Chapter 149 Tong Tianwang

Lin Tailai knew what Gao Changjiang was most concerned about at the moment, "After I sign up, I will summon all the leaders in Hengtang Town to hold a society meeting!

Then we will reorganize and plan the association, and then announce your appointment."

Gao Changjiang said inexplicably: "Why should I sign up for the examination? Isn't the government examination over?"

Gao Changjiang has not been with Lin Tailai these days, so he doesn't know what he is thinking about sitting in the restaurant.

Lin Tailai replied: "The literary exams are over, but the martial arts exams will start again in May."

Gao Changjiang: "."

Are you too busy sitting in the gym to think about participating in martial arts competitions again?

Lin Tailai explained: "The results of the government examination were released very quickly, so when the results of the government examination were released, I went to the county government to register.

Then go to Mudu Port to inspect the surrounding halls of the alliance to determine the future relationship!

After that, we will return to Hengtang Town to hold a club meeting to make detailed arrangements for future club affairs. Don’t be anxious, just stay calm!"

Although Gao Changjiang was impatient, he didn't bother to ask why he had to wait until the results were released.

If you understand the most basic human ways and sophistication, who doesn’t want to “show off” in front of others?

The low-level exam results were released very quickly. Two days later, just after May, the government exam results were released.

As expected, candidate Lin Tailai was on the list and passed the government examination.

Moreover, Lin Tailai is the leader of the case, so I don’t know if this is an accident or not.

When the waiter who ran to look at the results came back, he set off firecrackers at the entrance of the hall, so Lin Tailai, who was still sleeping, was awakened.

Lin Zuoguan let go of Madam Fan, who had come to hit Qiu Feng again, and came out of the inner courtyard yawning. Only then did he realize that he had been the target of the crime again.

Standing on the platform of the hall, Lin Tailai said subconsciously: "Do you want me to live on the fire in front of the mansion?"

Immediately, someone went to get the newly customized green shirt, ready to change into it, and then went to the National Accounting Office in front to accept the congratulations from his subordinates.

From today on, he is a child.

According to the original rules of the imperial examination in this dynasty, after passing the imperial examination, one must wait until he fails the Taoist examination and fails to pass the examination before he can be called a Tongsheng.

But people nowadays don't care about so many rigid rules. As long as they pass the government examination, they can be called a child.

Tong Sheng was not yet a scholar, and did not have the political privileges of a scholar, but he was given a little more subtle preferential treatment than ordinary people, which could be regarded as an encouragement to those who study and make progress.

For example, children can wear a green shirt as a formal dress (Lin Daguan had already overstepped this rule), and many local officials would also allow children to avoid kneeling when they receive them.

There is also a very affordable option: when filling vacancies for staff, priority will be given to selecting children.

Moreover, Tongsheng can also act as a backup choice for scholars in certain ethical occasions.

For example, when the social studies department cannot recruit scholars to serve as private school teachers, it can ask senior students to teach;

For example, in ceremonial occasions such as wedding banquets, if you really can’t find a scholar to sit at the head table, you can also invite an old boy to sit at the table.

It is said that there are still many old boys who have not been able to make progress for many years and have no future. They dare to form gangs and cause trouble everywhere, becoming local tyrants and causing headaches to local government offices. They are known as "Tong Tianwang".

Wearing a formal and unobtrusive gown, a freshly dressed Tongsheng named Lin asked Gao Changjiang: "How many famous people are there in Suzhou?"

After Gao Changjiang thought for a while, he replied: "The total number of students, candidates, and scholars in Wu County and Changzhou County should be about five hundred."

Lin Tailai sighed: "So, among a population of one million, I am the person with the highest academic qualifications among the five hundred people?"

Gao Changjiang said that it is fine if you are happy to sit in the restaurant.

Lin Tailai waved to the Zhang brothers, "Let's go! Go to the county government office to sign up!"

The group left the hall, crossed the moat onto the Wannian Bridge, entered Xumen, and then walked north along Xueshi Street named after Wang Guo.

Not long after, Official Lin arrived at the county government office, and everywhere he went there were smiling faces.

There were also many well-informed people who personally congratulated Mr. Lin on his promotion to Tongsheng.

Lin Tailai didn't chat too much with people on the road and went straight to the barracks, one of the six rooms.

At this time, the boss of the military building, Pang Sili, happened to be there. He was slightly surprised to see Lin Tailai coming in.

Because there is really not much overlap with Lin Tailai's business in the barracks.

Originally, Lin Tailai mostly dealt with the household housing and food department, and later the prison and ceremonial rooms were added.

Could it be that Lin Tailai wanted to place trusted personnel among the county government's strong squad, jailers or inspection department archers?

Lin Daguan said seriously: "I, Lin Tailai, a good citizen of Wutuluziwei, the 13th capital of this county!"

With a clean family background, no criminal record, and the determination to serve the country, come and sign up for the martial arts exam!"

Secretary Pang: "."

How does Lin Tailai manage to keep from laughing while telling these jokes?

Seeing that Secretary Pang was still stunned, Lin Daguan said displeasedly: "Can't I sign up?"

Secretary Pang came to his senses and quickly explained: "Of course you can sign up, but you didn't bring the guarantee letter.

The military examination guarantee letter needs to be issued by the head of the district where the household registration is located. Without this, the registration cannot be completed."

Lin Tailai had nothing to do. It seemed that he had to go home immediately, fulfill his filial piety, and write a letter of guarantee to the village chief.

But Secretary Pang gave a very considerate suggestion: "You should register your name today, and go through the necessary procedures first.

Just ask the head of the village to issue a letter of guarantee and then send someone to deliver it. You don't have to come back in person."

Mr. Lin is very satisfied with this service attitude. Who said that when going to the yamen to go through the formalities, you often have to run errands several times just to fill in the materials?

There are still many good officials like Secretary Pang who are enthusiastic in serving!

Just as he was about to leave, Lin Tailai was called over again by the magistrate.

Magistrate Deng's face was still so ugly, and in the courtroom, Senior Official Lin could only calm down his momentum a little.

Magistrate Deng spoke first: "The collection of summer taxes is about to begin."

Lin Tailai only answered one word: "Yes!"

The imperial court levied money and grain twice a year, in the first half of the year it was the summer tax, and in the second half it was the autumn tax. Of course, the autumn grain was the absolute bulk, and the summer tax was smaller.

Magistrate Deng reprimanded: "In the first, fifth, eleventh, and thirteenth cities in your jurisdiction, the collection of taxes in the past month has been extremely lax!

The collection of arrears from previous years has almost stagnated, far less than other churches!

If things go on like this, how can we get enough money and food this year!"

Lin Tailai muttered in his heart, "Asking questions knowingly". He didn't believe that Magistrate Deng didn't understand the situation.

It’s not because he, Lin Tailai, didn’t work hard because of his urging. Of course, there are objective reasons why this happened.

In the past month or so, there has been a crazy expansion, and the club's manpower has been used to occupy the territory. There is no spare energy to go to the countryside to collect data.

Magistrate Deng County called Lin Tailai here today. In fact, it was to warn him in advance not to delay the collection of money and grain this year.

Coming out of the courtroom, the Zhang brothers asked, "Should we hurry up and prepare to start collecting summer taxes?"

"No rush, no hurry! No rush this year!" Lin Tailai said calmly: "Because the county magistrate's term is three years!"

The Zhang brothers are confused, what does this mean?

Lin Tailai laughed and said: "If you default more this year, he will be anxious next year and the year after that! The more anxious he is to collect the payment, the more he will rely on us to help him!"

Zhang brothers: "."

Very good, very bad. At this moment, their restaurant finally looked like a local bully.

The legendary Child Heavenly King should be like this, right?

I forgot to ask for a monthly ticket yesterday, so I’ll ask for it today!
