There are two long-term plans. The first is to let the people who later apply for themselves think about it. Can you be as good as Cao Chong's eyes? When a person with real talents and knowledge sees Cao Chong's three questions, he will not only not stop, but will also face difficulties. The three questions will eliminate a lot of sand and gravel for a while, so that he can also be more relaxed in selecting ministers.

The second point is that the virtual head of the three questions can also have a good publicity effect. Maybe it can be made into a Yuedan review and is sought after by scholars.

Cao Chong did not delay the deep meaning of his thoughts, and he directly expressed the theme in one sentence.

"This first question is taken from the first question of the eight equations of the "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" Volume 8 by Zhang Cang and Geng Shouchang: There are three upper hemps now... Ask the upper hemps, the middle hemps, and the lower hemps, and what is the same? It is done within three quarters of an hour!"

Chapter Nine Arithmetic?

Someone was stunned at that time!

Nine Chapters Arithmetic, aren’t you teasing me? Are you sure the topic you are going to give is not the poems and essays of Song Yu, Qu Yuan and Sima Xiangru, but the Nine Chapters Arithmetic!

Nine chapters of arithmetic, what is Nine chapters of arithmetic? That is a profound problem!

Although Chinese mathematics has been prosperous and long-lasting, even in the Qing Dynasty of the Republic of China and the Qing Dynasty, there were only a few people familiar with Jiuzhang Arithmetic. To put it bluntly, Jiuzhang Arithmetic is the general theory of relativity!

How many modern people understand the essence of relativity?

not much!

Of course, during the Three Kingdoms period, not many people knew Nine Chapters of Arithmetic!

Since Emperor Wu of Han respected Confucianism alone, Confucianism occupied the hearts of scholars all over the world. Even if the so-called Nine Chapters of Arithmetic has not become strange skills, it cannot be in the same position as Confucian classics. Even fewer people know Nine Chapters of Arithmetic.

Cao Chong looked at the performance of the scholar in front of him and couldn't help but shake his head in his heart.

Whether it is mathematics or gunpowder, Chinese people say that I am hundreds or thousands of years earlier than you in Europe and the United States, but this sentence is a bit harsh when it is put in Cao Chong's ears!

What's the use of being thousands or hundreds of years earlier?

Gunpowder is firecrackers, and mathematics becomes a lie. The creativity of Chinese people is unquestionable, but they lack the ability to explore their value. Cao Chong lived a resumption of his life, so he naturally wanted to help his Chinese compatriots dig out the inventions that belong to us and at the same time he wanted to rebel against inventions from other countries.

Everyone wailed, but not everyone wailed, just like this Wang Lin and a man in white sitting at the lower head.

Wang Lin couldn't hide the joy on his face. He thought to himself: Hehe, Cao Chong, just wait for me to slap in the face!

Brush ~

Wang Lin's writing was as if he was awesome. In less than a quarter of an hour, the Cai Hou paper in front of him had already been written a whole page!

Unlike other scholars, Wang Lin not only studied Confucian classics, but also studied the essence of Taoism, Legalism, Mohism, and various schools of thought. Since it has existed, it has its own value. Wang Lin wants to absorb these values, so let alone the original topic of Nine Chapters Arithmetic, even if it is not the original topic, what are I, Wang Lin?

Da da da da da ~

Three quarters of an hour arrived in an instant, and Zhao Yan hurriedly urged the people who were leaving to stop answering the questions and also collected the Cai Hou's paper.

While Zhao Yan was collecting the paper of Cai Hou, Cao Chongrao looked at everyone's expressions with a slight look.

Some are confident, just like the Wang Lin, while others are hammering their feet with their chests. They look so annoyed that they almost can do it in a little while. This is the manifestation of most people, but there is another person who has a expressionless face and kneels in it, like a lotus flower in the mud, which is particularly eye-catching.

"Deshui, who is that man in white?"

Zhao Yan smiled and knew that Cao Chong must have such a question, he immediately said, "This person is Lu Song, whose courtesy name is Zhongyan!"

Lu Song!

Cao Chong smiled and nodded!

The previous article said that Cao Chong valued the two people most, one of them was Wang Lin, and the second one was naturally Lu Song!

Moreover, this Lu Song is extremely extraordinary. He is from the Lu family!

Jiangdong Lu family!

Cao Chong took the Cai Hou paper from Zhao Yan's hand and put him on the table, but started talking in his mouth!

"All the generals will listen to the second question. This question is not mathematics or poetry. It is the situation!"

situation?

Wang Lin's eyes lit up, Lu Song also dissipated his indifferent expression, and there was a look of interest on his face.

"Just discuss the situation of my father's southern expedition, the time is still three quarters of an hour."

What is the theme of Prime Minister’s Southern Expedition?

The scribes present frowned. What does this question mean? It is just a theory of the situation?

Then Cao Cao is your father of Cao Chong. Can we say that the situation is not good?

So a person immediately walked out of the field.

"Young Master, can you inform us about the scope of this situation?"

Cao Chong naturally shook his head and told you the scope. Do you really think this is an exam? This is an on-site job fair for the company!

The talent Cao Chong wants is not a nerd. What he wants is a person with adaptability and insight. There are not many such people, but Cao Chong doesn’t want much, just enough!

"This..." Many scribes were confused on the spot, looking at each other without saying a word.

hehe.

Cao Chong laughed and said, "You guys are embarrassed to say it, so you can write it on paper!"

Some things are different from those that are written, so Cao Chong asked them to write them.

Sure enough, as soon as Cao Chong said this, he saw them re-interpreting, and Lu Song and Wang Lin had already started writing.

While waiting, Cao Chong picked up the Cai Hou paper in his hand and looked at it.

Cai Hou’s paper is not thick, but it is not thin either. Twenty pieces of paper are also of a certain thickness when held in his hand.

Cao Chong started from the first picture, but soon Cao Chong flipped over, followed by the second picture and the third picture. Finally, Cao Chong's face became increasingly ugly. Zhao Yan looked at Cao Chong's face and suddenly felt something was wrong in his heart.

Finally, Cao Chong's hand that turned the page stopped, and his eyes were frozen on this piece of paper, which was Wang Lin's handbook.

This guy sprinkled a whole piece of paper, and the process and draft were completed on it. Cao Chong nodded, and it was indeed a famous scholar!

Of course, Cao Chong's good mood did not last long, because he never saw the answer again in the Cai Hou paper in his hand, until the last one, which was written by Lu Song.

But this page is a bit white, because only a few lines of words are written on this piece of Cai Hou’s paper.

One stick of the upper wheat, nine dou, one bit of the fourth dou, one stick of the middle wheat, one stick of the fourth dou, one stick of the lower wheat, two dou, three bit of the fourth dou.

Isn’t this the original text of “Nine Chapters of Arithmetic”?

Cao Chong frowned and looked at Lu Song, who was writing indifferently on his face. He didn't know for a moment whether he had a great memory or copied it.

Huh ~

Cao Chong breathed a sigh of relief and had a clear understanding of the mathematical level of this era. Of course, they don’t need to answer all of these three questions. Cao Chong is not a generalist. As long as you have some talent, I want you. So in fact, as long as they answer a question correctly or let Cao Chong see their highlights, Cao Chong will ask him.
Chapter completed!
