Chapter 126 Xue Pan
The shadow of the sun slanted to the west until evening.

Zhou Xun had already finished answering the question half an hour ago.

Turn over the pages of paper to check whether there are any mistakes or omissions, whether the scroll surface is unclean, and then correct a few inadequacies and copy them.

It took half an hour to choose every word carefully.

"call--"

Zhou Xun let out a foul breath.

Carefully arrange the answer sheet, mark the serial number and question number, fold it neatly, take the parchment bag pressed on the left hand side, put it in, seal the opening, and then roll up the waste sheet and throw it into the bamboo basket at the foot middle.

There was a small bell by the wall, and he rang the bell.

The clear ringing of the bell spread far away in the Gongyuan.

Soon two clerks came to collect the papers. They filled out their names on the spot, affixed their seat numbers, handed back the nameplates, and they could go out.

Submitting papers in advance is allowed, but at most one hour in advance.

After handing in the paper, the young man stretched his body and glanced at it inadvertently.

It turned out that there was a servant who had been wandering around here, always looking at him, and he had already noticed it.

"It disappeared in the afternoon. It seems that the calculation failed, or there were other plans."

"The examination room is the domain of the gods, no matter what you do, the risk is too great!"

"It's outside the examination room, so it's easy to start."

"Come on, I'm also curious, who is counting on me."

In fact, Zhou Xun also knew that he was safe.

In the mansion city, there is the mansion city god, and the city god can generally monitor the inside and outside of the city, but this kind of divine power gradually fades away after ten miles out of the city.

In the city, if you want to hide it from the City God, you can directly use Taoism without being discovered...

"If anyone can cast spells without the knowledge of the City God, count me in first!"

"It must be using mortal means, but this is Fucheng!"

It is not that there are no dark corners in the mansion city, but the law and order is guaranteed on the surface, and there are always yamen guards patrolling.

As long as Zhou Xun doesn't choose the path by himself, he will generally not be in danger.

After leaving the examination room, Zhou Xun squinted his eyes and yawned seeing that the sun had been half covered by the sculpture in front of the Gong Yuan.

"The food in the examination room is really hard to swallow. Why don't you go to Ting Yulou to eat something delicious."

Zhou Xun talked to himself, dawdled for a while, and then left in scattered steps.

A dozen or so steps behind him, a sneaky servant trotted away holding a cup of tea.

Hearing the slight sound of footsteps, the corners of the young man's mouth curved slightly.

"It's not in vain that I painstakingly designed this scene. I sent Wang Liu and Xiao Wu away today, so I can stretch my muscles and bones."

On the side of the street, someone is selling candied haws, bunches of sugar-coated hawthorns, which are stuck on grass figurines with bamboo sticks.

The hawkers selling candied haws put straw mats on the ground, and just sat there waiting for customers to come to their door, not even bothering to shout.

Seeing a well-dressed young man stop by, the peddler who bought candied haws got up.

"Young master, would you like some bunches of candied haws? You only need three pennies for a bunch, and you don't need money if it's not sweet! It's all fresh hawthorn, and the brown sugar boiled at home is delicious! How about two bunches? Young master, young master." ?”

Zhou Xun took a bunch of candied haws and looked at them. The hawthorns were big and the sugar coating was thick, so they were not expensive to sell for three pennies.

"Bring two skewers and wrap them up for me."

Thinking of Xiaohong and Xueluo, who were still children, he changed his words again:
"Wait, two strings are not enough, let's add... ten strings, a total of twelve strings of candied haws, 36 characters."

He untied his purse, counted out 36 copper coins, and put them on the straw mat.

"Okay, you take it."

The peddler packed ten bunches of candied haws with a large paper strap, and glanced at the amount of money, it was right.

He took the candied haws, held them in his hands and bit them on the spot.

Sweet and sour, the taste is great. Hawthorn is appetizing and stimulating. If you eat it on an empty stomach, you will become more and more hungry.

Zhou Xun's stomach was empty, and after eating two bunches of candied haws, he had already started singing.

Frowning slightly, he controlled the flow of Qi and blood in his abdomen to prevent the sound from coming out.

Then he walked quickly to Tingyu Tower.

Tingyulou is a small restaurant close to the Gongyuan. It is very close and just across the street. It is a well-known century-old restaurant.

This restaurant has five floors, one side faces the river, diners can see the river from the upstairs.

The waiter in the shop in front of the gate is used to seeing students taking exams, even if Zhou Xun is a little younger, it is not uncommon.

So Zhou Xun was led to a small cubicle on the second floor by Xiaoer graciously.

Such compartments are cleverly separated from each other by various bonsai, screens, stairs, and pillars.And most of the compartments can be assigned a window, the lighting is not bad, and the spatial layout is ingenious.

Zhou Xun also thought it was good, so he asked.

"This floor is very elegant, and the layout is exquisite, which shows the ingenuity. I don't know which famous artist it came from?"

Xiao Er bent down slightly, took the towel from his shoulders, and wiped it on the polished table.

While answering fluently.

"You are not a local, are you? Judging from your accent, you are from Kaohua County. You must be a scholar who came to take the government examination today. Who here doesn't know that this Tingyu Building was furnished by our young master. .”

"What? Your young master's family is very famous here?"

Zhou Xun saw a bamboo sign on the table, picked it up and saw the names of many dishes written on it.

Seeing him, Xiao Er picked up the sign and explained.

"This is called a menu, and it's also made by our young master. Write the names of the dishes in a list, let the guest officer order the dishes, and account according to the table number."

Zhou Xun casually ordered a few side dishes, a bowl of beef noodles.

"Okay, a big bowl of beef noodles, the signature dish stewed black-bone chicken with yam, braised fish, and stir-fried vegetables. Guest officer, please sit down for a while, and the villain will come back when he goes."

Zhou Xun looked at the private room curiously.

There are screens on the left and right, with paintings of mountain birds, insects and fish, which seem to be made of glass.

There is a window in front, and through it, one can vaguely see the boat in the distance, and the people and things on the boat have become a scene.

There is a bonsai as tall as a person behind him. Inside are rockery and asparagus bamboo, which are lush and pleasing to the eye.

Not long after, Xiaoer came back and brought back a copy of the brand.

"This is your order receipt, please keep it."

The cold one was a piece of glass, shaped like a maple leaf, with "Seventeen" engraved on it.

"Xiao Er, you guys are so outrageous that you are willing to use glass as a sign?"

Xiao Er said proudly:

"You don't know that! We have no shortage of glass here!"

"Shaodong's family is said to have been taught by a different person, who taught him the art of firing glass, which can produce pure glass, which is more transparent than the glass from the Western Regions."

"The Shaodong family took out this glass art, and shared it with the Jia family and the Zhen family, and enjoyed a 10,000% bonus every year. That is a monthly income of [-]+!"

Zhou Xun thought about the "foreigner" when he heard it.

"Does your young master have a reputation?"

"Of course, my young master's family just won the Juren last year."

"People call the prodigal son turning back Xue Pan, but they are talking about my family's young master!"
