Spring goes to spring and comes again, flowers bloom again, and it's another year.

In May of the sixteenth year of Wanli, the great master of the imperial history of Tixue finally came to Suzhou City and completed the investigation of the Fuxue and the two county scholars, which is the so-called scientific examination.

According to the normal itinerary, the study of the imperial history should have come to Suzhou City early at the end of last year or in February and March of this year.

But it wasn't until April, seeing that it couldn't be dragged on, so he came to Suzhou City to inspect the qualifications of the students' township examinations.

If the student officer does not come to Suzhou again, the registration time for this year's township examination is almost over!

In the past year, the governor, the governor, and the officials with the nature of the inspection, all of them are unwilling to go to Suzhou City.

This kind of thing is not the most excessive to mention the delay of studying imperial history for a few months.

The current governor only came to Suzhou once during the autumn harvest last year, and left again in less than a month; And the current inspector has not been to Suzhou at all so far.

Therefore, compared to the governor and the governor, the study of the imperial history is only a few months late, which is already very good.

The scientific examination, which made most of the scholars in the city nervous, determined the qualifications for the township examination, but the process was not alarming.

Lin Daguan was smoothly rated as second-class, and obtained the qualification for the township examination in a very low-key manner.

The people who have a good relationship with Lin Daguan in the school have also obtained the qualification for the township examination, except for Xiao Feng Menglong.

Because his father felt that he was too young, he was afraid that he would be dazzled by the red light district of Qinhuai Old Courtyard on the other side of Nanjing Gongyuan, so he didn't let him go to the township examination room.

After the end of the examination, those who were able to take the township examination continued to study intensively, while the examination season for other scholars was over.

In the study outside the Lin Mansion in Canglang Pavilion, a fierce quarrel suddenly broke out.

Lin Daguanren, the dean of Hengtang College, who had just opened for two months, sprayed passionately at Gao Changjiang, vice president and academic administrator:

"How many times have I said that the Four Books and Five Classics are not allowed to be taught in Hengtang College, why did you list the Four Books and Five Classics in the curriculum?"

Gao Changjiang replied unconvinced: "That's an optional subject, not a compulsory subject!" You're too sensitive! ”

Lin Daguan shouted very unceremoniously: "Think about it with your pig brain, even if you choose a subject!"

I don't allow a poor person to secretly study the Four Books and Five Classics in Hengtang Academy in the name of learning arithmetic skills, and then drop out of school to take some imperial examination! ”

Gao Changjiang also defended: "The purpose of adding the Four Books and Five Classics is to cultivate people's hearts and make students' knowledge more comprehensive, which is education!" ”

Lin Daguan couldn't bear to reprimand: "What you say is a fart, completely deviating from the direction of running a school!"

You remember, we are a technical college, and the purpose of running the school is to train students for the position of the Lin Group, and to conduct process research by the way, not to cultivate sages!

If you set up a course on the Four Books and Five Classics, there will definitely be many students who will take the opportunity to learn the scriptures and meanings, and then go to the imperial examination!

Therefore, there is no need to use the Four Books and Five Classics to cultivate people's hearts, and the liberal arts subjects include "Lin Poems" and "Lin Language", which is enough!

Also, instead of spending money to set up four books and five classics, you should set up awards to reward new creations of technology in various industries! ”

Gao Changjiang's advanced educational concept of "all-round development" was completely denied, and his face turned red with anger.

Because he was severely reprimanded by the hall, his face was very unbearable, and he shouted: "I want to resign!" ”

Then he didn't say goodbye anymore, and turned around angrily and walked out.

Next to him, Wang Fifteen hurriedly persuaded Lin Tailai: "Husband, don't worry about Mr. Gao!"

How rare it is to have a relative or friend who can quarrel now, and when the high places are too cold in the future, you can't find anyone who wants to quarrel. ”

Lin Tailai was puzzled, and instructed Zhang Wen, the left protector who was standing at the door:

"Let your lady send a message to Gao Changjiang's wife, just say that Gao Changjiang wants to resign from the senior management position of the Lin Group, and then return to his old business and become a storyteller who lives by rewarding!"

At this time, Lin Shilai, the eldest brother of the Lin family, and Lin Fulai, the third brother, appeared outside the door, and they did not dare to come in with fear.

They knew that when they came to see the fourth brother today, they would definitely be taught a lesson.

These two people, Lin Boss is the head of the engineering team, and Lin Sange is the director of the industrial park.

After the establishment of the industrial park real estate club last year, it was handed over to these two people to be jointly responsible.

The progress of the loom in the industrial park has been lagging behind the plan, and that's it, it's okay.

However, the number of rooms in the house that was originally intended to be used as a weaver's dormitory has repeatedly exceeded the plan, which is completely contrary to the original intention of Lin Daguan!

Therefore, the biggest black hand of the overheating of the real estate in the industrial park that Lin Daguan hated was these two brothers.

Lin Daguan never expected that the industrial park, which has a population of only six or seven thousand people, would also show signs of overheating of real estate.

Seeing the two culprits of the eldest brother and the third brother, Lin Tailai was very unhappy and instructed Boss Lin: "Your engineering team craftsmen, immediately withdraw from the industrial park for me!" ”

Lin Lao said loudly: "I think the money coming from the development of real estate in the industrial park is very fast, as long as the real estate club issues bonds, someone will come to buy it, and then build a house and operate it." ”

Lin Tailai sighed deeply, the two brothers didn't realize that the real estate bubble would collapse.

The main reason is that the legal provisions related to companies and property in this era, as well as the people's awareness of leeks, are hundreds of years behind.

If there is really a real estate bubble collapse, he Lin Tailai will immediately become the public enemy of his father and fellow villagers, and he can't run away in this kind of rural society, and it is possible to be raided.

Therefore, even if you cross over, you can't do things too ahead.

"Stop talking nonsense!" Lin Tailai made a bold decision and said: "In the future, the two of you will quit the real estate club, and it is forbidden to meddle in the business of the real estate club!" ”

In front of Lin Tailai, Boss Lin and Third Brother Lin had no bargaining power at all, so they could only obey orders.

Lin Tailai said to Wang 15 again: "In the future, the real estate club will also be handed over to you to take care of, grasp the balance, and don't make any more signs of overheating!" ”

Secretary Bai also walked in, and said to Lin Tai: "Sister Fan's family asked, why can't Xinwu Liantangkou expand anymore?" ”

Lin Daguan asked rhetorically: "Can her brain capacity be as big as her breasts?" Does she want everyone in the world to think that I, Lin Tailai, are preparing to rebel? ”

Wang Fifteen next to him quickly caught a key piece of information, the husband seems to prefer the big ones instead of the flat ones like the mainstream scholars?

Could it be that the husband's favorite favorite is not Secretary Bai, but the Fan family in Mudu Town?

Lin Tailai continued: "Now the new Wulian involves three counties, covering one-tenth of the money and grain of the entire Suzhou Prefecture, which is enough to ensure long-term peace and stability!" Enough is enough! ”

The most important task of the yamen in Suzhou Prefecture and County is money and grain, and the collection of seven achievements is qualified, eight achievements are excellent, and nine achievements are outstanding.

Therefore, the money and grain that can control the entire Suzhou Mansion does not seem particularly conspicuous, but it is enough to influence the government.

For example, if 70 percent becomes 60 percent, and the official assessment directly changes from qualified to unqualified, then you can only cry to death.

This is equivalent to Lin Daguan's insurance for the Lin Group's industry to ensure a stable development environment. After all, no matter how the prefectural and county officials are replaced, they must be subject to the assessment of money and grain.

The left and right Dharma protectors of the Zhang family brothers have been standing at the door, and when they heard the movement in the study, Zhang Wu couldn't help but ask his brother:

"The weather is so beautiful today, but why are you so irritable when you sit in the museum? Whoever is arrested and who is trained is terrifying!

Is it because he suggested that Qi Shaobao give full play to his spare heat and study how to ship cotton from Shandong to Jiangnan, but he was scolded by Qi Shaobao in a reply, and he was unhappy?

To be honest, the suggestion of sitting in the hall is indeed a bit boring, and it is deserved to be scolded by Qi Shaobao. ”

Zhang Wen sighed: "Maybe it's because I'm going to resign from the museum, and I can get the qualification to be an official, which conflicts with the original official body."

Therefore, if you have an official status, you are not allowed to enter the township examination, and you have to resign from your current official position in order to sign up for the township examination. ”

Zhang Wu said: "That's not unpleasant, right? It's not like being dismissed and quitting officialdom.

Isn't it a very certain thing to sit in the hall and immediately take the exam to lift people and even jinshi? ”

Zhang Wen shook his head and didn't say anything more.

For those who like power, it will be very uncomfortable to lose a little power, unless they can gain more power.

Now resign from the garrison of Suzhou City, supervise the transportation of thousands of households, and between next year's examination and the appointment of the sergeant, it is a window period for the loss of power in the hall.

According to the usual practice, before the township examination, each school will hold a banquet for the candidates, and Suzhou Fufu School is no exception.

A few days later, Lin Tai came to Fuxue and drank Zhuangxing wine with other candidates.

At this time, the people sitting around Lin Tailai were mainly the scholars who dared to sign their names during the "joint protest" last year, and they were all in his small circle.

Everyone chatted while eating and drinking, and the topic was of course inseparable from the township test three months later.

Jin Shiheng was a little dissatisfied and said: "Our scientific examination time is too late, and now there are only three months left.

Many friends from other prefectures and counties have already gone to Nanjing, and they will always find out more news than we can. ”

Chen Yunjian sneered: "Do you really think that you went early to exchange knowledge and inquire about news?

There is only one really useful piece of information, who is the examiner? Now no one can know in advance. ”

The chief examiner of the Nanzhili Township Examination is served by senior Hanlin officials, and it is often not until the end of June and the beginning of July that the emperor temporarily formulates candidates.

Then the chief examiner, at the moment of receiving the order, immediately set off under the strict supervision of Jinyiwei, without raising flags and not making contact with others along the way.

Until he arrived in Nanjing City, the chief examiner lived directly in the inner courtyard of the Tribute Academy, and then locked the gate to isolate himself from the outside world.

Therefore, it is basically impossible for these scholars in the south to know in advance who the examiner is.

Just knowing who the examiner is is is a piece of news worth a thousand dollars.

Even if you don't have the opportunity to contact the examiner, you can search for the examiner's past articles and answer the questions according to the examiner's preferences!

Lin Daguan sighed and said to everyone: "It's a pity that I was forced to resign, so I could only register for the township examination as a student."

Otherwise, I can personally sit in Jiangbei, and then send out hundreds of soldiers as spies to closely monitor the Jiangbei Canal, and I will definitely be able to intercept the examiner in advance. ”

Everyone: "."

How can you listen to your Lin Tailai's tone, a bit like the Jiangyang thieves in the river trying to intercept and kill the officials?

Jin Shiheng said with a smile: "Why is this happening, classmate Lin, isn't there a first assistant to arrange for you, so you don't have to think so much!" ”

If it had been placed a few decades ago, it would have been hard to imagine that it would be possible to openly talk about going through the back door.

A few decades ago, going through the back door was a sneaky thing, and even if there were, no one would openly admit it.

But now the atmosphere has changed, and being able to go through the back door has been regarded by many people as a skill.

To tell the truth, how Shen Shoufu was arranged, Lin Daguan didn't know anything at present, so he could only passively wait and accept.

In fact, Lin Daguan doesn't like this feeling very much, he prefers to take the initiative. But if this mentality is known to others, I am afraid that I will be scolded for "hypocrisy" again.

Lin Tailai put down his distracting thoughts, and shouted to everyone with a wine cup: "Is the idea I just had for myself?" I'm here for you! ”

Anyway, now that they are all drunk, they are casually happy, Lin Daguan continued:

"If I could, I'd do my best to help you get that damn lifter! But don't blame me if you don't make the list! ”

A group of drunken scholars shouted in unison: "Brother Lin is righteous! ”

Lin Daguan laughed a few times "hey, hey, hey", others thought that he had drunk too much and smirked, but they didn't know that he was secretly refreshing.

Most of the people in his small circle, except for Feng Menglong, who hit the street, have been hit by Jinshi in history.

In other words, these people have all passed the exam, and the probability of winning the township exam is not low.

I first blew out the cowhide of "secretly helping", and then in case they really won the township test, and then mistakenly thought that it was really their own strength, wouldn't it be a wave of gratitude in vain?

White prostitution is cool, but unfortunately this white prostitution experience cannot be shared with others.

Then everyone began to discuss when to leave for Nanjing, whether to go together and other topics.

Someone asked Lin Tailai, "Aren't you going with me?" ”

Lin Daguan waved his hand and said, "You guys go first, I'm not in a hurry." ”

Jin Shiheng said yearningly: "The old courtyard of Nanqu on the other side of the Gongyuan River in Nanjing is the most romantic place in the world!"

I heard that a random beauty there is the top 20 level of the Suzhou flower list, and the 12 hairpins of Qinhuai are the best in the flower world and are the choice of contemporary romance. ”

Listening to Jin Shiheng talking about the beauty of Nanjing Qinhuai River, everyone was a little commotion, after all, they were all young people in their twenties.

Only Lin Tailai asked passionlessly: "And then?" ”

Jin Shiheng said a little worriedly: "Now that the township test is imminent, thousands of scholars are gathering in the Qinhuai River, and the supply of beauties exceeds demand."

We're already late, and if we don't get there as soon as possible, I'm afraid it will be difficult to make an appointment.

Especially the beauty of the twelve hairpins, it would be a pity if you couldn't see it in Nanjing. ”

Lin Daguan was still lacking in interest, and said casually: "The twelve hairpins are just like that, not as energetic as you said."

When I went to Nanjing three years ago, all the beauties on the Qinhuai River had to obey me, and whoever wanted to play could go directly into the house, or it was free, and Hai Qingtian gave me a back, so do I need to make an appointment? ”

Everyone: "."

This cowhide must be blown 100 points, and giving one point less is unfair in the world.

Lin Tailai explained: "There is some business in Yangzhou City, I will go to Yangzhou to do business first, and then go to Nanjing. ”

Chen Yunjian was shocked and said, "You don't really want to go to Jiangbei and intercept the examiner along the canal, right?" ”

Lin Tailai: "."

The students are really confident in themselves, and they really think that if they publicly die, they will definitely not die.
