Chapter 559 Inquiry
Seeing that Yunmengxi didn't want to say more, Chu Zhuang didn't force him.
Everyone has their own concerns and secrets, even the closest lover, there is no need to tell each other all the concerns.
Chu Zhuang held Yunmengxi in his arms, and waited for him to recover before leading him out of the space.
In the evening, after Chu Zhuang had finished teaching a few kids, Guo Wen walked to the door, stopped again, and looked at Chu Zhuang hesitantly.
"what happened?"
Seeing that Guo Wen was worried, Chu Zhuang asked the other little guys to leave first, leaving Guo Wen alone to inquire.
"Brother Chu, can we also take part in the scientific examination in the future?" Guo Wen blinked, looked at Chu Zhuang and asked.
Guo Wen himself didn't really want to take the imperial examination, he asked for the students in the school.
The only way to change a person's birth and social status in this era is to take the imperial examination.
Guo Wen knew that Yongjian Lane had always been discriminated against by other people outside. He thought that if there were a few serious scholars with fame and status in Yongjian Lane, Yongjian Lane would not be like it is now. Discriminated against.
Chu Zhuang looked at Guo Wen in front of him. Although he is less than ten years old now, he has already considered very long-term issues.
Moreover, he did not live up to his status as the vice principal, and he had already begun to think about the future of the students.
"It is easy to take the imperial examination, but it is not easy to pass it."
Chu Zhuang did not regard Guo Wen as a child, and discussed with him seriously: "Especially the competition in Dongfeng Mansion is extremely fierce. If you want to pass, you have to compete with thousands of people for such a place."
It's okay to talk about other state capitals, but there are too many scholars in Dongfeng Prefecture, and there are too many powerful ones.
If you want to pass the exam here, even if you just want to be a scholar, you are one in a million.
"You are just starting to study, and you can take the imperial examination as your goal, but this can only be a long-term goal."
Chu Zhuang looked at Guo Wen and told him about the school's future plans.
"According to the courses I've arranged for you now, you need to finish at least six years of courses before you can take the imperial examination. Guo Wen, your progress is faster, but it will take at least four years."
Guo Wen and the others have been enlightened for less than a year. Although they are smart, they learn quickly.
But they haven't even started to get in touch with the imperial examination. Now it's just that they don't continue to be blind, they can recognize a few words, and they can do some simple arithmetic.
At this level, in the Yue Dynasty where 80.00% of the population is illiterate, they can barely be regarded as scholars.
But among the 20.00% of the reading crowd, they are undoubtedly at the bottom.
Even with Chu Zhuang teaching and assisting, it still needs a process of accumulation. After all, reading is not something that can be accomplished overnight, and Chu Zhuang will not spoil the growth.
"Four years?"
There was light in Guo Wen's eyes, and he clenched his small fists. Judging by his appearance, it was obvious that he had already set this as his main goal for the next four years.
"Don't push yourself too hard."
Chu Zhuang touched the top of Guo Wen's hair, and said in relief, "Although I hope you will work hard, I don't want you to only work hard in your life."
"I built such a big cuju field at school. It's not just for display. I go to play cuju with everyone when I have free time. Brother Chu is still in this year, and he can protect you for several years!"
Chu Zhuang also didn't want Guo Wen and the others to be too tired. It was because he needed to take the imperial examination and the school was newly established. Many things were crowded together, so everyone could only work harder.
But now that the school has been successfully established, everyone's division of labor has also gone down.
When it's time to rest, you should take a good rest.
After all, the combination of work and rest is beneficial to physical and mental health.
"Brother Chu..." Guo Wen blinked and looked at Chu Zhuang with emotion.
The reason why everyone was able to concentrate on studying in school, he knew very well in his heart that Chu Zhuang was protecting them from the wind and rain.
Without Chu Zhuang, most of them would not have survived the heavy snowfall last winter.
"Go and rest, you have to get up early to go to school tomorrow!"
Chu Zhuang persuaded Guo Wen and let him go back to rest.
"Chu Zhuang, Guo Wen and the others, according to the current study speed, how much hope do they have for being admitted to the imperial examination in the future?"
Yun Mengxi sent Guo Wen out, closed the door, looked at Chu Zhuang and asked curiously.
In his opinion, Guo Wen is already very powerful, much stronger than when he was a child.
"Well, it depends on how far they want to go."
Chu Zhuang thought for a while and said: "If it is only through the fame of a scholar, it should not be difficult in four years, but if you go further, you need to accumulate more. After all, their start is still a bit late."
"It takes four years to be admitted as a scholar, which is already very good!"
Yun Mengxi looked at Chu Zhuang in surprise and said: "I heard that many people have studied hard for more than ten years without getting any fame!"
Chu Zhuang raised his eyebrows and said, "There are probably only two reasons why I haven't gained fame after studying hard for so many years."
The examination for a scholar is not difficult. After all, the content of the examination for a scholar is not much and not complicated, just the content in those few scriptures.
"What's the reason?" Yunmengxi asked curiously.
"The first one is..."
Chu Zhuang pointed to his head, and said helplessly: "People with too low talent, I'm afraid..."
IQ is flawed, if you are an idiot, not to mention studying for ten years, even if you study for 100 years, you will not be able to get fame.
"Well……"
Yunmengxi thought for a while, nodded, and asked again: "What about the other reason?"
"The talent test does not have high requirements for talent. As long as you are not born with disabilities or have bad luck, you can basically pass. The reason why so many people fail is because they lost in preparing for the imperial examination." Chu Zhuang smiled. said with a smile.
People who can read books in this era are basically not fools.
Chu Zhuang believes that the biggest reason why so many people fail the exam lies in the way of education.
The way of following the scriptures is boring and tedious. Unless you are a very talented person, you will basically fall at the starting line.
Chu Zhuang's teaching method makes up for this very well, especially he advocates interesting teaching and competitive teaching in Yongjian School, which stimulates everyone's interest in reading.
Basically, as long as you follow the school's progress and complete the six-year courses honestly, as long as you don't encounter extreme unlucky situations, it is not difficult to pass the scholar's exam.
"Oh~"
After listening to Chu Zhuang's explanation, Yunmengxi showed a look of enlightenment, he looked at Chu Zhuang and asked: "Then there will be many talents in the school?!"
"This is not necessarily the case."
Chu Zhuang shook his head and said: "It also depends on whether everyone can persist in completing the six-year course."
The students in the school are not from good families. Basically, after one or two years of study, they have to go out to work to earn money. There should not be many people who can stay and continue their studies.
Moreover, the total number of people admitted each year is only so many. If you can't make it to the rankings, you won't be able to pass the exam.
Yunmengxi sighed slightly, he hoped that all those in his school who took the exam would be able to pass the exam.
"Now the school has just established classes. It will be several years before everyone goes to take the exam. Don't think so much now."
Chu Zhuang took Yunmengxi's hand and returned to the bedroom, and said with a smile: "Now what you should think about is how to spend time with me."
The two separated for such a long time because of the imperial examination, so now they have to make good compensation?
Seeing the naked look in Chu Zhuang's eyes, Yunmengxi blushed.
The candles in the room were blown out, and the night was still long, so they had enough time to have a good conversation.
Early the next morning, Chuzhuang and Yunmengxi went directly to Lin Huai after getting up.
"Young Master Chu, Young Master Yun!"
Seeing that it was Chuzhuang and the others coming, Lin Huai immediately greeted them.
He has now completed all the things that Chu Zhuang told him. As soon as his hands are empty, he feels sorry for the high wages that Chu Zhuang paid him, so he always wants to find something to do.
Seeing Chu Zhuang and the others come now, Lin Huai knew that there must be another work order, and couldn't help but get excited.
Chu Zhuang looked at Lin Huai's appearance, knew what he was thinking, and shook his head helplessly.
"Master Lin."
Chuzhuang and Yunmengxi greeted Lin Huai with a smile.
"Come inside and talk."
Lin Huai led Chu Zhuang and the others into the house, and ordered Lin Da to prepare tea.
"Da Lin, what about Lin Er and the others?" Chu Zhuang asked.
The dishonest Lin San has been thrown into the mine, and now the character of Lin Da and Lin Er is going to be investigated.
"These two are honest and well-behaved people. During this period of time, the things I explained to them have been completed."
Lin Huai himself is an honest person, so he also has a good impression of honest people.
Lin Da and Lin Er were not as flamboyant as Lin San, so he was naturally satisfied with them.
"Since you are an honest and responsible person, then exercise slowly and let them become your right-hand man." Hearing this, Chu Zhuang was slightly relieved.
Many of the things he needs Lin Huai to do need to be kept secret.
For the people around Lin Huai, character is more important than talent.
"Yes, I understand." Lin Huai nodded in response.
He also had this intention before, but this matter has not been approved by Chu Zhuang, and he cannot make decisions without authorization.
Now that Chu Zhuang agreed, he will really start to train Lin Da and Lin Er.
"Young Master Chu, do you have any orders today?" Lin Huai looked at Chu Zhuang and asked.
Chuzhuang and Yunmengxi looked at each other and nodded.
