Yu, Tong 'yu', Zhou Li said, is the six skills of teaching... The fourth is called five Yu.

The original meaning was to drive a carriage or chariot, but later it was extended to the use of other means of transportation, such as riding a horse and steering a boat.

With the development of the times, it has gradually focused more and more on the "driving science" in the management field, which includes leadership, decision-making, operations planning, control and other management methods.

Those present were all the country's management, and Ye Mengding didn't need any more explanation, so he directly asked the question.

"I would like to ask, five of you live together and share a pot of porridge every day. However, there are no measuring utensils and the containers are of different sizes. What kind of system should be used to ensure the greatest fairness? There is a quarter of an hour limit, please answer."

One pot of porridge, for five people, will definitely not be enough to eat, but if the distribution is fair, it can ensure that none of them will starve to death. The topic now for the five people is to let them design a reasonable distribution system.

It seems simple at first glance, but considering human nature, it is indeed a very troublesome thing to get fairness.

Including Zhao Mengqi, the five candidates began to think seriously, and even began to simulate dividing porridge in their minds, and then began to write down their plans on paper.

When a quarter of an hour came, the five people handed in their answer sheets and read them out in public as usual.

"Zhao Mengxi scrolls and chooses someone from Guanpu to share the porridge. If it is unfair, he will choose someone from Xinguanpu next time."

After listening to this paper, most people burst into laughter.

Song people are famous for their love of gambling. According to legend, Song Taizu and Taoist ancestor Chen Tuan played chess and lost in Huashan.

Both the government and the public are keen on gambling in their daily lives, and there are many kinds of gambling. Cuju, cockfighting, cricket fighting, chess, etc. can be seen everywhere. You can even gamble on buying something.

The buyer and seller agree on the price of the bet. If the buyer wins, he can buy things for a price that is much lower than the market price of the goods. If he loses, he still pays but cannot take away the things. This is the origin of the word Guan Pu.

Due to the prevalence of gambling, the imperial court had to strictly prohibit gambling. The "Song Xingtong" stipulated, "Those who play with property can each have a hundred sticks, and those who have stolen a lot of stolen goods can each divide according to their own needs. It is considered a robbery."

However, this did not change the trend. Gambling was still widespread. At most, it was just a matter of not gambling, and the court would also lift the ban on gambling during major festivals.

Closer to home, Zhao Mengxi’s method is very characteristic of the Song Dynasty, but in practice, it cannot achieve the effect of dividing the porridge fairly.

Sure enough, Ye Mengding shook his head and commented, "With your method, the people selected at random will most likely favor themselves when dividing the porridge. How can it be fair?"

The three examiners gave the grades, 'low', 'low', and 'medium'. Fortunately, Dong Huai was kind and saved a little face again.

"Zhao Heyunjuan, take turns to share the porridge, one day for each person, and cycle in turn."

Ye Mengding commented, "It seems fair, but it will inevitably lead to everyone being full or even surplus on the day when the porridge is divided, but the other four people will be hungry. Taking turns, everyone will be full for one day and hungry for four.

day."

This is barely fair, so the rating is three out of three.

"Zhao Mengqi scrolled and elected people of high moral character to share the porridge."

Ye Mengding commented, "A person with high virtue may be fair at first, but over time, he will become greedy, and then he will favor himself and those close to him when dividing the gruel."

Relying entirely on personal morality and consciousness is only a short-term fairness, and the rating is two out of two and one out.

"Zhao Meng Guan Juan, two people divide the porridge, and the other three supervise. After the division is completed, comparison and adjustment are made."

Ye Mengding commented, "With supervision and restrictions, we can indeed get fairness in the end, but there will be many disputes every time and it will take a long time. It is very likely that the porridge will be cold after dividing it."

It can be fair, but the operation is cumbersome and affects the efficiency. The ratings obtained are 'upper', 'upper', and 'medium'.

This result is still the best so far. Zhao Mengguan couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking that Zhao Mengqi's answer had not been released yet, he became nervous again.

"Zhao Mengqiu, take turns dividing the porridge, and the person who divides it eats last."

Ye Mengding smiled with satisfaction, "This method is the best, because the person who divides the porridge gets to eat last. If it is unfair, he will get the least, and taking turns can also make up for some errors that are difficult to eliminate."

Needless to say, the rating was naturally above three. This time, neither Ding Daquan nor Wu Yan could find any faults, and the voting results were quickly given.

Zhao Mengqi, twenty-two votes.

Zhao Mengguan, twenty-one votes.

Zhao Mengqi, twelve votes.

Zhao Heyun, nine votes.

Zhao Mengxi, three votes.

Statistics of the results of the three rounds showed that Zhao Mengguan was five, Zhao Menghao was seven, Zhao Mengqi was eight, Zhao Heyun was nine, and Zhao Mengxi was fifteen.

Zhao Mengqi moved one step forward, changed positions with Zhao Heyun, and narrowed the distance from the front, which made Zhao Guanjia relax a little.

The fourth round of questions came from Ma Guangzu again, "The Master said that if a gentleman has no fight, he will shoot. This test is called 'shooting'."

To a certain extent, it is only after humans have long-range strike weapons that they can fight against wild beasts and ensure a certain degree of safety. Shooting is naturally the most important skill for men.

But in the Song Dynasty, which had long worshiped literature, there were very few scholars who could draw a bow and shoot an arrow, and they looked down on those who could.

However, this skill was evident in the Six Arts of the Gentleman, so smart scholars began to come up with alternative ideas.

"The Book of Rites says, 'Tossing pots is a matter of fine shooting. Yanyin shoots to entertain the guests, and to teach skills by practicing appearance.' Today we take the topic of throwing pots. In order to determine the winner more quickly, the difficulty has been slightly increased.

.”

After hearing this topic, Zhao Mengqi secretly sneered. These guys with big headscarves don't do serious archery. They are doing "throwing handkerchiefs". They completely forget that he doesn't know how to archery. If he really wants to put a bow in front of him, he will be blinded.

.

Among the five candidates, Zhao Mengxi became excited at this time, while Zhao Heyun seemed to be confident, but Zhao Menghao was extremely worried, and Zhao Mengguan also looked solemn.

The venue was quickly set up. The copper pot had a narrow neck and a big belly, with half a pot of small beans inside to prevent arrows from rebounding. The mouth of the bottle was two and a half inches in diameter, and there were two slightly thinner cylinders on both sides, which were called

For 'ear'.

Generally speaking, the distance between a person and a pot is not very far. The closest distance between a person and the pot is two and a half arrows, less than two meters, and the far distance is usually only ten feet. But today it is said that the difficulty will be increased, so the distance becomes

Two feet.

Just before the start, Zhao Mengqi saluted Ma Guangzu and said, "Master Situ, Xiao Wang has never tried throwing pot before. Can I let Xiao Wang try throwing one or two?"

At this time, Zhao Guanjia also said, "Prince Zhong was physically weak in the past, so he really never touched the pot."

Ma Guangzu pondered for a while, then looked to the three examiners Xie Fangshu for instructions. After receiving permission, he said, "In that case, all five candidates can try to throw three arrows."

Because today's competition was of great importance, the rules were strict. A long table was placed two feet away from the copper pot, with arrows placed on it.

Zhao Mengqi walked slowly to the front of the case. Only then did he realize that the clothes he was wearing were really not suitable for exercise and it was difficult to take them off, so he simply tied up his two large sleeves.

After getting ready, he twisted an arrow, closed his eyes and carefully felt the weight and balance point. After taking a few breaths, he seemed to have found the feeling, and he threw the arrow calmly and calmly. His movements were very free and easy, and it seemed like
