In the county official's room, Yang Han looked at the report submitted by the county school, put it on the table, and looked at Zhao Xiuwen with some dissatisfaction.

"I don't object to the county school cleaning up the bastard students, I don't seek to be motivated, and I occupy the resources of the county school, so it should be cleaned up.

It's just that I'm worried that Zhao Xuezheng will hurt the innocent and clean up some students who originally wanted to be motivated? ”

Zhao Xiuwen bowed down and said: "Qi Yang Xiancheng, it took half a year to prepare this list, and it took three years to collect materials, including the results of previous examinations, the evaluations of various professors, their attendance, and so on.

It can be said that these 90-odd students can't even memorize the minimum "Analects" and "Mencius", and they have made no progress in the past three years, and even regressed. ”

Zhao Xiuwen saw that Yang Xiancheng did not object, so he continued: "They don't work, they add a huge burden to their families, and they don't seek to be motivated, occupying the resources of the county school, I think they should be cleared out of the county school, and the opportunity should be left to students who really want to study but don't have the opportunity." ”

Yang Han's eyes were a little complicated, and Zhang Yi told him that these more than 90 students gave Zhang Yi 1,300 yuan a year, of which Zhang Yi transferred 500 yuan to himself.

Removing these students from the county school is cutting off their own financial resources!

But it is imperative to expand the enrollment of county schools, Yang Han thought about it, and signed and printed the expansion book.

He handed the enrollment expansion to Zhao Xiuwen, and said with a smile: "I completely agree with the enrollment expansion, but we must be cautious in cleaning up the students, I ask the school politicians to talk to each of them, to ensure that they leave voluntarily, I don't want these students to go to Pingjiang Mansion to march and make trouble." ”

Zhao Xiuwen sighed secretly for a while, which of these bastards was willing to leave voluntarily?

This Yang Xiancheng is using the method of 'dragging' again.

In desperation, he had to bow down and salute, "The official obeys the order!" ”

．．．．．．．

The students of the four colleges all gathered in a dining hall to eat, and at dinner, 200 students gathered together and shouted noisily, and the dining hall was particularly lively.

Lu Youwei held a vermilion lacquered wooden plate full of food and sat down beside Fanning.

"Fanning, I'll tell you a piece of news, the county school supplementary student exam has been decided, and the exam will be around May 20."

Fan Ning had been waiting for this news for a long time, and in order to get rid of the second uncle's worries, he promised the second uncle that he would be responsible for making up lessons for Mingren and Mingli, and strive to let their brothers also be admitted to the county school.

At the beginning of the year, there were rumors that the county school is likely to expand its enrollment again in May.

The county school only enrolls 200 students a year, and the number of students enrolled is too small, and it has been criticized by parents.

Since the end of last year, Zhao Xiuwen has set out to clean up a group of bastards who have been stranded in the county school for a long time and are unwilling to study hard, and ordered them to leave the county school before the end of March.

Fan Ning's fourth uncle, Fan Tongzhong, was one of the bastards who was cleaned up, and the county school couldn't stay any longer, so he began to think of a way out.

There were at least 90 people in this group of bastards, and when they were cleared, many dormitories and classrooms were vacated, which created conditions for the expansion of enrollment.

Therefore, the county school decided to conduct a supplementary examination in May and recruit 50 new students.

Fanning was overjoyed, "That's good news!" ”

Su Liang munched on the steamed bun and said vaguely: "I have a cousin who didn't take the exam this year, he reviewed at home, and originally planned to take the exam next year, but now it seems that he doesn't have to wait for next year." ”

Duan Yu took a sip of soup, put down his chopsticks, wiped the soup stains on the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, and smiled at Lu Youwei: "Now you can get your wish!" ”

Fanning looked back and asked in surprise, "Do you want to take the test again?" ”

Lu Youwei nodded, "I'm an auditor, I have to pay one hundred and eight taels of silver, the burden on my family is too heavy, if I am re-admitted to the county school in May, I can save one hundred taels of silver for my family." ”

"So what are you going to do, drop out of school and go home to review?" Fanning asked again.

"If I drop out, my dad will beat me to death."

Lu Youwei scratched his head a little embarrassed and said, "I plan to find a cheaper cram school and go to class at night." ”

Fan Ning's heart moved, he thought about it and smiled: "You go to look for it first, I really can't find it, maybe I can help you make up for it, it's free." ”

Fan Ning originally planned to give Mingren Mingli a make-up lesson, and if there was one more Lu Youwei, it would not be in the way.

Lu Youwei was immediately overjoyed, "Okay, if I can't find it, I'll ask you!" ”

．．．．．．．

At noon the next day, Fanning hired an ox cart and headed for the town of Longbridge.

The ox cart slowly passed by the second uncle's former Lao Fan grocery store, the sign of the store had been removed, several laborers were dismantling the shelves in the store, and a middle-aged man was complaining loudly beside him.

The second uncle's family has quit the rent and moved to Mudu, and this middle-aged man should be the landlord and is ready to rent the house again.

On the other side of the shop, a group of adults gathered at the entrance of the Chai Kee grocery store, and when the ox cart passed by, they saw several old men complaining with angry faces.

"The price will increase by 30% from noon, and this store is too dark."

"What people say is that the preferential price is over, and the original price will be restored."

"But this original price is more expensive than Lao Fan's grocery store! I knew that I would have gone to Lao Fan's grocery store. ”

．．．．．．

Fan Ning shook his head secretly, and used low-price dumping to squeeze out the second uncle's shop, and now of course he has to restore the original price, and even raise the price, which is the only way to compete in business, and it has been the case since ancient times.

The ox cart went forward a little further, and slowly stopped in front of a large courtyard surrounded by a long high wall, and in the middle was the entrance and exit gate, on which a sign read:

The government-run Changqiao Town School.

That's it, giving the coachman ten cents, Fanning jumped out of the ox cart and walked towards the school.

The door of the school was open, and no one was guarding the door, but Fan Ning entered the school, and an old man behind him chased after him, "Little official, who are you looking for?" ”

Fan Ning was dressed in a white satin scholar's suit, wearing a gauze hat, and holding a folding fan, looking like a child of a rich family, and the old janitor was very polite to him.

"I'm looking for Fan Minh Ren, Fan Ming Li, a pair of twin brothers, does the old man know them?"

Hearing these two names, the old janitor suddenly looked stupid.

"Those two guys, who wouldn't know each other here? You wait! ”

The old janitor walked briskly towards the school, and in a moment, Akihito and Mingli suddenly appeared out of nowhere, like two ghost bats.

The two grabbed Fanning's arm one left and one right, and his fan was snatched away by one of them.

"A-Ning, lend me the topaz ring on your hand for a few days!"

"Aning, why isn't your fan made of ivory?"

Fanning snatched the fan and knocked it on the heads of both of them.

"It's been more than half a month since I entered the county school, and you two bastards didn't even come to see me?"

"Isn't it just a little nervous?"

The other grinned and said, "If you don't lend us some plates, we'll go see you now." ”

"Let's go! I'm going to treat you to lunch. ”

"Second brother, this kid is not sincere, we only came here after we ate him."

"Like, why don't you invite us to dinner?"

Fan Ning said angrily: "You have eaten, I'm still hungry, okay, do you want to go?" ”

"Go! Of course go! ”

"There are pigs that are not slaughtered, and they are still kept for the New Year?"

The two brothers were babbling gibberish, hugging Fanning and walking out of the school.

There were three small food shops opposite the school, and Fanning found a slightly cleaner food shop.

Fanning ordered a fried fish rice and a plate of salted dried bamboo shoots, and the two brothers each asked for a plate of pork noodles and a plate of roasted eel, and the three of them ate it.

After lunch, Fanning asked for three bowls of herbal tea, and then talked to them about business.

"I asked the school administration in the morning, and in mid-to-late May, the county school will add fifty county students, and this is your opportunity."

Fanning, of course, hopes that his two cousins can also go to the county to study.

In late January, the two brothers went to the county school together, but they both failed the list, they were three years older than Fanning, and now they are only in the upper echelons of middle school, that is, the fourth grade.

With their current level, the county school entrance examination is still a little worse.

Of course, the study gap can be made up, the key is whether the two want to go to county school?

Akihito and Mingli glanced at each other, and the two of them suddenly smiled and said, "You mean that we can get two places, and we can go to the county school without exams?" ”

"Nonsense!"

Fanning glared at the two of them, "Of course there is an exam, and it is a single-plank bridge crossed by thousands of troops, and almost one out of twenty people is admitted." ”

The two immediately wilted, and Mingli muttered: "I still have to take the exam, doesn't it mean that I didn't say it?" ”

Akihito's eyes lit up, "A-Ning, have you prepared the cheats?" ”

"I don't have any cheats, but I'm going to make up for you!"

Fanning calculated the time in his heart, "There are still two full months to go, I will spend some time and energy, and finally bet on the questions, make up for your results, and strive to be admitted to the county school." ”

Akihito and Mingli looked righteous and awe-inspiring, and said in unison: "How can you spend time and energy, just bet on the question in the end!" ”

"No way!"

Fan Ning categorically rejected the two, "If you don't make up for the foundation, even if you bet on the question, you won't be able to pass the test." ”

．．．．．．．

Ignoring Mingren and Mingli's protests, Fanning set the first make-up class for tomorrow night.

Now that she has decided to start a cram school, Fanning also needs to prepare.

Fanning then got on an ox cart and went to the bookstore in the Temple of Literature.

Fanning looked at the shop sign: 'September Scholar', this is it, last time he took a copy of "Pingjiang Mansion Chronicles" here.

"Fan Shaolang, long time no see!"

As soon as he entered the door, he saw the smiling face of the owner of the bookstore, Fan Ning bowed and saluted, "I'm here to trouble the director again today." ”

"You're welcome, Fan Shaolang can just say what you need."

"That's right!"

Fanning asked tentatively: "I want to buy the county exam questions of the past years, how much can I buy?" ”

"Huh! Fan Shaolang came to the right place, there are only two places in the entire Wu County with the most complete county test questions, one is the county school, and the other is the disdain, Fan Shaolang, please come with me. ”

Fanning followed Dong Yuanwai to the back warehouse, where various books were piled up, and two guys were sorting out a new batch of books.

The floor was also full of books, and Fanning had nowhere to put his feet, so he had to open a few books to reveal an open space before he could reach inside.

"Bookshops are similar everywhere, but in fact, selling books is not profitable, just for interest."

Dong Yuanwai also walked cautiously, always reminding Fan Ning, "Fan Shaolang, go this way, watch out for the stairs next to you, don't hit your head!" ”

The two went up to the second floor of the warehouse, and on the second floor were stacked unsalable and expired books, such as government records, county records, exam questions from previous years, and so on.

Dong Yuanwai dragged out a dusty bag of marijuana, and said with a smile: "The county test questions and solutions in this county for the past 20 years are here, and they are useless, if you want it, I will always sell it to you for all the money." ”

Fanning was overjoyed, he opened the sack and rummaged through it, and asked, "What about this year?" ”

"This year's one is downstairs, I'll give you a copy when I get back."

Dong Yuanwai was a little puzzled, "Fan Shaolang is the first county scholar, and he has already entered the county to study, why do you still need county exam questions?" ”

Fan Ning smiled and said: "In mid-May this year, there was a supplementary examination for county schools, and I had two cousins who wanted to take it, but their foundation was relatively weak, so I wanted to take the time to make up for them and strive to let them be admitted to the county school as well." ”

Dong Yuanwai's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "I have two friends' children who are also going to take the supplementary exam in May, Fan Shaolang, see if you can ...... it"

Fan Ning scratched the back of his neck, he was really a little embarrassed, it was relatively simple for him to make up for Mingren Mingli, the time was arbitrary, and the place he was going to put in his dormitory.

But if you still add other people, it will become a commercial make-up class, how to collect the fee, and you have to find a place, and the time is fixed, which is very troublesome.

"Outside of the directors, as far as I know, there should be a lot of cram schools for the county examination! I remember that there is a cram school for Liu Daru County Examination in the Wenyuan Pavilion Inn opposite the county school, which is very famous! ”

Dong Yuanwai shook his head, "Liu Daru's cram school is not good, only four of the more than 50 students were admitted this year, and last year was also very bad, my friend's children are all students of the county school affiliated school, and they have to attend classes during the day, and they want to find time to make up for classes at night." ”

Fan Ning hurriedly smiled: "I'm not a professional make-up class, at most once every five days, I'm afraid it's not the kind they want." ”

Dong Yuanwai's friends have been asking him to find a powerful student to make up the class, Dong Yuanwai thought of Fan Ning at that time, but he was embarrassed to speak.

Today, since Fan Ning himself mentioned this matter, of course Dong Yuanwai will not let go of this opportunity, and he sincerely raised expectations to Fan Ning again.

"It doesn't hurt to make up classes once every five days, I won't let Fan Shaolang make up classes for nothing, according to the highest price of make-up classes, half an hour and 100 yuan, in addition, the make-up class is arranged in my bookstore, I don't charge any fees, what does Fan Shaolang think?"

Having said that, Fanning can't refuse anymore, two more will be two more.

He thought for a while and said: "I can only make up ten classes at most in two months, and since the director has provided a place, the money will not be collected, so I will do a favor by the way." ”

"Nope! No! ”

Dong Yuanwai hurriedly waved his hand, "My two friends are big families, a few times for them, it is a tea money, according to the rules, you must not be polite, you can set the specific time, I will inform them." ”

Fan Ning had no choice but to say to Dong Yuanwai: "Since Dong Yuanwai wants me to make up classes, I can agree, but I have to say ugly things in front:

First of all, I can't guarantee that they will be admitted to the county school, I can only do my best; Secondly, if the student's character is not good, I will not accept it, and I hope that the director will explain it clearly to their parents. ”

Dong Yuanwai said happily: "I will definitely make it clear, then the first class time ......"

Fan Ning groaned and said, "The first class time I made for my two cousins is three o'clock tomorrow night, so according to this time, the place will be gathered at the door of the bookstore." ”
