Village Chief Li, who was standing at the forefront, waved his hand and said softly, "Xiao Su, don't say these kind words anymore, it's not too early, let Li Hu and them escort you to the county seat." ”

Su Qi'an nodded, took a step forward, held Qin Ziyin's hand, and said goodbye to him, and the villagers who surrounded him were also quite interested, and retreated one after another, leaving the little couple to be alone.

"Lady, wait for Xianggong to come back, Xianggong will definitely go to high school, and our days will get better and better."

"Well, I believe that Xianggong has this strength, and the slave family is waiting for Xianggong to return at home."

Su Qi'an and Qin Ziyin hugged each other and kept warm, and after a while, they separated, and the four people in the distance, Li Hu, Zhao Da, Tie Niu, and Shui Sheng, understood and drove a donkey cart forward.

Su Qi'an got into the car, said goodbye to many villagers, and under the drive of Li Hu, the figure of the five gradually disappeared.

This time, Su Qi'an and the others took the official road, and nothing happened along the way, which was very smooth.

Today is the county test of the seven counties under Chuandu County, which is a big event for Chuandu County, even if the security under the county is not good, but on such a day, the bandits in the mountains are very quiet.

Whoever dares to go down the mountain to rob on such a day will either be kicked in the brain or enter the water, and that will be a slap in the face of the Daliang Imperial Court.

The imperial examination represents the official position of Daliang, and even if there is some turmoil in Daliang now, it is absolutely not a reason for these bandits to act recklessly.

Once moved, it is not the county officials who will be dispatched to suppress the bandits, but the military troops of Daliang.

Because of this, the annual imperial examinations in each county, even if it is the lowest level of township examinations, the public security during that period is the best.

Walking on the official road, there are few people on weekdays, but now as they approach Lingbei County, along the way, they see many figures taking various vehicles one after another.

Naturally, the well-offed ones are high-headed horses, and most of the poor ones are the same as Su Qi'an, either taking a donkey cart or walking.

In just a few hundred meters, Su Qi'an saw no less than twenty or thirty students rushing to take the exam, which looked quite lively.

The Daliang Imperial Examination is divided into four grades, which are the township examination for children and talents selected within a county, and the county examination for people selected from within a county.

and the state examination of the highest level of Jinshi, generally after becoming a Jinshi, they will go to the capital to participate in the palace examination presided over by the Three Dukes and even the Emperor of the Dynasty, and the top ten are called Jinshi and the first.

In the top three of Jinshi and the first, it is the famous champion, Bangyan, and Tanhua.

At that point, it is really one foot into the ranks of high-ranking officials, and when the time comes, he will be assigned to study in the Hanlin Academy, worship the three princes as a teacher, and spend several years sharpening it, he must be a very human minister, this is the spiritual belief of countless students who have studied hard for decades.

It's just that this thing is a little too far away for Su Qi'an at present, Su Qi'an's goal is not big, he just wants to become a lifter, as for the Jinshi and the top three or something, to be honest, Su Qi'an is not cold.

After all, if you become a lifter, you are already a candidate for reserve officials, and in a county, even if it is a county order, you have to be polite.

After all, maybe one day, this person will become the successor of the county order.

But the county order is not confused, and it is quite polite to Mr. Juren.

If he can become a lifter, Su Qi'an will at least have the right to write in Lingbei County, and it can be regarded as a stable foundation.

This is the biggest purpose of Su Qi'an's participation in the county examination.

Because there was no obstruction, it took less than half an hour for Su Qi'an and the five of them to arrive at Lingbei County.

At the gate of the county seat, Su Qi'an and Li Hu instructed and motioned for the four to go back.

Although the county test can bring some domestic slaves and entourage to follow, but these are all done by powerful and wealthy families, Su Qi'an is a cloth cloth, if he takes Li Hu and the four of them, it will inevitably cause trouble.

Su Qi'an is nothing alone, but Li Hu is a civilian, and Su Qi'an Duan will not let the four of them be involved.

Of course, this is only one aspect, and more importantly, Li Hu and the four of them returned to the village, and they also had their own tasks.

During the one-month preparation period, Su Qi'an did one thing in the village in addition to studying every day.

Gather almost 20 hunters in the village, led by Li Hu, Zhao Da, Shui Sheng, and Tie Niu, to form a permanent hunter team, and patrol around Dongshan Village according to the daily schedule.

Not only the Orion team was organized, but even the little daughters-in-law and sisters-in-law in the village also formed a women's team, and their task was to see if there were any new faces in the village, and to understand some of the situation in the village.

And the captain of this women's team is the granddaughter of Village Chief Li, Li Xiaomei, don't look at Li Xiaomei's age, only sixteen or seventeen, but she has a pungent and bold temperament, even Su Qi'an can't resist.

Moreover, among the women in the village, there is considerable appeal, and such people are of great help to Dongshan Village if they are used well, put them in suitable positions, and use them well.

The reason why Su Qi'an did this was also to be able to protect the villagers of Dongshan Village, after all, it was not a peaceful year, bandits, beasts, if the villagers were not organized.

Whenever he comes again, Dongshan Village will have countless casualties, and it is also thanks to some of the things Su Qi'an did in Dongshan Village, which makes him have a great influence in the village, and this kind of organizational arrangement can only be done by Su Qi'an.

Of course, this kind of spontaneous organization is certainly not comparable to the official army, but there is always a process.

After the fight between the man in black, Su Qi'an had a thought in his heart that a person's strength is limited, and only by using all the people around him and making reasonable arrangements can he seek a trace of stability in this unpeaceful day.

This is just the beginning, after the end of this imperial examination, how to arrange Dongshan Village in the future, Su Qi'an will plan well.

After telling Li Hu and Zhao Da, seeing the four of them leave, Su Qi'an retracted his gaze, turned around and drove the donkey cart alone into the county seat.

This trip to the county town opened Su Qi'an's eyes, compared with the desertion and chaos of the county last time, this time in Lingbei County, it is quite orderly.

The vendors around the street were well-behaved, and there were no forced buying and selling on the road, and there were no robberies on the road.

Almost every 100 meters, you will see a team of soldiers and officials in black armor patrolling back and forth.

Looking at the clothes, except for the officials, they are from Lingbei County, and as for those black-armored soldiers, they are from the county town of Sichuan.

From this point of view, the county guard attaches great importance to this county test.

Everyone's face was full of tension, and the string in their minds did not relax, as soon as there was any wind and grass, these officials and soldiers would appear as soon as possible.

It's no wonder they look like this, the annual seven-county county test, this year's turn is Lingbei County.

There are two or three hundred people in the seven counties, most of whom are county magnates, and it is even said that some of them are related to several high-level officials in the county.

If something happens to this kind of person in Lingbei County, Lingbei County is afraid that a few heads will not be enough to cut off.

Therefore, when hundreds of Xiucai set off from the counties, Fang Jingzhi released all the officials in the county early, and even borrowed troops from the county guard half a month in advance, in order to ensure the smooth progress of the county imperial examination.

Su Qi'an was walking in Lingbei County, he was not in a hurry to go to the inn specially for Xiucai, but drove a donkey cart around the city.

Last time, because of something, I went straight to the county government along the way, but I didn't know much about other places in the county.

Now that he has time to enter the city, Su Qi'an will naturally not let go of this opportunity to have a good tour.

On both sides of the main road in the city, in addition to all kinds of vendors, at the end of the road, Su Qi'an saw several restaurants, inns, and even brothels.

It's not lively along the way, this is what the county should be.

Su Qi'an sighed a little, after a few cursory glances, he roughly understood the whole picture of Lingbei County, and was about to return to the inn when suddenly, a slender young man with a freckled face blocked Su Qi'an's way.

Without waiting for Su Qi'an to speak, this young man who looked like a pockmarked rod began to compliment.

"Ah, when I look at Mr., I know that he is not an ordinary person, it must be Mr. Xiucai who rushed to take the exam this time, such a young Mr. Xiucai is rare in Lingbei County, Mr. can be described as a young talent."

Su Qi'an's face was calm, and he didn't have any touch on this kind of whisker and horseman.

There are many such people in the county, and they are basically not seen on weekdays, and they usually appear in various events and conferences.

I don't have any other skills, but I rely on my excellent eloquence and extraordinary eyesight, and I specialize in leading the way for all kinds of powerful people and children of big families, explaining and analyzing the situation in the local city.

This kind of person has a nickname called Youyoujin, no matter how he behaves or how he speaks, it is like smearing honey to ensure that he is comfortable serving those gentlemen.

It's a pity that this time this time this oil gold saw the wrong person, Su Qi'an is not one of those wronged leaders.

Su Qi'an was not touched, which surprised the young man a little, but he did not give up and still talked to Su Qi'an.

"This gentleman, a talent, looks dignified, must not come to Lingbei County much, since he is a young talent, naturally he has to get to know the real talents together."

"The Moon Tower in front, but gathered the magnates of the seven counties, at this time they are meeting friends with poems, the atmosphere is not lively, it is said that the winner's lottery head, there are one or two hundred taels."

"If you go, sir, maybe the top of the list will be you, sir..."

The young man's eloquent conversation did not impress Su Qi'an at all, and Su Qi'an was almost leaving.

This is the most failed time for the young man who has been in the market for so many years, but he didn't expect him to meet such a master today.

Just when the young man was about to give up, his voice just fell, and a gust of wind suddenly sounded in his ears, and when the young man came back to his senses, in front of him, Su Qi'an's face appeared in front of him at some point.

This scene startled the young man.

When he came back to his senses, Su Qi'an's voice sounded in his ears, "What you said is true?" In that case, let's lead the way. ”

The young man nodded, but his face showed a bit of a strange look, with so many years of experience in the industry, he had seen all kinds of powerful people, and he had never seen someone as eager as Su Qi'an.

He is not eager to befriend the powerful, or care about fame and fortune, but the desire for money.

One or two hundred taels, although it is a lot of money, it is nothing to the powerful and wealthy people, but this Su Qi'an is obviously going for money.

"Could it be that I have been a thin monkey and has known people for so many years, and today I overturned?"
