Just when he was about to give up, Yu Tiance saw a name among more than 280 people.
Xinfeng County, Yu Tiance!
"The hard work pays off, and we finally passed!"
After becoming a scholar, from now on, he no longer needs to kneel down when meeting a county magistrate. He can be a parson, study in the county school, open a private school, and no longer need to perform corvee service!
The most important thing is that Shen Kang can no longer call him a waste.
The eighth brother-in-law is a scholar, and he is also a scholar!
Hahaha!
Yu Tiance laughed heartily.
There were fewer and fewer people on both sides. Some cheered, some sat on the ground crying, some were praised by their parents, some were chased and beaten by their fathers, and some old people were comforted by their sons...
After a night's rest, we checked out of the room early in the morning.
Yu Tiance took Shen Jing to Jiangyue Tower to say goodbye to Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan did not let Chen Qing stay and directly gave him to Yu Tiance as a book boy.
Yu Tiance thought about it and realized that Chen Qing's salary was one or two cents a month. When he was not at home, Chen Qing could protect his wife around the clock. Why not?
After chatting for a while and buying some cloth in Chang'an, the three of them arrived at the dock and boarded the passenger ship back to Xinfeng County.
Zeng Yu organized the imperial examination and it would take a few days before he could go back.
But being so sophisticated, Yu Tiance went to the county government with the gift and gave it to his wife, along with some words of thanks.
Then, he took the cloth to Yanyun Painting Gallery.
Finally, he prepared two pieces of silk cloth and took his wife back to Shen's house.
When Shen Kang heard the news, his expression was a little shocked.
Maybe it’s because you don’t believe that a loser can surpass a scholar, right?
What surprised Shen Kang even more was that the county magistrate's teacher actually gave him his name. A wealthy man like him would not even try to curry favor with the county magistrate!
The eighth brother-in-law, Wang Chuan, was a scholar who passed the exam four years ago. He passed the provincial examination last time and was a Gongsheng student. He opened a private school at home to teach children how to read.
Looking at his expression, I didn't know whether he was happy or sad.
After returning home, Yu Tiance put his head in his hands and looked at the flickering candlelight on the corner of the table.
The next provincial examination will have to wait until August this year, and it will be taken together with the scholars from Yongliang and Jiufu. I don’t know how difficult it is, and whether you can pass it or not is a matter of two minds.
Scholars do not need to perform corvee service, but they must perform military service. Men between the ages of 16 and 50 must go to the county camp for one month of contact training every year to help build the city and stand guard.
Except for those who have achieved academic status or have studied in county schools, they are not required to perform military service.
Then hurry up and enter the county school!
Huhu~
The wind is strong in spring, making the wooden windows rustle.
The kang was very hot, and holding Shen Jing in his arms didn't make him feel any colder.
But Chen Qing lived in the woodshed, and it was unreasonable to come all the way back with him without even having a nest.
It seems that it is time to change the house.
Since we are talking about houses, we have to mention the four major gentry in Xinfeng County.
Shen family, don’t make any plans yet.
If something happens to Shen Kang, it will be bad for my wife.
From the Dongcheng Jiang family, Edo is an honest person, and the plotting against him has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't make any plans.
The Wang family in Xicheng and the Jiang family in Nancheng are worthy of consideration.
In that case, the Jiang family is the first choice.
Early in the morning, Yu Tiance brought Chen Qing to Jiang Mansion.
Jiang Hongzheng was angry because of his son's matter, but the new county magistrate did not agree with him, and because he had offended the governor, he had no choice but to wait at home.
Jiang Hong's heart almost jumped out of his chest when he heard from the housekeeper that Yu Tiance was here.
"Did he come to Jiang Mansion to plead guilty? Bring me that rogue!"
"I know, sir!"
Not long after, Yu Tiance and Chen Qing followed the housekeeper, entered the Jiang Mansion, and came to the main hall.
Jiang Hong sat in the middle of the main hall, stared at Yu Tiance fiercely, and shouted angrily: "You damn scoundrel, don't think I dare not kill you! The new county magistrate has just arrived, and I can't do anything! You actually If you dare to harm my son, just say it and I will listen to your apology first and then figure out how to punish you!"
Apologize?
Yu Tiance couldn't help but laugh.
"Mr. Jiang, are you still dreaming? Who told you that I came to apologize?"
Um?
Jiang Hong looked at the housekeeper, and then asked doubtfully: "You're not here to apologize? Then why are you here in my house?"
"Master Jiang has a house on the road in front of the Shen family. Is it your family property?"
"Yes!" Jiang Hong snorted angrily.
Yu Tiance stepped forward, grabbed the tea cup from Jiang Hong's hand, and took a big sip.
Pooh!
"What kind of tea is this? It looks like pig urine."
Jiang Hong silently clenched his fists.
As a scholar, when he sees a distinguished person, he does not bow and bow;
As a junior, when meeting an elder, he does not say hello;
Meeting the host as a guest...
Surprisingly, so presumptuous!
He took his teacup away and said it tasted like pig urine!
"You're here to see a doctor, right?"
hehe…
Yu Tiance put down the tea cup and raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "Mr. Jiang, please don't be angry. I'm here to discuss business with you today."
"If you have any farts, hurry up!"
Jiang Hong slammed the table and stood up angrily.
The stickmen from Jiang Mansion also blocked the door at this moment.
"You bastard, this is not the street! If you come to my house to cause trouble, even if your legs are broken, at most you will have to pay some money! You won't be sued."
Of course Yu Tiance knew that if he broke into the house and acted wild, the beating would be in vain.
When Chen Qing saw something was wrong, he quickly stepped forward.
"Qingzi, don't be so arrogant. When we talk about business, we need to have a good attitude and calm down first."
Yu Tiance put his hands behind his back, held his head high and said, "Mr. Jiang, I have my eye on the house in front of the Shen family. Sell it to me for three hundred dollars."
WTF?
Jiang Hong was confused for a moment.
It is said that Yu Tian Ce Biao, this is a real Biao!
Although the land price in Xinfeng County is not as high as that in Chang'an, the house covers an area of two acres, which is only slightly smaller than the Shen family.
Inside, there are gardens, fish ponds, rockeries, pavilions, main halls, guest rooms, kitchens, studies, servant rooms, etc.
The Yu Dynasty was the same as the Ming Dynasty in the original time and space. Five feet was a step, a step was 240 acres, and a hundred acres was an hectare. One acre of land should be about 600 square meters in later generations.
Although Jiang Hong is not short of land, he also has many houses.
But no matter how you calculate it, you can't sell it for three hundred guan.
"What do you want? Even if you give me two thousand guan, whether you can sell it or not depends on my mood! Do you have anything serious to do? If not, while I'm in a good mood, master, get out of here! Don't let me scream People will beat you out!"
snort!
Once you come, things must be done.
It is foolish to fight an unprepared battle.
"Uncle Jiang, don't talk so much."
With that said, Yu Tiance moved forward and pulled off the jade pendant from his waist: "Look carefully, this is the jade pendant given to me by shopkeeper Lu of Jiang Yue Lou of Chang'an Prefecture. Mr. Lu, you don't know who it is, do you? His Student, you should have heard that he is our county magistrate."
Um?
Jiang Hong had some connections in Chang'an, and indeed he heard that Yu Tiance got along well with Lu Yuan through his painting skills.
He naturally knew Lu Yuan's identity very well.
That's a person who can't afford to offend!
"What do you want to say? Move out the big shots to scare me? Even if Lu Yuan himself comes, he can't forcefully buy my Jiang Hong's house for three hundred yuan!"
