Then he said to Yuan Shuzhi: "Old Yuan, in this case, let's be companions and take the exam together. We just need to stagger the positions when registering, so as not to end up killing each other. You don't have a fixed place to go now, so why not just stay here?
Working in the middle of the tea, firstly, we can get along day and night and learn from each other; secondly, you can also earn a few pennies to spend and have a living..."
Yuan Shuzhi shook his head and said: "I still have some money, and I'm very grateful that you don't want my tuition. Helping your tea house is my duty as a disciple."
"Okay." Zeng Juan said, "That's it, don't call me Kunren of the Ming Dynasty. False Ming is false Ming. The chief of Australia is the chief of Australia. Since you want to be called an official of the Song Dynasty, you have to change the title first.
Come here, I heard that interviews will be added this year. Don’t say that you are used to being bald. If you mess up the rules, you may be in danger!" Yuan Shuzhi hurriedly replied: "What Zeng Xiandi taught me is that you should remember that you should take the exam carefully.
He is a Kun—no! He is a Jinshi from Australia!"
So Yuan Shuzhi used the remaining money from medical treatment to pay the Zeng family's rent and accommodation money, and lived in the Zeng family behind Wanshengju - in fact, this was not Zeng Juan's house, but the house of his ex-brother-in-law Cao Xueguan. Huang Ping was
After his brother-in-law passed away, his mother moved in openly in the name of "taking care of her grandson". However, his father was busy selling candles and still lived in the original home. Although the Cao family has several distant relatives in the clan,
But because Zeng Juan had Li Ziyu as his backer, no one dared to come.
The Cao family's residence was much more luxurious than that of the Zeng family, and there were many houses. So they rented an apartment to Yuan Shuzhi.
During the day, Yuan Shuzhi kept accounts and wrote water signs for the tea house, and at night he studied and discussed with Zeng Juan. He wrote essays according to the content in the study materials, memorized common sense, and did mathematics. After entering Zeng Juan's house, he could not leave the house.
With no door open, I spent all my time preparing for the civil service exam.
The content of the Australian-Song Civil Service Examination is extremely complex, but it is not without rules. Especially the language comprehension, logical reasoning, quantitative relationships and data analysis all have rules to follow. As for the single entrance essay, it is quite similar to the past policy essay.
, the review is nothing more than using more allusions and viewpoints that Australians like.
The first time he looked at the Australian theory textbook, he was confused. It didn't take into account the Confucian classics such as the Four Books and Five Classics. They were all miscellaneous subjects. At first glance, they looked a bit similar to the Mohists. For example, the logical reasoning was based on the "name of the Mohists".
As for those economics, science, etc., they are all things of the Mohist school. Of course, it is not only Mohist, but also has many legalist views, such as this Australian sage who thought so hard about it.
Freedom is not unrestricted freedom, freedom is the power to do anything permitted by law." This is obviously something from the Legalist school, and there are even some things from political strategists and peasants in it, but it only touches on Confucian learning.
There are very few. It seems that this Australian has a lot of opinions about the Holy Master!
Thinking of this, Yuan Shuzhi set the first tone for Australians' "examination of public affairs": "non-Confucianism and suspicion of ancient times."
Yuan Shuzhi hadn't felt so alive for a long time. Since he had a goal, his whole person seemed to have come alive again. It seemed that the power of this belief should not be underestimated. Two sentences written by himself hung on Yuan Shuzhi's desk to encourage himself:
"If something goes wrong, it will come true. Even if the cauldron sinks the boat, a hundred and three Qin Pass will eventually belong to Chu. If you work hard, the sky will not fail you. If you sleep on your salary and taste your courage, three thousand Vietnamese troops can swallow Wu." Zeng Juan was also infected by the old scholar's enthusiasm, and secretly
Competing with Yuan Shuzhi. Zeng Juan's mother was also very happy to see such an atmosphere in her home. They prepared meals on time every day and delivered them to their room. When they went to get the bowls, they often found that the food had not been touched and had already been cold.
The situation is so clear, you will really be immersed in it if you forget yourself while reading it!
The only fun the two had after studying was to play with Myung Nyeo. After Myung Nyeo was rescued, the court arrested Myung Nyeo's stepmother and sent her to Jeju Island. It also changed the guardianship from Cao Xueguang to Zeng Juan's parents.
——Cao Xuegang paid monthly living expenses. Cao Xuegang clamored for a lawsuit, but he died as soon as the plague came. Now even the house and shop have been occupied by the Zeng family. The Zeng family's family situation has naturally improved a lot.
The two elders of the Zeng family and Uncle Zeng Juan naturally devoted all their treasures to their three nephews. At the same time, Li Ziyu and Zhang Yu doted on them very much, buying them clothes or food, and raising the three little ones to perfection.
, round and cute and tight.
Yuan Shuzhi loves to play with children. Whenever he plays in the yard, he always plays with Ming Nu, Hua Zai and Cheng Zai. Despite his age, Yuan Shuzhi is still an old child, playing various small games with Ming Nu.
Ming Nu called Yuan Shuzhi "Grandpa". From a distance, the two of them looked like grandsons. One time Ming Nu said, "Grandpa, let me ride as a horse..." Yuan Shuzhi lay on the ground and carried Ming Nu all over the yard.
Climb, Mingnu's grandma was very angry when she saw it, and she came over and wanted to beat Mingnu. Yuan Shuzhi quickly protected Mingnu behind him and panted: "No blame, no blame, don't blame the little girl, I am teasing her myself.
, Don't blame me." Sometimes Yuan Shuzhi also taught Mingnv how to read. He said, "Little girl, you are also educated now... I will give you a test. How do you write the word fennel for fennel bean?"
Mingnu racked her brains and thought, Yuan Shuzhi waited for a long time and said sincerely, "Can't you just write it?... I'll teach you, remember! These words should be remembered, and you will need them when you become someone's daughter-in-law, when you buy groceries and keep accounts.
." Finally Ming Nu thought of it and said happily, "Is it the word "hui" that goes back and forth under the grass?" Yuan Shuzhi looked extremely happy, tapped the long nails of his two fingers on the table, nodded and said, "Yes, yes, yes.
!...There are actually four ways to write the word "hui", did you know..."
On this day, "Yangcheng Express" published the civil service recruitment notice. After being involved in the owner Wan Shenglu Teahouse, he subscribed to "Yangcheng Express". Firstly, it could be read by tea drinkers and he could also serve as a "narrator" - this
It is also an important means to attract tea drinkers; secondly, it can also keep abreast of Australian policy trends. People like Zeng Juan have begun to realize the importance of information.
Getting this extra examination paper is like finding a treasure. Because it not only lists all the departments, positions and application requirements for the recruitment in detail, but also provides detailed explanations. It is nothing more than an "application guide" for those who want to take the public examination.
Yuan Shuzhi and Zeng Juan studied the newspaper carefully in the evening, looking for positions that met their application requirements. There were really many job openings this time. He first saw the police recruitment: the conditions were still very low, but he wanted to
It would be too much of a loss for me to compete with those rough guys for my health. It seems that the position in the tax bureau is the most suitable for me: he has been doing business with his parents since he was a child, and he is very good at abacus. This newspaper said that he can do abacus.
Priority was given, and I heard from Li Ziyu that the Taxation Bureau was one of the most powerful departments in the Senate, and it was a promising unit with good pay and plenty of salary and salary. So I secretly decided to apply for the position of tax administrator in the Taxation Bureau.
But Yuan Shuzhi was in trouble. He was dazzled by so many positions. Australians still valued him for being literate. But he was not suitable for the position because he was older. So he asked Zeng Juan to help analyze. Zeng Juan
After looking at it, he was asked to choose between civil affairs or environmental sanitation. Yuan Shuzhi thought about it. The civil affairs department is naturally the department that manages the livelihood of the people. It has great authority, but it is not easy to take the test. He has no advantage in competing with those young people. The environmental sanitation bureau
It is equivalent to the cleaning room in the palace. It is responsible for some messy things. But after all, you are an official. You don't have to do it yourself. You only need to direct and direct the people under you. I'm afraid it's not possible to be a little boss in the yamen.
The problem is, those applicants may not be willing to apply for this humble labor position, which is convenient for themselves, so Yuan Shuzhi decided to apply for the inspector of the Environmental Sanitation Bureau.
Looking at the application requirements again, this time the recruitment is different from the last police recruitment, with the requirement of "academic ability". Anyone with Ming Dynasty honors, no matter what kind, will be regarded as "the same academic ability as a B diploma", such as social studies, elementary school
Children who are born and have not achieved academic status are regarded as having "the same academic ability as those with a C diploma".
This "same academic ability as Type C diploma" roughly meets the application requirements for most positions. Zeng Juan and Yuan Shuzhi both passed this threshold.
In addition to the requirement of "academic ability", the Baojia in the place of residence is also required to issue a certificate confirming that the person is a permanent resident of the Baojia, and then go to the local police station to get a seal. It does not require a Baojia. Yuan Shuzhi has not been able to do so because he has no fixed address.
Register household registration.
"It doesn't matter," Zeng Juan said, "I will register you under the employee collective account of Wanshenglu Tea Set tomorrow according to the "employment of workers" regulations."
The problem of household registration was solved, but it was difficult to go to the police station to apply for the certificate. Why, because the application requirements clearly stipulated: "No criminal record." Yuan Shuzhi had been dealt with for theft not long ago. This no criminal record was considered a direct
He brushed it.
Yuan Shuzhi sighed and lost the energy to read. Zeng Juan also felt very disappointed and was thinking about how to comfort him. Suddenly an idea came to his mind and he asked: "Old Yuan! Did you report it when you were dealt with by the police station?"
Transfer account?"
"At that time, I had no fixed place to live. Where did I get my household registration? When I first opened my household registration, I only applied for a temporary household registration in the temple where I was staying. Later, the monk kicked me out and everything was gone."
"That's easy to handle!" Zeng Juan said, "Since you didn't register your household registration at that time, you just ended up with a baseless Yuan Shuzhi. You can register your household registration tomorrow and change your name to Yuan Shubian.
yes."
This is a good idea. Yuan Shuzhi hesitated and said: "But many people know about my crime. There are many people in Tea House who know."
"You don't understand this. The first thing the government does is read the documents. As long as the names on the documents don't match, who can say you are Yuan Shuzhi? You are Yuan Shu!"
