In the morning, in Xiyang City, the doors of the streets opened one after another. The guys took off the door panels, swept the inside and outside, and prepared to welcome the crowds of guests. The same was true for the guys at Qian's grocery store.

Qianjia Grocery Store operates various daily necessities. Because the owner has a connection, he can get a lot of knitted goods, so his business is becoming more and more prosperous, and he is starting to lack manpower and is thinking about recruiting workers.

At the same time, we have to process money for the guys, so now the guys in the store are very energetic and open the door early in the morning and sweeping is particularly neat.

There is a shopkeeper in the Qian family's grocery store, four guys, one of whom Huang Dao is working as an accountant, and he is now wiping the abacus at the counter, and he is wiping and fighting.

The sound of the plan is a bit noisy, but for the guys in the store, the louder the abacus, the more prosperous the business is. The sound of the Huang Dao Plan is particularly nice, and the guys all regard this sound as music.

Huang Guo just passed his 20s this year and is from Mianyang. Because of her family and many brothers, she couldn't make a few bites of food in Mianyang, so she came to Xiyang, Huangzhou to "work" and support herself.

He worked in Qianjia grocery store for five years, both as a servant and a servant. In addition to being busy in the store, he also had to go to the boss's yard to do chores from time to time. However, the boss no longer needed Huangguo to help him in the past two years, because Huangguo has a specialty - arithmetic and also serves as an accountant.

Huangzhou has now fully promoted abacus. The Chamber of Commerce often holds free "promotion classes" to promote abacus. Huang Guo went to listen to it several times and soon got started. Seeing that he was enlightened and had a good character, the boss paid the tuition and asked Huang Guo to enroll in a "improvement class".

In addition to studying abacus in depth, students in the "improvement class" also need to learn new accounting methods. In fact, this "improvement class" is an accounting training class.

This "improvement" is amazing. After Huang Dao graduated, he not only calculated the accounts quickly and accurately, but also became more obsessed with abacus learning. He saved money and bought abacus books to think about it himself. The more he thought about it, the more he became more and more diligent he could understand it when he went to the state to study and listen to abacus class.

Qian Dongjia was very satisfied with the changes in his guy Huang Dao. Seeing that he was honest and honest, a rare opportunity was right in front of him, so he encouraged Huang Dao to sign up for the selection exam.

The selection examination is to hold the examinations of the government to select talents to become officials. The court recaptured Henan. It was the time when people were hired. The government decided to hold the examinations in mid-February this year in the second half of last year to select talents to become officials in Henan.

Although this official position is not very high and is mostly a minor official of Cao, he is always an official.

Being an official is something that countless people dream of but have no chance. Now that the government holds exams, the registration threshold is not high. Many people sign up, trying to change their family's fate. Huang Dao also signed up after being encouraged by his boss and took the arithmetic exam.

Today is the day to "release the results". The government will publish the list of candidates selected.

Huang Dao, who was planning to plan, was patted on his shoulder. When he turned around, he saw the smiling shopkeeper Li.

"A Dao."

"Ahhh...Shopkeeper, I'm wiping the abacus, not being lazy..."

Manager Li still smiled and said in a very kind tone: "A Dao, you, what time is it now?"

Huang Dao looked at the wall clock and it was now "7:45", so he breathed a sigh of relief: "Shopkeeper, isn't it still early? The results were released at exactly 8:00, and I'll arrive in five minutes."

"Okay, okay, hurry up and go to the state school. If you go late, you can't squeeze in."

Manager Li took the abacus away and pushed Huang Dao out of the counter, signaling a guy to approach: "Wu Liu, take A Dao with you, hurry up and study in the state!"

The guy named "Wu Liu" responded silly, pulled Huang Dao and ran out.

The two ran on the street and headed towards the state. At first, Huang Dao felt that there was no need to be so anxious, but gradually realized something was wrong: the closer we got to the state, the more people there were on the street.

Gradually, Huang Dao and Wu Liu could no longer run because there were too many people on the road.

When they finally reached an intersection away from Zhouxue, the two of them could no longer squeeze in because although the road was still smooth, some soldiers of the government held hands and pulled up a wall of people by the street. If they wanted to see the list, they had to queue up to see.

Huang Dao stood on tiptoe and looked at Zhouxue from a distance. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: the open space in front of Zhouxue was crowded with people. At first glance, there were heads everywhere. It was simply delusional to squeeze over in a short time.

There are too many people, and something will definitely happen if you squeeze in. The officials and officials held paper loudspeakers and kept shouting "Line to see the list". In front of the wall of people raised by the officers and soldiers, everyone lined up honestly, and lined up long "human dragons".

The bell sound came from the provincial school. It was the bell tower of the provincial school. The "time call" was reported by the "man and dragon" in the municipal school. The officials were roaring at the top of their lungs when they saw this. They shouted: "Line! Line up to see the list!"

The team was moving forward, and Huang Dao's heart thumped. Although he didn't think he could win the election, there were always expectations, let alone after the exam that day, he felt that he did a good job.

There was a hustle and bustle in front of the list, as if someone was crying, someone was laughing, and some didn't know whether they were crying or laughing, listening to the movement, Huang Dao became more and more cramped.

Looking up, I saw several huge signs erected on both sides of the main entrance of Zhouxue, with notices posted on them, and words were densely written inside. I thought it was the list of selected lists.

Huang Dao only felt that his breathing was short and he was about to walk steadily. After accidentally stepping on someone beside him, he quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"Ah, it's okay."

The man smiled and didn't care. Huang Dao looked at the other party. This man looked less than thirty years old, wearing black uniforms, should be a soldier. He looked upright, had a strong body, and his eyes were bright.

Huang Dao and this young man were just looking at each other, and they couldn't help but feel irritated: This person's aura is much better than that of the Qian Dongjia!

"What are your doubts, brother?"

Listening to the young man's question, Huang Dao apologized again. The man learned that Huang Dao was a candidate for this exam. Now he is looking at the list and bowed with a smile: "So that's it, I wish Brother Huang to high school."

It turns out that this young man is also a candidate, and he is also looking at the list today, but he did not do well this time and had no hope of being on the list.

The two had a great time talking and followed the team forward. From time to time, they saw someone being carried out by soldiers because of fainting. The list became more and more lively, with cries and laughter mixed together, which made people feel mixed emotions after hearing this.

Before he knew it, Huang Dao came to the front of the list. Seeing that he looked up at the name on it, he was so nervous that his forehead was sweating.

This government examination selects talents to be officials, and a total of 150 people were selected in the math department. The list of candidates who have been announced is ranked according to the rankings. Huang Dao starts from the first place.

As he looked at him, he became more and more nervous. A laugh suddenly came from his ears, but a candidate who was selected cried with joy and danced on the spot, then shouted and ran out, attracting envious gazes of countless people.

Huang Dao looked at the list and looked at the names, but those were not his names. His companion Wu Liu opened his eyes wide, but he was blind: he was illiterate.

As he looked at it, Huang Dao still couldn't see his name after ranking one hundred.

One hundred and twenty, one hundred and thirty, one hundred and forty, one hundred and forty-five, no.

Huang Dao sighed. He felt that he did not have the ability to win the election. He felt a little disappointed. He was about to turn around and leave, but was pulled by the Guanzhong candidate beside him.

"Brother Huang, congratulations."

"Why?"

Huang Dao was a little puzzled, and then followed the direction pointed by the candidate and looked at the list again. At the end of the list, the four words "Mianyang Huang Dao" were written.

Huang Dao rubbed his eyes and looked at it several times. After confirming it, he felt his head blank and he was spinning.

He was elected, and he was going to become an official.

Her eyes turned black, and Huang Dao's legs were about to fall to the ground as soon as she was weak. She was supported by her companion Wu Liu. The official who had already shouted hoarsely walked up helplessly and asked Wu Liu who was helpless: "Have you chosen your companion?"

"Ah?" Wu Liu was stunned when he heard this, and he never came back to his senses. The official asked about the name of the fainted person, but Wu Liu even said something unscrupulously.

"This candidate, Mianyang Huangdao, 150." The Guanzhong candidate next to him said. The official nodded, looked at Wu Liu, and smiled: "Congratulations, your companion was selected."

"ah?"

Now it was Wu Liu's turn to have a blank head and was as stupid as a chicken. Seeing this, the official shook his head and looked at the Guanzhong candidate again. The other party was wearing military uniforms but claimed to be a candidate, which made him curious: "Don't you be satisfied with the election?"

"Hi, the name is yellow rice."

The candidate smiled and walked straight forward. The official found that several people in the crowd were briskly following and followed the man to the main gate of the state school.

At this time, soldiers were guarding the main entrance of the state school, and officials were holding a list to strictly investigate the personnel entering and leaving the state school. At this time, there were important personnel in the state school, so except for doctoral students, "faculty and staff" and students, the rest of the people must find out their identity when entering and leaving.

The soldier saw a young man in military uniform coming over and reached out to stop him: "Please stay and explain..."

The officials beside him were so shocked that they almost couldn't get the list in their hands when they saw the man's appearance. They quickly stepped forward and saluted: "Big... King! The official has seen the King!"

The man nodded, looked at the helpless soldier, smiled, patted the other party's shoulder, and then continued to walk inward. The soldier was confused and looked at the official who was sweating on his forehead.

"Look, what do you think? Can you tell who this person is?" The official said this and lowered his voice: "It's King Bin!"

"Soldier King?"

The soldier was a little confused when he heard this. He couldn't figure out what kind of king the king was. The official suddenly felt that he was playing the piano with a cow: "It's the famous King of Xiyang!"
