The son does all kinds of evil?I sentenced him to be executed all over the house!

Chapter 98

What a confidence this is!
Qian Duoduo turned around, took the counting chip from a craftsman next to him, and tapped it.

"Master Xiao, you are useless even for calculation."

He took out the abacus from another craftsman beside him and shook it lightly.

The beads on the abacus collided and made a rattling sound.

"You don't even need to use an abacus, so you dare to say that there can be no problems with your calculations?"

Qian Duoduo's voice suddenly became louder.

When the craftsmen outside the house heard his words, they stopped their work in doubt, stood where they were, and secretly looked into the workshop.

Xiao Yi looked at him with a funny face.

Can this guy finally bear it?
There is obviously a problem with the forge department, and even more so with the entire Ministry of Industry.

The documents I read just now, as well as the raw material lists from various places, have given me a lot of information.

Now it depends on how much money there is, when will it be unbearable.

Xiao Yi didn't care about this clown-like figure in front of him.

What he really wanted to deal with was the forces behind the Ministry of Industry.

It is a huge moth hiding behind the Ministry of Industry and the entire Great Qin Dynasty.

With a turn of his mind, Xiao Yi analyzed his current situation in an instant.

I also thought about what to do next.

I have to stay in this forge for a while, and investigate thoroughly before I can collect more information!

This so-called Qian Duoduo must be someone's dog leg.

Play with him now.

Xiao Yi calmly looked at Qian Duoduo in front of him, and nodded indifferently.

"These are the most basic addition and subtraction of numbers. I don't need calculations or an abacus. Mental calculations are enough."

"If it's more complicated, you only need to use paper and pen to calculate the draft."

Qian Duoduo obviously didn't expect him to answer like this, and he couldn't react immediately.

And behind him, those craftsmen and deacons also opened their mouths and stared at him stupidly.

Outside the workshop, there have been some discussions.

"What's going on in here? Is the new forge master reviewing the paperwork?"

"It seems to say that you don't even need counting sticks and abacus at all, you just need to do mental calculations."

"This is too ridiculous. Those lists are extremely complicated, let alone those engineering material lists. Even those of us old experts may not be able to calculate clearly. Can we do mental arithmetic?"

"I heard that this new forge master has a lot of background, maybe there is something special about him?"

"I heard that the surname is Xiao. It seems to belong to the same family as Mr. Xiao from the Jingzhao Mansion?"

……

Hearing the discussions outside the workshop, Qian Duoduo finally came to his senses.

He was amused by Xiao Yi.

A ferocious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he finally let go of all his flattery, and walked to the big table.

He lowered his head and studied the manuscript papers that Xiao Yi had applied for.

It was densely written with a bunch of strange things, which he had never seen before.

Just relying on these ghost symbols, can you really calculate quickly?
Still fucking mental arithmetic?
Qian Duoduo laughed out of anger.

"Master Xiao!"

"I heard that you are Confucianism, Taoism, Martial Arts, both fourth-rank, but I have never heard that you can tell fortunes by pinching your fingers!"

"The art of Zhou Yi, but only the immortals have the opportunity to learn it."

"And not all immortal sects, but those immortal sects who are good at reasoning about heavenly secrets have such supernatural powers."

"It has never been seen that they use the technique of Zhou Yi to calculate these documents and calculate these account books."

Qian Duoduo straightened up, with a smug look on his face, he squinted at Xiao Yi.

"Besides, I had the chance to meet several Taoists who were proficient in the art of Zhouyi before, and I have also done some research on this kind of thing."

"I've never seen the ghostly symbols on your draft."

"Master Xiao!"

"Although you are the head of the forge department, the involvement in the Ministry of Industry is huge. If you can handle it so casually, I will definitely join you for a copy!"

Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows, and looked at the other party casually, as if he was looking at a clown.

Take a copy for yourself?
Just use this kind of thing to scare me?

He didn't use any spiritual power, just looking at Qian Duoduo lightly like this brought him quite a lot of pressure.

Qian Duoduo originally wanted to continue talking, but at this moment he suddenly fell silent.

He suddenly remembered that the man in front of him was a Confucianism, Taoism, Martialism, double fourth-rank powerhouse.

Moreover, he was quite courageous, and dared to defy the order openly.

If you make him anxious and kill yourself right here, I'm afraid...

Qian Duoduo shuddered.

His calf was a little soft, and he swallowed.

"Uh, Lord Xiao, look, I'm not making trouble with you unreasonably."

"It's really because what you said just now is a bit exaggerated, which makes me a little unbelievable."

"Otherwise, this is very good. I will give you two questions on the spot. As long as you pass, I will believe what you just said."

"Make sure that the deacons in charge of supervision come over and explain clearly to you."

Xiao Yi looked at Qian Duoduo whose temperament changed so quickly, and felt more and more interesting in his heart.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Qian Duoduo pondered for a while and came up with a question.

"Master Xiao, as long as you can calculate the answer to this question within the time of a stick of incense."

He stared at Xiao Yi cautiously, and began to speak.

"Take ten cups."

"Put a pebble in the first cup."

"Put two stones in the second cup."

"The same goes for each of the subsequent cups. How many stones are there in the last ten cups?"

After all, the flattering smile returned to his face, but there was a hint of a knife hidden in his smile.

"What you said just now is that you can do mental arithmetic, so there is no need for counting sticks and abacus."

After speaking, Qian Duoduo walked to that table, picked up the cup of hot tea, and took a sip into his mouth.

This cup of tea was brought to Xiao Yi by him just now, and now it has entered his own mouth.

Qian Duoduo used the teacup to hide the expression on his face.

It took me more than half an hour to figure out this arithmetic problem before.

And I got it wrong several times along the way.

Since this Xiao Yi is so confident, he doesn't even need an abacus to calculate, I want to see how he can figure it out?
Can you really count in your head?

Isn't this bullshit?
The several deacons and craftsmen present looked at each other several times, and they all felt that Manager Qian was deliberately causing trouble.

How can such a problem be solved by mental arithmetic?

Not to mention, there is no use of abacus and calculation.

Xiao Yi looked at Qian Duoduo with a wicked smile on his face, and felt that he was more like an acrobatic clown.

The zeroth power of two to the tenth power of two is something that many students have to memorize in their previous lives.

The first cup is a stone, and it is doubled later, how many stones will there be in the last ten cups?
Isn't this the ninth power of two?

Xiao Yi spoke calmly.

"A total of 510 two stones."

"puff!"

Qian Duoduo took a sip of tea, and because she was choked, her face flushed a little, and she looked at Xiao Yi in disbelief.

"Cough, cough, what did you just say?"

Because of being choked, Qian Duoduo could only cough non-stop. His eyes seemed to be falling off due to the coughing.

He had no choice but to pat his chest with one hand and point at Xiao Yi with the other, and he couldn't say a word for most of the day.

The reason why he reacted so strongly was because he himself had calculated the question just now.

It took him at least half an hour to figure it out.

And this Xiao Yi got the correct answer in just a split second.

This made Qian Duoduo feel like a waste wood.

And behind him, the craftsmen and deacons were stunned, and their expressions were disbelief.

"Is it true or false?"

"It's not made up, is it?"

"Looking at Guanshi Qian's reaction so much, I'm afraid it's the correct answer."

"It's not certain, Guanshi Qian may have just choked on the tea."

……

What Xiao Yi did just now was really astonishing.

Even if he was standing in front of him, the craftsmen couldn't help talking.

Xiao Yi was just cold, and glanced at Qian Duoduo.

"Checking."

His voice was low, but with a touch of unprecedented confidence.

A deacon looked at several colleagues around him, and without talking nonsense, he picked up the abacus and began to calculate.

The abacus crackled.

Even if he is an old master in this area, his fingers can calculate quickly like afterimages, but it still takes a certain amount of time to calculate.

Qian Duoduo felt more and more depressed when he heard the sound of those abacus striking together.

He was present, the only one who clearly knew the final answer.

Coughing lightly again, he looked at Xiao Ye with a rolling look in his eyes.

His lips trembled slightly, and the deacon he was looking at, who was still calculating, looked at Xiao Yi again.

"Well, Mr. Xiao, the calculation is still going on over there."

"Then your calculations are really too fast. I suspect that you have calculated this topic before, so, just mentioning it casually, that..."

"Again, let me ask two more questions. If you can answer them correctly, I will, I will..."

His mouth stammered a little, but he continued without "I will".

Xiao Yi looked at him with disdain, and raised his head slightly.

"You make a question."

Those three simple words revealed an unparalleled confidence.

Qian Duoduo was even more annoyed by the tone of voice that sounded like an order.
