Xia Yunyi followed behind a few people who seemed to be fellow villagers, and several of them seemed to be chattering, because it seemed to be Huguang dialect, so they couldn't understand it, and they could barely hear it clearly: "Second brother, in this public examination, the biggest grasp is you, you go in, you have to take care of our brother." ”

"That is, the doorway of this public examination, I also touched the eight or nine not far from ten, compared with the imperial examination of the Ming Dynasty, it is much more complicated, but everything is unchanged, it is a practice, I applied for three cram schools, and I have figured out all the things inside."

"The questions in it are actually not difficult, but the time is too short, only an hour, how harsh the elders are, too eager for quick success, if you can be a little more elegant, just like the previous Ming, a test for several days, wouldn't it be beautiful."

"Wouldn't it be better to find a beautiful girl for you to serve tea and water on the side."

"Haha."

Xia Yunyi looked at his son beside him, but he also had his own thoughts in his heart, his career heart has weakened a lot after years of stumbling and getting used to the filthy officialdom, although he still does not approve of the domestic and foreign policies of the Presbyterian Council, but he also sees clearly the fact that only the imperial capital can rule China.

He understood this point, the imperial capital did not want to take the land in the south of the Yangtze River, but preferred to wait until the melons were ripe and the people's hearts were attached, and then they could easily take it.

And his friends who do business in Shanghai, as well as former tenants, have said that they have asked them to publicize their good life under the rule of the Presbyterian Church, and are even willing to give some small gifts for this purpose.

However, seeing this, Xia Yunyi was much calmer, he did not approve of many policies in the imperial capital on shaving hair and culture, but after discovering that the imperial capital had set aside a channel for people to enter its civil service system, and it was very formal, although many people cried more than once, but they understood that there were some people.

The kings of all dynasties are actually very particular about all this, and they always have to carry out reforms, in line with their own wishes, such as the first year of the republic, although he is just a man, go back to check this allusion, when he is really shocked into a cold sweat, those rotten Confucians can say with a conscience that they are the destroyers of China, but the name of this country is really good, and the good ones have been ruled by three generations.

Moreover, a careful study of the national policies of the elders, even closer to the taste of antiquity, at least the appearance of oracle bone inscriptions has also attracted the attention of many cultural people.

When I returned to the rented hotel, there were all kinds of people around, so I didn't plan to make friends or anything, but I studied the civil service exam of the Presbyterian Church with my son.

The system of the civil service examination in the seventh year of the republic has been quite perfect, and the requirements for the diversion and recruitment of various positions, as well as the connection between the content of the examination and the world, have been refined to the extreme, and even the scope of the examination has begun to be locked.

There is no endorsement, and the test and argument are still an examination that mainly assesses comprehensive ability, which has begun to spread as the content of the test gradually shifts to overseas work.

This small public examination book has actually become a baton, and it is also a reader near the north, or a wealthy family, who was originally a mud-legged family, began to ask their children to read more books for the civil service examination.

If this kind of exam is really released, especially after the third exam, I'm afraid that thousands of people will crowd in?

Fortunately, the Presbyterian Church came up with an idea, and only those who have completed their basic studies in the Presbyterian Church school and obtained graduation certificates at all levels can be regarded as real basic talents.

This is the same as in later generations, when only college graduates were allowed to take the exam, which was a threshold control.

In the past six years, the Southern Ming Dynasty court and government are in a mess, the presbyterian council is not idle, after basically stabilizing the north, locking a few gold mines, and promoting high-yield seeds, they have been greatly supplemented in terms of financial resources and food, plus the real culprit of the famine, those hoarding businessmen, have made fertilizer, although the per capita ration in the north is not as good as China in the 21st century, but it is definitely stronger than India in the 21st century.

What's more, the presbyterian church is more often inclined to use the means of cash-for-work, relying on the start of construction projects to send money and grain to the people, so the economic recovery speed of the north is always stronger than that of the south.

In fact, the Red Army was far inferior to the Party in terms of population and economic strength under its control, almost a fraction of its own, but the Red Army got rid of the landlords, the peasants paid taxes directly to the Red Army, and there were no middlemen to make the difference.

The credit of the middle landlords is indispensable.

Of course, for the construction of people's livelihood, the main axis of the presbyterian church is still to change customs, and it is fundamental for people to see the benefits first.

In the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, there was a bad government, but it indirectly led to the gradual weakening of Chinese culture.

In the era of the Han and Tang dynasties, even if there were thousands of bad things, it ensured that the daughter also enjoyed the inheritance right of her parents' property, even if it was unevenly divided, there were still things, and it was demarcated by legal means.

And to the cheers of countless Confucians, the Great Yuan invaded China and brought barbaric grassland laws into China, among which, many ancient traditions that later generations took for granted were actually very barbaric.

For example, when you have to kneel to fight a lawsuit, and in my Great Song Dynasty and even before my Great Song Dynasty, it is correct to see officials who do not have to kneel, and in front of the emperor, ministers can often stand or have seats, which is also human nature, and it does not have to be like in the Qing Dynasty, everyone pursued kneeling.

Kneeling and spanking are one of them, and there are many evil policies, which were also brought by Dayuan from the grassland, but after being accepted by Zhu Yuanzhang, they continued to the future.

One of these evils is the disenfranchisement of women.

The so-called parents are the first teachers of their children, and women who do not have their own property, even if they are married, if they have no right to speak in their husband's family and lose their children's education, they are often inferior to the next generation.

For example, back then, the Jin soldiers captured our capital, and the traitor Qin Hui and his wife were captured by the Jin soldiers and returned together. On the way back to the Great Song Dynasty, Qin Hui wanted to get rid of his wife, but his wife was angry, pointed at his nose and said: "I married into your Qin family, but the Ming media is marrying, and the dowry alone is worth 200,000 yuan, what is there to be sorry for you?" Now you are a broken prisoner, and you want to throw me in the middle of the road, touch your conscience, are you a dog to eat! ”

This is where the bull's anger lies, and it is also where the benefits lie, even if the poor can inherit not much family wealth, but at least there are some, mothers can use this money to educate their children, improve the quality of the people, it is better than the money is spent.

Changing customs is always extremely difficult.

The Council of Elders established effective control, urging and helping the displaced people to resume agricultural production as quickly as possible, preparing to emigrate overseas, the year before my Ming Dynasty, the reason why there was famine everywhere, although there are certain natural disasters, but the main reason is because of the unstable situation, the government is too strong for the common people, so that the people would rather flee the famine for food, than farmland, which makes the grain production in various places decline sharply, and a large number of cultivated land has been abandoned, in fact, talent is the more important reason.

Once the Presbyterian Council controls the situation, it can give the people a relatively stable situation, coupled with the Elders' strong scientific and technological strength, as well as a large amount of gold as the government's start-up capital, although the elders can't afford to endure hardships, but they are still down-to-earth, and the people are still very willing to work obediently in such a situation, although it is extremely difficult for ordinary people to transform into industrial workers.

However, one advantage is that under the tradition of respecting knowledge, the literacy work for grassroots workers and ordinary people has made amazing progress, even in the busiest moments, learning only three words a day, and after a year, it is enough to read books and newspapers, and if you don't turn your eyes blind, you can go to the city to work and find a job alone.

However, once the order was re-established, under the protection of the strong force of the Elders' Council, these ordinary people still broke out with great enthusiasm for resuming production and pursuing a better life, and quickly perfected the various plans of the Presbyterian Council, and the development of agriculture reached a certain calm, but under the trend of small farms, farms and vegetable farmers began to popularize.

Of course, these jobs are not without benefits, the craftsmen were selected in batches and began to carry out a secondary diversion, many very smart craftsmen, relying on their craftsmanship to produce things, can also understand how modern machines have changed production activities, while entering the presbyterian factory work, in exchange for living expenses, on the other hand, the smart people among them, also gradually learned the production process of the modern factory, and soon some people began to work alone!

So to a certain extent, around the Presbyterian Church, a small group of factories has been formed, although the technology and tools are purchased from the Presbyterian Church, but the selling of playing cards can become the world's largest factories, and these small factories may not be called pillars in the future.

Hebei, Shanxi, Northeast China and Shandong and Henan in the north are also rich in minerals, and the coal and steel complex is not nonsense, after the arrival of the presbyterian meeting, most of them were confiscated and returned to the name of the presbyterian church, and became the property of the Chinese mining company, and these mining and metallurgical industries were gradually restored, and the original miners also found a way to eat, and solved some labor problems.

Of course, there are many craftsmen, who were exploited by the government in the past and could not become homeless, but now there are elders to provide them with survival security, although they cannot be transformed into a factory system, but they have also begun to resume production, relying on their own crafts, to earn living materials, this kind of family workshop-style small handicraft workshops, such as embroidery, bamboo weaving, wood, silverware and other industries, but also after life gradually settled, began to spring up like mushrooms after the rain, although there is not much effect at present, but even in later generationsEven with the pandemic, many crafts have maintained their spring and future, and sooner or later, these small crafts will develop in a big way, providing another solid guarantee for the finances of the Presbyterian Church in the future.

And these things, the elders often don't have to take care of it personally, now it's not like before, they are seriously lacking manpower, after six or seven years of deep cultivation, the first batch of children enrolled in school, which is personally educated by the elders, has basically begun to enter the state of work, although these children are not as good as the high school graduates of later generations, but the modern thinking is already the strongest.

Therefore, if the elders have any ideas, as long as they click on them, these people will become more and more able to understand, and they will know what to do, and they will arrange it according to his instructions, and vigorously implement it.

Although the elders are mainly engineering, it is difficult to have management all-rounders, but many of the knowledge is not comparable to the people of this era, every time they put forward some ideas, they always let the children under their hands admire the five-body throw, when the leader sometimes does not necessarily want you to do everything, but as long as you know how to do things, the people below will not dare to fool you, and the current internal officials are still doing the founding heroes after the unification of the world, and the heart is enough, and the work is also practical and hardworking, and the efficiency of work is naturally not in the twilight of life. The entire bureaucratic system has been completely eroded, and my Daming is much higher.

Of course, this civil service examination has also begun to reform, basically it will become the last one, the civil service examination for the Da Ming scholars, otherwise, new candidates will have to pass a cultural level test, with basic mathematics, literacy and general knowledge, before they can apply for the exam.

For the imperial capital, although there are many talents stranded in the north, many of them have also begun to accept their fate, and according to this announcement, the next civil service examination will distinguish the difference between central civil servants and local civil servants.

In the future, if you want to apply for the central civil service examination, you need to have a local civil servant or some actual work experience, and you can no longer let a group of people who are not experienced in the world just enter the government.

Xia Yunyi was moved for a while, but he was quickly diluted this idea, this newly reformed civil service examination, according to the subject, the so-called central civil servants, basically are extremely low-level general work, only a few so-called, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Policy Planning Department, but it is only recruiting clerks.

In fact, the so-called imperial examination, in addition to the champion general figures, is basically good to give a seven-rank official, but this kind of situation of directly planning a position for you and letting you sign up separately is still very rare.

He looked at it, but there were no jobs in his hometown, but there were many local positions in Hebei.

However, he is not much interested in this, it seems that the rules of this new court have indeed changed, and only by understanding the new rules in advance and following them can the best interests of the family be protected.

Soon, Xia Yunyi heard about it, and there seemed to be something going on, and there was a lot of uproar.
