Chapter 677: Can you take the exam like this? (Three shifts)

Wang Sanlang, once used the name Wang Jinbao.
Because this name is too popular, he changed to Wang Xuecheng after studying.
Following Wang Xiaoxi, Wang Xuecheng walked out of the county for the first time, came to the capital for the first time, and came to Xinmin County, the most developed commerce and trade county.
In an instant, he was attracted by this place.
The streets are full of people, men, women and children.
There is a light of hope on everyone's face.
He was so dizzy that he didn't have enough eyes.
Wang Xiaoxi patted him on the shoulder, "I'll get used to staying a few more days. I'll take you to settle first."
Leaving the market, Wang Xiaoxi took Wang Xuecheng to the second phase of the project.
Thousands of houses, neatly arranged, shocked everyone who saw them for the first time.
"Guardian Wang's house is here? It's amazing."
"What's this?" Wang Xiaoxi said with a smile, "The chief steward of our coal plant bought a house in the third phase in just a few years. That house is just a magnificent house with a large garden. The biggest wish of my life, It is to buy a three-phase house.
The house I live in is okay to live in, but everything else is very ordinary. My family is crowded and noisy. If you want to study, it is not appropriate to live in my house. But I have found a single room for you, right across from my house. Quiet and not expensive. The most important thing is to rent short-term. When you are admitted to the college, you can just withdraw the house. "
"Thank you Wang Guanshi!"
"You're welcome. We have a last name, we should help each other."
While walking, Wang Xiaoxi introduced the surrounding situation to Wang Xuecheng.
The single room he found for Wang Xuecheng is on the second floor. It is indeed quiet and inexpensive. The landlord is very talkative.
Those who live next door are also scholars, and scholars who come to Beijing from other places also plan to test Sanhe College.
Wang Xuecheng liked this place as soon as he went to the second floor.
I simply signed a three-party lease with the landlord, paid a month’s rent, and then moved in.
Wang Xiaoxi said to him: "I will take you out after dinner. There have been a lot of recruits recently. It should be easy to find work."
Wang Xuecheng thanked him again and again.
Wang Xiaoxi laughed and patted him on the shoulder and said, "There are many scholars living in this building. Get close to you and ask about the exam. After all, I am a layman, and I don't know much about studying."
Wang Xuecheng nodded heavily.
Wang Xiaoxi urged the landlord to pay more attention to Wang Xuecheng. The locals in Gyeonggi, by all accounts, are all from the capital.
People from Beijing should take care of them.
The landlord readily agreed and personally introduced Wang Xuecheng to several other scholars.
They are all students from other places who come to Beijing. Knowing that Wang Xuecheng was only a child, suddenly lost interest. Even a straight eye is too lazy to give alms.
Tong Sheng, in the eyes of scholars, is no different from the illiterate. It's not worth their thoughts.
There was only one person, Xiucai Gong named Yanci, who was kind to Wang Xuecheng.
"I just heard from the landlord that you are also coming to Khaosan River College?"
Wang Xuecheng nodded, "Is the college easy to take the exam?"
Yan Ci shook his head, "It's not easy to take the test."
Wang Xuecheng suddenly became nervous.
Yan Ci continued: "Since I entered Beijing in July last year, I have passed the exam four times, and I have all failed in the comprehensive paper."
Wang Xuecheng looked dazed, "What is a comprehensive paper?"
Yan Ci stared at him, looking up and down, "You don't even know anything in the examination of Shanhe Academy, right?"
Wang Xuecheng nodded embarrassedly, "Don’t hide the truth from Brother Yan, I just learned about Shanhe Academy a few days ago. I heard that as long as you enter the exam, you will be free of all expenses and four sets of clothes a year. Monthly exams. Take, take..."
"scholarship!"
"Yes, it's a scholarship."
Yan Ci laughed and saw in Wang Xuecheng his embarrassment when he first entered Beijing. At the beginning, he made a lot of jokes and was jokingly called a dumpling.
"Some Bucai, like Brother Wang, came for the scholarship of Shanhe Academy," said Yan Ci solemnly.
"Brother Wang, what is the monthly exam scholarship of Shanhe College? What is the quarterly exam scholarship? What is the final exam scholarship?"
Wang Xuecheng shook his head honestly, how did he know.
He is now a soil bun, bewildered all the time.
Yan Ci said: "By age group, the first scholarship in the monthly examination is thirty taels of silver, and the second and third are twenty taels. I heard that this year a new system will be introduced, and the fourth to tenth scholarship will also be rewarded by the quarter. The first place for the scholarship test is fifty taels of silver, and the second and three are awarded thirty taels of silver. The scholarship for the final exam is the highest, and the first one can get 100 taels of silver.
"So much?" Wang Xuecheng was shocked.
Yan Ci shook his head, "This is more than that. There is another kind of scholarship, which is a full scholarship, which requires excellence in each category. The specific evaluation method is not yet clear. The full scholarship amounts to 1,000 taels a year."
Wang Xuecheng was so shocked that he could not speak at the thousand taels that Yan Ci said.
Yan Ci went on to say: "The number of full scholarships is very high, so it is naturally very difficult to get. As far as I know, only two people have received full scholarships since the opening of Shanhe College. One of them was cancelled the next year. The scholarship is said to be a decline in study and does not meet the requirements."
Wang Xuecheng was secretly speechless and licked his dry lips.
He whispered: "I don't dare to expect a full scholarship. I'm already satisfied with the monthly scholarship."
"Hahaha... I have the same idea as Brother Wang. I don’t want a full scholarship, but only a monthly scholarship. However, I have failed the exam four times. But this time, I’m sure I will be able to Accepted."
At the end, Yanci was very serious.
Wang Xuecheng asked cautiously: "Brother Yan is already a scholar, do you still need a monthly scholarship to survive?"
Yan Ci slowly shook his head, "Does Brother Wang think that anyone who can be admitted as a talent has a wealth of wealth in his family?"
Wang Xuecheng closed his mouth for fear of making jokes.
"Brother Wang thinks things too simple. Scholars are worthy of nothing. If they can be admitted to Juren, then they can accumulate tens of thousands of family wealth. Brother Wang must bear in mind that Xiu is only a starting point, and Jinshi is my goal. , You must also be admitted to Juren. Only if you are admitted to Juren can you achieve something."
Wang Xuecheng suddenly felt the pressure was great, and compared with Yan Ci, he really didn't want to make progress. At present, his goal is only to get talents and give his family an explanation.
He asked cautiously: "Why did Brother Yan choose Shanhe Academy? The mountains are high and the road is far away, and I have to go back to my hometown when I go to my hometown for the exam. Is it just for the monthly scholarship?
Yanci hesitated for a while, got up and closed the doors and windows, "Shanhe Academy has only been in operation for a few years, and its reputation is not obvious, but it has attracted so many scholars. Why do you?"
Wang Xuecheng shook his head honestly, he didn't know anything.
Strictly lowered his voice and said in a low voice: "It is not only because Shanhe Academy is rich, but more importantly, the owner of Shanhe Academy is Mrs. Zhao. Have you heard of Mrs. Zhao, the owner of Sihai Commercial Bank, the wife of His Royal Highness.
We are not qualified to enter the Imperial College. Shanhe Academy has no restriction on identity, as long as the exam is passed, everyone can enter, which gives everyone a chance to meet the powerful. Studying in your hometown, there is no chance to meet the dignitaries, don't you think? "
Wang Xuecheng's mouth was dry, "Will the nobles really come to the academy?"
Yan Ci said affirmatively: "Yes! Of course it will! There is a road from the mountain behind the academy to another mountain. Do you know who lives on that mountain?
All the people living in the capital are rich and powerful. This is the shortcut to the sky! Let me tell you one more thing. Many of the students who came here to study have been accepted as clean guests by the nobles, and they jumped straight into the dragon gate. "
Wang Xuecheng let out a cry, obviously stimulated.
Yan Ci looked envied, "It's a pity that I didn't have such a chance. But we still have an imperial examination. The reputation of Shanhe Academy is not obvious. That's because very few people get admitted to Shanhe Academy. After all, it has only been in operation for a few years.
But as far as I know, there are quite a lot of scholars and juren. Most of these people have mediocre qualifications. They have only been in the academy for two years, and they have learned something. There are especially many scholars in the college.
Therefore, this year, there are quite a few people who come here for the fame of scholars like Brother Wang. Brother Wang, you have to prepare well and be careful of being brushed down. "
Wang Xuecheng suddenly became nervous, "Brother Yan, please teach me."
Yanci solemnly said: "First of all, you have to buy an exam sprint problem set, and learn how to do it every day."
"What is the question?"
"Just answer the test paper."
Yan Ci simply turned out the set of exercises he bought, "You see, the above questions are all tested over the years. First, the multiple-choice questions, then fill in the blanks, understand the questions, and finally two essays.
This book is for the number of operas. Buy one and do it every day. Basically, the number of operas is not a big problem. The most difficult thing is the comprehensive paper, which will involve all examination questions. Hey, I lost to the comprehensive volume several times, so I was so angry! This time I have to be admitted anyway. "
Wang Xuecheng looked at the collection of exercises and deeply suspected that all he had read in the past were fake books.
"So you can take the exam like this?"
