The Road to the Imperial Examinations of Farmers in Ancient Times

After coming out of the newspaper office, Li Wen waited for someone in the upstairs wing of a tea house across the street.

When he came here today, he still had something to say to Shen Zijing and Su Yuan. There were too many people in the newspaper office and it was not suitable for them to talk, so he came out here and waited for them.From upstairs, he could just see the entrance of the alley opposite, and he saw the two of them as soon as they came out.

Shen Zijing looked up, saw Li Wen standing by the window, waved to his friend, and led Su Yuan to the opposite teahouse.

Li Tong was standing at the door to meet people, "Master Shen, please go upstairs, Master Su, our young master is waiting for you upstairs

"Knock Knock-"

"Come in."

Hearing the voice, Li Wen knew that it was Shen Zijing and Su Yuan who came up.

"Haha, I was wondering how long it would take for you to come out, and here you are. How are you doing in the newspaper office?" Li Wen went up to meet them, greeted the two of them, and served tea, and the three of them sit down and talk

The three haven't seen each other for a while, mainly because everyone is busy.But now that they are all in the capital, it is much more convenient to contact them than when the two places were separated before.Although they don't see each other very often, their news exchanges are not lacking at all.

During the first few months when they first arrived in the capital, Shen Zijing and Su Yuan were quickly familiarizing themselves with the environment of the capital and integrating into this new environment.

So far, it seems that the two have adapted well to the new environment.

Shen Zijing talked about some things they did in the newspaper office. They came into contact with a lot of things in the newspaper office. In just a few months, Shen Zijing felt that they learned more than what they had learned from reading books for half a year, " If I had known earlier, A Yuan and I would have arrived in the capital long ago."

"Haha..." Li Wen listened, nodded and smiled, "I thought of this when I suggested you join the newspaper office, so that you can get to know the capital faster." The newspaper office is a place where news gathers. You can get access to all kinds of information, big and small, in the capital.

At that time, he asked Shen Zijing and Su Yuan to go to the newspaper office for the purpose of letting them learn and adapt in the past.

After rubbing his hands together, Li Wen returned to the topic, feeling a little nervous, "I'm here today, and I want to ask your opinion on something else."

"Oh, tell me, what's the matter." Shen Zijing signaled his friend to continue talking.

Su Yuan sat aside and looked at Li Wen.

"Some things that happened in the DPRK recently, your newspaper office will probably know a little bit of news..." Li Wen talked about some things that happened in the DPRK and China recently. These news have not been released to the public, so he did not send someone to the newspaper office , "...they didn't agree with the land reform proposal, so I proposed the business reform later."

However, the newspaper office has sources of information, Xiaoshizi is well informed, so I don't know if Shen Zijing and Su Yuan have heard anything about the court in the newspaper office.

They are good friends who have known each other for more than ten years. Based on his understanding of his friends, Shen Zijing could hear something. He asked, "So...you actually did this on purpose, right?"

Li Wen smiled slightly and nodded, "Of course, it would be even better if they can agree to the land reform." This is a gamble, and it's okay to win if you can win the bet, and it doesn't matter if you lose.If the land reform is carried out first, the problem of Dacheng can be solved from the root, without having to make a big detour.However, taking a detour is naturally not without benefits. If business is used to stimulate the economic development of the entire Dacheng and fill the shortfall in the national treasury, it will also solve the land problem in turn.

The issue of land will be brought up again sooner or later, but not now.

Li Wen didn't mention that he had encountered several assassinations. Anyway, he's fine now. Speaking of it would make his friends worry, so he didn't mention it. "The proposal from the Ministry of Commerce was passed early this morning. , Get the emperor's instructions.

But... I want to tell you the truth, there is currently no other member of the Commercial Department except me, so I came here today to ask you two if you would like to come to the Commercial Department? "

At present, he is the only commander of the entire department of the Ministry of Commerce. To set up a new department is definitely not as simple as he thought. He is ready for a long and hard struggle.Now he is looking for a few like-minded teammates who are willing to work with him.

The Department of Commerce is a new organization independent of the Sixth Department. It is not clear whether it can gain a firm foothold in it. Whether it can do well and whether it will be successful is unknown.It is precisely because the Ministry of Commerce is independent from the Sixth Ministry, so the people in the Sixth Ministry will not want to see this new organization established and the rights in their hands taken away.And he recently

The hall has drawn a lot of hatred for himself, and he is afraid that someone will trip him up later.

"You just got used to the newspaper office, so I asked you to come to a new place...cough cough..." Li Wen rubbed his nose, feeling a little embarrassed.

This matter is related to the future, Li Wen did not hide anything from his friends, so if you have anything to say, just tell the truth,

"...I can't guarantee to you whether the Department of Commerce can be established and how long it can last. But one day when I am here, I will definitely do my best to establish this department and continue to operate it."

Otherwise, if he worked so hard to build a department, it wouldn't be a waste of time for this department to die out soon.In that case, he might as well be honestly waiting to die in the six movies, why would he work so hard?In fact, as early as years ago, he had a vague idea in his mind, but at that time his idea had not yet formed, it was just a vague concept.

Until now, his ideas have gradually matured, and he has come up with a reasonable plan and plan. He wants to build a new department, to change the current structure of the imperial court, and to change the current situation of Dacheng.And after his hard work, the emperor has agreed, and the ministers in the court can't stop what he wants to do.He has put his political future here. If he does well, he may be promoted. If he does not do well, he may really want to go back to grow sweet potatoes.

However, this matter is related to the future, not only his own future, but also the future of others, so Li Wen has to make it clear to others, and formally invite Shen Zijing and Su Yuan, "So, I am now I formally extend an invitation to you, are you willing to come?"

But whether others are willing or not, he respects other people's opinions.

"Of course, if you like the newspaper office, you don't have to come here. However, if you are willing to come, I welcome you very much..." Seeing the two people staring at him and not speaking, Li asked. Thinking that they had hesitation and worries in their hearts, they said, "Or do you want to go back and think about it, discuss it with your family, and then answer me?"

He doesn't mind.

He still has to go to the Ministry of Officials tomorrow to chat with the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, otherwise he doesn't know how long it will take until the Ministry of Officials assigns him personnel.

He urgently needs to find people now, and the reason why he invited Shen Zijing and Su Yuan over is because Shen Zijing and Su Yuan are capable, and secondly, they are good friends for many years. They know each other well and have a tacit understanding. It's better to work with people you know than to start from scratch with strangers.This is also the reason why he came here in person today and solemnly proposed his invitation.

"No, no... You said too much at once, let us digest it first." Shen Zijing heard too many things in his head at once, and before Shen Zijing had time to digest, he saw his friends mistakenly thought that they didn't want to go, he was busy Explained, "...you let us think about it first."

After arriving in the capital, they naturally understood that this is a place where political topics are sensitive, and a word a scholar says in a public place may affect his career.Now that they are in the capital, if they want to take the path of official career in the future, everything they do now may affect their future political path, and they still know this.

After listening to Li Wen's words, Shen Zijing naturally knew a possible consequence of their joining the commercial department.

They didn't take part in the previous examination, but planned to take part in the next one. Li Wen entered the imperial court as an official three years earlier than them.But at that time, he was going to take the test with his friends, and the test results would definitely not be as good as Li Wen and Lu Zhishu, so this is why they had to settle for three years and prepare to take the scientific test three years later.

While they were concentrating on studying and preparing for the scientific examination, Li Wen and Lu Zhishu had already entered the court.During their nearly half a year in the capital, they were all clear about what Li Wen did in the court hall, and it was because they were so clear that Shen Zijing was envious and wanted to be like Li Wen and Lu Zhishu. do something

And now that Li Wen invited them, Shen Zijing knew that this was an opportunity for them.

"If you are worried about taking the test, you don't have to worry about it..." Li Wen thought that Shen Zijing and Su Yuan had this concern, so he said, "After one year, you can still take the next scientific test as usual .With your current grades, it is definitely not a problem to get into the top two.

At that time, three to six months in advance, I will formulate a set of devil training for you before the exam.As long as you follow what I said, I can't guarantee you whether you can enter the first-class ranking, but it should not be a big problem to enter the top two. "He remembered the [-]-day devil training before the college entrance examination in his previous life, and he could move it over and use it at that time.

Of course, Shen Zijing and Su Yuan also need to have this strength. He will conduct a devil training in advance, and he can improve their performance in a short time. "Of course, I'm not guaranteeing you..."

There are always accidents. In case of Waterloo in the examination room, it cannot be counted on his head.

Li Wen blinked his eyes, with an innocent expression on his face.
