The conversation that night made Cui Yingying psychologically accept the fact that the Cui family was infighting, but she still couldn't adjust her mood, and she also understood something vaguely. She handed over all the affairs of the Shengtang Chamber of Commerce Tong Nian, on the other hand, was devoted to being a virtuous housemate, going to the clinic every day to accompany Empress Changsun, because Sun Simiao began to treat Empress Changsun after consulting a lot of information.
Li Yin didn't ask Cui Yingying anything after hearing the news from Tong Nian. Cui Yingying is a smart woman, she knows the measure of everything, which is something Li Yin appreciates.
After the meeting that night, Li Yin devoted his energy to the reform of government affairs in Bashu, and began to select talents through the evaluation and interview in the School of Government Affairs.
"Your Highness, can we start?"
Like the modern civil servant selection system, Li Yin also used two steps to select officials: a written test and an interview. After learning that Yizhou was about to reform government affairs, each of these students was eager to show off in front of Li Yin. During the one-month exam preparation period, these students studied hard day and night, and some of them didn't even eat for a day, all of them were used to study. According to Shangguanyi, many of them passed out because of being too exhausted.
"They can finally use their own abilities to change their own future!" Wang Yinlong said with emotion, his eyes were slightly moist, how many years have passed, these humble scholars are suffering in their hearts, they work hard, they work hard, and their achievements are better than those of the gentry The children are much taller, but in the end, the reviewing officials threw them into the trash can without even reading their test papers. What's more, the rankings they should have been all were replaced by those noble children. Mirror flowers and water moon.
Li Yin patted Wang Yinlong on the shoulder, and said: "I'll wait until the exam is over, and you will have a lot of responsibilities as the invigilator. I don't want some of these students to cheat to get grades. Behavior is equally bad."
Wang Yinlong listened to Li Yin's words. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Your Highness gave them such an opportunity. It was because of the green smoke rising from their ancestral graves. If they dare to cheat, I, Wang Yinlong, will be the first to refuse. I have to knock out their front teeth and hang them at the gate of Yizhou City." You can't bask in the sun."
"Hahaha..." The way Wang Yinlong gritted his teeth made Li Yin and Shangguanyi laugh. They knew that this exam, regardless of high or low, had always been Wang Yinlong's dream, and he would give everything for this dream.
When several people were laughing, Dou Xiande walked in, and he shook his head. "Your Highness should go to the entrance of the academy to have a look, it's really lively."
"What's going on?" Li Yin asked.
After a month of publicity, the news of the college’s final exam reached every corner of Bashu through Shengtang Business Daily. The families of those students rushed to the gate of the School of Political Affairs after hearing the news to support their children and brothers.
Li Yan walked outside the door with great interest, stood on the third floor and looked towards the entrance of the college. At this time, a dark group of people gathered at the door of the School of Political Affairs, including men, women and children. Dressed in shabby clothes, rich and colorful, students scattered in the crowd or around their parents. Or around brothers and sisters, some are excited, some are worried, but the unity is full of hope.
"Da Lang, don't be nervous during the exam, you are still young, you won't pass the exam this year. You can take the exam again next year, didn't you say it? The exam is held every year!"
Guan Sixing nodded. He looked at his father in rags and his eyes were red. In order to encourage him, his father walked a hundred miles to Yizhou City on foot. All the way he came here by eating **** and drinking cold water. Guan Sixing's mother died young, and his father brought him up. For him, his father worked day and night to cultivate the family's land. He didn't want him to do any farm work, but let him concentrate on studying, "Father, this is the meal ticket for the college." , you can have a good meal in the college cafeteria at noon."
"You should keep this. I'll use it. What do you eat?" Guan Sixing's father was not yet forty years old, but his face looked like he was fifty years old, and he was a little older than his peers. color.
Guan Sixing stuffed the meal ticket into his father's hand and said: "It's okay, the college issued three times the meal ticket during the exam, just to allow students' families to eat in the cafeteria."
"There is such a good thing, this college is really good!" Guan Sixing's father showed a simple and honest smile.
"Who says it's not! The basic necessities of life for the students are all free. Where can I find such a good thing?" The speaker was also dressed as a farmer, and standing in front of him was a student wearing the same school uniform as Guan Sixing.
Guan Sixing’s father saw that everyone was a farmer and had no birthright and chatted with that man. Guan Sixing smiled and patted the student’s shoulder, “Yuanshan, what subject did you take?”
The student named Yuanshan by Guan Sixing is Liu Yuanshan, who entered the same college as Guan Sixing, and both of them are familiar with each other. He said: "I applied for business and commerce, unlike Da Lang who took the comprehensive exam."
"Comprehensive?" Liu Yuanshan's words attracted the attention of many students. In this exam of the School of Political Affairs, there are many subjects classified, including business administration, financial management, taxation management, water conservancy engineering and other subjects, and above these subjects But there is a big comprehensive exam, these exams will cover the knowledge of all subjects, it is impossible for non-genius people to pass, many students forget to stop after analyzing the big comprehensive exam, but there are still many who choose to sign up , because high risk indicates high return, those who pass this exam will be direct candidates for governors and long history of each state, unlike others who may have to go through many years of training before being transferred to the core government affairs system.
Guan Sixing said: "Business and commerce may not be a good way out. Now His Highness attaches great importance to the development of agriculture and mulberry, and at the same time encourages commerce. This business management is very rich."
This is what Liu Yuanshan thought. He is not as capable as Guan Sixing, so he can only apply for this professional position. "Thank you Dalang for your kind words."
Just as Guan Sixing opened his mouth to say something, there was a sudden sound of regular gongs and drums inside the college, which was a reminder for candidates to enter the examination room.
"Father, I'm going in." Hearing the voice, the students bid farewell to their relatives, and Guan Sixing did the same. After saying that, he entered the academy with Liu Yuanshan and walked towards the examination room.
With the sound of gongs and drums, Li Yin and others on the third floor also started to take action, and the invigilators came out of the office one after another, holding the test papers of this exam in their hands.
After tidying up his clothes, Wang Yinlong solemnly walked towards the examination room. Shangguanyi, Dou Xiande, and Li Yin also followed behind him. Just to join in the fun, before, it was his turn to invigilate others, and this time it was his turn to invigilate others. This feeling is also very refreshing.
When a few people came to the examination room, the invigilator was searching the students who entered the examination room. Anything with writing on it was not allowed to enter the examination room. Once found, they would be disqualified from the examination and they would not be allowed to take the government examination for three years. Under such strict regulations Under the penalty regulations, no candidate would dare to take this risk.
As for the setting of the examination room, Li Yin fully learned the setting of the imperial examination room in the Ming Dynasty. Each candidate is a separate room. In this room, there is only one small window. The size of each room is 2 meters high by 1.5 meters A cuboid whose width is multiplied by two meters, and each room is separated by one meter, it is difficult to cheat even with the best skills.
All the candidates entered and sat down in their respective rooms. The guards stepped forward to lock these rooms, and the examiner stuffed the test papers to the candidates through the window. With another burst of gongs and drums, the exam officially began.
Li Yin took Shangguanyi and Dou Xiande around the examination room from south to north. These candidates concentrated on answering the test papers after they got the test papers. Almost no one cared when Li Yin walked by. There are restrictions.
Different from the imperial examinations in the Tang Dynasty, this exam does not test the Four Books and Five Classics. It is basically some practical knowledge, and only the comprehensive category involves government affairs management knowledge.
"Your Highness, this is the examination area of ??the comprehensive building?" Shangguanyi said after walking around the examination room for a while, pointing to the sign with the comprehensive examination.
Li Yin glanced at the sign and said: "Go, go in and have a look." Candidates pay so much attention to comprehensive exams, why doesn't Li Yin pay attention to comprehensive exams? He deliberately made such a comprehensive exam because he believes in geniuses. There are, and these talents cannot be wasted.
Walking slowly along the examination room, Li Yin tried his best not to make any noise that would affect the examinee's concentration on answering. He still has this quality, and he can't influence others just because he is not taking the exam.
Looking at the candidates one by one, Li Yin stopped in front of a candidate. He was a little surprised. The candidates in front of him were all scratching their heads and looking like they were in pain. This candidate was calm and composed, and he was basically blank with those Presumably, the examinee had already written half of the paper, and could hardly stop writing.
Li Yan carefully looked at the question the examinee was answering. It was a short-answer question, and the content of the question was very sharp—to express his views on His Royal Highness Shu's emphasis on business and agriculture.
This question was added at the request of Li Yin. It is not difficult for students who have learned modern management methods to analyze the pros and cons. Finding people who really dare to criticize Li Yin is the purpose of Li Yin's question. Li Yin thinks it is not Saint, it is impossible for all decisions to be correct. In other words, some of Li Yin's modern management methods are not in line with the Tang Dynasty, thus forming a contradiction and confrontation. Then at this time, someone who dares to speak out needs to object to Li Yin. As for Nayan, Li Yin thinks it can be done, what is lacking is some people who dare to criticize current affairs, and Li Yin is also planning to open up his voice and encourage scholars to judge current affairs and express different views.
