Chapter 131: Hope (I)
Lin Qingwan shook her head, "Every year after the summer harvest and autumn harvest, the grain price will be reduced, and then it will rise again in the spring. ”
"But first the war in the Southern Han Dynasty, and then the influx of displaced people, and now Daliang directly participates in the war, the price of grain will rise in the beginning of spring, and it is reasonable to rise faster in the event of a war. We don't think that just because it's rising too fast, it's being controlled. ”
The price of grain in Daliang has always been on the high side, because the overall environment is like this, the country is divided, and there may be war at any time, and it is difficult for grain prices to stabilize and fall.
"How did my aunt see that?"
"The analysis is reasonable, and the analysis with data is reasonable, and I will show you something when I get home."
Lin Yubin scratched his heart and lungs, but now they live in the old mansion, and they will not go back until the Lantern Festival, so they can only keep their temperament down.
In Lin Qingwan's words, "Spend the holiday with peace of mind, and don't think about other things." ”
Lin Run didn't bring his three nephews back to the clan until the evening, and when he heard that Lin Qingwan was returning to the clan, he didn't even go back to his own home, so he directly led his three nephews over to greet her.
Lin Ling, Lin Jia and Lin Ji are the main combat forces of this Ming Jing Examination, the three of them are good at reading, but their talent is insufficient, they have all reached the championship, they are not particularly outstanding among the brothers, and their grades are only in the upper middle.
This is true among the clan, let alone outside.
To be admitted to the Jinshi, fame is the first step, they have worked hard for many years but the results are not good, and they don't want to wait any longer, so this time the patriarch mentioned that people should go to the Ming Sutra, and they decided to go after discussion.
Otherwise, if you wait any longer, I'm afraid that you won't even be able to pass the Ming Jing exam.
The three of them had also met Lin Qingwan before, but they all came with the brothers to say goodbye, and it was the first time they met alone.
Although the other party was younger than them, the three of them couldn't help but be nervous.
It is too difficult to enter the Shike, and the Lin family doesn't know when it will take to get a middle lifter, so she attaches great importance to the children who take the Ming Jing exam.
She personally asked them about their homework.
The three of them didn't expect this to happen, their backs tightened, and they subconsciously looked at the patriarch.
The patriarch smiled and said, "Your aunt is a famous and talented woman, and even your uncle once sighed to herself, so you should learn from her." ”
Xie Erlang is a famous talent in Jiangnan, Wenlin often says that Xie Er, after Lin Jiang, is talking about him.
It can be said that Xie Erlang is the best among his peers, and the three of them admire him very much, so they look at Lin Qingwan with blazing eyes.
Lin Qingwan said with a smile: "I haven't read for a long time, and I can't compare with you scholars, but I just remember a few words, so I just take the test casually." ”
Lin Qingwan lowered her head and groaned for a moment before starting to ask questions.
The main test of the Ming Jing is the Sutra and Moyi, so the questions and answers are simple and clear.
After Lin Qingwan arrived in this era, she spent a lot of time reading every day, especially in the anthologies that have been lost in modern times, she not only reads, but also memorizes them.
If she doesn't die in the future, she will definitely go back, she is a historian and knows the importance of these anthologies.
The history of this world has been different from the world she is in since the middle of the Tang Dynasty, but the anthologies left before the middle of the Tang Dynasty are the same.
Not to mention anything else, how much has only one copy of "Zhou Yi" lost in modern times?
Knowledge is not lost until it is imprinted in the mind.
Therefore, even if Lin Qingwan does not have the memory of Sister Wan, her own twenty-four years of knowledge accumulation plus the reading in the past two years are enough to test them.
The Ming Jing is not difficult, the main thing is to test the memory, even if Lin Qingwan is out of the way, they only think a little and answer it, but Mo Yi lost one or two points from there.
Lin Qingwan bowed, "If you work harder in the past few months, you should be fine by April." ”
The three of them listened with their heads down.
Lin Run also thinks so, "I took them to meet Lu Da today, and I got some guidance, I think they can not only win in April, but their ranking should be good." It's just a place to go after passing the exam......"
Lin Qingwan lowered her eyes and said: "Jiangnan is rich, and the Lin family is based here, if you can stay in Jiangnan, it will be good." But the imperial court will not arrange all people in Jiangnan. ”
Even if the Ming Jing background started as a official, the imperial court would not let the Lin family install so many people into the officialdom in Jiangnan.
Lin Qingwan looked at the three of them and asked, "Do you have a place you want to go?" ”
The three of them glanced at each other, bowed their heads and said, "The nephews listen to the elders." ”
Lin Qingwan smiled, "Jiangnan can only leave two people at most, and the rest of the people will go out, either in the Central Plains, or in the north, in the west, or even in the places that have just been defeated from the Southern Han Dynasty." ”
The three of them moved uneasily.
Lin Run groaned: "Although the outside is not as good as Jiangnan, the danger is greater, and the opportunity will be greater." ”
Lin Qingwan bowed, "This is exactly the truth, especially the one in the south, where the war has just passed, and everything has to start again, which is very difficult, but if it is done well, it will be a great achievement." The Lin family is weak now, and there is only a limit to what they can do to help you, but it is still possible to prevent your credit from being swallowed up. ”
Lin Qingwan looked at them with blazing eyes, "If you pass the exam, which of you wants to go south?" Who wants to go to the Central Plains, and who wants to stay in Jiangnan? ”
Lin Run saw that the three of them were sweating on their foreheads, so he couldn't help coughing lightly and said, "It's too early to say this, you still have to pass the exam first......
"Fifth brother, only if you are prepared, you will be fine, it will be too late to think about it when they pass the exam." Lin Qingwan looked at the three of them: "Do you think it's best to stay in Jiangnan?" ”
"No," Lin Jia finally raised his head, looked at Lin Qingwan and said: "Those who stay in Jiangnan will definitely be stared at, and they may not be able to monopolize their merits, but if they make mistakes, they will definitely be found out, and then magnified and become a weapon to attack the clan." Therefore, those who stay in Jiangnan need to be steady, but steadiness means being cautious, it is difficult to make mistakes, but it is also difficult to make meritorious contributions. Maybe he will be a small official for the rest of his life. ”
The corners of Lin Qingwan's mouth curled slightly, and she asked, "Then are you willing to stay in Jiangnan?" ”
Lin Jia glanced at the two clan brothers, pursed her lips and said, "No, I want to go to the capital." ”
Lin Qingwan bowed slightly, looking at Lin Ling and Lin Ji, "What about the two of you?" ”
Lin Ling looked at Lin Ji and said, "Brother Ji is the youngest, he chooses first." ”
Lin Qingwan also looked at Lin Ji.
Lin Ji's fists tightened and loosened, and finally took a step forward, lifted his robe and knelt in front of Lin Qingwan, looked up at her and said, "Auntie, I don't want to take the Ming Jing exam." ”
Lin Run frowned and looked at him unhappily.
Lin Qingwan bowed slightly to him and encouraged him to continue.
Lin Ji breathed a sigh of relief, clenched his fists and said, "I, I want to join the army!" ”
Lin Qingwan was stunned, Lin Run was even more stunned, and asked, "What do you say you want to do?" ”
Lin Ji pursed his lips and said: "I want to go to the southern expeditionary army, five uncles, sister-in-law, my Lin family's Lin family army once dominated the world, defeated the Liao people, and subdued the Great Chu, why can't my Lin family children go to the army to make meritorious contributions?" ”
