"It's ......"

"It turned out to be a righteous card!"

There is no need for Zhang Cai to explain in detail, the word Yimin is enough to arouse people's associations, and many people shouted out in surprise, which is of course mixed with a little lamentation, but no matter what mood it is, almost everyone present knows what the so-called qualifications are. 【】

In the previous fundraising, Nanzhen Fusi received nearly 500,000 stone of grain, which can be seen from the number of people who participated in the fundraising and the people associated with the fundraiser.

In the fundraising, Nanzhen Fusi was contrary to his generosity, and after accepting the food donated by the people, he did not repay the money, but instead issued a sign, and after recording the identity of the fundraiser, there was no follow-up.

Therefore, after the initial enthusiasm, many people also regret that they have been provoked by others and are too impulsive. Think about it, at the moment the price of grain in the capital is so high, I donated the stored grain, but I didn't get any return, how can I live in the second half of the year?

Many of the people who took the lead were complained, and some caused family disputes because of this, and some even wondered if they could go to Nanzhen Fusi to get the food back, if it weren't for Xie Hong's murderous reputation, maybe someone would take action.

Of course, there are many people who have a firm position, and those negative statements have not been able to dispel their enthusiasm, and under their infection, those who can't figure it out have slowly calmed down.

After all, a good thing has been done, and the next days may be very hard, but haven't they all been like this for so many years? The people were strong and comforted themselves.

There are even people who are fantasizing, thinking that Nanzhen Fusi has written down everyone's identities after all, maybe there will be something in return in the future, right? After all, the emperor and the marquis are very famous for their generosity.

However, even if they knew it in advance, no one would have imagined that they would get such a big surprise so quickly.

Qualifications, how many benefits are contained in these two simple words, it is difficult to measure, but anyone can see that under normal circumstances, the benefits obtained from this qualification are definitely not a few stones, or even dozens of stones and meters can be exchanged, it is not symmetrical at all, this is simply the same weight of silver in exchange for rice!

Therefore, most of the voices contain surprises, and those who lament are half businessmen.

Most businessmen are more shrewd, have more thoughts, and have more concerns when weighing gains and losses, so in the tide of fundraising, many of them are watching from the sidelines, and even more sometimes laugh at the fundraisers around them, exchanging grain for wooden cards, isn't it stupid?

So, as soon as Zhang Cai's words came out, their hearts were half cold; When they saw everyone cheering, Zhang Cai smiled and nodded, and finally confirmed it, they were completely dumbfounded.

For a few stones and meters, let a mountain of gold fly away from the eyes, how painful this pain is, people who have not experienced it will definitely not understand. Looking at the elated people around them, these smart people want to cry without tears, and after a long time, they are the stupidest, and they can't wait to find a crack in the ground to get in.

"Lord Zhang, can this qualification be changed to something else?"

That's right, the sea trade is indeed lucrative, like a mountain of gold, but not everyone will do business, and the Chinese people have a heavy local complex, and they rarely have the idea of leaving their hometown unless they have to.

Therefore, after the excitement passed, some people remembered this section, and from Zhang Cai's words and deeds, they also felt amiable, so some people had the courage to mention it.

"That's right, there is still an old mother to serve in the next family, and I really can't go to sea."

"No, I too, people say that my parents are not far away, if they go overseas, I am afraid it will take a year and a half to return home, how is this good?"

As soon as the words fell, people also nodded one after another, the Ming Dynasty did not value business, and there were few merchant traditions among the people, and most people were still content with their duties and were unwilling to go to sea to make money.

Those businessmen are all in a hurry, scratching their hearts and livers, and they are eager to jump over and snatch the signs of those who don't know what to do. What an opportunity! How can you not cherish it?

"The official's words haven't been finished yet, this gentleman might as well wait, and after the official has finished speaking, it's not too late to ask questions." Zhang Cai was really kind, and he didn't feel sorry for someone interrupting him, he smiled slightly, and continued:

"As this gentleman said, there may be some people who are reluctant to leave their hometown, but it doesn't matter, because the Hou Ye has been ordered by the emperor, and he has prepared a lot ......of choices for everyone, and he will listen to the official one by one."

"Oh ......" Hearing the following, people quieted down again, listening with bated breath, for fear of missing half a word.

"In order to protect the family and defend the country, the emperor will expand the size of the guards, everyone knows that in general, in order to ensure the innocence of the family, the guards have always only been selected from the children of military households, but if it is after the righteous people, it is not worse than the children of military families, so it is ......"

Hearing this, most of the people showed excitement in their eyes, but Zhang Sheng's angry nose was crooked. The Guards are the emperor's minions, and only those vulgar military households will be happy to send their children in, yes, but the military households have nothing to do with their innocence?

Those who dare to claim to be innocent, even if they are not from a family, they must be the most peaceful among the households! When did military households become higher than civilian households, and they had to be righteous people who had donated food to compare? How unreasonable!

Zhang Sheng wanted to shout loudly to remind the people not to be deceived, but when he looked at it, his eyes were full of sparkling eyes, and he just mentioned it to his chest in one breath, and he immediately leaked.

Obviously, these people are already dead set on saying anything, and looking at their fanaticism, if they go up and disturb them, they may be beaten by the group.

Fools who have not been educated by the saints are short-sighted, don't you see that the annihilation cannot last long, and the righteous scholars can achieve the ultimate victory? History is a lesson, and history can be learned!

With a silent cry in his heart, Zhang Sheng turned his head to look at those scholars again, intending to find some comfort from these scholars. Only these knowledgeable juniors can represent the future of the Ming Dynasty, which can be seen from their spontaneous gathering and angry denunciation of the party.

But the eye-catching scene made him very disappointed, just now they were still together, and half of the angry scholars had disappeared, and among the remaining people, there were also many hesitant faces, or their eyes flashed, and when they saw him look over, there were many people who directly avoided his eyes and retreated into the crowd.

Although it was only a part, not all of them, including the blue-shirted scholar who stood up at the beginning, the expressions on the faces of many scholars were still very firm, but Zhang Sheng was inevitably a little disappointed...... Disappointed? No, he was already a little desperate, including those who left, what his idea was, he knew very well that he was planning to follow Zhang Cai's example and join the annihilation party.

These scholars have not yet become officials, of course, they can't do the same thing as Zhang Cai, but they also have channels, that is, the political and legal college, through which they can enter the court to participate in politics, and they can also become local officials, which is much faster than the imperial examination.

This means that after the public opinion, even Shilin began to waver, Zhang Sheng felt a faint pain in his heart, and his eyes were black, they were all reading sages, how could they be so shameless? How can you ignore everything in order to become an official?

He kept telling himself in his heart to be strong, but gradually, he still felt that his consciousness began to blur, his body was also weak, and finally ...... He softened, and he didn't know anything about it.

"Zhang Butang!"

Zhang Sheng followed a lot of people around him, but no one knew his mental journey, seeing him suddenly fall, they were all shocked, hurriedly gathered around, pinched the people, patted the back, and used all kinds of first aid measures, but I didn't see the old man wake up, but a stream of blood flowed out of the corner of his mouth, which made people frightened.

"Eh, I said, don't make a fuss here, okay? Didn't you see what Lord Zhang was talking over there? In the midst of the chaos, several great Confucians suddenly heard a rough voice in their ears, looked up, and saw a fat man with a face full of meat, this person yelled at them impatiently.

"You Diao Min, do you know who this Lord is? Dare to ......" The Confucian scholars were furious, and someone raised his hand tremblingly and reprimanded angrily: "Aren't you afraid that Wang Fa will be ruthless? ”

"It doesn't matter who you are, this is Houdefang! It's the emperor's territory, don't you know if you have to queue up when you come in? You ran in without queuing, everyone was already very polite if they didn't drive you out, and they dared to put on a score, get out, and if you don't roll, I'll beat you! The fat man was not afraid at all, and as soon as he glared at his round eyes, he showed his fist the size of a sand bowl and shook it.

"yes, don't look at what this place is, get out, get out!" The crowd also clamoured.

Of course, the people are afraid of officials, if it was put a year ago, Hugh said that Zhang Sheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, even if it was a follower by his side, he could walk sideways in the capital, where would he put the small people in his eyes?

But now the world is different, seeing that these officials are in the same boat as Xie Hong, and the people are also hostile, plus they know that Xie Hong will support them, where will they look at these good faces who find fault and stir trouble?

Originally, seeing Zhang Sheng's age, he suddenly fainted, but there was no shortage of sympathetic people, but the attitude of those Confucians aroused the anger of everyone, so there was this scene of anger.

It's not fun to be angry, Zhang Sheng also brought some followers, but in the face of thousands of angry people, they were only left to tremble.

What's more, even if they can win against these people, they don't dare to make a move, don't you see that the people standing around are wearing flying fish suits and pressing embroidered spring knives? Those are all fans, Xie Hong's minions, in front of them to do it in front of the people, what is it that is not looking for death? The entourage could only lift Zhang Sheng, support a few Confucians, and fled with their heads in their hands.

After escaping from the distance, the shadow of the Royal Park could no longer be seen, and the group stopped, and several Confucians were sad in their hearts. They originally planned to refute the annihilation and show their heroic righteousness in front of the people, but in addition to Zhang Sheng's two sentences of fighting with others, they didn't even have a chance to say anything here, and they were driven away as annihilation.

"Diao Min, Diao Min! The wind of the world says, people's hearts are not ancient, heaven, open your eyes! ”

Looking at Zhang Sheng, who was unconscious again, maybe he had already arrived at the door of the door of the sages and saints, the great Confucians were sad, and couldn't help crying, crying and crying sadly, and one sentence exhausted the resentment in their hearts.

…… These people caused a stir, but the delay was not long, and the people quickly restored order, and their eyes were once again focused on Zhang Cai, even the scholars who caused Zhang Sheng to faint.

Zhang Butang is indeed very pitiful, but Zhang Shilang's words are more reasonable.

Think about it, for the natural disaster in Liaodong, the entire Shilin really rejoiced for several days, and then waited anxiously for nearly a month, and finally it was such a result. Zhang Butang, after you acquiesce, can we not tremble?

For the scholars who heard the bad news at first glance, this was simply a month after a break in the update, and finally looked forward to the update, only to find that the updated chapter turned out to be the eunuch announcement issued by the author, and at that moment, their hearts were cold.

At that moment, even the most determined scholars had such a thought flashed in their hearts, and when they heard the news of the Senate, their feelings could be imagined.

The big tree is about to fall, how can you blame the monkeys for finding a way out? History is a lesson, but history is also written by people, who knows if the way of the world is going to change completely?

Therefore, for Zhang Sheng's tragic situation, although they were a little unbearable in their hearts, they were not affected much, and at the beginning of the change, it was the king to work hard to collect information and try to seize the opportunity.

"Master Zhang, please continue, you are at the key place...... "The fat man is still the same fat man, but when he faced Zhang Cai, his face was smiling like a flower, his eyes were full of expectation, and he also brought a little prayer.

"Hehe, that's easy to say." Zhang Cai smiled, he was very insightful of the fat man's thoughts, eighty percent of him was a son in the family, looking forward to joining the Guards, otherwise how could he have such a look? Hou Ye has been sharpening his sword for two years, and now, it is finally the trend of the times...... "After the righteous people or the righteous people, anyone over the age of fourteen and under the age of twenty-four, as long as they are not the only son, can go to Xiyuan to participate in the selection and select the best ......"

"Wow! That's great! ”

The popularity of this preferential policy is much higher than that of the maritime trade qualification, and serving as a guard in front of the Son of Heaven may not earn much money, but the glory and future that can be obtained are completely incompatible, and those who have young children in the family are cheering.

"My lord, when I donated thirty stone rice, and I have two boys in my family, about the same age, but they are both over fourteen years old, can we ...... together" cheered for a while, and the fat man remembered another thing, his wish was that both sons had enlisted in the army.

Zhang Cai smiled and shook his head: "That's not good, the guards will go into battle in the future, the emperor is benevolent, and he can't bear to see the people's homes interrupt the incense, so there is this discussion, if two men are qualified, they can only accept one." ”

"Alas!" The fat man let out a long sigh, very disappointed.

"Lao Bao, don't be satisfied, this is the emperor's holy decree, it can't be changed, what are you pestering people to do with Lord Zhang? Besides, you're so sure that both of your boys can be qualified? You know, that's merit-based admission, can your kid do it? ”

Seeing that the fat man was still entangled, his companions all laughed and laughed sarcastically at him.

"Actually, it's not like there's no way, Brother Bao, I have a way, do you want to hear it?" A thin man came up and said mysteriously.

"Brother Sun, if you have a way, say it quickly, and I will definitely thank you afterwards." The fat man's eyes lit up, and he grabbed the thin man's clothes.

"This method is also simple, as long as you and your sister-in-law work hard, won't you have another man? Haha......" The thin man laughed, then reached out and patted the fat man's belly, shook his head and sighed: "I'm afraid your belly is a little hindered, in my opinion, this matter is difficult......"

knew that he had been tricked, but the fat man was not discouraged, he snorted angrily and said: "The hindrance of the fart, my waist and legs are not good, but my mother-in-law can!" You wait and see, this time next year, my old bag will hold a big fat boy to show you, look down on the fat man? Hum! ”
