Chapter 121: One Cold and One Hot

In the world, the school offices of all state capitals and counties must be independent of the government and independent of the government offices.

What is the reason for this? One of the basic characteristics of ancient Chinese society was the emphasis on cultural education, and in most cases, the right way for literati to enter the government was to enter the school first. This point was unusually clear in the Song Dynasty.

On the one hand, the officials in the school department are under the direct leadership of the student officer at the next higher level, and on the other hand, they are also under the direct guidance and assessment of the local officials at the same level. It is precisely because of this system that the school administration is distinguished from the official office, and it has a bit of a self-reliance on the school department.

The self-supporting portal shows the high level of the School Department. Similarly, the officials of the Student Department are more special than those of the same level in terms of institutional identity.

Some officials will ask, with Lotte's level of almost bullshit, how can he come to the state to study.

If you say you can do it, you can do it, and if you don't do it, you can do it. One sentence says the key.

Lotte got the blue eyes of Ye Zhizhou and Chen Zhixian, and had the opportunity to be recommended to enter the school. Coincidentally, Senior Cheng of Pingyu wanted to buy some family business and wanted to buy a faΓ§ade house facing the street. As the project general manager of Pingyu Real Estate Development Company, Lotte has the absolute right to speak in the sale of houses, and the two hit it off.

One got a shop on the street at a very suitable price, and the other was recommended by Senior Cheng to enter the school, and everyone was happy to take what they needed.

The names of the officials of the school department are distinguished according to the level of the school, the government is called the professor, the seven products are the seven products, and the state school is called Xuezheng, depending on the level of the state, and the county school is called the senior. In addition, the prefectural, prefecture, and prefectural schools all have assistants who are appointed as chief officials, and are often referred to as associate schools.

Although the state school is located in another location, it is always not far from the yamen, and the door asked the location of the school office, and Lotte went out of the state office and crossed the street to the state school office.

Caizhou State School is called Weng, is an old scholar with a gray beard, took the voucher handed over by Lotte, looked at Lotte again, and said: "The rules of the state school and the county students are general, the month of October will be fasting class private test, the season of the week, the Meng month test, the middle month of the trial, the season of the month of the trial, and not easy, if you fail the class in October, the old man will still depose you back to the county school!" ”

Speaking of which, this Weng Xuezheng said again: "You are recommended by Pingyu County School to be promoted to the government school, and according to the rules, you will naturally have to take the first ......."

With the lesson of the senior of the county school last time, Lotte understood what Weng Xuezheng meant, and remained silent, reached out and took out two ingots of silver from his sleeve, and gently placed them in front of Weng Xuezheng.

In the Song Dynasty, the four characters on the money were mainly based on the era number, and the words ingots or Tongbao were embedded in the back, Chunhua ingots, Tianxi ingots and so on. In the Northern Song Dynasty, silver was not a circulating currency, but it could be exchanged for money, and the silver was used as currency in the Jin Dynasty.

It is a matter of the Yuan Dynasty to call silver ingots, which originally meant the treasure of the Yuan Dynasty, and silver ingots became popular when they were called ingots, so silver was commonly known as silver ingots in the Song Dynasty.

There are more than 20 taels of silver in two ingots, and nearly 50 taels of money are folded into money, Weng Xuezheng's eyes are full of smiles, and he quietly receives the two ingots of silver into his sleeve, so he is surprised: "If the old man has not admitted his mistake, you are the one who made 'It seems that this star is not last night, for whom is the wind and the supper." 'The county government official Lotte? ”

Having money can make ghosts grind, this is not false at all, Lotte hurriedly said: "It's the student!" ”

"Poetry is the way, and the righteousness is the road!" Weng Xuezheng said something that made Lotte's ears and eyes cocoon.

Lotte still made a look of deferencing and said, "Students respect the teachings!" ”

"Reading that you have a few talents, and after being recommended by several officials, this entrance test will be exempted!" Weng Xuezheng said, and then his face turned straight: "But if you can't pass the private test in the Yueyue class, the old man still has to follow the rules of the school!" ”

When Lotte was neutral, there were 10,000 grass and mud horses galloping by, listening to Weng Xuezheng's meaning, it was to shear sheep according to the season, and there were four exams a year, and he would have to give four benefits, otherwise he could only fail the test.

Even the place where you study in the Northern Song Dynasty is so dark, and there is no place in the world that is not dark.

When I went to the state government on an errand, without those income benefits of Pingyu, and maintaining such a large amount of expenses, wouldn't I have to drink the northwest wind, Lotte was depressed in his heart.

It was dusk when he left the school office, and Lotte wanted to visit Ye Zhizhou at night, so he spent some money to inquire about the inner hall, only to learn that Ye Zhizhou had gone out of the city to inspect, so he had to do it. He returned to the county government office and spent his first night as an errand in the state government.

On the second day, in the eaves house next to the lobby of the state government, Lotte officially went on a business trip, and it was also an official appearance in front of his new colleagues. The supervisor of the workshop, surnamed Yu, and Lotte greeted each other, and responded coldly, and then there were no other words, and the other officials in the workshop just said hello, and they each knelt on the table and were busy with their own work.

Looking at the situation, Lotte knew that he was obviously being treated coldly by his colleagues.

As soon as I arrived at the government office, Lotte was not familiar with anything, so the remaining officials did not assign Lotte any official work.

In Pingyu, he entered the county government to do things, and in addition to the three masters of the county government, when did Lotte ever be controlled by others. When catching fast and doing stickers, there is a big backer Chen Zhixian behind him, and there is a sister-in-law to support him, Lotte has never even put the six-room charge in his eyes, and now he really feels the taste of being under the eaves of people.

It stands to reason that Lotte has a new big backer behind Ye Zhizhou, but unfortunately the Great Song Dynasty emphasized that officials restrain each other, and a decree of Zhizhou needs to be signed by three people to be executed.

It can be seen that although Lotte is from Ye Zhizhou, he is not treated well in the state government.

In contrast, Lotte felt that Ye Zhizhou, the state governor, was not as majestic as Chen Zhixian.

Lying on the desk in a daze, Lotte looked out the window at the birds flying in the sky, looking at the leaves that fell on the ground by the autumn wind, and remembered the days when the scenery was peaceful.

"Mr. Le!" Just when Lotte was bored, the doorkeeper walked in and said with a smiling face.

"What?" Lotte asked listlessly.

"Someone sent a post to Mr., please come to the banquet in the evening!" As he spoke, he handed over a post.

took the post and opened it, Lotte's eyes swept over, and asked, "Who is Li Meiniang in Xiguan?" ”

"Mr. doesn't know Li Meiniang in Xiguan?" The outer hall disciple who passed the word was surprised.

Hearing this, the scribe who was sitting on the table opposite Lotte and was writing straight stopped laughing, looked up and said curiously: "Li Meiniang from Xiguan, that Li Meiniang who costs more than ten yuan for a night's stay?" ”

"Exactly!" The man answered, with a lewd and helpless look in his eyes, and sighed: "A small year's work and food silver is not enough to stay overnight at Li Meiniang's place!" ”

Another official smiled and said: "Forget it, Niu Er, although you have less money for food, you will take a lot of money from the door rules, and if you don't have the door rules money, whoever uses it will move you to send the message!" ”

Ignoring the banter of the two officials, Menzi Niu Er asked Lotte: "Mr. Le, do you want to go or not, the mother-in-law outside the door is still waiting for the little reply!" ”

"Mr. Le!" Before Lotte could speak, another disciple trotted all the way to the workshop, with a smile as bright as an old chrysanthemum, and presented a big red post and said: "This is a post sent to you!" ”

Lotte took the post and glanced at it: "Which lady is Shi Pan'er?" ”

"Shi Pan'er of the Smoke Willow Pavilion in Beicheng?" The scribe sitting opposite Lotte was shocked again, and opened his mouth and said: "This Shi Pan is also a famous trick in this city, and it costs nine yuan a night!" ”

Compared with the cold reception received in the state government, the enthusiasm of this trick is like fire, and the depression in Lotte's heart is swept away, and it is only half an hour before and after, Lotte receives seven or eight invitations from the trick.

Right now, these tricksters also know the news that Lotte came to Pingyu on an errand.

The city's famous people invited each other, and even recommended themselves to sit on pillows, and the news quickly spread in the state government. Not only the officials of the workshop, but also the other five room officials also ran over to see the excitement, looking at the stars of worship in Lotte's eyes,

What is the infinite wind and moon, what is the boundless blessing, the one in front of me is, I used to think that it was a rumor that Lotte was sought after by the tricksters, but now I really saw it.

In the envious eyes of the crowd, Lotte made a difficulty, where can so many tricks go by themselves.

Just when Lotte was embarrassed, I saw a person who looked like a steward walking into the workshop.

Seeing the man come in, Yu Zhisi greeted him and said with a smile: "Steward Lin came to the workshop, could it be that the Yang official has something to order?" ”

Hearing this, Lotte cast his eyes over, although this Yu Jiji is a junior official with no grade, but he is also an official and decent, and he can be so polite to this person, obviously the master of this servant is very.

The man returned the salute with his hand and replied, "My official has ordered me to come here and invite Mr. Le to the banquet tonight!" Then he said: "Dare to ask Yu Guanren, which one is Mr. Le, and the annoying officials will be introduced!" ”

The officer was helpless, and arched his hand towards Lotte: "Mr. Le, I'm looking for you!" ”

Steward Nalin gave a salute to Lotte, presented an invitation card with both hands, and said: "My family officials will set up a banquet tonight to invite Mr., and please invite Mr. to enjoy the light!" ”

Lotte was a little dazed in his heart, he really didn't know anything except Qi Liuyue in Caizhou. took the invitation and saw the signature on the invitation, Yang Song.

Lotte thought about it, this Yang Song is the owner of the Bo Art Garden, but he really has no friendship with this Yang official, what does the other party mean by inviting him to the banquet?

However, this Yang official's face can't be refuted by himself, and there are still seven or eight posts in front of him, and it is also a headache to go to which house to go or not, so it is better to respond to the invitation of this Yang official, and there is an excuse to push the invitation of these tricksters.

Thinking of this, Lotte arched his hand and smiled: "Trouble Lin Steward to go back to your house Yang Guanren, Le Mou will go to the appointment on time tonight!" ”

Seeing that he had finished his errand, Steward Nalin looked happy, saluted Lotte and turned to leave.

Menzi, who was waiting for Lotte to reply, asked, "Mr. Le, what ...... What to do with these invitations? ”

Lotte replied: "Tonight, Le Mou was invited by Yang Guanren, you go and push off the messenger with me!" ”

"Huh!" The two outer hall disciples answered and hurriedly walked towards the outer hall.

The clerk sitting opposite Lotte looked at the two men who left, and said with a smile: "Mr. Le is really the god of wealth of the two of them, and today's door rules money of these two guys is worth their January public food silver!" ”

Scribes, catchers, and Bai Ling also have grades among each other, like Lotte, and other clerks have a salary of three times a month, and there are always many fast catches in January, as for Menzi Bai Ling, only 700 Wen a month.

The eight-character yamen opens to the south, and there is no reason to come in without money, it is this reason. Don't say it's a complaint, it's just to go to the yamen to spread a word to meet someone, and it is absolutely impossible to have no money.
