Fu Xue is an official school, and according to current regulations, the professor who holds the position must be from a juren family background.
This is a hard requirement and indispensable.
Familiar?
Well, in the words of later generations of job seekers, the title of a successful candidate is just a stepping stone and a diploma, a threshold.
Yes, if you have talent but no qualifications, don’t come in!
Is it reasonable?
Very reasonable, very reasonable.
You think, even the students have the reputation of being scholars, as a teacher, shouldn’t they be one level higher?
Is it possible that you ask scholars to teach scholars?
Haha, it’s useless, it only increases laughter!
Therefore, the teachings of Fu Xue must be Juren, that is, deputy list Juren and above.
Qi Yu is from Yakui, a candidate for official examination. In terms of qualifications, he not only meets the standards, but is more than adequate.
Therefore, Yu Hai’s appointment is completely in line with the law.
So, Master Yu, does he have this right?
The answer is: yes!
According to the system of this dynasty, the local officials have absolute rights in the appointment, removal and use of "officials" in the jurisdiction, and there is no need to report or ask for instructions from the superior Yamen.
Edicts are also a type of official, so Yu Hai has absolute autonomy in making appointments, and he also has the final say in terms of monthly payments.
Overall it works.
For Qi Yu, this job can be called a timely help, and it comes at the right time, just like Song Jiang's nickname - Timely Rain.
It's time.
At the moment, the avenue for painting has been blocked, and I don’t know how to do business, so I need to find an urgent source of income. If I can find a stable income, I can avoid sitting on my hands, which is a long-term solution.
From this point of view, this job is very good.
However, it also brings up two problems.
Let’s talk about the first one first. I haven’t stopped taking the imperial examination yet, and I plan to continue taking the imperial examination. If I am immersed in the great cause of education for a long time, wouldn’t I be wasting my studies?
In addition, there is another question, what can I teach?
What a shame! If you teach these things, how can you keep up with those old masters who have been practicing for many years?
With these two worries, Qi Yu became worried about gains and losses.
It has to be said that Yu Hai is a very observant person. When he saw Qi Yu's hesitation, he guessed what he was thinking after a little thought and said it accurately.
Qi Yu was startled: Are you a roundworm? How did you guess so accurately?
Lord Yu smiled and took a leisurely sip of tea, looking like he had already understood everything.
Qi Yu hurriedly said respectfully: "The person who knows me is Mr. Yu."
"Shaocheng is joking, you don't have to worry at all. In fact, I have already arranged everything properly and you will definitely be satisfied." Yu Hai laughed and said.
arranged?
It’s so touching!
Mr. Yu is a good man!
…
"What? You don't believe it?"
"Believe it! Your Majesty always spends a lot of money when talking, how could you deceive me?" Qi Yu hurriedly cupped his hands, showing a confident look.
Yu Hai then nodded and said with a smile: "Well, don't worry, that teaching position will definitely not delay your studies. I have also figured out what lessons to teach for you."
"Haha... It's really touching that you are so considerate! But I don't know how exactly you arranged it?"
"Haha, I checked your past files before and found that you are quite proficient in arithmetic. In that case, why not teach arithmetic?"
Well...that's absolutely true!
Very accurate!
Current arithmetic is the category of ‘numerology’ in the Six Arts, and it is an elective course in government schools. Generally speaking, there are only five or six courses a month, making it very easy to teach.
If that's the case, you'll have a lot of free time.
In this way, you can not only earn a monthly allowance, but also have enough time to study. Yes, you can study and make money at the same time!
How wonderful!
The only remaining issue is salary.
Scholars are very particular about loving the scent of ink and despising the smell of copper. How should you say this?
Ahem!
Qi Yu didn't have the nerve to say it out loud, but made a subtle gesture of counting the coins, with an expression on his face that said, "It's up to you."
Um?
Master Yu suddenly understood, and then said generously: "Don't worry, I will never treat you badly."
Qi Yu continued: "Then, how can you not treat me unfairly?"
"Ahem! According to common sense, the monthly salary for teaching the six arts is not too much, which is only one-third of the regular teaching. However, I have already said hello to the manager of the household, your
The income will never be less than what is taught in the main course."
Oh, I understand.
The treatment is good!
So, Qi Yu hurriedly thanked me: "Thank you, Mr. Yu, for understanding the suffering of my poor family and treating me as appropriate!"
Um?
The corner of Yu Hai's mouth twitched: A poor family? Is there a poor family like you who lives in a big house?
…
After saying goodbye to Mr. Yu, Qi Yu walked towards the market.
Today is a happy event, how can we not celebrate it?
how to celebrate?
A big meal of course!
So I bought a lot of big fish, meat, and all kinds of seasonal vegetables.
By the way, I also bought some so-called pheasant eggs, which were prepared for my son Qi Xiao. Now that the little guy has long teeth, he can already eat some steamed eggs.
After returning home, Qi Dalang cooked and prepared dinner himself.
Soon, the food and rice were ready.
As soon as the dishes and chopsticks were put on the table, Ms. Zhou started talking and talked endlessly about what she had seen and heard today.
Yes, she ran to watch the excitement of the entrance banquet.
The road was crowded with people and it was quite a scene.
In excitement, she said to everyone she met: "Did you see that the young man with the most handsome appearance and the most learned talent is my son Qi'a?"
…
After his mother finished telling her everything, Qi Yu said, "Mom, now that I have become a human being, I have to pay attention to my image. When you are outside, can you stop calling me Ah Ma?"
Yes, Aman is now the master of civil engineering, and it is really inappropriate to call him by his nickname anymore.
"Okay, Ah Man, I will pay attention." Zhou nodded suddenly and said, "Then I'll call you Da Lang instead."
"Da Lang...this is...ok."
Mrs. Zhou looked at the dishes on the table and asked curiously: "It's not the right time to cook, why are you cooking so many dishes?"
Qi Yu smiled and said: "Although there is no festival today, something happy has happened."
Zhou asked curiously: "What happy event?"
"I have become the tutor of the government school!"
"..."
Then, Qi Yu explained Master Yu's arrangements and emphasized that this job would not delay his studies.
"ah!"
Both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were shocked.
This is really a great thing!
The professor of government education is not a teacher in a private school. It is a noble and respected profession.
According to later generations, he is comparable to a senior professor in a university.
Indeed, teachers are a glorious and sacred profession, which is true in ancient and modern times, except of course, "calling the beast".
Xiaotong thought for a while and asked curiously: "Dad, if the scholars in the government school are disobedient, will Mr. Jiaoyu hit their palms with a ruler?"
Qi Yu was amused and said: "Scholarships all rely on self-consciousness in their studies, and they will not be beaten."
Although Xiao Qixiao didn't understand the meaning of the words, he still parroted the words: "Hit...hit..."
The family burst into laughter, and they were all amused.
