"Then... let's live as long as possible..." Faced with Lyon's Japanese question, after hesitating for a while, the administrator's aunt still couldn't resist the temptation to witness the completion of the new workhouse with her own eyes, and finally chose to agree to Lyon's proposal. But even so, she couldn't help but exhort: "But you don't have to be too deliberate. The old man and I have lived for so long, and we are very satisfied. There is no need to go to war for us." "Hmm, definitely not." After hearing the words of the administrator's aunt, Leon responded with a smile on the surface, but he still made up his mind. When the new workhouse starts construction, he must think carefully about how to do it, and try his best to save the old couple. Save it. If the old couple has really lived enough and wants to rest forever, he really has no reason to stop it, but now they are obviously still thinking about it, they just don't want their existence to affect the completion of the new almshouse, then I definitely have to do a good job of "operating in the dark". And just when Lyon, who was "difference between appearance and duplicity", was thinking about how to be a permission dog and keep a happy apartment as quietly as possible, three familiar footsteps came from outside the door. Immediately afterwards, Anna, whose face was slightly darkened, appeared outside the apartment door with her left hand holding William, who looked calm, and her right hand holding Melanie, whose eyes were full of despair. "Sister Anna, slow down, can you walk slower?"
Melanie, who had a red ear and had obviously been severely twisted by someone, begged with a mournful face: "It's not five o'clock yet. We don't have to go home in such a hurry, right? Also, I was in the small garden just now and saw Grandpa John repairing the fence. Why don't you go and help him first?" "Melanie, you'd better accept your fate." Before the dark-faced Anna could reply, William, whose ear was also red, said calmly: "According to what I know about Sister Anna, today's beating cannot be escaped. If she vents her anger right away, we might be able to avoid two more blows, but if she holds it in for a while, it will be hard to say. " "..." Good guy... I finally took two days off, but as soon as I came back I was so excited... Looking at his brothers and sisters who were at war with each other outside the gate, the corner of Leon's mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly. Then under the amused eyes of the administrator, he took the initiative to greet him and asked helplessly: "Anna...what trouble did they get into this time?" "Huh?" After hearing Leon's voice, Anna, who was wrestling with her sister who was desperately trying to hold on to the steps and didn't want to go home, suddenly looked up in surprise and said with some surprise: "whats up with you today……" "Brother!!!" Before Anna could finish her words, Melanie, who had just been unable to go up the steps, suddenly catapulted away and rushed into the hall with a swish. She hid behind Leon skillfully and grabbed him. trouser legs. "Brother, you don't look good!" Seeing the savior of her little ass appear, Melanie, who had been filled with despair just now, suddenly smiled like a morning glory. Then she winked at Leon and said with earnestness: "Are you too tired from work? Can I give you a squeeze on your shoulder? How about I tell you a story?" "decide as things go……" Faced with the unusually well-behaved performance of his little sister, Leon, who understood deeply, reached out to touch her little head and gave her a helpless smile.
"Our family has to listen to your sister Anna. Only after she tells you what's going on can the eldest brother know whether he is tired or whether he needs someone to squeeze his shoulders." "It's not that exaggerated..." After hearing Leon's words, Anna's cheeks couldn't help but blush slightly, and she complained a little bit angrily. Then in Melanie's desperate eyes, she used the method that she must kill her sister - twisting her ears, pinching her little ears and exerting force. Twisted half a circle. "I'll settle the score with you when I get home!" After issuing a tactical threat to the little sister who failed to escape, and pulling her out from behind Leon, Anna first said hello to the administrator, then turned to look at Leon, and asked curiously: "Why are you back so early today?" "Well...because I have been working a lot of overtime recently, the bureau gave me a few days off." He didn't say anything about going on a "business trip" to the Kingdom of Crook. After giving a casual reason to prevaricate, Leon picked up his younger brother who still looked calm and walked towards the stairwell while asking curiously: "Forget me, what trouble did the two of them get into that made you so angry?" "Brother, you are prejudiced." After hearing Leon's inquiry, William put on a straight face and retorted seriously: "Although Melanie and I are a little naughty, we are not the ones who only get into trouble." "So you haven't caused any trouble during this time?" "Provoked." "..." "Brother, don't get me wrong." Seeing Leon's speechless expression, William immediately explained with a serious face: "Although we did cause trouble, Sister Anna was angry this time not because we caused trouble, but because her academic performance was poor. This is an intellectual problem and we cannot be blamed." "How dare you say that!" After hearing William's explanation, Anna who was following behind suddenly turned darker, couldn't help pinching him angrily, and then couldn't help complaining to Leon: "Brother! You don't know how annoying these two are! In this exam, the last question of the math section was written like this: Because the waiting time for a public horse-drawn carriage is too long, the Road Administration Department plans to add a public horse-drawn carriage service on Jianqiao Street, but due to limited funds, only 2 new carriages can be allocated. It is known that there were originally 4 horse-drawn carriages on Jianqiao Street, and the carriages operate for 18 hours a day. After each carriage departs for 3 hours, it can return to the starting point to pick up passengers again. How should it be arranged to solve the waiting problem to the greatest extent? ” How can we solve the waiting problem? After listening to Anna's words, Leon tried to figure out this math problem. The road administration department has limited funds and can only allocate 2 new cars. Together with the original 4 cars, there are 6 cars. Each car runs once every 3 hours, and the total operating time of a day is 18 hours, so each car can run 6 times, which means a total of 36 times. If you calculate it this way, 36 cars in 18 hours, that is, one every half hour... No! When thinking of this, Leon suddenly realized that this seemingly simple problem actually lurked a very insidious trap.
Although it seems that each car can run 6 times in 18 hours, in fact, these 6 carriages do not set off at the beginning of the morning, but only set off once every period of time, so in fact, only one car can run 6 times a day. "Well... For children, this problem is indeed very difficult. " After frowning slightly, Leon said in confusion: "William and the others are transfer students. They have learned much less than other children. It is normal that they can't answer. Is it necessary to be so angry?" "I am not angry that he can't answer, I am angry that he can answer!" Anna was particularly annoyed when she heard this: "William's arrangement is to give a speech on the street first, accusing the Road Administration of eating up the funds, stirring up the dissatisfaction of the residents of Bridge Street, and putting pressure on the management, and then requesting to check the account books of the carriage company to check whether there are overspending. After finding the mistakes of the Road Administration and the carriage company, then find a way to report to the councillors, threaten him by influencing the regional vote, and let the councillors propose to increase funds. When the proposal is put on the agenda, raise funds to buy off the tabloids to create momentum, questioning whether the Road Administration, which is short of funds for carriages, is too corrupt, or even colluding with the councillors to be corrupt, and relying on public opinion pressure to force the councillors not to vote against it, so that the proposal to increase carriages will be passed, so that there will be no shortage of carriages!
