The silver in Xie Qiao's hand is not much.

Shuiyueguan needs to maintain its operation all year round, and there is a lot of loss.

She doesn't take all kinds of jobs, so Shui Yueguan has a good reputation in Yunjing, but there are not many incense.

It's really that there are too few people in the view, and they can't be busy, which leads to a great shrinkage of the money they earn.

The money I brought with me this time was almost six or seven thousand taels, which looks like a lot, but in fact, there are many places to spend.

She is not in good health, she is very weak, even if it is because of various souls, but her body still has to be replenished.

Ginseng has been eaten as grass since she was a child, and the old man also prescribed her a medicine for positive yang qi, and several of the medicines are very expensive, such as ambergris, one or two heavy ones cost forty taels of silver!

In addition to her own medicine money, Nobita's food is also worth a lot of money.

Some of the insects that Nobita eats are dried insects collected from the bottom of the mountain.

There are also some small insects that she caught by herself and fed some dansha to grow.

Dansha can nourish the spirit, calm the soul, and is in response to the fire virtue, and belongs to the essence of the sun and the moon The ore vein is collected, so it has the qi of Zhengyang.

The dansha she uses must also be of the highest quality.

Although the insects can't eat much, she also needs it to practice drawing talismans on weekdays, and it adds up to a lot of consumption.

In general, she is also a poor ghost.

But when they met for the first time, she didn't want to make Xie Niushan's silver.

Although Xie Niushan is her father, this father's life is indeed bitter, and he can save a little.

"What kind of people does the Royal Academy accept? Is it only money and office? Xie Qiao asked.

Pei Wanyue also looked at Xie Niushan curiously.

Xie Niushan thought for a while: "I don't know much about this, anyway, I only know that your younger brother and sister didn't pass the exam at the beginning, so they can only give money." ”

"I know." Xie Pinghuai cautiously raised his head and spoke.

"Trouble my brother to solve his doubts." Xie Qiao said with a smile.

Xie Pinghuai's face flushed slightly.

"The children of the families of officials above the third rank do not need to be assessed, and they can directly enter the academy after the age of eight, and the children of the concubines have to wait for the examination after the age of ten, but the content is very simple, as long as it is not a straw bale rice bucket, and most of them can enter if they do not learn and have no skills."

"If the children of officials below the third grade want to enter, in addition to buying qualifications for silver, they also take the exam after the age of ten, but the exam is slightly more difficult, similar to the imperial examination for children."

"Not only do the children have to take exams, but the tuition fees are also twice as expensive."

"Ordinary people can also enter, but they are more demanding, either they give a lot of money, or they are smart enough or recommended by officials of more than three grades."

"There is a slight difference between women and men...... Male students are admitted only once a year, between the ages of 10 and 25, and for women, after the age of 10, they can take exams on a fixed day every month, but if they get married, they are not allowed to go to school. Xie Pinghuai said very carefully.

Xie Qiao said that he understood.

The Royal Academy, where there are not many people who really want to study.

I mostly want to go to gilding.

There must be many princes and grandchildren here, and those who have no official positions but have money will naturally try their best to send their children in at all costs, and it is good to hold a hair.

"Do you need to be recommended by officials with more than three grades? Then, if not, how much silver will it cost? Pei Wanyue suddenly asked, her voice a little eager.

Uncle Xie is only a fourth-grade official!

Moreover, she is not biological yet, so she is only among the children of ordinary people!
