Little Lord of the Beast World

Although most orcs are simple and capable, it has to be admitted that there are some lazy people everywhere.In the past, when everyone worked together, if some people in a group did not work, it would seriously affect the others. Lin thought of using "work points" to count everyone's labor.But worried that everyone would not understand, he temporarily referred to counting work points as counting.Orcs still have a concept of numbers.

The method of counting the amount of labor by work points has been used in our country in the past, and there are many disadvantages. After all, it is still more advanced than the collective labor of the orcs today.Distributing the land to each household can certainly stimulate everyone's enthusiasm for labor, but with the current extremely low production conditions and few farm tools, it is still necessary to gather all the labor forces to work together to play the greatest role.

The people present were not used to hearing so many unheard of things at once, opened their mouths wide, and asked repeatedly in surprise: "There are so many things to pay attention to in farming? This is too troublesome, can you be busy?" Someone scratched his head stupidly: "Well, lord, I don't remember what you said, can you say it again."

Lin looked around, everyone's reactions were within his expectations, his expression remained calm: "It's okay if you don't remember, I will personally guide you."

The adults in the room discussed for a while, and it was Dajuan who spoke first, her eyes full of contempt: "I'm surprised, what are you thinking about? This is what Xiaolin learned from Wangdu, so what can be wrong? Xiaolin Let's just do what Lin says, and you can still be as smart as Xiao Lin?"

Everyone looked at the young boy in front of them, and couldn't help but feel that what Dajuan said was right: That's right, to come up with such new ideas, the lord must not be an ordinary person, can we still have lords and people from the capital who are smart?

"You Lin guides us, we can't go wrong." Everyone reacted and said that we followed the lord closely and resolutely listened to the lord's command. Brainstorming is not suitable for us.

No matter what everyone thinks in their hearts, at least on the surface they support it. Lin will take out the animal skins that they recorded the grouping situation they discussed in the afternoon, and discuss with everyone further.

There are nearly [-] hunting teams in two villages, but only two planting and gathering teams, and most of the members are old and weak women and children.Lin, Wu and the others streamlined the hunting team, temporarily assigning some members with poor hunting ability to the planting team.Each hunting team also calculates work points according to the amount of prey obtained.

The planting team is subdivided into groups of five or six people, and everyone can elect the group leader by themselves.Lin and the others will arrange farm work in advance according to the weather conditions. The work points for various farm work are different, and each team will take turns to collect them. After completion, they will get corresponding work points and will be recorded by a special person.

"That's the case for the time being. We will definitely have many things that we can't consider. I hope everyone will speak up when they encounter problems. As long as it is good for the territory, we will continue to improve." Lin finally concluded.

It sounds great.Everyone nodded in unison.

It was late at night, and the bustling crowd outside had dispersed, and the people in the meeting in the Lord's Mansion also left one by one.Some of them had a lot of thoughts, went back and thought about it for a long time, and felt that this territory was really about to change.

The next day was another sunny day.

Early in the morning, the largest hall in the front yard of the Lord's Mansion was full of people.A flat wooden board was hung on the wall facing the main entrance of the room. In the front row sat a few "literate people" in the territory, and in the back were a dozen or so children.

At this moment, Lin was standing beside the wooden board, facing dozens of eager, curious or blank gazes calmly.Looking around at everyone, he said slowly, "What I want to teach you today is a new and more convenient counting method. I hope you will learn it well."

Yes, for the convenience of recording work points, Lin is going to teach everyone Arabic numerals first.

In the text of the Beastman Continent, there are many strokes of numbers.Forget it, the counting method is still very strange, it turned out to be five bases.For example, if they want to record a large number like fifty, they will record it as "five fives and five fives".Fifty is fairly simple, but if you encounter one hundred or one thousand that are rarely used, the number of occurrences of "five" will definitely drive people crazy.

Such a counting method is too troublesome for ordinary orcs to master.Statistical work points only need to learn some simple numbers, and the mathematics level of the first grade of elementary school is completely competent.To this end, Lin recruited several literate adults in the territory, including Grandpa Wu, Steward Mai, his mother Quan, a beekeeper named Aji, and Wu's five or six students of different ages.

Besides them, there are two children from the village aged between ten and 14 years old.Children of this age are already more sensible, and they are almost a blank sheet of paper, so they are the easiest to accept new things.

Lin is going to give these people a few math lessons first, first deal with Chun Geng's work points records, and test everyone's acceptance by the way.

Lin has never been a teacher before, so he plans to accumulate some educational experience first, and then he will offer courses in characters, plants, and science in the future.

Talent is the cornerstone of the sustainable development of the territory, and now he often feels that no one is available.Many tasks require the person in charge to have certain knowledge, but there is a shortage of talents in the territory, so Mai and Yan have to work as several people.He now hopes to cultivate a group of usable people as soon as possible.

Of course, as the lord, he will definitely become more and more busy in the future, and it is impossible for him to be a teacher all the time.After these people have learned mathematics and other knowledge, they can be promoted to the entire territory.In the future, he will open a school in the territory so that everyone can go to school.

When everyone arrived, Lin used a charcoal pen to write the Arabic numerals from 0 to 10 on the wooden board, with the corresponding Orc Continent numerals marked below.Wu waited for Xiaolin to finish writing, read it several times, and became very surprised: "This is much more convenient to write! Xiaolin, did you learn this from Wangdu?"

Lin had already thought of an excuse: "Well, I saw it in a tattered animal skin book. I think it is very simple to write numbers this way, so I want to come back and teach you, so that it will be more convenient for us to use in the future. "If someone continues to ask where this animal skin is, he will say that it is too old and has rotted away.

But no one asked, but Wu was so surprised that he was about to jump up from the mat: "It's amazing. I don't know which smart person came up with it. It's so wonderful. You must learn it!" Although he is old, he likes it very much. Curious to learn new things.

Grandpa Wu has already spoken, and even if others have opinions, they dare not say anything.Don't talk nonsense, study hard.

Lin taught the reading and writing of these ten numbers, and led everyone to read them several times.Get people to read one by one.Except for a few children who stuttered in reading, everyone read well.

Lin was very satisfied, and wrote two symbols "+" and "=" on the wooden board: "This is a plus sign, which means to combine the two numbers before and after, and then write after this equal sign like a small bridge." Get the number." He listed the simplest "1+1=2", and then explained: "This is pronounced as 'one plus one equals two', meaning that one is added to one to get two."

Wu Ting nodded again and again: "It's very interesting, it looks so special." The black magical numbers are neatly arranged on the wooden board, and there is indeed a strange beauty.

Lin gave several examples one after another, why one giant hoofed ox plus one giant hoofed ox equals two giant hoofed oxen.After everyone had almost understood it, he listed several addition formulas within ten, and began to ask questions to the people in the hall.

Wu is particularly active and is always the first to ask for answers.He was really good at learning, and such a simple addition couldn't help him at all. "Grandpa Wu is amazing, everything is right." Lin praised.

Wu patted his beard triumphantly, raised his chin immediately after laughing, and turned his head to urge the others with proud eyes: "Everyone should study hard, don't even compare to me, an old guy."

Seeing that everyone accepted the addition within ten very quickly, Lin taught ten more numbers, expanding the addition to within twenty, which is almost enough to record the work points for a while.Time is running out, and it is temporarily impossible to teach step by step. It is time to test everyone's ability to accept.

A few adults can master it very quickly, because they can often count things, and there is not much difficulty within twenty.The dozen or so children learned well at the beginning, but later on it was a bit difficult to calculate more than ten plus a few, and they were even more confused when they encountered calculations that required rounding up. About half of them couldn't do it for a long time.

What surprised everyone the most was a thin, unremarkable girl.When Lin asked her a question, she lowered her head, but she didn't need to think about several additions within twenty in a row, and she gave the answer very quickly.

This girl is very talented in mathematics. Lin really did not expect that the children could give him such a surprise.He asked the girl kindly, "Your name is Xiaosui, right?" Lin has a good memory, and he can almost match the names of more than 300 people in the territory.

The girl looked up at the lord, a little at a loss: "Yes, lord, I'm Xiaosui."

"You are very smart, and you answered all correctly. I hope you will continue to study hard in the future. Grandpa Wu, please add her to your scoring team." Lin praised.He likes smart people best.Of course, children who perform well should be encouraged, so that everyone has the motivation to learn.

As for the scoring team, Wu is tentatively in charge. The members are mainly Wu's students. The daily job is to record work points and supervise the work progress of each team.It doesn't need to spend a lot of effort, and you still have a certain amount of power, and you can show your face in front of the lord a lot, which is a very decent job.

The girl's face was flushed with excitement, and her eyes were so bright that they could almost shine.All the children turned to look at her with envy in their eyes.

Today, I will come to class and learn knowledge from the lord, but all children with some conditions in the family will be dressed in the best clothes by their parents.But Xiaosui's animal fur coat was too short, and her elbows and knees had been worn white, obviously after wearing it for many years.The little girl is exactly the age of Aimi, and she has been hiding at the back.But at this moment, no one will care about her clothes.

Lin asked her to sit down, and selected a few children with a relatively high rate of correct answers to join the scoring team, and then said to Wu: "Grandpa Wu, I will trouble you about recording work points."

"Don't worry." Every wrinkle on Wu's face was full of fighting spirit, and he was full of energy. He couldn't wait to use the newly learned magic number.
