Datang romantic little landlord

Use bamboo slices as beams, silk threads as buttons, and a copper plate hanging from both ends.In the late Spring and Autumn Period, the manufacturing technology of balances and weights was already quite sophisticated.

Li Wangyou deliberately asked Ma Zhou a difficult problem. He did not believe that this Tang literati could solve such logical reasoning problems.

The thief question I asked in Zhang Liang's mansion before stumped many big bosses, even Yang Zuan and the others couldn't figure it out.

As soon as he came up with this question, Ma Zhou frowned and began to think seriously.And those peasants were even more confused, thinking that there would be no answer to this question.

"Mr. Xiao Lang, is this intentional embarrassment? How could it be possible to find fake money with different weights from twelve copper coins after weighing it only three times?"

"Why don't you weigh it with your hands first? Which copper coin you think weighs differently before weighing it?"

"I'm afraid this question has no solution, right? How can such a question be made to embarrass others?"

"It seems that Mr. Xiao Lang doesn't want to accept Brother Ma Zhou as his disciple, so he deliberately made such unsolvable questions difficult."

Shopkeeper Ma, who was watching the excitement, was also stumped by Li Wangyou's question. He thought hard for a long time, but he also felt that there was no solution to this question.

Six copper coins against six copper coins... don't know the weight... five copper coins against five copper coins?Twelve copper coins... how to solve this problem?

"Xiao Langjun, is there really an answer to this question?" Shopkeeper Ma asked.

Li Wangyou nodded: "That's natural. Could it be that I would come up with an unsolvable question and deliberately make things difficult for Brother Bin Wang?"

meeting!

All the melon eaters nodded one after another, even Niu Wu nodded, Li Wangyou was so angry that he almost kicked his ass.

This song is absolutely necessary!

To actually treat his family's lord like this makes him feel so embarrassed.

Li Wangyou thought about it, and simply pulled Lao Cunzheng to testify, and whispered the answer to him.

It is not difficult to answer this question.

First, divide the twelve copper coins into three groups, one group of four.Then put the first group and the second group in the copper pans on the left and right sides of the scale.

If balanced, different copper coins are in the third group, if different...

Uh, for students who are interested, Li Wangyou recommends Baidu to write out the complete answering process of this question, which is really too wordy.

Tell the old villager about the process of solving the problem, but the old man is confused.After a while, he nodded uncertainly: "I understand, this problem is indeed solvable."

In fact, the old man didn't understand anything, what kind of division and division, weighing and weighing, he has long been dizzy.

It's so embarrassing that I can't even understand the answer.

So Lao Cunzheng nodded again: "I understand what Xiaolang said, Ma Zhou, think about it carefully."

The old village was pacing to the side, when it was surrounded by households from Dingzhou Village.

"Cunzheng, tell us about it, what is the name of this copper coin?"

"Don't worry, we won't tell Ma Zhou."

"Tell us the answer."

Tell your sister!The old man stared: "Have you finished all your work? Have you fed the horse? Then go brush the horse after feeding. The rope on the cart is tightened. Don't dare to drop these porcelains. Even if you sell them, you won't be able to accompany them!"

He yelled at him, but he frightened the farmers, and went to work separately.Lao Cun was waiting for the crowd to disperse before wiping the sweat from his forehead. This young man from the Li family is really bad!

Ever since Li Wangyou posed this problem to Ma Zhou, Ma Zhou seemed to have lost his soul. Whether he was eating or riding in the carriage, he was always in a daze, thinking about the twelve copper coins all the time.

He didn't even know that the carriage returned to Chang'an City, and he was completely immersed in this question.

Li Wangyou couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, he wouldn't use too much force to make Ma Zhou, the future prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, stupid?If that's the case, it's really a big sin.

The carriage entered the city from Guanghua Gate in the north of Chang'an City, and arrived at Chang'an West Market after crossing Si Tiao Street, where Ma's shop opened.

This time from Yinzhou to Chang'an City, I only rested on the road for two nights, and I ran eight or nine hundred miles in three days.

It wasn't until the horse-drawn carriage convoy drove to the entrance of the Ma family porcelain shop under the guidance of the Ma shopkeeper, that the shopkeeper Ma finally let out a sigh of relief, and his reputation and golden signboard were finally preserved.

Calling all the guys in the shop to come out to unload the trucks, and the farmers in Dingzhou Village also helping out, the shopkeeper Ma invited Lao Cunzheng and Li Wangyou into the shop, and immediately called the accountant to go to the warehouse to fetch gold to pay the bill.

Six hundred coins, equivalent to 100 taels of gold, the shopkeeper Ma paid the fare directly with gold, and left their address in Dingzhou Village, saying that they would definitely ask them to help deliver the goods next time.

After busying himself for a long time, he finally unloaded all the goods. Until now, Ma Zhou was still sitting motionless on the carriage, thinking about the twelve copper coins.

Seeing that it was getting late, Li Wangyou was discussing with the old villager, they might as well go back to Dingzhou Village today, and then go to the Chang'an County Government to deliver the errands, anyway, they still have a lot of time, so don't worry about it.

After traveling on the road for six or seven days, everyone felt a little homesick, so Lao Cunzheng nodded and agreed.

At this time, the evening drum had already sounded, and the horse-drawn carriage team left the city through the Golden Light Gate next to the West Market, bypassed the city wall, and headed straight for Hu County.

As soon as it got dark, the four-wheeled carriage team returned to Dingzhou Village, which caused a commotion in the village.

There are a total of 120 seven households in Dingzhou Village. This time, 70 people went to the spring transfer, accounting for almost two-thirds of the village's households.

Now the man in the family, his own child came back suddenly, which naturally attracted the whole village to welcome them.

The beauty boss also got the news, and with a smile on her face, she led Pei Lan out to welcome Li Wangyou home.

"Wangyou, thank you for your hard work, you...why do you smell so bad! Go take a bath!" Su Changqing was just about to go up to talk to Li Wangyou, but couldn't help covering his nose with his hands, and said in disgust.

Li Wangyou smelled his body, isn't it? Six or seven days of wind, food and dew, it's all rotten...

He smiled awkwardly, and ran straight back to the backyard to take a shower.

Li Wangyou ran away, but he forgot about Ma Zhou. The child was still sitting in the carriage, muttering to himself like he was doing math problems...

127 I Didn't See It

Li Wangyou took a comfortable hot bath, changed into a suit of clothes and came out, but was grabbed by the beautiful boss.

"Hey, why did you bring back a fool?"

Li Wangyou was taken aback, what fool?Immediately he realized that the beautiful boss was talking about Ma Zhou!

"Haha, he's not a fool, do you know who he is? Ma Zhou!"

Su Changqing was puzzled: "Who is Ma Zhou?"

Li Wangyou was speechless: "Uh, Ma Zhou is Li Shimin's future prime minister, isn't he amazing?"

"Then why is he like a fool?" Su Changqing asked curiously.

Li Wangyou had a good time, and told about Ma Zhou's desire to worship him as a teacher, and the fact that he had given Ma Zhou a logical problem, and the beautiful boss couldn't help but roll his eyes.
