Ma Ruoyan walked out of the restaurant and couldn't wait to ask, "Are you sure about this county test?" ”

When Lin Mo heard this, he smiled and said, "I should be able to get in." ”

"That's good, I heard that you were the first to come out, and it only took more than half an hour to really scare me, and I thought you gave up the exam."

Lin Mo smiled bitterly: "Don't worry, even if I can't write, I will fill the paper, how can I give up the exam." ”

Lin Mo looked at Ma Ruoyan and asked in a low voice, "How do you feel about this county test?" ”

Ma Ruoyan thought about it and said with some confidence: "It shouldn't be a big problem." I think I should be able to give it a try. ”

When Lin Mo heard this, he hurriedly replied: "My second miss, don't be impulsive, this time there is no danger in the past, and next time it will not be so lucky, in case it is found out, it is really impossible to eat and go around." ”

Ma Ruoyan laughed out loud when she saw "poof". "Don't worry, I'm not that impulsive yet.

Lin Mo was relieved at this time, and then said: "This time I may have robbed some of the business of the restaurant, and some of it may belong to your Ma family." ”

Ma Ruoyan shook her head and said: "You don't have to take care of our Ma family for these things, the success or failure of fair competition lies in the individual, if you are really robbed of business, you can't complain about others." Lin Mo nodded when he heard this, so that Lin Mo had the bottom in his heart.

In the next few days, Lin Mo began to get busy, on the one hand, he found a shop, and on the other hand, he promoted the banquet on the fifteenth, but the effect of publicity was very small, Zhao En was a little apprehensive about this, although the number of guests increased significantly after the price of vegetables was reduced, but the profit did not increase.

Lin Mo asked him to relax that he didn't have to care so much about these profits. Lin Mo is busy here, and the county school is already hyped, and the county magistrate Song Yihe, the county Cheng Zhou Qian, and several other old scholars are reviewing the answer sheets for this year's county exam. whereas

After the approval, there was a dispute over who should be the head of the case, and the focus of the dispute was on the two answer sheets, one was Lin Mo's, one was Luo Ning's, and the other was one named Lu Guan. Judging from this answer sheet alone, there is no doubt that Lin Mo's is more brilliant, Luo Ning's is second, and although Lu Guan's is also good, it is much worse than that.

But Song Yi insisted on rating Lu Guan as the head of the case, Lin Mo and Luo Ning were listed as two or three, although several examiners did not agree but did not dare to say it, those who knew the inside story knew that this Lu Guan was the son of the Lu family of the Qian Nanwang clan, and Lin Mo and Luo Ning had no door and no roots, they were ordinary people, of course, this Lin Mo could not be completely said to have no background, he had a personal relationship with the Ma family, and he also had a friendship with the county order. Originally, with this relationship and Lin Mo's talent, it was a sure thing to take a case.

But not this year, the Lu family has already taken care of it, they are bound to win this case, Song Yi also gave this case to the Lu family as a favor, although Lin Mo was a little ashamed, but at most he would help him give him some compensation.

As for that Luo Ning Song Yi didn't take it to heart, this Qian Nan really didn't have a wang clan surnamed Luo, and he had never heard of this person, it is estimated that it is from which town in the county, and it is already good to give him a third.

In the face of such an arrangement, if Zhou Qian was not ashamed of this kind of behavior, he would not refute it head-on, after all, these people have nothing to do with Zhou Qian. But today is different, Zhou Qian said: "Lord County Commander, the lower officials think that this ranking is a bit inappropriate. ”

Song Yi was a little surprised when he heard this, and asked, "Huh?" Zhou Xiancheng, what's wrong with this? ”

Zhou Xiancheng replied: "Although this Lu Guan has some talent, there is still a gap between him and Lin Mo and Luo Ning, and the lower officials think that Lin Mo is the first, Luo Ning is second, and Lu Guan is the third. ”

Everyone was a little surprised when they heard this, this Lin Mo and Zhou Qian had some festivals, why would they help Lin Mo speak now. Song Yi frowned when he heard this, he and Zhou Qian have never dealt with each other, but basically as long as he does not damage Zhou Qian's interests, Zhou Qian will not act against him, why did Zhou Qian go against himself this time? This Lin Mo shouldn't be his person.

Seeing Song Yi's performance like this, Zhou Qian knew that he didn't want to change this ranking, so Zhou Qian said: "This time, His Majesty Enke attaches great importance to it, and asks the state governments to select outstanding people to sort out and copy their poems, scriptures, and meanings into a book for circulation. This reality, we have to at least submit the top ten answer sheets to the state capital, for the government Yin Lord to check and select, if Lin Mo and Luo Ning's poems are submitted, it will definitely make the government Yin Da happy, if it is submitted according to this ranking, I am afraid that the government Yin will not be easy to explain. ”

When Song Yi heard this, he remembered that there was something to do, and hurriedly counted: "Yes, yes, the county is right, this ranking has to be renegotiated, yes, it will be ranked according to what the county Cheng said, the first of this case is Lin Mo, this Luo Ning is second, and Lu Guan is third." ”

The rest of the people breathed a sigh of relief, if the head of the scum case was really given to Lu Guan, everyone would feel a little uncomfortable, but why did the county remind Song Yi this time, the two had a conflict, and if Song Yi went wrong, he should be happy.

Zhou Qian knew that even if he really let Lu Guan, the case would be submitted to him. Fu Yin Du Shaofu can only treat him for negligence and dereliction of duty at most, but he will not punish him severely, because this Song Yi also has a backer behind him, although he doesn't know who it is, his energy must be not small.

It was not easy to help Lin Mo fight for the head of the case this time, and the others didn't care so much. After the ranking is determined, everyone begins to prepare for the release of the list, the release date is the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there are still three days to calculate the day.

On the other side, Lin Mo and the others finally found a shop, a total of five shops, in different places in Qiannan, the shops are not very large, so the monthly rent of the five shops adds up to only seventy taels.

After Lin Mo finished dealing with these, he returned to the restaurant, where Liu Xin'er was chatting with someone at this time, and when she got closer, she saw that it was Liu Kui. When Liu Kui saw that it was Lin Mo, he hurriedly greeted him with a smile. "Uncle Liu, why are you here? Come and see Xin'er? ”

Liu Kui looked at Liu Xin'er and said with a smile: "It's also one thing to come and see Xin'er, and it's also = I'll show you the accounts of the past month or so." He pointed to a box on the table.

Lin Mo opened the box and there was an account book inside, and there was a lot of silver, and after a rough count, there were about two hundred taels.

Lin Mo closed the box and said with a smile: "Uncle Liu, it just so happens that you are here, don't go, stay here and help me, just find a trustworthy person to watch the restaurant in General Town." ”

Liu Kui had some doubts when he heard this, after all, his home was in General Town, if everyone was there, his home would no longer be like a home after a long time.

Lin Mo knew Liu Kui's thoughts, so he said: "Now that Xin'er is free, follow me, if you stay here, no matter what, the father and daughter can finally be together, and they can also help me, rest assured that I will never treat you badly." ”

When Liu Kui heard this, he also looked at Liu Xin'er and was a little moved, and finally nodded and agreed.

The next thing is how to find a suitable person to take over the restaurant in General Town, and then Lin Mo thought of something and shouted: "Wu Shun Zhoufu, you come here." ”

The two immediately put down their work and came to their side, Lin Mo looked at the two of them and said, "Now there is an opportunity to increase the salary, are you two willing?" ”

As soon as the two of them heard this, they immediately came to their senses, and Lin Mo continued: "I have a restaurant in General Town outside the city, and now the shopkeeper, that is, Uncle Liu, is also staying here, so there is a lack of a shopkeeper, which of you wants to be the shopkeeper?" ”

The two of them were a little hesitant when they heard it, after all, they were just a guy now, and it was too sudden to become a shopkeeper, although they wanted to go, but if they didn't run it well and messed up, then they really didn't have the face to see Lin Mo.

Lin Mo saw the worries of the two, so he said: "You don't have to worry, I will let Uncle Liu teach you how to operate, and then return to Qiannan when you can be the shopkeeper independently." After hearing this, the worries in the hearts of the two gradually disappeared, but only one of the two needs to go to General Town, who will this opportunity give?

Zhou Fu opened his mouth and said: "Wu Shun, you go this time, you still have an old mother at home, you still have to marry a wife and have children to pass on the lineage, you need to earn more money than me." Wu Shun was very moved when he heard this: "But what should you do if I go?" ”

Zhou Fu smiled: "Haha, I'm younger than you, I can afford to wait, you hurry up and save some money, your mother is still waiting to hold her grandson early?" When you're settled, let's just swap over. Lin Mo was moved by the relationship between the two, this may be the slaughter of dogs every time.

In this way, Wu Shun went to replace Liu Kui, Liu Kui and Wu Shun went to General Town together, and after Wu Shun brought out the division, Liu Kui came back, it would not take long, Lin Mo estimated that it would take half a month at most, and then the other shops here should also be ready to open.

In the evening, Liu Kui chatted with everyone and learned that Lin Mo had participated in the county exam, and he was very likely to be admitted, and he couldn't help but be shocked, after all, he was in the same town as Lin Mo, and naturally knew that Lin Mo had never gone to any private school since he was a child, and he didn't study much, so he participated in the county exam.

In addition, the most talked about is family affairs, Lin Mo asked about his grandfather's current situation, Liu Kui said that his grandfather is idle now, he walks around the town every day, goes to find some old men to chat, and sometimes asks which girl is not married, it should be for Lin Mo to find a daughter-in-law.

Lin Mo was a little helpless when he heard this, since Lin Mo asked his grandfather to move to the town and didn't let his grandfather continue to work as a mourner, his grandfather began to become idle, and he was bent on finding a daughter-in-law for Lin Mo. Lin Mo really wants to find a job for his grandfather now, so that he doesn't have time to find a daughter-in-law for himself.

Lin Mo thought about it, if he could find a wife for his grandfather, so that his grandfather would not be lonely. The more Lin Mo thought about it, the more he felt that this thing was feasible, but where to find the old lady, Lin Mo finally gave up this idea, after all, with his grandfather's temperament, he knew that he would probably have to hang Lin Mo on the beam of the house.

As for what Lin Mo was going to do when renting a shop, Lin Mo didn't say in detail, but just said that he would open a snack shop. But the snack shop needs to open so many rooms at one time, and Zhao En and they don't ask, they know that since Lin Mo does this, he must have his reasons.

At night, Liu Kui went to Wu Wenyan's room to rest, Wu Wenyan went back to Mafu after the county test, Lin Mo and Zhao Heng had already fallen asleep, Liu Kui couldn't sleep, and finally got up and came to the courtyard, sat on the stone bench, looked at the stars in the night sky and sighed, and couldn't help but drift into the distance.
