Chapter 197: The Ancient Version of the Civil Service Examination

"That's okay..."

Mr. Zhou touched his chin and thought carefully, "The job exam is not in a hurry, we can let out the news first..."

"The famine in the north has been solid for more than half a year, and the people in the north have walked and fled, and the rest are ordinary people who have no skills..."

"It's difficult to recruit some scholars who are officials in the world among these people!"

Mr. Zhou stretched out his hand and pointed to the southeast and southeast directions, "We can put our eyes on these two sides..."

"Xuzhou has always been a rich place, the people don't have to worry about their livelihoods, and there are naturally a lot of scholars, so we can let the caravan go over there!"

Mr. Zhou's eyes rolled, and his mind had already begun to figure out how to "deceive" the talents there.

"Great idea!"

Yun Shu slapped excitedly, not to mention that the ancient elite class was willing to raise staff!

Boy! She is only responsible for making a start, and the rest of the family will make the arrangements clear.

"High-ranking officials, transparent and fast promotion channels, ideals and ambitions, we have arranged them clearly, I don't believe that no one comes!"

"In a word: if money doesn't work, talk about ideals, and if ideals don't work, draw a big pie, it's just a fool!"

"Haha..."

Han Li suddenly raised his neck and laughed loudly, "Madame's words are excellent! ”

"All people seek in the world is wealth, power, and thoughts, and wealth cannot confuse their hearts. Then use the right, and the right can't make it bend the waist, then there is only the idea! ”

"It is the ultimate ideal of most students in the world to use all what they have learned and read on the people and bless the people without worrying about food and clothing."

"Yes!"

Mr. Zhou clapped his palms excitedly, "The imperial court has not had a spring festival for three consecutive years, let's just have a big one!" ”

"The spring festival time is too short, obviously it's too late, so let's have an autumn festival!"

The more Mr. Zhou spoke, the more excited he became, and he walked around the table several times excitedly.

"Let's first set the required positions and the content of the exam, and then spend half a year to vigorously publicize..."

"The words of the post... If, according to Madame, the whole county will need about a few thousand men..."

Mr. Zhou thought as he paced, "I'm afraid it's difficult to recruit so many famous talents at once..."

"Wait a minute..."

Yun Shu was dizzy by him, "Autumn is in September, right?" Is it in time? ”

The main reason is that the information transmission here is inconvenient in ancient times, and a message cannot be transmitted to a county in ten days and a half.

If there is not enough time for this news to ferment, Yun Shu estimates that few people will come to take the exam.

"And..."

"Who said to recruit famous talents?!"

"We can actually relax the requirements for academic qualifications appropriately..."

"For those with higher positions, Xiucai can naturally do it, but for those officials with lower positions, we can relax some requirements!"

Yun Shu motioned for Mr. Zhou to sit down and then speak in detail, and the latter touched his nose and obediently sat down in his seat.

Isn't he too excited!

He has a hunch that once this recruitment method is launched, it will definitely go down in history!

He will then be a witness, even an examiner...

Thinking of this, Mr. Zhou was so excited that he couldn't help himself.

Han Li didn't let it go, but he was deep in thought, and if he hadn't taken the initiative to reveal it, it would be difficult for others to see something on his face.

The better the mood of others, the better the smile on his face, but he is the opposite, the better he is in the mood, the more serious the expression on his face.

At this time, the expression on his face was very serious, and this expression, which was different from his usual expression, had already attracted Yun Shu to glance at it quietly several times.

He was so serious, could it be that he had a different opinion?

Yun Shu was made nervous by Han Li.

"Madame... Please continue..."

Mr. Zhou picked up the beautiful pen on the table, pulled a blank piece of paper and began to record these thoughts.

Seeing that Yun Shu stopped for a long time and didn't speak, he couldn't help but urge.

"Oh..."

Yun Shu put away his thoughts and continued: "In fact, the affairs that the officials at the bottom have to do are very simple, and they can only master simple knowledge. ”

"The positions we recruit account for the majority of these officials, not to mention showing talents, even children can be competent..."

"Besides, I hope this exam can be completely released..."

Yun Shu hooked the corners of his mouth and dropped a bombshell again.

"What does it mean to be completely liberal?"

Han Li frowned and looked at Yun Shu with a serious gaze.

"Completely let go..."

Mr. Zhou's pen tip paused, and he couldn't help but look up at Yun Shu.

"That is to relax the restrictions on students, whether it is farmers or merchants, or people who have been restricted from taking exams..."

"Do special things in special times, this is not the time to pick your mouth..."

Although Yun Shu's face was light, he was actually a little apprehensive in his heart.

After all, she didn't know much about the social situation here, and she was afraid that if she did so, she would touch the core of certain interest groups, and thus be attacked and suppressed.

She just put forward such an idea, can it be done, how to do it? These are all up to Mr. Zhou, Han Li and the others to decide.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with ruling with her hands, and it highlights that her wisdom and martial arts are not...

Mr. Zhou and Han Li didn't speak, frowning and seriously pondering the possibility.

Yun Shu didn't bother them either, and left them time to think intimately.

"Madame..."

Pei Lan took advantage of the time to add tea and quietly leaned into Yun Shu's ear and said, "Mrs. Xu sent another post, saying that she invited you to enjoy the plum blossoms..."

This Mrs. Xu is the wife of Liu De, a wealthy businessman in Xincheng, since their husband and wife came back from Xuzhou half a month ago, this post has not been broken every day.

Not only the post, but also countless beautiful utensils that come with the post.

Such as silk, porcelain, gold and silverware, these are common, which can be of high value.

Yun Shu's eyes were hot when he saw the wealth and strength, if it weren't for the fact that in order to attract more businessmen and people back to Xincheng, Yun Shu would have to pick up a handful of wool!

Yun Shu sighed, "I don't know where the plum tree came from in this Xin City..."

The original county guard of Xincheng was a layman who only knew how to accumulate wealth, and he would not appreciate such things at all.

Not to mention that there are no plum trees in Xincheng, there are not even a few pines and cypresses.

Don't ask why, just ask the county guard doesn't like it!

"This slave knows..."

Pei Lan said excitedly, "They have been sending heavy gifts to the county guard mansion for half a month, and you haven't accepted them, so they feel that you are an elegant person..."

"It's not just plum trees, I heard that they also found someone to get pines and cypresses from a village, and even bluegrass of various grades is also being transported on the road..."

"I heard that Liu De disliked a plum tree and was a child, so he made a merlin out of the house..."

"This is the time when the plum blossoms bloom, and I heard that the red and white plums are full of branches, which is always attractive..."

Pei Lan's eyes were shining, "I heard that Liu De intends to hold a poetry meeting, and the posts are scattered like water, and literati and ink writers are invited to come to enjoy the plums..."

"Poetry Society? Literati? ”

Yun Shu touched his chin thoughtfully, this is a good opportunity for publicity...
