12. Chapter 12 On the Importance of Academic Qualifications

When Carlo came over with a plate, his father had already left, leaving Ding Chen alone in front of the bar in a daze. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

She put the plate in front of Ding Chen and said softly, "If it's not enough, I'll take it again." ”

"I think that's enough." Ding Chen looked at the meat on the plate that accounted for more than half and the sauce poured on it, "This is our harvest today?" ”

"That's right." "There are so many people that we can't cook too beautifully, we can only be full." ”

"Seriously." Ding Chen looked at the girl, "Your food source seems to be abundant, but it seems that there is a lack of meat, why don't you breed animals?" ”

Carlo was stunned for a moment, looked at him for a while, and then shook his head and said, "We have raised it." "It's just that something happened and they all died," she said. And then it never worked out again. She looked at Ding Chen and said lightly: "It's not so easy to domesticate wild animals. ”

"Of course." Ding Chen nodded, hesitating whether to inquire about what was going on. However, it didn't seem like Carlo's gossip person, and the question might have offended her, so she quickly dismissed the idea.

He looked at the meat on the plate and said to Carlo, "Actually, I'm more interested in those vegetables." ”

"You don't want meat?" The expression on Carlo's face became vivid, and she looked at Ding Chen in surprise, "Aren't men all carnivores?" ”

"That's because they didn't get to the point where they could only eat meat." Ding Chen said very seriously: "In order to supplement vitamins, I even ate grass. ”

"Okay." Carlo believed Ding Chen's words. In fact, from a woman's point of view, eating only meat is a terrible thing.

She took back the plate in front of Ding Chen, returned to the kitchen and changed half a plate of vegetable salad and half a plate of fruit to platter, put it in front of Ding Chen again, and poured him a glass of fruit wine.

When she went back to the kitchen, Ding Chen had already gone to the corner to get two steamed buns, dipped them in the broth and ate them in three bites. He hadn't eaten pasta in a long time, and as he chewed, the aroma of wheat spread in his mouth, and it felt much stronger than eating meat.

Ding Chen ate vegetables and fruits and other easy-to-chew things quickly, almost using chopsticks to pull into his mouth, three bites and two bites of almost scratched, and then stopped to drink a sip of wine.

While Ding Chen was eating, Carlo was lying in front of him and watching, not at all frightened by his ferocious appearance. Seeing him stop, he took the opportunity to ask, "Can eating grass really replenish vitamins?" ”

"At least it makes me feel better." Ding Chen put down the cup and said very seriously: "If I can't supplement vitamins, at least I can make myself feel that I can supplement vitamins." ”

A thoughtful expression appeared on Carlo's face, and she asked incredulously, "Isn't that just lying to yourself?" She looked at Ding Chen: "You won't be lying to me, right?" ”

Ding Chen laughed, pointed at her with chopsticks, lowered down and used the remaining half of the steamed bun to clean the jam on his plate.

"So you were lying to me just now?" Carlo is also very smart, and immediately realized that she had been fooled, and she said with some shame: "Do you know what the consequences are for lying to me? ”

"I really don't know." Ding Chen smiled: "Why don't you tell me?" ”

Carlo turned around and picked up a thick notebook from the cabinet behind him and placed it heavily in front of Ding Chen. Then he opened it and said to Ding Chen: "According to the regulations, the person who kills the prey can get ten percent of the prey." You and Zheng Yu share this 10% equally, which is 5% each. This wild boar weighs one hundred and twenty-seven, and I decided to erase those twenty-seven catties and count them as one thousand and one, which is ......"

"Fifty-five pounds." Ding Chen said: "It doesn't sound like much. ”

Carlo was taken aback, looked at him and said, "How did you calculate so quickly?" You've already done it? ”

"Even if I know the percentage of allocation, how can I possibly know how much this pig weighs?" Ding Chen said angrily: "Half of one hundred and eleven, is this difficult?" ”

Carlo blinked his eyes for a while before he understood what Ding Chen meant, and exclaimed in surprise: "Can it still be counted like this?" You're such a genius. ”

Ding Chen took a closer look at her and felt that it didn't look like a mockery, so he had to say helplessly: "This is a question for the Olympiad in primary school, and I don't know if there is a difficulty in the second grade." ”

"Did you go to elementary school?" Carlo said, "My God, you must know a lot of words." She looked at Ding Chen again, "I really didn't see that you are actually a high-level intellectual." ”

Ding Chen's mouth opened wide, and the steamed buns in his mouth fell down. He looked at Carlo's serious appearance and thought to himself, "Elementary school students are considered high-level intellectuals? What is the level of your master's degree in power mechanics? I really didn't expect such a place to be superstitious about academic qualifications!

The conversation with Carlo was pleasant, she was a very happy girl, quick thinking, and rich in words. Although in Ding Chen's opinion, Carlo's way of thinking seems to be very funny at times, but at least it is still within the normal range.

Carlo knows how to read and write, and can do four simple arithmetic, the latter skill is unmatched in the apartment, so he has begun to take charge of the distribution of public goods before he is an adult. With her dad behind her, no one ever questioned her correctness. Ding Chen can understand this very well, if no one can read the account book, of course, no one will come to check the account.

But apparently Carlo's interest in mathematics is limited to the scope of her work, she is more concerned about what books Ding Chen has read, and she also listed some biographical literature she has read, such as "Usurpation", "Emperor Qin", "The Light of Champions" and so on.

Ding Chen pondered for a long time about these unfamiliar titles, and suddenly said, "This is not a biography, right?" ”

"Isn't it?" Carlo was curious, "But they're telling the story of someone's life." She said confusedly: "Actually, I also think there is a problem, "Emperor Qin" seems to be a science fiction novel, but "Usurpation" must be a biography, and you can learn a lot of historical knowledge in it. Then she showed a very yearning look, "I don't like Xu Yifan, he is too bad, I like glory, he has good talent, and he works so hard, success is inevitable." ”

Ding Chen only had a vague impression of these books, so he was not sure, and of course he couldn't recommend a certain colored cat to her, so he had to ask again: "You don't only read biographies, do you?" ”

"Me too." Carlo proudly said: "For example, "The First Chaos in History." ”

Ding Chen said that he is very chaotic now.

After sweeping up the food in front of him and saying that he was full, Carlo took his plate to the back kitchen. While Ding Chen was sitting at the bar to digest the information brought by Carlo, Hoss walked over.

His breath was distinctly alcoholic, and his face flushed. He waved his hand and pushed away a hairy boy who accidentally bumped into his body and sat down next to Ding Chen.

"How is Zheng Yu?" Ding Chen asked.

"He was carried back by his brother." "He drank too much," Hoss said. ”

"Drinking is not good for a child of his age." Ding Chen said.

Hoss looked at the liquid in Ding Chen's glass, "You don't seem to like this wine?" ”

"Of course not." Ding Chen said: "This is very delicious. Of course, he couldn't tell Hoss that he wasn't in the habit of drinking too much in an unfamiliar place.

"If you like it." Hoss said, "What do you think of this place?" ”

Ding Chen didn't understand what he meant, hesitated for a moment and said, "Very good, very enthusiastic, very calm." ”

"Of course." Hoss turned to face the dining room and leaned against the bar with his arms outstretched, "Did you find out?" There are more women than men here. ”

Ding Chen had already discovered this problem, in fact, he found that there were very few elderly people in the restaurant, most of them were young and middle-aged, and there were some children of different ages.

Even so, it can be seen that there is a clear problem with the sex ratio of the population here in the apartment, with almost three to four times as many women as men.

"There's a reason for that." Hoss said, he looked at Ding Chen: "Do you want a woman?" ”
