Chapter 14 Chapter 3 5

When Wang Xianke came to Chang'an, he brought a load of silver. In the autumn of that year, the load of silver had been spent, and even the mule carrying the silver was sold.Before anyone said that he was Yu Xuanji's old friend, he had already started to think about what to do when the money was gone, whether to send a letter back, ask his hometown to send someone to bring some money, or take time to go to Fengxiang Prefecture, where There is a classmate who is an official.But after hearing that he was Yu Xuanji's old friend, he felt that there was no rush.First figure out who you are, and then it's not too late to do these things.He spent all day in the house around the quilt thinking hard, and before he knew it, he ran out of money and sold the horse.When he ran out of money, Boss Sun called Father Wang An and kicked him out. At this time, he understood what he was looking for: it was neither Wu Shuang nor Yu Xuanji, but a bowl of Yang Chun. money to feed the hunger.

We Beijingers have an old saying, don’t get sick if you have everything, and don’t have money if you have nothing.This is indeed a wise statement.But Wang Xianke has never experienced these two situations, this is because he is young and strong, and his health is very good; and because he is a son of a son, he only worries about having money but nowhere to spend it, never worrying about having no money.But later he experienced both situations.First, he was said to be Yu Xuanji's old friend, and he had a mental breakdown; later, he found out that he was penniless, and he was almost starved to death.Fortunately, these two wretched situations are incompatible: a man with a nervous breakdown always has a little money, and a man with no money never has a nervous breakdown.When he was rich, Wang Xianke was lying on the bed, thinking about some strange thoughts: How could I go to the jail and rape Yu Xuanji and forget about it?This is illogical.But it's also illogical for me not to forget about doing something bad like that.In order to solve the confusion in his heart, Wang Xianke began to turn to the innate magic number, Yin Yang and Five Elements, trying to figure it out.But the more calculations become more chaotic.Then he doubted his calculus ability and planned to prove it by taking a square root.But he happened to choose 2 to take the square root, and found that it was endless. Not only did he do calculations on all the paper at hand, but he also completely filled the floor, walls, and ceiling.If you choose 4 to take the square root, the result will not be so miserable.Until he was kicked out of the inn, he was still counting, and he even forgot to take the binoculars in a daze, otherwise the thing could be exchanged for some money from the Persians, so he wouldn't be penniless right away.

Before Wang Xianke was kicked out of Xuanyangfang, he was holding a bamboo pole with a writing brush tied to the end, and was writing calculations on the ceiling.As far as I know, he used the square root of McLaughlin's series, which has reached the fifth thousandth term.This seems like nothing now, and it can be done with a PC; but it was a remarkable scientific achievement at the time.But Boss Sun, who runs the inn, didn't understand this, and just cursed at him, saying that Wang Xianke was a lunatic who dirty his house.In fact, Wang Xianke is not completely crazy, and his thinking is still logical: he wants to open up this square to verify that he has the ability to calculate; and then calculate the innate magic number to figure out who he is.After these two things are done, then decide whether to go to Wushuang, to go to someone else, or to go to no one at all.

After Wang Xianke was kicked out, the telescope belonged to Boss Sun.He tidied up the house where the binoculars were kept, and tripled the rent.But the house was never vacant again.Every night, some voyeuristic old men come to rent this room, the purpose of which is, of course, to use a telescope to watch women take a bath.This thing is really extraordinary, every woman in the whole square who is taking a bath can see it.The fly in the ointment is that the image is facing down, as if it is holding a big top.There are also large aberrations, thick in the middle and small at the ends.No matter how standard the woman's measurements are, she looks like a date pit, and her belly button is as big as a small iron pot.

Regarding this point, I have one more point to add: In a civilized society, everyone knows that women are a precious resource, and sleeping with them will bring great pleasure, and if you can't sleep, looking at them is quite satisfying.Because of this, women can neither sleep with anyone casually, nor watch others casually, otherwise it would be too bad. After Wang Xianke got out, the women no longer needed to wear iron crotches, and they felt very happy.Because when you want to poop and pee, you don't have to worry about asking for the key anymore.When you are in a hurry, the head of the family is not at home, and you send your children to look for it, but you don’t know if you can find it. That feeling is really uncomfortable.But if you don't wear iron crotch, any self-respecting woman is unwilling to do it, because any self-respecting woman thinks that she will be raped at any time.That's how people who sell iron crotches get rich.

As far as I know, people may have two different purposes when writing calculations.One is to solve a certain problem. In this case, there may be a result, but if it is not calculated, the harm is not great, because it can be calculated next time; the other is to prove that one is very smart, so that the calculation will never fail As a result, the harm is very great.In that case you might as well get someone to flatter you, say you're smart, you're a genius.There are two purposes for people to write, one is to tell others something, and the other is to make others think you are very sweet and well-behaved.My personal writing is always the former situation.If I encounter the latter situation, I will never waste paper and pen, but find those who need flattery and shoot them face to face; this is more efficient.It was because Wang Xianke made a mistake in calculation that he couldn't figure it out.Since this book is about encounters with wisdom, it is not a digression to mention these.
