Chapter 110: Children's Test (Explosive Update 1)
New year, new atmosphere. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The land of the Liu family increased to more than 100 acres in an instant, and it was an unknown gateway in these three towns and five miles.
There is Liu Yanran who said that she is from her mother-in-law's family, and there is someone who came to Liu Yuanshan to say that she is her daughter-in-law.
For these, both Liu Yuanshan and Liu Yanran refused one by one.
On the second day of Uncle Mao's trip to Xiangyang, the school opened, and Wang Xiucai asked a few friends who were studying to review their homework in the school.
He ran to the school by himself, Wang Xiucai took out a thin piece of rice paper with a smile, handed it to him and said: "Look at it, this year's children's test is about to start again, your uncle and they asked me to vouch, a total of four people have been gathered, and there is still one missing, or you can go." ”
Liu Yuanshan took the rice paper and took a general look, and found that in addition to the name of the uncle Liu Xiaozhong, there were two descendants surnamed Zhao, who estimated that they should be from the Zhao family of Zhao Wangzhuang, and the rest of the surname was Sun, and Liu Yuanshan didn't know it, so it didn't seem to be a student near Liujia Village.
"Uncle made a mistake a few years ago, can he still take the test now?" Liu Yuanshan was surprised.
"It's okay!" Wang Xiucai waved his hand and said, "Since Lord Huang did not convict him, nor did he remove him from his status as a scholar, he naturally could also be tested." After a pause, he said: "The imperial examination is not better than poetry and elegance, and it will win or lose with poetry, in addition to the general scriptures, there are also eight shares and strategies, you are too young to worry about it now, this year you will try to open your eyes, and it doesn't matter much!" ”
"Sir, it's better not to, I've only been studying for a few months, it's impossible, I'll wait, next year or later, I'll take the exam!"
Liu Yuanshan blindly shirked, not that he really decided to take the exam next year and the year after, but that he knew that the Ming Dynasty was about to die, and he was powerless even if he was a god, and he couldn't do anything for a dynasty that was about to die.
The Ming Dynasty is gone, even if you take the Xiucai test, you can lift people, and what can you do if you take the Jinshi test?
It is better to spend a good time on developing yourself, making more money, buying more land, and developing more, and there is one more important point.
He Liu Yuanshan wants to make money quickly, and it is obviously impossible to rely on farming, only by business! And once you get involved with commercial businessmen, don't think about going to the imperial examination again in this life, even if you get fame, the government will dismiss you.
Instead of being made a mess by the government at that time, it is better to simply be a happy big landlord and live happily, I went to the imperial examination, and I was kicked in the head by a donkey!
"Hey......" Wang Xiucai said with a straight face: "Cowardice before entering, this is not the work of scholars, there are thousands of troops and horses in front of them, and we must also show the backbone of our scholars, can't you be so submissive?" ”
"Don't think about it, even if you don't hit this time, no one will look down on you!" Wang Xiucai was afraid that he would cherish his reputation, so he came out to excuse him again.
But what Liu Yuanshan meant was this, he still refused with a smile, and said: "What the kid said when he apprenticed to the teacher that day was clear, following the gentleman was just to read and write, as for the way to be an official in the imperial examination, the kid is really not here, sir, your old man will spare me if you are merciful." ”
Liu Yuanshan and Wang Xiucai have been showing up for a long time, and they are gradually getting familiar with each other, and they naturally talk about each other. Moreover, it seems that Wang Xiucai is not a few years older than him.
"The exam will start in February, do you still think about it......" Seeing Liu Yuanshan's refusal on his face, he bowed his head slightly, stretched his neck and leaned in front of Liu Yuanshan and asked in a low voice: "You really don't plan to mix in officialdom?" ”
"Not intended!" Liu Yuanshan replied simply, and then persuaded in turn: "Sir, I don't think your old man is an official, don't take the test, you can mix with me!" ”
"You little rabbit cub, you say one more word, see if the old man doesn't break your head!" Wang Xiucai pretended to be angry, and his hand was raised high, but it did not fall.
Liu Yuanshan still looks like a hippie smile.
Wang Xiucai suddenly lost his temper, and the seriousness he had just pretended to be instantly collapsed, pointing at Liu Yuanshan's nose and saying helplessly: "You stinky boy, who is the master and who is the disciple?" ”
"You, you, you, you are a master, a disciple is a disciple!"
"Well, fuck off!" Wang Xiucai didn't have a problem with him, waved his hand and said: "You have almost learned to read and write now, don't bother Lao Tzu in the future, Lao Tzu will prepare for the autumn season." ”
Autumn Examination, that is, the Township Examination, after the Township Examination is lifted, and there is the qualification to enter Beijing to catch the examination, because the Township Examination is generally held in the autumn, it is also called Autumn Examination.
Although Wang Xun is not a talented person, he is diligent and inquisitive, and his talent is quite high, and he has great confidence in Qiuqiu.
Liu Yuanshan listened to the master's order to expel the guests, and it was inconvenient to stay longer, so he hurried back home after meeting Wang Xiucai.
It's better not to go to school, after all, it's not a person of the same era, and the pursuit is different.
What Liu Yuanshan wants is to read and write, improve his literacy and walk conveniently, and Wang Xiucai's scientific examination is to be an official. With a lot of time, it's better to do more meaningful things.
The steel has been refined, and the craftsmen are basically in hand, and with their own personal guidance by their side, there is no problem at all in making a simple steam engine. Once the steam engine was introduced, many processes that relied on human labor could be liberated, such as blowers, such as grinding fine cement, such as stirring soap.
Make a small stirrer, the soap liquid that used to take two or three hours to stir manually can now be done in only ten minutes, and the output of osmanthus soap will definitely have a qualitative leap.
After the output goes up, the relationship between supply and demand will change greatly, and it is a matter of time before the price comes down, after all, Liu Yuanshan's purpose is to make soap a popular commodity, which will not only facilitate ordinary people, but also bring more financial resources to himself.
The model of small profits and quick sales no longer needs to be verified, and it can be used directly.
He will not worry about sales, once the price is reduced to a level that ordinary people can consume, a group of second-class dealers will inevitably emerge, which is already an inevitable law in the history of commercial development.
The only problem that made him feel quite painful was that there were no osmanthus flowers.
Don't say no, even if there is, where can support so much soap production. If there is no fragrance of osmanthus in the soap, then the soap cannot be regarded as perfect osmanthus soap, and the name is a little unrealistic.
But these are small problems, in the Ming Dynasty only he can make osmanthus soap, I believe there will be no large number of complaints.
The problem of productivity is no longer a problem, so there is still a problem that needs to be solved before large-scale manufacturing. (To be continued.) )
