Chapter 426: Extortion

Weep!

Cry!

Despair!

This is the appearance of the candidates today.

They hate!

They hated why Guo Dan announced the answer so early, so that they were so talented that they could never forget the test papers they had done before.

It's such a painful feeling!

In fact, failure is not something they have not experienced, otherwise, many of them should have become jinshi, not show talent or lift people, but in the face of the imperial examination, they are cautious and cautious, cautious and careful, and never dare to speak wildly, unlike this exam, before the exam is all kinds of blowing, and even requires Guo Dan to increase the difficulty.

It's really not that Guo Dan is slapping them in the face, Guo Dan didn't say anything, but they themselves are slapping themselves in the face.

What to do?

It was as if they felt that the end of the world was coming.

Many people have already instructed their entourage to prepare their luggage, but this Kaifeng Mansion can't stay.

But as you can imagine, as soon as this score is announced, twenty points, thirty points, thinking of this scene, I really have the heart to commit suicide, and the face of my ancestors is lost.

"Brother Xian, what do you think?"

After leaving the crowd, Su Xu saw that Tan Xiu had been silent, so he asked.

Tan Xiu raised his eyes and glanced at Su Xu, shook his head and said: "In fact, they didn't do well in the exam, and they can't be blamed all, every question on the test paper seems to be very simple, but in fact, there are traps hidden everywhere, which requires candidates to not only memorize the "Da Ming Law", but also to integrate and use it flexibly, and most people do not love the law, and have no intention of studying, he spends more his mind on the four books and five classics, and it is natural that they cannot pass the exam." ”

At first, he also thought that the candidates were too careless, but after reading the test paper, he felt that this was not the case, and the person who could get 90 points on this test paper must have studied hard before, and also had a certain talent, quick thinking, and could flexibly apply these laws, and those nerds could not pass the test.

......

"Guo Dan, Guo Dan, I failed the test, I failed the test."

When the noble man entered the palace, he shouted loudly with excitement.

Guo Dan and Aunt Xu, who were talking in the backyard, couldn't help but glance at each other.

After a while, Gao Shang came to the mansion and said, "Guo Dan, do you know that they all failed the test." ”

Guo Dan stood up and said with a depressed face: "Those idiots won't cry in front of the answer, right?" ”

Gao Shang was stunned and said, "How do you know?" ”

Guo Dan couldn't help but laugh and said: "Otherwise, this is just the end of the exam, how will my father-in-law know that the exam has failed." ”

"You're right, there are a lot of people crying." Noble gloated.

"These idiots, it's really hopeless, don't cry in a hurry, am I so cruel? We businessmen are the best to speak. Guo Dan was so anxious that he stomped his feet.

Gao Shang was surprised: "Listening to what you mean, it seems that you are still planning to help them." ”

Guo Dan said: "This must be helped!" ”

Gao Shang said incredulously: "They said that about you before, but now they have failed the exam, and you have fallen into the well, but it is a great kindness, and you still plan to help them?" You've taken the wrong medicine. ”

"They don't say anything about me, and I won't lose a piece of meat, but if they hit them too hard, I'm afraid that their so-called self-esteem will make them ashamed to stay here. Guo Dan said depressedly.

Aunt Xu looked sideways at Guo Dan and said, "Didn't you say that you are very careful?" ”

Guo Dan nodded and said: "Especially in terms of money, whoever asks me to make a penny less, I will hate him for the rest of my life." ”

“......!”

"No, I have to save it." Guo Dan pondered for a while, and said: "Layman, please help me draft a donation notice, saying that the construction of the three hospitals lacks funds, and I hope that the kind-hearted people who are concerned about the construction of Kaifeng will donate some donations." ”

Aunt Xu looked at Guo Dan in astonishment, only to feel that this topic jumped inexplicably.

Gao Shang didn't quite understand, and asked, "Guo Dan, what do you mean by this?" ”

Guo smiled lightly: "Of course, it's to help them, and by the way, help yourself." If they don't donate, then I will publish the specific scores and the candidates' information according to the rules, and for the sake of fairness, it will be for a year, and if they donate, their scores will be a secret forever. ”

For a year? Are you going to whip the corpse?

Gao Shang can be regarded as an eye-opener, he originally thought that he was more fond of money, but in front of Guo Dan, he was really ashamed of himself, not in the same dimension, and said: "Guo Dan, do you lack this money?" ”

"No." Guo Dan said bluntly: "Even if one person donates one or two, it's a lot!" ”

"That's right! Even if each person donates one tael, there are tens of thousands of taels! Gao Shang couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and suddenly felt that Guo Dan was really a genius, and whatever the hell fell into his hands, it would become a profitable business.

Guo Dan looked at Aunt Xu again.

Aunt Xu nodded and smiled: "It's time for them to pay some price and have a long memory." ”

On the same day, Guo Dan posted a notice, saying that he had encountered some financial difficulties and lacked funds for the construction of the three hospitals, and hoped that people of insight could donate some donations.

Many people were a little confused when they saw this notice.

Is Guo Dan poor and crazy?

You bless the poor, but the poor have no money to donate to you, and the landlords and gentry, you have all offended, and none of them are left behind, and the ghosts will donate money to you.

Many people pointed to the notice, sarcastically sarcastically saying that Guo Dan was talking about a dream.

But what is amazing is that there are so many kind-hearted people in Kaifeng Mansion, the threshold of the government is about to be trampled on the second day, and the people who come to donate are lined up in a long line, and the people in line are all Tsing Yi hats, and the owners will certainly not be stupid enough to run to donate money.

They're fighting!

Grab it!

Drag the silver and smash it in!

When it comes to doing good deeds, they really don't target anyone.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, it is the first time that such a positive scene has appeared.

"My young master's surname is Li Mingming, do you understand?"

A little boy in a green hat put five taels of silver on the table and whispered to the registration officer.

"Understood, understood."

The man immediately gave the little guy a look of understanding.

The little guy was completely relieved, the rumors outside were really true, as long as he donated money, he could eliminate the disaster.

......

"A penny?"

The registration staff looked up at an idler, looking slightly dissatisfied, but he didn't say anything, just wrote an incomplete name in the registration book, and the word in the middle became a dot.

The idler asked, "Why don't you write your full name?" ”

"This ink also costs money." The registration officer was very upset.

Uncle, do I look like a person who collects a penny?

The implication is that your money will be enough to buy this point, and when the score is announced, the most you can do is to put a point on your son's name.

The idler immediately handed over two taels, and then exchanged for a whole corpse.

He had wanted to make some for himself.

But he didn't want to think about who was going to make the money.

It's Guo Dan!

Can you get it?

For many candidates, this money is just a trivial matter, and the reputation is big, if the test is twenty or thirty points, it must not make people laugh to death, can this still hold up their heads and be a man?

They are willing to donate this money.

......

"Blackmail! Guo Dan is clearly blackmailing those candidates. ”

So far, Huang Daxiao has also reacted, and after a long time, it turned out that Guo Dan was going to blackmail the candidates, saying: "On the one hand, he asked people to donate, but on the other hand, he spread the news, saying that he wanted to announce the specific scores and information of the candidates, which is not blackmail." Brother Jiang, we can't ignore this matter! ”

Jiang Yinglan sighed and said: "You and I both know that he is blackmailing, but who can prove it, he didn't force everyone to donate money, and whether to announce the scores, he could have decided for himself, this is not the imperial examination, we can't intervene." If you want to blame those candidates, they are self-righteous and speak wildly, where is this like a scholar, now it's okay, let people grasp the sore spot, I think they deserve it. ”

Huang Daxiao was speechless.

That's the case, who let you blow so ferociously in advance, some people even have the mentality of having fun, and don't plan to be this lawyer, now it's okay, play into the ditch.

And Su Xu and Zhao Qinghe also understood that not only did they not break it, but they also donated some money, because many candidates also have a relationship with them, and if they do too badly in the exam, they will also be embarrassed!

In less than two days, the donation exceeded 30,000 taels.

The construction of the three courtyards really didn't need Guo Dan's money, and he also made some money.

When the money is in place, it is easy to say anything.

Guo Dan immediately announced the rules for reviewing the papers, he was very guilty and said that because there were too many test papers, he was not prepared enough, but the construction of the three hospitals was imminent, so as long as the score deducted exceeded ten points, then the rest would not be corrected, unless you feel unconvinced, you can check it yourself, and I hope you will forgive me.

My pot!

It's all my pot!

In such a batch, except for those who are qualified, the real scores of the rest of the people are not known.

Since he doesn't know, there is no need to announce it, he will inform it in the form of a notice, that is, he will not release the list, and this face is in place.

Those candidates were relieved to hear this news, because Guo Dan only recruited 200 people, and there would definitely be many, many people who were defeated, which is not very embarrassing, as long as the scores are not announced, they actually already know how many points they score.

But it will be a secret forever.

It's well spent.

But in fact, Guo Dan is a 20-point score line, and once 20 points are deducted, then the rest does not need to be reviewed again.

He set the standard at 90 points, but judging by the number of donations, he was very worried that there would be no 200 people who would be 90 points, and wouldn't it be embarrassing.

But if you can't pass the 80 points, you really can't do it.

"Your previous worries seem to be too much."

Aunt Xu handed a report card to Guo Dan and said, "There are still two hundred and thirty-two people who have reached more than ninety, and five hundred and fifty-one people who have reached eighty. ”

Guo Dan was overjoyed when he heard it, but he complained: "These talents are inevitably too low-key, and they don't stand up and be arrogant, which makes me panic and uneasy, and they plan to lower the score line, which is really unreasonable." ”

Aunt Xu said: "It's not to blame them, because nearly fifty percent of those who pass the exam are children and grandchildren of knife and pen officials, forty percent are children or talents from relatively poor families, and the rest are the children of businessmen, where do they dare to be arrogant." But this is also a crooked fight, because I believe that these people are very eager to get this position, and they are also capable enough to do it. ”
