England in July is still shrouded in light rain, sunny for a while, cloudy for a while, and rainy for a while, which constitutes the weather with English characteristics and rich English characteristics.

Foreigners would have been surprised, while the Englishmen had gone about their business calmly and so accustomed that some even looked at the fuss foreigners with interest and snickered from time to time.

The national highways leading from the counties to London are being expanded step by step.

On the existing roads, the road builders dug the dirt one by one, and under the supervision of the overseers, they waved with all their strength.

A little rain fell on their faces, and they just wiped it with their hands, and then went back to work.

They don't care about these light rains at all, only the work in their hands moves them.

Since the launch of the nationwide road construction campaign, the local government and the central government have each borne half of the cost of road construction, and the manpower has come from farmers who have been idle and displaced people who have lost their land.

One shilling a month, one meal, which made the peasants run to tell each other, huddled together one by one to sign up, and the labor force was richer than ever.

Although the daily consumption is huge, it is also very fast, and according to the booked plan, in less than three years, the national highways of the whole of England will be completed.

The workers worked step by step, and from time to time there would be slips and falls on the muddy road, which made the workers relax a lot after work.

At this moment, a carriage ushered in in the distance.

The carriage was enormous, pulled by three horses, about ten feet long and eight feet wide, and the body was wrapped in canvas to protect the passengers inside.

Behind the carriage, followed by two horsemen on horseback, their bodies drenched but still braving the rain, followed.

From this point of view, it is either a high-ranking official or a wealthy businessman, and it is easy to provoke.

Seeing this, the overseer, who was wearing a raincoat, pulled the leg of his trousers, twice as fast as usual, and ran.

It's not that he wants to pat himself on the back or anything, it's just that in the avenue where the carriage is driving, more than a dozen road builders who are not afraid of death and have a full face are standing in the middle of the road with a swagger against the iron, and there is no fear at all.

That's right, they're road ragepers, the kind of roadblocks that rob the road.

This is what farmers often do in rural areas or sparsely populated areas.

Relying on the strength of the crowd, these peasants were timid and afraid of things in ordinary times, but when they got together, they boldly asked the pedestrians and merchants for money to increase some spare money.

If you don't give it, they'll beat you up, rob you of all your money, and even worse, kill people.

In great countries, in some remote areas, this mid-road fighter still exists from time to time.

A dozen people raised their chins, iron shovels in their hands, and proudly faced the approaching carriage.

"Boss, something doesn't look right with this carriage!" A thin man, looking at the carriage that was bigger than ever, said timidly.

"Humph! What are you afraid of, look at this carriage, ordinary ones can't be more ordinary, it's just a little big! ”

The man standing in the middle has a horizontal face and is also the tallest among the people, so he is elected as the boss.

He glanced at the thin man with disdain, spat out a mouthful of phlegm, and continued:

"In my opinion, this is a fat sheep, if you get a lot of money today, everyone will go drink today!"

The boss looked at the approaching carriage, patted his chest, and made a promise.

"Thank you, Boss!" "I like to drink the most!" ……

When the younger brothers heard that they could drink, they hurriedly flattered, and their eyebrows fluttered one by one.

The groom in the carriage did not seem to have seen such a situation, and the carriage stopped a little slowly, and the horse's hooves splashed sewage and spilled everyone's faces.

"Come down, come down, pay the fare!"

The boss was not spared, his whole body was soaked, with muddy water on his forehead, and the warm words on his mouth were swallowed, and he immediately shouted loudly, unceremoniously.

"Come down quickly and pay the money, otherwise you will be good-looking!" The little brothers immediately cheered, shouting one by one.

"What's going on?" One of the men in the carriage lifted the curtain and asked the groom.

The groom glanced disapprerovingly at the swaggering crowd there, and replied softly to the greeting young man:

"It's nothing, a road rage, trying to rob us!"

As he spoke, the groom glanced disdainfully at the outnumbered workers, and his contempt was palpable.

Hearing this, the boss couldn't hold back any longer, waved the iron in his hand, and was about to give them a good look, when he suddenly felt a pain in his neck, and then his whole body fell into the mud.

"Who is it?" The boss had dirt in his mouth, touched his red neck, raised his head, and shouted loudly.

Just wanted to continue, but when he saw that it was the overseer, he immediately retracted the next words.

"Get out, get out, get out of here!" The overseer touched his aching right hand and shouted at the group in front of him.

Immediately after, these people even crawled away, and they didn't dare to let go of their farts.

"Misunderstanding, it's all misunderstanding!" The overseer waved his hands and apologized.

"Oh!" The young man who came out glanced at the groom, "Then forget it!" ”

"Whew-" The Overseer breathed a sigh of relief and a smile on his face, "Of course, of course!" ”

After receiving forgiveness, he couldn't help but feel relieved.

"What's the matter? What happened? At that moment, the two knights arrived, and the overseer was startled, and his forehead was dripping with rain or sweat.

"It's nothing, it's just a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!"

The overseer craned his neck, smiled, and looked at the young man with a pleading gaze.

"Nothing!" Under the expectant gaze of the overseer, the young man shook his head at the inquiring knight and said aloud.

Only then did the two knights give up asking, and it was okay.

Then the overseer breathed a sigh of relief, smiled a few words, and then dragged his wet shoes, and stood briskly by the side of the road, watching the carriage leave.

It was only when the carriage and the two knights were completely out of sight that the overseer was relieved.

Step by step, the overseer came to the workers at work, and shouted at the boss just now: "Don't think that I dare not fire you, I don't know how many people are waiting in line outside who want to join?" ”……

Under the reprimand, the workers were silent.

After a while, his attitude softened, after all, there was also a part of him in that money.

"Who's that carriage? It doesn't look like an aristocrat, does it? There is a knight to protect it! ”

The boss asked in a whisper, shrinking his head.

"The next time the eyes are bright, those are the college students in the county, who went to London to take the entrance examination, I don't know how many officials will appear in it? Those two knights were arranged by the county lieutenant and were closely protected! ”

According to the new regulations for the admission examination of officials, those who take the entrance examination are first screened in the county, and each county has a quota of 10 people.

After passing, it is directly conferred the title of university student, and it is recognized by the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, and a certificate is issued.

This college student title is time-limited, only three years.

Within three years, you can go directly to London to take the entrance exam without passing the county exam.

It can be said that the people in the car are very likely to become officials.
