Chapter 51 Children who take the initiative to learn
"Brother! Brother!"
At night, Liu Shui ran to Liu Cheng's room, shouting all the way.
"Today, one hundred and eighty-three portions of braised pork were sold today! After excluding the cost, you can still earn thirty yuan per portion!..."
As soon as Liu Shui came in, he began to continuously report today's profits to Liu Cheng.
Every face turned a little red due to excessive excitement.
"Brother, even if you exclude the cost of the free trial dishes and the buy-one-get-one-free dishes today, you still made a net profit of 8,631 yuan!"
"Eight thousand six hundred and thirty-one dollars!!"
"Eight thousand six hundred and thirty-one dollars!!!"
At this moment, Liu Shui completely transformed into a repeater, and the volume was getting louder and louder. He kept chanting in front of Liu Cheng, and his excitement was beyond words.
No wonder he was so excited. When he was in his hometown in Chenggao, his brother killed pigs for others. After a year, he was busy and exhausted, but he could only earn more than two thousand dollars.
As a result, now, on the first day that the restaurant has just opened, it has made so much money all at once. It makes more money in one day than in previous years!
Faced with such a situation, how could Liu Shui be unhappy?!
Liu Chenggong had already anticipated that restaurants could make money at the beginning.
After all, he invented iron pot cooking, and also contributed the high-level cooking skills he learned at New Oriental, and on the opening day, he will also offer free samples, as well as buy one get one free
Very advanced, but very useful methods were used.
Under such circumstances, it is impossible for this restaurant not to make money.
However, the figures he heard from Liu Shui at this time were still somewhat beyond Liu Cheng's expectations, making Liu Cheng a little surprised.
It seems that I underestimated the proportion of foodies among the Han people, the charm of iron pot cooking, the power of the propaganda methods of later generations, and the number of wealthy people in Luoyang.
"Work hard! The days will be more and more promising!"
Liu Cheng smiled and slapped Liu Shui on the shoulder.
Liu Shui nodded vigorously!
"Brother, please teach me arithmetic. All kinds of things need to be accounted for, and I can't even do it. Today, I had to step back and help me do the calculations."
After about a quarter of an hour, Liu Shui gradually recovered from the excitement of making a lot of money for the first time, and then began to proactively ask Liu Cheng to learn.
Naturally, Liu Cheng would not refuse his brother's request. In later generations, there would not be many children who were so eager to learn and actively asked to learn.
Now Liu Chenggong found pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
Paper already existed and could be purchased at this time. After all, the cheap Caihou paper had been produced a hundred or two hundred years ago. Nowadays, paper that can be used for writing has already appeared.
The writing effect is not as good as the common writing paper used by Liu Cheng in later generations.
But it is enough to teach Liu Shui arithmetic.
After grinding the ink, Liu Cheng put a pen on a piece of paper and wrote out ten Arabic numerals from 0 to 9.
In order to make it easier for Liu Shui to remember and connect with this era, Liu Cheng wrote down the ten Arabic numerals from zero to nine under the ten Arabic numerals. For people of this era, these ten are considered lowercase forms of numbers.
word.
Then use a clean writing brush to point at the number and start reading...
Interest is the best teacher. People who are extremely thirsty for knowledge can learn very efficiently.
It only took a quarter of an hour for Liu Shui to memorize these nine numbers that he had never seen before, and he was also able to write them down silently.
Even if Liu Cheng messed up their order, Liu Shui would still not mistake them.
Liu Cheng reversed the order and read randomly, asking Liu Shui to take dictation, and Liu Shui was able to write it well.
Under the eager gaze of Liu Shui, who had reached this point and wanted to start learning arithmetic formally, Liu Cheng cleared his throat, then picked up the ink-stained brush and once again wrote '+'—' on the paper.
The two Liu Shui had never seen symbols before, so Liu Shui remembered.
Liu Shui, who was full of expectations and felt that he could finally learn advanced arithmetic, suddenly lost his composure.
However, at the next moment, he quickly memorized these two unfamiliar symbols.
Not only remember what they are called, what they look like, and how to write them, but also what they represent.
After such a thing was finally completed, under Liu Shui's eager eyes, Liu Cheng took two large pieces of paper and placed them in front of Liu Shui. There were many things written on them, all of which were simple, adding up to ten points.
Subtraction operation.
At the same time, he told Liu Shui to answer all the arithmetic questions on these two pages first, and then he would teach him more advanced arithmetic.
Suddenly seeing the dense arithmetic problems written by his brother using the special numbers and symbols he had just learned on these two large pieces of paper, Liu Shui felt his scalp numb for a moment.
He looked up at Liu Cheng, his eyes looking a little dull.
Liu Cheng smiled: "What are you looking at? Write quickly, write all these questions again, add and subtract within ten, and you will be able to master them skillfully and learn more advanced arithmetic."
Liu Shui soon began the difficult process of arithmetic.
Looking at Liu Shui, who was lying in front of the table and counting with his fingers, Liu Cheng yawned and showed a knowing smile on his face.
In the past, I just let others assign homework to me, but now the situation has changed, and it is finally my turn to assign homework to others. I stand here and watch it leisurely.
Not to mention, this feeling is really wonderful...
