Everyone turned their heads: "Why don't you measure it?"

"That's it, what if the woman wrongly accused the girl, or the girl was really faking it? Only by measuring it can we know who is lying."

When the fat woman heard this, she also shouted to be measured.

Chu Ze raised his hand and pressed it down, saying: "What the aunt said is correct, but this girl is not pretending."

"Young master, what you said is interesting. The woman is right, the girl is right too. Could it be that this cloth can't be changed?"

"It's longer today and shorter tomorrow? Haha..."

There was laughter all around.

Zhao Si heard it and felt it was harsh.

"You all shut up! Our master said they were right, so they must be right. You all listen carefully!"

Hearing this, the people watching suddenly laughed out loud: "Brother, do you believe in your master too much? Your master is right in everything? Then if your master says that shit tastes delicious, Do you have to take a few bites too? Haha..."

"..." Zhao Si's face turned red with anger.

"Don't worry, everyone, what we said makes sense." Chu Ze raised his hand and pressed down, and said loudly, "We say they are both right because they use different rulers. If you insist on measuring, , then please ask this girl to take out her ruler and measure it again in front of everyone."

Ya'er said: "Okay, I'll get it now."

"Wait, I'll go with him to save her from running away in a while." The uncle holding the stick followed Ya'er, slammed the stick with a fierce expression, and glared at Ya'er.

Ya'er was startled and shrank and nodded.

Ya'er leaves quickly and comes back faster.

"Bring it here." Ya'er came over and opened the small cloth bag in her arms, revealing the millet inside.

Chu Ze took one look and asked him and the others to find a spacious place, unfold the cloth, and then each took one side and lined up the millet one by one.

While they were arranging the millet, Chu Ze stood aside and watched.

This kind of ruler is called millet ruler.

The millet seeds are arranged one by one, and a row of one hundred grains is considered a foot.

After a while, both sides of the cloth were filled.

"Okay, everyone has seen it, the cloth is still four feet short." The fat woman stood up and proudly called people around to come and take a look.

Everyone followed her instructions and looked over, and sure enough they saw that the cloth was defective.

But there are many more on Ya'er's side opposite.

When they were arranged just now, someone was counting on the side, which was enough to ensure that both of them took out the same amount of millet.

"This is too different..." Zhao Si frowned.

The Ming Dynasty also used millet ruler.

So the sizes of many things are actually just about the same size.

If you want to say they are completely consistent, there are some, but few.

It's just that such a big gap is relatively rare.

The people watching were also talking about it.

Calculating it according to their own millet, both of them have no problem.

As Chu Ze said, they are both right about this.

But this...

Chu Ze spoke up at the right time: "The millet ruler relies on millet seeds, and the millet seeds will also have differences due to reasons such as age, planting, and drying. In addition, each person's placement method is different, and the differences between them are also different. The gap has widened, which is why the current situation has occurred. If you don't stop, you can take a closer look at the difference between the two people." Chu Ze pointed to Di Tan, and everyone followed his words and looked at him carefully.

Before, they only cared about the number of millet, but didn't pay too much attention to other things.

Now that Chu Ze mentioned it, they discovered that the millet on the ground was of different sizes visible to the naked eye.

Coupled with the placement techniques of the two, the gap between the two is infinitely magnified.

So, there is this difference of several feet.

The fat woman was also watching. After watching for a moment, her face turned red. She pointed at Ya'er and reprimanded loudly: "She did it on purpose! She just chose the worst millet on purpose, just to give me less cloth!" And when I lent it to her, I measured it in this way!"

Ya'er kept shaking her head: "No, it's really not. This is the best millet I can produce."

Chu Ze could tell that Ya'er wasn't lying.

As for the fat woman, he didn't know if she was lying, but she was indeed a bit aggressive.

"Well, let's make up for the shortfall in money for this little girl." Seeing that Ya'er was pitiful, Chu Ze took the initiative to repay the money for her. Not only did he repay the money for her, but he also said, "You should be able to hear the accent. Come on, we are not from Ryukyu. In the Ming Dynasty, there is a centimeter ruler. This ruler is one ten millionth of the way from the pole to the equator. This one ten millionth is called a meter. Put this ruler The meter is equally divided into [-] parts and becomes centimeters. Such a ruler will be more accurate than a millet ruler, and it is also easy to carry and affordable for every household. In the future, there will no longer be differences between each family's millet. That led to things like this.”

After Chu Ze finished speaking, everyone was confused.

After Chu Ze said that he was from the Ming Dynasty, everyone was stunned.

As for the content that followed, they didn't understand a single word.

What centimeters, what equator, they seemed to be listening to heaven's book.

But they understood the rest of the words.

In an instant, the way they looked at Chu Ze changed: "Is this thing you are talking about invented by the Ming Dynasty?"

"That's right, I heard from my cousin who runs business every day that the Ming Dynasty is very powerful now. There is also a guy named Chu who invented many things. Is he the one who invented this thing?"

"So what does this thing look like? Take it out and let us have a look."

Chu Ze listened and thought that we didn't invent this, but he could borrow it.

As for the centimeter ruler...

"Yes." Chu Ze doesn't have it now, but he can make it, "But we have just arrived here and there are a lot of things. Why don't we ask everyone to find an inn to stay with us first, and then we can sort out the things? How about taking it out and showing it to everyone?"

Everyone looked at Chu Ze and then at each other.

"Master, Ya'er will go with you." Ya'er was the first to stand up.

Chu Ze helped her just now. Even if Chu Ze told lies, she was willing to support him.

The second person to stand up was the fat woman: "I also want to see what kind of centimeter ruler this is."

Someone took the lead, and others stepped forward one after another.

However, the purpose is not entirely the same.

Some really want to see the so-called centimeter ruler, while others just want to join in the fun.

If Chu Ze couldn't get it out, they would be amused.

With a slight smile on his face, Chu Ze saw everyone's thoughts clearly but did not refute them.

In order to see the centimeter ruler as soon as possible, someone even offered to help Chu Ze and the others find a place to stay.

Finally, Chu Ze and his party stayed at Sihai Inn.

Chu Ze ordered Zhao Si to move all his luggage to the room. After doing this, Chu Ze asked him to buy some prepared cowhide.

"Master, what do you want these for? You don't want to make them fresh, do you?" (End of Chapter)
