The crowd cheered one after another, one wave higher than the other. Chu Conongrong was secretly happy, this was the effect she wanted. At this time, a certain man approached her and asked in a low voice: "Can I participate next time?"

The wealthy man looked eager to try, and it was obvious that he was already itching to do it.

Huh, I haven't made much money yet, so I'm not interested in continuing to play brain teasers with you. It's so unskilled.

"Brothers, please take a rest. Now it's the turn of the talented scholars here who are good at arithmetic. They can't wait."

After hearing this, those who participated in the guessing game, although everyone was still not satisfied, could only suppress their excitement and wait for others to perform.

"Brothers, scholars, because you have so many people and you have so many prizes, I am so small and can't afford to make a fortune. Fortunately, I have received strong sponsorship from the charming Mr. Xu. Please give him a round of applause to express your gratitude!" Chu Congrong said, pulling many people over.

King's arms are raised high. Timely advertising is a must.

The crowd of onlookers also cooperated and burst into fierce applause.

Mr. Xu was watched by everyone and received fierce applause. The prodigal boy became very arrogant and said excitedly: "I Xu Xu is a fool who has no knowledge and a lot of money. I believe all the talents have already known that. Although I am stupid, I can't do it."

I admire talented people the most! Everyone here is the best among people, and I have decided that as long as anyone can defeat the little girl today, I will reward you with ten taels of silver, plus a hundred books from the academy!"

Wow——

The scene was immediately filled with excitement and excitement.

He is truly a rich man, but it is so inhumane to be rich!

Twelve taels is already a large amount, and it can be enough for an ordinary farm family to live for two or three years. A hundred books are worth more than two hundred taels! In the future, whenever the juniors pick up books, they will think that they have contributed to the work with their talents.

How honorable it would be if the academy won it back!

Chu Congrong glanced at the wealthy man fiercely. Is this guy trying to cheer himself up, or is he deliberately creating stumbling blocks for himself and making it more difficult?

Those students who participated in the arithmetic comparison began to ask Chu Congrong excitedly how to compare. Chu Congrong thought for a while and said: "You can each ask a question, and after discussing together, we will select three of them, and I will answer them one by one.

As long as I get one wrong answer, I lose. Is this fair?"

"What if you take a long time to answer?"

"Just order one stick of incense. If I can't answer, I lose." One stick of incense takes about forty minutes, which should be enough to solve three questions. Chu Congrong didn't want to spend too much time struggling. He had studied advanced mathematics.

, it is still possible to deal with these carbomi.

Everyone thought that this comparison seemed simple, but it would undoubtedly make it a lot more difficult for the little girl. They all recognized the plan and got together to discuss it.

Soon, three questions came out.

Question 1: Naughty boys were grazing, and three livestock stole the young seedlings. The seedling owner seized his cattle, horses, and sheep and demanded ten buckets of rice in compensation. The cattle, horses, and sheep ate different things, and the compensation was different. The sheep ate half of the horses, and the horses ate half of the cows. I dare to ask.

How much will each of the three animals pay?

Question 2: There are chickens and rabbits in the same cage. There are thirty-five heads on top and ninety-four legs on the bottom. How many chickens and rabbits are there in each cage?

Question 3: I, Daning, have a book called "Great Learning", which has a total of 34,685 words. A certain scholar read it in three days. It doubled every day. May I ask how many words the scholar read on the second day?

Chu Congrong was secretly happy, but deliberately pretended to look solemn.

The first question can be won with a one-dollar formula. The second question is a chicken and rabbit in the same cage, which is a question that has been passed over by the public. The third question is only about one-dollar equations, and the joy is almost zero. The only thing to pay attention to is

The first question involves fractions, and the unit conversion needs to be clarified. If one pound equals sixteen taels, I can’t afford to lose.

"Brother Tuhao, how many liters is one bucket worth?"

It would have been nice if there was an Internet connection, but Chu Congrong had no choice but to seek help on the spot.

"Haha, you don't even understand this and you dare to show off? Please beg me." The rich man was dancing happily, as if he was eager for Chu Congrong to give up quickly.

The people next to him were secretly happy when they saw this. They had seen the little girl swearing and being confident before, but she couldn't even understand the most basic common sense. How to win? It seems that a hundred books and ten taels of silver are easy to get.

The dead rich man didn't answer for a long time, with a look on his face that he wished you would die soon. He looked like a bitch. None of the participants said anything, looking at Chu Congrong with different expressions.

Chu Congrong decided to solve the last two questions first, so he blurted out without hesitation: "The answer to the second question: rabbit twelve, chicken twenty-three. The answer to the third question: nine thousand nine hundred and one cross."

The group of students competing in arithmetic first communicated with each other, and then fell silent with solemn expressions. This expression showed that Chu Congrong's agreement was undoubtedly right.

"Brother Tuhao, do you want to tell me or not? We still have to rush." ​​Chu Congrong was a little impatient. She just asked for the conversion unit. What's the problem?

"One dou for twelve liters." Mr. Xu gave the answer with a sly eye roll.

This question is quite simple. Let the sheep eat x, the horse is 2x, and the cow is 4x. Then the sheep is x=10/7, the horse is 10/7*2, and the cow is 10/7*4. Chu Congrong 1

She could get the answer within minutes, but how to express the fraction was a problem. She thought it might be easier to switch to liters, but she didn't know it was not an integer either.

She was just about to commit the crime when someone suddenly said next to her: "A fight is obviously worth 10 liters, why did this young master deceive the little girl? He can win without force."

Chu Congrong took a closer look and saw that he was an old man in his fifties, wearing a brown robe, with a strong bookish air, and a warm smile on his face, which gave people a sense of conviction.

"Grandpa, I believe you!" Chu Congrong glared at the rich man angrily, and was too lazy to convert and give the answer directly. I only care about what is right, it is your business not to understand: "The sheep will pay one and three-sevenths.

For a fight, the horse will pay two and six-sevenths of a fight, and the ox will pay five and five-sevenths of a fight."

Daning didn't have a formula for fractions yet, but the person who asked this question knew the answer, but the description was more complicated. He calculated it and found that Chu Congrong's answer was correct, so he had no choice but to nod to his companions.

"Hey, punch Baoshan Zhiya Academy and kick Taiping Dong'an Academy! The little girl is so domineering at a young age! When you have time, go to Zhiya Academy and see if your fists are hard enough." The old man recited the couplet.

Afterwards, Pianpian left.

Life must go on and making money must go on. Looking at a group of dejected students, Chu Congrong asked a question: "Brothers, you are all very talented. Don't be discouraged if you fail. How about I give you a question?"

"

"But you have to buy another cup of peanuts. Let me tell you, this question is very interesting. It consists of three questions. If you answer one correctly, you will be rewarded with a cup of peanuts; if you answer two correctly, you will be rewarded with one tael of silver; if you answer all three correctly, you will receive the ten points promised by Mr. Xu.

Take away two pieces of silver and a hundred books!"

When more than twenty people heard this, they all paid with dissatisfaction. It would be embarrassing if so many people couldn't deal with a little girl!

Seeing that more than 20 cups of peanuts were sold and more than 100 coins were obtained, Chu Congrong felt happy, so she asked her own question: "Someone took out three chessboards, with sixteen grids and twenty-four grids.

Thirty-six squares. He puts two grains of rice on the first square, doubles it on the second square, doubles it again on the third square, and so on. How many grains of rice are in the last square of each of the three chessboards?"

This question is to find the sixteenth, twenty-fourth and thirty-sixth power of two.

After hearing this, the students began to discuss one after another. Some of the impatient ones have already begun to calculate. If you don't understand the rules of calculation, it will not be so easy to rely on brute force. Alas, you can just go ahead and do the math. Don't blame me for the calculation.

Just fine.

Students who like arithmetic are busy, but students who like brain teasers are still waiting.

Seeing the impatient looks of these "children" who were older than herself, Chu Congrong knew that she could make a lot of money today. Just come, I promise to satisfy you.

But the old rules cannot be changed; buy another cup of peanuts.

"There are six steamed buns in the rice bowl. Each of the six children has one. Why is there another one in the bowl?"

"How to turn ice into water as quickly as possible?"

"What is the first thing everyone does when they wake up in the morning?"

…

"I know the second one! It's to put ice into hot water and burn it!"

"wrong!"

"Put it directly on the fire!"

"Sorry, that's not right either. The correct way is to just remove the radical of ice!"

As soon as the answer came out, some slapped their foreheads hard, and some slapped their thighs directly, which was extremely annoying. Well, as long as two points are removed from the word "ice", it becomes the word "water". What about roasting with fire and boiling in hot water, which doesn't take time and effort?

It couldn't have come so quickly.

Someone started to use their brains and said smartly: "The first one is easy. Of the six children, the strongest one drove away the weakest one. If there is one less person, there will be an extra steamed bun in the basin.

!”

As soon as he finished speaking, someone retorted that it was agreed that six people would share the steamed buns, but it became only five people, which was obviously wrong. Some people also said that six people could share the steamed buns, but because one of them didn't like to eat the steamed buns, the buns were left out.

.

The local tyrant seemed to have thought of something, and the people around him hesitated to speak. It was very difficult to bear it. At this time, someone shouted loudly: "I know, the last person took the basin away, so there is still one steamed bun in the basin. In fact,

Just one for each of the six people!”

Chu Congrong's eyes lit up and she said happily: "Congratulations to this great talent, it's absolutely correct! I will reward you with a cup of peanuts!"

The rich man glared at Chu Congrong angrily, as if blaming her for not letting him answer. Chu Congrong pushed him out and asked him to take Liu Lang to buy more peanuts. There were 60 or 70 people present, and everyone bought them.

After two rounds, there was not much left.

The activity continues, but very few people get the correct answer. When you rack your brains, the answer seems to be understood by a three-year-old child. For example, everyone will pronounce the word wrong, but it is just a typo, is it simple? But some questions are

When you think deeply, the answers are incredibly tricky. Of course, they are reasonable and do not allow you to refute. For example, you know something every time it comes, but you never see it. Can you think of it as the wind?

?

Many students have begun to doubt life, whether they are too stupid, not even as good as a little girl. However, they find it very interesting and addictive.
