Sima Guang thinks that what the two children can say is too vain, and useful things are not said with the mouth, you have to go through practice, and the two children who have not experienced the cruelty of officialdom think everything is too simple.

"How do you judge the test papers?"

Zhang Dian said: "You see that there are scores at the back of each question, as long as you can reach 60 points, even if you pass, in Tsinghua University, everything is fair, no discrimination, no discrimination, whether you are a wealthy family or a poor family, you are treated equally." ”

Sima Guang nodded, but he didn't think so in his heart, what is absolutely fair in this world, the children of the rich are well-informed, read a lot of books, and it is difficult for the poor to buy paper and pencils, first of all, the starting point is not fair, he thinks that the gap will get bigger and bigger, which also explains why the scholars occupy the direction of this country.

"Then how do you charge fees here, can the children of the poor family pay the tuition?"

Zhang Dian said with a smile: "The tuition fee is the same for everyone, and students who can't afford it can choose to work in the school, of course, these jobs are not for them to do coolies, they are all related to reading, such as making accounts for the family, copying books, etc., and many villagers in the neighborhood are also willing to hire them." ”

Sima Guang asked curiously, "What did the villagers hire them for?" Is there anything else to do besides farming? ”

"My lord, don't underestimate the villagers near Zhuangzi, do you know that there used to be a family of Lu here, and now do you know how many families there are? More than 500 households, they all came to work in the Zhuangzi, and then did some small business.

The money on the Zhuangzi is basically made by them, you look at their shabby clothes, but many people can come up with tens of thousands of dollars, they are illiterate when dealing with Zhuangzi, and they can't settle accounts, but these students will! This is also the reason why Zhuangzi can attract so many students. ”

Sima Guang This is the second time he has been appointed abroad, and the first time is when he was the county magistrate, at that time, there were only a handful of people in a county who could come up with 10,000 yuan, and a lot of family property does not mean that you can come up with such cash, if Zhang Dian did not tell a lie, then this matter is worth discussing.

"Is there a lot of work in Zhuangzi? It takes so many people to do it? ”

Huzi said: "The main thing is that there are several workshops in Zhuangzi, which require a large number of people, and there is no shortage of people in Zhuangzi himself." ”

Sima Guang said: "Can I go and see your workshop?" ”

"I can't make decisions about this, I have to ask the head of the family."

Sima Guang said: "Your family master should be in Liao at this time!" Who is the person in charge of the Zhuangzi? ”

Huzi replied: "It's Mr. Shao"

Sima Guang still decided to give up and not look at it, this Zhuangzi is a bit evil, he actually saw the forbidden army and an acquaintance in the court, he had to go back to find someone to understand it well before making plans, recklessness is not his style.

Shao Yong and Lu Li sat in the courtyard drinking tea, Huzi said Sima Guang's words in a colorful voice, Shao Yong said with a smile: "I don't know the world, the people used by the imperial court over the years have become more and more wine bags and rice bags, Junshi is okay with learning, and the ruling party is obviously flawed." ”

Lu Li said: "I'm still afraid that he will force him to see it, after all, he is the boss of Luoyang." ”

"Needless to say, those who are guarded by the forbidden army, the one in our house is not worth a lot, what if he sees it leaked, he doesn't have any brains to stay behind, not only our family, you go to someone else's house, who will let you enter the workshop, such a simple reason can't be figured out." Shao Yong said with emotion.

Lu Li said: "It's not a way to go on like this, the workshop and Zhuangzi are too close, as long as there are officials who inspect it, they can see it." ”

Shao Yong said: "This matter has been put on the agenda, I have also discussed it with Hanzhang before, I think this time I will be ruthless, all move out, and the workshop has also affected the expansion of learning." This is his heart, and as for how much money the workshop can make, he doesn't care at all.

"I don't understand, you can just get it, if you need my help, just call me."

Shao Yong said to Huzi: "Go and call me those fat shopkeepers, my brain is full of copper stench, and I won't think about my family from the overall situation." ”

Huzi held back a smile and went to call someone, this Mr. Shao occasionally listened to cute, and when he got mad, some foul words came out of his mouth from time to time, compared with three years ago, it was like two people.

In the examination room, some candidates were dissatisfied with the exam questions and scolded: "What are you taking the test, the relationship between the Jinshi and how much grain is gross on an acre of land, and this question, how to be a good county magistrate, I haven't been a official yet?" How will you know how to do it. ”

Liu Chu frowned and said: "There are more than 60 candidates who came to Zhuangzi to participate today, and you are the only one who is complaining here, didn't you read the notice outside before you entered the examination room?" No one here is begging you to come, they are all voluntary, if you don't want to take the exam, you can put down the paper and just leave, grandstanding people are not welcome here, understand? ”

"Let's go, who is rare in your place, where do people like me go, don't they rush to be wanted."

Mei Yaochen, who was sitting at the top, said: "The full bottle does not sound, half a bottle is swaying, even if you are a character like you, you can't benefit the people even if you are admitted to the Jinshi, you are three years old, and you are a corrupt official." ”

Liu took away the test paper of the last candidate, looked at all the candidates and said: "I know that many of you have the same idea as the person just now, but your cultivation is good, and you insist on finishing the test paper. ”

"It's not that we doubt Mr.'s knowledge, but the things on this test paper are too out-of-the-way, we haven't been exposed to many things, and the things about arithmetic in it occupy a bit of a large space."

"Anything else?" Zhang asked with a smile.

"There are also many problems in agriculture and people's livelihood."

"If there is a problem, just say it, and we don't want people to talk."

"The test papers of several gentlemen are based on reality, but Mr. has thought about it, if you want to do those things on the test papers, the premise is that you can be admitted to the Jinshi, and Enmeng is also aimed at those who are officials in the family, and no matter how good they are, they are just a pie on paper, and the best result is to be a lifelong staff member for those high-ranking officials and nobles."

Mei Yaochen applauded his words, and said to the candidate with a smile: "You are very right, and you are very thoughtful, the purpose of this test paper is to touch your bottom, don't you find that the traditional questions and practical questions on the paper account for half of each?" The children of the poor family will definitely be able to answer the questions about farming, and those who are familiar with the scriptures and history will definitely be able to answer the questions about policy.

As long as the people who do it seriously, I think they can answer sixty points, and we are not aimless, and then talk about this question of whether it is a jinshi or not, I will say this to you! As long as you enter Tsinghua University, we can guarantee that more than 60% of people will pass the exam, I don't know if you are satisfied with this answer. ”

Sixty percent is not a small number, if it weren't for the top six of Bingchen here, these students would think that Mei Yaochen was talking big, and one student said: "What guarantee do you take?"

Zhang Dian said: "Some things are boring if you say too much, since Mr. Shengyu dares to say it to you, it is to take the reputation of his life, or that sentence, everything here is voluntary, and the choice is in your own hands." ”

After reading the papers, Liu read out the names of the students who passed the exam on the spot, forty-five people, there are already a lot, and five students still chose to quit, they think that those famous Confucians are the best choice, they will only mislead people here, there will be no future, 60% is just a gimmick.

Looking at these forty-five people, Mei Yaochen said: "Congratulations, one day you will applaud your decision, now put all your packages at the door, and Zihou will take you to visit the place where you will live in the next three years." ”

The chattering students burst into huge cheers the moment they saw the classroom and the library, all of which were unimaginable to them before, how could there be such a good classroom, the happiest children were the four-story library, from the window, the room was full of piles, and they couldn't understand how there could be so many books in the world.

"Sir, you mean that we can read these books at any time in the future."

Zhang Dian said: "What do you say? Otherwise, what else is he doing with him, the one you haven't seen who once said that he wants to build the world's largest library, and he is very dissatisfied with this book? ”

"How many books are there! Sir"

"Hundreds of thousands of copies! Do you see the house next door? It's also a place where books are kept, and now it's being renovated, and you can read books in there when it's renovated. ”

This happiness came too suddenly, and the few students who stayed behind were thinking about whether they would regret seeing these things.

Zhao Zhen in the palace is proud! The matter of the two Zhejiang finally had a result, Zhang Fangping took out the evidence to lay the victory in one fell swoop, and the rest of the things were not technical, this time the courtiers realized that the tiger had been pretending to be asleep, Zhao Zhen liked this feeling very much, especially when he was in the court, no one dared to shout at him.

"Your Majesty, this is an urgent report from Wangbei and waiting for the fast horse." Shangguan Wen said.

"You old dog, can't you let me get some rest?" Zhao Zhen was very dissatisfied with Shangguan Wen interrupting him.

However, he still took over the fold, in Shangguan Wen's opinion, the emperor's face was like a colorful board, a color for a while, and he was a little curious about what was written in the fold of Wangbeihou, which would make the emperor's face change like this.

"What a whimsical boy this kid is! He has seen my lifeline, and this twist and turn has made the courtiers see that it is not fried, but how can I believe his analysis? ”
