Later, in order to prove the lie of Zashu, he actually read some books, such as the method of making maltose, which was recorded in "Qi Min Yao Shu".
In addition, things like Maikan and Qingtuan exist in this world. He either heard about them and tried to figure them out on his own, or he couldn't remember which book he read them in.
No one can go wrong with either answer.
As for snacks such as Shaqima and Taosu, he attributed it to his "talent". Someone had raised them before and he had no worries about eating and drinking, so he was too lazy to use his brain.
Now that there is no one to support him and he has reached a dead end, he can only bite the bullet and go in person. This way, he opens the door to a new world.
In short, one can tell from Zhao Cun's eyes and expression that there is nothing wrong with his answers.
After all, he had lived in the apocalypse and was still a person with superpowers. He could feel whether others had any ill intentions toward him.
Zhao Cun recorded Li Qiao's answer, confirmed it again, and then said to County Magistrate Jiang: "Master Jiang, wait until tomorrow to read out the imperial edict. It's getting late today."
"This is natural." Jiang Zhixian agreed with a smile.
He has already found out what the Holy Spirit's reward is.
He was extremely satisfied with the reward. At this time, he looked at Li Qiao as if he were his own son, and he was extremely kind.
After sending Zhao Cun and the others away, he first asked Li Qiao about Tao Zhu, and he also found out about Li Qiao's rewards.
Then he personally took Li Qiao to register for the county examination.
Registration for the county examination is quite troublesome. Not only do you need to fill out a form, but you also need to have someone present.
The first thing to fill out is a resume. Those who sign up must clearly write down their name, place of origin, and physical characteristics to prevent others from taking the exam for them.
It is also necessary to write down the resumes of the two generations of grandparents and parents to prove that all three generations of grandparents and grandchildren are innocent.
This form is equivalent to an ID card and a political review. The village head needs to be present when filling it out, and the village head acts as the guarantor.
Zhuang Fengshou came to the county town yesterday to find Zhuang Wen, so he did not come with Li Qiao and Tao Zhu today. Originally, Li Qiao and Tao Zhu planned to go directly to Zhuang Wen's house, because today Li Qiao not only needs Zhuang Fengshou, the village chief, but also Zhuang Wen, a junior student. and two other scholars.
When registering, you must not only fill out a resume, but also a mutual insurance policy.
Mutual bonding means mutual proof. This mutual bonding insurance policy refers to three scholars applying for the county examination to prove to each other that the other party has not cheated on the exam, and if one of the three cheats, then all three will be punished.
In the previous dynasty, five people filled out this mutual insurance policy. However, when Dasheng was first established, there were few people and even fewer scholars, so the number of five people became three.
Li Qiao had been studying at home and didn't know other scholars.
But Zhuang Wen knew him.
Zhuang Wen has been studying in a private school and knows many scholars. Moreover, he is now a junior student. When a scholar takes the county examination, he must find a junior student as a guarantee.
There were many people looking for him, so he selected two of them to fill out the mutual insurance policy with Li Qiao.
This involves the third table: confirmation.
That is to ask a local student and the village chief of his or her own village to guarantee that the applicant will not impersonate his or her nationality, conceal funerals, or take the exam for others.
So today, Zhuang Wen's family not only has Zhuang Fengshou, but also two scholars who are going to take the exam this time. But they waited and waited. After waiting for a long time, Li Qiao and Tao Zhu didn't come. Zhuang Fengshou was afraid of something unexpected, so he was thinking about it. Need to find someone.
As a result, a government official went to Zhuang Wen's house.
So, Zhuang Fengshou, Zhuang Wen, and two scholars came to the county government office with puzzled faces.
By the time the registration process was completed, it was already noon.
In Jiangzhi County, Lili buckwheat pottery bamboo, Zhuangfeng harvest and Zhuangwen had lunch.
Tomorrow Li Qiao's reward will be sent to Sanliu Village. As the village chief, Zhuang Fengshou will have to organize the villagers after returning to welcome the imperial edict.
"Imperial decree?!"
Zhuang Fengting was shocked when he heard these two words and almost dropped the chopsticks in his hand.
Zhuang Wen too, trembled all over and almost dropped the chopsticks in his hand.
The father and son were waiting anxiously at home, but after hearing what the yamen servant said, they came to the county yamen in a daze, unaware of Zhao Cun and the others.
At this moment, they suddenly heard the word imperial edict, which taught them how not to be shocked.
"Don't panic, we will practice some drills later." Jiang Zhixian smiled and reassured.
There is a set of standard procedures for receiving imperial edicts, but it is not cumbersome. Moreover, for people in the countryside, let alone imperial edicts, they have not even been issued in the county. In this case, even if a villager fails to act in place, then Zhao Cun I won't care about it either.
So, after lunch it was time to learn relevant etiquette.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Magistrate Jiang let them go and asked them to return to the village to prepare.
After leaving the county government office in a daze, Li Qiao, Taozhu, and Zhuang Wenzhuang Fengshou looked at me and I looked at you. For a moment, they didn’t know how to speak.
Not a dream, right?
This is really not a dream, is it?
The sweet potato workshop before was a great thing that I had never dreamed of. Now, is there anything more dreamy than the sweet potato workshop?
Finally, Li Qiao laughed: "This is a happy event, let's go back to the village."
As soon as he opened his mouth, Zhuang Fengshou had a real sense of the decree coming from heaven.
It's a happy event.
This is indeed a great event!
He laughed a few times before nodding: "Let's go back to the village."
Although it was stated that only Li Qiao's family would need to receive the order tomorrow, the imperial envoy came from the capital with the holy order, that is, the imperial envoy.
When the imperial envoy comes to Sanliu Village, you must greet him well and leave a good impression on him.
"When you kill pigs and sheep, you must entertain the imperial envoy well. Whoever is the best cook in the village will be chosen. You must make sure the imperial envoy returns with satisfaction."
"The roads have to be swept clean. No pebbles or leaves are allowed. The wild vegetables and weeds that have just sprouted on both sides of the road have also been harvested."
"House, every household will clean their house thoroughly today. The windows and doors will be wiped clean."
Soon, thinking of the adobe brick road that had not yet started construction, he couldn't help but stamp his feet: "If I had known there was an imperial edict, I would have definitely started construction earlier!"
What should the imperial envoy do if the road is bumpy and bumpy?
"Quick, quick, let's go back to the village and let the villagers use shovels to simply repair the road and fill in the potholes with loess."
Zhuang Feng was so anxious that he wished he could put on his wings and fly back to the village.
Seeing this, Li Qiao hurriedly said: "Village Chief, there is no need for this. The Imperial Envoy has already quietly gone to the village to inquire about it. They know what our village is like."
"ah??????"
Zhuang Fengshou and Zhuang Wen were both stunned.
The imperial envoy has already been to Sanliu Village?
Why don't they know?
Li Qiao explained: "They are pretending to be ordinary traders, so of course we don't know."
Nowadays, many outsiders come to Sanliu Village every day. Although everyone knows that Li Qiao's vermicelli is only sold to Wangyue Tower, there are still some people who are unwilling to give up and want to bypass Wangyue Tower to get the goods from Li Qiao.
Moreover, Li Qiao not only has vermicelli, Li Qiao also has snacks.
The snacks made by Li Qiao were equally delicious, no worse than vermicelli. Those vendors wanted to buy Li Qiao's snacks.
Therefore, Sanliu Village is full of people coming and going every day, and people are cheering and horses are barking. In this case, how can the villagers know that three of the vendors are pretending to be the imperial envoy.
After Zhuang Feng listened to Li Qiao's words, he was stunned for a while, and then quickly cheered up.
"It is precisely because the Imperial Envoy has been there once, so we must be more prepared. We must let the Imperial Envoy see that we attach great importance to the imperial edict!"
Li Qiao: "..."
Or do you have to do some cleaning all night?
This is too frustrating.
As a modern person, Li Qiao could treat the imperial edict with a normal heart, but the people in Sanliu Village could not.
It was already dark when they returned to Sanliu Village, but after Zhuang Fengshou summoned the villagers to announce the matter, the villagers let out a huge cheer. The imperial edict turned out to be an imperial edict!
Oh my god, this is the real arrival of God!
Without Zhuang Fengshou's instructions, they wanted to rush home and clean up. Now, as soon as Zhuang Fengshou gave instructions, they even rushed home.
Time was tight and the task was heavy. Not only did they have to clean up, they also had to practice, but they couldn't make a mistake in front of the imperial envoy.
Li Qiao's house was naturally the focus of the whole village's attention. Zhuang Fengshou arranged for dozens of people to come to his house to clean it.
Li Qiao didn't think it was necessary. His yard was cleaned every day.
Moreover, the Chinese New Year has just passed, and a lot of cleaning was done before that, so the whole yard is very clean, so there is no need to clean it specially.
But Li Qiao's words don't count at this time.
Tao Zhu, Li Shu, Li Liang, Li Gu and others all picked up the tools and had to clean it again.
The enthusiasm of the villagers was no less than that of Tao Zhu and others. The villagers couldn't just go into the room, so they wiped the yard with rags. Not only did they wipe the doors and windows clean, but if Li Qiao hadn't stopped them, they would have even wanted the tiles on the roof. Give it a wipe.
After Tao Zhu cleaned the backyard, he rummaged through the boxes and cabinets to find clothes for Li Qiao. While rummaging through them, he was annoyed: "I should have bought some good materials to make clothes for you."
It’s not like I can’t afford it.
But she had never thought about this before, so Li Qiao's clothes were all made of cotton.
What should I do?
Li Qiao stood in front of the table with his arms folded, watching Tao Zhu rummaging through the wardrobe and boxes as if he was not tired, so he stepped forward and hugged him.
Then with Tao Zhu's exclamation, he sat down on the chair.
"I'm a farmer's boy, so I'd rather wear cotton. Besides, with my looks, any clothes are a foil. Since they're all a foil, it doesn't matter which one I wear."
Tao Zhu: "..."
Although he wanted to nod, now was not the time to be stinky!
"Let's take a rest. We got up early this morning. It's already midnight. Aren't you tired?"
Li Qiao leaned on the back of the chair, holding Tao Zhu's waist with one hand, and gently tapped the tip of his nose with the other, his tone revealing helplessness.
"Why are you tired? I have to receive an imperial edict tomorrow."
Tao Zhushui's eyes widened.
