February of the 120th year of the Dazhi Dynasty

It was another year of the Tongshi and Yuanshi examinations. He took part in the Yuanshi examination in Wuchun this year. During the Chinese New Year, he returned from Liaodong and never went back.

The day of the exam soon arrived, and Dadong sent Wuchun and Hebi to the exam room early.

He Bi is the grandson of the village chief He Guang. He had taken the exam before, but failed. Later, He Yao tutored him for a period of time.

This year he also took the exam with Wuchun, but he took the exam for a tongsheng while Wuchun took the exam for a xiucai.

It was the village chief who found Shen Ping and asked him to help send He Bi over.

Wuchun had made sufficient preparations for this exam. He had studied with Xu Hao before, and their teachers were those found by Lord Xu.

He was very confident about this exam because he had experience in a scientific examination before, so he was now even more confident.

He Bi had failed the exam before, but after being taught by his second uncle He Yao for a period of time, he made great progress and is now full of confidence.

Considering that this exam would last for several days, Shen Ping prepared a lot of good things for Wuchun.

There are vacuum-packed salt-baked chicken and braised pork offal, as well as pastries, instant noodles, and dry pancakes.

In addition, seeing that He Bi didn't have anything but some steamed buns and pancakes, Shen Ping also prepared some for He Bi.

Dadong sent them to the examination room and then came back. On the last day, Dadong arrived outside the examination room in advance and waited for them soon.

After so many days of exams, they were still full of energy and not tired at all. Dadong asked Wuchun how he felt, and Wuchun laughed: "I have a feeling that I will succeed this time!"

"Why, what about you?"

Then, Wuchun asked again why.

Hebi was also full of confidence and said that his uncle had roughly taught him how to solve those questions. Seeing how confident they were, Dadong also felt relieved.

The day of the announcement of the results soon arrived, and Dadong took them there early. Many people were already waiting there.

As everyone was waiting, the red list was finally posted, and the two began to look for their names on the densely packed list.

Dadong had nothing to do, so he squeezed in to take a look.

"I passed!" He Bi jumped up happily, and received many envious looks from the failed candidates.

Then, he turned around and looked at Wuchun, who was nervously looking for his name on the red list. Why didn't he help him look for it?

Finally, they both saw at the same time that in the third row under the column for scholars, Zhang Wuchun's name was clearly written on it.

"Wuchun, you've passed too. Look, your name is there!" He Bi jumped up happily and said, pointing at the red list.

“I see~”

"I saw it. I saw it too."

Dadong and Wuchun said at the same time.

Dadong said with joy: "Fifth Young Master, let's go back quickly. Madam will be very happy when she finds out."

"it is good!"

This time, Kaoshan Village was in an uproar again, and the village chief was extremely happy. He never thought that his grandson would pass the examination and become a student.

The village chief found Shen Ping and thought of hosting a banquet together with the two families to celebrate the fact that they both passed the examinations to become a tongsheng and a xiucai.

Shen Ping agreed without hesitation and said that she would pay for the banquet herself and invite all the villagers.

In addition, many customers and shop owners from workshops were also invited, and many people who wanted to build relationships came uninvited.

This banquet lasted for two days and two nights. Now, people from all over the country knew about Kaoshan Village, and the Kaoshan Group became even more famous because of them.

Everyone knows that Yu Yiren's son passed the imperial examination and became a scholar, and the village chief's grandson passed the imperial examination and became a student.

The villagers of Kaoshan Village are very confident in public, and it is much easier for young people from Kaoshan Village to get married. As soon as the other party hears that the person is from Kaoshan Village, they will agree immediately.

In August of the same year, the annual provincial examination came again. This time, He Yao was preparing for the examination and he put in a lot of effort for this day.

Now that he has a son, he is even more confident.

But ideals are full and reality is very skinny. In the end, He Yao failed the exam. However, good news came from Xu Hao in Liaodong.

Xu Hao passed the imperial examination and was ranked first. He left his name at the Ministry of Personnel, waiting for arrangements, which meant that he was about to embark on a career in officialdom.

When the news came out, Shen Ping was very happy. Now it was good, Wuchun could go there in the future and ask Governor Xu to help find the teacher.

This matter was soon put on the agenda, and Shen Ping immediately wrote a letter to Governor Xu, sending his congratulations and mentioning this matter in passing.

Soon, Shen Ping received a reply. Xu Mingchang agreed without hesitation and asked Wuchun to come as soon as possible.

Shen Ping immediately arranged for Dadong to take Wuchun there, considering the long journey. The round trip took nearly a month.

Wuchun was away for three years. During that time he only came back once, during the Spring Festival, and stayed in Liaodong the rest of the time.

After all, the journey was long, and Shen Ping didn't want him to be distracted and delay his studies.

During these three years, the Zhang family's workshops grew bigger and bigger. Shen Ping changed his thinking and business model, and opened many branches through the franchise model throughout the Dazhi Dynasty.

In addition, Lele also passed the examination for Tongsheng in the February examination of 121. Now Shen Ping is free and easy, and she basically doesn't have to take care of the workshop at home.

She has now let go completely and lives a free and easy life.

Shen Ping hired someone to build a wooden villa in Qingfeng Mountain, which she designed herself.

When she has nothing to do, she will go up to the mountain and live for a while. She doesn't need anyone to accompany her. Here she is high above, with fresh air, and lives a carefree life.

The villa is designed with two floors, all wooden structure, and painted with colorless and odorless varnish. The villa is surrounded by various flowers. Living here is like being in a sea of ​​flowers.

There is a large platform in front of the first floor. Looking out, you can see the whole Heyang. The formats of the first and second floors are somewhat similar.

There are two living rooms and six bedrooms, including a dining room and a leisure room. There is also a large balcony on the second floor and a small attic on the top of the second floor, which is used as a storage room.

There are large floor-to-ceiling windows on the first floor, and the curtains are all made of white gauze, which looks fresh and elegant. The furniture here is all in a unified Chinese style.

Not only that, Shen Ping also had stairs built from the bottom of the mountain to the top. Later, she had a sudden idea to turn Qingfeng Mountain into a resort.

Twenty single-family villas were built on the mountain, collectively called holiday homes. The toilets in these houses are all equipped with septic tanks, which makes them clean and hygienic.

These are high-end inns, specially for wealthy families or dignitaries to come and relax and vacation.

The design of this apartment is somewhat similar to the one Shen Ping lives in, and the decoration style is also similar, but it is smaller.

The beds and furniture used in this villa and holiday home are of the same style. She asked Carpenter Li to make them and then transport them up to be placed on the beds. All of them are installed with mattresses and covered with four-piece sets.

It is worth mentioning that this type of bed and mattress has become popular throughout the Dazhi Dynasty, as well as this four-piece set.

If any wealthy family still doesn't have this kind of mattress and four-piece set, they will be laughed at.
