Fu second generation upgrade system

The first test of the Tongsheng Examination is the county test, the second test is the government test, and the third test is the college test. Only by passing the college test can one become a scholar.

Tang Yi is now facing the first test, the county test.

"The county examination requires five candidates to guarantee each other. You don't need to worry about this. I have opened this bookstore for several years and know many students who study. I have found students with good conduct to be your guarantee. It has already been agreed. , but you still need a certificate from your village, let the Lizheng open when you go back, and come back immediately, our top priority today is to report your name."

"Yes." Tang Yi memorized the writing of the proof in detail, and immediately ran to the village.

He hurried back to the village, just in time to meet Wen Yan who had finished arranging the work of the workshop, and Wen Yan was taken aback, thinking something was wrong with him.

"Let's go, let's go to Uncle Zheng to get a certificate, register for the county exam today, and the exam will start at the end of next month."

Wen Yan did the same, and then became nervous: "So fast?"

"Yes, there are only three days to sign up. Shopkeeper Fu said to sign up today, to understand a concern, and to save another accident." Tang Yi said as he walked.

The two talked while walking, all the way to Lizheng's house, Lizheng knew that Tang Yi was here to issue a certificate to take the county examination, and he took it very seriously. He issued the certificate for him carefully, and copied it twice before stamping it.

Tang Yi thanked Lizheng, and ran all the way to the town. When he arrived at Boguang Bookstore, he found that the four examinees Fu shopkeeper had found for him were already waiting. These four examinees looked... ..Well......

Four pairs of immature big eyes stared at Tang Yi, it was also very "..."

The average age of the four children was 12 years old, which made Tang Yi very embarrassed, and suddenly understood those gentlemen who rejected him at the beginning.

But these are trivial things, as long as you can take the exam, let him go!

Shopkeeper Fu took five people, rented a carriage and rushed to the county government. The distance from the town to the county was not short. The six people and the coachman ate some dry food on the road at noon to satisfy their hunger. Tang Yi suddenly Thinking of something, he asked, "It's such a long journey to the county seat, how did Mr. know that the admission notice was released this morning?"

Shopkeeper Fu said nonchalantly: "General notices are issued in the first month, so I asked my servant to watch after the new year. As soon as the notice was released this morning, he came back and told me that I just received it when you came. News soon."

Shopkeeper Fu didn't feel at all how great he was doing. Tang Yi was moved and grateful, and being able to worship shopkeeper Fu meant the most honored thing in his life.

Looking at the envy in the eyes of the four children, Tang Yi became even more proud.

You must know that the husbands of the four children did not know the news until the shopkeeper Fu notified them. It is a long way from the small town to the county seat. When it was found that there were incomplete materials and it was too late to remedy, it was a pity to wait for a few more years.

So news is especially precious at this time.

The carriage creaked and bumped all the way to the county seat, and Tang Yi's eyes lit up when he got off the carriage.

The county seat is much more lively than the town. The streets are wide and grand, and the shops on both sides are mostly two or three floors. The decoration is extremely beautiful. With the arrival of the county examination, these inns will become lively, and the life here is many times richer than that in the town.

Shopkeeper Fu didn't even look at those bustling buildings, and led a few people straight to the county government office.

There are already more than a dozen people queuing up at the registration office of the county government office, and there are still a few who have come out. These are the ones who have completed the registration, and they all have relaxed expressions.

Shopkeeper Fu whispered, "Most of these are students from the county town. They get the news faster than the people below. Every year, some students from remote towns have to wait for another year because they missed the registration."

Tang Yi also whispered: "Then why don't you add a few more days for registration, or issue a notice in advance?"

Shopkeeper Fu shook his head: "You don't understand that. Judging from the selection situation over the years, most of the candidates who can be admitted are the candidates from the county seat and the surrounding affluent towns. These students often have better teachers to teach and learn things. There are many, and the level is relatively high, as for the students in poor towns..."

Shopkeeper Fu sighed: "It is difficult for a poor family to have a noble son, not only because it costs a lot of money to study, and poor families can't afford it, but also because of the difference in teaching level. The youngest scholar in our town is the one from the Lin family in your village. That was 20 years ago, too."

Tang Yi was only studying for the exam, and had no experience with these things. He was so surprised when he heard this. It turned out that the imperial examination was not so easy, and he thought it was really like a TV show.

I also feel a lot of pressure. Looking at the four children around me, they are also nervous and helpless.

Finally it was Tang Yi's turn. The master bookkeeper in charge of registration was quite surprised to learn that they were candidates from Dekai Town. He registered for a day, but he had never met students from a town so far away.

The master book is a stable person. Although Tang Yi and several people came from a remote town and dressed plainly, they were not taken lightly. The master book carefully checked the information of several people, registered them carefully, and asked five people to sign and register. Once you make your fingerprints, that's it.After the registration was successful, Tang Yi and the others felt relieved, and all they had to do was go back and prepare for the exam.

After leaving the county office, shopkeeper Fu did not take them back, but took them to an inn to book five rooms.

"The exam location is located in the county government office. This inn is close to the county government office, and the environment is not bad. You can stay here when the time comes, so as to avoid delays due to the long distance." Shopkeeper Fu urged: "It is cheaper to book a room rate now. Some of them will be more than doubled by February, and the inns here are very concerned about their reputation, so don’t worry that they will turn their backs on them when the time comes.”

"In addition, the time I set for you starts from three days before the exam, so that you can adapt to the environment in advance, in case you can't sleep well or eat bad stomachs when you come out of the county. You are good."

A few people did not have any objections. Shopkeeper Fu said everything was reasonable, and he thought it carefully, impeccably.

Tang Yi and the others booked a second-class room, which required two hundred Wen per day. The room was not too big, but fortunately, the bed was big, and the four young boys could be accompanied by their parents. Accommodation will cost two taels of silver, and meals and other miscellaneous things will be counted separately, which is not a small expenditure for ordinary farmers.

This is the price for these few days. If it comes to February, it will cost four or five taels of silver, and it may not be possible to book such a good seat.

The winter was short, and it was getting late after finishing these things. Shopkeeper Fu suggested going back early, and everyone had no objection, but when passing by a bookstore, the carriage stopped.

"This Shengdao Bookstore has been open for decades, and it contains a collection of answer sheets of outstanding candidates in the exams over the years. I suggest you buy a copy as a reference, it will be good for you." Shopkeeper Fu said.

A few people looked at me and I looked at you, Tang Yi got out of the car without hesitation, and then three children came out, only one named Duan Yunfei stayed in the car and did not get out of the car.

Several people walked into the book shop, and a young boy whispered to Tang Yi that Duan Yunfei's family conditions were not very good, and it was not easy to support him in studying, so he just waited for him to be admitted as a scholar to share the family's worries.

"You don't know, for the few taels of money for this accommodation, his family borrowed all the uncles and relatives to get it together. How expensive is this problem set? How can he have money to buy it?" The young man raised the problem set in his hand, He also bared his teeth to express the pain in his flesh.

Tang Yi flipped through the book of flipping questions, and it was done very delicately, and the content inside was not bad. It was a thick book, and many candidates would snap it up before the exam.Publishers also pinch this point to produce a set of questions, in order to raise the price and make a fortune.

A collection of questions requires five taels of silver.

There is a painting by Tang Yi on the top, which is really painful.

Tang Yi thought for a while, and on the pretext that he needed to buy other books, he paid for two collections and wrapped one collection in a cloth bag. The other children only thought he had bought miscellaneous books.

They all took the books and went back to the carriage happily. They couldn't wait to open the collection of questions and read as soon as possible. Duan Yunfei sat in the corner, holding the coarse cloth robe tightly with both hands, and wanted to get close to a young man to have a look. Unexpectedly, The boy tilted the book slightly, the meaning in it was very obvious, Duan Yunfei was very embarrassed, so he had no choice but to back it.

I've seen a few of the children before, and their personalities are passable. It's just that there is still more than a month to go before the exam, and something is revealed at this time.

Duan Yunfei studies hard and has always had good grades. For these children, he is a very strong competitor. During the critical period before the exam, he can read one less important book than others. More confidence, so even though the boy who tilted the book felt a little unbearable and his face was flushed red, he still did it.

When it comes to matters involving personal future at major nodes, the strength of character is not very important.

Tang Yi also covered his eyes with a book, seeing everything in his eyes but remained calm, and he didn't do anything unnecessary, and didn't want to hit the boy in the face at this time.

Sure enough, after a while, the boy realized that no one showed Duan Yunfei the book, and he felt more at ease, feeling that he was doing the right thing, and started to read the book seriously with peace of mind.

Tang Yi covered his face with a book, squinted at shopkeeper Fu from behind the book, and nailed shopkeeper Fu also looked at him deeply, so he looked down at the small cloth bag calmly, and shopkeeper Fu followed his gaze, Nodding slightly, twitching the corners of his mouth slightly, he thought that his students were really different.

The journey was silent and awkward. When we reached the town, it was already dark. The children got off the car at the agreed place and happily went to find their family members. Tang Yi said that he was already an adult, so he didn’t need to see him off anymore, he jumped too. Get out of the carriage.

Shopkeeper Fu and Duan Yunfei were the only ones left in the car. Seeing that he was the only one left, Duan Yunfei hurriedly said, "The student is leaving too." Just as he was about to get out of the car, shopkeeper Fu grabbed him.

Duan Yunfei turned his head, Fu shopkeeper said with a smile: "Your house is far away, I'm afraid it's not safe to go back by yourself, I'll see you off."

Duan Yunfei was very embarrassed, and said: "I'm used to walking at night, it's fine, Brother Tang left a cloth bag just now, I'll send it to him." He pointed to the blue cloth bag in the innermost part of the car seat.

Shopkeeper Fu smiled and pulled Duan Yunfei back, picked up the cloth bag, and said, "He didn't leave it behind, he gave it to you."

Duan Yunfei took the cloth bag suspiciously, shopkeeper Fu stroked his beard and said with a smile, "It's still half an hour away from your home, and you can read a book first while it's not too late."

Duan Yunfei's heart skipped a beat and he guessed a possibility. He tore open the cloth bag, revealing a brand new book of questions.

"Haha, look quickly, you don't need to pay it back, you Brother Tang is not a person who wants to repay you, and when you are admitted to Tongsheng, you still need to sponsor each other to take the entrance examination."

Duan Yunfei was very grateful, thanked shopkeeper Fu, and kept Tang Yi's kindness in his heart, and then he couldn't wait to open the collection of questions and read.

When Tang Yi returned home, it was completely dark, and the people in the village still didn't have the habit of lighting lights. It was pitch black everywhere, and you couldn't see your fingers.

Only at the entrance of the village there is a small glimmer of light the size of a bean sprout, which seems to be a guiding light to take people away and go home.
