Hua Shao looked at Mr. Cao, the Minister of Household Affairs, and his mood finally improved a lot.
He glanced at everyone present coldly and straightened up arrogantly.
He has already opened up the joints of the examiner this time, and others are nothing.
When Mr. Cao looked towards Hua Yanxi, Hua Shao mistakenly thought he was looking at him and nodded at Mr. Cao as a matter of course.
Master Cao ignored him and lowered his head to sort out the things in his hands.
Although Hua Shao felt strange in his heart, he thought about it and realized that Master Cao was doing this to avoid suspicion. This kind of thing really cannot be noticed by others, so he didn't think about it any more.
The requirements for today's review are very simple. They are the result of everyone's deliberation. Those who participate in the selection need to have a general understanding and plan of the salt merchant business.
"Here is a sign tube with a total of six questions in it. Everyone can write and answer according to the questions on the sign. The results of the answers will be reported to the Holy One for final review three days later." Minister of Tobe said, holding up a hand
The lottery tube came to everyone in turn and asked them to draw lots one by one.
Originally, Hua Shao was sitting first, and he should be the first to draw lots, but now his current position has been disrupted.
Lord Cao had talked about this part of drawing lots with him in advance, and had marked it on the lot tube. He only needed to follow the marks to draw the result that he had already known in advance, and then write down the article written by someone else silently.
.
Hua Shao was afraid that someone would take away the marked lots in advance, so when the waiter came down, he stood up first and said to everyone: "Everyone, I will draw the first one first."
Sign and hope for a good fortune."
Although others are a little disgusted with his behavior, they are a person of status after all, so they will not stop him.
But after he finished speaking, Hua Yanxi said: "Father, this is not good, you are taking away the good luck. If you win in the end, it will make the others dissatisfied. Let's do it in order, so that no one will suffer. Everyone
What do you say?"
Seeing that someone spoke first, several others naturally agreed.
Hua Shao's face darkened and he could only sit back down.
The drawing of lots started with the three opposite numbers, and when it came to Hua Shao, there were only two lots left.
He stared at the lot, wishing to penetrate the lot, but he couldn't find the difference between the two lots. There was only one reason: the marked one had been taken away in advance.
Hua Shao could only hope that he could draw one that was similar to the original question. His hand was shaking back and forth between the two lots, and he couldn't make up his mind.
Seeing this, Hua Yanxi spoke again: "Father, there are only two lots left. It doesn't matter who you draw. Anyway, it's either yours or mine, so why worry about it."
Suddenly someone said sourly: "Isn't that right? The whole family is here to compete. Do you still care who gets which one?"
Hua Shao was so embarrassed when he was told that he took one out and took a look at it. He handed it to the waiter with a dark face, and the waiter handed it to Ye Juechen behind him, who counted the questions each person got.
Hua Yanxi held the last lottery in her hand and whispered in surprise: "It's such a simple question. It seems we have great hope, father."
Hua Shao stared at her: "You're done, aren't you?"
Hua Yanxi was full of innocence: "I just share the joy with my father. It seems that the lottery that my father said is in my hands."
Hearing what she said, Hua Shao's face turned even darker.
Ye Juechen took the signature from Hua Yanxi's hand and looked at the calm Hua Yanxi with a strange expression.
You dare to say that it is easy to get this lottery. This woman is really good at talking nonsense. Is she knowing that she can't answer the answer, so she starts to confuse the public?
If you don't choose this when the time comes, you won't be laughed to death.
In fact, this signature is the most difficult of all the questions.
Just when Ye Juechen was about to transcribe the question, Hua Shao suddenly said: "Wait a minute."
"Let's change the topics for the two of us." Hua Shao said with a calm face.
Hua Yanxi was surprised when she heard this and said: "Father, this is inappropriate. This is the result of everyone drawing lots, and you drew it first."
"Since you said we are a family, who answers which question differently?" Hua Shao used Hua Yanxi's previous question to reply to her.
Hua Yanxi was full of grievances, pursed her lips and said: "I don't have any objections. Father's orders cannot be violated. As long as a few adults agree, I can have any objections."
The other four people naturally disagreed, and all looked at the Minister of Hubu.
Mr. Cao glanced at Hua Yanxi and his daughter, and after receiving Hua Yanxi's hint, he nodded: "Since you are a family, it doesn't matter if you change the topic, but for the sake of fairness, the other four can also change each other.
"
When Hua Shao heard that they could exchange with each other, thinking that Mr. Cao still took care of him, he was about to open his mouth to exchange with one of the four people. Unexpectedly, before he could open his mouth, he heard Mr. Cao say: "But it's only for the four of you."
exchange."
Hua Shao: "..."
Forget it, Mr. Cao also wanted to maintain fairness, so it would be nice to change Hua Yanxi’s simple question.
However, when he saw Hua Yanxi's question, he almost wanted to hit him to death.
The original question was relatively broad, and I could still write it successfully, but now this question is impossible to hit without any target.
"You actually said this question is easy!" Hua Shao wanted to throw the signature stick directly onto Hua Yanxi's head.
Hua Yanxi was surprised when she found the signature that originally belonged to Hua Shao: "It turns out that my father's question was easier. I thought the people in the Ministry of Revenue were very strict in setting the questions, but I didn't expect that each question was easier than the last.
"
The pun not only disgusted Hua Shao, but also insulted the person who asked the question.
The person who asked the question, Mr. Cao, dared to be angry but dared not speak out.
"I won't change it anymore, please return my signature to me." Hua Shao said, reaching out to grab the signature from Hua Yanxi's hand.
Hua Yanxi dodged dexterously: "Father, this is an assessment. It is a very serious matter. How can I just change it? I have already changed it once. You have already seen my questions. If this is really the case, it is not as good as
Just ask Mr. Cao to open the back door for you and choose whichever course you want, or we just don’t take the exam and just recommend you."
As soon as Hua Yanxi said these words, she immediately expressed the thoughts of several people.
"That's right. If you want to change the question, you can change it. If you find it difficult, you have to change it. Why don't you just ask Mr. Cao to send you the answer directly?"
"I've never seen someone so shameless. He just brought his own woman to help him, but now he's going to do it in front of us. Do you really think we're dead?"
Several people spoke to each other, and Hua Shao couldn't hold his head up.
But Hua Shao still refused to give up and looked at Mr. Cao: "Mr. Cao, I feel that since the signature has been chosen, it should not be changed at will. I can't disturb your arrangement, so I might as well change it back."
Master Cao felt disgusted when he heard these shameless words, and shouted angrily: "If you want to take the exam, take the exam, if not, get out now! Why are you the only one with so many things to do!"
