To support exiled officials, start by worshipping the God of Wealth

Chapter 27 Answer 3 questions correctly and get a shop as a reward

[Congratulations to the host for passing the "Worship the God of Wealth" and obtaining a carriage x1, which has been put into the inventory. ]

Jiusu sat up from the bed and woke up instantly. A horse carriage? This was a luxury in ancient times. The most convenient transportation in Chenjia Village was an ox cart. She parked the carriage in the yard and bought horse feed.

She untied the rope on the horse, touched the white horse's hair, and saw the white horse rubbed her cheek affectionately.

"As expected, it was given by the God of Wealth. It's really spiritual. From now on, your name will be Jieran."

Being alone, I am not afraid of the future.

Jie Ran: “Hiss~”

When Mrs. Lu heard the sound, she followed blindly.

"Su'er, why do I hear a horse neighing?"

"Mother has a really good eye." Jiusu took her hand and put it on the horse. When Lu Shi touched the horse, she shrank back in fear. "Jie Ran is very obedient."

The corners of Lu's mouth curled up into a smile, and she touched the horse's body with her hand and nodded, "It is indeed a good horse, you must take good care of it."

Suddenly, Jiusu's fingers paused slightly.

What did her mother-in-law call her just now, Su...Su'er? Thinking about it this way, she didn't know when she started calling her mother-in-law "mother". Her eyes moved slightly. Her marriage with Chen Zhao was in name only, but her relationship with her mother-in-law was getting better and better.

Been here for a long time.

Her mother-in-law was the best person to her.

She was sweeping the dust from the stable, looking at her mother-in-law washing the horse trough, and suggested, "Why don't you live with me?"

Mrs. Lu lowered her head, hesitated for a long time, shook her head and smiled bitterly: "Forget it, if you leave Zhao'er, you will get married in the future. From what I heard last night, the Qian family and the Jiang family fought for you. It will be difficult to find a husband if you take me with you. Besides, Zhao'er will come back, so what's the point of me following my daughter-in-law?"

Seeing this, Jiusu couldn't persuade him any more.

"Mom, if one day Chen Zhao and I were on opposite sides, who would you choose?"

After asking, she smiled to herself, what was there to choose? It seemed like she was being too sentimental.

Mrs. Lu looked up, and she seemed to see her daughter-in-law through her blindfolded eyes. She choked up and said, "I will stand by Zhao'er and always be by your side." She held Jiusu's hand, and the feeling of reluctance kept spreading in her heart.

Jiusu hurriedly advised: "Mom, don't be sad, it's my fault."

As the raindrops fell, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law hurried back to the yard. Jiusu lived in the master bedroom, while Lu was afraid of loneliness and didn't want to live alone in a yard, so she lived in the west room.

Settle the Lu family.

Jiusu went to the house that Manager Fang mentioned. There was a long line at the door. One person went in and one person came out, and the time between them was less than ten seconds. What kind of question is this? It's so difficult?

She put on her veil and patted it politely, "Brother, what's so difficult?"

"Some math problems." The man put his hand on his big belly, not knowing what to say. "I don't know if it's difficult or not. Anyway, it's been three days. Almost everyone in the town has come, but no one can figure it out."

Jiusu was surprised: "If it's so difficult, why are we still queuing?"

This team is extremely long, it has almost caused a sensation in the whole city.

The man smiled cheerfully: "What if I get the answer right? Then I can get this shop for free? And if I sell it, I won't have to worry about anything in my life."

It's free, and everyone wants a piece of it.

The servant opened the door and called out, "Next."

Jiusu also saw the man just now shaking his head and coming out. She stepped through the door and saw the questions on the table. The servant saw that it was a woman and shook his head helplessly, wasting his breath, "Can you read? Do you want me to help you read it?"

"No need." Jiusu said.

The servant suddenly realized that she was a lady from a wealthy family and could read. He became more polite and said, "Three questions, one stick of incense. If you can't figure it out, you can leave early. It's not shameful."

Jiusu nodded, and seeing that the hourglass had started to count down, he stole a glance at the person leaning on a recliner not far away, listening to music.

She sat down and looked at the questions above. Uh, math problems, quite simple ones. She bent over and did them carefully.

Question 1: There are seventy-five apples. How many can five people share?

Jiusu did the math mentally and wrote fifteen next to it.

Question 49: There are 100 chickens and rabbits in total, with a total of legs. How many chickens and rabbits are there?

Jiusu raised his eyebrows. Isn't this a chicken and a rabbit in the same cage? It was difficult when I was learning it, but now it seems quite simple. Let the chicken be x and the rabbit be y...

List the formula and calculate the answer.

1 rabbit and 48 chickens.

Question 3: There are 1,700 people, and each of them raises 78 pigs and 134 ducks. How many ducks and pigs are there in total?

1700x(78+134)

=1700x212

= (only)

Before the incense had burned out, Jiusu had already finished her calculations. She replaced the answers with numbers that the ancients could understand. At this time, Arabic numerals should not have been introduced yet. Jiusu handed the paper to the servant and said, "It's done."

"Please go out this way..." The servant woke up from his sleep when he heard the voice.

He took the paper and asked the person to leave as usual.

Jiusu's mouth twitched, "I have finished three questions. Can I buy your shop?"

The servant came back to his senses. He looked at the paper full of words and rubbed his eyes in disbelief. "Oh my God! Master! Someone has solved the three questions! You, you look!"

The person behind the screen also became nervous.

He directly opened the curtain and walked out, scanning the answer sheet, and exclaimed: "Every answer is accurate. May I ask what is your name, young lady?"

"Long."

"My last name is Qiu."

Qiu Shishu clasped his fists and gestured for the woman to sit down. Then, he ordered, "Go and serve some good tea. Also, close the shop door. I have found someone who can solve the problem. Let them all go."

Outside.

Just as the next person was about to go in, the servant came out with a smile on his face. He looked at the long queue and said loudly, "Someone has already answered the three questions. Dear bosses, madams, grandparents, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, please go home and have a rest."

Someone asked: "Who figured it out? Which Wenquxing was reincarnated?"

"That's not something you can say." The servant smiled, and no matter how they tried to trick him, he just left this sentence and turned back to the mansion.

At this time, Qiu Shishu was studying the steps of arithmetic. Whenever he encountered something he didn't understand, he would humbly ask for advice. After one stick of incense had passed, he felt like his brain was about to explode. What was "multiplication table", "vertical form", and "mental arithmetic"?

He had studied arithmetic for half his life, but he was still not as good as her mental arithmetic.

“It’s really shocking.”

Qiu Shishu had the paper copied several times and sent it out by carrier pigeon. Then he turned around and said embarrassedly, "Miss Jiu, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I'm really too excited. Please forgive me."

"Ahem, it's nothing." Jiusu cleared his throat, "I was introduced by Shopkeeper Fang. He wanted to buy a shop."

Qiu Shishu remembered the important matter and took out the pavement deed.

"Miss Jiu, if you answer three questions correctly, this shop will be yours."

"How can there be a free lunch in the world? What is Mr. Qiu...?" Jiusu looked at the deed on the table with confusion in his eyes.

Qiu Shishu smiled and said, "Don't worry, Miss Jiu, we won't force or make things difficult for you. It's just that my master needs talents like you. When he comes here, please meet him."
