Chapter 658: Same logic, different soup but the medicine remains the same.

Chapter 658: Same logic, different soup but the medicine remains the same.

Shen Xia was completely confused. What did they mean? Why were they looking at her like that?

What Shen Xia didn't know was that the best math student at the Bo Lan Academy was Master Xiang, and no other master could match him.

Then I heard that Mr. Xiang actually asked the young princess for advice on arithmetic. Isn't this a very strange thing?

Chen You also stared at Shen Xia in a daze: "The princess is really versatile! Not only is she good at medicine, but she's also good at arithmetic."

Shen Xia said modestly: "I can't say I'm great, I just know a thing or two."

All the teachers present looked at Shen Xia intently.

Men are born with a sense of superiority because they are men, of course this is between men and women of the same level.

This was even more obvious in ancient times, so some of these male teachers had to treat Princess Shen Xia with courtesy because of her status as a princess, and some because of Shen Xia's amazing medical skills.

But now I heard that she is good at arithmetic.

We have to re-examine this princess.

Shen Xia ignored everyone's puzzled looks.

Looking at Master Xiang, he said, "Master Xiang, where do you think we can discuss this?"

Mr. Xiang looked at the big table next to him and asked, "What do you think of this place, Princess?"

Shen Xia nodded: "Okay."

Because arithmetic is different from Chinese, arithmetic requires a place to draft, perform calculations and reasoning.

So there must be a table.

Shen Xia walked up and sat down at the table.

Teacher Xiang took out the questions that Su Lun had given yesterday.

Shen Xia's approach to solving the problem is completely different from theirs.

Shen Xia first listened to Master Xiang's method.

Shen Xia felt dizzy after hearing this.

Then tell your ideas for solving the problem one by one.

What Shen Xia didn't know was that when she started speaking.

The teachers behind him looked over one by one out of curiosity.

I just want to know how good Shen Xia's arithmetic is, to the extent that even Master Xiang has to ask for advice.

Shen Xia wrote out the arithmetic reasoning on a piece of scratch paper.

Of course it is written in Chinese characters, no numbers are used.

What surprised Master Xiang first was not Shen Xia's calculations, but her calligraphy of small characters with flowers on the hairpin. This kind of calligraphy is probably not something that can be mastered overnight.

With her excellent handwriting and simple arithmetic reasoning and calculations, Shen Xia won the recognition of all the teachers present.

Those who were not as good at arithmetic as the Master were all surprised at Shen Xia's method of calculation.

"Okay, okay... This method is simple and easy to understand. I'm afraid all the students can learn it."

Shen Xia listened to the voice coming from behind.

Turn around and look.

It turned out to be Dean Bai.

Also, when did so many teachers surround me?

No one knew when Dean Bai came over.

Shen Xia looked at Dean Bai and stood up and said with a smile: "When did Dean Bai come here?"

Because there were outsiders present, Shen Xia did not call him Uncle Bai.

It’s Dean Bai.

Dean Bai smiled and said, "Anping's knowledge is really amazing! There are many people who can't compare to him. In this college competition, our Bolan Academy has a chance to win first place!"

The masters listened.

"That's right. We only had two first places before."

"Yes! If I can get first place in arithmetic this time, then I will have three first places."

"Yes! Yes! The dean really has a keen eye for talent. He could tell at a glance that the princess has extraordinary knowledge."

Everyone was talking at once, praising Shen Xia and Dean Bai one by one.

Chen You stood by silently without saying a word.

After all, even if others don’t know, doesn’t he know?

There were all kinds of comments about the dean recruiting Princess Anping as a temporary tutor in the academy.

Now seeing that the princess is as talented as anyone, he has a different look on his face.

Of course, Shen Xia didn’t know what was going on behind the scenes.

She doesn't care about these things. As long as you don't say it in front of her, it doesn't matter. If she finds out, she will have a good talk with you.

Dean Bai smiled and said, "It will take some time to practice calligraphy like this!"

Shen Xia smiled and said, "My fourth brother taught me at home and I have been practicing for many years."

Shen Xia thought, there is nothing we can do, fourth brother is the only one in the family who writes the best.

So we can only say that he taught me.

Dean Bai looked at An Ping and said, "An Ping, do you want to try another question?"

Shen Xia nodded: "Okay."

Dean Bai said, "One hundred people eat one hundred sesame cakes. One adult eats three, and three children eat one. How many children and everyone else are there?"

After Dean Bai finished speaking, everyone started to solve the problem.

Shen Xia raised the corners of his mouth slightly after hearing this.

Isn't this a chicken and rabbit in the same cage question?

It’s the same logic, just a different name.

When other teachers started taking out their brushes and calculating.

Dean Bai looked at Shen Xia motionlessly and asked, "What's this, Anping?"

Shen Xia smiled and said, "Twenty-five adults and seventy-five children."

The slow teacher hadn't even started writing when Shen Xia's results came out.

Some people were still calculating the results when they looked up at Shen Xia.

This is really surprising.

After Dean Bai heard this, his eyes lit up when he looked at Shen Xia.

It was like looking at Shen Xia with the eyes of a genius.

Dean Bai couldn't help but exclaimed: "Your arithmetic skills are really outstanding!"

Hearing this, Shen Xia thought to himself that this was just a third-grade math problem in modern elementary schools, and almost all elementary school students today could handle it easily.

For ancient people, arithmetic was not taken so seriously.

After all, in this era, arithmetic was mainly used among businessmen. Therefore, people generally believed that a true scholar only needed to be proficient in the Four Books and Five Classics and be good at poetry and songs. These aspects were the standard configuration of a scholar.

Arithmetic, on the other hand, is considered by some to be a vulgar subject.

But in Shen Xia's view, it is just the opposite. She always believes that arithmetic is the area of ​​knowledge that should be learned more.

Whether it is the trivial affairs in daily life or the various problems you will face after entering the workplace in the future, arithmetic has extremely wide application scenarios and can be said to be an indispensable skill.

At this time, another teacher asked curiously: "How did you calculate so quickly, Princess?"

Shen Xia blurted out without thinking: "The multiplication table."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked and exclaimed in unison: "Ah?"

Then there was a burst of questioning voices: "What on earth is this?"

Seeing this, Shen Xia had to be patient and explain to everyone again in detail the specific content and usage of the multiplication table.

There was light in everyone's eyes.

Dean Bai looked at Shen Xia and said, "My lord, now that you have finished your medical first aid class, can you teach arithmetic instead?"

Shen Xia looked at Master Xiang beside her with a surprised look on her face: "This is not good!"

This is clearly Teacher Xiang's class. If she is asked to teach it, isn't that stealing her job?
