Chapter 190 Arithmetic Examination
Fan Zeng walked out of the examination room with his bag and saw many people coming out. Some of them obviously knew each other and were gathering together to talk quietly.
After passing several people gathered together like this, Fan Zeng heard these people discussing the situation of the exam they just took: What did you choose for this multiple-choice question? What did you fill in that fill-in-the-blank question?
The expression of one of them changed and he said "Oh, it's over!". He obviously chose a different answer from the others, and he would not get points for that question.
Hearing this made Fan Zeng look strange, giving him a novel feeling that he had never had before, but he couldn't tell what it was, it was very fresh anyway.
More people did not communicate with others, but found a place to sit alone, or took out the water and dry food prepared in advance and started drinking and eating, or closed their eyes and waited for the next exam to come.
The people of Qin obviously paid great attention to the Xianyang Examination. They set up many tables, chairs and benches to give all the candidates a place to rest. In order to prevent them from freezing, they also piled firewood and set up stoves. , but the weather was nice today and I couldn’t use it.
Fan Zeng also found a place to sit down and took out the water and food he had prepared.
After the exam just now, he felt a little hungry and thought about something while eating.
He came to Xianyang this time not only to take the Xianyang exam, but also to know more about Li Nian.
In the eyes of many knowledgeable people in the world today, so many changes in Qinhui are inseparable from Li Nian.
Following King Qin and becoming emperor, Li Nian's name also spread throughout the world and became known to everyone in the world.
He made the bench he is sitting on now, the new plow, the tofu, and the paper used in today's exam. These things alone are enough to prove his talent.
What's more, all knowledgeable people generally believe that Qin's modification of Qin laws, changes to the official system, the establishment of a public opinion platform, and the change of the previous methods of governing the people are all related to Li Nian, which further proves his talent. !
Because before Li Nian appeared, the way Qin governed the country and the people was completely different from now, and it was also quite different.
And these differences only happened after Li Nian appeared. How could people not suspect that it was him who made Qin change?
And the Emperor of Qin was not even greedy for his merits and allowed Li Nian's name to be spread throughout the world.
In addition to the fact that Emperor Qin was very proud and disdainful of coveting Li Nian's achievements and trusted Li Nian very much, there is another explanation: Li Nian was a very talented person, and Emperor Qin wanted to use his talents, but he was worried that coveting his achievements would lead to serious consequences. It made Li Nian unwilling to serve Qin anymore.
Fan Zeng glanced at the other references. It is estimated that many people have the same idea as him. They all came for Li Nian and wanted to know who he was and how talented he was. Of course, the most important thing was The question is, why should he help Qin if he is such a talented person?
After arriving in Xianyang, Fan Zeng got more news about Li Nian: Emperor Qin promised a princess to marry him on the day he became emperor, the map of the world was from his hand, and the Huns mission When he came to visit, the Hun prince was killed by him.
How big a crime is it to kill an envoy from another country or a prince from another country without permission?
But Emperor Qin did not pursue it...
These news all revealed Li Nian's talent and Emperor Qin's trust in Li Nian.
But such talented people assist Qin, which is not a good thing for Fan Zeng who wants to regain Chu. The hero of the enemy is my enemy.
After eating, Fan Zeng checked his pocket to make sure that all the things he had prepared for the exam were still there, and then he closed his eyes on the bench and rested.
The familiar "dang" sound sounded again, and Fan Zeng opened his eyes. He had finished recuperating, was full of energy, and was in excellent condition, ready for the next exam.
I just have to take a test on arithmetic in this class, but I don’t know how to test it? Other candidates also started to move. Qin Zu reminded: "The next exam will start soon. If you want to go to the toilet, please go to the toilet quickly. This exam will last for one and a half hours."
< br>
After being reminded by Qin Zu to go to the toilet, Fan Zeng entered the examination room No. 8 and found his seat No. 23 and sat down.
He noticed that there was a new person in front of him. He was not the Qin official who had been asked during the exam, but this person was also talking to them about the things to note before the exam.
Fan Zeng understands, and he will probably tell them once every exam, and this will become a rule for future exams.
With another "Dang", the new Qin official raised a bag: "This is the exam paper for this class. This exam is arithmetic, and it takes one and a half hours."
After speaking, the Qin official took out the examination paper from his bag and distributed it. It was the same as the examination paper during the policy question. It was also made of paper. It also had questions in the seven languages. It also had choices and fill-in-the-blanks, but it was the last category. The question became a short answer question.
What's even more different is the content of the question. Fan Zeng only glanced at it and knew that he probably, maybe, maybe... wouldn't be able to finish the exam.
Similar to the Cewen test paper, there are several scoring questions: Question, if three or nine are equal to each other, what is the number?
One, twenty-four; two, thirty-five; three, twenty-seven; thirty-nine.
But when you get to the ninth level, the difficulty begins: Question, there are the following twelve squares, put a grain of rice in the first square, and put a grain of rice in the second square Put two grains of rice in, and put four grains of rice in the third square... Then put twice as many grains of rice in each square as the previous square. How many grains of rice should be put in the twelfth square?
One, four thousand three hundred and ninety-six; two, four thousand ninety-six; three, four thousand five hundred and ninety-six; four, four thousand seven hundred and ninety-six.
After Fan Zeng started reading, he did some math and found out that this question is simple. There are eight grains of rice in the fourth grid, sixteen grains of rice in the fifth grid, and thirty-two grains in the sixth grid...
< br>But after doing the math, Fan Zeng discovered something was wrong. Why did the number increase so fast?
At the seventh grid, it had not passed a hundred, but by the tenth grid, it had already exceeded a thousand, and by the twelfth grid, it had reached four thousand and ninety-six.
Although he has calculated the answer, Fan Zeng seems to understand some truth from this question. Many things in the world, including the increase in the population, seem to be explained by this.
This is exactly the explanation Li Nian gave when he asked Ying Zheng about the clan before he proclaimed himself emperor. The clan must not be raised as pigs, otherwise the clan will multiply from generation to generation and the huge clan population will Seriously dragging down Da Qin.
Thus came the clan reform policy announced by Ying Zheng at the ceremony of proclaiming himself emperor. The power of the clan cannot be ignored, but it cannot be restricted too much.
After finishing the ninth question, which was already a bit difficult for him, Fan Zeng looked at the tenth question: Question, if one and two, and three, and four... are connected and added to eighty, what is the final counting geometry? ?
One, three thousand two hundred and fifty; two, three thousand two hundred and forty; three, four thousand nine hundred and forty; four, six thousand four hundred and eighty.
Fan Zeng was stunned when he saw these options. He kept increasing them to eighty. Would it be so big?
Obviously each of the numbers does not exceed a hundred, but the total number reaches at least three thousand!
But how to calculate it?
Fan Zeng pondered for a while, adding eighty numbers, the options are still such a large number, I'm afraid I won't be able to calculate it in a while, skip this question, look at the next question, and wait for a while to finish it Let’s answer the question again.
