A Rascal's Title
"The champion will come up with a question, and the smartest person in Cheshi will come up with a question. Then, you will exchange questions, and whoever can solve it first will win.”
The Cheshi Nation's envoy said.
"Alright."
Gu Hao nodded.
Then, they came to the lobby of Honglu Guest House.
"A woman?"
When the Great Tang soldiers saw the smartest person in the Cheshi Kingdom, their jaws nearly dropped.
Gu Hao raised his eyebrows slightly.
The smartest person in Cheshi was dressed like the Arabs of the later generations. He was wrapped up tightly, and only his bright eyes were exposed.
"Her name is Gail. Bajiaduo is the smartest person in my Cheshi Kingdom.”
The Cheshi Nation's envoy smiled as he introduced, then glanced at Gail. " However, she's mute and can't speak.”
"Mute?"
Everyone was stunned again.
"Then can she understand us?”
Gu Hao asked.
"Hehe, she only understands the language of the Cheshi Kingdom, not the language of the Great Tang.”The Cheshi Nation's envoy chuckled.
As he spoke, he rushed towards Gail. Bagatuo said a few words.
Gail Bagado nodded slightly.
Then, Gu Hao and Gail... Bagado sat alone in front of a table, holding a brush and writing on a piece of paper.
"I'll give you a simpler one and let you increase it from 1 to 100.”
Gu Hao thought to himself.
He wrote on the paper:
One plus two, then three, four, five, and so on, all the way to a hundred, and the sum.
This was an extremely simple accumulation problem. Basically, as long as one knew how to add, one could solve it.
However, if one didn't grasp a certain trick, it wouldn't be easy to figure out the answer quickly.
A moment later, Gail. Bagado stopped writing and looked at Gu Hao.
"Before we exchange questions, we have to discuss the bargaining chips.”Gu Hao smiled faintly." If I lose, I'll tell you the method to make the crystal cup.
If I win, what will your Cheshi Country say?”
"Our Cheshi Kingdom cannot compare to the Great Tang, nor do we have any treasures.”The Cheshi Nation's envoy said," If the champion wins, I'll tell you the recipe for the white Qu wine.”
All the Tang officials, including Gu Hao, glanced at the Cheshi Kingdom's mastermind.
The Cheshi Kingdom's emissary laughed dryly. After pondering for a moment, he pointed at Gail. Bagatou seemed to have hardened her heart and gritted her teeth,""If she loses, she doesn't deserve to be the smartest person in my Cheshi Kingdom. She and the Baiqu wine recipe will belong to the champion.”
The Great Tang people were all stunned.
"That won't do."
Gu Hao shook his head and rejected him directly." Forget it. I'll just take the formula."”
The Cheshi Nation's envoy's expression froze, and his smile became slightly forced.""Are you looking down on the smartest person in Cheshi Country?”
"Since she is the smartest person in your Cheshi Kingdom, you should cherish her and not engage in such a boring gamble. You should not use her as a bargaining chip.”
Gu Hao said lightly.
He was already quite unhappy.
This Cheshi envoy did not treat the masked mute woman as a person at all, as if she was just a commodity that could be exchanged at will.
The Cheshi Nation's envoy's face turned green and white. In the end, he glared fiercely at Gail. Bagado.
Then, he said in Che Shi Mandarin,"
"Trash, they don't even want you. If you lose, I'll sell you directly to the Kiara Tower!”
Gail Bagado lowered her head.
Gu Hao was puzzled. He looked at an official from the Ministry of Rites who was proficient in Cheshi Nation's language and asked,""What did he just say?"
"Trash, they don't even want you. If you lose, I'll sell you directly to Jialuo Tower!”the official translated.
"What kind of place is Galos Tower?" Gu Hao frowned.
"It should be…that kind of place."
The interpreter said.
Gu Hao's expression turned cold.
Qin Qiong glanced at Gu Hao and said indifferently,""It might be an act. You win first.”
Gu Hao calmed down.
"Then let's begin."
Gu Hao said.
Then, Gu Hao and Gail... Bagatou saw the question that the other party had set at the same time.
"One plus two, then three, four, five, and so on, all the way to a hundred.”
After reading Gu Hao's question, Gail. A few black lines appeared on Bagado's face under the black veil.
This question…wasn't it too shameless?
It was not difficult at all, but it would take a lot of time to calculate the result.
On the other side, Gu Hao looked at Gail. Bagado raised her eyebrows at the question.
"When we passed by the river, there was a woman playing with a bowl by the river. Why are there so many bowls?
The woman said,"I have a guest at home."
Officials said: How many guests?
The woman said: Two people eat together, three people share soup, four people share meat, a total of sixty-five bowls, do not know how many guests?
………”
After the translation…
Two guests with one bowl;
Three guests in one soup bowl;
Four guests in one bowl;
A total of 65 bowls were used.
Q: How many guests are there in total?
Gu Hao chuckled and immediately started writing.
There were sixty guests in total.
Such a question was too easy for him.
A simple equation could give the answer.
Two guests would use one rice bowl, which meant that there would be a total of one-half of the number of guests.
Three guests would use one soup bowl, which meant that there was a total of one-third of the number of soup bowls.
Four guests would use one bowl, which meant that there was a total of one-fourth of the number of bowls.
Together, it was half plus a third, plus a quarter…
In other words, 13/12 of the number of guests was equivalent to 65.
The guests were equal to sixty!
"Done?" The Cheshi Nation's envoy was shocked when he saw Gu Hao put down the brush.
"The questions are not bad."
Gu Hao commented.
Gail, who had just gone from one to twenty-three. Bagado was also stunned.
That was it?
Back then, she used half an incense stick's time to solve that question.
"Lord Gu, why don't you check it again?”
Tang Jian said.
In his eyes, Gu Hao only looked at the question once and then wrote the answer directly, as if he hadn't thought about it at all.
Gu Hao rolled his eyes.
How could he check such a simple question?
Was there a need to check?
Gu Hao silently put himself in his shoes again...
It was indeed 60.
"The answer is sixty, right?"
Gu Hao looked at Gail. Bagado answered directly.
Gail Bakaduo looked at the Cheshi Kingdom's envoy.
"He said 60, right?" The Che Shi King asked in the language of the Che Shi Nation.
Gail Bagado nodded.
"Then can you answer his questions?”The Cheshi Kingdom's envoy pointed at Gail. Bagado asked with a frown.
Gail Bagado shook her head.
The Cheshi Nation's emissary's face turned pale. He gritted his teeth and slapped Gail. Bagatore's cheeks.
Pa ~!
Gail Bagado was slapped to the ground.
"Trash, trash!"
"What kind of question did you set? It's so simple that he can see the answer at a glance?”
"Are you playing me on purpose?"
"I think you're a b * tch. Do you want to go to Jialuo Tower?”
"You still dare to shake your head?”
The Cheshi Nation's envoy was cursing while the official from the Ministry of Rites behind Gu Hao translated word for word.
"Enough!"
Gu Hao was furious.
He suddenly stood up and took two quick steps forward. He grabbed the shoulder of the Cheshi Nation's envoy and lifted him up.
"Bastard, this is the Great Tang! How can you be so impudent!”
Everyone looked at Gu Hao in a daze.
"What great strength." Qin Qiong's pupils constricted.
There were probably very few people in the army who could easily lift someone up from his shoulder with one hand.
"The top scholar is a civil official, right?"
The officials from the Ministry of Rites were stunned.
This was the first time he had seen such a fierce civil servant.
"You…you…what are you doing?"
The Cheshi Kingdom's envoy was stunned.
Someone grabbed his shoulder and lifted him up?
Gail fell to the ground. Bagado was also slightly stunned.
"What great strength."
She suddenly became worried for the mastermind of the Cheshi Kingdom.
He wouldn't be beaten to death, right?
