Fan Jin no longer had the time to think about whether he was the only one who saw the green smoke just now, or whether everyone else in the clan saw it.
The energy enters the body unexpectedly, leaving people without any precautions or scruples.
A stream of energy was rapidly repairing his decayed body.
Fan Jin could clearly feel the changes in his body after the energy entered his body.
The whole body seemed to become lighter, every cell was activated, and there was no trace of the twilight of an old man in his fifties or sixties. The white hair on the temples gradually turned gray, and the wrinkles on his face relaxed, like ripples on the surface of a lake blown by the autumn wind. It swayed slightly and soon returned to smoothness.
In the dark, there seemed to be a voice telling him:
【Shouyuan+20】
【Wisdom Root +10】
[Physique +10]
...
After a long time, Fan Jin shivered.
Even though Xuan felt a little boring, there were still some things he wanted to do.
He missed the feeling of being nourished, warmed, and wrapped up just now, but the happy time was always too short.
"As my longevity increases, my appearance also becomes younger?" Fan Jin's expression changed and he whispered silently.
The relationship between the two has yet to be studied, but he did find that he was getting younger. His originally dry hands slowly became smooth and delicate, and there seemed to be a youthful power flowing under his skin.
After the ancestor worship ceremony was completed, the second uncle waved the clansmen to disperse and asked everyone to prepare for the flowing water feast for the next three days.
"Jin Zai, why do I think you have become younger?" The second uncle's eyes fell on Fan Jin and he subconsciously opened his mouth.
Obviously just now...
Could it be that my old eyesight is dim?
Fan Jin said calmly, "People feel refreshed when happy events happen!"
The second uncle thought for a while, "That's the only way."
Although Fan Jin was surprised about becoming younger, he was very calm because he found that the process of becoming younger was gradual.
In addition to the immediate effect at the beginning, it needs to take effect slowly in the future.
He is getting younger almost every moment now.
It makes sense to explain this change by saying that people feel refreshed during happy events.
As for saying that for a while, getting younger…
There is nothing unreasonable about being pampered and enjoying life after winning the imperial examination, and living younger and younger.
The mud-legged people digging in the fields can't imagine what the life of a squire is like. They can't even imagine the joy of raising a person!
Otherwise, there would not be a joke about the emperor using golden hoes to farm and eating a steamed bun every meal.
"Second uncle, I thought about it, the clan school has to be reopened." Fan Jin thought for a while and said.
Now that he is a member of the Juren clan, it cannot be said that all his clan members are illiterate, which is good to say and bad to say.
"It should be so!" the second uncle agreed.
In fact, there were private schools in Fanjia Village in the early years, and Fan Jin took advantage of the family when he started school.
But over the past few decades, the village has not provided many scholars, but has spent a lot of money, and the villagers' minds have gradually faded away.
A moment of passion will eventually be erased by time and dissipate invisible.
In the world, people like Fan Jin who put all their efforts into competing with the sky and insisting on defeating the sky are only a few among the few.
Simply alien.
"Jinzi, don't forget that my second uncle doesn't know a few words, but he also understands that everything is inferior, and the only way to be good is to study." The second uncle clicked his tongue and said, "Children from poor families have only one way out: studying."
Isn’t the role model right in front of us?
With the example of Guangzong Yaozu Fan Jin here, the thoughts of the second uncle, a kind and honest elder, took root again, hoping that more scholars would emerge in Fanjia Village and the Fan family would be strengthened.
Fan Jin thought for a while and took out two banknotes from his arms, "This is a little thought from the younger generation. I hope to buy some school land for the clan so that the children in the village can study and read.
Regardless of whether you have to take the imperial examination or be literate, you will be able to find a job in the future. "
The second uncle took the banknote and said in surprise: "Two hundred taels!"
An acre of the best paddy fields costs only about ten taels, and the price of average-quality fields is only between five and six taels.
Fan Jin started with two hundred taels, which was definitely a big deal!
"Well, with your support, it will be much easier for the children to go to school." The second uncle said with emotion.
"In addition, the school land can be directly under my name, which will also exempt me from the land tax."
Fan Jin arranged it very well. The friendship between the same clans is a relatively reliable feeling in ancient society. If there is prosperity and loss, there will be loss. Otherwise, there would be no officials committing crimes and the whole family of the nine clans would be confiscated and exterminated.
Not to mention that now the concept of clan is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Even in later generations, after Director Qi became successful, which father or fellow villager did not accept his kindness or think of his good deeds?
The benefit was that the villagers almost unconditionally helped Director Qi, the half-son of Shengtian, with any dirty work he had to do.
Who doesn't want to have a relative like Director Qi?
Fan Jin has no intention of recruiting the Fan clan members. Those who cannot support the wall with mud are not within the scope of his consideration.
He didn't want to be like Shengtian Banzi, who wanted to turn even the wild dogs in his hometown into police dogs and eat a portion of royal food.
Fan Jin's purpose is to create a good reputation for caring about his relatives.
In many cases, this reputation is very important, whether it is for imperial examinations or official positions.
Why did Fan Jin, who came from a poor family, directly become the royal censor of a noble family after becoming a Jinshi?
Among them, the reputation of observing filial piety for one's mother for three years and following ancient rituals definitely played a vital role.
The two chatted for a while, and then the second uncle asked with concern, "Jinzi, do you want to continue the imperial examination?"
Fan Jin's lips curled up, "This is natural."
Power lasts forever!
The chance of a successful candidate being awarded an official position is very slim. Squire Zhang was one of the lucky ones to become a county magistrate.
Moreover, holding an official position as a juren also has fatal flaws. In the conventional concept, the county magistrate is basically the ceiling, and the way to breakthrough has long been firmly locked.
Military attachés may still have a chance in this regard, but if they are civil servants, they will definitely feel squeezed out from all directions.
The second uncle didn't know much about the twists and turns here, but he fully supported Fan Jin's idea.
Soldiers are valuable and quick.
Within a few days, the clan had made arrangements for Xuedian.
The school that had been abandoned for more than ten years in the village was reopened. Children of school age entered the school one after another to learn. For this reason, an old boy who had failed many times was specially invited to teach the children.
The second uncle even sent someone to invite Fan Jin to learn inscriptions for the village.
Fan Jin was a little nervous and subconsciously thought of the question "Shengtian Banzi", but after thinking about it, he felt that his tone was too loud. ,
After pondering for a while, he wrote, "Be a farmer in the morning, and ascend to the emperor's hall in the evening. The general has no seed, a man should strengthen himself!"
