Chapter 45: The Nine-Nine Multiplication Proof
Chen Yue really wanted to give the store a bad review, but unfortunately there was no APP and no objection. Several people went to get firewood, fetch water, lit braziers, hung a pottery pot to boil water, and ate the dry food they brought with them.
After eating, looking at the thin floor, several people went to the woodshed to find some soft weeds to come back to lay the floor. Chen Yue took off his coat and put it aside, but when he turned around, he saw that the three of them had not taken off their clothes and was about to go to bed.
Without cotton coats or down jackets, the way for Han people to keep warm is to protect the cold by wearing clothes is that nobles wear exquisitely made animal skin cloaks, poor people wear more linen clothes, and those who have pigs, dogs or sheep can get a crude animal skin cloak, and those who are even poorer have to go out.
Although Liu Bingyi is known as the great-grandson of the emperor, he is still a civilian. Chen Yue is a standard civilian, so the two of them only wore a few more pieces of linen clothes, and the remaining two also wore several pieces, but they were all borrowed from their mothers or brothers and were worn temporarily when they went out.
"Take one or two pieces before going to bed." Chen Yue suggested.
Chen Yue is still used to taking off one or two pieces of clothes to sleep. When he gets up the next day, he won’t feel cold. If he sleeps with clothes, he will feel much colder after getting up. He doesn’t know whether this is a psychological or physical reason.
However, Liu Bingyi and the other three didn't listen to him, and they all fell asleep with their clothes.
Thinking of his clothes, Chen Yue decided that after the beginning of spring, he would have to find a way to raise ducks and geese, and raise more. When winter comes next year, he must make three down jackets, and Ah Mother, Xiaomiao and himself must have one.
When I turned over, I saw Liu Bingyi sleeping, and three pieces turned into four pieces.
It would be great if there was cotton. Chen Yue sighed slightly. Because the current weaving skills are not exquisite enough, it is estimated that if you wear a down jacket for a winter, the down inside will be at least half of it, and there is also the possibility of falling off as you go. There is also the possibility that down can not be made into a quilt at present. By the same token, if you wake up for a night, it is probably like a duck cage.
Although Chen Yue's family also planted cotton in later generations, he didn't know which continent the cotton came from. He only knew that the cotton in the Western Regions was the most whitest and the best. He didn't know whether the Western Regions were originated. It seemed that he had to look for it in the future.
Thinking of this, he remembered the song "Half a pound of cotton, playing it into eight or eight" and almost hummed it. At this time, before he saw the cotton, he was already recalling how he planted cotton in his later generations.
Think about it, think about it...
When Chen Yue saw that Liu He had become the emperor, he killed Huo Guang and others the next day. From then on, the court took over and refused to grant Liu Bingyi the title of marquis. No matter how Liu Bingyi begged, it would not work. For this reason, Liu Bingyi had to lead people to overturn, and Chen Yue was one of the people whom he would follow.
But Chen Yue and Liu Bingyi and others had only seven or eight people, how could he succeed in rebelling? Chen Yue was caught and was beaten for 70 or 80 times in an instant, and was strangled with his neck and unable to move. Seeing that breathing was getting more and more difficult, fortunately the strong man let go and he kept falling down.
He really wanted to see the faces of these people clearly, but no matter what, he only saw Liu Bingyi's tender face clearly.
He waved his hands to grab something, but he couldn't catch anything. Just as he accelerated and fell again, Chen Yue woke up.
In the past, I heard from the old man that dreaming of jumping off a cliff or something means that he is still growing. Chen Yue was worried about his body of less than 1.5 meters. Now it seems that he can still grow.
But after three seconds of being happy, he realized that his limbs were sore and numb. He looked up worriedly and saw four men, both of them were sleeping in a mess, and his hands and legs were pressed down. No wonder they couldn't exert their strength in their dreams. The breathing was normal, but his head was a little dizzy. When he looked up, he found that the half-open door was closed tightly, and he felt a little slight carbon monoxide poisoning.
He quickly pushed away the hands and feet of several people, stood up, put on the clothes placed in the corner of the wall, and pushed open the door. A cold wind blew towards him, carrying thick oxygen, and immediately became more energetic. Chen Yue was about to shout "Fun".
A "ahhhhh" sounded behind him, and the sound of closing the door was heard. Chen Yue was halfway through listening, but he only closed half of the door, and then went outside to fetch water to wash his face.
It didn't snow today, but it started to frost and the weather was colder than snowy days. However, people who have lived in rural areas or used well water in winter know that the well water that had just been drilled was warm at this time, so after Chen Yue started water, he quickly poured water to wash his face, then pulled the inside of his clothes and rubbed his face on his face. His face was warm first, then became cold, and rubbed his cheeks a few times, and then became warmer again.
The wooden barrels for fetching water are connected to ropes, so that the guests who stayed at home will not take them out at will, so that other guests will not be able to use the barrels. Chen Yue could not break this rule, and went back to the house to get a gourd ladle, scooped up most of the ladle and took it back to the house.
After returning to the house, no matter how Chen Yue shouted, everyone was unwilling to get up, and even their eyes were unwilling to open. Looking at the sky that was already bright, Chen Yue had to wash their faces by himself.
When Chen Yue "accidentally" dripped the wash water into Liu Bingyi's neck, the latter stood up instantly, glared at him, and snatched the gourd in Chen Yue's hand as fast as lightning.
Seeing that the opportunity was wrong, Chen Yue jumped to the gate.
Seeing that he could not attack Chen Yue, Liu Bingye had to shout "It's raining." At the same time, he put his right hand into the water and grabbed it, and then sprinkled it on the two people who were still pretending to be asleep. He did not dare to pour it out because it was cold weather, and everyone had only the clothes they wore on their bodies, which were wet and not changed.
The two people who were awakened by the cold wanted to snatch the slag from Liu Bingyi's hand and prepare for a sprinkling battle. However, Chen Yue was quick-eyed and quickly grabbed the slag from Liu Bingyi's hand, and then asked with a sneering smile: "Do you still have more clothes? If you don't want to get sick from the cold, go wash your face quickly, there are buckets outside."
Seeing this, everyone had to express their unwillingness, and then opened the door and went out to wash their faces. As a result, when the cold wind blew outside, they all ran back. Only after repeated efforts were completed were completed.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! As a result, one or two were so stupid that they did not dry in time after washing their faces, almost all of them were frostbite.
Then, at Chen Yue's strong request, the four of them ate some dry food, found the owner to check the room, and paid the owner's ten coins to stay in the store before heading to Shangguanli.
When they arrived at Shangguanli and Liu Bingyi's house in Xishi City, Chen Yue laughed and said that they had passed 9981 levels and encountered countless inspections along the way, and they were walking along the wall.
"You know how to 99 songs?" Liu Bing was a little surprised.
Chen Yue said proudly: "Yes! Do you want me to teach you?"
Hearing Chen Yue's statement, Liu Bingyi burst out laughing and said, "You can recite the 99 songs that a child of five or six years old can recite. I still need you to teach it? Hahaha..."
Chen Yue can't do this. Isn't it said that the ancients' mathematics is very poor? They can do the ninth and nineteen multiplication formulas?
After seeing that Chen Yue looked disbelief, Liu Bingyi spoke out loud: "Ninety-nine eighty-one, Ninety-seventy-two, Ninety-seventy-three...two and two get four."
"Damn, are you memorizing it like a stream?" Chen Yue said in surprise. He was memorizing one by one, one by two, and two by two... Seventy-three, eighty-nine seventy-two, ninety-nine eighty-one. It was very smooth for others to memorize it backwards. It was obvious which one was stronger and who was weak.
Chen Yue grabbed his head and felt that he had been insulted. He didn't know who did it.
"Where to build a kang?" Chen Yue felt that the topic must be changed.
Liu Bingye did not answer the matter of building a kang, but asked thoughtfully: "Don't you only know how to build a kang, right?"
"How is that possible?" Chen Yue certainly would not show weakness in this regard, but said with his head raised his chest, "Your mantra is thirty-six sentences, and I can recite forty-five sentences. Forget it, let's not talk about this, but let's talk about building a kang."
"Impossible." Liu Bingyi grabbed Chen Yue and said, "In the hundreds of years since the Spring and Autumn Period, there have been only thirty-six verses of the Nine Nine Songs. How could there be forty-five verses? Tell me what the other nine sentences are, and don't lie to me."
Our ancestors are really awesome.
"Just say it." Chen Yue then spoke, "One gets one, one gets two...7963, eight972, nine981."
"You're still very smooth in memorizing it!" Liu Bingyi was about to praise Chen Yue for a few more words, but suddenly his face changed and pointed at Chen Yue and said, "One one, one two, one two, who doesn't know this? Who wants you to add it randomly?"
"Is this forty-five sentences?"
"yes."
"Will it be over?"
"But you are having fun, you don't have to join in at all, everyone understands."
"It's not a better and smoother batch. And I either recite it backwards or just keep it straight."
"In addition, it's useless. You just recite it backwards."
"Shunbei."
"Returning."
...
After a while, Liu Bingyi said, "I thought about it carefully. Your way of reciting is indeed much simpler than mine. It is convenient and quick to memorize from childhood to adulthood."
Although Liu Bingyi recognized Chen Yue's method of reciting, he felt that he was still insulted. Chen Yue decided to counter-insult back. No, he wanted to use mathematical knowledge to attack him. No, he wanted to exchange mathematical knowledge more with Liu Bingyi.
So, he asked a simple question.
"It seems that your arithmetic is pretty good. I'll ask you a simple question." Chen Yue smiled and continued without waiting for Liu Bingyi to agree: "If there is a dry well, I don't know how deep it is, and there is a rope, and I don't know how long it is. But after folding the rope three times into the well, the rope outside the well is more than four feet long, and then folding the rope four times into the well, and the rope outside the well is more than one foot long. The question is how deep the well is? How long is the rope?"
"Brother Yue, aren't you doing nothing when you're full? Do you need to have three or four folds? Since you have a ruler to measure the length of the rope left outside the well, why not measure the length of the rope first, then put it in the well, and then measure it again and then get the depth of the well. Is it necessary to be so troublesome?" Zhang He asked smartly after listening to the question.
The three tenants were not servants of the Chen family. In terms of name, Chen Yue asked them to call them Yue Ge, so they didn't need to call them Langjun or Alang or the like.
After hearing Zhang He's words, Li Tian, who was standing beside him, kept nodding and echoing, as if saying "I'm the same."
Originally, Chen Yue wanted to give the two people the word "get out", but turned around and saw Liu Bingyi thinking seriously, so he said to Zhang Lihe: "You are right, but don't talk anymore, so as not to disturb Bingyi's thinking."
The two nodded and sat quietly behind the door of Liu Bingyi's house.
Liu Bingyi picked up the stones on the ground and pulled them to calculate. After asking Chen Yue two or three questions, he stopped talking, but kept calculating.
Ten minutes passed, and Liu Bingyi was still planning. Chen Yue felt bored and decided to ask another question to tease two fools.
After Chen Yue greeted the two fools, he said softly: "I will also ask a question to test you, a simple arithmetic question. If you answered correctly, I will help you harvest ten acres of wheat from land next summer. If you didn't answer correctly or couldn't answer it, you will help me harvest ten acres of land. Is it okay?"
"Is it simple?" Li Tian asked.
Chen Yue smiled and said, "It's very simple. It's just a question of how many pheasants and rabbits have."
After Zhang and Li looked at each other, they walked to the corner of the wall seven or eight meters away from Chen Yue. After two minutes of discussion, they returned to Chen Yue, and shook their heads together and said, "No, we have never learned arithmetic and don't bet."
It seems that although the two are a bit stupid, they are not stupid.
"Forget it, if you don't gamble, don't gamble. I'll just take a test of you." Chen Yue felt bored, so he still asked some questions to play with it. "If there are pheasants and rabbits in my family in the same circle, and there are thirty-five heads from the top, and ninety-four feet from the bottom, the question is how many pheasants and rabbits each have?"
After Chen Yue finished the question, he felt good about it. Although he looked at the two of them, he was waiting for him to ask for advice on how to show his uniqueness or tone.
As a result, he was confused because the two of them stared at him, just like a fool.
Li Tian also reached out and touched Chen Yue's forehead, then touched his forehead, and said to Zhang He: "It's normal, it doesn't seem to have a fever (fever)."
Afterwards, Li Tian also said sincerely to Chen Yue: "Brother Yue, you must crawl and watch your feet from below. It is inconvenient to count. Since you can see the heads of the pheasant rabbit, you can directly count how many pheasant and rabbit each have. What else do we have to do?"
After hearing Li Tian's words, Chen Yue agreed and nodded blankly to show that he was right. Then he quickly took a few steps back, a little worried that the other party would pass the silly to him.
Seeing Zhang He saying something, Chen Yue quickly ran to Liu Bingyi and got some dragon energy to protect him, so as not to be invaded by the stupid energy.
Liu Bingyi, who was squatting on the ground, had already started to sweat. The draft he calculated had taken up several square meters. Even if he changed it to a signature pen to calculate the draft, it would probably take up a piece of A4 paper.
However, the calculation has not yet been completed, and the method has changed from the text that Chen Yue understands to painting.
I saw Liu Bingyi squatting in front of several well rope maps he drew, constantly wiggling, but it seemed that he had almost calculated it.
