Chapter 289: The Counting of the Day
Lintian looked at himself in his memories interestingly, he also felt very lucky, fortunately he had memories of his past life, otherwise he might not be able to figure it out.
Lintian thought about it carefully, and finally left Shifu behind.
Choose one of the numbers and the scriptures, but Lintian has not read many books because the time is too short, and he is not too sure of filling in the blanks silently, so he can only choose to count a little higher. But the number of this world, Lin Tian has not seen what it is like with his own eyes, so Wen Xiang decided to leave the poem at the end and give the number more time.
At this time, it was the time to go home for lunch and rest, but the number of onlookers watching the Xiucai exam did not decrease but increased, and they didn't seem to have the idea of eating and resting, and the sound of chatting and gossip was also extremely intense.
At the same time, in the bamboo building not far from the opening, the gentlemen of the academy and the officials of the imperial court have also begun to discuss this year's examination in private.
"This year's exam questions have just been announced, and it seems to be much more difficult than usual."
"Yes, let's just say that Moyi's last way, I really don't know what chapter to use to answer, it's really not a way, it's a question from which master of the Hanlin Academy. ”
"I want to see it this year, and I don't know if I can come out with a lucky poem this year, so that I, the old man Cao, can also see it. ”
"In my opinion, Wang Ming, the eldest son of the Wang family, is good, he should be able to enter the top of the list, and he has performed very well in these days in the academy. ”
"That Zhang Yuanwai's youngest son is not bad, he also made a toast a few days ago, and Zhang Yuanwai couldn't close his mouth. ”
"Yes, that's right. That's right. What do you say is called Lintian? Some time ago. Didn't you make a name for yourself at the Qingming Cultural Fair?"
"He, I know, it is said that he was born in a poor family, he is a subordinate, and it seems that he is not very happy with Wenliang of the Ministry of Rites in the capital, but a few days ago he really made a famous poem, but you think about it, this famous poem is hard to find. It's not always so lucky, and besides, the Xiucai exam is not just poetry, I see, he has no hope of being at the top of the list!"
"I don't think so, didn't Xu Hanlin teach him for a while, that is a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, it is said that he once visited the people of the Tianzi Academy, maybe there will be a miracle. ”
"Well, there is some truth, let's wait and see!"
At this time, all his energy was focused on the problem of counting in front of him. Before that, Lintian still glanced at the scriptures a few times. Although some of them he had read and could write. But there is a part of it, which really hasn't been read, and it must not be ideal if he writes it silently, so Wen Xiang just gave up the idea after just a few glances.
The first question of this calculation made him relax a little, the arithmetic measurement in this world is basically the same as in the previous life, the first question is not very difficult for Lintian, but it feels very interesting.
Here's a limerick poem that reads:
'The chickens and rabbits are in the same cage, and there are thirty-six cages. ’
'Count fifty pairs of feet, how many chickens and rabbits are there?'
After reading it, Lintian came up with the answer, this is simply the so-called earth in the previous life, the brain teaser in elementary school, in the memory of the previous life, he liked this kind of topic very much, this kind of arithmetic problem is a bit pediatric.
Lintian wrote: "Foot cutting method":
If all the rabbits have "hidden" two feet, they should have seventy-two feet, and now they have a hundred feet, so that twenty-eight have been hidden, and the number of rabbits is: half twenty-eight, and fourteen feet, and twenty-two chickens;
"Foot-adding method": all chickens with two more prosthetic feet, then there should be one hundred and forty-four, now there are one hundred feet, there are forty-four prosthetic feet, so the number of chickens is: forty-four general, twenty-two, then the number of rabbits obtained is: fourteen;
Lintian finished the first question very easily, and he couldn't help but feel a feeling of nostalgia in his heart.
"This time the topic is really interesting, no wonder most people don't like to choose counting, this topic here is estimated to make others break their minds, it's a problem. But if it was in the previous life, there would be more methods, you could set the unknown, you could use the 'Bolivia' halving method, etc., but it is estimated that they would not be able to understand it when it was written."
Then I turned to the second question. This second question is even more interesting, which asks:
"The bamboo plain is one zhang high, the end of the fold place, to go to the original has three feet, this bamboo geometric length?"
Lintian couldn't cry or laugh, and said with a smile in his heart:
"This is also a geometry problem? The person who wrote this question is really good, but I just don't know how to draw a picture, can I do it......"
This question is actually the question of finding the right angle of a triangle in the memory of Lintian's previous life. The Pythagorean theorem came out as soon as it was calculated, and it could be written with your eyes closed.
"I really didn't expect that the calculation would be so easy, it seems that the choice is right. Lin Tian was a little pleased, and then looked at the next question.
In fact, he didn't know that if Mr. Shuyuan came to see his answer at this time, he would be shocked, this unique way of answering, there are not many people from ancient times to the present.
Because this world pays attention to literary cultivation, no matter how good the calculation is, it is impossible for everyone to get luck from it, and relatively speaking, endorsement is easier than counting. Basically, the vast majority of people will choose the Thessalonian, unless it is a family of specialized mathematical schools.
Lintian quickly wrote the answer, but did not write the corresponding explanation of the process, because if an unknown English letter was set up with the Pythagorean theorem, it was estimated that the examiner would directly give him an inferior evaluation.
There were a total of ten questions in this calculation, and Lintian quickly completed half of the questions. Then there was another question that caused a large number of memories of Lintian's past life to pour in:
'A loan of seven hundred and fifty dollars, and a thousand dollars with interest of thirty per month, and the term of the loan is set at nine days, how much interest will be charged?'
This is a loan problem, and it can't help but remind Lintian of the credit of the earth. He knew the answer at a glance and quickly wrote it.
At this time, many people in the examination room have finished answering the questions and are ready to start writing poems, because the silent writing of the scriptures fills in the blanks, for some people who endorse the book well, it can be said that it is to send the questions, if you are lucky, they are all books that you are familiar with, and you can finish writing them soon.
Wen Yong has finished all the questions and is ready to start writing poems. While sorting out the answer sheet, he looked in the direction of Lintian, his eyes were full of gloom.
I have to say that Wen Yong is definitely the best among the juniors of the Wen family, much stronger than Na Wen San, and naturally he reads more books than several others, and is highly expected by Wen Houde. Although he felt that he was inferior to Wang Ming in the academy's literary society, only the Wen family himself knew that Wen Yong was clumsy.
"Hmph, it's ridiculous, I've been a subordinate for more than ten years, and I still want to take the Xiucai exam, I can't fully answer today's exam questions, it's up to you. Wait a minute, write a poem, and let you know what you can't reach. I still want to take revenge, the fool is talking about dreams, and after a while, I should be able to act......" Wen Yong glanced at Lintian contemptuously a few times, and then began to debug the ink. (To be continued.) )
