Xue Xiaohua and Xue Bainian shook their heads, but Xue Baijun still looked like I was dissatisfied.

Knowing Xue Baijun’s temper, Bai Wenjing slowed down and said with a serious face: “It doesn’t matter if I didn’t count it. I just went to your father to see the situation. We are safe here for the time being. What we have to do now is to protect other villagers. Is it possible to prevent spies from getting in?"

"Can."

Xue Baijun almost agreed without thinking, and Bai Wenjing finally breathed a sigh of relief.

When he lowered his head, he saw Xue Bainian holding her leg pitifully and said, "Mother, can I go too?"

"Of course, we are all good helpers for Daddy, aren't we?"

"Yes!!!"

The three little guys all responded, sounding energetic.

"Okay, then go with me now."

Bai Wenjing pulled Xue Xiaohua one by one, and Xue Bainian one by one. Xue Baijun walked in front, and several people walked towards the first cave.

"Mother, will it be too slow for us to count one by one like this? It's better to pick out a person from each cave and let him count. Then we will report the number together. Mother, let's count the number of people in each cave. Write it down, it won't be enough."

Bai Wenjing was stunned after hearing Xue Baijun's proposal.

She didn't expect Xue Baijun's little head to be so smart.

So he nodded and said, "Well, your proposal is really great. It will do more with less. My mother decides, just do it the way you said."

When he reached the first cave entrance, Bai Wenjing said to the people inside: "I am the person sent by your magistrate grandfather. Now you need to select a person in charge from among them who will be responsible for registering the population in this cave. The details are required. The total number of elderly, children and women, including those who are stationed at the gates of the family, will also be assigned food uniformly by that person."

As soon as everyone heard it, they immediately started talking.

Bai Wenjing frowned and asked: "What? Do you understand?"

However, after she had finished speaking, the people around seemed to have not heard it. They were just chatting on their own. Bai Wenjing couldn't help but frown when she saw the situation.

"Then you continue to make noise, I have already asked the county magistrate, the food stored in the town is only enough to eat for seven days, if you don't make a decision, then you will be deemed to have given up."

Bai Wenjing said to turn around and leave, only to hear a loud voice from the crowd: "Just be quiet, all be quiet. Everyone listens to me, all quiet down."

Sure enough, after saying this, everyone calmed down and stared at him.

It was an old man who was over 60 or 70 years old and said: "You said you were sent by the county master, how do you prove it?"

"This is the proof."

Bai Wenjing raised the thing in her hand. It was the talisman given to her by the county magistrate. The old man immediately said, "If it is so, we must follow the arrangement of the lady. Madam, please do your business first and wait for me. After checking the number of people, we must come to you to report the number in person."

"Um."

Bai Wen answered faintly, and then took the three guys around him to the second cave.

After learning the previous lesson, Bai Wenjing took out the talisman directly this time, and then said the same things as in the first cave entrance, which really saves a lot of trouble.

After giving orders to these caves, Bai Wen counted them quietly. There are as many as 45 caves. The caves are dug in hidden places on the mountain. One cave can accommodate 20 or 30 people. Although the conditions are not very good, there can be. A safe place to stay.

This is the total population of the town.

When she finished all the notifications, the horizon was white, and the caves had come to report the numbers one by one. Bai Wenjing recorded the numbers of men, women, and children on the paper, and then looked at Xue Bojun.

"Bo Jun, can you figure this out, okay?"

After Bai Wenjing finished speaking, he handed the paper and pen to Xue Bojun directly. Xue Bojun was stunned for a moment when he saw what Xue Changan handed him, especially after seeing the number written on it, he didn't know how to calculate the total. I knew it was just a cave with more than 20 people in it.

Xue Baijun broke his fingers to and fro, but didn't figure it out at all.

In the end, I was anxious and said: "Mother, I count, but I still don't know how to count. Mother, there are so many people, how can I count clearly."

Xue Baijun would cry when he said this.

"Take it easy."

Bai Wenjing spoke softly, took out a pen to mark all the numbers individually, and then said: "Let's take it step by step, you see, these are the number of children, so we count the children first, then the elderly and women."

Xue Baijun nodded and frowned, "But I have paper and pen, but no abacus. Even if I have an abacus, I won't count."

Hearing the voice, Xue Baijun was extremely depressed, and looked at Bai Wenjing eagerly, as if he had something to say.

"Does the mother need to make it clear? Why do you all know how to do arithmetic?"

When Xue Bainian heard this, he cried out with a wow, crying as he said: "Mother, it's all my fault for not studying well."

Bai Wenjing couldn't help but want to laugh, but Xue Bainian was the first to comprehend it.

Xue Xiaohua also shook her arm cautiously and said: "Mother, I know I was wrong, I still have to learn, mother, will you let Dad teach us more in the future?"

There were villagers around who couldn't stand it anymore, and came out to round the scene and said, "Actually, just call everyone out and count them."

Bai Wenjing said indifferently: "The target is too big to be called out, and it is easy to be spotted by the enemy."

Xue Baijun said: "Then let's go to the cave, first click all the children, then all the old people, and then all the women..."

"Then order everyone again?"

Bai Wenjing asked Xue Baijun, and Xue Baijun stopped talking for a moment.

The old man who opened his mouth stopped talking at this time, and Bai Wenjing simply said: "Old man, the suggestions you two made are very good, so please take my child to check it out."

Xue Baijun immediately became happy when his mother accepted his suggestion, and said, "Binian Xiaohua, you two are with me."

Upon hearing this, Xue Xiaohua immediately hid beside Bai Wenjing: "I don't want to go, I want to be with my mother."

"Just forget it if you don't go."

Xue Baijun glanced at Xue Baijun contemptuously, and took Xue Bainian with the old man.

Bai Wenjing directly worked out the formula with a pen, and got all the answers in less than a minute.

"All right."

Bai Wenjing clapped his hands and said, "There are 198 children. Seventy-eight old people, 375 women, 503 men. The total number is 1,154."

Xue Xiaohua was stunned. She covered her mouth with her hands and stared at her mother and said: "Mother, you, why are you so amazing?"
