Lan Bao couldn't describe his feelings with words. He hadn't studied for a long time and didn't have a photographic memory.
He felt that his Tang dynasty was good, just like the people in the Duojing government.
At this time, the sky in Chang 'an was later than in the Japanese Empire. The lights in the south of the city were the brightest.
When some shops were closed, they would bring the lights to the places where they were open for the students to use.
This included the glass lamps with candles inside. Kerosene, gasoline, and diesel had other uses, and paraffin was a by-product.
Most of the paraffin was bought by merchants, and it was much cheaper to light oil lamps in other places.
Few students came by car. It cost a lot to live in the city, and the price of inns was high.
The residential area after Ba Bridge was not allowed to enter. It used to be allowed.
They either lived in other counties because it was cheaper and inconvenient to communicate.
Most of them lived in Chang 'an in the south of the city. They had a certificate and lived in a small house without a toilet or kitchen. It only cost one yuan a day.
They prepared their own night buckets and poured them out at a fixed place during the day. It was called night incense, and they washed it.
Just like in Li Yi's old Shanghai, there were carts collecting the waste in the morning. After pouring it in, they went to the central place to wash it with water. They had to line up.
If any student said that he couldn't stand such dirty things, he would refuse.
Then there was no need to take the imperial examination. If he couldn't pass, he couldn't even answer all the questions correctly.
Li Yi could jump into the methane pool to take things out. Other people also had to do it. You can't do it? Why are you so delicate?
Students can do it. The 42 and 220 students before Li Family Zhuangzi had to help deal with the livestock sheds and chicken coops.
Then they all got A in the imperial examination, which meant that doing dirty and tiring work had an extra status when taking the imperial examination.
"Brother Feng Shuo, did you go to the manure pit during the day again? Smell, there's no smell on you. "
A few students were reading under the lights in the south of the city. Some of them were talking to their classmates.
The person called Feng Shuo was surnamed Shi, and his name was Yongqiu.
He made a lot of money from his work, mainly because he was careful. When he dug, he spilled very little and didn't spill any on the road.
Before he dug out the manure pit, he would spread a layer of sand around it. After sprinkling the sand, he would put the sand into the big bucket in the car.
What was even more amazing was that he had prepared water soaked in perilla leaves and sprayed it with a pump to cover the smell.
At the end of the day, he could earn more than 50 yuan, free baths, and a free lunch.
His breakfast depended on which workshop he went to. After he went in, the workshop head was also willing to give him a meal.
At night, he didn't eat. Instead, he came here to study. After he was done, he ate a bowl of noodles and walked over while reciting what he had learned.
"Yes, I've washed it. Since I'm doing this job, I use soap to bathe." Shi Yongqiu also smelled himself to make sure there was no bad smell.
"Which workshop are we going to tomorrow?" Another person asked casually.
"Tomorrow … Tomorrow is the birthday of Prince Xue's eldest son. I …" Shi Yongqiu paused.
"Brother Feng Shuo, you got the invitation?" The person who asked before was surprised. At the same time, he felt a little sour in his heart.
"It was Vice President Zhong's recommendation. My results in the painting competition were passable." Shi Yongqiu gave the answer. He had used Zhong Shaojing's connections.
Zhong Shaojing was sponsored by Li Family Zhuangzi to organize the competition. He picked the best ones and brought them to celebrate the birthday of Prince Xue's eldest son.
"Brother Feng Shuo, if that's the case, you are going to have a meteoric rise." Another person was also jealous, but he couldn't ridicule him.
"Meteoric rise? What meteoric rise? It's not like you don't know that if you want to walk the path of recommendation, you have to pass Doctor Li's test.
Those who can pass the Imperial Examination were recommended, but Doctor Li didn't agree. Later on, they passed the Imperial Examination.
Those who are recommended by Doctor Li will definitely have a higher ranking in the Imperial Examination. "
Shi Yongqiu shook his head lightly. The path of recommendation was too difficult!
No matter how many things you know, Li Yi guaranteed that he would be able to get to the bottom of what you are best at.
How many books did Li Yi write the annotations? What everyone learned was what he wrote.
"Shangshu", "Great Learning", "The Doctrine of the Mean", wasn't it all because of the annotations written by Li Yi?
The key point was that these books were all correct, but it only proved that you tried hard to memorize them. The subsequent problems were so difficult that it made people doubt their life.
The key point was that if Li Yi didn't pass the recommendation, he wouldn't be able to hold his head high if he passed the Imperial Examination. If he said that Li Yi didn't like him, he would still rely on his own ability.
It was useless. The Li Family Zhuangzi didn't lack the Imperial Examination at all.
You can pass the Imperial Examination, but you can't pass Doctor Li's test, isn't that normal?
After passing the test, you will be directly awarded an official position, then take the Imperial Examination, and your ranking will be high.
After the examination, you will be waiting to be assigned an official position, but it might not be real power.
Obviously, you want to go through the back door, but in the end, you have to go through the same examination as the Xiucai examination.
If you want to be assigned an official position, fine, you can go to the county's registrar outside the capital, the county's deputy, and the county's deputy.
Then, a group of people will watch over you. Not only can you not make mistakes, but you also have to make political achievements and recommend your Prince to bear the pressure.
What kind of relationship and talent do you have to make a certain Prince do this for you?
Do you know how much the Prince will suffer if you don't make political achievements?
Of course, the other kind of Imperial Examination is different. If you have talent and learning but don't have the qualifications to take the Imperial Examination, the requirements will be lowered and you will be given an official position first.
The students were in a good mood again. Yes, Shi Yongqiu wants to be recommended, but it will be difficult.
… …
"Brother Yi, do you have good wine? I brought you a person. Do you know how good he is in regular script? Today, I will show you how to draw."
Li Yi was barbecuing skewers outside when Li Chengqi chased after him with a man in his forties.
"I didn't bring wine or white wine for barbecued skewers. It's not good to drink white wine at night, so I only have beer. The yellow wine is used for the skewers."
Li Yi first gave a palace maid a big handful of barbecued skewers to let the others eat. He put some on a tray for himself and walked over.
After putting down the tray, he cupped his fists towards the man, "Brother, the weather is hot, how about drinking some cold beer?"
"Okay!" The other party also cupped his fists.
Li Yi poured three cups of beer and took a sip first.
However, the man directly raised his head and gulped it down. It's a two-liter cup!
When Li Yi was in the karaoke bar, a bottle of beer was more than 300 milliliters. A two-liter cup could fill six cups.
A 500ml jug of beer was four jugs. Not to mention drinking wine, even drinking water …
Li Yi took a deep breath and put the cup in front of his mouth again. Gulp, gulp. I can't lose.
"Why are you drinking so much stronger than before? I'm a little dizzy! Ugh! "The man who finished a large cup of beer burped at this time.
Li Yi: "… …"
He turned around and walked to a place where there was no one. Wah ~ ~ I've vomited. I haven't eaten the skewers yet. I've been barbecuing for others. Can I still eat after drinking so much beer?
On the way back, he took a detour to get some edamame.
"Just now, I … died, right?" Li Yi was just about to say that he was going to get something when he saw the man who was drinking beer vomiting into the bucket.
"When we came, he had just eaten and didn't drink. There's too much food in his stomach." Li Chengqi helped to explain.
"Okay, it's good that he vomited. Let's drink slowly."
Li Yi was glad that he had been eating on an empty stomach. It was very uncomfortable to vomit after eating.
