Chapter 15 Quick Calculation Scam
There are few landmark attractions in city A, only one Hongshan Temple is famous in the country, in addition to being located on the top of the mountain to overlook the good scenery, the Buddhist hall in the temple is said to be very accurate, can wish all wishes come true, therefore, incense is continuous. However, the geographical location of Hongshan Temple is too remote, the distance is far away, and it is only open to the public in the morning, and it has passed the time point, so I can only go tomorrow.
In the afternoon, Song Shinuo turned on the computer to complete the project work, and Huo Yizhou made up for sleep in the guest room until after dinner, and he proposed to go for a walk outside the alley.
As soon as I went out, a small pebble "snapped" at my feet, and the child of whose family was playing Ultraman to entertain himself, dancing around with a branch in his hand, shouting lines in his mouth as if no one was around. Huo Yizhou coughed, and he immediately stood obediently as if he had been stepped on by his tail, turned his head to see someone, and flew over again: "Sister Shinuo is good!" ”
"Why is Sister Shi Nuo home now! You didn't come back to play with me this summer, I miss you! As he spoke, he glanced at Huo Yizhou, his eyes looked away vigilantly, "Mom said that you college students are very busy, and you have to stay outside often, you and Brother Ye ......."
"Haohao." Song Shinuo squatted down, patted his head and interrupted the second half of the sentence in time, hooked his lips and smiled lightly: "Why are you playing here alone?" ”
The child's mind was straight, and his attention was immediately diverted: "In the open space next to the bank on Cross Street, a platform has been set up, and a famous teacher has come to sell cheats. Mom has already taken the place, saying that as long as you buy it, you can be as smart as your sister. ”
"Cheats?" Song Shinuo frowned, puzzled.
"It's the ...... of math cheats"
The two asked and answered, back and forth, and Huo Yizhou was left out in the cold. Huo Yizhou lowered his head, stared at the top of the head of the culprit who ruined the atmosphere of the walk, and couldn't resist the idea of grabbing his back collar and throwing people aside, so he also half-squatted down, took out the fruit candy given by Song Shinuo in the afternoon from his pocket, and spread out his palm: "Little friend, come here, call brother." ”
"Call brother, and I'll choose one for you to eat."
Lychee and peach flavors, the little boy rolled his eyes, looked at him very shrewdly, and moved his lips as if he wanted to open his mouth - the result was unexpected, he stretched out his hand, directly pocketed the two, and hid behind Song Shinuo: "Don't choose." ”
Huo Yizhou: "......"
"You ......" He raised his hand, gesturing to catch the other party to teach him a lesson, but he was stopped as soon as he stretched out. Song Shinuo lowered his eyes and slapped the back of his hand lightly: "It should be someone pretending to be a teacher who is cheating money, let's go and see." ”
The cross street is less than a 10-minute walk from He'an Lane, and the traffic is relatively prosperous, and the lights on both sides of the shops are colorful at night. Sure enough, a platform was set up at the entrance of the bank, and a mobile whiteboard was set up, and a lot of people gathered under the platform, mostly parents, as well as students who came with their parents, and occasionally young people crossed their legs to watch the excitement, and they all quickly filled the plastic stools.
The sound was loud, and the man with glasses on the stage was holding a microphone and passionately preaching:
"Let's look at this: 58×52, in three seconds, can anyone say the correct answer?"
"Three, two, one! No! 58×52=3016, okay for another question: 64×66=4224, can anyone answer this question quickly? Again, no! He spoke so fast that he applied a sense of pressure out of thin air, turned around and picked up the pen, and neatly drew a huge question mark on the whiteboard, "But with the new algorithm we have researched, all problems will be solved!" ”
"5×(5+1)=5×6=30,8×2=16, so 58×52=3016;6×7=42,4×6=24, so 64×66=4224!"
"Parents! See! It's that easy to calculate, it's so easy to do math! ”
There was a pause in the audience, and many people calculated according to the numbers he explained, and found that the answers did match, and they were quite amazed. Song Shinuo pulled Huo Yizhou and took the opportunity to blend in with the crowd and find an empty position. As soon as he sat down, the man with glasses suddenly patted the microphone, attracting everyone's attention, paving the way to the end, going straight to the point, and unveiling the mystery of "improving 60 points a week"-
"Little Doctor's Quick Calculation Book", jointly compiled by famous teachers from various universities, comes with eight matching CDs upon purchase, so that books and video teaching can be flexibly combined. Just 599! Master your child in quick math in one day and become a prodigy! Hit the starting line now! ”
"Tsk." Huo Yizhou hooked the corners of his lips and felt funny, "This kind of business, fake books are sold so expensive, do you deceive people as fools?" ”
He turned his head, and saw that there were unexpectedly many "fools" around him, almost surround the two of them. Not only did he respond positively to the stage, but he also jumped to take out his wallet, obviously moved by what he said.
The man with glasses is very good at mastering the rhythm, and hurriedly strikes while the iron is hot: "In this way, I will give you another chance to experience the secret of mental arithmetic!" I'll draw three lucky viewers and come up and solve the problem with me. ”
"These 10 questions." He pointed to the whiteboard listed on the whiteboard behind him, "I use the secret in the book to solve it, and you can use a pen or a mobile phone calculator, as long as you answer all the questions correctly and faster than me, I will not only give away books for free, but also give beautiful gifts!" ”
"Is there anyone interested in trying it out?"
As soon as these words came out, there was a lot of chatter in the audience, and soon someone volunteered, and there was still one last place left.
Huo Yizhou casually swept through the crowd in the front row, watching the tug-of-war in front of the parents who insisted on pushing their children up, but unexpectedly, the little genius classmate who had been silent next to him suddenly raised his hand. Song Shinuo gestured: "Me." ”
