Lord of Rot

Chapter 71 Multiplication Tables

When Li Qi returned to the castle, he was slightly surprised when he saw the letter delivered to him.

"Could it be that the Eighteenth Women's University has changed?"

In his impression, the letter written by the cousin who loves everyone very much reveals a literary taste.

Because the previous letter was short and polite, I couldn't tell much about it, but this letter is completely different, and I can see its character.

And it seems that the grandfather intends for the two of them to communicate with each other for a long time, isn't it just to be pen pals, what a joke.

After Li Qi sat at the desk with a pen in his hands, he quickly finished writing the letter, and then let the white raven, who had rested for several days, take the letter away. It could be seen that this kind of correspondence life would continue for a long time.

Although the instructor Kelan died, the selection of his subordinates was not over yet.

The teenagers who stayed behind breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately they were not sent back home.

But the following information made them worry again, because the next review is the lord's lord!

Glenn has been busy with the recent teaching and training. He knows what the lord means, so he intends to teach more and cultivate the reading and writing skills of the teenagers. The results are not bad. At first 35 people could not read, but after a few days After the teaching, 14 of them could barely keep up with the learning progress, and almost all of them were younger and smarter.

Of the remaining 21, 8 could not learn to write their own names.

The last part of learning ability is not too bad, but I am not interested in learning, and even feel painful.

People are forced to do everything except math problems.

Basic arithmetic happens to be part of the training, and 21 people are stuck here. They can't learn math problems, and they can't do it. Their brains are not enough, and they can't work hard.

Li Qi happily let the 21 people go home.

When they left, they were still complaining in their hearts, wouldn't it be enough for the knights to hold guns, why should they count.

But dare not say anything.

There were 14 left, and Li Qi taught them addition and subtraction within 100, as well as the 99 multiplication table.

Fortunately, Lurea's numbers are not complicated and can be nested into the multiplication table.

This is the wisdom of the ancestors!

Not only the continent of Lurea, but even the earth, those foreigners don't know the 99 multiplication table, they use the line drawing method, draw the line and then count the intersecting points, at first glance they thought they were playing backgammon.

Since we want to train a group of apprentices who can do chores and count, we can't lose the chain in this regard.

As the next teacher, Ge Lan naturally followed the whole process. When the lord proposed multiplication and division, Ge Lan sat up straight. When the lord drew the "99 multiplication table" with his own hands, Glenn's eyes widened completely.

You only need to memorize it by rote and develop a habit, and you will be able to say it instantly when you need to use it.

"Only with the blessing of the gods can there be such wisdom."

He looked at Li Qi with admiration.

In the past, Gulen could only count with his fingers. For example, when he was doing business selling white bread, if one sold 3 Bronze Stars, if someone wanted 20, he would give one, then receive 3 Bronze Stars, and then give another one. This is also the clumsy but prudent way of doing business among commoners.

The smarter ones are 3 Bronze Stars, and those with 3 Bronze Stars count 20 times.

After doing business for a long time, you may get used to being able to tell the amount in one bite, but if you want 18 white bread, you have to count from the beginning.

With the lord's 99 multiplication table...Glenn searched the multiplication table, and then saw 2X3=6, simply inferring from one instance to another, Glenn still understood, and he could tell it was 60 at a glance!

As long as you memorize this multiplication table, there will be no problem in arithmetic!
"Memorize it by heart, and then I will come up with questions." Li Qi said to the teenagers: "Those who pass stay, and those who fail go."

Talents can't make up their living, and if they can't count, then forget it.

Anyway, there is more than one job fair, there are many masons, carpenters and other craftsmen.

The remaining 14 teenagers shouted yes excitedly.

They don't understand the magical function of the multiplication table, but it doesn't prevent them from working hard to compete for the status of knight retinue.

Isn't carrying this better than going back to farming?Isn't it better than being a slave?

"My lord, you..." Gren's throat was dry, and he approached Li Qi and asked in a low voice, "Is this multiplication table of yours a blessing from the Four Gods?"

"A dream." Li Qi said seriously: "There is infinite knowledge drilled into my brain."

"You have the wisdom blessed by the gods," Glenn said excitedly.

Although most of the numbers, he can get the answer in an instant through his habits, convenient tables, convenient calculation methods, full of infinite wisdom, only those blessed by the gods can understand!

"Study hard." Li Qi patted Grant on the shoulder: "I still count on you to teach them addition and subtraction."

Unlike multiplication and division, addition and subtraction just don't have a systematic concept. In fact, Lurea people have been using them in their lives. On the contrary, multiplication is rarely used, and it will provide great help.

Looking at Ge Lan who is serious and eager to learn, Li Qi hummed and smiled triumphantly: "I still haven't brought out the linear equation in one yuan!"

In terms of mathematics, he can at most get a junior high school degree, and beyond nine years of compulsory education will not work.

"Well, it would have been nice if I had studied mathematics, physics and chemistry well at that time, but unlike now, I have to rely on magic."

Except for being a guest teacher and teaching the 14 selected teenagers, Li Qi basically spent the rest of his time exploring the headland crypt.

Adhering to the idea of ​​waste utilization, Kelan Fosac's body was controlled by him and entered the crypt.

Li Qi didn't control his training skills, but the number of dead bodies he could control had increased from 9 to 16, a proper crypt exploration team.

The commercial area of ​​the Cape Crypt is almost explored, and most of the Harpies flying in the sky have been killed.

The harpy is not strong in combat, the only advantage is that it can fly, so Li Qi did not transform too much, but the number of blue-skinned little monsters "Gabalin" is increasing. Turning into a porcupine would be more like a porcupine if it turned and ran away in fright, with a spear stuck in its ass.

A harpy acting as a porter grabbed a bag of treasures and flew to a closed room in the business district.

The window opened, and one hand clutched the bag in the harpy's claws.

Very heavy!

The owner of the arm was pulled down by the weight and almost fell down the stairs.

The harpy turned and flew away, and that hand also dragged the bag into the room and closed the window.

"Huh" Betty exhaled.

More than 20 bags had gathered in the room.

She turned the bag over in her hand.

Whoa!

There are golden statues, jewels inlaid with various gemstones, exquisite silver daggers, and stubborn and curved silver sticks like cucumbers, and so on.

She put the treasures away separately. After the corpse team grew, her job became sorting and sorting, and she only stayed in this small room every day.

For the time being, there is no need to worry about eating and drinking. The food and water brought back by the dead body are all from the mercenaries of the same team, which can keep her going for a long time.

Every time she sees new food, she knows that another companion has been killed.

Die well!
Betty didn't feel sorry for those bastards who betrayed their own people. They made themselves bait and killed him, so they deserved to die.

Then he sat in the corner, looked at the window, and was in a daze.

She couldn't know whether it was day or night outside the crypt, and she didn't know how long it had passed. The idea of ​​escaping was still strong, but she was looking forward to the knock on the window again, even if what followed was a Only a dead harpies, or blue gabalin.

Because she knew that the monsters in front of her were all fake, and the person who looked at her through the monster's eyes was the real one.

He protected himself like a mercenary in armor.
