This is the advantage of holding multiple positions. You can fish openly and openly... Anyway, if there is something going on in the academy, Han Du can definitely go to the Municipal Shipping Department, because there are more important things there that need to be handled by himself. If something happens to the Shipping Department, Han Du can also use the Academy as a shield.
Anyway, I have decided on this fish today, and no one can even think about arranging things for me, I said so.
Fang Xiaoru was stunned for a moment and looked at Han Du helplessly. No matter how he looked at it, Han Du's face looked a bit shameless. Although he didn't know whether what Han Du said was true or not, he guessed from his heart that Han Du just wanted to be lazy and had no other reason.
Han Du didn't care whether Fang Xiaoru believed it or not, he believed it anyway. Without giving Fang Xiaoru a chance, he turned around and left as if running away. Even after leaving the academy, Han Du did not go to the Shibo Department to show off, but went directly back home.
As soon as Han Du walked into his yard and lay down comfortably, Han Jingyun stood in front of Han Du with a pretty face.
"Brother, are you saying that the Shibo Department is very busy and has no time to comment on students' articles?"
Han Du looked like a tail and followed Han Jingyun wherever he went. He sighed in his heart: Why are you exposed and can't get rid of you?
But Han Jingyun's trick is useful for people who still have a bottom line, but for Han Du, well~ he himself doesn't know where his bottom line is.
"Of course there are a lot of affairs in the Shipping Department, and they all need to be decided by Brother Wei himself. If you don't believe it, you can go with Brother Wei tomorrow to see if this is the case." Han Du said without blushing or heartbeat.
Anyway, the Shipping Department has the final say. If something happens, it will happen, and everything will be fine. As long as he goes to give orders tomorrow, he will have to nod his head to make decisions on all matters big and small in the Shibo Department, and the affairs will instantly make people despair.
Of course, if Han Jingyun no longer pursues the case, Han Du can just wave all these things to the officials below.
Han Jingyun stamped his feet angrily, knowing that there was nothing he could do with the delicious food, so he turned around and left.
An Qing watched from the side and saw Han Jingyun leave angrily. Then he looked at Han Du with a smile and said, "What did you do? Make sister Jingyun so angry?"
"You want me to do something. I'm a professional at fishing. How can it be so easy for me to do something?" Han Du said calmly.
"What is fishing?" An Qing asked with a curious face, although he was already used to unfamiliar words popping out of Han Du's mouth from time to time.
Han Du conveniently touched An Qing's buttocks and said with a mean smile: "This is fishing."
The two maids waiting outside the pavilion immediately chuckled and turned their faces to the other side.
In public, Anqing had never been so stimulated before, and his face instantly glowed with joy. The veins popped out when he squeezed the tea cup, and he made a sudden move to throw it towards Han Du.
Han Du quickly reached out to cover his face with his sleeves, trying to block it.
Fortunately, An Qing resisted and did not attack Han Du at the last moment. He put down the tea cup angrily and cursed: "You are so shameless, get out!"
After that, he turned around and hugged his son and walked away angrily.
I don't know if Han Du's slap had an effect, but Han Du looked at An Qing's leaving figure and felt that his hips were twisting much more than before.
Lowering his head and smiling foolishly, Han Du's mind was filled with thoughts about how he would spend the night with Anqing. As for students and articles, they were all forgotten.
After the New Year, spring is here and the temperature begins to rise. However, in order to protect themselves from the wind and cold, people still wear winter clothes. Since the supply of food from Luzon and Nanyang, Ming's demand for food has eased a lot.
In addition, both the Treasure Bank Lifting Department and the Arms Bureau now need a large amount of cotton. Lao Zhu issued orders again and again to let the people plant a large amount of cotton. In order to encourage people's enthusiasm for planting cotton and to reduce people's concerns, the Ming Dynasty Royal Grain Industry took action to purchase cotton at a high price.
When the people made some calculations and found that growing cotton was more cost-effective than growing food, the Ming Dynasty finally saw acres and acres of land being planted with cotton, instead of just a small amount in the corners of the fields as before. of planting.
Every year, the Royal Grain Industry purchases a large amount of cotton and divides the cotton into several grades. The best ones are naturally sent to the Treasure Banknote Collection Department to be made into treasure banknotes, while the inferior ones are sent to the Ordnance Bureau to be made into fire noodles.
Hesitation The Ming Dynasty has had several wars in recent years, which has led to a sharp increase in bullet consumption, so that the cotton in the Arms Bureau has been in short supply, just like a monster devouring cotton.
The cotton that is even worse is sent to the textile workshop under the Royal Grain Industry to be woven into cotton cloth. The worst ones are used to make quilts and stuffed inside clothes to make cotton-padded clothes.
Cotton seeds continue to be planted, preparing to expand the scale of cotton planting year after year.
With quilts, cotton-padded clothes and a heated kang, this year's winter in Yingtian Mansion finally prevented anyone from freezing to death. Although to this day, there are still people in the Ming Dynasty who do not have enough to eat and clothing to wear, but at least in Yingtian Mansion, this phenomenon has almost disappeared.
For this reason, Ru Taisu went out of his way to impress Lao Zhu like a flower. In the past, Lao Zhu couldn't stand Ru Taisu's colorful horse articles, but now he feels that such articles are not without any use. At least he is an expert in bragging.
On February 2, the dragon raises its head.
It is also the day when the Gongyuan is opened and the triennial examination is held.
Han Du didn't care about the college students taking the examination. In his opinion, they had already done what they should do anyway, and whether they could pass the examination all depended on whether they studied seriously and how deeply they studied. Anyway, it is impossible for me to help these students in the examination. Even if I guard at the gate of Gongyuan every day, I can't change the result. In this case, why bother myself?
If you have this time, you might as well tease your son more. The child has grown for a few more months. From being able to roll over before, he can now sit and crawl. In the past, when my son was placed on his stomach, he could only follow the ups and downs of his own breathing. Now put your son on your belly. If he is awake, he will not agree and will clumsily try to crawl away from his belly.
The fun of Han Du was that every time his son crawled away, he would put him back on his belly again. Then the son continued to crawl away, and then was put back again, enjoying himself.
Of course, the child is not stupid. After being carried back by Han Du several times, he found that he could not escape his father's clutches, so he immediately used his ability to cry for help.
An Qing, who came after hearing the sound, always picked up his son and coaxed him with a face full of complaints. He couldn't help but talk to Han Du, and sometimes even hit Han Du lightly.
Just when Han Du was immersed in the leisurely life of his wife and children on the hot bed, he didn't know that a shocking storm was about to fall on him.
On the day when the results were released, the imperial list was filled with students from all over the world, and students from the academy were naturally no exception.
"Congratulations to Min County, Fujian Province, Chen Ke, Mr. Chen, and the 300 Dingmao students from the high school..."
"Congratulations to Jiangxi Taihe County, Yang Junqing, Mr. Yang, and the 299 Ding Maoke from the high school..."
Two people in succession were from the Imperial College, and the Imperial College suddenly burst into cheerful laughter. While smiling, he continued to demonstrate towards the academy students.
Since the establishment of the academy, it has been monitored by the emperor and regarded as a thorn in the side. Moreover, the Imperial College believed that the academy just picked up some students they didn't want, and they should be born shorter than them.
But this was not the case in the academy. Not only did the people who saw the Imperial Academy show no respect at all, but they also ridiculed them everywhere.
Under Han Du's magical changes, the students in the academy changed from modest gentlemen to aggressive ones. No matter who you are, unless you can convince them academically, it would be a dream if you want the students in the academy to bow their heads voluntarily.
The students in the academy do not just focus on reading the books of sages. They not only do various experiments, but also actively participate in the construction of the academy. Their vision alone is not comparable to that of the Imperial College.
Although he is obviously not as talented as himself, he still dares to show off in front of the academy students and pretend to be a big tailed wolf. Haha, the students in the academy will not spoil them. Every time they refute the people in the Imperial College, the resentment between the two sides is getting deeper and deeper.
The Imperial College Examination has always been monitored by the Imperial College as its own advantage. Now that the Academy has finally entered the Imperial College Examination, the Imperial College will naturally take a good look at the Academy's jokes and ridicule the Academy.
But as the roll call came closer and closer to the exam, the people in the Imperial College couldn't laugh anymore. Because they discovered that people from the academy also began to appear. Moreover, as the ranking gets higher and higher, more and more people from the academy appear. In the end, even those who appeared one after another were people from the academy.
Now, it was the academy's turn to rejoice, but on the contrary, the Imperial College was as quiet as death.
As of the final statistics, it was found that more than 240 people from the academy took part in the examination, and 197 people passed the exam, and they even took the top three places. Such results not only delighted the academy students, but also surprised Xue Xiang and Fang Xiaoru. Needless to say, everyone celebrated grandly in the academy that day.
Because Fang Xiaoru was still angry about Han Du's lazy behavior, he deliberately did not notify Han Du.
Han Du knew nothing about this, and because he was hanging out with his son these days, he even forgot the day when the general examination was held and the results were released.
With the announcement of the imperial list, an undercurrent slowly surged among the scholars in the capital.
"Liu Sanwu is unfair. All those recorded by Ding Maoke are from the south..."
"That's right, Liu Sanwu is originally from Chaling, Hunan. Of course he favors southerners..."
"Fraud, fraud..."
