The ancients used tea bowls to drink tea, and they even carried tea covers.

Normally speaking, serving tea without saying or drinking means serving tea to see guests. People with strong eyes will get up and say goodbye.

But in order to avoid misunderstandings, holding a tea bowl in the left hand and a tea cover in the right hand, flipping the floating tea leaves, which means that the other party is talking.

Shi Zhongkui understood what the other party meant, reached out his hand and took out a three-finger-wide wooden box on the table in the main position.

He took a few steps back without saying a word.

Seeing this, the county magistrate put down the teacup and opened the wooden box with a slightly changed face.

Take out a carved wooden folding fan from the inside.

After a while, several sounds of "Miu, Wonderful" came from the living room.

Shi Zhongkui could not see the 20 fans written on the fan, and the paintings of Xiangfei, brown bamboo, elk, and Yuzhu.

But judging from the county magistrate's love for a set of two sets of Yuzhu fans, the fan in Shi Daizi's hand is indeed a good thing.

This time I gave one hand, and the other hand was given to him by the county magistrate's distant cousin, the old man in the private school, before the county examination.

According to the old scholar who had already received the approval letter from the county magistrate and would go to the Ministry of Works to work as a minor official soon, the carved and wood folding fan of jade bamboo is not so expensive that it is only 200 taels of silver per hand.

But it is said that the people who painted the above were not only famous calligraphers of the previous dynasty.

There are also several famous calligraphers and painters of the same era on the fan, and one of these famous masters is the ancestor of the county magistrate.

The old scholar asked Jia Quan to come to inform him that his real purpose was the fan in Shi Daizi's hand.

This also shows that Shi Daizi has good things in his hands. Many people know about it, and many people even know about the inscriptions and seals of someone on the fan.

The old guy also knew that Shi Daizi was more important than life when he saw the fan of his family, so he never thought about forcing him at the beginning, and he was not qualified to force him.

After all, he is just a scholar. If Shi Daizi is forced to death and has no fan, he will not be able to continue running a private school even if he doesn't have to sue.

After all, no one dares to send his children to study under a teacher who forced his disciples to death.

After tentative testing, he decided to give up when he saw that Shi Zhongkui had not moved for more than 40 days.

It was not until Shi Zhongkui carried a pack of 50 kilograms of thick noodles that came to his door again, and after careful examination, he confirmed that Shi Zhongkui's knowledge would be fine, not to mention the county exam, even if he was a scholar, he would be fine.

Then he made up his mind to recommend it to the county magistrate, and then he went around with Shi Zhongkui in the mist.

Fortunately, Shi Zhongkui was not the Shi Daizi he used to be. After thinking about it carefully, he finally understood it.

At the same time, he also realized that the old scholar can only be considered a person who is good at studying and learning skills. Compared to Jia Yucun, he is simply a good person.

Since the old scholar got what he wanted, he brought a letter to the Ministry of Works to be a clerk.

The county magistrate retrieved the treasures left by his ancestors. Shi Zhongkui's examination results were really the first, and the top five were still fine.

After that, of course everyone was happy.

And it was a big joy.

To be honest, the county exam is basically familiar with the Four Books, and the Five Classics are not tested at all.

In other words, as long as you memorize the Four Books, you can basically pass it.

But in this way, some people with white hair have not even passed this level.

The first in the county examination was the first, and it was not considered a glorious family, but the first was the first, and Shi Zhongkui was also well-known in Daxing County.

Unfortunately, no one cares.

To compare, it’s like when you get the first place in elementary school entrance exams, and you will forget it in a few days.

But if you receive the prefecture examination and the hospital examination are the first, then you will be the little Sanyuan.

The provincial examination, the imperial examination, and the palace examination are also the first, so it is called Da Sanyuan.

There were only two people in the entire history of Liu Yuan and the first, and only one of them won six Yuan in a row.

This is the true academic master. No one can match it.

Of course, Shi Zhongkui thought about getting a small three yuan, a big three yuan or something.

But in addition to your own level, the palace examination depends on luck.

However, if you are a small three yuan, you will be the first in the provincial examination.

The emperor might want to create a lucky fortune. Six yuan is the most auspicious auspicious one.

Think about it, in the Red Chamber world, there is a Supreme Emperor above the head of the current emperor, and this is really possible.

With this expectation, let alone two fans, if the prefect is willing, Shi Zhongkui will immediately send another set of fans.

"Zhongkui, I see that you don't have any words yet, right?"

Shi Zhongkui bowed and said, "I dare not hide it from the elders of Enxian County. The elders in the family died early, but they really didn't have the chance to get the teacher's teachings."

The county magistrate smiled. Although Shi Zhongkui didn't say it clearly, the word "teaching" all expressed his meaning.

"Since that's the case, how about this county give you a Bo Qian?"

Shi Zhongkui thought for a moment and couldn't help but think that this county magistrate who looks 3 or 40 years old is still very good.

Zhongkui's character Zhong is homophonic with Zhong.

There is a meaning of winning the championship in one fell swoop.

Bo between Bo Zhong means first and Zhong means second, and all the words Bo are indeed very suitable.

The most important thing is the word "human".

Kui said to Qian that he should be humble and polite while winning the championship.

This is definitely the meaning of expectation, it is not necessary to be a true gentleman.

But the attitude of the ancients towards characters was not only the teacher’s expectations of him, but also an important way to make people leave their first impressions.

The importance of a character is much more important than the name given by parents when they were still young.

In the future, in the officialdom, letters between relatives and friends, articles and paintings, I will use the surname and characters.

In other words, the name Shi Boqian will be used much more times in Shi Zhongkui's life in the future.

"I thank my teacher for giving me a gift, and the students are courtesy."

Shi Zhongkui pulled the hem of the robe with both hands and shaped it in a regular manner.

Seeing that he was so tactful, he could see through it at a glance. The county magistrate smiled happily and said, "Get up."

"Thank you."

Yu Honggao doesn't care whether the cheap students are busy with business or whether they don't really recognize themselves as their teacher.

His purpose is very clear.

Use a fan to plan a higher official position for yourself and leave Daxing County.

Shi Zhongkui didn't care whether this cheap teacher was decent, nor did he care whether he was planning the ancient fans in his hands.

Unless he is a teacher during the examination, he is the examiner who is the chief examiner who is the Jinshi.

Although the examiners of other science and technology exams are named as masters and apprentices, they are not as strong as they imagined.

If this teacher has no future, it is nothing more than giving gifts during festivals and letters such as thanks.

On the contrary, it is different.

So to put it bluntly, this kind of relationship is just looking for wings and the other wants to find a backer.

If something happens to the teacher, you can help you run away without paying yourself for him.

Of course, if you have justice and believe in the truth, or have ulterior motives, that's another matter.

Yu Honggao thought Shi Zhongkui was not even a scholar, so he could not have thought that far away.

But I never thought that a modern person would not be so easy to return to someone.

Even if you remember the other party’s kindness, most of them just look for opportunities to return it.

Moreover, such people are already great people.
