Many people say that nowadays it is a world of face-seeking, and people have advantages in everything they look good at.

In fact, it's not just today, the only thing that has remained unchanged for human beings since ancient times is probably the pursuit of appearance. In ancient China, if your figure and appearance were not up to par, it was difficult to even take the imperial examination, let alone become an official.

Especially in the Tang and Song dynasties, the requirements for the appearance of candidates were extremely strict.

Candidates from all over the country through the imperial examination through the selection of the Jinshi and the first or the list of eyes, after the flower, do not directly confer the official, must pass the official selection of the ministry, this is also the most important level, through this pass can obtain the official position, take office.

The main criterion for the selection of officials in the Tang Dynasty is the "body and speech, writing, judgment", the body appearance is the first, the court believes that the official is the face of the court, representing the prestige of the court, so the requirements for the official's body and appearance are stricter, too tall, too short, too fat, too ugly or bad eloquence will affect the candidate's career.

One of the more typical examples is the famous genius Zhong Kui in the Tang Dynasty.

Legend has it that Zhong Kui failed to enter the Beijing exam because his appearance was not up to standard, and he died in the main hall in his last anger.

In the Tianbao years, Tang Xuanzong Li Longji in Lintong Lishan after preaching martial arts, occasionally suffered from spleen disease, long cure, one night dreamed of a strange appearance of a big man, caught a small ghost, gouged out his eyeballs, and ate him.

The Great Han claimed that he was "a Jinshi who failed to pass the palace test, Zhong Kui", and the emperor woke up from a dream and immediately recovered from his illness. So, he ordered Wu Daozi to make a picture of Zhong Kui's ghost hunting scene in his dream and hang it in the palace to ward off evil spirits and suppress demons.

The famous poet Zhang Jiuling's worship is largely because of his "body", after his resignation, whenever the prime minister recommends the minister, Tang Xuanzong has to ask: "Is your demeanor like Jiuling?"

Song Shenzong was even more exaggerated, and he actually promoted male actors, for no other reason, that is, his good looks.

According to the record of "Pingzhou Can Talk", this handsome guy is called Wang Zhen, but he is not embarrassed at all, he is quite handsome. In the historical books, he is described as "looking cold and jade, condensing autumn water, and his posture is very beautiful", and he is nicknamed "Qijun Wang Jialang".

Wang Jialang was not only handsome, but also good at singing and dancing, and was a well-known singer at the time, and was the pillar of the Royal Song and Dance Troupe.

But it has not yet reached the point of virtue and art.

Because of the poor character and the lack of ink, there is a lot of criticism in the market.

Even so, Prime Minister Cai did recommend him as the supervisor and serve as a discipline inspection official, and Song Shenzong readily agreed as soon as he heard "Wang Jialang".

Facts have proved that even if it is a talent recommended by the same prime minister, the development of handsome guys and ugly men in officialdom is very different.

is still this prime minister, Cai Qu recommended an extremely talented ugly man to Song Zhezong this time, named Yuan Yingzhong, who is definitely a rich man. This guy is not only full of pockmarks, but also seems to be a little disabled, his shoulder blades are a little crooked, and his shoulders are always slanted. Whether sitting or walking, it always looks awkward.

Song Zhezong looked at it, Emma, I am so stumbling, will I still be able to eat in the future? The key is that I am sorry for the audience! Zhezong was very displeased, and without saying a word, he directly waved his hand and let the ugly man retreat.

There are countless examples that prove the importance of appearance.

In today's society, handsome men or beautiful women, not to mention how much help they have in their careers, just in daily life, handsome guys and beauties can enjoy completely different treatment from ugly men and ugly women.

In this regard, Huang Tongtong, who has a face value of 93 points, has a deep understanding.

However, in addition to enjoying the convenience brought by good looks, Huang Tongtong has to face all kinds of troubles that come with good looks, especially in his career, he frequently encounters sex from his boss and boss... Harass.

Huang Tongtong, who is unwilling to accept the unspoken rules, can only change jobs frequently, and in the three or four years since she worked, she has changed her job 18 times, and even the cities where she works have changed 6.

And just a month ago, she lost her job again for the same reason.

Now she is 27 years old, and when she reaches the most critical age in the workplace, it is becoming more and more difficult for her to find a suitable job without a boyfriend, and the easy jobs are basically for her beauty, and she doesn't want to repeat her previous work experience over and over again.

Therefore, Huang Tongtong, who was already disgusted, decided to go back to his hometown of Gui Province, find an ordinary job casually, and then follow his parents' arrangement to find an honest man to marry locally.

Huang Tongtong's hometown is Luan Town, Anguang County, which is directly under the provincial capital, and she is chatting with her parents on this day, since she went to college and then went out to work, she has rarely had time to be with her parents for seven or eight years, which is also one of the reasons why she made up her mind to leave those first-tier cities and run back to her hometown in Guizhou Province for development.

was talking to his parents about what kind of job he wanted to do next, and Huang Tongtong received a call from his girlfriend.

As soon as the phone was connected, the excited voice of the girlfriend came.

"Tongtong, you are now 'immediately' and 'immediately' rush to the provincial capital for me!"

"Sasha, didn't I promise you to go to the provincial capital to play with you in a few days, why did you call to urge me!"

"Tongtong, let me tell you, there is a super suitable job for you now, do you want to come and have a look?"

"Is it such an exaggeration? It's super suitable for my job, you don't know my situation, I already hate 'secretarial', 'public relations' and other jobs!"

"Of course I know, if it's that kind of position, I can't tell you! Tongtong, I'm talking to you about the manager of a fruit store, are you interested in this position?"

"Fruit shop...... The store manager?"

"Yes, you heard it right, it's the manager of the fruit store, and I told you, the treatment of this fruit shop is so good that it explodes, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to find a job with this kind of treatment in the entire Gui Province, I don't know if you are interested?"

"Sasha, I found that I haven't seen you for two years, and your level of speech has risen, and the position of the manager of a fruit store is going to blow you to the sky!"

"Tongtong, this is really not what I bragged, the basic salary is 10,000 + sales commission + year-end bonus + staff dormitory, do you say you are interested?"

"Cut, come to me again to be happy, you are still living in the ivory tower when you are an old lady and don't understand anything, you have to be reliable when you tell lies, who will believe such outrageous words!"

"Hey, no wonder you don't believe it, in fact, if I hadn't seen the job advertisement in the fruit store with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it was true!"

Hearing this, Huang Tongtong frowned and said, "Sasha, is it true or fake? I'm really unemployed now, don't make fun of me with my job!"

"It should be true, I'm at the door of that fruit shop now, and the LED scrolling screen on it clearly writes the benefits of the fruit store manager and employees, and there will be no fake!"

"What kind of fruit store is so good? This is Gui Province, even if it is a provincial capital, it is only a second-tier city, recruiting a store manager, and actually offering a basic salary of 10,000+ and such good benefits, this is incredible, right?"

"Who says it's not, I remember reading a statistic before, the salary in the provincial capital of our Guizhou Province accounts for more than 40 percent of the range of 2,000 to 3,000, and the monthly salary of more than 10,000 yuan only accounts for a few 2.0 percent. For more high-end businesses such as watch stores and jewelry stores, many store managers' basic salary plus commission income has not exceeded 10,000 yuan!"

"Since the treatment is so good, what are you talking to me, why don't you apply for the job yourself, it is more than enough to be a fruit store manager with your work ability. ”

"You think I don't want to, but it's a pity that I don't meet the recruitment requirements of other fruit stores!"

"What requirements do you not meet? Could it be that the manager of this fruit shop still requires to be single?"

"If it's such a request, it's good.,It's a big deal to kick my family away.,It's a pity that people's fruit stores are asking for high-value beauties.,The owner of the fruit shop on this dog's day is a beauty control (#--)"

“(⊙ｏ⊙)”

"Tongtong, to be honest, I really envy you beautiful women with good looks. When I was in school, there were countless male classmates competing for hospitality, and when I went out of society to participate in work, major companies wanted to enter. Unlike ordinary people like us, it is extremely difficult to find a satisfactory job, and it is really different from others!"

"Sasha, you envy me and I still envy you, since you graduated from school and joined the work, you have been steady, and in a few years you have become a small supervisor of the department, and you have a bumper harvest in career and love. As for me, I have changed my job 18 times, and even 6 cities, and I am still single, so I am really fed up with this life!"

"Stop, let's not complain first, you can hurry up and come over for the interview!"

"I'm not going, am I? It's a position that requires appearance, and I'm tired of this kind of work!"

"Don't, Tongtong, the nature of the work in this fruit shop must be different from your previous jobs, and the high-value beauties required by the boss may have something to do with the positioning of his fruit shop, just like a flight attendant.

Not to mention anything else, just talking about the decoration of this fruit shop, although it has not yet been completely completed, it can already be seen that this is definitely a very high-end atmosphere and high-grade fruit shop, anyway, I have never seen the decoration of the fruit store so luxurious!

Besides, such a job with good benefits must be unique in our Guizhou Province, and wouldn't it be too stupid to give up such a good opportunity because of some concerns that don't necessarily exist?"

When Huang Tongtong heard this, his heart moved slightly, and he felt that he should not give up such a good opportunity, so he hesitated for a moment and said: "Okay, you have a point, then I'll take a car over later!"

"That's right, then we won't say more, you hurry up and come by car, and I'll send you the location later!"

"Okay, see you later!"
