Chapter 417 Pink Prince
Yiye is divided into four seasons, each season is more than 80 days, in fact, it is more than 90 days, like other red-haired dinosaurs, the pink leader is not very sensitive to numbers, so he will come up with such a number, how much it is, no one can figure it out for a while, everyone is very entangled, so Pink proposed that the unit should be smaller.
The dice stretched out his paw and was about to scratch his head, when suddenly a flash of inspiration and said:
"There you go. ”
"What's the matter?" asked the Pink Chief.
"Isn't it enough to set it as a five-day mini-cycle? It just so happens that our claws have five fingers, and it is convenient to break the fingers to count, not to mention that the first master has three hundred and sixty-five days, which is exactly a multiple of five, and after a number of five-day small cycles, the first master will be over, and then the second master, isn't it good?"
The pink stretched out her finger to calculate, it was indeed much more convenient, and she praised the dice again and again for being smart. But he still couldn't figure out some of the numbers, so he asked:
"How many five days does 365 days consist of?"
This made everyone ask questions, who knows such a big number? The dice just said that there were several, but they didn't calculate it after thinking about it for a long time, but the dice is a dice after all, and he is well-informed, so he said:
"There's a way to do it. ”
Dice beckoned a few smart officials to come over, and after giving such and such an order, everyone nodded yes. So, one official rubbed on the ground with his paws, another counted how many paw prints there were, and the third counted how many fingerprints there were. In order not to make mistakes, Dice divided the officials of the number of seals into two groups to count, and participated in the counting.
When the count of fingerprints reached 365, Dice shouted "Stop", and then the rubbing, the number of prints stopped, and the number of paw prints reported: "73." The other group also said there was no doubt.
"Good. "I counted 73 too." ”
"Report to the chief, the first master has 73 small cycles of five days. ”
"This five-day cycle should also have a name. Pink said.
"Since it's a small cycle, how about calling it a 'week'?" Peony interjected.
"I'd like to name the five heavens heaven, earth, sun, moon, and star, how about you?" said the pink leader.
"LinkedIn. The following shouted in unison.
Pink is indeed wise. Naming these five days as heaven, earth, sun, moon and stars is very different from the meaning of simple one, two, three, four, five, and it is not just easy to remember, you can come up with the specific meaning.
"Since the falling point is a star, the week will end after the star, how about calling the week 'week'?" Mahjong, who had not spoken, also blurted out at this time.
Disease is contagious, and so is wisdom. Once the door of wisdom is opened, that wisdom is naturally like a bird chirping and chirping endlessly. For a while, everyone's inspiration was like the water that burst the embankment, surging in, and it was not something that could be stopped.
This was followed by the suggestion that the cycles of the Lord and the Moon should be linked. The moon is the protector of the red-haired dinosaurs, and the movement of the moon is also regular. Therefore, the moon must be taken into account in the formulation of the calendar.
"How many days does the moon last?" asked Pink.
"More than 29 days," said the dice, "according to my observations over the years, this cycle is not fixed, about 29 and a quarter of a day to 29 and a quarter of three days, on average, that is, about 29 and a half days." ”
Pink scratches her head. Said:
"It's a nuisance, not all day. How?"
"It's not very difficult, some friends who observe the moon, they have long been calculating the days according to the movement of the moon, adding one day to this cycle, and subtracting one day from the next cycle, and the fraction will be solved. ”
"That's not a bad idea. The leader said, "What shall we give the cycle of the moon a name?"
"This is also ready-made, since it is the cycle of the moon, how about we call it 'moon'. It is called January, February, and several months in turn. Dice said.
"Not a few months," said the chief, "let it start from the head of the master and end at the end of the master, and you will calculate, how many months will the first master contain?"
Dice hurriedly took mahjong and other calculations, and after a few hours, it was finally calculated, and Dice reported:
"The first master is more than twelve months. ”
"It's not a whole number, how many days are left?" asked the chief.
"According to the sum of 30 days and 29 days, 12 months is a total of 354 days, and Yiye is 365 days, and there are still 11 days missing. Dice replied.
"How about spreading the 11 days over the 12 months?" said the chief.
"This method is okay, some months are 31 days, some months are 30 days, and there is a 29-day month, which can be rounded, but this is a bit nondescript, it has completely deviated from the cycle of the moon, the moon is full on the fifteenth day of this month, and the month may run to the beginning of the month, or to the end of the month, such a calendar will be ridiculed as the work of the mentally retarded. ”
"I was almost ridiculed as mentally retarded," said the chief, "but what should be done about these 11 days, so that this lord and the moon can be organically connected?"
After thinking about it for a long time, there was nothing to do, so he turned his eyes to me, hoping that I could solve this problem.
In fact, when the leader and the dice talked, I also kept thinking about this question, and when the leader asked again, in fact, I had already thought of the answer, but I didn't want to steal the limelight of the dice, after all, this is the swallowing tribe, I am a hurried passer-by, and I show my intelligence too much, which may cause harm and unhappiness to some red-haired dinosaurs.
"It's a bit of a stretch to add the remaining 11 days to the months, it's pointless, the four-legged ones won't do that, the two-legged ones won't do that, I don't know," I said. In fact, these 11 days are not left, it is the 11 days of the next month, these 11 days belong to the master, the remaining 18 days or 19 days belong to the master, to the second master, the remaining days become 22 days, that is to say, 22 days in the world, 7 days to 8 days belong to the master, and in the third year, the remaining days become 33 days, which is 3 to 4 days more than a month. The first two years, whether it is 11 days or 22 days, are counted to the next year, and the third year, because it is 33 days, this whole month is included in the master's degree, so this master should be 13 months, so how about it?"
"Very good," said Pink, "but it's a pity that the first day of January is not the first of January, so it has to be decided by the week." ”
"Then the first Monday of each master is set as New Year's Day, which is the head of each master, and the tribe should celebrate. Set this master as the first master, because the New Year's Day has passed, and we will celebrate the next master. Now the pink leader took office, the pharyngeal tribe is unprecedentedly prosperous, the leader is indispensable, and the first calendar, since there is no ancient dragon before and no one after the come, it is advisable to set this master as the pink master, and so on, the pink second master, the pink third master, until the thousand masters. Dice said.
Naturally, the following agrees.
Pink is doing everything she can to excuse herself, saying that she has no virtue and how can she dare to link it to this calendar, which will make the world dinosaurs laugh. Helplessly, where everyone is willing to give in, naturally they are persuaded in every possible way, and some officials even quote the past and the present, talk about the world, and answer correctly without words, so they have to accept it, so they give up.
