"this?"

Lawyer Pei was also confused at this time, "Aye, Prince, I haven't started to calculate yet!"

"Then why don't you count quickly, why are you standing there?"

Pei Ji glared at him and urged him directly.

“Yes, yes!”

Lawyer Pei panicked and never dared to delay any more. He took out a bunch of small sticks made of copper and iron from the small cloth bag made of silk. The small sticks were exactly the same size and thickness.

Then, it began to be placed on the desktop.

Seeing this, Li Xuan couldn't help but feel a little headache.

Plot!

These little sticks were the calculation tools and calculation materials of ancient people.

Usually, people can carry hundreds of calculation pieces in the calculation bags they carry around their waists.

In the Tang Dynasty, there were even regulations that all officials must carry a calculation bag with them.

These calculation sheets are like mobile phones in later generations. Anyone who knows how to do arithmetic will carry them with him. If you meet some people who don’t pay back the debt on the street, you can take out the calculation bag to settle the score with disagreement.

However, this way of calculating the chips gave Li Xuan a headache. After studying for a while, he had to give up.

It's mainly because it's too troublesome!

After a while, Lawyer Pei put away the little copper rods with a proud look on his face, clasped his fists at Pei Ji and Li Shimin and reported: "Aye, Prince, according to the price of the young master, we need to give the young master 149 cents!"

It's exactly the same!

"hiss……"

Upon hearing this, Pei Ji and Li Shimin couldn't help but look at Li Xuan incredibly.

"I dare to ask the young master, how did he calculate it?"

"Addition and subtraction of up to 100 digits, just mutter it in my mind, just like what I just said, it will be calculated!"

Li Xuan said with a plain face.

"The method used by the young master is the technique of mental arithmetic?"

Pei Ji asked quickly, staring at Li Xuan with anticipation on his face.

"It should be counted!"

Li Xuan couldn't guarantee that in this era, is there anyone who is more proficient in the "Nine-Nine Songs" than himself!

"I wonder if my master can figure out how much I need to pay?"

On the side, Li Shimin also looked interested.

After saying that, Li Xuan replied directly: "The prince and Li Wei spent a total of 44 cents to have dinner, plus the medicine used by Li Wei, it was 1,944 cents!"

"Really or not?"

This time, Lawyer Pei realized that as soon as His Majesty finished speaking, the young master calculated the answer.

Could it be that it was fooled?

Thinking of this, Lawyer Pei muttered, picked up small plots in his hand, and began to quickly place them.

"Aye, Prince, the young master is not wrong at all!"

After calculating the results, Lawyer Pei's eyes looked at Li Xuan even more intense.

After hearing this, Pei Ji and Li Shimin looked at each other and looked at Li Xuan.

"My little master, if eight servants and five strong people can eat three steamed buns; three thin people can eat two steamed buns, how much does it cost?"

"One hundred and five cents!"

"If each person needs to eat a bowl of dishes and drink a bowl of rice soup, how much does it cost?"

"Two hundred and one cent!"

"Little Master, if you add the prince's guard..."

Seeing Li Xuanneng answering immediately, a trace of surprise flashed across Pei Ji's face and he continued to ask questions.

However, Li Xuan was a little impatient.

"Mr. Pei, the prince, there are only one basket of steamed buns in your house now, ten! As for rice soup and stir-frying, they have been eaten clean. The two of them only need to pay for forty cents to share these with the guards outside!"

Forehead!

Pei Ji was stunned and then smirked.

However, after all, an old minister who has gone through three dynasties has already developed a face that is thicker than a city wall.

"Dalang, pay another forty cents and give these steamed buns to Pei Xiang and others to cushion their stomachs!"

"ah?"

Lawyer Pei, who was fiddling with the calculation of the arithmetic results that Pei Ji mentioned one by one, was stunned. He hadn't calculated it yet, so why did he have to pay again!

"You are just standing there and you can't hurry up and pay and divide the steamed buns. Do you want to starve Pei Xiang to death?"

Seeing Lawyer Pei’s appearance, Pei Ji couldn’t help but feel angry.

"I'll go now!"

Lawyer Pei's face turned aside, and he didn't know why he was messing with Aye again.

He quickly took out a large string of copper coins from his arms, counted them, and placed them in front of Li Xuan.

Then, he stood up, carried a basket of steamed buns on the table, and walked out. Fortunately, there were not many servants and guards coming out this time, and each person could eat half a steamed bun.

After returning, Lawyer Pei was stunned.

I found that Aye and His Majesty were both lying on the table, with a bunch of calculations placed in front of each of them, frowning, concentrating on counting, and muttering constantly.

"Brother Li, what's going on?"

"My little master asked a calculation problem!" Li Wei whispered.

"What's the problem? How can Aye and the prince stump him?" Lawyer Pei was even more curious.

A trace of fear flashed in Li Wei's eyes and he whispered: "Nine hundred and ninety-nine cents, one thousand pears are bought in season. Nine pears are 11 cents, and seven fruits are 4 cents. How much does the pear fruit cost?"

"this?"

After hearing this, Lawyer Pei couldn't help but open his eyes and took a cold breath.

Is there such a problem in the world?

Thinking of it, I couldn't help but sit down subconsciously and start calculating.

Seeing this, a hint of satisfaction flashed in Li Xuan's eyes.

Sure enough, if you want to get rid of these people's "death pursuit and chastity", you can calm down as long as you find a calculation problem that he can't calculate.

Get up quietly and go out.

...

Half an hour later.

Pei Ji and Li Shimin still frowned, and there were still beads of sweat on their foreheads...

"Um?"

After looking up, Li Shimin was stunned.

"Li Wei, where is the young master?"

"Master, my master is resting in the main house!" Li Wei hurried back.

"Let's go find that young master!"

As he said that, Li Shimin stood up and followed Li Wei to the main house.

As soon as I entered the room, my eyes lit up.

The room is full of novel things, and even the decorations in the room are styles that I have never seen before.

Especially the front hall.

Only three strange and exquisite beard beds were placed, two small and one large, and there seemed to be several layers of animal fur on them!

Between the three Hu beds, there is also a small long table.

The young master was lying on a strange-looking Hu bed beside the window. The Hu bed was woven with rattan strips, and there was a small round table next to it.

It was swaying and it looked very comfortable.

"Li Wei, do you know what this is?"

Li Shimin asked, pointing to the three Hu beds in front of him.

"The Lord forgives sins, and this is the first time that a villain has seen this!"
