Liu Cheng was packing up his things while calculating today's income. He didn't plan to just keep mingling like this, but was going to enter the nautical academy after earning enough money, he had already understood, as long as he could graduate from the nautical academy, he could enter the fleet and become a surveyor, the status was only below the captain, he could carry a lot of private goods, and the salary was also very rich, it can be said that as long as he ran a few voyages to the sea, he would earn a sum of money again, and then whether he was in business again or continued to work in the fleet, it all depended on his own mind.

Just as Liu Cheng had just finished packing up his things and was about to go to the soup and cake shop not far behind him to eat, he saw a young man with a dark face running towards him quickly, shouting as he ran: "Sir, please stay!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the young man rushed to Liu Cheng's stall, and said while panting, "First ...... Sir, can you pause the stall closure, the boy has an urgent letter to write? ”

Although Liu Cheng is down, he is a good person, he has always been convenient for himself, and it won't take long to say another letter, so he smiled at the moment: "It's okay, you said I wrote, let's hurry up, otherwise I won't agree to this belly." ”

Hearing what Liu Cheng said funny, the swarthy young man was a little embarrassed, and helped Liu Cheng put the pen and ink away at the moment, and then said what he wanted to write, but after Liu Cheng heard the other party's words, he was stunned for a moment, and he forgot to write a letter at the moment.

It turned out that this swarthy young man was writing a letter to his eldest brother in his hometown in Jizhou, and the content of the letter was very simple, asking his eldest brother, who had been studying in his hometown, to come to Taiwan, because teachers were being recruited here. Not only are they well paid, but these teachers are also under the jurisdiction of the newly established Institute of Education. Usually eat imperial food, and the status is the same as that of officials. In addition, the most important point is that after a few years as a teacher, if you perform well, then you may be promoted to an official.

Liu Cheng didn't pay much attention to it at first, but when he heard that he could be promoted to an official, he was immediately shocked all over, as a traditional scholar, he naturally had a strong obsession with becoming an official, but he tried repeatedly in Datang. He was discouraged and began to go into business, ready to become a wealthy businessman, at least so that his wife and children would not suffer with him anymore. However, from the bottom of his heart, he is actually very resistant to the profession of a businessman.

It is precisely because of this that Liu Cheng reacted so much when he heard that the Taiwanese government was recruiting teachers, and the first few conditions were forgotten, but the condition of having the opportunity to become an official made him very moved, after all, this was his wish since childhood.

And he knows. Taiwan's official selection is different from that of the Tang Dynasty, all officials are promoted from small officials, and when he first came, Liu Cheng also thought about entering the government as an official. After a few years, he may be able to become an official, but he feels that it is a bit embarrassing to be a small official, after all, he is in Datang. None of the officials can be put on the stage, and the officials must be controlled by the superiors. He felt that he might as well be a free businessman, so he dismissed the idea.

However, the teachers recruited by the government are different now. Compared with the small officials, being a teacher is much more beautiful, and the treatment is better than that of ordinary officials, and there are also channels for promotion to officials, which is naturally a great opportunity for Liu Cheng, who has nothing now, if he returns to his hometown as an official in the future, it will be much more face-saving than being a businessman with empty money.

Just when Liu Cheng was stunned and thinking about his thoughts, the swarthy young man couldn't wait, and said a little anxiously: "Sir, can you write quickly, I'm still waiting for someone to bring the letter back!" ”

"Oh, good! I'm just going to write, I just thought about something, I'm sorry! Liu Cheng said a little embarrassed, and immediately began to write to the other party, with his literary talent, it was naturally a wave.

After handing over the letter to the other party, Liu Cheng asked the other party about the government's recruitment of teachers, and it turned out that this young man was also a smart person, and as soon as he heard Liu Cheng's words, he immediately understood, and immediately encouraged him to try, and also told Liu Cheng the location of recruitment.

Liu Cheng didn't expect to learn such an important news in the last business in the morning, and immediately felt that the depression in his heart was all dissipated at once, although he didn't know what conditions the government needed to recruit teachers, but he believed that with his own talent and learning, it was not enough to be a teacher?

People are in good spirits on happy occasions, and Liu Cheng is the same, and in order to save money during this time, he is also very economical in eating, but after hearing the good news today, he doesn't need to save anymore, after arriving at the soup cake shop, he not only ordered a bowl of soup cakes, but also let the store serve a few side dishes, as well as a pot of rice wine, and poured himself to drink.

After eating, Liu Cheng didn't go out of the stall in the afternoon, and stopped a carriage to rush to the Keelung Thorn History Yamen, the newly established Education Institute is opposite the Thorn History Yamen, it is a three-story building, and there is a small bulletin board in front of the building, which reads a series of requirements and treatment for recruiting teachers.

After Yoo Seung came to the education center, he stood in front of the bulletin board and looked at it for a long time, and after finally confirming the authenticity of this matter, his heart, which had just calmed down, couldn't help but get excited again.

When Yoo Seung entered the education center, someone immediately stepped forward to ask, and when he told the other party that he was here to apply for a teacher, the other party immediately became very enthusiastic. In fact, what Liu Cheng doesn't know is that in order to build up Taiwan's education system, a large number of teachers are needed, and these need to be recruited from the society, but because Taiwan's readers are really scarce, there are not many people who come to apply, so the education institute attaches great importance to the readers who come to apply.

The recruitment teacher was in a large conference room, and when Liu Chenglai came, there were already two people interviewing inside, but these two were middle-aged people in their forties and fifties, and one of them was a philistine, with a taste of careful calculation all over his body, and it seemed that he was probably a bookkeeper. The second was a little older, wearing a green cloth robe, and his appearance was clumsy and thin, and he knew at first glance that he was a scholar.

Liu Cheng was relieved to see that there were not many applicants who came to apply, although he had confidence in himself, he didn't want too many competitors.

Because it was just noon, and the interviewing officials had not yet come, the three of them introduced each other and chatted. This made Liu Cheng know from the conversation that the shrewd middle-aged man's name was Ji Lian, and he was indeed a bookkeeper as he guessed, and this time he was here to apply for an arithmetic teacher, and as for the other older scholar, his name was Xu Qing, and he was a private school teacher, and this time he was here to apply for a Chinese teacher.

"By the way, Brother Liu, what kind of teacher are you applying for?" After introducing his situation, Xu Qing also asked.

"This ......" Liu Cheng was also stunned after hearing the news, he rushed over after hearing the news, until he saw the sign outside just now, he knew that the teacher was also classified, but he was only happy at the time, and he didn't have time to think about this problem at all, so he didn't know how to choose for a while.

That Ji Lian was an extremely shrewd person, and he knew what was going on when he saw Liu Cheng's face, and he was also a warm-hearted person, so he immediately opened his mouth and persuaded him: "If you want me to say, Brother Liu had better be a Chinese teacher!" ”

"Oh, why is that?" Liu Cheng asked with some puzzlement.

"Hehe, Brother Liu doesn't know, according to the inside information I got this time, we need a lot of teachers in Taiwan this time, but there are few Taiwanese, and orthodox readers like Brother You and Brother Xu are even rarer, and this time the most recruited are arithmetic and Chinese teachers, among which the arithmetic teacher can let us people who are rough enough to fill the number, but the teaching of Chinese is not an orthodox reader like you, so now there is a shortage of Chinese teachers, as long as they can be applied, the treatment or anything is not to be said for the time being, But you can choose the place where you teach, even if you stay in Keelung, it is not difficult, where it is like us, you have to go wherever you are told to go. ”

When Ji Lian said this, he shook his head and sighed again and again. It seems that he is dissatisfied with the fate of the arithmetic teacher. And Liu Cheng didn't expect that there would be such twists and turns, and He Qing next to him was even more surprised, he didn't expect that he was really right to apply for a Chinese teacher, if he could stay in Keelung, he could take his family from his hometown to live.

Just when the three of them were chatting, the interviewing official finally came, and immediately asked the three of them to come in for interviews in order. Because the current recruitment is the most basic elementary school teachers, so there is nothing too difficult, just ask the other party's place of origin, age, work experience, etc., and then ask some professional knowledge, as long as it is not too bad, you can apply.

Ji Lian has been a bookkeeper for many years, and it is very simple to apply for an arithmetic teacher. And Xu Qing was originally a private school teacher, which made the examiners very excited, and their favorite was this kind of person with educational experience, so they almost didn't ask much, and just let it go. As for Liu Cheng, after he told him about the previous few times he went to Chang'an to take the exam, he immediately made several examiners look at him with admiration, after all, not everyone can go to Chang'an to take the exam these days, first of all, he must go through the state and county examinations, and then go through the recommendation of the assassin history, and since Liu Cheng can participate in the Chang'an scientific examination several times, this is enough to show his talent.

In this way, all three of them came to the interview, but this is not the end, after they passed the interview, the chief examiner told them that there would be a three-month emergency training to teach them what to teach and how to deal with problems while teaching.

Originally, Liu Cheng was still worried that he had no teaching experience and was worried that he would not be able to teach children well, but now he heard that he would need training before he could take office, so he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and believed that as long as he studied during this period of time, coupled with his own talents, he would definitely be able to show his strength in Taiwan's education system.
