Vol 2 Chapter 802: Xiao Jiu is nervous

Regional disputes, academies disputes, and talent disputes make this early winter capital look particularly lively.
When the fighting was in full swing, the imperial court, which had been silent for a long time, finally moved.
From offering wine to teaching, even the small officials and Sasao were not spared, and they were all replaced from beginning to end.
The imperial court transferred personnel from various yamen to form a new Imperial College.
The newly-appointed Guozijian Jijiu, unexpectedly, turned out to be a clan.
In terms of seniority, he is the cousin of Emperor Wen De, who is less than sixty years old, and if he has no physical problems, he can work for at least ten years.
Gu Jiu called the uncle his cousin when he offered wine to the newly appointed Imperial Prison.
She was very curious, and while Liu Zhao was there, she asked him, "Do you know how the new prisoner of the state offers wine, what route?"
Liu Zhao said: "He was the king of Jin, and he was eager to learn since he was a child. He also secretly participated in the imperial examination under a pseudonym, and was a serious Second-Class Jinshi."
Gu Jiu was speechless.
The descendants of King Jin were born rich. He could still study quietly, even participate in the imperial examination under the pseudonym, and get the second-class Jinshi, which is definitely the top level in the clan.
Few people from the clan family can calm down and study martial arts.
You have to endure hardships in studying and martial arts. The members of the clan are used to the worry-free days of life, where they are still suffering.
Let Liu Zhao go to the imperial examination, he will definitely fail.
Gu Jiu teased him, "If you are on the court, can you be admitted to the Jinshi?"
Liu Zhao actually thought about it seriously, "Suddenly go to take the exam, I will definitely fail. Give me two years to concentrate on studying, it should be no problem."
Gu Jiu pursed her lips and smiled, "I really want to see how you look at the imperial examination."
Liu Zhao said simply, "I will go to Shanhe Academy for a few days, and you will know what my imperial examination looks like."
Gu Jiu gave him a bite, the two laughed for a while, and finally Gu Jiu begged for mercy.
She said: "This new imperial prisoner is definitely not bad at sacrificing wine. Your Majesty deliberately promotes the clan, and he must not find a half bucket of water to be embarrassing."
Liu Zhao also said:
Managing the Imperial College is not a big problem for the cousin. The difficult thing is how to guarantee the imperial examination results next year. If the Imperial Examinations fail next year, the scene will be ugly. How many Shanhe Academy has set. aims?"
Gu Jiu opened his mouth and said: "Thirty Jinshi, the lowest goal given to me by the academy. With Yang Ji's knowledge, I have the opportunity to make a top pick. Whether he can be selected as the champion depends on his luck and on-the-spot performance."
Liu Zhao smiled and said: "Yang Ji is already the Xie Yuan, if he can be named Hui Yuan, champion, Shanhe Academy will have another San Yuan Gong."
Gu Jiu shook his head repeatedly, "Impossible! San Yuan Gong is not so cheap. There are two San Yuan Gong in one time, and the difference is only a few decades. This will give people a feeling that San Yuan Gong is worthless. Your Majesty will never To do this kind of thing. He no longer understands Mr. Yang, and does not want the title of Sanyuan Gong to drop in price. This will become the laughing stock of future generations, making future generations think that the current dynasty is shallow and deceive.
Liu Zhao took her hand: "So you have already thought so much."
Gu Jiu rubbed his eyebrows, "I don't want to do it. The college set the goal of 30 scholars. I felt a little guilty in my heart. I was worried that they would set the goal higher and be beaten in the face. So I deliberately gave the password. It’s not allowed to talk about the 30 Jinshi goals. As many as you can test, it doesn’t matter if you only get Yang Ji."
"If only Yang Ji is admitted as a Jinshi, the student base of Shanhe Academy next year will drop significantly."
Gu Jiu raised his eyebrows and smiled, "However, in this year’s rural examination, the Shanhe Academy’s record is brilliant. The results so far show that more than 700 people have participated in the rural examination, and a total of 87 Juren have been admitted. There is an increase."
Seeing Gu Jiu's smile, Liu Zhao also laughed.
He hugged her, "Good!"
"Where is it good?"
"It's good everywhere! Shanhe Academy is thriving, and it can attract talented students like Yang Ji. You have made great contributions. Next year, the imperial examination year will surely yield big results."
Gu Jiu smiled and said: "Let you auspicious words. The imperial examination is still in a few months, and sometimes I feel nervous. I didn't feel that way the first two times."
"That's because the influence of Shanhe Academy has become wider and wider, and it has received more and more attention. You are afraid of mistakes in the Academy, afraid that the students will fail the exam, and the reputation of the Academy, so you will be nervous."
Liu Zhao's analysis was so good that Gu Jiu couldn't refute it.
She nodded his head, "You are right. So when I'm nervous, don't mess with me."
Liu Zhao was wronged, this is definitely wrong.
He said plausibly: "Even if you are not nervous, I have not annoyed you."
"Humph!"
Shanhe Academy quarreled with Guozijian for several years, and next year's imperial examination year is the time to see the true chapter.
Regardless of how badly you said before, the college students failed to pass the Jinshi exam, all of them were false.
Or the number of people admitted to Jinshi is too small to be worthy of the reputation of the academy, so the reputation is empty.
Students all over the world need to see tangible results.
The teaching in the academy also needs tangible results to prove one's teaching ability.
Only with tangible results, Shanhe Academy is qualified to compete with the Imperial College.
Only the Imperial College is qualified to be an opponent in the world academy.
This is very frustrating, but domineering and cool enough.
The students of Shanhe Academy are young and energetic, and they are all a group of literary youths who are not afraid of big things, and are not afraid of being caught.
They are more willing to attack others.
Shanhe Academy has to show tangible results so that the students have the confidence to beat others.
As the founder of the Academy, Gu Jiu was under great pressure.
She had to exercise restraint and could not put her pressure on the teachers and students of the college. She is afraid of affecting everyone's performance.
Ever since, Gu Jiu shifted his attention to the "Small Iron Workshop".
...
In the western suburbs of the capital, about 30 miles away from the city gate, there is a col, surrounded by mountains and water.
In the past, this mountain col was very barren, with rocks everywhere. The local people rarely set foot here.
Today, this place has been transformed by manpower, and a huge flat land has been leveled out.
On the flat ground, rows of concrete houses were built and tall chimneys were built.
The road leading to the outside is paved with a concrete pavement that can pass four carriages side by side.
A watchtower was built on the top of the mountain, which is condescending, and the surrounding environment is unobstructed.
This is the small iron workshop that Gu Jiu said.
The originally deserted small workshop, one day, suddenly many more people.
Ten of them looked at the surrounding environment with fear and anxiety.
Bai Zhong led the ten people to the accommodation area first.
"One person, one room. After you settle down, if you don’t dislike the poor conditions here and you want to take your family in, you can. The house will be reallocated at that time. The meal will be downstairs and the cook will be specially invited to cook. Three meals a day with meat. Besides, each of you has a basic salary of 50 taels a month."
boom!
The ten-person team burst instantly.
"Can you eat meat every day?"
"Can we really get paid?"
"Is there really five taels of silver a month?"
"It's not a lie."
These rough men, one by one, looked too old.
In fact, the oldest is less than fifty, and the youngest is only twenty-eight.
In the past, as blacksmith slaves who were to be prisoners, they had no wages to receive, let alone eating meat every day. It’s good to be full.
Bai Zhong gave a light cough and motioned everyone to quiet down and listen to him finish his words.
He said loudly: "I don't know what days you have lived, but when you arrive at the Four Seas Commercial Bank, you, as craftsmen, deserve to be treated as craftsmen. In addition, in addition to the basic salary, there is a bonus. The bonus is based on the degree of completion of the task. , How to calculate the bonus, there will be a form, then I will explain to you one by one.
In addition, everyone must bring an apprentice. Bring out an apprentice and get a bonus of thirty taels. After the apprentice is out of the teacher, you will get a dividend for every finished product you make as a master. Now, I set up the first task, refining refined iron, refining steel! "
boom!
The crowd burst again.
These blacksmiths talked a lot.
It is possible to refine refined iron, and refined steel can only be thought of.
How to refine if the temperature is not reached?
Isn't this a nonsense?
Bai Zhong said blankly: "You just do it. Money is not a problem. Give it as much as you want. If you have any problems, don't get bored. If you ask them, they will do their best to help you solve them as long as they are reasonable requests. It means to make every effort to extract refined iron and make refined steel. As long as the task can be completed, each person will receive a reward of 100 taels. If someone has made outstanding contributions, there will be additional rewards."
Under the great reward, there must be a brave man. I don't believe that this group of technical talents can't extract refined iron and steel.
boom!
The ten-man team burst again.
"Is there really a hundred taels for completing the task?"
"How much do you need, how much do you give, really?"
"Can you ask any questions?"
"It's not to coax us."
Bai Zhong yelled, "After things are done, not only are there silver rewards. As long as you want, you can also eliminate slavery for you, buy a house in Xinmin County, and be a good citizen. Your wife and children, brothers, if you like, you can also come. Work here.
However, you have to remember that if the owner spends so much money to support you, you must be loyal. Everything you see, hear, and experience here is kept secret. If anyone said that he missed his mouth and revealed the wind, I am embarrassed, where to roll back. "
