Further back, the answer sheet of "The Theory of the Datang Honorary Lordship System", as well as Lu Jiang's "Theory of the Development of the Tang Navy and Navy" have all successfully passed the evaluation, especially Lu Jiang's masterpiece, which basically popularized the basic knowledge of the navy for the main and deputy examiners, and won a lot of praise, so it was naturally unanimously passed. There is only one answer sheet of "Theory of Naval Warfare", because Lu Jiang's pearl and jade are in front, it seems too thin in comparison, although Lin Feng tried his best to fight for it, but in the end he only got four votes and lost.

So far, three of the four "sword goes sideways" answer sheets have successfully passed.

After that, the chief and deputy examiners still picked up the persimmons and came first, starting from the "how to ensure that a war is only profitable and not lost" answer sheets, which only have twelve copies. In the eyes of the vast majority of examiners on the scene, this question was originally a strange question, a deviation topic, after everyone raised their hands to vote, and finally five relatively reliable answer sheets were passed, and the answer sheet that completely copied Lin Feng's business war discourse won a unanimous vote in everyone's tacit understanding.

Now it was the turn of the answer sheet on the relationship between business and agriculture, and the atmosphere in Shidaozhai suddenly became a little tense again.

When the administrative officer finished reading an answer sheet that expounded that agriculture should be the mainstay, supplemented by commerce, and continue to emphasize agriculture and suppress business, many examiners showed a deep expression and were ready to vote directly, at this time, Lin Feng stood up.

Seeing everyone's doubtful eyes, Lin Feng smiled and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, Lin understands this point of view very well, because I myself also think that a country has no agriculture and is unstable!" However, I also believe that a country is not rich without business!

To use a less appropriate analogy, agriculture is what we rely on to eat and drink soup, while commerce is what we rely on to eat meat and drink wine! Just like all of us adults, if we only rely on money, we can only live tightly, but if the family has some business, we should be able to live a prosperous life! Whether it's officials or ordinary people, everyone wants to live a good life, doesn't they? ”

When several deputy examiners heard Lin Feng's analogy, a knowing smile appeared on their faces. Since ancient times, it has not been easy to live in the capital!

Lin Feng didn't pause, and then said: "Ladies and gentlemen, Lin is here to give you a practical example, even if it is for adults to relax and relax when they are nervous."

Our agricultural planting in the south of the Yangtze River is mainly rice, and it is temporarily calculated according to the output of four quintals per mu of land, which is already a relatively high figure at present; According to two seasons a year, one acre of land totals about 800 catties a year; Ploughing, planting, harvesting, and hulling, at least two people are required to work throughout the year; We estimate the price of a pound of rice according to the price of eight cents, not counting the input cost, not counting the food of the family, and it is only worth six and four when it is full; According to the calculation of ten taxes and one tax, the state can earn a maximum of 80 catties, which is 640 yuan; However, do you know how much a pound of rice is sold to the Central Plains where rice is not produced? ”

Lin Feng looked around and said loudly: "Twenty-one articles! If it is a disaster, hundreds or hundreds of texts are possible! In addition, there is another figure, the foreign strange fragrant rice bought by overseas merchants can be sold for 30 wen per pound in Jinling City, but do you know how much it costs in the place of origin? Four pennies! It is not uncommon for a merchant ship to sell rice for two months and earn thousands of yuan, and the state can easily enter hundreds of yuan according to ten taxes.

This is exactly the actual operating rule of society that Lin recognizes: if you stick to your own field, you can only take care of food and clothing; Through commercial activities, our country's grain is greatly abundant, and the merchant has made a lot of profits through business, and he himself has led to the development of other products by purchasing other products! If the business is a little lively, the country and society can live as a whole, which can be described as a good and a hundred good, why not do it?

The essence of a businessman is to communicate with each other and complement each other. Since ancient times, no country has been able to rely solely on agriculture to become rich and powerful! If we can arouse the passion of the people for doing business, our country will be rich, the people will be rich, and other things will naturally be easier to do! ”

Among the examiners present were those who participated in the Datang Debate Competition, but there were also those who had not, and Lin Feng also wanted to take this opportunity to once again emphasize his idea of being a rich country in business.

The official positions of the examiners present are not low, and they think about major international and domestic matters every day, where have they really thought about this kind of small matter of food and clothing, they all showed a fresh and curious look, and nodded unfreely.

Only Wei Cen snorted coldly, stood up and said, "If the skin doesn't exist, the hair will be attached?" Agriculture is the skin, and commerce is just a hair. If there is no agricultural production, where will there be commerce, Lord Lin should not cover the whole and confuse the public! ”

Just when everyone looked at Lin Feng nervously, afraid that he would choke on fire again, Lin Feng smiled and arched his hand at Wei Cen: "Lord Wei, Lin has something to say, just to ease the atmosphere for everyone, I believe that you must have your own thoughts." Lord Wei, don't mind! ”

It's just a false alarm! Several examiners couldn't help laughing, and Wei Cen sat down stupidly.

Situ Zhouzong, who was also smiling, looked at the sky outside the window, got up and announced that today's evaluation is over, and he will evaluate it again tomorrow!

Lin Feng returned to the house with ease, and sure enough, he found that Han Xizai was already waiting in the study, but this time Lao Han's mood was obviously much more relaxed, and he was chatting happily with Lu Jiang, Shu Ya, and Wu Qiao.

"Yo, you're very busy here! However, it is not as lively as when we mark the papers! Lin Feng greeted warmly, and then briefly introduced the lively events in today's marking. Now, because Lin Feng is familiar with those close forbidden troops, and Zhou Zong's requirements for them are getting looser and looser, they no longer set foot in the study.

After listening to it with a smile, Han Xizai put the teacup in his hand on the table, and said with a smile: "Zhishan, compared with the excitement in the court today, your excitement is nothing to be seen!" ”

"Oh, Brother Han, please speak!" Lin Feng was a little anxious.

"Ha Lu Ha!" Han Xizai first laughed loudly, and it wasn't until he saw Lin Feng get up and wanted to beat him that he said, "I can't help but laugh when I think of the scene in the court today!"

At the beginning of the early dynasty, Li Hongji, the king of Yan, was the first to stand up and proposed to implement changes at the local level and do his best for the development of the Tang Dynasty. As soon as King Yan said this, the court was shocked, but as soon as His Majesty opened his mouth, the court was completely stunned! ”

Lin Feng couldn't help it, got up and punched Lao Han hard, and shook his fist a few times in front of him demonstratively, signaling him not to sell Guanzi, hurry up.

Han Xizai rubbed his aching shoulder with his hand while smiling happily, ignoring Lin Feng's threat at all.

"Well, Ji'er has a heart, Chongguang happens to have such an idea, your brother is so motivated, I am really pleased!" Just when Lin Feng blew his beard and glared, Han Xizai finally laughed enough, stood up, first bluffed his face, and then suddenly turned into a full smile, learning Li Jing's words on the spot!

Lin Feng immediately laughed and fell, pointing at Han Xizai without speaking.

"I was standing at the back of the darkest and had no way to see King Yan's expression, but I observed that his whole body froze all at once! At that moment, I wanted to laugh out loud with joy! Han Xixi danced and gestured.

"No, is it-" Lin Feng suddenly thought of a time detail, pointed at Lao Han and asked.

"Yes, our Royal Highness King Zheng is definitely a smart person, he entered the palace overnight yesterday, and before rushing to the court this morning, the father who pestered him agreed to his three requests! This is what I specially found King Zheng's companion Wang Shenming to ask after I went down to the court. Han Xizai was so happy that he paused for a moment, and then said, "Your Majesty agreed to King Yan's request on the spot, and the specific state to go to will be discussed later; Of course, he also agreed to King Zheng's request to study at the Academy of Sciences. Now, no one in the court takes the initiative to go to the Academy of Sciences! ”

It's a big deal! Lin Feng was also very excited, and immediately ordered Lu Jiang and the others, who were inexplicably listening, to prepare wine and food, and to have a few drinks with Han Xizai!
