Sima Yi was stunned when he heard Cao Miao's words.
What was this kid trying to do?
Could there be some conspiracy?
"Xu Miao, how dare you! How can you be so rude to Young Master Sima?”
At this moment, Cao Cao deliberately berated,"How can Young Master Sima play with such childish things like you?”
"If you lose, how will Young Master Sima step down?”
"There's nothing for you to do here. Hurry up and leave.”
……
Cao Cao saw that Sima Yi was hesitating, so he deliberately provoked him.
Cao Cao understood Cao Miao very well and knew that his son could not be judged by common sense.
Now that Cao Miao had proposed such a game, he was sure that he would win.
After all, Cao Miao had an immortal master. If he could even lift a roller, what else could he not do?
Sima Yi was still young. If he was a few years older, he definitely wouldn't have fallen for Cao Cao's provocation.
However, Sima Yi was only eighteen this year, and it was the time when a man was at his most hot-blooded and impulsive.
Hence, Sima Yi snorted coldly and agreed.
"Sikong Cao, there's no harm in playing around!”
"I just want to hear what kind of math questions Young Master Cao can come up with!”
"In this world, I don't believe that there's a math problem that I can't solve!”
……
"Good!"
Seeing that Sima Yi had agreed, Cao Miao immediately beamed.
If I don't slap you today, you won't know why the flowers are so red.
"Then we'll use fifteen minutes as the time limit!”
"If you can't answer, you lose!" Cao Miao said.”
……
"Good!"
Sima Yi snorted, completely fearless.
When the gentry present saw this scene, they all revealed expressions of interest.
The name of the Sima Clan in Hanoi was like thunder piercing their ears.
Sima Lang and Sima Yi of the Sima Clan were both world-renowned young talents!
Especially Sima Yi, who was known as a rare genius that only appeared once in a hundred years!
Although they had never heard of Cao Cao's son, Cao Miao's performance today was enough to call him a genius.
What would the result be if the two of them clashed here today?
"Then, please listen to the question!"
Cao Miao grinned and took out an hourglass." I know that the price of a wooden table is ten times that of a wooden chair. I also know that a table is 288 copper coins more expensive than a chair. May I ask how much a table and a chair cost?”
……
Sima Yi, who was originally full of confidence, was stunned when he heard Cao Miao's question.
What kind of question was this?
Although there was mathematics in this era, it was very basic!
Sima Yi's mind was a little nimble and he calculated faster than ordinary people. But when had he ever done this kind of Mathematical Olympiad question?
How did this kid come up with this?
Cold sweat immediately broke out on Sima Yi's forehead.
He had never expected that this kid's question would be so tricky.
Sima Yi quickly thought about it in his heart. However, the more anxious he was, the more confused his thoughts became.
At this moment, everyone present also began to think about Cao Miao's question. This question did not sound very difficult at first, but when they really started to calculate it, it was very troublesome.
In this era, the foundation of mathematics was generally very weak. There was no multiplication table or even multiplication and division. There was only simple addition and multiplication.
Under such circumstances, wanting to solve this problem was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
" Interesting, interesting…"
Everyone could not help but click their tongues in wonder. Cao Cao's youngest son was really amazing. He was actually able to think of such a question.
Time continued to pass by the hourglass. Soon, 15 minutes had passed.
However, Sima Yi was still unable to answer it.
"Young Master Sima, have you answered this question?”
Cao Miao said with a smile.
"I didn't!"
Sima Yi's face turned ashen." Do you know the answer to this question?”
……
Sima Yi felt that perhaps Cao Miao himself did not know the answer to this question, so he deliberately came to trick him.
"Of course I know!"
"A wooden table costs 320 copper coins, and a wooden chair costs 32 copper coins!" Cao Miao said leisurely.”
……
"This…"
Hearing Cao Miao's answer, the people present tried to calculate again and found that it was indeed correct.
According to this calculation, the wooden table was indeed ten times more expensive than the wooden chair. Moreover, there was a difference of 288 copper coins.
When Sima Yi heard this, his expression turned even uglier.
Where did this kid get this question from?
"I admit defeat!"
"Young Master Sima, don't move! Let me hit you!" Cao Miao said with a smile.”
"Don't worry, I won't use my full strength!”
"I only used one-tenth of my strength!"
"After all, we're just playing a game. We can't be so serious!”
……
Sima Yi gritted his teeth. Cao Miao was just a child. Even if he was hit, it wouldn't hurt. He didn't care.
However, losing to a child was the most humiliating thing!
"You do it!"
At this moment, Sima Yi could only put on a look of being able to take a loss and squeeze out a smile." Young Master Cao is indeed quick-witted!”
"I'm ashamed of my inferiority!"
……
He took the initiative to squat down so that Cao Miao could hit him. This way, he could show that he was very magnanimous.
"Then I'm coming!"
Cao Miao said with a smile as he came in front of Sima Yi and slapped him!
Pa!
Sima Yi was sent flying, smashing a few tables nearby.
