In the country of Yin, poetry is a small way. This "small" is relative to the meaning of the imperial examination. However, among the people, the literary style is popular, and every festival, there are many poetry meetings and words, gathering a group of literati and scholars, chanting poems and paintings, and entertaining. Among them, there are also some female talents, who are very popular as soon as they appear.

The so-called poetry and literary society is equivalent to a social circle.

Chen Tang, as Panzhou Xie Yuan, has been in the limelight recently, and the invitation has not been broken. But many times, he politely refused. If it weren't for the turmoil of the times and the crises outside, he would have wanted to go out to study again and be quiet.

Tao Hao came to invite today, Chen Tang thought about it and agreed.

There has been snow in the past few days, and the snow scene is very beautiful, Chen Tang pondered going out to play, maybe touching the scene and feeling it, and writing works with literary atmosphere.

Anyway, he hasn't had a word for sale for a long time.

After taking the exam, the value is different, and there are several calligraphy and painting shops on Hanmo Street to make an appointment, which can be consigned and bought out.

But in both forms, the price is average, within a few tens of dollars.

This is the normal market in a normal world.

Chen Tang is not a famous calligrapher and painter, and in this circle, there is not much fame to speak of, so naturally he can't sell for a price.

Counting the loss of pen and ink, framing wages, etc., it can be said that such a price is not profitable at all, but time-consuming and labor-intensive.

He didn't want to waste this effort, and he was not willing to let many classics from another time and space be reduced to street goods.

Now, the basic problem of food and clothing has been solved, and he has a reputation for himself, which is different from the embarrassment and hardship at the beginning. There is no need to worry, the work can be written first, as for whether it is sold or not, it is another matter.

There are a lot of readers in the world, and there are many scholars with literary temperament, but there are not many who can write works with literary temperament, and this is still a consumable. The market is tight, so the price is not normal. An ordinary one can be sold for two or three hundred dollars.

Not to mention, Chen Tang's literary temperament, with the blessing of heaven and man, the effect is definitely better.

Strange goods can be lived in, no pressure.

In order to ask for words, Zhao Sanye looked for it several times. He is still recuperating from his injuries, and he is basically fine, and after a while, he will recover seventy-seven-eighty-eight.

However, Chen Tang didn't have any works in hand, and he couldn't sell them if he wanted to. During this time, I was so busy that I couldn't calm down at all, and I couldn't write anything.

I hope that this poetry meeting can make some gains, and write a painting, just a few hundred dollars, which can help a lot of families.

The next morning, Tao Hao came to pick him up in a carriage.

After getting into the carriage, Chen Tang saw a pot of charcoal fire in the carriage, which was warm and bustling, and he would enjoy it.

"No, you are now a man, you should buy two maids, and you have to have a small entourage to serve you when you go out. Otherwise, I have a few good ones in my house that you can come and pick up. ”

Tao Hao knew that the imperial examination was hopeless, so he could only stop at Xiucai, and he valued Chen Tang very much, and he married many parties.

Chen Tang said with a smile: "Don't use it for the time being, and wait until next year's Son of Heaven will try it." ”

Hearing him say that the Son of Heaven tried, Tao Hao's face was full of envy.

The three major examination rooms for scholars, in fact, are the most difficult in the middle, and passing this level is almost equal to the sea and the sky. Although there are many applicants for the Tianzi Examination, there are also many admissions, and the total number of students in each session is at least more than 100.

Once admitted, even the worst third-class Tongjinshi will be arranged with an official position, with a good rank, and can enter the stream.

As long as you pass the exam, you will definitely apply for the next Tianzi exam.

There are not many opportunities if you miss it once in three years, and if you miss it, you have to wait another three years.

How many three years are there in life?

Compared with the children's examination, there is also an age limit for the Tianzi examination, which cannot exceed 60 years old.

is too old, even if he is selected, it will be difficult to become an official.

The state takes the people, not the old-aged.

This is determined by the national conditions of Yin.

So as long as you can take the test, you will basically participate in every session. After all, for a lifter, most of the make-up examination fees and other expenses can be raised.

After all, after taking the exam, there are many industries under your name, such as houses, fields, businesses, etc.

Chen Tang doesn't have much now, but he has pushed a lot of favors. There is no merit, and I don't want to be contaminated too much.

Tao Hao knew that he was ambitious, and he admired it even more, so he changed the topic and talked about today's poetry.

This poetry club has a name, called "Snow Moon Society Poetry Society", and the venue is on a small island in Crescent Lake.

Crescent Lake is the largest lake in Panzhou, stretching for thousands of miles, a small half of which is located in the city of Panzhou, adding a lot of lake light and water color to the city, and the scenery is elegant.

Xueyue Club is one of the best societies in the Panzhou literary and artistic circles, and one of the major features is that there are many female members, which can attract newcomers to join.

Tao Hao is one of the members, but he is the kind of person who has no sense of existence. He had limited talent, and in order to join the club, he paid a membership fee of 500 yuan, which was almost equivalent to spending money to buy a membership. Joining it, you can get social, after all, the members are either rich or expensive, but there is no poor and sour talent.

This poetry meeting, the main body of the "Spring Festival Blessing", belongs to the program that will be held every year, all members can participate, there are more than 100 people, quite lively.

The organizer of the poetry club knew that Tao Hao was familiar with Xinke Xie Yuan, so he asked him to invite Chen Tang, if Chen Tang was willing to join the club, it would be a happy thing.

Since it is a poetry club, in addition to eating and drinking, some colorful heads are also set up, and the main content of the competition is poetry, calligraphy and painting, and there is no talk about the scriptures and articles.

The poetry is right, Tao Hao is not much interested, what he is interested in is a large group of warblers and Yanyan in the society, among which there are quite a few talented women with outstanding appearances, which makes people see it and can't help but drool secretly.

Tao Hao has already married a family, but it does not prevent him from coming out to have fun, sometimes in order to talk about business, or to relieve pressure, he will go to Yihong Courtyard to relax.

Since ancient times, there have been many talented people, although he is not a talent, but he also has the power of romance.

The main thing, of course, is that you have to have money.

As for a young and handsome man like Chen Tang, he is the most popular in the school, he wants to be famous, talented, talented, and good-looking.

There's no comparison!

Tao Hao sighed in his heart.

"Young Master, it's here!"

The carriage stopped, Tao Hao and Chen Tang got out of the car, and saw a lake in front of them, with light snow flying, the surrounding lake water was slightly frozen, and the trees on the shore were covered in silver, which was extremely beautiful.

He has his own long hand to open the oil-paper umbrella and help the two of them block the snow.

They stepped onto a lakeside corridor and walked over, where there was a canopy boat to pick up people.

Tao Hao ordered his entourage to stay on the shore and get on the boat with Chen Tang by himself.

With a flick of the long pole, the old man floated out and headed for a small island not far away.

That small island, called "Snow Moon Island", is one of the properties of the Snow Moon Society. Many events are held there. There are villas and pavilions on the island, like a luxurious manor.

Not long after, the boat approached Xueyue Island, Chen Tang raised his eyes and saw that the island was indeed not big, round, like a bowl held in a mouthful.

After the boat was moored, Chen Tang and the two landed on the shore and walked up along a stone path, with many pavilions along the way for people to rest.

About a quarter of an hour later, they came to the gate of a huge courtyard, and entered, and inside was a large garden-like courtyard, where dozens of men and women, men and women, were already here, laughing and laughing, orchestrating silk and bamboo, and enjoying themselves.

Chen Tang's arrival soon attracted a lot of attention, some looked up and down, some secretly peeped, some looked affectionate, and some had hot eyes......

At this moment, Chen Tang regretted a little, maybe he shouldn't have come to participate in this poetry meeting.
