Chapter 9: Exam (below)

　　 Ace became a student of the teacher's mouth again, some of them looked at him admiringly, while others were a little unhappy.
　　 Ace understands it very well. What admires is trying to work hard, but what is unhappy is forced to learn. If you divide it carefully, you will find that the children who are upset are the children of noble families.
　　 They are the blood of gods. Although I don't know how many generations, the blood of the gods can be smoothly stimulated, but they are indeed the blood of gods, natural nobles, without pressure, and naturally lacking motivation.
　　 If it is replaced by a blood-stimulating test, they will all admire and envy them. The position of the often determines the view of things.
　　 Although some aristocratic children are a little upset, they still have basic tutoring, and there are no boring tricks like blocking the door and beating after class.
　　 Three days passed quickly, and Ace and his mother Marina went to the Municipal Square. The results list has just been posted on the bulletin board, with a 100-point scale, with over 90 points being excellent and over seventy-five being qualified.
　　 Ace looked at the first name from Dana from the top down, with 100 points, and continued to look, and found that the second place was his name and receipt number, 98 points.
　　 Ace took the receipt for registration and payment, and received a badge from a public official in culture and education. The white bottom, the embossment of Medemous City, the red word "Excellent", and the upper line of small letters says that the text is qualified.
　　 Marina happily pinned the badge on Ace's clothes, and hurried home to Annunciate Romon.
　　 Ace walked quickly to the house of Peter the polymath. He finally passed the exam and was qualified to learn more in-depth knowledge and was also eligible to borrow the private collection of Peter the polymath.
　　 Ace arrived at Peter's villa of the polymath. Among the other seven students, three of them had already started copying the "Mythology", and the others were still memorizing the grammatical structure.
　　 Morton was holding a book, leaning on the courtyard wall, watching with relish, glancing at the students from time to time.
　　I raised my eyes and saw Ace coming in and was muttering in his heart that after all, the young man had to be educated for examinations and he had to enlighten Ace, after all, he was an eager seedling.
　　 was thinking, Morton suddenly saw Ace's chest glowing with metal in the sun, it turned out to be a badge!
Morton rushed to Ace in three steps and two steps, and took a close look at the badge on his chest. The white bottom, the relief of Medemous City, the red "Excellent", and the small words on it read The text level is qualified.
　　 "You passed it once, and you also got the'excellent'?"
　　 Morton asked silently.
　　 "Thanks to your teaching, sir, I passed the exam by luck."
　　 Ace replied shyly, her eyes cunning.
　　 "You are indeed a student. The teacher is now going out to attend the civic assembly. It is estimated that he will be back in the afternoon. Then I will take you to see him. You can call me Morton senior directly in the future."
　　 Morton's expression was a little joyful and a little disappointed. He turned around and looked at other students, especially those crooked melons who couldn't learn grammar. He felt that people were incomparable.
In the afternoon, Morton took Ace to the east-facing study on the third floor of the villa, and told Ace, "The teacher is a person who values ​​politeness, and he must be respectful and polite after entering." Then he knocked on the door lightly and took Ai. Si backed two steps together and waited respectfully.
　　 After a while, the door opened. Peter was dressed in a white robe and red ribbon. He looked solemn and seemed to be thinking about something. He carried several different badges on his chest, one of which was the same as the military medal for the decapitation of ten people collected by Romon.
　　 It seems that Peter is not only knowledgeable, but also very capable of actual combat, which is also in line with the overall atmosphere of the city, open, martial, and full of expansion.
Several people entered the study one by one. Morton took Ace and bowed slightly to Peter and said, "Teacher, this is Ace who studied last month. He is a hardworking and smart boy. Without any foundation, In just over a month, he learned to pass the written proficiency test. He hopes to follow the teacher to learn more advanced and professional knowledge."
　　 "Teacher Peter, I really want to follow you to learn more advanced and professional knowledge." Ace said immediately after Morton finished speaking.
"Ace, the door of knowledge is open for everyone who yearns for it. You are welcome to be my disciple. Knowledge is valuable. After you become my disciple, you will have to pay fifty silver talers a month for tuition. My servant Joan, if you don’t have money for the time being, you can also charge it on credit, and you will pay me back slowly after you work, without interest."
Peter smiled, and then said, "I have a lot of different knowledge here. You can borrow books from the library in the next year, listen to my open class every Friday in the front yard, and choose a subject you love. Xiu. Now you go to Qiao Ann, Morton stays."
　　 "Okay, Teacher Peter." Ace and Morton said in unison.
　　 Then Ace found Joan, he was the attendant at the door when he first came to the villa.
"You have paid ninety silver talers, and you have been studying for almost one and a half months. Even if you have forty silver talers, the remaining amount is just enough for the student's one month's tuition. If you plan to earn interest-free credit, you can use this book Register and register." Qiao An said politely and methodically.
　　 "Thank you, Uncle Qiao'an. I will go home tonight to discuss with my parents, and then decide how to pay the remaining tuition." Ace replied politely.
　　 "Okay, you take this small kraft paper card, sign your name on the back, and you can go to the library to borrow books for the rest," Qiao An said.
　　 Ace took the card. On the front is Peter's loan certificate written in a beautiful bird body. He signed his name on the back and went to the library.
　　 Today, the duty administrator of the library is a blond middle-aged man. He looked at Ace’s card and said enthusiastically:
"The schoolboy is really young and promising. I was born in the northern city-state of Milne and my name is Carter. I was attracted by Medemus’s openness and came here when I was twenty. In the north, it is impossible for free citizens to obtain citizenship. Similarly, as long as you work hard, you have the hope of becoming a citizen. I am now a year away from a low-level public office to become a citizen. I love this city-state."
　　 "Congratulations, senior Carter. We have a common goal, and I will ask you more in the future." Ace said politely, concealed the identity of the same freedman, and narrowed the distance.
　　 "No problem, please feel free to ask me what you want. I work as a clerk in the city-state jury. You can go there to find me every Monday to Thursday." Carter waved his hand cheerfully.
　　 Ace thanked Carter, walked gently into the library, and scanned the books in the library.
　　 In the evening, return to the eighth block. Mother Marina has prepared a sumptuous dinner for their family. Half a leg of lamb is grilled on the outside and tender on the inside, exuding an attractive aroma, a pot of lettuce soup, soft and delicious white bread and cheese.
　　 I have to say that many foods in this world are similar to those in previous lives, but the dishes are too monotonous.
　　 Romon took out some muddy ale and was drinking happily.
　　 He already knows that his son has passed the literacy test. In his opinion, the road to citizenship is clear. UU reading www.uukanshu. com
"Ace, I see you have passed the exam. Why don't you start working hard tomorrow. When you join the army as an adult, cut off the heads of ten barbarians, and come back to pick up my class for three years, you can become a qualified citizen." "
"Father, I'm about to discuss with you. I hope to continue to learn from Teacher Peter. Knowledge is very important. Even if you become a citizen, if you want to make a big progress and hold a senior public office, you must have more professional and in-depth knowledge. Don't worry about tuition. , Teacher Peter can take it on credit and return it slowly when I take up a public office."
Luo Meng was a little silent. He knew that his son was right and had no knowledge. Even if he became a citizen, he only had the right to vote. Many specific public positions were restricted to pass professional level examinations, and higher public positions were required to hold relevant lower-level public positions for two years. .
Take the grand judge as an example. You need noble or citizenship and have served as a judge for two years, while a judge needs noble or citizenship and have served as an assistant judge for two years. An assistant judge needs noble or citizenship and has served as a clerk for two years. , Clerks need to pass the legal professional qualification examination.
　　 Of course, a high-level public office like the Grand Inquisitor still needs a 500-member meeting to elect a proposal, and the king agrees and appoints it.
"When you grow up, you have your own opinion. I usually neglect to care for you, and I only support you in this matter. Don't worry about the money, I sold the full body armor, and now our family is rich, let your mother Then, if you need to pay tuition, you can ask her directly."
　　 Ace did not expect Romon to have such a family role. He said excitedly, "When I fight for citizenship and earn money in the future, I must buy a full body armor for our family and move back to the first block."
　　 "Come on, to a better tomorrow for our family, cheers!"
　　 "Go!"
　　 "Go!"
