The talents recommended by each county came to Liaodong County.
Every year when it is time for the procuratorial system to recommend talents, the families of each county will send money to the county to compete for two recommendation places in the county, and then the county will recommend these two people to the county, and the two people will be sent to the county. Most of the money sent by the family was distributed to the county, and the county finally selected two people with the most real talents from the talents recommended by each county to recommend to the Chang'an court. Can only recommend two people.
Of course, in order to prevent overfilling the number, each county can only send two people to the county government, and it is necessary to send money to the county government in advance.
For now, Liaodong County Government sets a price of [-] gold for each recommender in the county.
Twenty gold doesn't seem like much, but it's just the money to spend on recommending to the county. It's not certain whether the county guard will choose it. If not selected, the county government can't refund the money, and the twenty gold will be wasted up.
The [-] gold threshold alone excludes most of the impoverished families. As for those Luzuo people, the procuratorial system has never had anything to do with them. They can only face the loess and the sky all their lives.
Twenty gold coins is just a threshold, and whether you can be selected depends on real talent and learning.
After Wang Luojiao applied for [-] gold funds from Wang Tairan, she asked Wang Changsheng, magistrate of Dashi County, to recommend Wang Changye and Wang Changyu to Liaodong County, and Wang Changsheng recommended Changye and Changyu to Liaodong County. The forty gold was handed over to Liaodong County.
Fortunately, Wang Changsheng was the county magistrate of Dashi County, so he didn't need to bribe the county. If other families wanted to recommend their own family children, each person would have to spend far more than twenty gold.
There are a total of 36 counties in Liaodong, and each county recommended two people. A total of [-] people came to Liaodong County.
For these 36 people alone, the Liaodong County government charged a threshold fee of 720 gold, and the prefect of Liaodong County laughed from ear to ear.
In the previous period of Emperor Wen Jing, Liaodong County could only earn two to three hundred gold a year by recommending talents, and it was easy to be punished by the emperor for making up money.
Since the implementation of the probation system, I can earn more than 700 gold every year, and I don’t have to worry about making up the money, because the county government can openly eliminate scholars who have no real talents, and they don’t need to refund the money to the major families.
The only ones who suffer are those powerful gentry, they spend more money than before, and they have to bear the consequences of the failure of the recommendation.
After the inspection and judging system, the court earned more money, and the people in Luzuo remained the same as before, but the powerful gentry spent more money. This was simply asking the gentry to pay taxes to the court in disguise.
Therefore, everyone has a new understanding of Emperor Liu Che's means of making money.
"Everyone, please get up!"
The governor of the county ordered the children of the powerful nobles to get up, and said to everyone: "The assessment begins, go in one by one to accept the assessment of the governor, the two with the most real talents will stay and be recommended to Chang'an, and the rest, please go back to your home .”
"promise!"
Everyone agreed, and then respectfully knelt down on their seats, waiting for the palace lord to summon them.
"Wang Changyu of Dashi County, please enter the inner room and accept the assessment of the Fujun!" Not long after, the Juncheng shouted to everyone kneeling in the room.
"The student is Wang Changyu." Wang Changyu got up quickly, first saluted the magistrate, then walked slowly into the inner room, and said respectfully to the magistrate in the inner room: "Student Wang Changyu, I pay my respects to the magistrate."
"Well, sit down." The governor of Liaodong nodded with a smile, and then began to question and assess Wang Changyu who was kneeling below: "The river is flooding, and there are millions of refugees in the counties of the East. If you are the governor of Donghai County, what should you do? "
"..." Wang Changyu was silent for a long time, and then replied: "If the student is the governor of Donghai County, when..."
Wang Changyu's answer was quite satisfactory, and there was nothing wrong with it, but there was nothing outstanding about it either.
Afterwards, the county guard assessed some issues, such as how to deal with the invasion of the Huns, if a small country in the Western Regions came to worship, but the envoy of that small country in the Western Regions was unruly, how to deal with it, and for example, there are refugees rebelling in the county under your jurisdiction , or even the rebellion of the princes next to you, how to deal with it, etc.
In addition to assessing these practical issues, the county guard also assessed the content of some classic books, such as the Confucian classic "Spring and Autumn", and "Book of Songs" and so on.
"Well, you should step down first." After hearing Wang Changyu's answers, the sheriff didn't say yes or no, but asked Wang Changyu to step down, and looked at the list of recommenders on the bamboo slips, and then said to the side Liaodong Commander ordered: "The next one is Li Gan from Fang County."

Royal Manor
"Sigh, I don't know if the two children Chang Ye and Chang Yu can pass the county government's assessment."
"My royal family recommends two people to the county mansion every year. Over the years, a total of more than ten people have been recommended, but only Chang Jiong and Chang Sheng were recommended by the county mansion to the Chang'an court."
Wang Tairan was looking forward to the fact that the two children of Wang Laojiao's cousin could pass the examination, and then he began to care about the emperor's request that the big families move to Chang'an to guard the Maoling Mausoleum.
As the head of the Wang family, he has too many things to deal with.
Overseas expansion needs his instructions, the salt and iron industry needs his instructions, textile workshops and winemaking workshops need his instructions, and the two leaders of the mountains and forests, Wang Anke and Wang Luoxi, are always waiting for his instructions. He was also required to give instructions on the trade in Shi County, and even the head of the family's children marrying wives and having children, and accepting male favors. tenant farmers, etc.
That's all for nothing. Over the years, the imperial court has cut leeks more and more frequently against the powerful gentry, and he still has to find a way to deal with the imperial court's policies.
After working hard all day, he is already in his 40s with gray hair, coughing every night, and his body is changing day by day.
"When Changzhi comes back, I will return the position of head of the Wang family to him, and I will go to Luoshan Villa with Caiwei to spend my old age peacefully..."
At this moment, Wang Tairan already has the idea of retiring, and being the head of the Wang family is really exhausting.
Although he was thinking of retiring, as the head of the royal family, he still continued to deal with the royal family's affairs responsibly, picking up the fields, tenants and farmers on the table to check.
This bamboo slip records the real population of the Wang family’s fields. Among them, the total number of fields is 47 mu, with 870 tenant farmers, 320 serfs, and 790 free citizens, far exceeding the number reported to the Wang family. The imperial court's [-] acres of fertile land and zero tenant farmers.
Such a ruling population is already equivalent to a small county in the Central Plains.
The real property of the Wang family has long been hundreds of times higher than the standard of 300 million yuan for moving to Chang'an, but by various means, the court mistakenly believed that the Wang family's property was only [-] yuan, so the Wang family did not have to move to Chang'an, but stayed here forever. Liaodong.
Of the 47 mu of land, of which 22 mu were originally from Luoyue, 15 mu were newly reclaimed by people in the mountains and forests, [-] mu in total in the Liaodong Islands, and [-] mu in overseas islands.
