The reason why Huang Qiong wants to reach out and meddle in matters is very simple, in terms of the treatment of scholars, it can be called the most generous dynasty in all dynasties, and it is really unbelievable that there can be a person who sells himself to bury his father. It's not that scholars can't sell themselves, he's just a little curious.

Since Taizu set the world in this dynasty, in order to appease the hearts of scholars all over the world, in fact, it is to buy people's hearts. In addition to formulating a series of rules and regulations in the official system to ensure the promotion channels of scholars, detailed regulations have also been made on the treatment of scholars who have failed to achieve fame

After passing the government examination, the scholar was given the status of Xiucai. The county where they are located will give rice a stone and money every month to ensure that these talents can study with peace of mind and do not have to think about supporting their families. If Xiucai participates in the next township examination and the general examination, the travel expenses and all the accommodation expenses during the examination will also be paid by the county.

Even if the candidates for the township examination and the general examination do not pass the examination, there is no need to worry about the round-trip fare. What's more, even if you don't pass the township exam, as long as you have enough grades, you can enter a school with free tuition and a certain amount of living expenses to continue your studies. After three years, if you pass a certain exam, you can directly enter Guozijian to study.

After three years of study in Guozijian, as long as you pass the examination, you can directly take the entrance examination in the capital. Of course, if you don't pass the three township exams, you can't take the exam again, and you can't go to school in the palace and Guozijian. Even if it is not good, you can go to that big family and make a western seat, and there are not a few bundles of cultivation you get every year.

is also a Xixi, and the treatment of Xiucai in the examination is much higher than that of Tongsheng who does not have Xiucai in the examination. According to the general market price, it is certain that the annual system of thirty yuan plus five stone of grain is certain. With this money and food, it is not a problem to feed the family. Although it is not enough to compare with the above, it is certainly more than the bottom. If you enter the ethnology of a large family, the treatment is not even less than that of being a seven-grade county.

In the Great Qi Dynasty, it is certainly impossible to say that there are no poor scholars. After all, ordinary scholars, even if they are admitted to Xiucai, except for those who have fields or business at home, the consistent money and a stone of rice can barely maintain food and clothing for a family of five. If there are a large number of people in the house to eat, it is basically not enough.

Therefore, there are still poor readers, but there are basically no scholars who can't even eat. And as long as you are qualified in the examination, you don't have to pay taxes, let alone serve forced labor. It can be said that as long as you pass the Xiucai examination, the court will basically raise you. Although you can't get rich and expensive, it's basically okay to eat and wear without worrying.

What's more, if you haven't passed the township exam several times, and you don't want to take the exam again, you can enter the state and county to become a clerk. Although there is no rank for the officials, they have an establishment and a salary in the court. Moreover, after serving as an official for three years, you can be elected as an official Jiupin official after passing the examination. Ordinary Xiucai wants to say that they are poor, but there are basically no people who are so miserable.

And this guy who sold himself to bury his father is not only wearing the clothes of a showman, but the clothes that can only be worn by a person. In this dynasty, the people already have the capital to be officials, although according to the official system, they cannot be appointed as official officials. Not to mention that you can't enter the Hanlin Academy, Zhongshu Province, Shangshu Province, Yushitai and other directly subordinate yamen.

However, if you can't take the test three times, if you don't want to take the test again. You can be selected by the Ministry of Officials, and you can be a county magistrate, a lord, a teacher, or an eight- or nine-grade official in each palace. If you do well, you can also be transferred to the palm seal officer, go to that county to be a magistrate, or go up to the prefecture to become a professor or an official such as a scholar.

The only difference between the officials selected by the people is that the local officials are the official seals, and at most they can only be known and judged by the government, and generally at the level of the governor and the prefecture will come to an end. can only be rotated around in the office of a magistrate, and the best thing is to enter the various pacification divisions as a subordinate official who participates in politics. If you want to enter the central yamen, there is basically no such possibility.

Not to mention that it is impossible to enter the top yamen such as Zhongshu Province and Shangshu Province, or the administrative organs such as the Six Ministries. The Beijing officials elected by the election were in Sinong Temple, Honglu Temple, Taifu Temple, Taichang Temple, and Guanglu Temple, and these Lengshui Yamen were outsiders. The best thing is to go to Dali Temple and be a Tui Cheng from the seven products.

And those who lift people, even if they don't pass the Jinshi. I don't want to be one of those so-called miscellaneous officers, and my head is to continue to study in order to continue to take the exam. As long as the age is not more than thirty-five, according to the customized meeting of the test landing people, they can directly enter the Guozijian to study. After entering the Guozijian, not only is the tuition fee free, but the imperial court also gives two yuan every month.

It is precisely because this dynasty has such a good treatment for scholars. Huang Qiong was a little confused, how did this guy in front of him get to this point. Even if you fail to try again, you won't get mixed up to the point of selling yourself to bury your father. It is precisely because of this that Huang Qiong's interest was attracted.

You must know that once you become a slave, all your fame will be canceled. That is to say, no matter how many times you take the exam, you will get the talent or fame of others, as long as you sell yourself, everything will come to naught, and it will be impossible to take any fame in the examination in the future, and even three generations will not be allowed to participate in the imperial examination.

Except for those old boys who have repeatedly failed to pass the test and have not even been admitted to the show. The average scholar would rather starve his family than sell himself into slavery. Of course, the family that buys slaves generally buys slaves to work when they go back. These scholars, who are not diligent in their limbs and do not distinguish between grains and grains, will not be bought even if they only sell themselves.

Therefore, seeing a person who wants to sell himself aroused Huang Qiong's great interest. Of course, what attracted Huang Qiong more was not only the reason why he sold himself to bury his father. There is also a sense of arrogance on this guy's face, and the three non-selling principles written on the banner behind him that is side by side with the banner that sold him to bury his father.

Huang Qiong ignored this guy who sold himself, was quite ugly, not to mention, and had arrogant nostrils. walked behind him, and looked at his three-no-sale principle in a good manner. However, when she saw this guy's words, Rao is Huang Qiong couldn't help but secretly praise in her heart: "What a bell-style character." ”

However, when looking at the specific content of these three not selling, Huang Qiong has a feeling of ridicule. And Li Hai, who was accompanying him next to him, couldn't help but laugh a little when he saw these three not for sale. Just because of this guy's three-no-sell principle, as well as his very scary appearance, coupled with the attitude of bull coaxing, it is strange that this guy can sell himself.

Huang Qiong picked up the three-no-sell banner written by this guy, walked up to him and said, "You wrote this banner?" But from the point of view of this hand bell font, it is indeed quite good, and it can be regarded as a certain skill. However, as a lifter, to the point of selling yourself, it can be seen that you don't read this book very well. ”

This ugly and somewhat scary guy, after hearing Huang Qiong's words, rolled his eyes and said, "What's wrong?" Did Lao Tzu write it, what's your business? How well Lao Tzu reads, it's not your turn to evaluate it. If you pay the money and let Lao Tzu bury that old guy, Lao Tzu will be your person. Can't afford to pay, drop things down and get out. ”

After holding down and hearing the words of this guy who has no temperament to read, a mouthful of an old man, a stinky guy with a mouth that can smoke people to death, and a mouth full of firewood, he was furious and wanted to teach this arrogant guy a lesson. Huang Qiongcai smiled, glanced at him with a trace of contempt, and then said, "How do you know that I can't afford you?" ”

"But I want to ask you, what can I do when I buy you back? Can you do laundry and cook, or can you plow the fields and collect firewood? Useless is a scholar, what else would you do besides reading? You are a scholar, I am also a scholar, and I will be the one who will. In addition to being able to write two strokes, do you give me another reason to buy you? ”

This scholar heard that Huang Qiong was a little interested in buying himself, so he finally straightened his head and glanced at Huang Qiong with a serious eye before saying, "Who are you kid?" I can tell you, even if you have money, that's your business. If you violate my rule of three don't sell, even if you can accept my reason, Lao Tzu will not like you. ”

"You don't care who I am. You can rest assured, I am not the son of an official eunuch, and I do not have a beautiful lady in my family, let alone an illiterate landlord. It's just that the family has a little asset, enough to support an idler. Hearing this guy's question, Huang Qiong smiled and shook his three-no-sale banner.

It's no wonder that Huang Qiong had the urge to laugh out loud after seeing this guy's three-don't sell banner. Even Li Hai, who has always behaved in front of Huang Qiong and behaves in a proper manner, didn't care about whether he would be rude in front of his master, and covered his mouth to steal fun there. It's really this guy's three don't sell, it's too funny.

This guy's writing does not sell official eunuchs, second, there are unmarried ladies among the sellers, and third, he does not sell the rich man who doesn't know how to read. This guy himself is very sorry for the audience, plus his three harsh conditions, who can buy him? Can't a farmer have nothing to do when he is full, and buy him back to an ancestor who can't even use a hoe?

And this first one is not for sale and the third one is not for sale, Huang Qiong can still understand. After all, the officials of this dynasty, especially the high-ranking officials, were all born in the imperial examination. He pays attention to the scholarly family, and no one pays attention to him when he goes, but he can only be humiliated. Moreover, these scholars can't eat even if they are poor, and they look down on illiterate people. As the saying goes, there is a great deal of Confucianism in talking and laughing, and there is no white ding.

But this second one, Huang Qiong is difficult to understand. Even if this person is talented, he can look at his eyes the size of mung beans, a garlic nose that is a little incongruous with his whole face, and an oversized mouth and a pair of attractive ears, which can make children cry. Whose daughter has to be worried about marrying before she falls in love with him to become a son-in-law?

Huang Qiong was looking at him, and the person in front of him was also looking at Huang Qiong. After looking at it for a long time, he said in an arrogant tone: "I don't dare to say that I am rich in five cars, but the Ming Sutra, the Ming Calculation, and the Hundred Schools of Thought are also proficient." I also know a little about other astronomy, geography, and the art of war. Although he didn't dare to compare with Zhuge Wuhou back then, he thought that he didn't lose too much to him. ”

Regarding this guy's unashamed answer, Huang Qiong only smiled faintly: "Whether it works or not, it's not just a matter of talking." Anyone can brag, but how much real material is in the stomach, you can only taste it. In this way, I will compare you with you, and if you pass my examination, I will not only buy you, but also bury your father in a grand manner. ”

"But if you can't pass my exam, you can sell yourself here. I raise everyone in my house, but I don't raise waste materials. Show me your real skills and let me see what you're worth. After saying that, Huang Qiong pointed to a teahouse across the street, and walked over first.
