Now that Chu Qiguang has reached the first realm of martial arts, then as long as Wang Chengwang recommends him, he will be able to enter the Yingluo Pavilion.

"However, it is not good to directly ask Wang Chengwang to arrange for me to enter the Yingluo Pavilion, and it is easy to show timidity and make him doubt my master's status. It's best to take advantage of Wang Cailiang. ”

At the same time, Chu Qiguang recalled the process of the imperial examination in the Han Dynasty.

The imperial examinations of the Han Dynasty, whether they were liberal arts or martial arts, were divided into three major examinations.

The first exam is called the children's exam, and the person who passes the exam is called Xiucai in the liberal arts and Wusheng in the martial arts.

After this step, even if you are registered in the court and have a structure, you can see officials without kneeling, and you cannot be sentenced when you are tried. In addition, he will receive rice offerings from the imperial court every month, and he can also enter the government school for further study.

Chu Qiguang secretly said in his heart: "When this big man reaches the step of Xiucai or Wusheng, even if he can talk to the Wang family on an equal footing." Basically, if you sell 1,000 Ergou, you can't get a showman. ”

The second exam is called the township exam, and those who pass the examination are called Wenju people in the liberal arts department, and Wuju people in the martial arts department.

The most important thing at this stage is that you can be exempted from some taxes and forced labor.

Its Chinese people can also enter Taixue for further study, and Wuju people can enter the northern and southern martial arts. Moreover, there are seats in the county, and the county cannot punish the crime if it commits a crime, and it needs to be reported layer by layer, from the county to the government and then up to the state level before it can be dealt with.

Chu Qiguang secretly said in his heart: "The people of the Han Dynasty are already half officials, and they are only at the state level...... It is almost equivalent to the provincial officials in modern society to punish crimes. And if you are lucky and there is a vacancy, you can directly become the adjutant of the county, and if you are lucky, you may even have the opportunity to become the county. ”

"If I am admitted to the Wuju people, the Wang family will come to scold me, counting on sending the land in my name to avoid taxes. If there are people in a county, the county can be regarded as meritorious in education and can be called a political achievement. ”

"If Xiucai is worth 1,000 dogs, then the person is at least 10,000 dogs. ”

Juren can be said to be very dignified in the county, and he can already be called a celebrity in the county, and he is also the strongest person that most ordinary people can see.

The third examination at the next level is to be held in Shenjing, the capital of the Han Dynasty, and is divided into two parts: the general examination and the palace examination.

Once passed, he will be a Wen Jinshi and a Wu Jinshi, and he can really be an official.

When it comes to the Jinshi, the worst starting point can also be a magistrate, which means that the worst starting point for the Jinshi is already a dream ideal.

"The Han Dynasty has reached the step of Jinshi, even if you mix it casually, you can end up in a prefect's office. In modern society, it is roughly equivalent to a high-ranking city official. Stomping your feet slightly, the whole Qingyang County is a big earthquake. ”

"If you know how to be an official, if you mix it better, and even before you retire, you can become a political envoy or governor of a state, then you will be the master of a state, which is probably equivalent to a high-ranking official or a high-ranking provincial official. One sentence can pull the entire Wang family up and down to fill the army. ”

"As for the central units at the top, the six ministries and nine secretaries and other national-level and vice-national-level real power positions, the Jinshi is just an admission ticket. ”

"The value of Jinshi starts at least 100,000 dogs. ”

Thinking of this, Chu Qiguang sighed and said: "Just by relying on the examination, you can get a city-level, provincial-level, and even a trace of national-level power. ”

However, Chu Qi felt a little awkward and unaccustomed just by imagining that those who studied literature and practiced martial arts could become civil officials, after all, on the earth where he was located, the feudal dynasty was mostly heavy on civil affairs and light on military force, and military generals rarely could do civilian positions.

But when I thought about it, the martial arts in this world also had to be tested for the scriptures, and after entering the Taixue and martial arts, the imperial court would teach all kinds of knowledge needed to be used as officials.

In fact, most of the content in the imperial examination is not helpful for officials, and the knowledge of various case processes, government decrees, and the imperial court system is either learned by the official family since childhood, or can only be learned after having fame.

It's equivalent to being able to take the civil service exam in the liberal arts and sciences. And this world is a little more popular to learn martial arts. ’

Thinking about it this way, Chu Qiguang was relieved.

After thinking about the situation of the imperial examination, Chu Qiguang returned to the problem at hand again.

"First of all, you have to pass the children's exam to become a martial artist. This requires two requirements: strength and qualification. ”

"In terms of strength...... According to the comprehensive information obtained by Qiao Zhi and the Wang family, in order to pass the martial arts test and become a martial artist equivalent to Xiucai, at least the strength of the third realm of martial arts is required. ”

"As for the qualifications for the children's examination, it has been monopolized by the squires and eunuchs in the county. That's why I need to join the Interior and get their recommendation. ”

Chu Qiguang muttered: "Strength and qualifications ......"

"The imperial examination is held every three years, and the most recent Wuke is in October this year, and it is now May, which means that there are still five months to go. ”

Chu Qiguang pinched his chin: "In the past five months, I not only want to get support and get a place to participate in the children's exam, but I also need to break through to the third realm of martial arts." ”

"Otherwise, we'll have to wait another three years. ”

Thinking of this, Chu Qiguang's brows furrowed, another three years of hard life, where did he wait so long.

Chu Qiguang set a goal: "We must take the martial arts exam in October this year." ”

Qiao Zhi said on the side: "The second realm of martial arts has a thousand powers, and the third realm has qi running through all four ends. To reach ...... within five months Even with your qualifications, it's a bit difficult. But fortunately, you have fooled a lot of silver from the Wang family this time, and if you use it all to buy a hundred refining paste, you should still have a chance to reach the third realm. ”

Chu Qiguang's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he said as if he had no intention of doing so: "I don't plan to buy the rest of the silver." ”

"Don't buy medicine?" Qiao Zhi wondered, "Why?"

Chu Qiguang said: "I plan to bet all my worth, buy grain at the bottom, and then sell it at a high price when the war is over." ”

When Qiao Zhi heard this, he immediately said urgently: "Copy the bottom, copy the bottom of your meow! You think this is the floor, but you don't know that there is a cellar under the floor, and there is a cave under the cellar!"

Chu Qiguang planned to test Qiao Zhi again, so he said: "Don't tell me anything, there is a bottom at the bottom, I am reckless in business, and if I earn it, I will be a maid and a concubine, and if I lose, I will find a landlord to pit it, and I will be reckless." ”

"You!" Qiao Zhi just wanted to answer, but suddenly endured it again, and secretly said in his heart: "It's not good to talk too much...... In case it affects the development of Chu Qiguang......

"But it's not a big problem for Chu Qiguang to be affected, right? If you don't say it this time, will you watch him go to the bottom?"

Thinking of this, Qiao Zhi said dryly: "Don't think about the bottom, this battle can't be fought." ”

Chu Qiguang said, "What do you say?"

Qiao Zhi said: "The imperial court will make peace with the wolf clan, and finally open the trade market. ”

Chu Qiguang's eyes flashed when he heard this: "It turned out to be a mutual market......?" It is possible to short the grain that is now rising in price. ”

Qiao Zhi glanced at Chu Qiguang speechlessly: "I said can you settle down a little......"

Chu Qiguang shook his head to himself: "It's still not good, behind the big merchants are all wealthy families in this county, and they are all guys with people in the court." shorted and made their money, I'm afraid I won't spit it out the next day. ”

Qiao Zhi hurriedly nodded in agreement: "Qingyang County is not an ordinary small county, there are many wealthy families in the county, and there have been governors, squires, and various officials in the imperial history. ”

Chu Qiguang sighed: "You still have to hurry up and find a way to get an official body, otherwise you will be tied to anything." ”

Qiao Zhi persuaded: "Yes, yes, your primary goal now is to attack the second realm of martial arts and make a thousand efforts." To achieve this realm, what is needed is water grinding kung fu, relying on medicine supplements, food supplements, martial arts cultivation, and the daily maintenance of the body bit by bit, to push one's flesh and blood to a limit, this is the second realm. ”

"You want to cross this border in five months, and you can't stop taking medicine. ”

Chu Qiguang touched his chin and said, "But even if I use all the remaining two hundred and sixty shadows to buy a hundred refining ointment, and use it once a day, it can only be used for less than ten days, which is still too slow." ”
