Outside the huge Tongque Terrace, elephants specially transported from Soochow to Handan have already been leisurely eating branches and leaves in the courtyard.
Hundreds of officials gathered together chattering and marveling at this huge monster that had never been seen before.
For Bu Nian, the elephant, which is easily seen on TV and in zoos, has now become the object of amazement.Hearing a long cry, the elephant raised its trunk and neighed, but several timid officials fell to the ground in fright.
"Elephant, elephant." After walking out of the Tongque Terrace, he cheered from his heart and ran towards the elephant, showing no sign of fear.
Yan Ran's expression changed, and she shouted, "You Xin! It's dangerous, come back quickly."
Youxin didn't care what Yanran was talking about, cheered all the way, ran to the elephant, raised her hand to hug the elephant's long trunk.
"So cute! Much cuter than my brother!"
Seeing that the elephant didn't intend to attack You Xin, Yan Ran was relieved.
Compared to Yan Ran's panic, Cao Cao was much calmer. He had sent someone to investigate the character of the thing beforehand to ensure that it would not hurt anyone, so he called a few people to watch.
"Your Excellency." Upon seeing Cao Cao's appearance, all the officials returned to their senses and bowed their heads.
Cao Cao nodded, but his eyes were still on the elephant.He pondered for a moment and said: "When Soochow sent the elephant, it also asked me a problem - can I measure the weight of the elephant. Do you have any good ideas?"
As soon as the words fell, the officials exploded.
Before Cao Cao could speak again, a few officials who were not too high-status and eager to flatter them spoke impatiently.
"Your Excellency, I feel that you can slaughter the elephant and weigh the meat piece by piece. That will be the weight of the elephant!"
"No, no, in my opinion, it's better to make a huge weight first."
Seeing that the voices of the officials are getting louder and louder, the methods proposed are getting more and more absurd.
Obviously, Cao Cao was also very dissatisfied with these answers, and frowned slightly.If you can't send a reasonable answer to Soochow, don't say that you were humiliated in the Battle of Chibi back then, and you will be ridiculed by Soochow now.
Suddenly, Cao Chong in Cao Cao's arms kicked his feet.
Before Cao Cao had time to ask, Bu Nian, who had put all his attention on Cao Chong, immediately stepped forward, grabbed Cao Chong into his arms, and raised his hand to cover Cao Chong's mouth tightly.
"Heh...heh, I'm here to hug the hamster, Meng De, go and see You Xin, don't let her have any trouble." Don't read a few dry laughs, looking forward to Cao Cao immediately, and immediately lowered his head to Cao Chong and said: "Did you come up with an idea?! Mother can warn you, absolutely, absolutely, you must not speak."
Cao Chong blinked: "How did Mother know that Chong'er has an idea?"
Bu Nian cursed secretly in his heart, nonsense, son, you don't even know how famous you will be in the future.
"It seems that today is destined to be ridiculed by Soochow." Cao Cao walked back to Bu Nian and sneered with his back to the officials.
Seeing Cao Cao's frustrated appearance, Cao Chong couldn't help shouting: "Daddy..."
"Hey! Meng De, I have an idea!" Bu Nian shouted beforehand.
Because she was in a hurry to stop Cao Chong, the voice of Bu Nian was accidentally out of control, causing all the officials to look at her.
In desperation, Bu Nian could only bite the bullet and said: "This...it's very simple. You, you send someone to prepare a big boat, and then drive the elephants to the big boat. How deep is the water in the river? , make a mark. Then you load the ship with stones, and when the ship sinks to the previously marked position, you weigh the stone, which is the weight of the elephant.”
