After being politically qualified, looking at his writing and argumentation, it should be said that it is quite remarkable. The analysis and argumentation are quite innovative - it is difficult for ordinary old literati to have such insights. He should be a person with a little "Macao Studies" accomplishment
This kind of person is "actively demanding progress" and should be tilted in the rating.
As for the shortcomings, it is nothing more than a limited level of lucidity in the writing, and there are some typos and incorrect sentences. However, the writing and science are smooth and can be understood by people with lower educational levels. Therefore, there is no need to worry too much about the writing, science, and diction.
Zhang Yunmi finally severely criticized the naturalized cadres and told them that people should not judge certain things because of their own likes and dislikes. The more they face such a situation, the more they must uphold their public conscience. At the same time, he also said to the cadres who have surrendered to the old literati, everyone
We are all Australian officials and we must unite sincerely because there can be disputes over work. Our Senate supports "let a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend", but it would not be good if it escalates to a personal attack. There are four ways to write "chicken", and she doesn't know! So everyone
The matter of hitting the fifty-big board is over.
Liu Xiang and others also attach great importance to the first civil service examination: although this civil service examination should be regarded as a "local civil service examination", considering that the Senate will soon move its capital to Guangzhou, many of these civil servants will probably also be admitted.
They were transferred to the central and provincial departments, so the issue of political "reliability" must first be considered when selecting.
However, after checking the personal information of these applicants, it was found that the reliability is not something to worry about. Among the 1,899 people who came to take the exam, only 27 were former Ming scholars, which was only slightly more than 1% of the total number of candidates. Scholars and above
There is not a single person who has been elected as a scholar.
Before the recruitment, a fierce debate broke out in the Lingao Senate in a serious manner, that is, whether the Ming Dynasty's candidates and Jinshi could participate in the civil service recruitment examination. Many people said that such people would never be allowed from the perspective of a pure team.
"Multiple into the revolutionary ranks".
You even got into the revolutionary ranks! Liu Xiang thought to himself, people are taking the initiative to draw a clear line with you!
However, it is good to draw a clear line. Although the sensational effect of "Ji Ren" and "Jinshi" is missing, and the publicity department will definitely be dissatisfied, there is no endless verbal disputes in the Senate.
Judging from the registration information, those who take the public examination are mainly social studies and "tong students" from private schools, as well as small traders, clerks, craftsmen, etc. who have studied for several years and are already engaged in various businesses. Overall, it is basically
Among the citizens, there are also rural households in the suburbs. There are very few people who are born in extreme poverty, and most of them belong to the middle and lower classes in the city - this also confirms the saying that studying requires capital.
Although they all have a certain level of education, considering that except for a very small number of candidates, most of them have no foundation in "Macao studies", although the questions in the test are not very "modern", they are very important to many who have their heads buried in the classics.
For scholars, it is still like a book from heaven. Liu Xiang estimates that those who can answer the questions correctly probably rely on imagination.
In order to select as many talents as possible, in judging papers, it is not simply about judging right or wrong and assigning points, but also classifying and screening each paper. Candidates with high scores in mathematics and logic questions are taken out separately - these people even if they are in other parts
It doesn't matter if the score is low. For many candidates, the score on the practical test basically determines whether they will enter the interview or even be admitted. Of course, if the candidate's application essay is written poorly, it basically means that this type of candidate is not very good.
Maybe he will enter an administrative position
Yuan Shu didn't know whether he would be good or bad in the exam, but he was in a calm mood now - he was already in his early fifties and his time was running out. If he didn't pass the exam, he was going to work as a bookkeeper in a tea house and live a stable life.
Seeing that the New Year announced by the Australians was approaching, Yuan Shuzhi was busy helping with the accounting, and Zeng Juan also went out to collect the accounts every day. This day was the end of the year, and the accounts had been cleared. Yuan Shuzhi had not much to do after breakfast.
Then I picked up "Dream of Red Mansions" in the accounting room and read it,
Suddenly I noticed a commotion on the street, and many students hurried towards Gongyuan.
"Quick, hurry up, the chief is about to release the results."
As soon as the sound came out, the crowd was abuzz. The candidates all blushed, either with anticipation or anxiety. There were many people in the tea house washing up and having breakfast. Those who had not finished eating could not wait to get up and join the crowd.
A large group of people ran outside.
Suddenly Zeng Juan ran in panting, and drank all the tea on Yuan Shuzhi's table. After taking a breath, Zeng Juan said loudly: "Old...Old...Yuan! The results are released!!!" Hearing "Release the results!!!"
Yuan Shuzhi immediately jumped up at the words "I'm sorry" and said hurriedly: "Brother Zeng, are you serious?! Don't play tricks on me!"
"Of course, seriously! Today is December 30th! I just went out today and heard someone say that the results of the Australian and Song Dynasty imperial examinations were released, so I immediately ran back to tell you, let's go and take a look. I can't bear it alone!"
"Okay! Okay! Okay! I will go with Brother Zeng!"
Yuan Shuzhi and Zeng Juan immediately left the door and headed towards Gongyuan. The Dashi Street where Gongyuan was located was already bustling with hustle and bustle, and the place where the results were released was surrounded by a sea of people. Not only the candidates and their families came, but also many people watching the excitement.
Come here, everyone wants to see what kind of "Australian scene" this Australian's first imperial examination results are! There are also many parents from well-off families with school-age daughters at home, waiting for the opportunity at the door to see if there are any.
Which "new Australian scholar" is so talented and good-looking that he can be made a son-in-law?
The place where the results are posted is on the screen wall outside the Gongyuan. This is where the Gongyuan used to post the list of admissions. In order to get rid of the old and welcome the new, Liu Xiang specially had people build a colorful booth overnight. Before the time came, the colorful booth where the admission list was posted was posted.
The front was already crowded with student candidates, all jockeying for a good seat. Zeng Juan arrived late, so he had to stay on the outside.
Fortunately, the results have not yet been announced, so the students' readings are not too out of character. However, some students clasp their hands together and mutter something, listening carefully to the words that seem to be asking for blessings from gods and Buddhas.
"Squeak——"
The Gongyuan opened the middle door at exactly six o'clock on time, and four naturalized citizens wearing Australian "cadre uniforms" came out. Two of them held white wide-format paper, while the other two were carrying a ladder and the other.
Paste brushes. The crowd waiting outside the door couldn't help but be secretly disappointed: The Australian ceremony is too simple! Not to mention setting off cannons and propaganda, there must be a ceremony at least. Just like this, four little officials took it out and posted it on the wall.
thing?
Even so, everyone immediately separated and asked four cadres to go to the wall, erect ladders and post the notices.
I saw a list with black characters on a white background slowly unfolding, but it was a white background with black characters - it was the first time for everyone to see this list. Although the Gongyuan Provincial Examination is not as rigorous as the Jinshi Examination, it is still a red list. There is no big white paper.
Just posted it? Is this considered a legacy of the Song Dynasty? Although everyone is puzzled, the fame, fortune and wealth are so touching. Not to mention the black and white words on the paper, even the red letters on the white background do not matter to the candidates.
As soon as the cadres left, the crowd cheered and rushed to the bottom of the list.
Only then did everyone see clearly the difference between this list and the Ming Dynasty. It was preceded by the zigzag examination number of the Great Eclipse, followed by the name of the candidate, the position applied for, and the ranking of the applicant for this position. An idle person who had studied the regulations explained,
This is the list of candidates who have passed the written examination. Next, they will have an interview, just like they will take the Chinese test and pass the palace examination.
Soon the crowd began to get excited, with voices of great joy and sadness rising one after another. Some people shouted overjoyed, "I got it, I got it." They grabbed the shoulders of the people around them and shook them violently, regardless of whether they knew them or not. Some people shouted with tears in their eyes.
: "No, this is not true" and other words, crying and crying...
Yuan Shuzhi was older and couldn't squeeze through the group of young people, so he had to let Zeng Juan squeeze in to take a look. After Zeng Juan squeezed into the crowd, he couldn't squeeze in either. He stood on tiptoes, stretched out his neck, and looked carefully.
I was looking for my name and candidate number in the list. I was only halfway through the list when I found Yuan Shuzhi’s name and immediately shouted:
"Lao Yuan...I have your..."
But I saw on the list: Administrative position in the Environmental Sanitation Bureau: Yuan Shuzhi, with 41 points in the practical test and 60 points in the essay, ranked first in the written test for this position.
Before he could report the score, Zeng Juan was pushed to the side. He was short and could hardly breathe when he was squeezed. He was so anxious that he could not speak. Yuan Shuzhi became more and more anxious outside and shouted:
"Brother Zeng! Tell me! Did you win or not?!"
Zeng Juan tried his best and said from the bottom of his throat: "What the hell! Lao Yuan, you won! 41 in the test and 60 in the application! First place in the Environmental Sanitation Bureau position!"
Boom! Everyone on the scene was shocked when they heard "first place"! How awesome this person must be! The first place in the Environmental Sanitation Bureau position! This is almost a sure way to be selected! Some of the people on the list had low scores, but fortunately they were not with this person.
One ancestor holds a position, and the other losers clenched their fists, determined to visit this master to ask for advice so that they can fight again next year!
"I won! I won! I won. Look, everyone, No. 1269 is mine!" Yuan Shuzhi clapped his hands and looked up to the sky, laughing.
His face was red with excitement, as if he was 18 years old again, and the gullies on his face that were squeezed together by laughter seemed to be full of energy. He didn't care about the crowd around him and started chanting loudly.
A dragon is teased by a shrimp on the beach, a tiger is bullied by a dog when it falls on the beach.
Tigers crouch in the mountains and listen to the howling wind, dragons lie on the shoals and wait for the tide.
When the sea reaches the end, the sky becomes the shore; when the mountain reaches its peak, I become the peak.
If the sun rises in the east, the roc spreads its wings and hates the sky.
Who doesn't have a tiger falling on a flat sun, waiting for me to rise again when the wind and mountains rise again?
…
Yuan Shuzhi recited this poem incoherently, with incoherent lines and sentences. He looked like he was the best in the world, and his brows were full of joy. Zeng Juan had the leisure to listen to what he said and read it from beginning to end.
I looked from the end to the beginning, but still couldn't see my exam number and name. I couldn't help but get anxious. I was afraid that I was too far away to see the difference. So I dug in desperately, all the way to the bottom of the list, and looked again from the beginning.
