The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 778
[Chapter 778 Arithmetic Genius]
No matter what time it is, Mr. Yiyi’s arrival always makes the whole class quiet.
The children in the liberal arts academy were no different. When they heard this, Mr. Arrival, they all hurriedly returned to their seats and stood upright without saying a word.
It wasn’t until the gentleman stood still in front of the podium that he stood up respectfully, bowed, and thanked: “Students have met you, sir.”
The arithmetic gentleman just nodded, took out a book “Basic Arithmetic” from his arms and placed it on the table. Go up, then look around, with a serious expression, and say: “You must have heard from your family more or less what happened in front of Xin’an Houfu yesterday, right?” As soon as
these words came out, the whole school suddenly became lively. .
The children all discussed in a low voice, and finally replied in unison: “I’ve heard about it, sir!”
Mr. Arithmetic still nodded lightly, with a calm look, and continued: “This competition is about something. The stakes are very high, related to your future imperial examinations and the future destiny of the imperial court.
Therefore, no matter who is proficient in arithmetic, you must do your best.
Sir, I will give each of you a test paper and you will take the test well. , if you do well in the exam, you can represent our new academy and compete with those scholars.
If you win, the dean will give you a bonus of five hundred taels!
Of course, the importance of this matter is far more than five. One hundred taels of silver, you are all the future pillars, the face of our new academy, you must take the exam well!”
At this point, he paused and looked at each scholar with an extremely solemn expression.
When the children saw this scene, their expressions became serious, and they no longer looked like their playful and smiling faces before.
Because they know what kind of tasks they shoulder.
They are all the faces of new colleges. They may not be as good as the scholars of the Polytechnic College in some aspects now, but their development potential is greater than those scholars.
They are the future of new colleges.
When Mr. Arithmetic said this, he sighed leisurely and continued: “The difficulty of this test paper is relatively high. You have just learned arithmetic not long ago, so it is normal for you to be confused. When you see the test paper, you will be able to do what you can.” Just do your best, forget it if you can’t do it, sir, I don’t blame you.”
The math teacher looked worried.
He is not a scholar and has never obtained any honors.
Even before coming here, I had never read any books.
This Wen Zou Zou’s speaking style was only learned after studying it with several other gentlemen in the past few months.
Therefore, the changes in the imperial examination actually had nothing to do with him.
However, listening to the discussion among several gentlemen in the academy, he vaguely understood something.
It seems that this change in the imperial examination was prepared for the academy.
If the imperial examination becomes a reality, the development of new-style academies will be at a higher level in the future.
From now on, the original private schools will gradually decline, more and more people will be able to study, and there will be more and more new colleges.
Therefore, this gentleman has a worried expression, hoping that his students can live up to their expectations.
But, on the other hand, he knew that it would not be good to put such a heavy burden on these children.
Oops,
my mind is always in a mess. I don’t know what I’m talking about or what I’m thinking.
Mr. Arithmetic shook his head and handed out the test paper in a daze. Then he returned to his podium and said with a smile: “Answer well. Don’t talk to each other. Don’t peek. It’s okay if you can’t answer.” This
is for the older people in the Polytechnic College!”
After saying this, the children seemed much more relaxed, and they all took out the prepared charcoal and started to answer.
The whole school was quiet.
Then, gradually, the children’s expressions changed.
Everyone frowned, including the clever Zhao Hao, who sighed and shook his head from time to time.
Everyone can see that this question is a bit difficult.
Of course, when you compete with those scholars, they don’t care about your age.
Therefore, no matter what, the strongest group of people must be selected.
The difficulty of this test paper was set according to the scholars from the Polytechnic College. How could a group of children from the Liberal Arts College master it?
But
in this quiet voice, there was a voice that seemed so crisp.
The sound of swishing gradually resounded throughout the entire school.
Everyone, including Mr., couldn’t help but look in the direction of the sound.
It’s Brother Chen Zhao!
Everyone couldn’t help but sigh, and then they understood something.
Mr. Arithmetic looked at Chen Zhaodi and felt a sense of hope.
This kid learns everything quickly, especially arithmetic.
I still remember that in the first class, no child could figure out addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, but she knew it better than anyone else.
Although I have never read any arithmetic classics, my calculations are extremely smooth.
Maybe it has something to do with her family running an inn.
But no matter what, this child does have a talent in arithmetic that ordinary people don’t have.
The gentleman knew this very well.
In just three or four months, this child finished reading “Basic Arithmetic”.
Even though this arithmetic is basic, it is actually quite difficult.
Even when I got older and went to the Polytechnic College to study, I still used this “Basic Arithmetic”.
In other words, the only formal arithmetic classic produced by Zhuxuanzhai is “Basic Arithmetic”.
During this period of time, Mr. Na also read a lot of arithmetic classics that he had never seen before, such as “The Classic of Arithmetic Calculation” and “A Summary of Algorithms”. These are arithmetic classics that have been passed down for thousands of years and have been passed down for hundreds of years.
But in his opinion, it was as childish and extremely simple. Compared with “Basic Arithmetic”, it was really far behind.
Therefore, one can imagine how powerful this brother Chen Zhao is.
Although this arithmetic gentleman has never competed with Chen Zhaodi, in his opinion, if he really competed, he might not be able to beat him.
It’s just such an exaggeration.
The arithmetic student stared blankly at Chen Zhaodi, who was writing furiously, and a sense of hope arose in his heart.
Maybe
Zhaodi can really get good grades and become one of those five people, representing the new academy to fight against those scholars!
If he wins, not to mention Mr. Arithmetic like him, but also the entire liberal arts academy, the entire new style academy, and the entire Xin’an Houfu will be proud of it!
After all, Chen Zhaodi was really a child
or a girl,
so he defeated those scholars.
That’s
what Mr. Arithmetic thought, and he smiled.
