Chapter 55: Zhen Luo is the champion
Three years is not a long time, after all, this is an era of cultivation for all people. People www.biquge.info not only need to study, but also to work, and in addition to this, they also need to cultivate.
If the demons and demons are not eliminated for a day, the sharp sword hanging on the head of the human race will fall at any time. Therefore, even if it is for the worst, you have to improve your cultivation. At the same time, it is precisely because it is the era of cultivation for all people, so many things will use some simple Fa decisions. And a lot of manual labor also needs Wu Xiu to help, and then improve work efficiency.
After deeply exploring the potential of the human body, China's productivity is no less than that of modern times. In addition to the need to improve in fine processing, the efficiency of farmland water conservancy, bridge building and road construction and large-scale labor has been significantly improved.
A monk in the foundation building period can turn over a hectare of land even in a quarter of an hour. In terms of efficiency, it is no less efficient than large machines.
The life of cultivation began to merge into life, and people began to get used to this kind of life. In the past, a cultivator who was high in the sky can now become a cultivator himself, and there may be a difference in cultivation, but it is no longer so lofty.
It is said that putting cultivators on the altar will allow the common people to have less contact with cultivators. But at the same time, because of this, cultivators sometimes make ordinary people feel more awe, which is not a good thing for the imperial power.
It is true that the cultivation of the whole people will bring many troubles, such as the lack of resources for cultivation, or the tendency of social security to be turbulent. However, it is better to do this now than to fall by the imperial power.
Accustomed to this rhythm, the triennial civil service exam has become normal, maybe it is a little unfair for those who are older, but in this world, how many absolutely fair things are there?
It has been three years since the last exam, and the candidates who were on the list of the last civil service exam have now experienced the first evaluation. Some were upgraded, some were left unplaced, and some were transferred to new strongholds that had just been established.
Now that the territory of the Terrans has expanded again, the population has further increased, and more jobs need to be manned. But even so, the Chinese government still maintains the principle of preferring shortage to abundance, and candidates who are not on the third list cannot serve as civil servants.
Unlike the first time, the number of students admitted this time has increased, so more candidates have the opportunity to be admitted.
This year, not only Cao Cao's second son Cao Pi came to take the exam, but also Lu Xun, a side branch of the Lu family in Jiangdong, and Zhang Song, who originally came from the land of Bashu, was also among the scholars referred to this time.
There is also a difference, that is, there are also many female candidates this time, more than three times as many as before. It was probably Cai Yan's passing of the exam last time that gave these girls who were raised in the boudoir enough encouragement, so that now they have also walked out of the boudoir and began to enter the examination room.
Of course, in order to avoid any problems, the examination room has set up a special private room for female candidates to avoid any contact with men. You must know that there are daughters from official eunuch families, such as Cao Cao's daughters Cao Hua and Cao Jie, as well as Sun Jian's youngest daughter Sun Shangxiang, and two existences that even the examiner dare not offend.
When the private room was closed, even the invigilator couldn't help wiping a cold sweat and said secretly: Why are these two aunts and grandmothers here?
The process of the exam is naturally silent and serious, no matter what the identity of the other party is, the most basic order of the examination room, as well as the discipline of the exam, must be observed. It is true that the children of official eunuchs can get extra points, but if they still cheat in this way, then obviously the government is really not easy to recruit such people, and besides, this is also directly not taking them into account of the Education Bureau.
The Education Bureau is a subordinate agency of the Ministry of Human Resources and Education, and it is also a real state unit. If you don't take the Education Bureau seriously, at worst, you will despise the authority of the state, and you will cripple a person at this point, and there will be as many excuses as you want.
There are still three exams, but they have changed from three days to one and a half days. The reason is to improve the efficiency of the examination, especially the efficiency of document correction in government departments, so Chen Tao popularized quills and pencils on a large scale. Pencils can be used for daily notes, and general documents mainly use quill pens, which can be written in more than a dozen words with ink, which is quite convenient.
Of course, it does take a while to get used to changing from a brush to a quill pen, which directly leads to an increase in the price of the goose, but the efficiency is more than three times higher than before.
The duration of the exam was very short, about two and a half hours per hour, which was equivalent to two quarters of an hour in time. However, this can also test the student's temporary adaptability, and students who have made good grades in a very short period of time can also calmly deal with urgent things at work in the future, at least not so embarrassed.
Two days is like a dream for the candidates, but in the end, the time is a little tighter, and even many candidates have not had time to check the test papers. So that after the exam, I didn't have any bottom in my heart, so I could only ask my friends for answers to see if I could match some of them, which made me feel better.
This time is different from the last time, all the exam papers will be summarized, and then the results will be summarized after unified scoring, and finally the best candidates will be selected and written into the three lists.
Among them, the multiple-choice questions and fill-in-the-blank questions were not corrected by manpower, and they were handed over to the magic weapon of the Dharma Pavilion. Ironically, this is also a low-level magic weapon, but it has no protection and attack ability at all, and can only be used to mark papers.
It is precisely because of the machine spirit that this kind of work can be accomplished. It doesn't need to be too complicated, you just need to split it according to the answers you already know, and it is almost obvious whether you are wrong in choosing or judging or even filling in the blanks.
Only short-answer questions and essay questions need to be reviewed by the examiner, so Chen Tao mobilized more than 300 staff members to make every effort to correct them.
In the end, it took three days to complete the task as expected, so that all the scores were counted, and finally the list of the three top players was obtained.
It's just that in the name of the top three, the examiner had to ask Chen Tao for help.
"Since they can achieve this result, that is their strength, don't cold the hearts of these candidates again and again because of any male and female defense!" Chen Tao looked at the names of the three test papers and replied with a wry smile.
The emperor approved like this, so the examiner naturally didn't dare to say anything, so he could only fill in these three names.
On the fifth day, the list finally started to be posted, and it became a sensation! More than forty percent of the candidates on the list are actually female candidates! It is not surprising that the girls showed composure and composure in emergency situations, and at the same time they did not pass the civil service examination themselves, so it was natural that they had the opportunity to work harder than the male exams.
Zhang Song, Lu Xun and Cao Pi are not on the second and third lists, which means that if they don't have their names on the first list, then they will be named Sun Shan. However, according to their thoughts, he should at least be in the middle of the list, and Cao Pi even thinks that he may win the top of the list.
Who knows, when the first list was posted, the three of them were dumbfounded.
In the top three on the top list, there is not a single man! The three people on the list are: Zhen Luo, Qiao Wan (Da Qiao) and Mi Zhen. Mi Zhen doesn't say it, Qiao Wan is Chen Tao's maid, and Zhen Luo is Chen Tao's concubine, so people have to suspect that there is a shady scene! (To be continued.) )
