From showing talent to lifting people, this is a big hurdle, a big, big hurdle, much harsher than thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge-

How many readers do you have in one province? However, it can only produce more than 100 people, and less than 40 or 50 people, which shows its difficulty.

The vast majority of Xiucai can't be lifted, and they often participate in the township test several times, more than a dozen times, or even dozens of times, but they often die of old talent. Of course, they are not without a way out.

The tribute system is a way out for them.

If the student cannot be promoted for a long time, he will gradually ascend from epiphytic to proliferated, from proliferation to proliferation, and from subordinate to tributary. Gongsheng is divided into five types: tribute, year tribute, engong, excellent tribute, and vice tribute.

Among them, the tribute is the most difficult, and it is selected once every 12 years. The deputy tribute is second, and it is elected once every three years, and it is selected from among the students who have won the deputy list in the township examination. Again, it is selected once a year, and it is selected in turn according to the time of study. Engong and Yougong, on the other hand, are both indefinite, and they may not be able to catch up when they will be able to catch up. For example, Engong is a student who pays tribute at national celebrations.

The same goes for lifting people.

People were raised to participate in the imperial court examination, and those who were admitted to the Jinshi were a minority, a very small minority, and most of them failed. And most of the people still can't pass the exam several times, such as in the Jiajing Dynasty, Mr. Zhenchuan, who enjoyed a reputation in later generations, was called "Ouyang Xiu today" at the time, and later generations praised his prose as "the first in Mingwen", which was raised in the nineteenth year of Jiajing, but it was the eighth time in the test [one] [this reading] novel, and he became a jinshi at the age of sixty. It can be seen that it is difficult.

In order to give these people a day to get ahead, that is, they are selected from among those who have failed more than three times in a row and are awarded official positions. This measure is called the "big challenge". Most of the people selected are appointed as instructors in local schools.

The tribute system is similar to that of previous dynasties, and the threshold is much lower than that of filial piety - as long as it is long-term, as for the rest, of course, it is the official in charge of this matter. Once this is something that can be done by a human being, then it almost goes wrong.

This Fan Dongcai Fan County Zun, who took the exam from 16 to 20, failed to pass the exam three or four times, and was really desperate, so he entrusted Fan Yongdou. Fan Yongdou also found a relationship, so he turned him into a tribute student.

As the name suggests, Gongsheng is a tribute to Guozijian and becomes a student. In fact, Gongsheng did not study in prison, but one of their biggest advantages in obtaining the qualification of Tai students was that they could be appointed to official positions through "interpretation".

In other words, they can directly become officials. What is the purpose of the ten years of cold windows of readers? Isn't it just to be an official?

Of course, most people only have the qualifications to be officials, but they can't be officials, and even if they can be officials, most of them are only school officials in local schools. I don't have much power, I don't have a lot of work, and of course I don't know where to go if I want to embezzle...... Just eat like this, wait for death, and the rest of your life will pass.

But Fan Dongcai is not an ordinary person!

So, he first granted the history of Xiu County, and then promoted to the county minister, and then served as the official of Pingyang Prefecture, and then awarded the Lingshi County Order of Shanxi, and later transferred to the current county order of this Yang and the current county. It is said to be flat, but when it comes to oil and water, Yang He is not comparable to Lingshi, and it can be regarded as a high rise.

Fan's family? Fan Yongdou's family? The current home of the eight Jin merchants? The home of the eight imperial merchants after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs in that time and space? Xuanhe's century-old eight imperial merchants?

It turns out that he was born in such a traitorous family?

When Dong Ce heard the words Fan family, he only felt that there seemed to be a flash of inspiration in his mind, and at this moment, he seemed to have captured something. But a flash of inspiration is only a flash in the end, so short that it may not even be a sixtieth of a moment.

When Dong Ce went to capture the memories again, he couldn't remember it at all.

He sat there, squinting his eyes and thinking quietly for a long time, but finally he could only sigh, that touch of spiritual light could no longer be captured. But Dong Ce is not very anxious, such things, I can't remember, the more I can't think of it, you don't care about him, you can't think of it in a while.

He thought for a moment, this Fan County has been in the south-central part of Shanxi, in the area of Fenfu in southern Hebei Province, which is further south than Taiyuan Mansion, whether it is Jiexiu County or Lingshi County, he has no friendship with Su Yimo.

Seeing him pondering, Liu San didn't bother, and sat there quietly eating and drinking.

Dong Ce suddenly straightened up and said, "I'm annoying, you take me to the courtyard where Dong Zhongyong killed people to have a look." ”

Liu San hurriedly said: "Don't dare to be tired." ”

……

It was early afternoon.

Willow Street during the day is not very lively, and it can even be described as deserted.

In the words of later generations, the sex service industry is the pillar industry of Willow Street, and because of this, it is also deserted. And looking for a sister, unless it is those sons and brothers who are very leisurely and leisurely, and they want to have a wine party, otherwise, there are few days to go. After all, I am busy doing things during the day, and I only have leisure at night, and the chance of meeting acquaintances during the day will increase a lot. It's not that they're ashamed, but they're afraid of the women in the family. After all, most of the people who come here are not rich and powerful people, they are all middle-class families with small assets, so it is impossible to ignore the opinions of the other half of the family.

And in the daytime, for the industry of prostitutes in Qinglou, it is almost a conventional practice - to make up for sleep. And unlike those high-end green houses, for the women in these prostitutes. Only those who received guests the day before were eligible to make up for sleep, and those who did not receive guests the day before were doing their jobs.

On the clean and tidy Willow Street, there are only sparse pedestrians, and these pedestrians are either turtle men who are waiting in brothels, or women who are dressed quite flamboyantly and enchantingly. The turtles came out to buy food, ingredients, and even all the things they needed for daily life, such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, etc., while the sisters just came out to buy some rouge pollen, fragrant fans, cloths and the like.

These prostitutes cook their own meals and tailor their own clothes. A few men, a few women, a person in charge, live behind closed doors during the day, if it is not for this business, it is no different from ordinary people.

In fact, even if it is deserted, it is not so person, or because it is now afternoon, and many people are taking a nap. In the urban class of the Ming Dynasty, the habit of napping was very popular, and they were the most healthy and enjoyable people in the world at this time. It is not like the Western aristocracy of this era, who hopes to maintain the 'essence and vitality' in the body by not bathing for a lifetime, so as to achieve the purpose of longevity and health. Unfortunately, they often die from vitamin-deficient sepsis, plagues caused by too many fleas and parasites, and the Black Death caused by rats.

And the root of everything lies in the bad living habits and dirty living conditions - in Europe at this time, Lisbon, which is one of the largest cities in the world, has no drainage system at all, the streets are full of sewage and footless sludge, and the aristocratic ladies just poop and pee on the streets, because there are no public toilets.

The castle where the aristocracy lived rarely had window holes in it, so the interior was dark. However, cracks and cracks are inevitable in the walls, so it is bitterly cold indoors in winter. Castle cleaning was problematic. Dust and cobwebs can be found everywhere, as well as household garbage and dead people's bones that they forgot to clean. There are many bedbugs on the bed, hundreds of them lurking, forever bloodthirsty, waiting for them every night.

At this time, the level of medicine in Europe was outrageous, and it was possible to die of infection if it was scratched. If you catch a cold, you may die from a cold. If you eat farmhouse food, you may die of diarrhea and dehydration. If you fight often, you will easily lose your arms and legs, and you will basically not be far from death.

The southern countryside of the Ming Dynasty, mixed peanut trees, warblers flying around, small bridges and flowing water, white stone bridges, awning boats, splashed ink landscape paintings, exquisite towns and villages will not appear in Europe at all. The countryside is like a concentration camp, only more unsanitary and inhumane. People have tangled hair and lice crawling inside. Their mouths smell like swill jars or gutters, and they look like illustrations from forensic science textbooks. People who can show a good mouth of teeth when laughing must be aristocrats, and even nobles do not have the habit of brushing their teeth. Their faces were covered in pus, scars, and a thick layer of sweat, mud, and dander.

This is the real Europe of this era, miserable, helpless, real, terrifying, the whole of Europe is like a filthy and stinking sewer, or a garbage pit. People live like wild beasts. Of course, although there is a thousand-year-old gap between them and Huaxia in this regard, this garbage pit is gradually becoming cleaner. And in Dong Ce's time and space, with the entry of the Manchu Qing Dynasty and the arrival of winter, this land of China will become a giant garbage pit larger than that of Europe, and the people of China will sink in it for hundreds of years.

Dong Ce and others appeared at the corner of the street.

Outside the street is the 'bamboo shoots and chicken porridge shop', and on both sides of the street there are several shops selling incense powder, a ready-to-wear store and cloth village, two grain stores, three restaurants, and two grocery stores that sell everything but have no things.

These storefronts can basically stretch from the street entrance to the length of about fifteen zhang, and inside, between the willow trees, are some portal prostitutes.

Dong Ce's party naturally attracted the attention of others, after all, they were too conspicuous. There are more than a dozen people in the group, all of whom are tall and sturdy men, with a fierce aura on their bodies, and they know that they are not easy to mess with at a glance. Among them was a tall young man, who was also very handsome, and was dressed in brocade and ermine. The eyes of the characters on the market are very poisonous, and it is natural to see that this person is either rich or expensive, and it is more likely that he is rich and expensive.
