I use deputy job plus talent.

Chapter 243

As the most important imperial examination in this world, the review of the courtyard examination is extremely strict. Before entering, you have to go through dozens of checkpoints, and you must make sure that there is no entrainment or cheating before you will be included.

The number of children who participated in the college entrance examination in Datong County this time is about a thousand, and the number of students admitted in the end is only about ten. Depending on the results, sometimes there will be more, but at most it will not exceed 15, and sometimes it will be less , or even as low as five people.

Therefore, the admission ratio is probably more than one to one hundred, or even around one to two hundred.

Due to the great attention of the imperial court, there was basically no case of fraud for personal gain in the examination. Once discovered, they would be executed immediately, which shows that Yueguo attaches great importance to the selection of scholars through the imperial examination.

According to Song Fulu's calculations, there is only one scholar for every [-] scholars in Leguo, so the ratio of scholars who pass the exam is about [-] to [-].

In the country of the previous life, the admission ratio of doctoral students was about [-] to [-]. In other words, the rarity of a scholar was far higher than that of doctoral students in modern society.

So don’t look down on scholarly talents. In ancient times, there was a saying that ordinary people used to describe scholarly talents. This sentence is...a scholar is a god and a man!

From here, we can see the status of the ancient scholars, each one is not simple, let alone the later Juren, Gongshi and Jinshi, their status is even more not simple.

In Yueguo, the provincial examination is held every three years after the hospital examination, and the general examination and palace examination are after the provincial examination. In other words, a batch of Jinshi will be born every three years or so.

The number of Jinshi admitted each time is about 50 people, but the number of people who take the imperial examination in Leguo every year is more than a few million, and in three years, it will be more than 2000 million people.

With so many people, only fifty Jinshi were admitted in the end, and the admission ratio was as high as 40 to one. One can imagine the difficulty of obtaining a scholar through the imperial examination.

So don't look down on the ancient Jinshi, the difficulty of obtaining it is beyond ordinary people's imagination.

After entering the examination room, Song Fulu was assigned to a small room, which contained almost nothing except pens, ink, paper and inkstones. Song Fulu had to stay here for the next few days.

The test questions came down quickly, and after looking at the test questions, it was really simple. If the original owner hadn't been a little less flexible, I'm afraid he would have passed the exam.

Song Fulu wrote like a god, and quickly finished the entire paper. During the period, an examiner passed by nearby, and seeing Song Fulu's paper and handwriting, he couldn't help nodding.

Just looking at his age again, the examiner couldn't help but sigh.

Song Fulu finished every subject with ease, and it was not difficult for him, even Song Fulu was sure to get full marks.

After several subjects were finished, Song Fulu left the examination room, waiting for the day when the results would be announced.

On the way, I heard the comments of other students, and most of them were worried about the examination.

"Compared to the last exam, the difficulty this time is much higher. I'm afraid I might fail again."

"The greater the difficulty, the fewer the number of people admitted. Let's wait for the next class."

"Isn't that Li Wenhua, a well-known old boy in Tang County? I heard that he failed the exam more than 20 times, and now his hair and beard are gray and he still doesn't give up."

"Don't pay attention to this kind of old guy, it is impossible for them to pass the exam in this lifetime."

……

Song Fulu ignored these people and went straight back to the rented inn. After looking through the classics for a while, he continued to look for special snacks in the streets and alleys.

Three days later, the day when the results of the college examination were announced.

Song Fulu came near the examination room and saw the name on the top at a glance.

The first in the hospital examination, Li Wenhua, the head of the case!

Although he thought that he might win the first place, Song Fulu didn't expect it to be so smooth. With a smile on his face, Song Fulu went to go through the relevant procedures for being promoted to a scholar.

Soon, with the relevant procedures and certificates, Song Fulu returned to the inn to check out.

At this time, many people had already come around the inn, and when they saw Song Fulu, they immediately exclaimed.

"Is that Li Wenhua the chief of the case? Sure enough, he looks majestic and majestic, and he can get the position of the chief of the court for such a difficult question."

"I heard that Chief Li is already in his early 50s. He has lived to the end of his life and has learned a lot. He is finally a high school scholar, and he is also No. 1 in the college examination."

"It's really a role model for my generation. At such an old age, I am still tireless in learning."

……

After Song Fulu dealt with it casually, he rushed home with a salute, and a group of people behind him continued to flatter, even though Song Fulu could no longer hear him.

Being able to become the first person in the court case is worthy of respect even at an old age, especially the difficulty of this court exam.

Some rich and noble families in Datong County began to inquire about Song Fulu's situation, wanting to see if there was any possibility to win him over. Although he was a little older, it did not hinder teaching and educating people.

A scholar who can get the head of the court will definitely be able to teach good students.

As for the news that Song Fulu passed the hospital examination and got the first place in the school examination, it had already spread to Tang County and Binghu Town through carrier pigeons one step earlier.

Knowing that Song Fulu, an old boy, had passed the hospital examination this time and got the case, the whole Li family was shocked.

"Quick... Hurry up and get someone to pick up Anzhi. Our Li family has finally produced a good seed for learning. The chief of the court, this is a grand event that has never happened in hundreds of years." Li Guangsheng, the old man of the Li family, began to feel excited. Trembling, he quickly ordered the servants below to pick up Song Fulu.

A group of Li family children responded again and again, and began to act one after another.

"Immediately inform the sons and daughters of Li's case chief and let them know about it."

"The thatched hut at the head of Li's case has long been uninhabitable. It will be demolished and rebuilt immediately. At least it will need a compound with three entrances and three exits."

"Let's see which house has more clever maids and servants, find two and send them to the mansion of Chief Li."

……

If you become a scholar, your status will be different immediately. Although you are not qualified to be an official, you are already able to protect a family. The Li family has not produced a scholar for decades, and Song Fulu is the first in decades.

If the land can be put under Song Fulu's name, the Li family can pay dozens of times less tax every year, and the whole family will prosper for a period of time, so how can we not pay attention to it.

In particular, Song Fulu is still the chief case in Datong County this time, and his status is even more extraordinary. Even the county master has to respect him, let alone a member of the Li family.

On the only way Song Fulu came back, the members of the Li family picked up Song Fulu and happily invited him to the carriage with gongs and drums.

Song Fulu did not refuse, according to the wish of the original owner, Guangzong Yaozu is also an important part.

Besides, the Li family treated him well in the past. When he was young, the expenses for his studies were funded by members of the Li family. It was only later that the original owner repeatedly failed the exams, so he was disgusted by everyone. Teaching and educating people for the family, it is normal for the family to have opinions on him.

In the original owner's wish, there was no intention of revenge on the family, but just to let everyone in the family look at him with admiration, and dare not point fingers at him anymore.

The people of the Li family were also considered to be very interesting. On the way back, people kept coming to apologize and offer expensive gifts, obviously to make amends for laughing at the original owner before.

Even some neighbors in the neighborhood rushed to plead guilty and express their apology.

For those who did not go too far, Song Fulu accepted the compensation and the matter was over. As for those who did too much, he didn't accept anything, and the other party understood what Song Fulu meant.

Although it is not necessary to revenge these guys to death, it will still teach some lessons.

As for the original owner's two sons, they crawled to Song Fulu's carriage and begged for forgiveness from their father. His wife and children also followed closely, wanting to play the emotional card.

Looking at the arrogant son and daughter-in-law, Song Fulu shook his head and ignored them.

It's a pity that in the wish of the original owner, there was no intention of revenge on these two dogs, otherwise Song Fulu would have to let them go to jail.

But if they do this, no one will take care of their children, and I'm afraid they won't be able to survive. After all, they are their own grandchildren in this world, and Song Fulu can't kill them all.

In the final analysis, it is difficult for an upright official to decide on housework, even with Song Fulu's strength.

At most, I would ignore it and not let it take advantage of it. For this kind of person, it can already be called a blow.

Moreover, the neighbors in the neighborhood would look down on them if they knew about it, and Li Tengzhong and Li Junzhong's life would not be so easy in the future.

Even if Song Fulu didn't speak, the rest of the Li family would not wait to see them. Li Tengzhong and Li Junzhong knew this well, so seeing Song Fulu ignore them, they both wailed in despair.

"Father, we know we were wrong, please give us a chance, for the sake of our grandchildren."

"Woooooo... It was all our fault in the past, please forgive us, Father, we will never dare again."

……

Song Fulu turned a deaf ear, he didn't even raise the curtain of the car, and he didn't even look at those two unfilial things.

Since they got married, they have basically never returned home. The original owner and his wife exhausted everything for the two to get married. In the end, the old couple only had a dilapidated thatched cottage.

Even so, these two dogs are still finding fault in various ways, thinking how harsh their parents have been to them. If this is the case, then they should never have any contact.

If it weren't for the two daughters to help them out these years, it is still unknown whether the original owner and his wife could live to be 50 years old. Where have the two dogs gone for many years?

Even in this situation, the old couple didn't go to the Yamen to accuse them of being unfilial. They were good enough for them, and they were thick-skinned enough to want to shamelessly rush forward to take advantage of them.

If it weren't for the soul of the original owner, and the scruples of the grandchildren, Song Fulu would definitely kill them, which would be considered cheap for them.

Seeing that Song Fulu ignored Li Tengzhong and Li Junzhong, the people around applauded.

"This is how you should treat unfilial sons. After so many years of marriage, you don't come back to see your parents, and you don't fulfill your obligation to support them. They are worse than pigs and dogs."

"The crow feeds back, the lamb kneels and sucks. Li Tengzhong and Li Junzhong are not even comparable to animals. Chief Li is doing the right thing. We should learn from Chief Li."

"In the past, I persuaded Li Tengzhong and Li Junzhong to treat their parents better and put filial piety first, but these two guys always said that their parents were wrong, and they didn't want to be filial. Now they deserve what they are doing now."

"After we go back, we must sue the old lady to expel these two unfilial and unrighteous things from our Li family's genealogy."

……

Because the family's thatched cottage had been demolished and rebuilt, Mrs. Li specially arranged for Song Fulu to live temporarily in an exquisite courtyard of his own, and then went there after Song Fulu's house was built.

Li Juanzhong's family and Li Panzhong's family were waiting there. Seeing Song Fulu's car approaching, the group rushed to greet them.

"Brother Li, we were the ones who felt sorry for you before, so please be kind to me, don't be as knowledgeable as us grassroots."

"Brother Li is a Wenqu star who came down to earth, we can't see through it with our naked eyes, and we even dissuaded Brother Li, please don't take it to heart."

……

The in-laws apologized so sincerely that they almost knelt down for Song Fulu.

Song Fulu helped them up, but didn't care much about it.

After all, in the previous situation, the two in-laws allowed Li Juanzhong and Li Panzhong to help him all the time. To be honest, they did a good job.

If it were another family, they would have forcibly prevented the daughter-in-law from helping and supporting the two elderly people. After all, according to the rules of this world, the son and daughter-in-law are usually the ones who support the parents.

The original owner's son and daughter-in-law are nothing, and they have no obligation to support them at all. These two daughters have been taking care of them all these years, and the in-laws have also been busy with them. It is normal to have a bad attitude.

Song Fulu accepted it frankly, and no longer cared about it. The two daughters cried with pear blossoms and rain, rejoicing that their father finally passed the examination of scholar in his 50s.

How can you not be happy that your wish for so many years has finally come true.

Busy and happy, Song Fulu handled various things with ease.

Regarding the matter of the land property affiliation, Song Fulu gave places to go out according to the closeness of the relationship. It goes without saying that the two daughters naturally went out, and the rest gave places to those who are relatively close to the Li family.

Naturally, the two daughters don't need to pay for the land, but the other members of the Li family will give a certain amount of grain and vegetables every year, which is equivalent to about half of the tax reduction and exemption. It can be described as a win-win situation for both parties.

Relying solely on the hundreds of acres of land that is attached to it, Song Fulu can eat and drink without worrying about food and drink, and has a lot of surplus every year.

If Song Fulu can pass the provincial examination in the future and become a master of Juren, the land that can be attached to his name will reach more than a thousand acres in one fell swoop. The most important thing is that the thousand acres of land will not have to pay taxes at all, which is also one of the privileges of a master.

And the other privilege of Master Juren, which is also the most important privilege, is that he can become an official. Once he becomes an official, at worst he can become a middle-level and high-level official in the county. With a little effort, he can get a lot of assets. It's worth too much money.

The status of a master of Juren is also far superior to that of a scholar. The two are not at the same level at all, and the difficulty of the examination is also several times different.

Song Fulu's next goal is to take the provincial examination in August this year. As long as he can pass, he can become a Juren master.
