The old man drank the head of Wanda Faucet and left early the next morning, Fang Zi'an originally wanted Chunni to accompany them to visit the capital and go to the West Lake to have a fun. But the two old men refused. After going to the manufacturing site yesterday, and when Fang Zi'an was drinking at night, he explained to them the principle of the machine and the use of the machine after it was manufactured, Liu Lao put his head and Wan Da Faucet from his heart to Fang Zi'an.

Before, whether it was Liu Lao Tou or Wan Dahai, they only regarded Fang Zi'an as a young man with a very good spleen and stomach. From Fang Zi'an's body, I can't find the kind of superiority over the people at the bottom. He is sincere and benevolent, bold and daring, and is a very good young man. In the eyes of the two old men, it was like making a young but very speculative friend.

But now, Liu Lao and Wan Da Faucet have another layer of understanding about Fang Zi'an. You could say he's whimsical and unrealistic, but it's inconceivable to think that the kind of machine he's talking about could actually be made. It's hard to imagine what it would be like for a big ship to be driven by the wind, not to be powered by manpower or animals, but to be propelled by that machine. From then on, it was still used to go to sea anytime and anywhere because of the monsoons, and to go anywhere you wanted. And Fang Zi'an said with certainty that the speed is definitely faster than the current speed of the ship.

The two old men couldn't sleep for a long time when they were resting in the guest room at night, and both of them believed that Fang Zi'an was by no means an ordinary person. Whether he succeeds or not, he has such an idea, and dares to implement it with great fanfare, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people. The height of this young man is something to look up to. Therefore, it is not appropriate to disturb him to do these big things. The two left early the next morning, deciding to wait quietly for news from Fang Zi'an, and did not have to rush to the sea again.

And the two of them also received the task given by Fang Zi'an last night, which is to reasonably plan the structure of the big ship. Because the structure of a large ship is very particular, the internal structure cannot be changed at will, otherwise it will affect the balance and solidity. According to Fang Zi'an, it is not only necessary to install machinery and what kind of propeller at the stern. There is even a chimney above the deck, which will cause a major change in the overall layout of the ship, which must be studied and planned in advance. This task can only be undertaken by Liu Laotou and Wan Dalongtou, two veterans who have rich experience in shipbuilding and ship repair, and who actually operate ships.

After Fang Zi'an ordered someone to prepare a car to send the two old people away, he cleaned up and went out. Today is the day when the new science and technology is conferred, and a few days ago, I got a notice from the imperial court, which is a big day.

The west side of the main gate of Li is the place where the important official offices of the Great Song Dynasty are concentrated, and the political hall and its subordinate offices are all located here. When Fang Zi'an arrived, there were already a lot of new science and technology scholars, and groups of whispers were talking in low voices.

Zhao Changlin came early, and when he saw Fang Zi'an arriving, he hurriedly came forward to salute. The two walked to a corner of the venue and whispered, and from time to time someone came over to salute Fang Zi'an. Fang Zi'an is a new science detective, and naturally he also has a lot of status in the hearts of some people. In addition, Fang Zi'an has a slight name, so he naturally came to get acquainted.

Not long after, a large group of people came in Hula at the gate of the palace, and it was more than a dozen new science and technology scholars who came around Qin Tan. Qin Tan strode with his head held high, and he spoke loudly in his mouth, looking extremely excited. Seeing Qin Tan's arrival, more new science and technology scholars stepped forward to salute. Everyone knows Qin Tan's identity, and if he doesn't bother him at this moment, he will wait for a while. Fang Zi'an

Seeing a person standing alone in a far corner with his hands in his hands, without even turning his head to look at Qin Tan, it seemed very abrupt. That person is Zhang Xiaoxiang, the champion of the new department.

"Look at those people, they are worthy of being scholars. That's where the sycophants begin. The image of flattery, disgusting. Zhao Changlin, who was beside him, said in a low voice.

Fang Zi'an smiled and said, "Brother Changlin, human nature, why bother." Who doesn't want to pursue the advantages and avoid the disadvantages. Those people just wanted to tie up with Qin Hui. Let them be. ”

Zhao Changlin nodded and said, "I just can't get used to it." Brother Zi'an, do you have any exact whereabouts for this award?"

Fang Zi'an shook his head and said, "I didn't even think about this, just let the appointment be." ”

"I guess you're going to Hanlin Academy. After all, Master Shi is a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. Moreover, according to the rules, the first and third students are to stay in Beijing and enter the key departments. Brother Zi'an is going to enter the Hanlin Academy as an editor. The future is bright. But I'm afraid I'm going to be released. Well, I'm afraid you and I won't be able to see each other often soon. Zhao Changlin said.

Fang Zi'an knew that Zhao Changlin was in the second grade, and although he could be awarded an official immediately, he was afraid that he could only be sent to the prefecture and county outside Beijing as an official. At the moment, he comforted, "Brother Changlin, it's the same everywhere, and it's not bad to be a county order." Aren't you dreaming of leveling the land so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, so that you can realize your ideals? ”

Zhao Changlin said softly: "I do have such a wish, but in that case, I can't stay in the capital and fight against the old thief side by side with you." If you stay in the capital as an official, the pressure will be very great. Didn't I break my promise when I swore to be with you?"

Fang Zi'an smiled and said, "Brother Changlin, don't think so, as the so-called different paths lead to the same end, the one you can govern is peaceful, and that is also to contribute to the Great Song Dynasty." Isn't our purpose all for the sake of the people of the Great Song River, Qinghai Yan, don't you have to worry about this. Besides, who can say for sure what will happen in the future, maybe you will be promoted and transferred to the capital as an official soon. ”

Zhao Changlin thought about it, nodded and said, "That's what I said." It's that I'm short-sighted. ”

Fang Zi'an patted him on the shoulder, and when he was about to speak, he saw an official come out of the gate of the political affairs hall, and shouted loudly, "Please wait for the new branch jinshi to enter the political affairs hall, and the governor Wan Qi is about to confer officials on behalf of the imperial court." ”

When they heard this, they hurriedly stopped talking, straightened their clothes, and followed the official up the high staircase, and crossed the high threshold into the front yard of the spacious government hall. At the foot of the steps in front of the official hall, the official asked everyone to stand in order of first and second class. Fang Zi'an, Zhang Xiaoxiang, and Qin Tan stood at the forefront of the stairs and waited.

"Lord Wan Qi is here," shouted the little official at the door of the hall.

Everyone was busy looking at each other, and saw Wan Qiaoyu walking out of the door of the hall with the holy decree in his hand, standing on the steps.

"In the twenty-second year of Shaoxing, the first and second class Jinshi students received the order." Wan Qiyun preached loudly.

Everyone knelt down and shouted "Wait for the order"

"The list of 192 new officers to be conferred official positions has been personally decided, and the head of the Ministry of Officials is now the director of the Ministry of Officials. From now on, you will be an official of the imperial court, when you are honest and clear, dedicated to the public, and govern government affairs for the imperial court, you should be cautious, and you should introspect yourself. Chin this"

"Emperor Xie, long live, long live, long live," the crowd shouted.

Wan Qian accepted the holy decree and said with a smile, "Everyone, please get up." This official is a member of the political affairs hall and the head of the ministry. Therefore, the matter of conferring an official is the authority of the official

things within. You have also heard the decree. You must understand that the official positions of all the personnel who were awarded this time were approved by the emperor himself, and were not determined by the political affairs hall himself. The principle of the government hall is to follow the established rules of the imperial court and the lack of each yamen and state capital, and in addition, a survey of your previous conduct has also been made, which is also one of the considerations. In short, in line with the principle of fairness and justice and the rules of the imperial court. Therefore, you must not have any doubts or complaints. You are already an official, different from the scattered people in the past, and you should abide by the rules of the court. Failure to do so is punishable. ”

Everyone arched their hands and said, "Don't dare, don't dare." ”

Wan Qiyu nodded and said with a smile: "Then this official will announce your official positions on behalf of the emperor and the imperial court." From the first class onwards, they will be awarded in order of ranking. Zhang Xiaoxiang, the first champion of the first class, was awarded the post of editor of the Hanlin Academy from now on. Master Zhang, congratulations, the future is limitless. ”

The crowd was buzzing, but they weren't surprised at all. It is a matter of course that the champion will enter the Hanlin Academy. In addition to envy, I am also very jealous. As Wan Qiyu said, the Hanlin Academy has a bright future for the compilation and revision of important officials.

Zhang Xiaoxiang stepped forward and saluted to thank him, took the appointment document and official uniform and hat, and stood aside expressionlessly.

"Qin Tan, the second place in the first class, was awarded to the Privy Council in Beijing, acting as the director, with seven grades, and the functions and powers were customized according to the imperial court. Lord Qin, congratulations, you are young and take on heavy responsibilities, and your future is promising. Wan Qiduo said with a smile.

Qin Tan stepped forward and laughed loudly, "Thank you for the trust of the imperial court, thank you Lord Wan Qi." ”

The crowd was full of congratulations, and they were also surprised. The Privy Council has twelve rooms, and the heads of the twelve rooms are all in charge of each of them, which is an extremely important official position. In Beijing, it is one of the most important rooms. It is unbelievable that a new science and technology scholar actually became the head directly. Although a code word was added. But in fact, it is just a cover to avoid being discussed. Of course, surprise is surprise, but everyone knows what kind of person Qin Tan is, and it is not surprising that he was awarded such an important position.

"Thank you, thank you, hahaha." Qin Tan smiled and bowed his hand, took the appointment document and official robe and hat, and did not hide the smile on his face.

"The third place in the first class is Fang Zi'an. Granted" Wan Qiao's voice sounded again, and everyone hurriedly stopped talking and listened quietly. It seems that the top three officials this year are all enviable, and Tanhualang is afraid that he will also hold important positions in the key yamen.

"Conferring the post of Commander of the Defense Army"

"What"

"How is that possible?"

"Isn't that bullying?"

"Hey, that's too miserable. Tanhualang awarded the commander of the defense army in the capital, which is ridiculously dead. ”

The crowd was shocked, mixed with whispers and laughter.

"Quiet, quiet," Wan Qian shouted. Everyone quickly shut up. Wan Qiyu repeated: "Grant Fang Zi the post of commander of the defense army of Anjing City, and the quality is seven products, and the rights and responsibilities of Yulu are customized according to the imperial court." That, Fang Zi'an, congratulations. In recent years, the fire in the capital has been serious and the losses have been huge, and the emperor is very concerned about this matter. When you go to serve in the defense army, you should share the worries of the emperor and reverse the serious situation of the fire in the capital, you have a great responsibility, and the future is bright. ”

Wan Qian looked at Fang Zi'an's face with a smile, and Fang Zi'an's face was embarrassed and gloomy. He instantly understood in his heart that he had been calculated by someone in the open.
