Cao Xiu immediately laughed.
Sure enough, involution is everywhere!
"This...isn't this appropriate?"
"how?"
"There is no money or food..."
"Young people, don't always think about money. Take a long-term view. Besides, if you don't do it, there will be people who will do it. The most indispensable thing in Qin is people." Cao Xiu picked up the wine bottle and wrote lightly: "Others only need to take care of the food, you I still need money, who do you think I should recruit?”
He knew that the young man was a distant relative of the county magistrate, but he really didn't want to recruit this person. He has no talent, but he still dares to ask for three hundred yuan a month, which is almost as much as the monthly salary of a Doushi official.
Cao Xiu also gave Hu Wujing face, so he saved the interview for the last time. Moreover, it is because others give up on their own if the conditions cannot be negotiated, it is not that they refuse to accept it.
"you you……"
The young man's face turned red and his whole body was shaking with anger.
It is tolerable, but what is unbearable!
Fight with me, do you have the strength?
"Okay! I don't want monthly money, I just want to take care of the food!"
"Forehead?"
Cao Xiu was dumbfounded. Are you going to open the book now? !
He originally wanted the young man to give up before the difficulties, but he never thought that he would be more energetic. In order to be a gentleman, I don't even need to pay for it.
"Ahem..." Cao Xiu looked slightly embarrassed and looked at the two of them again, "In that case, it depends on your true talents and learning. I will choose whoever is more talented. Is this fair?"
"As the saying goes, good talents should be put to good use, and those who are capable will live in them. Those who are virtuous will live in them, and those without virtue will be lost. If Mr. Cao is like this, all his sons will be convinced."
"Me too!"
The young man followed and echoed.
Taking advantage of the situation, he glanced at Fusu with disdain.
Give up, you can't compare to me in terms of talent!
"Okay, please listen to the question! Today there are beasts with six heads and four legs; birds, four heads and two legs. There are seventy-six heads on the top and forty-six legs on the bottom. Question: How many birds and beasts are there?"
"Arithmetic?"
The young man was stunned for a moment. There were calculation chips, bamboo slips and a sand table in front of them, which were enough for them to check the calculations. If he had to take the law test, he was really good, but the test was on arithmetic, and he had never heard of this question.
What kind of bird, what kind of beast?
The person who asked this question must be an animal!
Cao Xiu smiled and watched silently. The question he asked was actually the famous chicken and rabbit in the same cage in later generations. He is looking for not only a husband, but also a helper, so he has to know a little bit about all aspects and not be too technical. He came to the arithmetic school because he wanted to see their true abilities.
After all, people have different potentials. In his previous life, he failed to solve math problems even when he was extremely angry. He originally hated mathematics, but after coming to Qin, he felt that this thing was a treasure. He couldn't be left bald alone, so everyone came together!
"I understand."
Fusu put down his pen calmly.
He already knew the answer without even checking it.
"Doubling it is enough to reduce the head, and the remaining half is a beast; ride four beasts, reduce the foot, and the remaining half is a bird. I get seven birds and eight beasts. I wonder if my calculation is correct?"
"good!"
Cao Xiu couldn't help but stand up and praise him.
It seems that this Suzi does have some abilities!
On the other hand, the young man next to him had his brush almost broken, but his face was still blank. Looking at Fusu, he gritted his teeth and cursed angrily, "Beast...Beast!!!"
Is this something that humans can do?
He hasn't done the calculation in writing yet, but he has done it mentally?
Fusu was completely unfazed by this. He was not the eldest son for nothing. Hundreds of schools of thought are involved. Including arithmetic, he is also quite good at it. It’s not that I like arithmetic, it’s just that I’ve learned it through hearing and seeing. Like the Qin State's annual accounting assessment, as the eldest son, he also had to account for money, food, cattle, horses and other materials from various places.
Just like the former imperial censor Zhang Cang, he was a disciple of Xunzi and was proficient in Jixia's nine schools of thought. In addition to Confucianism and Legalism, he was also extremely good at arithmetic, and later even compiled "Nine Chapters on Arithmetic".
"The results are out." Cao Xiu looked at the young man with a smile, "It's not that you are not good enough, but that my requirements are relatively high. Since others have figured it out before you, it is natural to choose him for the job. I hope you can understand."
"If it's not appropriate, then it's inappropriate. Nai Gong doesn't care about it!"
The young man stood up angrily, fluttered his sleeves and left.
"So, that's you."
"Thank you, Mr. Cao."
Fusu breathed a sigh of relief.
He now has a slightly changed view of Cao Xiu. He originally thought that this guy was a nepotistic and corrupt official, but now it seems that he is not blind.
"You're welcome." Cao Xiu waved his hand calmly, stood up and said, "It's easier to work here, and the work content is simple. You can take a look first."
Cao Xiu said and handed over the bamboo slips.
Fusu opened it casually, and then frowned.
"Cao Jun, are you sure this is the one?"
"Is there a problem?"
"Cao's pyramid schemes? Do you want to make millions a month? Do you want to get rich overnight? Join us, and you can deceive others just as we deceive you. There is no performance pressure and no salary deductions, because you have no Salary? As long as you are not energetic, then you will be beaten into a nervous state!"
"Damn, why are you reading it out?"
Cao Xiu snatched the bamboo slips back with all his strength, hoping that this would make him rich in the future. He plans to create a successful family in the future, inspire himself to become a successful chicken soup master, and then engage in pyramid schemes to steal some of his money. The routine is very simple. You can try all the methods in later generations. After you make enough money, you will immediately make money and run away.
Fusu's face was full of question marks. Although he didn't quite understand it, he also felt that this was definitely not a good thing.
"You pass the verification to me first, and I have to hand it over to the county magistrate, and then send someone to verify the identity. You can stay here with me during this period, and you can go to the school to teach the children starting tomorrow. You can teach They read and write, and there is Qin Law. As for the words of hundreds of schools of thought, it is up to you to use them freely. "
"Aren't you going to teach them martial arts?"
"Oh, you don't need this."
Cao Xiu waved his hand.
The fisherman Han Xin is naturally responsible for this matter. Although he is unreliable in his work, his martial arts skills are indeed good, and he is also very good at training young children.
"Cao'er, go and clean up a room for him." Cao Xiu waved his hand and continued to instruct: "Then let him get familiar with the house. She is the steward of my house. If you have any questions, you can first Find her."
"clear."
Fusu nodded to show his understanding.
"That's it, I'll go outside and take a look first."
Cao Xiu also has some things to deal with now, because he has received news that the assassins from Surabaya County have been found and the blockade will be lifted soon. There have been a lot fewer people buying rice these days, and they can stock up on corn again.
…
"Sir, this will be your bedroom from now on. I'll go work first. If you have time, just send someone to find me."
"good."
As soon as Cao'er's front feet left, Wang Jian's rear feet arrived.
After Fusu saw the person coming, his eyes suddenly turned red. He remembered that someone informed him yesterday that the child in Cao Xiu's house was the current First Emperor.
"Fusu, meet my father!"
"???"
"..."
Qin Shihuang followed in, his face full of questions.
Did this guy admit the wrong person? !
