Xie Rongzhao had heard of study tours before, but most of them were things that only children of rich families would do.

Nowadays, I heard that the township examination is not only a test of some things in books, but also a test of some practical talents, and the school examination attaches more importance to this.

To put it more bluntly, if you study hard, you may not be able to get good grades, because since the hometown test, you will have policy and opinions on government affairs.

And if you just blindly seek answers from books, I am afraid that it will not work.

This brings us to some practical issues.

There's a lot of difficulty and detail in that.

An ordinary peasant household may not know who is doing things in the county government, and he doesn't even know which way the gate of the county government is open.

At the very least, they know that there are six rooms in the county government office, and there are also big differences between the officials and the officials.

The rules of the Great Governance Dynasty, once you are moved, you are expected to be able to become an official.

For example, after Cheng Jingzhou's father was promoted, he could be a county magistrate, a teacher in the county school, etc., if the family is strong, it is also possible to seek a county order.

Since the lord has such preferential treatment, in the examination, there will inevitably be some specific affairs of the government.

No matter how knowledgeable you are, if you don't even know how a yamen works, how can you be a good parent official?

And where does this knowledge come from?

Is it in the books?

There must be, but it won't be too detailed, and it won't let you see some specific operational details.

Therefore, you have to experience it with your own ideas.

This brings us to study tours.

Some students go out to study, just to broaden their horizons, and to make famous mountains and rivers.

Some students go out to study in order to learn more about the people's livelihood and more truly feel the relationship between the government and the people.

Of course, if you have a little bit of family background, you will directly arrange for the children of the clan to study with some officials.

To the outside world, it can be said that it is a student, a relative, etc., which is nothing more than to let them know more about a set of survival methods in the officialdom through personal contact.

To put it bluntly, when you are still studying the falsehood, emptiness, and emptiness in these books, people who have the conditions have begun to go into battle and understand some specific rules and details.

That's the gap!

If Xie Xiuwen has the opportunity, he naturally wants to go on a study tour, even if it is just to visit a famous teacher, it is good to simply do knowledge, at least it can broaden his horizons and make him more broad-minded.

But this requires a large sum of silver.

In addition to the scholars who carry them with them, for the sake of safety, ordinary people will always bring two or three more capable strong men, which requires money, right?

In addition, going out to stay and eat and drink is inseparable from money.

If you ask someone to do something, you don't know how much you have to come up with.

Of course, there are also some students from poor families who will choose to 'travel poorly', that is, to go on the road alone, just to increase their knowledge, such a study tour will not cost too much money, but in the same way, the risk will be higher.

If there are conditions, Xie Rongzhao naturally hopes that his beautiful father can bring three or four people to take a look outside, which will also be conducive to the beauty father doing official errands in the future.

Xie Rongzhao calculated it like this, if the beautiful father goes out for a month, it is equivalent to preparing the expenses of five people, and this day will have to be two taels of silver, because in some places, you have to pay for it when you go to the city, and when you go out, the food and accommodation can't be too bad, and it will be more troublesome when you are sick.

In this way, it is sixty taels of silver a month, plus you have to hire a carriage and horses, and if you buy it yourself, it is another expense.

A few big men are running around, and they can't say that they will have to do some work of mending clothes......

Xie Rongzhao sighed: "It can't be counted, it seems that as long as you go out, you have to spend money." ”

Xie Rongzhao inquired with Cheng's father on the side, but whenever he went out to study, it was at least three months or several years.

With her understanding of the beauty Daddy, he will definitely participate in next year's autumn, so even if it is a study tour at the beginning of spring next year, it will be counted as half a year, tsk...... Xie Rongzhao smacked his lips, he had to prepare four hundred taels to say the least!

It's scary.

This reading is too expensive.

Although Xie Rongzhao felt that it was a little expensive, he still felt that he should think of a way.

In the past, the beautiful aunt did not have the conditions to go on a study tour, but now they can earn money by themselves, and they can always think of ideas.

Even if you can't go out for half a year, it's okay for three months, right?

Xie Rongzhao thought of Father Cheng, if he could get his recommendation, maybe the beautiful father could still enter the yamen to do things for a few days.

And now although the braised restaurant has made money, it can't spend all the money, and has to keep some emergency use.

Xie Xiuwen, who was far away in Mingshan Academy, didn't know that his good baby was already frowning at this time.

Xie Xiuwen has indeed been preparing for next year's study tour recently.

Xu Yuanqing meant to arrange for a few of them to go for a walk together, so that they could experience the hardships of the people's livelihood firsthand, and at the same time, let them truly feel some difficulties and temptations of officials in their actual work.

The reason why Xu Yuanqing was able to become an emperor was not only because of his good knowledge.

If you simply talk about learning, there are many Confucians in the world who are better than him.

Xu Yuanqing alone can be valued by two generations of emperors, and naturally he has his special place.

The biggest difference between Xu Yuanqing and those famous Confucians may be that he advocates the comprehensiveness of students' abilities and knowledge.

It's not just that if you write a good article, you must be able to be a good official.

Director Xu of the library brought the booklet over, and as soon as he entered the door, he smelled the aroma of tea.

"Cousin, what good things are you getting?"

Xu Yuanqing saw that he was coming, smiled and beckoned him to sit down, and then poured him a cup of tea with his own hands.

"What did you take?"

Director Xu smiled: "I've been paying attention to a few students recently, and this is a list of books that I have people specially copyed. ”

Xu Yuanqing took a look and found the clue.

This is a record of which books several students have studied in the library building in the past ten days, and whether they have deliberately copied them.

"Why do you pay attention to Wang Jin?"

Director Xu said slowly: "Wang Jin is an average talent, and he seems to be inferior to Xie Xiuwen compared to diligence, but I think this person has a good character, and his relationship with Xie Xiuwen is also good." By the way, this is the article he has done these few times. ”

Director Xu said as he handed over a few pages of paper.

"Since you are selecting talents for the Son of Heaven, you must follow some rules in the court. Wang Jin is good here, if you dial one or two, you can give it a try in the autumn of next year. ”
