Chapter 110 Chapter 110 This young master has some skills
The students were arguing so loudly that Qin Run had to come out to deal with it. Otherwise, these hot-tempered students might start to attack.
"Everyone, don't worry. We've hired two chefs to work in the kitchen today. We'll definitely have more than enough food tonight, so don't worry."
"Did you hear that? There's plenty of food, so why can't we take it away?"
"Young Shopkeeper, can we take the bowl back first and return it later?"
Qin Run: "Sure."
After Xu Yunfan's reminder, foods like pickled chicken feet become more flavorful the longer they are soaked. Qin Run made a pot of them and tasted them himself, and his appetite was immediately aroused.
Intuitively, he knew that these dishes would be popular among the students, so he asked Sun Wu to drive the ox cart to the slaughterhouse to see if there were any chicken feet or other such things there. He would bring some back and tell them to take as many as they could. There was no need to worry about having too much, as they would not have enough to sell.
When Sun Wu came back, he also brought about 100 kilograms of butter, which was what Xu Yunfan wanted to buy. Qin Run put it aside and continued to let Fang Er and others clean up.
When Xu Yunfan went to the kitchen, there was not a single piece of chicken feet left. The basin was clean and not even a chili pepper was visible.
These students are quite good at eating.
If Xu Yunfan hadn't seen with his own eyes Fang Er and the others taking the claws out from the kitchen again and again, he would have thought that "Approaching Science" would probably have to be filmed for a few more episodes.
Back in the front hall, Xu Yunfan was "lazy" and resting his chin with one hand, with his legs crossed like a domineering CEO, doing nothing at the money exchange.
Yesterday and today, these students didn’t know what medicine or food they took that was wrong, but they all became shy and timid.
They would always steal glances at Xu Yunfan from time to time, and when he looked over, they would pretend to eat very quickly and lower their heads. When he was about to turn his head, they couldn't help but steal a glance at him. Several times, Xu Yunfan caught several students stealing glances at him.
Xu Yunfan wondered, was it because his face was dirty today, or was his hair messy?
Although he usually didn't have a fancy hairstyle, after all, there was no hairspray here, so he just styled his hair a few times every day, but as a teacher, Xu Yunfan still tried to dress formally and keep his appearance neat and tidy. Naturally, styled hair a few times, how could it not be considered a hairstyle?
Xu Yunfan wanted to go up and ask them what they were looking at.
After noticing that those students were embarrassedly eating with their heads down and their earlobes red, Xu Yunfan understood.
What a sin!
Look, he is already so handsome that he attracts men, women, young and old, and now even men bow down to him in his shirts and trousers.
Xu Yunfan touched his face and thought, it’s also his parents’ fault. Why did they give birth to such a good child when they had nothing better to do?
Of course, the one who should be blamed the most is myself. Why did I have to look like this and confuse everyone?
Qin Run originally wanted to talk to Xu Yunfan, but when he saw Xu Yunfan raising his chin with a smug and somewhat complacent look, Qin Run knew that this man was becoming narcissistic again.
"What are you thinking about?" Qin Run sat on the stool next to Xu Yunfan and asked knowingly.
Xu Yunfan shook his head proudly, smiling radiantly, "I won't tell you."
Qin Run smiled softly. "Why don't you tell me?" He knew what Xu Yunfan was thinking without thinking. Since Xu Yunfan didn't say anything, he asked, "How was your class this morning?"
"It's pretty good. I think I'm teaching well, and the students are all listening attentively." Xu Yunfan was very satisfied with this and full of confidence: "Don't worry, they won't dare to give me a hard time. After all, it's rare to find a teacher as capable and decisive as me. If they get angry and leave, they will be the ones who lose."
Qin Run lowered his head and chuckled: "That's good, my husband is amazing. He is the best at everything he does. Not only is he good-looking, but he is also unmatched in every other aspect. He is far ahead of everyone else."
Qi Xiu Ze and the other three standing by couldn't bear to watch. Xu Yunfan was a boastful and confident guy, but it was undeniable that he did have the capital to be arrogant.
Today, they heard that he brought something called a blackboard to Class C6. Not to mention those teachers who were dissatisfied with Xu Yunfan and thought that Xu Yunfan was valued by the dean only because of his looks, even the students, the dean who heard about it and came over to find out what was going on, and the four of them saw with their own eyes how magical the thing Xu Yunfan called a blackboard was.
The small white strip the length of an index finger, which Xu Yunfan called chalk, could actually write such clear and beautiful words on the blackboard.
In order to prevent his cuffs from getting dirty, Xu Yunfan rolled up his sleeves. The watch on his wrist looked very expensive, which made his wrist seem extremely valuable. His slender fingers grasped the chalk and wrote furiously on the blackboard.
Xu Yunfan with a slightly open collar, Xu Yunfan who was confident while imparting knowledge, Xu Yunfan holding the chalk in one hand and putting the other hand in his pocket... In short, the teachers who came to watch him teach didn't know whether they should be impressed by Xu Yunfan's real talent or should admire him. He is such a good-looking guy, and everything he does is good-looking. Even if he picks his nose with his middle finger, he would probably look much better than them.
During the two classes yesterday, Xu Yunfan discussed with his classmates and learned that there was no such thing as "Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art" in the Dayan Dynasty. Their basic arithmetic rules and methods were only addition and subtraction.
Xu Yunfan remembered that the "Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art" included rules and methods for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, which were more convenient and faster than the arithmetic of the Dayan Dynasty.
Many students find arithmetic difficult and fail the exams. In various colleges, arithmetic is listed as the most difficult subject because some of the numbers are so large that adding and subtracting them can make people dizzy.
In addition, Arabic numerals did not appear in the Dayan Dynasty, so their method of calculation was "counting sticks".
The so-called "counting chips" are small sticks or pieces made of bamboo, wood or metal, used to represent numbers and perform calculations.
As the saying goes, "Planning in the tent can determine the victory thousands of miles away", the "chips" here refer to counting chips.
But Xu Yunfan felt that this algorithm was not as easy to calculate as Arabic numerals.
However, since the founding of the Dayan Dynasty, arithmetic has been the core subject of the imperial examination. It can be seen that counting rods have been widely used over the years. If Xu Yunfan rashly changes the teaching, the students will surely be full of doubts and find it difficult to understand and accept.
In order to enable students to have a deeper understanding of their true abilities, Xu Yunfan decided to solve the problems that students had encountered in the past one by one.
In order to make them accept new things, we must let them know the differences between the new things and what they are currently learning.
"Yesterday, I briefed you all on some of the current developments in arithmetic in the Great Yan Dynasty. I believe you all know that I, Xu Yunfan, are your Master Xu. As you can tell from my attire, I'm not a native of the Great Yan Dynasty, but rather a traveler from overseas. Later, I met the love of my life here... So, in the end, I decided to stay and enjoy a life of loving love with my husband, enjoying the tranquility of picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and admiring the southern mountains. However, I feel that my talents shouldn't be buried. Your dean has a keen eye for talent. The moment he laid eyes on me, he knew I was a man of both virtue and talent. He felt that I was exceptionally intelligent and knowledgeable, a rare talent... That's why he hired me to be your Master of Arithmetic."
The first omission in Xu Yunfan's nonsense was all his praise for his fiancé.
The second omission, you don't have to think about it to know that it's all self-praise, and he praises himself so much that if he exaggerates a little, he will say that he is the best man in the world, the only one of his kind.
Xu Yunfan also said that his husband loved him. He was a good man and loved his husband, so this talented and handsome man finally chose to stay and was determined to shine.
The dean and Qi Xiu Ze and the other three couldn't help but feel ashamed, because they were close to Xu Yunfan and even called each other brothers. Shen Ruxi and the other three felt a little embarrassed for some reason, and they were very ashamed. Their faces turned red, and they suddenly felt so embarrassed that they didn't dare to see anyone.
The other teachers glanced at the dean, the meaning of which was self-evident.
Look, this is the teacher you invited?
It's ok that he's young and unreliable and can only talk nonsense, but he's also so shameless. What can such a teacher teach?
What can he teach his children?
Do you want to teach them to be shameless and boast all day long that they are the best in the world?
The dean smiled awkwardly, forcing a smile as he made an excuse: "This... this is probably Xu Yunfan's opening remarks. I believe he will get to the point next. Just wait and see!"
I thought Xu Yunfan had finished and was about to get down to business, showcasing his abilities, but he started again: "Teaching overseas is different from here. I think if I don't show you how strong I am, you won't know how powerful I am. So, I'll show you my abilities and see if I'm qualified to be your teacher. Come, take turns testing me. If I get a problem wrong, I'll be unworthy of this position and I'll leave immediately."
Ye Chen and Lin Zifei happened to be sitting in the front row. After Xu Yunfan set up the blackboard and started talking nonsense for a while, he walked over to Ye Chen and said, "Come on, test me first."
When Xu Yunfan was speaking passionately, the students in the audience were all twitching.
It seems that their teacher is a little too boastful. He has been talking for a long time without getting to the point. This is really amazing. They all found it very funny when they heard it.
But after the laughter, facing such a handsome guy, even though they were also men, they had no choice but to obey because of Xu Yunfan's face and his identity as the canteen owner who controlled their dining hours.
Ye Chen quickly took out the arithmetic problems he had done before and began to test Xu Yunfan.
I thought that after hearing the question, Xu Yunfan would need some time to calculate it, but unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Xu Yunfan gave the answer.
The students widened their eyes, huh?
They hadn't even memorized the numbers after hearing the question, but Xu Yunfan figured it out?
This... is a lie!
How is that possible?
Even if Xu Yunfan has some skills in arithmetic, is he really that good?
Not to mention the students, even the teacher who was eavesdropping outside found it unbelievable.
But if you say Xu Yunfan is wrong, that is absolutely impossible. Just look at Ye Chen's surprised reaction and you will know.
Xu Yunfan didn't care about what these people were thinking. He stood in front of Lin Zifei and said, "It's your turn. Please tell me the question."
When Xu Yunfan said that he wanted everyone to test him, a group of students found the questions that they thought were difficult and hard to solve. After Xu Yunfan asked Ye Chen, Lin Zifei had already prepared the questions.
Lin Zifei read the question once, and like Ye Chen, Xu Yunfan's answer followed immediately after he finished speaking.
There were 36 questions for 36 students in a class. No matter which one it was, Xu Yunfan didn't move his hands once and blurted out the answer without even moving his eyes.
If they were the people Xu Yunfan had found, the teachers outside the hall would have thought they were all shills. But, they were students from Class C6 of their college. How could so many people be shills?
If they were shills, would Xu Yunfan have the ability to bribe them all one by one?
What benefits did he give them or promise them?
If these students were shills, then why were their expressions even more surprised than theirs?
If it was an act, it would be too realistic.
So you don’t have to think about it to know that Xu Yunfan is indeed quite capable.
No wonder Xu Yunfan was invited by their dean again and again even though he did not have the basic qualifications of a scholar required of a teacher. It seems that although he may not have other qualities, he has real abilities.
At this moment, the way these teachers looked at the dean changed.
As expected, their dean is amazing. He has a pair of sharp eyes and is good at judging people. He is also good at discovering talents.
Although some teachers were shocked by Xu Yunfan's arithmetic, they still did not think highly of him. They thought he was too young, not mature enough, not steady enough, and could not teach at all. Even if he had knowledge and real skills, he would not be able to teach well.
He is so young, how can he control the students?
Now the students in Class C6 seemed very obedient and did not give him any difficult questions, but in the eyes of those teachers, they had already intended to give him difficult questions when they set the questions.
After all, Xu Yunfan had said that if he answered incorrectly, he would be kicked out immediately and go back to where he came from.
What a pity, Xu Yunfan is quite knowledgeable.
Xu Yunfan walked to the blackboard, took out a piece of chalk, and wrote the question that Ye Chen had just asked him on the blackboard.
Wow, this guy is not only good at arithmetic, but also has such a good memory?
The time Xu Yunfan took to answer the questions was too short to be considered significant. It would have taken the 36 students about a quarter of an hour to read through the questions. Moreover, after hearing so many questions, how could Xu Yunfan still remember the title of the first question?
This is really amazing.
Looking at the blackboard and chalk brought by Xu Yunfan, the eyes of all the teachers and students lit up.
The dean, in particular, was so excited that he wanted to go in immediately, pull Xu Yunfan out and ask him how those things were made.
When teachers in the college teach, they can get the pens, ink, paper and inkstones they use for free from the teacher in charge of these matters in the college. If all the teachers in their college use blackboards and have chalk available, how much paper and ink can be saved in a year?
With this calculation, how much money can the college save?
Xu Yunfan inside had no idea that more money was going to be put into his pocket. After finishing the question, he habitually pressed the chalk a little harder and turned his head to glance at the thirty-six students. "This is the question Ye Chen just asked. Ye Chen, is the question I wrote on the blackboard different from the question you just asked me?"
Ye Chen shook his head in a daze, "No."
"How difficult is this question for you?" Xu Yunfan asked.
The students shook their heads, and Lin Zifei said honestly, "It's not easy."
This is a bit implicit.
Xu Yunfan reviewed the question, "Butcher A sold meat today. He sold pork belly for 368 wen, pork fat for 787 wen, and spare ribs for 132 wen. His wife also sold five ducks, each weighing 7 wen. One duck weighed 5 jin, two weighed 6 jin, and the remaining two weighed 7 jin each. Butcher A then bought three chickens, each weighing 8 wen. Of the three chickens, one weighed 4 jin, one weighed 5 jin, and the remaining one weighed 3 jin. He returned home and gave his mother 3 liang and 26 wen. So, how much money did the butcher and his wife have in their pockets today?"
Ye Chen's question was relatively short. The questions of other students were complicated and lengthy. They would feel dizzy after reading them. What's more, they were asked to calculate, add, subtract, convert, buy and sell, which was indeed a bit difficult for them.
Xu Yunfan listed his problem-solving process, leaving the students confused.
