Reborn Farmhouse: Planting Fields, Flirting with People

Chapter 837 Meeting the Holy One
Fang Yuan and his party traveled by water, and arrived in Kyoto in ten days.

On the boat, his father wrote a notebook, detailing the subtleties of abacus and mental arithmetic, and immediately sent him to the palace as soon as he got home.

Li Shou and the others also lived in the Anning Hou Mansion and were placed in a guest courtyard. Father Fang also asked the housekeeper to pick a few clever servants to serve them.

Regarding the arrival of Li Shou, father and son, and the others, the attitudes of several members of the Fang family are different. The eldest brother Fang is a gentleman, and naturally treats the guests invited by his father with courtesy, and the other party is the younger brother's future in-law's family. After a few minutes, they treated each other as uncles and nephews; although Fang's mother and eldest daughter-in-law Dong Shi were polite on the surface, they looked down on this group of country people from the bottom of their hearts.

As for Mrs. Fang, she was a little displeased at first, after all, she was not very satisfied with the marriage that Fang Yuan talked about, and felt that the peasant girl was not worthy of her precious grandson.

But now that the deal is done, it is useless for her to object any longer.

Moreover, two little girls, Li Mingxiang and Li Mingxiu, often visit Madam Zhuang in the Daylilies Hall. With these two eccentric little treasures, the dull Daylilies Hall in the past has become a bit more lively.Mrs. Fang occasionally invites them to come to talk and have fun. Who wouldn't like the innocent and lively little girl, and it also changed her view of these members of the Li family.

On the fifth day after the booklet was handed in, news came from the palace that Xuan An Ninghou entered the palace to face the saint.

Fang's father changed into his court clothes, and brought the "Abacus and Mental Arithmetic Formula" compiled by Li Mingyue and the three children of the Li family into the palace.

In the study room, Fang's father talked eloquently, preaching the subtleties of abacus and mental arithmetic, and presented the book "Abacus-style Mental Arithmetic".

As long as you hear the number of questions, the calculator can blurt out the answer. What a fallacy this is.The officials present scoffed at this, thinking that what he said was too exaggerated.

Fang's father informed the Holy Majesty, and asked the inner eunuch to bring the three siblings of the Li family who were waiting in the side hall to do the calculation on the spot.

Seeing that the people who came were a few yellow-mouthed children, and there were actually two little girls among them, the officials looked even more contemptuous.

The Holy One sat upright at the head, with a faint smile on his lips, as if he was quite interested.

The officials present asked questions on the spot, no matter how complicated the questions were, within three breaths, the three siblings would definitely be able to answer.

The three siblings behaved gracefully, without stage fright at all, and let Fang's father take another look, thinking that the Li family really got married.

In the corner of the study, the sound of the abacus was crackling, and the foreheads of the five household officials who were in charge of verifying the answers were soaked with beads of sweat, but they didn't bother to wipe them off.

After about half an hour, they had just finished checking dozens of questions.

Looking at the verification results recorded on the paper, several people showed incredulous expressions in their eyes.

"Yes! It's all right!"

"It's incredible! How can you calculate so fast?"

"Prodigy! They must be prodigy!"

There were exclamations one after another, Hubu Shangshu looked at the verification result with disbelief, wishing to pick up the abacus and check it again himself.

Father Fang explained the calculation principle of abacus mental arithmetic with a smile, and finally said: "Although this algorithm sounds a bit mysterious, it is not difficult to learn. In a school in Lijia Village, Yunxi County, more than 100 children, There are only a few people who can't learn it."

Hearing this, the most excited person is the Minister of the Household Department. The Household Department is in charge of the world's financial affairs, and handles a lot of money and account books every day. If you get this method, it will be like a miracle.
