The Ming Jing exam at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty was not too difficult.

If you say that you want to get into the Jinshi, then maybe it will be a little more difficult.

In view of the fact that Yao Yuanchong and Zhang Renqing only applied for the Ming Sutra, therefore, the reliable passing this time can be regarded as barely acceptable.

"And what is this second question for?"

After the two came back from the exam, Li Chong also asked a little gossip about what this question was.

The two of them said: "This second question is the most urgent thing in Datang today?" ”

Li Chong said: "Isn't that a question specifically for you?" ”

The two said: "So in this exam, we all feel lucky." ”

Li Chong: "You have already read the history books of the two Han Dynasty, according to the history books of the two Han Dynasty, what to do next, it should not be difficult for you at all." ”

The two replied seriously: "That's right. ”

Li Chong: "What about the third course?" ”

……

In the palace.

Obviously.

Because the answers of Yao Yuanchong and Zhang Renqing are highly similar, this naturally attracted the attention of Li Chengqian and the examiner.

Merely......

When he saw that it was his teacher's two sons-in-law, he was immediately relieved.

And......

He also said to the examiner in charge of this exam: "On this answer sheet, almost all of them are words of persuasion, which is extremely rare. I don't know, I thought I had done all these things. ”

After hearing this, the chief examiner and other officials also smiled awkwardly, and then replied: "The officials just read that almost all of the articles of these two people were admonished, so they admitted each other." After all, be prepared for danger in times of peace! There are not many people in Datang who can think like this now. ”

Then Li Chengqian said: "Then you think it's better to give them what officials to give them at the beginning." ”

Examiner: "This ......"

Subsequently......

The two were directly awarded a position by Li Chengqian to supervise the imperial history.

Although this position is relatively easy to offend people, it is undeniable that it is relatively easy to get promoted.

When the time comes, when you have made any contributions, you will be promoted to the history of serving the emperor, so that you can be transferred to your side justifiably.

Of course, you may also say that there is no emperor in this world who would want to find two people to take care of himself.

Unfortunately......

Li Chengqian is such a person.

After all, compared to the peace of the world, he now hopes to hear the advice of the contrary ear, otherwise, there is nothing to do in his hands, which makes him feel a little uncomfortable.

And also......

Li Chengqian also felt that they couldn't say anything bad about themselves.

Li Chengqian still has the self-confidence in this point.

Of course!

There must be something wrong with directly bypassing the ministry to designate an official position like this.

It's not a big problem, though.

When encountering this kind of talent who likes to persuade, can he still be allowed to become another magistrate?

Of course, it is necessary to make the best use of things and make the best use of talents.

……

And so it went on for two days.

Heard about the position arranged by the imperial court for the two.

Li Chong also thought to himself, don't be too capable of the two of you in the future, otherwise, don't make the whole dynasty go toe-to-toe with their family at that time.

This Qing official and counselor is actually a kind of consumable.

Take it when you need it, and take it off when you don't need it.

Li Chong had to worry about the future of the two, no, it should be their fate in the future.

After listening to Li Chong's words to them, the two also looked at each other.

Because isn't it good that this loyal king serves the country and asks for his life for the country?

The position is low, but to be able to present your words to Your Majesty, this is actually something that no number of people can ask for.

Many people like Pei Xingjian, at the beginning, could only be a warehouse manager at most.

If there were no other people to help him, it is estimated that he would still be the same Cangcao who joined the army until he died.

Among them, in the history books, Pei Xingjian has a very close relationship with the eldest grandson Wuji, Chu Suiliang and others.

Li Chong can only say that it is natural.

What if it's a transition.

Maybe you will work for two years and then change positions.

The official positions of the two sons-in-law have been settled, and in the future, there is no need to gnaw at the old age, and they should be able to support themselves.

Just when Li Chong's side finally let go of a big stone in his heart.

Cochin this side.

In terms of maritime trade, Li Tai also made a very significant breakthrough.

"So much pepper!?"

Li Tai looked at the boatload of pepper, which was hard currency before Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty, but the pepper placed in front of him now was the same as not asking for money.

His son Li Xin also replied: "Does my father think it's bad? ”

"I don't think it's bad, it's just ...... How much was this pepper worth before, and where did you get that much pepper back? ”

Li Xin said: "Back to my father, this is transported back from Tianzhu." In Tianzhu, this thing is actually not worth much money at all. Just take a horse of silk from us, and you can bring a boatload back. ”

The others were also shocked when they heard this.

Moreover......

A bold idea has already crossed their minds.

If you ship all these peppers back to Datang and sell them......

So they can't make money crazy?

Meanwhile......

There were three ships from the country of Cochin, and at this time they also followed the large and small islands in the south all the way to the harbor in the north of Australia.

Of course!

They weren't sure at first that this was the place.

It wasn't until they saw the legendary rat as tall as a man appear in front of them, still chewing grass in its mouth, looking at them, as if they were also looking at their strange things that came out of nowhere, that they had to believe that they should have arrived at the legendary destination.

With a wave of the leader's hand, in less than half an hour, a gazelle kangaroo almost as tall as an adult was subdued by seven or eight strong men, and was tied up in front of the leader.

If it weren't for the fact that the other party suddenly slipped and fell when he was running away, it is estimated that a group of them might not be able to catch up after chasing for a long time.

Then the leader stepped forward to check for a bag in front of it.

Take a look!

"How come there is no bag!"

Could it be a mistake?

But just now they did seem to see that there were some wallabies in the front bag.

In order to find out the truth, next, they went to catch another one.

Through this comparison, we know that the one with the bag should be female, and the one without the bag should be male.

Now that they've been found, it's almost time to go back.

I also collected some animals and plants that can only be found here.

The ninth year of Yuanheng, winter.

The flotilla returned to Cochin with the two kangaroos they had caught.

And Li Tai never imagined that there would really be a mouse in this world that grew so big.
