"General Yang Zaixing is here!"

Suddenly, everyone's eyes flashed with astonishment.

It may be okay in the hearts of southern students, but for northern officials, most of them are deeply impressed by the name of Yang Shashen.

The two generals of Qi State, one is Zhang Liao and the other is Yang Zaixing.The two prefectures of Ningping and Ping in the northern border of Qi State were swept away by the two of them.

Now seeing a real person, many students know what a fierce general is.

"Under the order of the king, I will be in charge of the examination. Since you all want to vote for our country of Qi, you might join me as a minister in the same palace in the future. I hope you and others can use your true talents and learning, and you must not act like a villain."

Under the threat of the soldiers, all the students tensed up, bent down and saluted, and replied: "Students obey."

"Very good, the first calculation of the exam starts now, hand out the papers!"

Yang Zaixing gave an order, and two gentlemen walked in quickly at the door. One gentleman held a large stack of papers and handed them out one by one. raise.

The public quickly distributed them. When he arrived at Pang Tong's table, he first looked at the admission certificate, then put the test paper with his name written on it in front of him, and then put a blank piece of paper in front of him, indicating that Pointing to the upper left corner, he said softly: "Write your name and hometown here, and the paper must not be damaged."

Pang Tong nodded slightly, and just as his fingers touched the paper, he froze there.

Paper so fine and white as silk, is this Caihou paper?

Pang Tong was born in a family, and it was not an ordinary family, but a top wealthy family in Jingchu.Cai Hou paper is very familiar to him, and there are quite a few in his study.

But this thing is really precious, even if it is the Pang family, it is difficult to use and waste it at will.

More than 1 people participated in this exam. If everyone was given a Caihou paper, the cost would be quite high.Not to mention the paper in front of him is as thin as a cicada's wing, smooth as silk, and extremely flexible. This paper is used to make drafts. Even Pang Tong, who is well-informed, has to admire that this is really a great deal.

Although papermaking technology was invented long before the Eastern Han Dynasty, even Cai Lun advanced the technology of papermaking.However, due to material and technical problems, there are very few good-quality papers, and most of them are rough in workmanship. Capillarity often occurs when writing, and the written characters are not good-looking. Therefore, even though paper has been around for so long, people still recognize it more. Silk scripts and bamboo slips, such fine paper is very rare.

There are also many people who are also envious. If it is not because the paper must be signed and handed in, they would like to keep this paper. How can they be willing to use it?

But after all, the exam is more important, and people quickly accepted the praise for this piece of paper and focused their attention on the exam questions.

Looking at the question, many students present almost cried out.

At this time, arithmetic is just a small way. The vast majority of Confucian students often specialize in Confucian classics. Although they are involved in arithmetic, they don't waste too much time.

Even more people have never learned it at all.

On the test paper in front of me, there are only five questions, which may not seem like many, but it is not easy to answer them all.

Different from the other subjects, the subject of mathematics in this first subject was carefully researched by Cao Anmin himself.

If you get it for later generations, it will be at the elementary school level at most, but in this era, it is really like astronomy, and only the top smart people can comprehend it.

Many scholars were sweating on their heads.The exam is really not that easy!

Seeing the noisy noise in the examination room, Yang Zaixing frowned and shouted in a low voice: "Quiet! This is the king himself writing the question carefully, if you dare to make any noise, it is disrespect to the king, disrespect to the king, expulsion from the examination room, and the exam will be cancelled forever." Qualifications!" As soon as the words came out, the voice was barely silenced.

Cao Anmin poses the question.

Everyone was even more surprised.

Everyone in the world only knows that Lord Qi Wang is proficient in battle formation.Hundreds of battles, big and small, led to the prosperity of Qi today.But no one knew that King Qi was proficient in arithmetic.

If he can get good grades in the first subject of mathematics, it will definitely leave a great impression in King Qi's heart.

Thinking of this, all the students couldn't care less about the difficulty, and put all their thoughts into the topic.

Pang Tong looked at the topic in front of him.

"There are chickens and rabbits in the same cage today. There are 35 heads on the top and 94 feet on the bottom. How about the chickens and rabbits?" Suddenly the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and his face showed a hint of surprise and calmness.

This topic is difficult for ordinary people, but it is not difficult for him, a great talent in Jingchu.

After thinking over and over again, I quickly wrote down the answer on the test paper.

The first question is over, let's look at the second question. Now there are objects whose number is unknown. When counting three or three, there are two left, when five or five are counted, three are left, and when seven or seven are counted, two is left. Ask the geometry of the object.

With the foundation laid for the first question, this question is naturally not a problem.

Although Pang Tong is the nephew of Lord Pang De, he is a person of extremely noble status in Jingchu.But he is very good at learning, especially the theories of various schools of thought are involved.

Compared with Confucianism alone, Pang Tong may not be as good as Zhuge Liang, but when it comes to other academics, he must be far superior to Zhuge Liang.

Compared with other people, Pang Tong answered the questions quickly. In less than half an hour, he broke through four questions in a row, leaving only the last question.And the most unbelievable thing is that he has never opened the sour smell, but can get the answer purely by mental calculation.

Among the group of scholars who scratched their heads and tried their best to calculate their chips, this performance was simply called a god-man!

Yang Zaixing inspected the examination room, and was surprised to see him like this.

He walked up to him softly and looked at his answer. Although he didn't know the correct answer, he was definitely the one who made the fastest progress among the many students present.

Nodding in satisfaction, he raised his gaze and saw the name written on the manuscript paper.

"Xiangyang Pangtong, very good!"

Chapter 631

The same situation is going on in every examination room.

Such a question is unheard of in both poor and aristocratic families. Although there are only five questions, there is a full hour and a half of thinking time, but arithmetic is not classics, and it can be done better after a long time.

In the way of arithmetic, knowing is knowing, not knowing is not, there is no adulteration at all.

On the other side, Li Ru also broke through four questions in a row and came to the last question.It's just this question, he held his breath and concentrated on thinking, but unfortunately he still couldn't figure it out after a quarter of an hour.

"One opening is close, and three openings come out. They are also of different sizes and flow speeds. How can there be such a strange problem?"

Even Li Ru, who prided himself on his talents, was completely stumped at this time.The calculation chip in his hand never stopped, and he continued to deduce while calculating. Fortunately, he was proficient in arithmetic, and finally solved the problem satisfactorily before the exam was about to end.

When the examiner Xin Pi announced that the exam was over and the papers were collected, a big stone fell to the ground.

In the morning, the first subject is over, and in the afternoon is the second subject of classics examination.

Ever since he came out of the examination room, the whole city of Ye was boiling.

Those who do well in the exam will celebrate with excitement.Those who did poorly in the exam were ashamed and devastated.

Many of the more than 1 students didn't even solve a single question. At this time, they couldn't help but feel a little discouraged, not knowing what to do in the next exam.

There were even some people who started to pack their bags at this time, preparing to abandon the exam and leave.

The exchanges between students quickly spread the word about these topics.The three teachings and nine streams in the entire Yecheng have set off an upsurge in mathematics.

Mathematics, which I looked down upon at first, has suddenly become something that only the top figures in Qi country can understand.Many people were just ordinary shopkeepers, but after this exam, their status suddenly became extremely respected.
