Chapter 571 This is good

Before he knew it, six days passed. Wen Xiang, who was carrying the waist card, was so eager to learn. At the beginning, the two days came after the work was over in the afternoon, but later he simply stopped going home at night and lived in a bookstore.

Lin Qingyuan, Wang Agui and others are translating every day, but no matter how fast the translation is, they cannot catch up with him. Many places that have been read but cannot understand are listed, so I asked Enjun and Datou to submit it to Han Xiufeng. I would like to ask Han Xiufeng to send it to those who are specializing in inquiring about the situation. If I have nothing to see, I can tinker with the Western artifacts in the exhibition hall, especially if I like to dismantle the hand guns and firebulls cast by the Western artifacts.

Every time Han Xiufeng sees the list he sent to Datou, he has a headache. After all, Lin Qingyuan, Wang Agui and others are all "two swords" who became monks halfway through. It is okay to simply translate foreign newspapers. It is worth relying on them to translate the mountains of Western books piled up in the library, especially those books about mathematics and the principles of studying things, which is tantamount to let Datou take the top scorer.

Thinking that he couldn't always know the truth but didn't know why, Han Xiufeng simply asked Qingxian to translate the list listed by Wenxiang into a secret language, and then asked Enjun to send two major tickets to the semicolons stationed in various places in the "Houyitang", so that Wang Naiteng, Yun Qijun, Jiang Zhengxin, Gu Jinyan, Fugui and others could quickly find a way.

Wen Xiang knew very well that this was even more difficult than compiling the "Siku Quanshu" during the Qianlong Dynasty. He knew that haste would not be able to achieve it, so he simply put down the mathematical science, astronomy, geography and extraordinary principles of Westerners first, and worked with a chief officer who had just come to the "Houyi Hall" from the Russian Pavilion of the Lifan Academy to specialize in the history of Britain, Mi, Buddha, Russia, and the Netherlands.

Han Xiufeng was happy to see that he was successful and did not want to disturb them. He had just returned from the bookstore to his inner courtyard and was about to clean up the study and go back to the inner house to wash his feet and rest. Yu Youfu ran to report with a post that someone asked for a meeting.

Who would ask for a meeting in the middle of the night?

Han Xiufeng felt very strange, and took the famous post and looked under the candle. He couldn't help but look up and smiled, "Welcome to the guest to the study room to speak."

"Come here?" Yu Youfu asked subconsciously.

"I'm not an outsider, just see you here."

After waiting for a while, a Confucian scholar in his forties followed Yu Youfu in. When he saw Han Xiufeng, he bowed and said, "Students met Mr. Han, and they were disturbed late at night. Please forgive me."

"Mr. Huang, don't need to be polite," Han Xiufeng asked while greeting him and laughing: "Mr. Huang, it's been a year since Shanghai left, is your Dongweng?"

Wu Jianzhang's friend, Master Huang, hurriedly bowed: "Thank you Mr. Han, my Dongweng is still safe."

"You are doing well in Shanghai, why are you here to the capital?"

"Is this the end of the year? My Dongweng ordered me to go to Beijing to worship you for his early years." Mr. Huang took out a stack of silver notes from his sleeve and respectfully presented them, and bowed and said, "Then my Dongweng knew that you like Western objects. After Mr. Wang left, he collected some and ordered me to send them to Mr. Han."

Han Xiufeng picked up the silver notes and looked at them. He estimated that there were five or six thousand taels, and pondered: "It's so much to do at one's own move. It seems that your master is doing a good job in Fujian's tea deal this year."

Master Huang was stunned and immediately reacted: "I didn't expect that Mr. Han, you know the little business of my Dongweng."

"More than 100,000 dan, fifty-five ships were loaded. Most of the tea in Wuyi Mountain this year was taken away by your Dongweng. It's hard to make such a big noise!"

"Mr. Han, this is a serious business, and I have paid a lot of money for the tax I should pay."

"The tax is paid a lot, but the Guangdong Travel Gang, which originally operated Wuyishan tea and the porters who had to transport Wuyishan tea to Guangdong had no food. But then again, why should we go to buy nearby, and why should we spend that money if we can buy nearby?"

"Mr. Han said, it's really not easy to make some money in this messy world."

"The reason why I told you that these things have nothing else is just to remind you that the fall of Dongweng in Shanghai is not over yet. You must be cautious in doing things in the future and never be arrogant."

"Thank you Mr. Han to give me some advice."

"By the way, did you just arrive at night?"

Master Huang finally breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly: "Mr. Han, Wansheng arrived at noon yesterday. I only found out that you live here today. I thought that all the yamen were inspecting Beijing these days, and I didn't dare to come to see you during the day."

"You are cautious, but I am different from others. Since I am walking on the military computer, I will not participate in the Beijing inspection of the Tongzhengsiya Office as usual."

"Mr. Han has a good official career, and my Dongweng will benefit from it." Master Huang hurriedly bowed.

"Stop talking about this, what are the things your Dongweng asked you to send?"

"They are all in the inn outside the city, with a total of 12 boxes. In addition, they also brought you forty firebuzzers, all of which are fire hats."

After seeing the urgent report from the Fujian sub-community of "Houyitang", Han Xiufeng realized that "selling chickens" had been dismissed, and why he was still uneasy, and he still had to donate his official position. He even worked in Shanghai to deal with foreigners. Because he was still doing a daily money-making business, it was much more convenient to do an official position.

Because of this, Han Xiufeng accepted the silver notes openly, picked up the teacup and said, "I will send someone to pick up the twelve boxes of Western objects later. As for the forty firebuzzers, I have to ask you to help me send them to Zhuozhou."

"I dare to ask Mr. Han, where are the students going to send those guns to Zhuozhou?"

"The Zhuozhou Prefecture Judgment Office will be handed over to the current Zhuozhou Prefecture Judgment Master Qianli Wang."

"As for orders, the students will do it tomorrow morning." Seeing Han Xiufeng delivering tea to the guests, Master Huang stood up tactfully and prepared to leave.

Han Xiufeng did not rush to let him go, but asked him to go to the doorman with Yu Youfu first, and asked Xiaoshandong to find Feng Xiaobian and Feng Xiaobao brothers. Then he went to the bookstore again, and asked Datou to call on two guards on duty tonight. When the Feng brothers arrived, they asked everyone and Master Huang to transport the things back to the bookstore overnight.

Everything was arranged and returned to the inner house. The little guy was asleep, and Qin'er was placing the soles of her shoes under the candle.

"Why haven't you rested?" Han Xiufeng asked with a smile.

"Isn't this waiting for you?" Qin'er hurriedly put down the needle and thread, got up and lifted the kettle on the stove, poured some into the washbasin, then put down the kettle to bring the wooden basin for washing feet.

"You are pregnant, so you can't get angry. I'll do these things."

"It's okay, it's not heavy." Qin'er put down the wooden basin and urged him to wash his face, and smiled: "Fourth brother, Cuihua asked again in the afternoon when to give the child a name. She said that her daughter is not as good as a boy, but she can't even have a name."

"Her child wants to name him, why ask you?"

"She thought the name of Big Head was not nice, so she wanted to ask your uncle to help you pick it up."

"Don't she have two Hanlin brothers? Besides, her two sisters-in-law have never been here."

Qin'er smiled and said, "She originally wanted to ask two Master Ao to help her take it away, but her two sisters-in-law said that Master Ao and the others were going to the Hanlin Academy every day during this period. She didn't want to bother her two brothers because of this, so she told me."

"Big Head's kid, let Big Head get it by himself."

"Fourth brother, just help the baby get one. The girl's boudoir name is not the boy's big name. Just help with it."

"Pick it any?"

"Well, her room is still light and waiting!"

"Okay, then just take one." Han Xiufeng sat on the chair and took off his shoes and pondered: "Her name is Cuihong. Their hometown is full of Fenggang and rivers everywhere. There are many lotus flowers growing in the pond in the rivers. Her baby is called lotus flowers."

Qin'er was ridiculous and couldn't help but shake his arm and said, "Lotus is too casual, let's talk about Lotus, our hometown has Lotus! Fourth brother, be serious and help me get some literary style. You will know that it's the kind of lady in the official family."

"Then let's go to lotus, it's not stained with mud, and it's not charismatic in clear water, it's just lotus, isn't it enough to be literary?" Han Xiufeng turned around and asked with a smile.

Qin'er thought about it and asked with confusion: "Fourth brother, is Lotus and Lotus the same?"

"When people who are ignorant of the people call Lotus, and when scholars call Lotus, don't she want to be literary? Lotus is so literary!"

"Green lotus, lotus, green flowers, it doesn't sound at all elegant, so it's better to call it Lian'er."

"It's okay to call Lian'er, but Lian'er sounds like a lotus flower."

"I'll ask first. Just say yes, just say yes, by the way, what did that monster just now say? Let me say it again, I can tell her."

"From the sludge without being stained, wash the clear water without being charming!"

"Yes, yes, just these two sentences, it's not stained with the mud, and it's not charming when washed in the clear water. Remember, I'll tell her now!"

Qin'er happily opened the door to find Cuihua, and Han Xiufeng couldn't help but smile.

After washing his feet, he poured the foot wash water into the yard, put the foot wash bucket, took off his clothes and got into the quilt, hugged his son who was sleeping soundly and kissed him. Thinking of the stove being sealed, he was about to get up to seal the stove, Qin'er came back happily.

"Fourth brother, Cuihua said that the name Lian'er is good, not to mention how happy he is, and he also said that he would ask the second master to help him write it and write those two lines of poetry together."

"It's good that she's happy."

Qin'er sealed the stove, took off her clothes and got into the quilt, and asked curiously: "Fourth brother, what is Jingcha? The afternoon before yesterday, Mr. Jiang's house came to visit Cuihua. He said that Mr. Jiang had to go to the yamen every day these days, and he could not go home until the breaking shift."

"Beijing Inspection is... to examine the officials of each yamen in the school. This official is incompetent. Once every three years, the examination is divided into three methods according to the size of the official position. The first one is called listing questions. Any third-rank official or above Beijing official or above, or below the Secretariat; the governor, governor and minister of Shengjing or above must be given the merits and demerits of the three-year term. The Ministry of Personnel will release a list of resumes to submit to the emperor, and then the emperor will personally examine it and follow the orders and briefly judge."

"Where is the second minute?"

"The second type is a Beijing official below the third rank, a bachelor of the cabinet, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, a bachelor of the lecturer of the left and right Chunfang son and a minister of the three courts of the Interior Affairs Office. The Ministry of Personnel and other yamen issued a resume list and introduced it to the decision. The third type is called Huishen, Fanhan, Zhan Kedao, and the doctors of each department, the head of the cabinet, the secretary of the cabinet and the secretary of each department. The officials of each department will give the notes and examinations, and then the Ministry of Personnel, together with the Grand Secretary, the Censorate, the official department will finalize the draft and prepare the booklets and examinations respectively. Moreover, during the Beijing inspection, all officials will not be promoted until the examination results are obtained before the decision will be made."

Seeing Qin'er seemingly ignorant, Han Xiufeng patiently explained: "There are differences in official positions, such as complex, complex, fatigue, and difficulty. Whether the officials in the Beijing exam are competent, talent, politics, and year, also known as the "four squares". Guard means an official's ethics, which are divided into four levels: Qing, cautious, flat, and calm. Talent means talent, divided into long and flat two levels; political means diligence is the official's diligence and diligence is the second level; year means age, divided into green, strong, and healthy three levels.

Those who are "shouqing", "talented", and young and strong in the school are called "diligent" and are called "diligent" and are ranked first; those who are "shouqing", "talented" or "talented", "talented" or "talented" and are ranked second. Those who are "shouqing" or "shouqing", "talented" or "talented" and are ranked third. Officials who are first-class in Beijing can not only be re-listed, but can be released or re-appointed after introduction."

"Where is the second-class person?" Qin'er asked.

"Don't expect to be promoted or released from second-class people."

“Where is the third class?”

"Beijing Chase third-level, maybe it will be demoted, but it's nothing. I thought the record of adding grades could be donated for money, but the most feared thing is demotion. If you can't even get into the third-level, then it will be a big trouble. Maybe you have to go back to your hometown by taking a bedding!"

Qin'er thought about it and asked again: "Where are you, how many times can you take this time?"

"I walk on the military commander's Beijing extras and will not participate in the Beijing inspection as usual." Han Xiufeng smiled and continued: "What's more, even if I participate in the Beijing inspection, even if I can get a first-class position, I will not be promoted to an official position in the Beijing."

"Why can't you get promoted?" Qin'er asked again.

Han Xiufeng smiled and said, "Because the bigger the officials, the fewer the fewer the officials, the fourth-rank Beijing officials are only in the cabinet, the bachelor's attendant, the bachelor's attendant, the bachelor's attendant, the bachelor's attendant, and the Imperial College Prison's priest. Those who are from the Imperial College Prison's priests may not be able to be in the Jinshi. Only Hanlin like Mr. Huang, Mr. Ji and Mr. Ao have the chance."

Qin'er murmured: "Not to mention Hanlin officials, it's not that easy to take the exam for scholars!"

"Yes, I have no hope in my life, I can only count on our dog."

"Fourth brother, do you mean that you can only be the current fifth-rank Tongzheng Department? "

"This is not to say that there is no hope for getting promoted to the fourth rank in Beijing, but if you have the opportunity, you can be released. If you can be released as a prefect, you will be released as a prefect." Han Xiufeng thought for a while and said, "If you just want to be a fourth rank, it is easier. If you spend money to donate, it's just that, but it's not interesting to spend money to donate. Even if you can make up for the lack of a prefect, you will still be looked down upon."

Thinking of finally settling down, Qin'er hugged his arm and smiled, "It's good to be the fifth-rank senator now."
