eight...... Eight thousand ......"
"Eight thousand one hundred and ninety-two." Huo Yunqian quickly answered, and smiled at Hua Gaoyang, "Captain Huadu, I'm not mistaken, Fang Cai's grid is four thousand and ninety-six." β
Xu Huo stood in the crowd, a chuckle on his lips.
