Huang Jie hurriedly changed his clothes, washed up again, and went to the flower hall.

At this time, the hall was also lively, in addition to the uncle and the old man, the two guests of honor, there were several people from the Wan family, namely father-in-law Wan Nianqing, father-in-law Wan Niansong and several young people of the same generation as Huang Jie.

As soon as he entered the door, Yao Zheng asked out loud: "Jie'er, have things been done?" ”

Huang Jie knew that this was his uncle doing something for him, so he nodded and said, "It's already done!" ”

Yao Zheng asked Huang Jie to sit, and after serving tea, he also introduced: "This time to widen and repair the official road, it is also done well, this morning the judge was full of praise in front of the government officials, and promised to write a letter of recommendation for you, recommending you to go to Shouchun to study, what do you think?" ”

Huang Jie replied: "Within five years, the child does not want to leave Huangzhou, and now the state and county examination and the provincial examination have stopped, which is just the time to turn around with the child." ”

In the fourth year of Xining (1071 AD), Wang Anshi created the three-way method for students, and divided the students into three classes: upper house, inner house, and outer house. After a certain number of years and conditions, the outer house students can be promoted to the inner house, and the inner house students can be promoted to the upper house; Those who have excellent results in the upper dormitory examination will be directly conferred on the official ranks, those who are intermediate will directly participate in the palace examination, and those who are inferior will directly participate in the provincial examination. Later, it was stipulated that the "Three Classics and New Meanings" annotated by Wang Anshi was a must-read book. In the second year of Yuanfeng (1079 AD), 140 articles of the three-rounding method were formulated, and a series of examination methods were promulgated.

After the second year of Zhezong Yuanfu (1099 AD), the three-way method was gradually spread to all kinds of schools. In the third year of Chongning (1104 AD), the state and county examinations and provincial examinations were stopped, and scholars could not enter the office without rounding.

Although Huangzhou is the state capital, but the administrative level is limited to only have a county school in the city that belongs to Huanggang County, and Shouchun is also Shouzhou as the capital of Huainan West Road, there is a higher level of government school than the county school, according to the provisions of the three-round law, Huang Jie himself as the head of the county case is qualified to study in the government, but he still has to take the road of recommendation.

Now this Huangzhou general judge is willing to write a letter of recommendation to Huang Jie, recommending him to go to Shouzhou to study, which can be described as a shortcut to heaven, but who knows that Huang Jie is not accepted.

Yao Zheng frowned when he heard this, but he roughly knew what Huang Jie was going to do, so he asked, "But what excuse is it good to use to prevaricate?" ”

Huang Jie thought about it for a while, and then said: "It's okay to call it sick, but it's not enough to call the incense unsuccessful, and my parents are reluctant to travel away." ”

When the old man heard this, he glared at him and said, "Phew! But it's to play with my old face? ”

Huang Jie bowed to the old man, and then said to the Wan family, who had not spoken, with a straight face: "Father-in-law and uncle-in-law, I invited you two here today to say something important. ”

Wan Nianqing hurriedly said: "Da Lang, Yao Jiaweng just talked to me about this matter, and I haven't come up with a plan after thinking about it, Da Lang just went out to do something, but for this matter?" ”

Huang Jie's face was hot when he heard it, but fortunately, there are oil lamps lit in the flower hall now, and the lights are red and hard for people to see clearly, so Huang Jie said: "It is for this matter that I have now consulted the plan, and I also ask the elders to plan with me." ”

Yao Zheng touched his beard under his chin and said, "Come on!" ”

Huang Jie didn't think about it, and simply copied Wang Xin's original words and said: "Now that I think about it, it's just three strategies." The next step is nothing more than to destroy the workshop and flee with the whole family! ”

When everyone heard this, their faces were different, and Wan Nianqing asked, "How is the middle strategy?" ”

Huang Jie said: "Changing course and offering Fang Zi and Tong Guan is the middle strategy!" ”

After listening to this strategy, Yao Zheng and Lao Qi didn't react much, but the Wan family looked at each other, and their expressions showed reluctance, Wan Nianqing and Wan Niansong glanced at each other, but also Wan Niansong said: "In Bianliang, it is also rumored that Tong Guan and Gao Yu are complicit, and they have formed a party with Cai Jing. ”

Huang Jie also said: "I inquired, this time Tong Guan Jun is the supervisor of the army, Tan Zhen, is actually the prince's family. The profit of canned meat as a source of wealth is indeed small, and it can be of great use in the military, and now deliberately lead the army south to Huangzhou, just for an ambition to win. ”

When everyone heard this, they were all surprised, and Yao Zheng hurriedly said: "Da Lang, is this matter serious?" ”

Although Yao Zheng is the lord of Huangzhou, he is also far away from the court and the sea, so he really doesn't know the factional connections here, so Huang Jie also said bluntly: "Uncle, this matter is what Wang Xin said, I would rather believe it!" ”

Wang Xin's section, the Wan family didn't know, and they didn't know what kind of deputy envoy Wang Xin was, but after listening to Huang Jie say it to Yao Zheng, Yao Zheng's letter was already true, so he didn't do a deep study. Or Wan Nian Song said: "If this matter really involves the prince, Zhongce has indeed lost the opportunity, it is better to dedicate Fang Zi to the prince before Tong Guan." ”

Huang Jie smiled when he heard this: "I heard that this is the crown prince of the dynasty, and now he is only the same age as me, such a major event will definitely not be planned by himself as I am, and the person who plots with the prince is only afraid that he will be in collusion with Tong Guan early, and he will not be able to bypass Tong Guan like this." ”

As soon as everyone thought about it, they were all embarrassed, but the old man took a sip of the teacup and said: "Or talk about the best policy, it is not to make people stab Tong Guan, and it is simply a dead account." ”

Huang Jie smiled bitterly and said, "This is the best policy...... I'm afraid that my father will be the first to refuse, that is, to make the secret recipe of my family's canned meat public! ”

"Grandpa! Public? When the old man heard this, he almost jumped up, and he was about to scold Huang Jie by blowing his eyes and glaring, but Yao Zheng grabbed him and said, "Jie'er, tell me why this is the best policy?" ”

Huang Jie has now straightened out his thinking, and said: "The nature of the world, with this secret recipe, it is natural to enjoy it exclusively. Tong Guan mobilized the crowd this time, colluded with the prince to subdue Gao Yu, and coerced the power of 50,000 troops, the only plan was not to enjoy the secret recipe of canned meat. In this case, we made the secret recipe public, which first of all made him unsatisfactory, and secondly, after the recipe was made public, the world knew that even if he had all kinds of means, it was impossible to kill all the people in the world, so naturally he did not dare to touch a single hair of my family. ”

Everyone listened to it and pondered, and Yao Zheng said: "There is a way that the husband is not guilty, and he is guilty, and the secret recipe for canned meat, maybe Jie'er's strategy is not incomprehensible." ”

Wan Nianqing also said: "Tong Guan must monopolize his interests, and he may not dare to kill people and kill his mouth, so it is better to let him be dissatisfied." ”

Huang Jie also hit the railway while it was hot: "If you think this strategy is feasible, how to make it public still needs to rely on the voice of your father-in-law." I mean, I want to invite my father-in-law to come forward, to the south, to the east, to the west to contact the local families, wealthy families, high-ranking families and sitting on the Jia giant business, under the pretext of in order to deal with the emperor's errand, willing to transfer the secret recipe of canned meat. This secret recipe for canned meat is also very simple, no need to make any atlas cheats, as long as you lead people to look at it in the workshop you can learn, when I pour the Huang family only monopolizes the Dongpo meat, the Wan family can occupy the canned fruits of all colors in the south of the Yangtze River, and let the rest of the merchants find their own deliciousness, packaged into cans and sold in the world. Tong Guan came, and I also generously gave it away, so that Tong Guan's exclusive idea of bamboo basket fetched water. ”

When the Wan family heard this, their eyes lit up, this canned meat can not only be made into Dongpo meat, but also can be made into five-color canned fruits, in addition, this chicken, duck and fish meat can also be filled. On the one hand, the secret recipe of Dongpo meat is the exclusive possession of the Huang family, and others can't do it at all.

The most important thing is that Huang Jie casually gave the canned fruit market to Wanjia, you must know that Wanjia casually sells more than 100,000 catties of preserved fruit a year, accounting for half of the whole Song Dynasty preserved fruit market.
