Gao Yang finished speaking.

The entire lobby was shocked.

Especially Shangguan Wan'er and Gao Feng were staring at Gao Yang with expressions of disbelief.

They had never considered or paid attention to this issue.

But now that I think about it, this is really the truth.

Precisely because production efficiency and output increased, slavery also disappeared in the long river of history.

Otherwise, from a capital perspective.

There is no money to keep these slaves, so their lives are like livestock. However, as food production has increased significantly and it is profitable, their lives are valuable.

They did not expect that from a capital perspective, all this would be so naked.

In everything, profit comes first!

Wu Zhao clenched his fists tightly, and there was a huge wave of panic in his heart.

Gao Yang's words directly point to the essence of the dynasty!

Gao Yang looked at Wu Zhao and continued, "The current farming method in Daqian and even the Seven Kingdoms is basically iron plow and oxen. In comparison, grain output has increased significantly and the population has naturally increased. This is the general trend."

Wu Zhao's eyes were majestic, and she suppressed the throbbing in her heart. She said in a deep voice, "Gao Yang, but food and population, what does this have to do with the war you said is about to start in the world?"

Gao Yang took a sip of tea and said to Wu Zhao, "When it comes to this, I just want to play a little game with His Majesty."

"What little game?"

Looking at Wu Zhao's noble and cold face, although Gao Yang wanted to say something happy, he still held back after Gao Feng and Gao Tianlong were here.

He looked at Gao Tianlong and said, "Grandpa, you are the number one chess master in Daqian. Please lend me a chessboard and a bag of rice."

Gao Tianlong touched his beard and said proudly, "Feng'er, go get it."

peak:"……"

As a father, he was indirectly driven by Gao Yang.

Soon, Gao Tianlong's chessboard was brought over.

Gao Yang took a closer look and counted, there were sixty-four squares in total, but he unexpectedly discovered that there was a small gap in the corner of the chessboard.

"Grandpa, what's going on with this gap?"

Gao Tianlong glanced at it, then waved his hand and said, "It's okay. I met a Chu State chess master a few years ago and killed him hard. When the winner was determined in the end, I smashed his head and left behind."

Gao Yang: "..."

Wu Zhao: "..."

What a great chess master!

"Why, a corner of the chessboard is missing, will it have any impact?" Gao Tianlong asked curiously.

Gao Yang shook his head, "It doesn't matter, my grandson just asked casually."

But he was determined in his heart, and he would never win when playing chess with Gao Tianlong in the future!

Wu Zhao couldn't help but urge, "Gao Yang, what kind of game are you talking about?"

Gao Yang stretched out his hand, pointed at the chessboard, and then pointed at the rice bag beside him.

"I have given your majesty so many clever ideas, and I have also helped your majesty capture Prince Rong. Is it reasonable for me to ask your majesty for some rewards?"

"What do you want?" Wu Zhao looked at Gao Yang.

Shangguan Wan'er also looked confused, not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in Gaoyang Gourd.

"I put one grain of rice in the first small grid, two grains of rice in the second small grid, and four grains of rice in the third small grid, doubling it in turn until the sixty-four grids are filled. Your Majesty will follow this rule. How about using the rice in the sixty-four grids as a reward for me?”

Gao Yang said as he put a grain of rice on the first square of the chessboard, then took a sip of tea and smiled confidently.

According to ordinary people's thinking, there are not many rice grains in the first few grids, so they will agree directly.

Although he didn't really want it, he still wanted to see Wu Zhao deflated.

Wu Zhao should have no reason to refuse this.

"I refuse."

However, Wu Zhao's clean and crisp voice made Gao Yang unable to sit still.

"Why did your Majesty refuse?"

At this moment, Gao Yang thought a lot.

Could it be that Wu Zhao is a genius in mathematics and that she knows that the sixty-third power of 2 is food that cannot be obtained from the entire large dry food depot?

This made Gao Yang feel less confident.

When Wu Zhao saw Gao Yang's expression, she felt a little relieved, "The reason is very simple. Although I don't know what your purpose is in taking the chessboard and rice grains, but you studied under the capitalists, there must be a pitfall in it."

"Come on, tell me, is there another mystery to the rice on this chessboard? Is there a terrifying number behind it?"

Wu Zhao's eyes moved slightly. There were not many rice grains in the front space, so the problem must be at the back.

But Wu Zhao doesn't know the specific amount.

The corner of Gao Yang's mouth twitched,

I never expected this to be the reason.

He explained helplessly, "Your Majesty is right. The problem lies in the back. The number of rice grains in the front is very small, but when you get to the back, especially the sixty-fourth grid, there will be an entire large dry granary." Not enough numbers!”

"Even the minister himself doesn't know how much it is."

"What?"

Wu Zhao was very surprised when he heard this.

She looked at Gao Yang in shock.

Shangguan Wan'er also looked incredulous.

But she questioned, "How is this possible? No matter how many grids there are, the sixty-fourth grid cannot exceed the entire large dry granary!"

Gao Yang's words simply exceeded her cognition.

Even Wu Zhao couldn't help but look at Gao Yang a few more times.

Gao Feng also looked surprised.

But Gao Yang took a sip of water and said calmly, "If Sir Shangguan doesn't believe it, you can do the math yourself."

Shangguan Wan'er looked at Gao Feng and said, "I would like to ask Mr. Gao to get an abacus."

Gao Feng got up and went to get it.

He had finally won the role of running errands today.

Soon, Shangguan Wan'er took an abacus and started calculating.

She believed that there was something wrong with the chessboard, but she never believed that the numbers in the spaces at the back were so scary.

Ta-ta!

Shangguan Wan'er stretched out her slender hands and began to fiddle with the abacus. The sound of the abacus striking echoed in the lobby.

The space in front of the number is not large.

Shangguan Wan'er's face was also very calm, but gradually, Shangguan Wan'er's face became more and more solemn.

The number of the first thirteen grids is not large, the thirteenth grid has only 4096 grains of rice, but the fourteenth grid has reached an astonishing 8192 grains of rice, and the fifteenth grid has reached a terrifying 16384 grains. rice.

You know, these are only the first fifteen grids, which are already so amazing. There are forty-nine grids behind.

Astronomical figures!

This sixty-fourth grid is absolutely terrifying.

Even this abacus can't calculate numbers far away!

For a moment, Shangguan Wan'er's eyes looked as if she had seen a ghost.

Wu Zhao said calmly, "Wan'er is proficient in arithmetic. I'm afraid you will learn a lot today."

But the next second.

Snap!

The abacus in Shangguan Wan'er's hand fell to the ground, and the beads were scattered everywhere. This sudden change caught everyone off guard.

Wu Zhao looked at Shangguan Wan'er and heard something.

"Your Majesty, I can't figure it out!"
