Chapter 129: Blowing Three Qins
"Dalang, this is the best tea that the boss bought from the market. Please try it," the uncle smiled charmingly and presented more than ten tea cakes. ()
This is how arrogant they are at first and respectful. Students from Yanzhou moved into Dasheng Inn. Some time ago, the inn was a little contemptuous.
But as a result, three people were beaten, one of them was still the third place. The shopkeeper of Dasheng Inn regretted breaking his intestines, which was the real bad karma. What should I do? So I gritted my teeth and bought valuable Jiancha to curry favor with it.
"Don't use it, don't bother me for no reason, I'm very grateful." Wang Ju said with a frown in displeasure.
"Yes, yes," Uncle bent down and retreated.
"Where do you see a person with a dog's eyes?" Luo Zeng said contemptuously.
"Don't worry about them, the palace examination is about to begin. Everyone should hurry up and study." Wang Judao.
Wang Ju started to study hard again, no, it should be hard writing.
Don’t think that if you have a good ranking in the provincial examination, you will definitely be a good ranking in the palace examination. For example, in the Fanzhen period, the provincial examination was Huiyuan, and there was only 79th place in the palace examination. But according to the Song Dynasty rules, the name of Huiyuan had not appeared even after the third place. Huiyuan could protest, and forget about the top three, but I am Huiyuan, so I will give me at least one first or second place in front of the second, which is the top ten. Fanzhen did not make any statement, and the world is beautiful and thinks it is moral.
In fact, this grievance is worth it, and I can’t compete for the top three. What’s the difference behind it? Big guys remember that it will rise quickly in the future, isn’t it the same?
This also shows the luck of the top 100. If Su Dongpo takes the exam again, he may be able to pass the top scorer, and he may be even worse than that exam.
The palace examination was held in Chongzheng Hall of the Imperial Palace.
Moreover, the test questions are relatively simple. Without the meaning of the scriptures and the strategies, we only try one poem and essay theory.
But for Wang Ju, it was a fatal matter, and poetry was his shortest place.
There was no other way to do this, so I had to try my best to write it. The more I wrote, the more familiar he became. As long as he didn't fall into the fourth grade, he would be satisfied.
I wrote poems for a day in a drowsy mood and ran out to have a meal.
Suddenly a man at the next table asked, "Is Xiaolang a security guard Wang Ju?"
"Yes." Wang Ju said calmly. Many people have come to visit him these days, not only students who want to communicate with him, but also some people who want to catch their son-in-law. So Wang Ju asked Li Wan to guard the door and coaxed them out.
"I have a pair here, I wonder if Xiaolang can match it?"
Wang Ju did not answer, and the man said to himself: "The autumn wind blows the three clears."
Wang Ju looked at him strangely, Sanqing, needless to say, Yuqing, Shangqing, Taiqing.
Maybe he pronounced it wrongly, it should be that the autumn wind blows on the Sanqin, which is reasonable.
But it was easy to be correct, but when he thought of the answer, his face changed and he stared at the man.
The man smiled and left.
"Freaky," Luo Zeng said.
Everyone didn't pay much attention. The capital city is big and there are all kinds of people. Zhang Desheng said: "We are going back tomorrow."
There were eight candidates in Yanzhou, three of them won for the first time, but five of them failed, so they had to go back. Wang Ju nodded and asked again: "What are your plans for going back?"
Xiang Zun said, "What else can I plan? Go back and teach seriously."
"The old man has always been good at morality, and he may be able to go to the state to study."
"God knows, but my family has suffered a lot, and I won't think about it anymore," Xiang Zun said. This provincial examination made him miserable, and the pressure was so great that he almost fainted in the exam room.
"I'll go back to study Zhu Jun and manage the family business for my father," Zhang Desheng said indifferently. Of course, he was still very upset. It would be fine if one of them failed. This time he passed the exam, but he didn't have his own ideas. How could he have no idea?
"I have this intention, too," said Wang Jun. His family is far inferior to the Zhang family, but it is still acceptable.
"I have the same idea, or I'll try it one day in the future." Luo Shixin said.
Only Ge Shaohua didn't speak bitterly.
Forget Xiang Zun, Zhang Desheng and the others still have the confidence to try, but he is almost forty years old and his family is not well off. Could he go back to be a teacher?
"Brother Zishen, come here." Wang Ju general Ge Shaohua shouted out.
"Brother Zishen, I have an idea in my mind."
"What's the idea?"
"I also jointly purchased some industries with several large households in Yanzhou City."
"Salt?"
"It's not salt, I'll hand over the salt by next year."
"That paper?"
"Yes, it's that kind of bamboo paper," Wang Judao. Even if he passed the Jinshi exam, unless he could rank in the top three again, it seemed unlikely. Unless he changed the poetry and essays into a strategy, and Zhao Shu might read the paper personally. He could guess Feng Jing's thoughts, but Zhao Shu's thoughts of rolling meat knife should not guess. Then the only one who puts it out is a small official, and the income of this bamboo paper will come in time. If it can be managed properly, it will be higher than that of salt. Of course, for the Zhao and Zhu families, especially the Zhu family, it may have less income and a high cost, but it is better in the long run and it is still a legitimate business.
Ge Shaohua was a little sensible.
"Brother Zishen, my family lacks a manager. If Brother Ge is interested, I want to invite Brother Ge to my house to do business. I still have many books in my hand. Mr. Ge can read it after the rest of the work. If you are sure, you can also come to the imperial examination in Beijing. I will never object."
Very good conditions.
"Wang Xiaolang, why did you pick me?"
"Because you have a calm personality, it looks quite like Zhu Huan, the head of the Zhu family."
"Zhu Huan?"
"Do you know why I got close to the Zhu family? Not only did Zhu Huan support me at the beginning, but there was another reason. Zhu Huan's business style is not too greedy for the small profits at the moment, but also has integrity. If he is really a profiteer, even if he supports me at the beginning, I will consciously alienate him in the future."
"I have an old wife and two children."
"Don't worry, I don't have much money, but it's still no problem to support a few people."
Ge Shaohua hesitated for a moment and finally said, "Ru Xiaolang doesn't dislike me, so I agree."
The main reason is that Wang Ju can basically make a name for Donghuamen, and in the future, he will be an official, not a merchant, which is very important.
"How old are your two children?"
"All of them are in their teens."
"So, you go back to Yanzhou first, and I will give you some money. You take your family to Hangzhou and go to the workshop to hire a loyal professor for me. My second uncle and a few brothers are there, and some young men in the village, but the workshop is only half a year, and it is not very busy for the rest of the year. Let the professor teach them to learn more words. If possible, teach some arithmetic and Song Dynasties, and promise them that if they learn well, I will ask my elder brother to recommend them to go to the county school and study hard for a while. After the arrangements are made, you come to me again."
"Okay." Ge Shaohua replied immediately.
But he said in his heart: Since I like me, then I will do something for you when I go back.
It went dark.
Wang Ju and Luo Zeng continued to study and sprinted for the last level, but the others each had their own thoughts.
"Who," Wang Ju heard Quan Er's eldest son shout.
Wang Ju immediately came out of the room.
"Dalang, someone is on the roof," said Quan Er's eldest son, and climbed to the roof with a tree beside the house.
"Lu Ping, take good care of my younger brother and sister for me," Wang Ju said, and climbed up the big tree. Over the years, he has been practicing physical exercises and learned some Song Dynasty boxing and archery techniques with Quan Er's eldest son.
But this is not for fighting, it is purely to exercise and combine work and rest. If he lies in books all day, even if he becomes mature, he will feel very tired. Especially this kind of Confucianism and poetry are not as exciting and moving as novels.
However, there are some effects, which are not good compared to sumo wrestling. If there is a real fight, even the strong boy of the Niu family may not be Wang Ju's opponent. For example, at present, he is extremely quick in his movements and quickly climbs to the roof.
Having entered the Wang family's door, Ge Shaohua couldn't help but shake his head, "Our young master... But I think it's funny. That's the main person who launched two battles at the age of thirteen or fourteen. Can the movements be unsuccessful?
Wang Ju climbed up to the roof and looked into the distance, but it was the end of the moon. There was no moonlight, only a little light, and you could see Quan Er's eldest son chasing down, but the man became a black dot, and it seemed that he could not catch up, so he came down,
At this time, the store owner was alarmed. Wang Ju was not interested in getting too much, so he said, "It's a thief."
Maybe it was a thief, but when Quan Er's eldest son came back, he gave a strange answer: "Dalang, I lost my pursuit, but I saw that man wearing a Taoist robe."
