Chapter 41: Gathering Bottle? The key to the success or failure of the super brain
Qing'er gently moved the hollow ball that could move up and down, her eyes full of confusion. Even though she was talented and well-read, she didn't know what kind of instrument it was.
"This thing is called 'abacus', and it is... my special calculation tool." Zhang Zixing, who has become accustomed to "plagiarism" business, did not even blush when he lied. "Nowadays, the name of the book "Abacus" is famous all over the world.
Everyone's arithmetic skills are also improving day by day, but it is really inconvenient to use arithmetic chips as a calculation tool, so I have been thinking hard for many years and finally created this thing recently. I don't dare to keep it secret, so I came here to share it with the lady."
Historically, before the invention of the abacus, people had been using small wooden sticks to perform calculations. These small wooden sticks were called "shuangchi", and calculations using abacus as a tool were called "shuangsuan". This is also based on "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic".
As for the calculation tools recorded in "Tian Suan", with the popularization of arithmetic, people's calculation ability is gradually improving, and arithmetic chips can no longer meet the demand. Therefore, Zhang Zixing promptly launched the "advance product" of the abacus. (There are also
Legend has it that it was first invented by a subordinate of the Yellow Emperor, so I will ignore it here.)
Under the curious gaze of Qing'er and Deng Chanyu, Zhang Zixing demonstrated and explained the concept, formula and usage of abacus. When Qing'er heard that this abacus is a new calculation tool invented by Mr. Zixing after years of hard work, his expression immediately changed.
She became serious and listened to his explanation attentively, for fear of missing a word. Although Deng Chanyu was not as studious and talented as Qing'er, she still had certain arithmetic skills, and was especially interested in this new thing, so she also listened.
Gotta be quite attentive.
Just after Zhang Zixing finished speaking the abacus formula, Deng Chanyu grabbed the abacus and began to operate it based on the formula from memory. It was confirmed with ordinary arithmetic. With the success of each attempt, the look of surprise on her face became stronger:
"Seven one plus three, seven two plus six...I know!"
Qing'er's mathematical knowledge is much better than that of Deng Chanyu, and her understanding of abacus is also deeper. Naturally, she also wants to operate it. Unfortunately, she only has one abacus, and it is difficult to compete with Deng Chanyu, so her eyes can't help but dim. Zhang Zixing
Knowing her mood, he explained the knowledge of abacus in detail and promised to make a few more abacus and send them to her tomorrow, which made her mood improve.
"Little thief, my sister is right, I can't tell you are really a bit talented." Deng Chanyu was a little addicted to playing, and her impression of Zhang Zixing gradually improved. Judging from her expression, "somewhat talented" was already given to someone.
People rate it quite highly.
Qing'er understood the great significance of the advent of the abacus, stood up solemnly, and gave a big gift to Zhang Zixing: "This thing made by Mr. Sir can simplify the complex and greatly improve the speed and accuracy of calculation. It is of great significance. It can be said to carry forward the past and open up the future. Qing'er
On behalf of all the arithmetic enthusiasts in the world, I would like to thank you sir!"
Zhang Zixing hurriedly returned the gift and said: "I heard that the young lady's father has an old relationship with the officials in the court. Could you ask your father-in-law to present this thing to the court so that the abacus can be quickly popularized in the world and put to its best use?"
Qing'er's face showed surprise: "Sir, if you have such intention, Qing'er should try his best. Today, as a wise sage, he naturally understands the importance of abacus. There will be rewards when the time comes. Qing'er would like to congratulate you first."
Zhang Zixing shook his head and said something that surprised the two women: "I asked your father-in-law to present the abacus to the court. There is only one condition, and that is that you must not reveal that I invented the abacus..."
"Why? This is a good opportunity!" Even Deng Chanyu felt incredible. When she came here a few days ago, she heard Qing'er talk about Mr. Zixing's status as a "declined noble": "I thought you, a little thief, had
He is talented, but unexpectedly he is a fool. If he can be appreciated by the emperor, he can revive his family business and enjoy prosperity and wealth. Why do you do this?"
"Wealth and fame are just a fleeting thing. How can the days of intrigue and walking on thin ice be as comfortable as wandering around in the clouds and wild cranes?" Zhang Zixing smiled slightly at Deng Chanyu, showing an indifferent expression. Deng Chanyu's eyes flickered and she actually did not make any more sarcasm.
Zhang Zixing suddenly remembered that many immortals and strangers in Fengshen Romance seemed to like to compose songs when they appeared or started fighting, so he pulled out a passage from "The Hermit" by Meng Jiao, a poet from the Tang Dynasty, in the Super Brain database. Someone took a deep breath
He took a breath, looked away to the horizon, and showed a peaceful smile on his face. He looked a bit like he was born out of the dust, and he chanted in a low voice: "Listen to me composing a song: Baoyu should not come out of its pure form. Before it comes out of its pure form, it becomes dust."
The pine bogeyman is afraid of coming out of the mountain. When he comes out of the mountain, he first pays for his salary. The gentleman hides behind the stone wall, and the Taoist book is his neighbor. When he is sleeping, he thinks about its meaning, and the taste of indifference becomes true."
After he finished reciting the plagiarized verse coquettishly, he secretly glanced at the two women from the corner of his eyes, and sure enough he saw the admiration in their eyes, including Deng Chanyu, who couldn't help but feel proud.
Meng Jiao's "The Hermit" was indeed extraordinary. The two ladies were immediately impressed by Mr. Zixing's literary talent and integrity. Deng Chanyu's impression of him in particular was greatly changed.
Since the last suggestion to recommend Zhang Zixing as an official was rejected, Qing'er already knew that this wizard was an expert who was "indifferent to fame and wealth", so he did not give much advice on this issue: "Sir, he is an expert hermit, Qing'er admires him, but
After presenting the abacus, the court will definitely ask about the origin of this thing. What should Qing'er do? How about I introduce my father to my husband and let my father make the decision?"
See your dad? Your dad is the number one civil servant under this Sanren. Unless I imitate you and cover my face with a veil, my identity will not be revealed immediately? Zhang Zixing quickly refused: "This fact is easy. Miss Qing'er said that the abacus is
Made by you..."
"How can this happen!" Qing'er immediately understood what he meant and flatly refused: "Sir, do you want to trap Qing'er into injustice? Although Qing'er is not talented, he cannot do such a shameless thing!"
"Oh, Miss Qing'er, can't you bear to let this abacus be lost? Forget it, I will destroy it myself." Zhang Zixing deliberately made an angry gesture, picked up the abacus, and prepared to throw it down.
"Wait a minute!" As Zhang Zixing expected, Qing'er and Deng Chanyu stopped him almost at the same time.
Qing'er stared at Zhang Zixing and said slowly: "The master has taught Qing'er the secret of abacus. Even if he destroys this abacus, Qing'er will make a new one according to his memory. The abacus is of great significance to arithmetic, Qing'er
I can't stand the torture of the secret in my heart, and sooner or later the abacus will come out from Qing'er's hands. Alas, sir, you are really scheming!"
Zhang Zixing couldn't help but admire Qing'er's quick thinking. He can be said to be the person with the highest IQ he has seen since arriving in the Shang Dynasty. Even Bigan, who has the Qiqiao exquisite heart, is slightly inferior to him. In this way
This woman, who is also his confidante, can he watch her live in silence for the rest of her life as an accessory to men like ordinary women?
"Miss Mingjian, Zixing created the abacus, not for fame and fortune, but for the development of arithmetic. I have made the lady a close friend. I know that the lady is a human being, so I was forced to take this trick and put the lady in trouble. I apologize in advance.
"Zhang Zixing said with a guilty look on his face, but in his heart he felt that his acting skills were becoming more and more outstanding, and he almost really devoted himself to the role of this master who regarded wealth as a floating cloud - if he could join the entertainment industry now, he would be able to make it at least.
Be the movie king.
Qing'er sighed and said nothing more. Zhang Zixing could hear the melancholy in her sigh, and no longer threatened her, but just started chatting. Qing'er knew that he wanted to change the topic, but she still cooperated and talked from time to time to avoid embarrassment.
, Zhang Zixing secretly praised it and also made an important decision in his heart.
Deng Chanyu chatted with Zhang Zixing for the first time, but she didn't expect that this "disciple"'s knowledge was as extensive as Qing'er said. He also spoke more words and asked questions one after another, which turned out to be even weirder than Qing'er.
Bizarre, almost like "One Hundred Thousand Whys", a famous early childhood education book in the 21st century. Fortunately, with the superintelligent database, combined with the Shang Dynasty's cognitive level, he finally parried Deng Chanyu's machine gun-like continuous attacks.
Asking questions, I let out a sigh of relief. It seems that Miss Yu is really a "problem" girl.
Zhang Zixing also discovered an interesting phenomenon. From the questions asked by Deng Chanyu, we can see that her way of thinking is very unique. She dares to ask many questions that challenge the authority of existing knowledge. Once it arises, her imagination is as rich as the imagination, and even
Even Qing'er can't compare. But her purpose is just to get answers or enjoy the fun of question and answer. She doesn't delve too deeply into the right or wrong or the meaning of the answer itself. But Qing'er is different. She thinks carefully about many answers.
, corroborating what they have learned in their hearts, and constantly absorbing new knowledge. It can be said that although the question was raised by Deng Chanyu, it was Qing'er who benefited the most.
"Even my master cannot answer my lady's questions so continuously, and your answers are much more interesting than my master's... I guess you are capable, little thief." Deng Chanyu was like a disciple taking a test.
Like a teacher, he nodded with satisfaction and directly upgraded his level from "somewhat talented" to "skilled": "In this case, even if the feud between me and you is really wiped out, I won't trouble you again."
"Real" write-off? The girl's promise to Qing'er to give up revenge was a sign of betrayal. Most likely, she wanted to use the five-color stone to launch a sneak attack when Qing'er was gone... Thinking of this, Zhang Zixing couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, thinking of the future generations.
There is a famous Internet saying: "No matter how poor you are, you must not give up education, and no matter how provoking you are, you must not offend evil women" - it is indeed a golden rule.
"Little thief, just now my sister mentioned that you failed to refine the magic weapon, why did you actually know how to refine the magic weapon?" When the magic weapon was mentioned, Deng Chanyu's curiosity surged again.
Of course, Zhang Zixing couldn't tell the truth. He just made up a half-truth and half-false story, saying that according to the fragments of ancient books, he used the power of thunder to turn sand and stone into crystal. However, the container in his hand could not store too much thunder.
, so it failed repeatedly.
"Little thief, what you just said... can sand and gravel turn into crystal?" Deng Chanyu's almond-shaped eyes suddenly widened. For her, crystal stone is by no means an ornament or treasure. Its importance is far beyond
The imagination of ordinary people.
"Yes, it's a pity that the ancient book is incomplete. After repeated experiments, I can only figure out a few clues. It's just that it was difficult to collect mines that day. Not only was it very dangerous, but it was also limited by the weather, so the progress was very slow."
"'A bit of knowledge'? Could it be that you can already create crystals?" Deng Chanyu heard the clues in his words and asked immediately.
Zhang Zixing saw that Deng Chanyu seemed to be very concerned about the manufacture of crystals, and suddenly thought of the five-light crystal she used to injure Jiang Wenhuan last time, and seemed to have some realization in her heart, and replied: "Yes, it's a pity that I just made a little bit.
The power of the sky thunder has been used up..."
Deng Chanyu frowned and said: "What kind of container did you use to collect thunder? Is it an ordinary jade bottle? How stupid! Why not use a thunder bottle?"
Thunder accumulating bottle? Is there such a container that can meet the conditions for accumulating electric energy? Zhang Zixing's eyes suddenly widened.
