In the Ming Dynasty, neither county or provincial examination nor provincial examination nor imperial examinations would be placed on cold days.

Baiminghe had an exam here in Nanjing. When scholars came to Nanjing, they were crowded with big and small inns, whether high-end or ordinary inns. Nanjing has not been so lively for many years, at least in the days without exams, there are few so many scholars in Nanjing.

The Nanjing Ministry of Rites set the exam time on February 15th, and only said that this day is auspicious.

Another reason is that scholars from all over the world are already accustomed to the exam time. If you want to go ahead, many people will miss the exam. In order to pick up the scholars, you should naturally let more people take the exam.

The Nanjing Ministry of Rites made sense and did not cause trouble for Bai Minghe.

The test questions and examination methods are entirely dominated by Bai Minghe, and the examiner and other exams are also determined by Bai Minghe. Anyway, none of them are admitted to the official position, and there are no restrictions on the people from Nanjing’s Ministry of Rites.

When the Nanjing Ministry of Rites began to accept registration on the first day of February, the high valley that disappeared in Nanjing City, which had many days finally appeared.

"Old Gao has contacted many old friends!" Bai Minghe greeted him with a smile on his face.

Gao Guyi bowed his hand and said to Bai Minghe with a smile: "Of course there are many old friends, but many of them were scared by you. They originally wanted to contact some people to play against you, but unfortunately these people have been in Nanjing for a long time and have been unintentional and just want to keep their positions and live their lives."

Bai Minghe laughed dryly, thinking that Gao Gu's words should be fake.

However, no matter whether it is true or not, it doesn’t matter at the moment. One thing that is certain is that Gao Gu will appear, and he must be here to cause trouble for himself.

"Old Gao, I'm afraid it's for the exam."

"It's true. But I thought you guessed it wrong. Except for the date of the examination, the rest of the examination is determined by the Ministry of Rites. Of course, the location cannot be placed in the Gongyuan. This is the unanimous opinion of the Ministry of Rites in Nanjing. Nothing else, because the content of this examination includes miscellaneous studies and too much miscellaneous studies."

This is not a problem. It is a compromise.

Gao Gu sat down after entering the house, his expression became a little serious: "Bai Minghe, I have something to come here this time. It's about you wanting to read by the King of Yi. It's unusual for the Prince to read. Moreover, the King of Yi has a special identity, so I think I must submit a memorial and ask Long Live to review it."

"Is this necessary?" Bai Minghexin said, it's not a big deal to find a few children to accompany Zhu Jianshen to study.

Gao Gu said seriously: "It is very necessary. It must be criticized by Wansui. The news of Nanjing City caused some chaos. You are a white-name and a talented man, which is unusual in my eyes. Therefore, I hate you as a teacher. The disciples you teach are not my Confucian disciples, which is something I don't want to do."

Bai Minghe nodded silently, Gao Gu's words were a big truth.

Gao Gu said again: "However, I have to admit that you are a white-name crane and talented. Whether you are a noble or an ordinary person in Nanjing, you also admit that you are a talented person. You all believe that your children can learn a lot from you and can prosper your family business, so you must live the imperial examination. Don't expect Taizu's teachings, and respect Confucianism!"

"Actually, I also receive Confucian moral education."

Bai Minghe pointed to his head.

Gao Gu nodded: "I believe in this sentence. Confucianism has been passed down for thousands of years, and my Chinese etiquette comes from Confucianism."

"Xunzi once said: Confucianism is divided into vulgar Confucianism, elegant Confucianism, and great Confucianism. The sage said: There are gentlemen Confucianism, villain Confucianism. Those who are officials from thousands of miles apart are all Confucian scholars. Of course, it is not Confucian scholars that cannot be officials, so the ones who are scolded are also Confucian scholars. Confucianism values ​​names, but names also include: name, type names, and private names. Therefore, the younger generation thinks that Confucian scholars are not a book, but a heart."

Bai Minghe's words can be said by those who read a few more books in later generations.

Coincidentally, Bai Minghe happened to have read this kind of book, so he could also say it.

"When did Confucianism become domineering? No other voices are allowed, nor are non-Confucian officials? The battles of literati are even more bloody than on the battlefield, and they force the other party's family to be destroyed at any time? From the younger generation, Wu and Bi are not going to take the route of Cheng and Zhu."

When it comes to this person, Gao Gu has an impression.

"I know this person, and in the 11th year of Zhengtong, Shanxi's assistant minister recommended him. Later, someone from the Censorate recommended him to the court. At that time, the Fuzhou magistrate also recommended him three times, but he refused and returned to his hometown to give lectures. He lived a very poor life."

"His Confucian scholars are not limited to officials. They are more disciples of industry, business and farmers. These people may not be officials in the future. It can be said that nine out of ten will not be officials. Does Confucian scholars have only one way to enter the officialdom? Look at those poor scholars who only know how to study and take exams. What will they do besides studying? Do they know how to farm? Can they cook? They don't even hold up their chairs? Do they give Confucian parents face or embarrassment?"

The words of Baiming He aroused Gao Gu's deep thoughts.

At least Bai Minghe has two things right. His Gaogu students' lifelong goal is to take the imperial examinations, and they really can't do anything except study.

"The scholar is useless." Bai Minghe threw a harsh sentence.

Gao Gu shook his head, he did not agree with this.

"Old Gao, let's do it. You and I will write memorials about the reading of the King of Yi. I will listen to you about this matter, but let's make a bet. I will write the test questions in the past few days and then open the test questions. I dare say that those scholars are basically useless. They fail to pass the imperial examination and cannot even be an official. Their only ability is to memorize the Four and Five Books and Books."

Bai Minghe's words made Takagu's face darker.

"Go a bet!" Bai Minghe continued to put pressure on Gao Gu.

"How to bet? What is the bet?" Takaya was not showing weakness.

Bai Minghe brought paper and pen. When he was about to grind it, Gao Gu took the ink over and said to Bai Minghe: "The ink you grind always feels like there is a slag!"

"Is it bad ink?" Bai Minghe's sentence even felt that he was quibbling. Because his ink could be bad. Gao Gu didn't even look at Bai Minghe, but just lowered his head and focused on grinding the ink.

Bai Minghe had to continue talking about the gambling thing: "What I want to bet is that the ability of these scholars, in addition to being able to return to their hometown to teach the Three Character Classic, will not exceed three percent of the truly useful talents. Of course, the test questions are given by me. Not only can you read Mr. Gao, you can read them, but the Ministry of Rites, but I will post them. Let them take the exam when they know the test questions, but still three percent can be used, and the rest can only go back to teach the Three Character Classic!"

"I've gambled!" Gao Guxin said that if he didn't dare to gamble, how could these scholars go out to see people in the future?

"The bet is that if you lose, Mr. Gao, you have to personally invite Wu Yubi to Nanjing. As for whether you can convince him to become an official, that's my business."

"If I win, you, Baiminghe, recite the Analects of Confucius to me in Nanjing City, and then explain it yourself."

There is no pressure to memorize the Analects of Confucius. Bai Minghe was in the Ming Dynasty this year. Apart from official documents, there was only one book that he actually read, which is the Analects of Confucius. When it comes to annotations, Bai Minghe has read no less than ten different annotations.

But let yourself annotate, Bai Minghe feels under pressure.

Then I thought, may I lose?

"Write the document, and then sign and write!" Bai Minghe believed that he would definitely win.

In fact, Takaya didn't expect that he would lose.

After writing the bet, there was no need for a notary. When they were in their identities, the paper was all false. Even people in the Ming Dynasty were very trustworthy, and once they were untrustworthy, they would feel that there was no place for them to stand between heaven and earth, and the people of the Ming Dynasty also avoided those who were untrustworthy.

Bai Minghe took out his test paper.

Of course, it is impossible to post a real test paper, but the test questions are OK.

"The first set of test papers is accounting, divided into three papers, namely basic accounting, operational accounting, and cost accounting. The three papers are scored by themselves. The test questions we published are: on the first day, the first paper is the ability to record accounting. The second paper tests the ability to calculate profits and calculate profit losses. The third paper is the paper in which each workshop calculates the production cost of a piece of goods. I have even prepared the answers here."

"Is the only answer?"

"Some things have only one correct answer, but there can be multiple processes to achieve the correct answer."

Gao Gu has also studied mathematics carefully, and Bai Minghe's words are reasonable.

"The next day I took the logistics category. It was also divided into three papers, namely mechanics, volumetrics, and transportation."

"On the third day, the test was the personnel system, workshop management, dock management, and street management."

“Day 4…

Bai Minghe taught for seven days in a row, and he would only get the Analects of Confucius on the seventh day, but the Analects of Confucius is not the main test question, and the content of the main test is the method of elementary school.

Too many people in the Ming Dynasty memorized by rote. An excellent Meng Master can make these children familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics before the age of ten, and have basic mathematics, and have had certain contact with the Six Arts of Gentlemen before they are ten years old.

Many men of Meng who can only memorize rote, can't even memorize a book of the Analects of Confucius when they reach ten years old.

But Master Meng will not say it is his own responsibility, but only says that the child is too stupid. This is why Bai Minghe invited Wu and Bi to Nanjing. This person is already studying real education, how to learn to write, learn to apply knowledge to life, and learn to be bound by ethics in life.

"There is no use for scholars, especially those who have taken the provincial examinations for five times, are even more waste among waste, and grain slags can pave the way. When they go back to learn from children, it is also a misleading child. The only way out for these people is to write letters on the streets."

The more Bai Minghe said, the more powerful he became, and Gao Guqi's beard was trembling.
