Chapter 50 Talents can be found everywhere
Chapter 50: Talents can be found everywhere
After passing the imperial examination, the talented people everywhere passed the exam happily. Those who failed the exam were too long and those who wanted to take the exam again next year stayed in the capital.
These people suddenly made the capital bustling much. After the imperial examination, the tramplings and restaurants everywhere became places where they often went, either drinking alone or having three or five friends drunk.
It is natural for rich people to say that they can spend as much money as they want, but there are not many people in the family, and even poor people, after asking for it a few times, they found that they would not be able to wait until next year's arrival without thinking about a solution.
Whenever this is the case, there are always people going to post to various residences, wanting to be a master for the people in the residence, and even if they are not good, they can become an aide.
But there are too many people who have been in the imperial examination this year. Only a small number of people have obtained such a position. The remaining people have no other way, so they have to write letters to others, copy books, etc.
More people will go to brothels and other places to help recite two poems, eat and play for free, and maybe they can get the appreciation of the brothel girls and give them some money.
But if the poem is not written well, no one will care. The thin-skinned person finds a way out. The thick-skinned person follows the rich and talented man, helping to grind ink, handing the pen, and waiting for others to write it, and then hype it up.
Some of them have nothing to do with thin skin. The rich young masters do this to those poor people, admiring their talents. Some people are good at talking about each other, and they are all together, whether they are rich or poor, eating, drinking, or lodging, talking about big scriptures and small scriptures, and poetry.
All of this shows the various aspects of life, joy and melancholy are intertwined, and life is repeated in these things.
At this moment, Zhang Xiaobao was busy dealing with the people on the boat trip and still had time to calculate the matter, and the Zhang family took action again.
On Zhuque Street, when the sun just showed its head one morning, a team appeared. The entire team consisted of twenty cars. Large signs were erected on both sides of the truck that was originally a cart. There were big characters written on it. This was not for ordinary illiterate people, but for those talented men.
Therefore, the words are written about dragons and phoenixes dancing, and some landscape paintings. They are accompanied by the sound of gongs and drums, and walk slowly from one end to the other end. Twenty-two cars are lined up in a row, and it is difficult not to attract attention.
The people looked surprised and couldn't read, so they could only ask. There was a literate person who started to talk to the people next to them.
"Xiao Qing, you heard that you took the exam in the second grade of the sutra, which is called the second grade. What did you write for your aunt? It looks so beautiful."
In the capital, a female shopkeeper was passing by the west city while passing by her, and asked the person sitting in front of the window eating. She was twenty-five or six years old. She took the Mingjing subject this year and was admitted to the position. She was a little behind, but there was still an eighth-rank official.
People I knew in the past would look more respectful when I saw him. Only the female shopkeeper in this store was like what she used to be and what she is now. Xiao Qing shouted one by one, but he didn't feel angry at all. The money he had spent over the years was given by this female shopkeeper. He had only one mother in the family and could not help.
If it weren't for this female shopkeeper, he wouldn't say that he wouldn't starve to death, even if he was lucky, he wouldn't want to do anything disrespectful to the female shopkeeper. He heard the question and said respectfully:
"Aunt, this is for some students. It is said that Huayuan County and Sanshui County will hold a competition and invite talented people from all over the country to come. They can help Huayuan County or Sanshui County. Whichever side wins more, the other side will get the top prize in this competition.
This lottery ticket is all people on both sides, and everyone, who gets the first one can get a good lottery ticket and choose it one by one, just like the imperial examination."
After saying this, the man stopped first and waited for the female shopkeeper to react.
"Oh~! So that's the case. Xiaoqing, are you going? What's the lottery?" the female shopkeeper looked at Xiaoqing and asked.
"From ten days later, all students, as long as they take out their own juren's documents, they can take a boat without spending money. The food in the few days when they go is managed by two counties. First, they have to ask which county they are to help, and then they will take the boat of which county. I will ask later if I have any errands in ten days, and if I have one, I can't go there. If I don't have one, I can go and see.
The lottery is valuable, and the number one person is the first, Zizhuxuan study house, and the first four treasures are in the first place. The one that everyone has is also the four treasures in the Zizhuxuan study house, but it is the last one, and the other one is always in the first place."
Xiao Qing explained in detail, and he was a little moved. He felt that it would be better to go and compete than to stay in the capital and not far away.
The female shopkeeper nodded and asked again: "What else is there?"
"There are also the two counties that recruit masters at the same time, and only when the imperial examination is next year, according to the professor, you can get a monthly salary of 40 to 100 ounces. Food and accommodation will be managed by Zhang and Wang's villages. There will be meat for one meal a day and a holiday every ten days."
Xiao Qing explained something else to him, and he was not concerned about this, and those who could not make a living should consider it.
"The two families of Zhang and Wang? But the two families of Zhang and Wang in Sanshui County?" The female shopkeeper did not pay so much attention to other things, and knew about these two families.
Xiao Qing nodded, "It was those two Zhuangzi. If it were someone else, no one would believe it, but what those two Zhuangzi said was naturally extraordinary. It seems that some people like me now have a place to go. No matter what, eating and sleeping are fine."
Xiao Qing is right. Now there are many students on the street who spend money but don’t know what to do. Of course, they also want to participate in a competition and choose a chance. As long as they stand in the right team, they will have consistent money.
This is not a small amount for them. After waiting for them to become masters, they will save money and spend this year carefree and can come to take the imperial examination again next year.
In addition to those who want to find something to do, those wealthy families also want to participate, not for the reward or fame. If people remember it, they will become famous in the future. Otherwise, why would they have to invite others to dinner? Drinking all day long makes you feel a headache, or isn’t it just to have a fame.
The drums and drums were quite different. Even if the person who returned from a hangover last night was awakened by a quack street.
Some officials' mansions were also here. When they heard the messy sounds outside, they asked the servants in the mansion to check. Those waiting to come back said that it was a matter of the two counties, and it also involved the Zhang and Wang families. Many people thought that this matter had never happened, and only a few people complained.
Some people praised this matter. These people are basically dedicated to the country and the people, and know what is included. The students who are in a down-and-out manner can finally be more stable.
In addition to these students' attention, there are also some businessmen and families in the mansion that lack personnel. The businessmen want to go to the competition place to see it. It is better to be able to sell something. If they cannot, they may find a talented person and betroth their daughters in their family.
The lack of staff at home is naturally because the families cannot judge the posts sent by so many students. They don’t look for people, not because they don’t want people, but just don’t know how talented they are? Those posts may be written by others.
At this time, I knew that there was a competition, so I sent out my family and countless students. As long as I competed, I would naturally know which one could work and which one could not. Then I would recruit you, even if it cost more.
This is exactly what Zhang Xiaobao wants to achieve, so that more people can pay attention to the two counties.
He and Wang Juan have set off now and took a boat to Xiao Luoshui. Today is the second day after the merchants lived in Linshui's first family. They quickly passed the message back and forth. After all, it would be delayed for some time, so it would be better to go there in person.
The two people set off from the dock in Huayuan County on a boat and did not receive much attention on the way to Shuiyunjian. However, when they arrived at Shuiyunjian, the people there saw the two rice seedling flags on the boat, they directly sent a boat to greet them.
"This is the real home. On this acre of three-point land, there is no need to worry." Wang Juan said with confidence when he saw the boat coming.
"Yes, we are our home court here. Going further ahead, the people on the boat will be relieved." Zhang Xiaobao also relaxed, looked at the restaurants, and waved his hand vigorously to the boat coming.
A series of greetings immediately sounded on the boat over there.
When Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's boats meet with the ships greeted by Shuiyunjian, the Shuiyunjian Restaurant can see the room in this place, and as long as there are people, they will be moved.
It was so big that even Mr. Hou's escort boat surrounded. There were only two little kids on the bow of a small broken boat, which alarmed so many people. On the boat that was greeted, there were even shopkeepers from various restaurants.
Those who know the situation can only sigh at the power of the Zhang and Wang families here. If they don’t know, they will ask the guy. The guy’s answer is simple. The guy’s young master and the little lady from the master’s family. As long as the person who hears is not stupid, he will know who the guy is talking about.
After a restaurant in Shuiyunjian, when Zhang Xiaobao looked at his home again, he found that it was different from when he left. It was really like he thought, and it made people see a pastoral scenery. The two of them only learned about it in the letter, but they had never seen it with their own eyes.
"If my father hadn't urged him too hard, I would go back and stay for two days and play with the children in the village for a while. When moving in the future, I must bring them all with me and look at it."
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were not prepared to keep a low profile at all at this time. The people from the master came over not only with majesty, but also with a sense of recognition of the place.
