"Wei Mao has to take exams after the winter vacation, and we have to take exams when we come back from winter vacation. Can we still have a good holiday? We can still be friends without taking exams!"
"There's no way, the school teachers don't want this. Who likes to think about exam questions during the Chinese New Year." Ding"dian" Xiao" said, but this is a fatal order personally issued by Lord Zhou Mu, even if It’s an order that Principal Hu has no authority to change.”
"Why do Lord Zhou Mu have to dwell on this exam? It's so sour that it makes you want to fly."
"Who knows? Maybe Mr. Zhou Mu had a similar experience, so he remembered it so deeply."
"You're cheating me!" x2.
"Speaking of it, the recruitment advertisements for caravans and powerful people outside have become more and more strange recently. 'Join the pioneering caravan and you can get the teachings of the strong'. This is considered normal, but why do the so-called 'strong' look at it? Why are my visions so 'bright'? 'I can build palaces filled with all kinds of beautiful girls but cannot name them in the entire human society'. Why does it sound like there is a possibility of becoming a certain senior sister? Or simply end up like the Overlord of Western Chu. "Master the unexplained survival skills of lending a small amount of money and getting back huge interest, and if you don't pay back, you will have a cement pillar poured into it." Even if you say this, I know it is It’s a violation of the decree that Lord Shumu is about to promulgate! It’s even weirder to have the opportunity to obtain a special medicine that is extremely popular among women and can plump up the unspeakable parts below the neck! You will definitely be regarded as a strange gentleman!”
"So you're not going to sign up? It's really fun, oh no, it's gratifying, but it's not right..."
"Actually, you want to say that as long as I don't sign up, you will have one less competitor. That's right!"
"Xiaolin, listen to my explanation. You must listen to my explanation."
"I don't listen, I don't listen, I don't listen...!!!"
"If you continue to be so careful, I will go to Mr. Yan right now and tell him that you haven't touched a word of the homework he assigned, so if you handed it in, you must have copied it from someone. The most likely possibility is that My homework."

For ordinary people, after the Winter Festival, it means that the work of this year has entered a pause stage. Although now more and more citizens in Bingzhou and rural residents in the suburbs have become accustomed to taking on some work in winter. Earn extra money to support the family, or make more preparations for the busy new year after the Spring Festival. However, after more than a thousand years, the inherent thinking is not so easy to be broken. The winter after the Winter Festival is not that short for most people. The main tone is still a leisurely pace.
However, this point has completely opposite feelings for students studying at Bingzhou Government College.
This period is actually their busiest time, both mentally and physically.
Probably as the student from the official school said, because he had experienced too many similar tests in the history of another dimension, Li Shushi threw away these "hardenings" he had experienced in a bad way. After being assigned to Hu Zhao, the chief principal of the official school, to some extent, Li Shushi's actions tended to get worse.
For example, very formal examinations are required at the beginning and end of the two semesters every year, so the group of naughty kids who can't even have a good vacation secretly cursed Li Shushi who provided this idea so many times.
It's just that in this era, although learning has been basically popularized due to Li Shushi's efforts, the conditions are extremely harsh - after all, there are many places that need money under the rule, and they will not spend money to support idle people, let alone talents.
What kind of power does a person have? Not to mention Li Shushi, even the village elders and heads of various families would sneer at this kind of thing.
If you can't get good grades and can't go to school, that's the next best thing, but if you fail too many times and are expelled from school, even if rich people can get opportunities for continuing education through money, they will still be despised by the villagers, old and young, unless they
Have the ability to prove that you just lack talent in learning but have talents that ordinary people cannot reach in other places and achieve success.
But even so, in this social environment created by Liu Xiu, the founding emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Emperor Guangwu, there is also a belief similar to that in the future that "everything is inferior, only reading is good", even those who open up new territories.
Generals, successful businessmen who have purchased properties, or craftsmen who strive for perfection with fantastic ideas. They will also strive to improve their knowledge and taste on the way to success or after success, so as to integrate into the intellectual class that holds the right to speak in this society.
.
Therefore, Li Shushi's approach will not arouse opposition from scholars. Even some radicals are very happy with this elimination system. Even the poor people will be left with fine products after this elimination. Even the Eastern Han Dynasty
In the late 1980s, when clan politics began, people would still show great respect to true talents, especially those with high knowledge.
For example, Zheng Xuan, whose family was poor and his ancestors could only farm at home, or Jia Kui, whose family was also poor and almost had no clothes to wear in winter. Maybe some people will despise them because of their background, but for most people,
Most people and the public opinion of the entire society obviously regard them as one of the most respectable people in this society.
The former became a figure like Wenzong, and the latter's son became a powerful official in the Sima regime, which valued family background very much.
But whenever he thought of the legendary Jia Nanfeng, Li Shushi suddenly had the urge to secretly kill someone's son.
Therefore, no matter how much the naughty children protest, the examination system advocated by Li Shushi has never shown signs of being cancelled. On the contrary, after several years of practice, the scoring standards have been refined step by step, allowing teachers to better evaluate students.
The efforts and level of knowledge mastered have made a group of naughty children who are not very fond of learning and not smart enough complain even more.
Of course, according to the concepts of this era, the means of "persecution" of students by official schools is naturally not only the examination. For example, there are one or two ten-day holidays every summer and autumn according to local conditions. This is how in modern society
The so-called "farming holiday" has disappeared in cities for a long time. Every time this time comes, schools will organize students at all levels to go to the fields to help farmers complete this season's harvest work.
In the evening, senior students also organized some reading and literacy teaching activities for local people to let those people know that Li Shushi took the lead, Cheng Yu and others participated, Su Xiaoluoli, Hu Zhao, Sima Fang, Huang
Although Fu Song's edited works such as "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Surnames" and "Thousand Character Essay" cannot truly replace "Jijiupian" as an enlightenment study in this era, it can be regarded as a kind of enlightenment study.
Very good extension.
In the eyes of many students, the busy farming holidays are more like real holidays than winter and summer vacations, because the official schools will not organize various examinations before and after the holidays, and the old farmers in the fields are in awe of them and they are all scholars, unless they are
My own children, otherwise, not only are they respectful to students from other places, but they also do farm work.
They won't be allowed to participate too much - for some children from powerful families, it may not be a big deal to let them conduct research on the side. But if they really pick up farm tools and go to work in the fields, thank God if they don't do any harm.
It's better to stand aside and deliver water and meals to the old farmers, and then take the opportunity to read a book or something.
Li Shushi could only turn a blind eye to such a situation. Anyway, although he did not experience farm holidays when he was studying in modern society, he did go to the countryside to study farming. It can be said that such activities are not so much about going to the countryside and studying farming.
What to learn is rather to cultivate a spirit. Let a person know the hard work of farmers and the hard-earned food, and don’t waste it easily. And don’t make any decisions on a whim in the future governance process.
Then it made the local people angry and resentful, and made the people's hearts and minds change.
When you are in your senior year, not only can you take the school's recommendation letter to any county-level or county-level administrative unit under Li Shushi's rule during the holidays, and become a minor official under his management. It's just because of time.
Because of the relationship, usually students can only move around. Unless they are about to graduate and face employment pressure (is there any?)
Only prospective graduates can go further afield to find training opportunities, and this area is either a place known to their family members, or a place related to another activity of senior students——
In addition to studying the knowledge given by the teacher in his senior year, Li Shushi also added a whole year of practice time.
This kind of practical learning is actually quite similar to the popular study tours for young scholars in this era. These senior students will travel around the mountains and rivers under Li Shushi's rule in one year, and even be buried anonymously.
Whether it is a simple sightseeing trip to a hostile area, a real in-depth investigation and practice in a certain place, or other activities conducted by the government, there will be no restrictions. As long as the report submitted after one year can be given by the reviewer,
A higher rating means everything is ok.
In this regard, Li Shushi said that he has always been very open-minded.
Anyway, he was just giving pointers. In addition to strongly requesting more exams and preparing some questions that even he himself did not know the accurate answers to, the rest of the professional questions were thrown to Hu Zhao, the chief principal.
.
Anyway, Hu Zhao is not willing to become an official. Although strictly speaking, he, the principal, can be regarded as an orthodox bureaucrat. Whether he is the Minister of Education in modern society or a Doctor of the Five Classics in this era, he is a representative position in the official education system.
.
As long as you can devote your mind and body to the course, it will actually go by in a flash. However, people have different interests. In the senior year, a university-like course selection system will be adopted based on the students' wishes, but in the younger years, students are still forced to take it.
They are extensive
dabble, rather than specializing in one field from the beginning. After all, what Li Shushi lacks most is grassroots talents. As for high-end talents, he has already poached a group of talents from the east, west, north and south. In addition, those young talents and talents trained by powerful families have
Go-getters in their prime are still lining up
Waiting to be "lucky" by Li Shushi, not to mention that the low-level bureaucrats who were supported by the Zhen family and the Yan family in the past few years have gradually reached the point where they can take charge of their own affairs, even if a large number of these people are not capable enough to support them.
They move on, but even if
Only a small number can continue to be promoted, and enough places are needed to accommodate them. Not to mention that as Li Shushi's old subordinates who have contributed and worked hard in the early days of Li Shushi's career, the promotion of these people still needs to be given priority, even if they are actually unknown.
generation.
It seems a bit far-fetched. In short, unless they have reached the point of being shameless, otherwise in this season when the final exam is approaching. Even if they have just come out of the joy of the winter holiday, they have to try their best to concentrate on studying. Even if
It is cramming but also to cope with the final exam. After all, even for the children of a big family, this kind of final exam is not only related to their status in the family, but also related to whether they will get more support in the next year.
.
So exams are good. In a relatively fair environment, people with huge disparities in status can have a chance to decide the outcome. Even the Diaosi people have the opportunity to counterattack Gao Fushuai, or let Gao Fushuai reach the undisputed level.
A higher peak in life.
As long as you have enough confidence in your abilities, you will be very fascinated by the excitement gained from this kind of competition.
Although Li Bai is not one of the small group of people with the best performance in his grade, the gap between him and that group is not disappointing. It is possible to squeeze into that circle with an occasional outburst, but it will not last long.
's stay there.
Therefore, he still gets considerable respect in the school, and considering his family background, many people are still willing to interact with him.
After all, he is a descendant of Li Shi's family. Even though this family plays the role of background most of the time, as Li Shushi's status increases day by day, the status of this family will naturally rise.
Perhaps because Li Shushi has no direct blood relationship with this family, if he goes further in the future, he will only work hard to develop his direct bloodline. But after all, this family is still Li Shushi's background. As long as he doesn't commit suicide, he can always get certain benefits.
Special care, especially for those who are gradually withering away as the older generation of Li Shushi was forced into this family by Tong Yuan.
If strictly classified, Li Bai should belong to the third generation member of the Li family in Li Shi and Li Shushi. However, if the division is not so clear, then both he and his father can be regarded as the younger generation of the Li family in Li Shi.
.
I have said before that the older generation of members of this family are extremely resistant to Li Shushi, who has "sullied" the ancestral bloodline. If not for the existence of Tong Yuan, which is too special for this family, and at the same time, it is located in the frontier and has experienced Li Shushi's life.
Real name
The turmoil caused by the death of Yishang's grandfather, Li Yan, caused the family to lose its former glory when Li Shushi came to take charge of Xihe. In other words, even the decline of Xishan is considered a compliment to this family. It is estimated that a civil strife will begin.
It's inevitable.
But when you are poor, you want to change. For such a declining family that no longer minds the direct descendants of the family taking huge risks to go out to do business, but just to continue the family's existence, except for a few old stubborns, the rest of the family's descendants are not willing to accept a person who can bring great benefits to the family.
It seems that outsiders coming to Xingsheng are not completely unacceptable. Anyway, Li Shushi also has the surname Li, and maybe he was an ancestor five hundred years ago.
Therefore, from the younger generation of Li Gan and others to their nephews and nephews, who are now Li Bai's generation, they followed Li Shushi and reaped glory, revitalizing the already shaky family and possibly even becoming the current generation.
After Li Shushi came into contact with higher power and became independent from this family, he became a powerful family in the new era.
This is the common dream of all the younger generation of the Li family in Lishi who supports Li Shushi, naturally including Li Bai’s father, Li Ke, who is now a leader of Li Shushi’s personal guards. A man in his forties may retire at any time.
middle-aged uncle.
"Abai, you're finally back. Hurry up and lend me your class notes. I didn't understand what the old master taught today in class, and I didn't stop you after class. If you can't get it here again,
If it’s the answer, I’ll be in trouble.”
The person who asked Li Bai for help was his roommate Song Lin, who was also his best friend. He was the kind who didn't study seriously enough most of the time on weekdays and could only rely on cramming at the end of the semester or a few days before school started. But obviously Song Lin
I have a pretty good mind, just
Even so, he can still get a passable score, which is naturally inferior to someone like Li Bai, but he will definitely not appear on the list of members who need to be preached or severely punished. If there are no big problems, he will be a mess after graduation.
A minor official is also acceptable.
Of course, to be able to make friends with Li Bai, it is obvious that Song Lin does not only have such a little ability or cleverness.
In fact, as long as you see this guy's face, you will know his future development direction - a rough face, a powerful body, and his obsessive hobby of various physical exercises and martial arts exercises.
Even the old masters felt that this guy had obviously chosen the wrong place to study. In fact, even Song Lin himself thought so.
It's just that his parents, who are also his biological father, require him to at least graduate from the intermediate class of Bingshu Official School, and then they will consider whether to let him enter Qinglong Shrine for further study, or simply join the army and take the path of a military academy.
Song Lin had never thought about Qinglong Shrine or anything else, because when he was young, he lost his reputation due to qualification issues. Even if he learned more about playing, he did not think he had the ability to go further. Even if his father was a leader at home,
A successful wool merchant with a fortune, but he was doubtful about what he could learn at Qinglong Shrine.
On the contrary, he feels that the latter path is more feasible. However, if you want to take this path, you not only need to have an excellent body and enough merit, but also have more knowledge and it is said that you can get more bonus points. This
It also became an important reason why he worked hard to persist in the official school until graduation, even though he was not actually interested in the things that the old master taught in class every day.
Of course, knowing more words will also be beneficial to learning military tactics and tactics in the future. At least the chance of being deceived may be less - if he doesn't know that in a modern society, those with high academic qualifications and high IQ will also be deceived.
The evil religions and sects are so deceitful that it is not uncommon for them to go bankrupt, have their wives and children separated, or simply be cuckolded.
"By the way, Xiaolin. After the spring, we will prepare for a one-year school trip. Do you have any favorite places?"
"My favorite place? There is really a place I really want to go to. If I have time, I would like to visit Pingcheng, but I heard that the popularity there seems to have been greatly affected after this war. In other words, Beiyu in the clouds,
Why don't you just run further away and go to the nearest heavy
I want to visit the newly built Jilusai or the big city, but I don’t know if I, an ordinary student, will be able to stay and travel there. If Jilusai doesn’t work, the next best option is Linrong and Guangmu.
I have long wanted to see the Hetao area in Monan."
"That's such a pity. I plan to go to Beidi to have a look. Maybe I will take a temporary job in Fuping or Lian County to get some training."
"Oh~ I can't believe that you, Abai, are so weak and weak, but you can go to such a dangerous place. I heard that the Xianbei people's Western Route Army sent an entire unit as a partial division to attack Lian County.
It’s just that it seems that the bloody battle for seventeen days failed to capture it, but it also cost nearly half of the soldiers and civilians in the city. If this happens again, I’m afraid it’s hard to say whether we will win or lose.”
"You said it so fiercely, aren't you tempted?"
"Hehe, there's nothing we can do about it. If I ask to go to that kind of place, my old man will probably peel me off. Although the north is a bit dangerous, he also has many friends there. As long as I decide to go
He can take care of me everywhere, so it's relatively safer. I really want to try it out, but it's a pity that I still need him to support the tuition fees in the next few years."
It seemed that he was thinking that although Song Lin was extremely successful in business, he was somewhat ineffective in educating his son. It seemed that "impatient" would be a more accurate word to describe his father. Li Bai couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face.
Dads in the world can be roughly divided into two types. In front of their sons, they are just like door gods, or in front of their sons, they will do some weird or cool behaviors from time to time.
Song Lin's father should be considered the leader among the latter, and his father...
It seemed that he had thought of something interesting, and the smile on Li Bai's face became even stronger.
With such a good mood, Li Bai spread out the high-quality white paper he had just asked his father to buy, picked up a pen, and wrote words and sentences on it that he didn't know the content of, but judging from his smile that never faded and occasionally grew.
, obviously all happy things.
