But if you have experienced one or two failures, you will be less reckless when you act later.

gave the master's father fifty and a half taels of money, and Zhang Xuezhou figured out how to ask for an official correctly.

In the final analysis, this is still the number of ways to donate money mentioned by Sang Hongyang, but compared with hundreds of gold and thousands of gold, the appetite of small officials is not so big, and they can barely get through with some money.

"I remember you said that you heard about thirty or fifty dollars from someone else, who is that other person?" Zhang Xuezhou asked in a low voice.

"That's it...... As many Confucian scholars said about this, I went in and listened! ”

After the master's father received the money, he was happy and replied happily.

"Some of them have ten or eight, some have about twenty, and the most is thirty or fifty, these people found their names when they posted the list, and they whispered how unhappy they were, and said that it was impossible for those who didn't have money to even screen, and the more money they could, the better the position they arranged!"

"That's it!"

"I heard that the first batch of people who don't have money are particular about this aspect, even if they hang one and a half taels on the bamboo slips, they may be hired, and everyone knows this method later, and it's not okay if the money is less."

"So that's the case," Zhang Xuezhou nodded: "Do you know when the imperial court will conduct the third talent search?" ”

"I don't think I said it!"

The master father grabbed the half tael in his hand.

He looked at it in a daze for a few seconds, only to feel that the half tael he had asked for had lost so much joy.

If the imperial court does not seek talents, even if he knows the way to seek officials by stuffing half a tael of money in bamboo slips, then he will not be able to become an official.

"But the imperial court will definitely recruit talents again!"

The master father cheered himself up, and then looked at Zhang Xuezhou with a blank eye.

This made Zhang Xuezhou take a few steps back.

"I'm not free now, and I don't want you to pay me back, and I don't have anything worth selling, let's not see you in the future!"

Zhang Xuezhou waved his hand and quickly withdrew from the thin crowd.

This made the master father open his mouth, and the idea of following Zhang Xuezhou to eat some white food with a dead face could not continue.

"Didn't I just tell Ning Cheng and them the news about you, then I can't die for you!"

Thinking that he and Zhang Xuezhou have only met a few times, the master father Yan feels that he and Zhang Xuezhou have no feelings, and it is normal for him to betray each other when he is in trouble.

And what Zhang Xuezhou explained, what he also did, did not lose Zhang Xuezhou.

A man like him is a man of his word, and his character is already very noble.

He thought about it for a while, and finally felt that Zhang Xuezhou didn't see him as Zhang Xuezhou's loss.

Of course, Zhang Xuezhou is not too bad, after all, he also gave him fifty half taels that he didn't have to pay back.

"I hate rich people!"

Thinking that fifty and a half taels of money is likely to be a drop in the bucket for people like Zhang Xuezhou, the master father was a little indignant in his heart, and even more hated why he didn't ask for more before.

"I want to be rich!"

Hate is hate, but the goal of the Lord Father is indeed to become rich.

He was fed up with a life without money and was not willing to continue it.

"I don't know when Your Majesty will carry out the third recruitment," the master father said in a low voice: "There are so many places in Chang'an City that need money, it is difficult for me to sleep on the street!" ”

As long as you become an official, you will have money, and if you have money, you can eat well and eat well, and there will even be all kinds of cultivation techniques, pills, and magic weapons.

He pondered for a while, and finally found a place to sleep on his stomach near Jing Zhaoyi's mansion to save his strength.

On the other side, it was Zhang Xuezhou, who was in a state of interest, who got rid of his master's father, and went to Xishi to find Rong Tianding and others with a worried face.

As the third-ranked character in the adult examination province, Zhang Xuezhou didn't expect that he would fall off the list twice in a row.

This kind of thing can't be completely attributed to bad luck, but the change in Zhang Xuezhou's way of life has brought about social discomfort.

How could he have thought that relying on the side door methods that he got from Zhang Qian was unreliable, but that it was the king to put money in the bamboo slips recommended by the officials.

"If someone else clips fifty, then I'll clip a hundred!"

When passing by the shop selling bamboo slips, Zhang Xuezhou also made a slight gesture, and then bought a large roll of bamboo slips.

"Brother Dongfang!"

"Brother Hongyang!"

When they returned to their own columns, Rong Tianding and Xu Yuan were not there as usual, while Sang Hongyang was waiting for the grain collection to return.

The millet used for seed in the column is divided into several piles of equal size, and it can be seen that the Sanghong sheep are indeed extremely boring.

When Zhang Xuezhou appeared, Sang Hongyang suddenly felt a lot more energetic, and directly stretched out his hand to say hello.

But he also had a strange look on his face.

There is no reason for this, Zhang Xuezhou fell off the list again, and he did not find the word 'Dongfang Shuo' in the list of newly hired officials as usual.

Of course, it's not too bad.

Naturally, I can't be happy if I don't get hired, but it's not all right when I get hired.

Xindi is extremely concerned about recruitment, as long as the resumes submitted are viewed one by one.

When the first batch of people were hired, the new emperor once complained that 'all the related households that formed parties and ran private businesses were stuffed in, and I don't know how many people here could be used in the future'.

When the second batch of people was hired, Xindi complained again, "Another group of bribes and money people came in, these people are a little clever, but they are used in places that should not be used, this wind cannot be long, and you have to check it carefully."

Obviously, the new emperor is very clear about recruiting talents and officials.

Although Sang Hongyang didn't understand why the new emperor didn't deal with the first batch of people, he knew that the new emperor would inevitably deal with the second batch of people, which included not only the officials who were reviewed, but also the officials who bribed and sent money.

Although Zhang Xuezhou did not become an official, he was a clean white man and would not induce these disasters.

"Brother Dongfang, but he's sullen for the sake of his official position," Sang Hongyang asked in a low voice.

"Exactly!"

Zhang Xuezhou didn't mind, and nodded directly.

"I heard that most of the people hired in the second batch of people put some money in the bamboo slips for officials, but unfortunately I was ignorant at the time," Zhang Xuezhou sighed: "Now I can only wait for Your Majesty's third recruitment!" ”

"Your Majesty will definitely recruit talents again, Brother Dongfang can just wait" Sang Hongyang said with a strange face: "But Brother Dongfang must not be sensible!" ”

"What do you mean? Ask for advice! ”

Zhang Xuezhou was stunned.

He had already bought a large roll of bamboo slips, and was ready to stuff a hundred to two hundred and a half taels of money in the bamboo slips to ask for an official, but Sang Hongyang's words obviously did not recommend this.

Believe in the master or believe in Sang Hongyang, this kind of thing is not difficult to choose.

The master father listened to the news at the bottom, while Sang Hongyang took the high-end route and knew the news in the palace, but if the other party did not recommend it, then this matter really would not work.

"I don't know completely, but the third group of people is likely to find out some typical erections" Sang Hongyang said in a low voice: "I estimate that all these sensible bamboo slips will be sent to the palace, and none of the latter will be recorded, and even these people will not have a chance to be official in the imperial court in the future!" ”

"Like this?"

Zhang Xuezhou gasped.

He only felt that Sang Hongyang was really a nobleman.

If it weren't for the friendly reminder of the other party, he would not have failed to become an official, but would have completely cut off his hope of becoming an official.

Although this is just Sang Hongyang's speculation, these speculations from the other party will not come out of thin air.

If Zhang Xuezhou really learns from the second batch of people to do some 'smart' things, he won't be able to end up.
