late at night.

The Jinling Imperial Palace finally retreated.

From noon to late at night, the old courtiers were tired for most of the day and finally got the big deal out.

Most of the kings and court officials were old and occupied the hall for half a day, their calves were trembling, so they hurried home to rest.

...

Out of the palace.

The courtiers dispersed.

Chu Tianxiu and Li Nan were walking on the street, but they were holding each other's arms and talking about important matters in a sneaky manner.

Zuer sat in a royal carriage and followed them.

"Old god, I took the emperor's 100 kilograms of gold and made a fortune. But what's the idea of ​​doing a big deal?"

Chu Tianxiu put the shoulders of the old charlatan Li Nan and said with a smile.

"Xiao Hunhou...what's the idea?"

Li Natural looked at Xiao Hunhou, his eyes full of vigilance.

The last time he had a feast in the palace, he was brought into the deep pit of "refining immortality pills" by Xiao Hunhou.

After the past two months, he couldn't eat well and couldn't sleep. He was worried and even prepared to run away.

Finally, he managed to refine "gunpowder" and made great contributions before climbing out of the deep pit. He didn't want to be cheated again.

"Don't worry, there are only benefits but no harm.

I guess this gunpowder is a good business and has too many uses.

Let’s work together, take out the 100 kilograms of gold and set up a Dachu gunpowder workshop together.

This is more money than if you are pretending to be a god or a ghost in Xuanwu Temple, refining alchemy and fooling you. With this gunpowder workshop, you can enjoy your life with a happy life. Are you not moved?"

Chu Tianxiu said.

He can also work alone and build a gunpowder workshop.

But Li Natural and his disciples knew the formula of gunpowder and must follow the example. There may be many gunpowder workshops coming out overnight.

Instead of being in a mess, he might as well bring up Old Shenpu Li and his disciples and build a large gunpowder workshop together to prevent the gunpowder formula from spreading quickly.

"Can gunpowder really make money? What's the use of this thing except for the Taiwei Mansion of the imperial court to make gunpowder packs for the army?... But the Taiwei Mansion has already made the recipe, and they can make it themselves, so there is no need to buy it from us!"

Li Natural couldn't figure it out. The court had taken away the formula. What else could he do to make money by gunpowder?

He didn't know what else gunpowder could do.

"It's very useful. Arms are just one aspect, but they are also used by civilians!"

"This...how do we share the money?"

Li Natural thought about Xiao Hunhou’s proposal, and his face couldn’t help but change.

Of course it is fake to not be moved.

He became a Taoist priest, running around hard, fooling around for most of his life. What is he trying to do?

Isn’t it just to enjoy endless money?

Who is rich and still has such hard work!

Xiao Hunhou obviously had a lot of thoughts about this gunpowder.

"Three or seven points, I'm seven and you three!"

Chu Tianxiu said.

"Let's work together, why are you three or seven? I am now an earl, so you can't bully me like this!"

Li Natural screamed in pain like a cat with a trampled tail.

"Tsk, just because my father-in-law is the Grand Marshal!

We built the arms and didn't sell them to the Taiwei Mansion. Do you want to use them yourself? Isn't this little marquis need to spend money to make connections?

There are also civilian gunpowder, I will design various usages. I have designed 'matches, fireworks'... This little marquis has spent his brains, it's very hard, okay?"

Chu Tianxiu said.

Li Natural was speechless, and he didn't see that Xiaohunhou had no time to work hard in his eyes.

He has always been busy with this gunpowder!

Forget it, Xiaohunhou’s backer is too strong, and the Taiwei’s mansion still manages arms.

He is an old Taoist priest, but he can't beat the government.

"Forget it, let's just let's get 37. I'll go back and build a gunpowder workshop in the past two days."

"Just in Jinling City, find a place with a little less residents. Don't blow it up again and hurt people."

Chu Tianxiu and Li Nan discussed the matter of the gunpowder workshop with the old chariot of Li Nan, and then got on the carriage of the Prince Ping's Mansion and returned to the Prince Ping's Mansion with Zuer.

"Zou Er, go to the newspaper office from Changle Street. There is an important news that they want to print the newspaper overnight and send it out tomorrow morning."

"Yes, son-in-law!"

...

The next day.

In Jinling City, when the first ray of dawn shone on the imperial capital of Chu.

"Dibao, Dibao, "Dibao"!"

"Late last night, the emperor and the princes and court officials made major decisions to implement the imperial examination system. Allow scholars all over the world to take the initiative to take office!"

Many vendors, carrying thick stacks of newspapers, walked around the streets and shouted excitedly along the streets.

"What?"

"How is that possible?"

"Boot-in-one?"

On the street, some Confucian scholars who were busy getting up early were shocked when they heard this important news and quickly bought a copy of the "Da Chu Mansion Newspaper".

This front page headline clearly states that "The imperial examination system officially implemented the "Imperial Examination System"" is written in detail on the policy of the imperial examination system.

Oh my God!

Unexpectedly, it was true!

The court has lifted the ban!

All scholars are allowed to bootstrap themselves, and no more bullshit recommendations are needed!

Suddenly, the entire Jinling City was in full bloom.

The Confucian scholars waved the "Da Chu Mansion" in their hands, roaring on the street, blushing and tears filling their eyes.

"Jia Sheng, big news, big news!"

An old Confucian scholar rushed to Jia Sheng's house excitedly and knocked on the door.

"Who!"

Jia Sheng was dressed in disheveled clothes and looked sleepy, but he saw that it was Wu Sixian, a famous scholar in Jinling, who had always been very close to him.

He looked puzzled, "Brother Wu, what's the matter?"

"Brother Jia, the court discussed late at night last night and decided on a major incident! The court officially implemented the imperial examination system and allowed to bootstrapped himself. Go away quickly, the "Da Chu Di Daily" has been published!"

The Confucian scholar said excitedly and ecstaticly.

The news in the "Da Chu Di Daily" is almost certainly true.

Xiaohunhou even published the news that the Confucian scholars scolded him in a complete manner, and this news must be unfair.

"What...ah?"

Jia Sheng was stunned and couldn't react.

What's the situation?

He quickly put on his cloth shoes and followed Wu Sixian to the streets of Changle.

But I saw that the streets of Changle were full of Confucian scholars and many scholars.

Countless scholars held up the "Da Chu Mansion Newspaper" and howled loudly, cried bitterly, shouting that the emperor was merciful, and the sky had eyes.

Those people who were confused and confused thought that something sad had happened when they saw their appearance.

Among them, some are in their prime at the age of thirties and forties, and some are even in their fifties and sixties.

They were born into landlords and wealthy families, but because they were not the eldest son of the family and could not inherit their family property, they had to come to Jinling City from the counties of Dachu to find a way out.

But in this Jinling City, I have not seen any good way out for many years.
