Chapter 236: It turned out to be a famous family
"Or else?"
Li Gengyun had a smile on his face, and then stretched out his hand to signal to Mu Bai and asked him to answer.
"Then Mu Bai will be ugly!"
Mu Bai also showed a smile on his face, bowed to Li Gengyun and the others to show respect, and then explained very calmly how he came up with this five jars of wine.
"Ten empty wine jars, the store also gave me three jars of wine, after drinking three jars of wine can be exchanged for one jar of wine, after drinking a jar of wine, there are two empty jars in my hand. In this way, my friends and I have already drunk four jars of water and wine, and then we have a jar of wine to the store, and after drinking, there are five jars of wine, and three empty jars are replaced with one jar of water and wine, and this jar of water and wine is returned to the store. It's five jars of water wine. ”
The logic that Mu Bai said was the same as the answer on the Internet, and it was also in line with the answer in Li Gengyun's heart.
"Well, question two!"
Originally, Li Gengyun only planned to test Mu Bai's first question, but Mu Bai's answer made him feel a little logical, so he thought that this Mu Bai would give him a bigger surprise, so he brought the second question to him again.
"Isn't it just the first question to be answered?" Mu Bai had some doubts in his heart, but when he saw the smile on Li Gengyun's face, he also understood, the other party obviously wanted to test himself.
Li Gengyun was born in a cold family, and in Mu Bai's opinion, he will never embarrass himself who is also a poor family, so this should be a test, or this is the second round of tests.
"Good!"
In the face of Li Gengyun's question, Mu Bai bowed his hand again, saluted Li Gengyun and the others, and said the answer to the second question.
"If there is a big chaos today, although the northern frontier of Xizhou is not controlled by the Northern Yuan, Lizhou is already the territory of the Northern Yuan, so if the iron ore in Xizhou wants to enter Lizhou and Xiangzhou, it will definitely be known by the Northern Yuan. Although Xiangzhou brocade is the first in the world, the people of Lizhou and Xizhou will never be able to do this Xiangzhou brocade. So three brothers, no one can make a fortune. Unless Lizhou is subsumed into Xiangzhou and the trade channel is opened, in this way, the iron ore in Xizhou can enter Lizhou and Xiangzhou, and the grain in Lizhou can be transported to Xiangzhou and Xizhou, and the people of Xizhou and Lizhou can also wear Xiangzhou brocade, so that the three brothers can make a fortune. Therefore, the answer to this question is not whether there is business and trade interoperability and earn plug-ins, the key is to recapture Lizhou. ”
"Hahaha! Ok, good, good! ”
Li Gengyun suddenly laughed when he heard Mu Bai's answer, and then motioned to his attendant to hand over the answer he had written on the test paper to Mu Bai, and said, "The third question, I don't want to test you anymore, you take a look at my answer." As for the assessment, I still won't give it to you. ”
"This ...... Why didn't Mr. Li give me an assessment? Mu Bai stretched out his hand to take the test paper handed over by the attendant, and saw the answer on it, isn't it exactly "Five altars, seize Lizhou, the trend of the times", his explanation just now is no different from Li Gengyun's answer, why don't you evaluate yourself, is it because your edge is too exposed?
"Throw the paper into the brazier and come and sit down." Li Gengyun said to Mu Bai with a smile, then pointed to the position beside him, and at the same time said to Zhao Ziyi, who was sitting next to him, "Ziyi, you move over there." ”
"Huh?!"
Not only Zhao Ziyi was confused, but everyone present was confused.
"This, Mr. Li, what does this mean? Could it be said? ”
"What does Mr. Li mean by letting Mu Bai sit next to him?"
"Could it be that Mr. Li wants him to accompany him to the exam?"
Nangong's eyes widened, and he looked at Mu Bai with envious eyes, Li Gengyun said that he would not give Mu Bai an evaluation, but looking at Mu Bai's expression when he saw the answer, it was clearly a completely correct look. It stands to reason that if you can get the first grade for your answer, then the completely correct Mu Bai will at least be the first grade, or even higher.
"Could it be that Mr. Li wants to take him as a protégé?!"
"What! Brother Nangong, what did you say? You said that Mr. Li wants to accept Mu Bai as a protégé?! ”
"This! It's so envious of me waiting! ”
"Yes! He's really shit lucky! ”
Li Gengyun's name has spread throughout Xiangzhou in just a few days, and everyone knows that after the fall of Fang Tong, Ma Wenlong and Zhao Ziyi are in charge of the overall situation, and Guo Feng, the military advisor on the Wenchen side, and several of his friends, namely the four heroes of Xiangyang, are jointly handling the government affairs of Xiangzhou. But the most well-known is that Li Gengyun, who led seven people to kill the 3,000 elites at the east gate of Xiangyang City, and then broke the 10,000 army brought by Fang Tong and successfully won Fang Tong. Li Gengyun can be said to have become famous in a fight, and what is even more surprising is that he is a scribe and a humble scribe. Since then, rumors about Li Gengyun have also spread all over Xiangzhou, but no matter what the rumors are, there is one thing that everyone can be sure of, that is, Li Gengyun is the first minister of the dynasty, and his status surpasses Ma Wenlong, Zhao Ziyi and Guo Feng, and he is above 10,000 people under one person.
What an honor it is to be able to become Li Gengyun's protégé, not to mention that he will rely on it in Xiangzhou, but more importantly, with Li Gengyun's talent and learning, it is enough to make everyone unreachable, and he can get his guidance, and there will definitely be a qualitative leap in talent and attainments in the future.
Li Gengyun's reaction when he saw everyone was also a little strange, especially the words of the other seven scribes standing on the side talking, which also made him a little speechless. He really thinks that Mu Bai's thinking is smart, his knowledge is wide, and he has a good view of the overall situation, so he plans to let him stay and evaluate the next other scholars with him, of course, this is also indirectly continuing to test Mu Bai. As for taking Mu Bai under his door, Li Gengyun really didn't think about it, but since someone proposed it, he could accept one for the time being, so that it would be convenient to pass on his new ideas later.
"I don't know where Mu Bai's master came from?"
"I studied under my father and my mother. His father, Mu Yang, was a Jinshi in the former dynasty, but was later repatriated to his hometown because he was falsely accused of being greedy for ink. The mother of the family, Mu's willow catkins, is the daughter of the Liu family in Jiangzhou. ”
Mu Bai heard Li Gengyun ask where he was studying, and he answered very confidently to the other party, telling Li Gengyun that his parents were the ones who taught him knowledge.
"Jiangzhou Liu Family?!" Li Gengyun didn't know what kind of identity the Jiangzhou Liu family was, but Zhao Ziyi knew that not only Zhao Ziyi, but all the scribes present knew it.
"Mr. Li, the Liu family in Jiangzhou, is a scholarly family in Jiangzhou, the Great Song Dynasty has gone through nine dynasties so far, the Liu family has produced eight dynasties of prime ministers, and protégés and former officials are all over the Great Song Dynasty. Liu Yong, the first genius in Jiangzhou, is the grandson of the Liu family in Jiangzhou! ”
"Speaking of which, Liu Yong is my cousin!"
Mu Bai's identity also surprised Li Gengyun, it turned out that this poor scholar, his identity was not low, he was the nephew of a scholarly family in Jiangzhou, and his father was a jinshi of the previous dynasty.
"It turned out to be a famous queen!"
