Some new regulations are added to the recruitment examination every year, or some are partially revised, and today, the policies and regulations of the recruitment examination and the content of the examination will not change significantly.

Today's recruitment examination is divided into four levels.

There are two levels of county examinations, county examinations, state examinations and national examinations.

The national examination is divided into two time periods, the first examination is held in the autumn, and after the examination, you can take the final examination in the spring of the following year.

This is about the same time as the imperial examination, so it is also called the autumn examination and the spring examination.

The first place in the spring test is the champion, the second place is the list, the third place is Tanhua, and so on.

All officials at or above the county level are selected from the national examination.

Since the ninth year of Yuan Zhen, there have been very few people who have been able to elect officials with real power above the county order.

Therefore, the recruitment examination is becoming more and more important, and the people are paying more and more attention to the recruitment examination, and people all over the world are competing to study.

After public schools, there were a large number of private schools.

However, after all, there are only a small number of people who can pass the national examination, and with the popularization of education and the extension of time, talents are piled up, and the number of people selected from the national examination has begun to decline every year.

In addition to officials, the imperial court also needed a large number of officials.

Where do they come from?

Let's start with the three-level exam under the national exam.

County, county, and state exams.

Candidates must pass these three-level exams if they want to go to the national examination, but some candidates can only pass the county exam, county exam, or state exam.

Will they stop there for a variety of reasons, then they will have no future?

No, the imperial court also paved a way for them.

The operation of the county government, the county guard and the assassin's office, in addition to officials, also requires a large number of officials to operate at each level of government.

These officials must not only be literate and hyphenated, but also understand national policies, laws and regulations, as well as have a certain degree of moral and cultural literacy.

It is most appropriate to select talents from these levels of exams.

Therefore, candidates who have taken the county, county and state exams, if they don't want to continue to take the exam, they can choose to become officials at this time.

Of course, it does not mean that you can become an official immediately after taking these exams, these exams are just a stepping stone for them.

After knocking on the door, there will be another official exam, which is a targeted exam.

Zhao Mingming took his fake household registration and looked left and right, hesitating back and forth between the county exam and the state exam.

Zu Daozhong felt that she was too confident, and couldn't help but say: "You are only ranked ninth in the county exam this time, don't think about the state exam first, what if you can't pass the county exam?" ”

Zhao Mingming slapped the table and said, "I played abnormally because I was sick, and the ninth place is not my strength!" ”

Zu Daozhong still said: "We have to recognize our own shortcomings, anyway, we don't rely on recruiting talents to take the exam, your goal is to be an official, and the county exam is also fine." ”

Fan Lianyin: "You don't rely on the recruitment exam, but we have to rely on it, Tainu, don't listen to him, with your literary talent, even if you can't get into the top three, the national exam is still no problem, we will take the exam!" ”

Zu Daozhong: "But we didn't come out for the exam, but for the experience." ”

Fan Lianyin: "Exams are also a kind of experience. ”

Zu Daozhong's father is Zu Li, he himself has graduated from Taixue, and he is very good in martial arts and literature, as long as he takes the martial arts examination, he can immediately enlist in the army and be awarded an officer.

Moreover, with his family background, even if he doesn't take the martial arts test, he can also seek the lack of guards in the palace, so he doesn't have to squeeze the recruitment exam with others.

But Fan Lianyin is different.

She must take the recruitment examination.

Although her mother Fan Ying also has a knighthood for her, Fan Ying is extremely strict with her children, and Fan Lianyin has no second choice at all.

This time following Zhao Mingming out is also an opportunity for her, an opportunity to contact the recruitment examination in advance.

In this three-person exam, Fan Lianyin also scored the best.

She is now addicted to exams, and she especially wants to take the county exam and the state exam all the way, and it would be better if she could take the exam all the way to the spring exam.

Zhao Mingming quickly made up his mind, waved his hand and said: "Okay, let's go to the county exam, I want to enter the Xuzhou household, and it should be almost the same if I get the county exam." ”

Soon, reality gave Zhao Mingming a slap, saying that she thought too well.

Is it so easy to get into a house?

Although she passed the county examination and was also excellent in the official examination, she was still sent from the county to the county, not to mention the state house, and she didn't even enter the county house.

She was transferred back to her hometown - Houqiu County!

Zhao Mingming, Fan Lianyin and Zu Daozhong were transferred back to Houqiu County together and became three small officials in the poor Houqiu County Yali.

Because Zu Daozhong is good at kung fu and can learn criminal law, he became an errand hunter when he was transferred back to his hometown.

The clerk who received them looked at them suspiciously, "You are from our Houqiu County?" ”

Why wasn't he impressed at all?

The three of them hung their heads and replied, "Yes." ”

The clerk frowned, "Do you go to school in the first county, or in the second county?" Who proctored the county exam? Why am I not impressed at all? ”

The three of them followed their resumes, and the clerk flipped through their files and found that it was really a book from the county, and there was also the signature of the county edict on it.

His face looked a little better, and when he saw their sad faces, he asked, "You passed the county exam at a young age, why can't you think of going to the examiner's exam?" Work hard, pass the state exam to fight for the national exam, even if you can't pass the spring test, you can ask for an official after the autumn test. ”

"To be an official, you have been an official all your life, even if you have made great contributions by chance, a seven-grade county order is also the top."

Zhao Mingming drooped his head and said, "I'm going to be in charge, so I have to work, and I can't study anymore." ”

Fan Lianyin: "My family is patriarchal, and my mother said that she can only provide for me to come here, and then I want to study, I have to make money or marry myself, so that my husband can provide for my family, so I came out to work." ”

The clerk was not surprised, sighed, and looked at Zu Daozhong.

Zu Daozhong: ......

He blushed and said, "I, my family prefers my little brother, I have a big appetite and eat a lot, so I was kicked out." ”

Fan Lianyin explained for him, "He is a stepfather." ”

The clerk suddenly realized, looked at the three of them with a sympathetic face, took out their entry book and pressed the seal briskly, "Okay, you guys go separately." ”

The three of them took the employment letter and breathed a sigh of relief.

The three of them walked out of the office room, looked at each other, and couldn't help but burst into tears.

They really just chose a county as their hometown at that time, and they didn't think about coming back to work here, what about the future, they didn't have any acquaintances here, who transferred them back to their hometown, can't they be transferred to a neighboring county?

Zhao Mingming, who insisted on not going through the back door, also regretted it for a moment, "I hope it won't be discovered, everyone has been cautious recently." ”

Fan Lianyin: "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and then make excuses when it is questioned, the top priority is, where do we live?" ”

Of course, it is impossible for the three poor students in the eyes of outsiders to afford a house, so the three of them can only rent a house, and it has to be public rental housing.

The so-called public rental housing is the housing built by the imperial court to rent to civil servants and some poor students.

The regulations are similar, the rent is cheap, and the population is very fixed, so it is very popular with civil servants and students.
