Chapter 145: Farm Boy, Huang Tinghui(1/2)
"Are you talking about that arithmetic problem?" The prefect Wang Mingyang's eyes flashed with a strange look.
You must know that the prefect Wang Mingyang does not like articles, but he likes to delve into some "side theories".
Even in terms of martial arts, the civil service group could not find anyone who could match Wang Mingyang.
Even some generals are no match for Wang Mingyang.
Wang Mingyang's shooting skills are excellent, which is well-known among the civil service group.
Now that he heard that Huang Tinghui was the one who solved the arithmetic problem, how could Wang Mingyang not be curious?
"Huang Tinghui?"
"interesting!"
"It seems that today's trip was worthwhile!" Wang Mingyang said with a smile.
"Shouren, I don't know you yet?" The county master Chen Sizhi looked at Wang Mingyang and said with a smile, "You don't like articles. I saw that there are scholars like you who are studying some side branches."
"Of course I'm overjoyed!"
With that said, the county master Chen Sizhi shook his head and said to Wang Mingyang: "But Shouren, you have to know that others are different from you!"
"He is a poor scholar and a farmer!"
"If he wants the carp to leap over the dragon's gate, he must pass the imperial examination to achieve the leap!"
"This is the only way he must pass!"
"If you take this path astray, then our Dasheng Dynasty will lose a talent!"
Chen Sizhi is Wang Shouren's old friend, so he naturally knows what Wang Shouren is thinking.
Therefore, he reminded him, which was like pouring cold water on Wang Shouren.
Although Chen Sizhi and Wang Shouren were both officials, the gap was huge.
After all, Wang Shouren's father was the number one scholar, and he also achieved the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.
Chen Sizhi relied more on his own efforts to pass the Jinshi exam step by step, and that's where he is today.
Although Chen Sizhi is better at speculation and understands the rules of officialdom better.
But it is precisely because of his experience that he understands what is the most important thing for a scholar like Huang Tinghui right now.
Wang Shouren was free and easy by nature and came from a strong family background, so he was naturally allowed to be a little extravagant.
But Huang Tinghui, from a humble family, couldn't afford to make a single mistake.
Chen Sizhi naturally did not want such a good young talent to be led astray by Wang Shouren.
Whether considering Chen Sizhi's own interests or Huang Tinghui's future development.
Chen Sizhi felt that he should support this talented scholar.
"Know!"
"I know!" Wang Mingyang said impatiently.
Wang Mingyang's interest dropped a lot when Chen Sizhi made such a fuss.
But he also knew the importance of the imperial examination to a poor scholar and a peasant family.
"Let him come up!"
"If you say it out loud, you will throw out the water, since you and I have already said it before!"
"Then let this person come up and drink with us!"
Wang Mingyang waved his hand and said to the county master Chen Sizhi.
"Then let me thank the magistrate in advance on behalf of this little guy!"
Chen Sizhi smiled and said to the prefect Wang Mingyang.
"You, you!"
"Not free and easy at all, not free and easy at all!"
Wang Mingyang pointed at his old friend and said to Chen Sizhi with a smile.
Chen Sizhi did not defend himself. He walked to the railing and looked towards the crowd, "Young man, we meet again!"
"Today, New Year's Eve, you can solve all the lantern riddles, which also shows that you and I are destined!"
"Come up here and have a drink with me and the prefect!"
The county master Chen Sizhi said to Huang Tinghui.
"The county master, the county master!"
"My lord of the county, I wish you good luck and good fortune! My lord of the county, I wish you all the best!"
"Master County, Happy New Year's Eve!"
Apart from anything else, although the county magistrate is somewhat scheming.
There are a lot of calculations!
But being an official is still pretty good!
At least it's popular with the people right now.
"Happy New Year's Eve, everyone!"
"After a few sticks of incense are burned, the fireworks prepared by me for the people of Ruian County will be set off!"
"These flames have cost me a month's salary. They must be extremely beautiful!"
"I hope you will celebrate this New Year's Eve festival with me!"
The county master also waved to everyone.
After hearing the words of the county master, the crowd became excited.
People, don’t they just like to see those good-looking things.
The county man paid for the fireworks with his own money, so they were naturally looking forward to it.
Different from everyone's reaction, the corner of Huang Tinghui's mouth twitched immediately.
Last time, Huang Tinghui took the lantern from the county master.
The county man also said that he bought the lantern with his own money.
Now it is the county master who has spent his own money to buy a lot of fireworks.
This county man’s pocket is really thick!
But I don’t know where the county master’s pocket came from?
As the saying goes: "One year of clear county magistrate, one hundred thousand snowflakes and silver!"
I don’t know if it’s true or not!
Huang Tinghui thought wickedly, but it was just a thought.
He knew that the county master was a person like this, and his family must have purchased a lot of land.
That is, the landlord class!
In the feudal dynasty, the landlord class was the foundation.
Therefore, those with official status will more or less be short of money.
Unless there are some beings who regard reputation as life.
Huang Tinghui naturally admires those people very much.
However, it is common for some officials to purchase land and become landlords.
At least Huang Tinghui does not think that he can live in poverty all his life.
He wanted to pass the imperial examination and enter the ruling class.
Don't you just want to make your own life and Lian'er's life better?
Otherwise what's the point?
His thoughts flew far away until Lu Daoming touched Huang Tinghui's arm, "Tinghui, what are you thinking about?"
"Go back to the county master!" Lu Daoming hurriedly said to Huang Tinghui.
After hearing Lu Daoming's words, Huang Tinghui collected his thoughts.
He bowed his hands to the county master on the railing and said, "Tinghui, do you dare to disobey your order?"
After saying that, the teacher stood in front of Huang Tinghui early. He smiled and said to Huang Tinghui: "Huang Xiaolang is amazingly talented. I really admire him!"
"Now the county master and the prefect invite you!"
"Huang Xiaolangjun, just follow me!"
After saying that, the teacher made a gesture to Huang Tinghui.
