Chapter 66: The Pirate Divides the Gold

Ye Feng solved the case of Yin Bing's borrowing of the road, and even solved the strange case in Yongding County, which the Nine Star Division had already heard.

Now it seems that Ye Feng can solve the case, it is not a blind cat that meets a dead mouse, he has careful logic and a clear mind. The most rare thing is that he can always stay calm, no matter how critical the situation, he has a kind of courage that Taishan collapses forward and does not change.

After completing the assessment of "luck", the gold medal Ji Zhaoyang took him into the next room.

Moments later, three prisoners walked in, wearing clothes that read A, B, and C.

Among them, A is holding a brocade box in his hand.

Ji Zhaoyang said with a smile: "This level is a test of 'wisdom', if you want to become an official of the Nine Star Division, wisdom is indispensable." ”

With that, he stepped forward and opened the brocade box, which contained glittering gold coins.

This couldn't have been given to Ye Feng for nothing, so he didn't ask.

After a while, Ji Zhaoyang announced the exam questions: "There are a total of one hundred gold coins in the brocade box, and they need to be divided among the three of them, but how they should be divided is up to you." ”

"You give A points, and then you have the three of them judge the plan, and if the plan doesn't have more than half of the participants agree, A will be executed. After the execution, B and C divide the gold coins, and you give B points, and the requirements are still the same, half agree, otherwise they will be executed. ”

As soon as Ji Zhaoyang's words fell, the three of A, B and C shivered instantly, and the blood on their faces quickly disappeared visibly with the naked eye, and finally turned pale.

And Ye Feng, who was on the other side, also frowned: "I don't want to kill anyone." ”

Ji Zhaoyang smiled: "You don't have a psychological burden, these three people are all captives captured from the battlefield, and they should have been executed." But now, because of you, they have a chance to live. No matter which of them lives, life is given by you, and they will be grateful to you for the rest of their lives. ”

After speaking, Ji Zhaoyang looked at the three of them again: "No matter who survives in the end, you can get the gold coins you shared, and you will be exempted from all responsibilities and released on the spot." The order of A, B and C on your clothes is obtained by lottery, life and death are fateful, everything is providential. ”

After listening to the rules, the three of them first looked at Ji Zhaoyang and Ye Feng together, and then glanced at each other, their eyes a little evasive.

It is not difficult to see from the changes in their micro-expressions that they have already made up their minds, and they all have one purpose: to get the gold coins and live at the same time.

Only the man in the armor costume was very nervous, he looked at Ye Feng in fear, and pleaded: "My lord, I don't want gold coins, I just want to live, you give them all the gold coins, they will definitely agree." ”

Ye Feng looked at the man's frightened eyes, shook his head, and said faintly: "If you die, the two of them will divide the hundred gold coins, no matter how they divide it, it will be more than the three people." ”

At this moment, the man fell into deep despair. Beads of sweat from the size of the bean instantly crossed his cheeks, his legs were weak, and the brocade box in his hand almost fell to the ground, completely relying on willpower to stand there without falling, and kept muttering: "I don't want to die...... I don't want to die......"

Ji Shaoyang glanced at him coldly, and the man hurriedly closed his mouth, not daring to make any more sounds.

"Alright, you have a stick of incense time to think about how to distribute a hundred gold coins. After this level, I'll take you to the next level,"

One hundred gold coins, divided among three men.

In order to survive, A will definitely give up all the gold coins and give them to B and C.

But if B and C do not agree, after A is put to death, it is up to them to divide the gold coins.

But if this is the case, B's life is entirely in C's hands, because if C vetoes it, B will be put to death, and C will take a hundred gold coins for himself.

In this way, the first person has 0 gold coins, the second person has 0 gold coins, and the third person has 100 gold coins, which is the only result.

Although the three people in front of him were all captives and should have been executed, Ye Feng didn't want to kill.

This is a logical problem, and in this day and age, it can be said to be very difficult.

But Ye Feng, before crossing over, didn't know how much he had done.

What's more, he is a psychology expert, and he has helped the police solve cases for a long time.

"A simplified version of the pirate divide."

Ye Feng sneered and walked straight towards Jia.

He stood still in front of A, and took out a gold coin from the brocade box.

A had tears in his eyes, his whole body trembled after seeing Ye Feng's actions, he gave all the hundred gold cups to B and C, he might not be able to survive, and now he has to leave ninety-nine to himself?

For a moment, A closed his eyes and waited for death later.

Ye Feng ignored it, took a gold coin, walked in front of B, and put it in B's hand.

"After the distribution, the three of you vote, raise your hand in agreement."

The current situation is: A has ninety-nine, B has one, and C has none.

It seemed like a very ridiculous distribution, A and B raised their hands instantly, only C looked at the two companions with a puzzled face, and then cast a surprised look at Ye Feng.

Ye Feng nodded: "More than half, the three of them don't have to die, the gold coins are divided, you can live." ”

The core of the pirate division is a very simple logical reasoning problem, the core of which is that no matter what kind of plan A proposes, B will definitely agree to it in order to survive, and similarly, C will definitely not agree.

In fact, it is perfectly possible to give 100 gold coins to A, and B and C will not change their voting answers.

It's just that, in order to prevent B from breaking the jar and falling, he doesn't have a single gold coin, and he wants to die with A.

Therefore, a gold coin given to B is for the sake of humanity.

This is not only a test of wisdom, but also a test of human nature, as Han Nian said to him, everything must be worthy of his heart.

"How long did I use it?" Ye Feng turned his head to look at Ji Zhaoyang on the side and asked.

Ji Zhaoyang swallowed hard and replied, "Six breaths." ”

At this time, Ji Zhaoyang was very depressed, thinking that when he answered the question by himself, it took half a stick of incense, and it was already relatively fast.

He looked at the young man in front of him, and there was a different kind of light in his eyes. If he didn't know the exam questions in advance, then he was a genius.

Ji Zhaoyang waved his hand, and several officials took the three of them away.

"Let's go, there's one last level - 'Dao'."

Ji Zhaoyang's face was full of envy, jealousy and hatred, and he took Ye Feng out of the room angrily.

After learning about Ye Feng's idea of dividing the gold coins, Ji Zhaoyang asked with some puzzlement: "Since no matter how you divide it, the result will be like this, then why don't you distribute the gold coins to them as evenly as possible?" You gave A ninety-nine gold coins, don't you know him? ”

Ye Feng shook his head and said, "I don't know the three of them, let alone have a personal relationship, that is to say, the life or death of the three of them has nothing to do with me. But I think that Song Gong set up this question, and what he really wants to test is interests. ”

"Interests?" Ji Zhaoyang didn't expect him to say that.

"Anyone does everything for the sake of profit, and the Nine Star Division is the same, helping the emperor to do things, in exchange for fame and fortune, this is profit. Therefore, the core of this question is how to maximize the benefits. Ninety-nine gold coins is the greatest benefit A can get. Ye Feng explained in a deep voice.

After listening to this, Ji Zhaoyang nodded in agreement: "Is there anything else?" ”

"Sometimes an absolute disadvantage is an absolute advantage. A starts to distribute first, and his life is completely in the hands of B and C, which is an absolute disadvantage, but this is precisely the advantage that he can get ninety-nine gold coins. I think Song Gong set this question, and also wanted to tell us a truth about putting oneself to death and then being born, sometimes, the tasks of the Nine Star Division are at an absolute disadvantage, but we have to use the absolute disadvantage in exchange for an absolute advantage......
