Chapter 66: Official career economy in Volume A
After thinking for a while, Feng Ziying wrote down two words first, reading.
Reading is the most important. It is the only basis for entering the core of political power in this era.
It is unrealistic for a single person like me to try to turn things around all of a sudden by relying on my own strength. But if you want to utilize and integrate more resources, whether they are political or economic resources, you must first grow stronger. Only then are you qualified to attract, recruit and utilize other people's resources.
Resources are mutual. It never says that you only take but don’t give. If you want others to follow you, or if you want to follow others, you have to show your own value.
Study, pass the provincial examination, the general examination, and be qualified as a scholar. Only by obtaining these two qualifications can you say that you have the foundation to step into the center stage of Zhou Dynasty politics. Therefore, even if Feng Ziying knew that the scientific examination would be difficult for her, No matter how old you are, you should be prepared to give it a try.
To study, you have to choose a good teacher or academy, or even a better learning environment. This is very important, especially for someone with a weak foundation like you.
Fortunately, he is not without his advantages. Compared with the eight-part essay selection method of the Ming Dynasty, the scientific examinations of the Great Zhou Dynasty have undergone relatively big changes. The pattern of purely relying on classics and meanings is no longer, especially the format is no longer so rigid. Relatively speaking, the proportion of pragmatic policies has greatly increased.
These are also some changes that started in the era of the Supreme Emperor. This once made many scholars dissatisfied, but this change finally persisted.
This is a good trend for myself.
After all, I was considered a master of political commentary in my previous life. I had been a leadership secretary for many years, and a deputy director and director of the office for many years. I was good at writing articles, especially such political commentary. It was a piece of cake. Of course, this also needed to be based on the current situation of Dazhou. In reality, this is not a big problem.
Extending from studying, it is necessary to accumulate enough resources. Teachers in the room and classmates in the same year and fellow students are all real resources. In this world, these resources have a greater role, so they need to be absorbed through various methods. and savings.
Reading is the first priority, but it does not mean that other things cannot be done simultaneously.
For example, some connections and relationships need to be slowly established and accumulated, and even use various opportunities to continuously deepen and consolidate them, such as Chen Jingxuan and Qiao Yingjia, such as Zhang Jin, and even Jia Yucun and Xue Jun, as well as the derived Jia Wang Xue Sanjia.
Her own age is a big issue, and she cannot participate in many things yet, but Feng Ziying has also made up her mind to intervene in her father's future career.
It is okay to seek reunification, but you cannot choose sides randomly, as this is related to the long-term interests of the future.
There is no need to throw away silver randomly. Use the blade of a knife to pick up good steel. When you really need to use silver, you will not be stingy, but there is no point in throwing it away when you see others.
My father is still a little behind in political acumen and vision. It is very likely that he is limited by his status and tradition, and it is also possible that he does have some secrets that he does not know, but it is not advisable in any case.
In addition to these, it is necessary to start the economic management first. It would be bad to sit back and have nothing, and then be stretched when you really need to spend money in the end. However, my father seems not to care much about this, and he still has to do it. Put some effort into your mother's side.
Yun Shang just watched the young master write things here one by one. After following Feng Ziying for several years, she could recognize some words and could even write ordinary letters, but today the young master wrote She couldn't understand these things.
Then she wrote about "people connections", "resources", "economy", etc., which were things she didn't understand. She also connected them with lines and marked them with some incomprehensible symbols. In the end, she was dumbfounded. I stared blankly for a long time, seeming to be thinking about something, but in the end I decided to take them and burn them myself.
Yun Shang felt that after coming back from this trip, it seemed that the young master in front of her who used to be a little green and immature had changed a little. Although he was still very affectionate to her and even felt a little more pity for her, there was always a lingering feeling in his body. An indescribable strange smell, how should I put it, it was so mysterious that Yun Shang couldn't see through it at all.
Thinking about the things he did in Linqing, if it hadn't come from the mouth of the always rigorous Feng You, and it had been confirmed by Ruixiang, Yun Shang wouldn't have believed that this was the person who was a little careless about everything. The young master.
Yun Shang, who was lying on the bed in the outer room, tossed and turned all night, but the young man in the inner room seemed completely unaware of this.
Feng Ziying slept very uneasily that night. Countless dreams were mixed together and filled in her mind. However, she had never been in this situation for so many days in Linqing. On the contrary, it was like this when she returned home.
The next morning when Yun Shang was waiting for him to dress and wash his face, he seemed to have understood all of a sudden and naturally accepted these services that he was not comfortable with at first.
“Master, did you come back late last night? Where did you rest?” After washing and having breakfast, Feng Ziying concentrated on her luck.
Logically speaking, he should report to the Imperial College, but the system of the Imperial College has actually become a bit of a decoration. It is rare for someone like Feng Ziying to specifically ask for leave. There are special procedures, and they also have to sign for a sacrificial wine, while some people I don't bother studying in the Imperial College, just because I need this qualification and I have to pass the monthly exams.
Yun Shang was startled. Who dared to find out which aunt or wife's room the master rested in last night? He was so impatient?
I'm afraid only the young master dares to ask this, but it's also too abrupt.
Seeing that Yun Shang didn't dare to answer, Feng Ziying finally reacted and shook her head: "Forget it, I'll go to my wife's place."
After arriving at her mother's place to say hello, Feng Ziying knew that her father probably didn't rest at her mother's place. He guessed that he was at his aunt's place, or he was resting directly in the study.
“Did father come back late last night?”
"Your father went to a banquet last night to celebrate the birthday of the mother of a member of the Ministry of War. He came back late and rested at your aunt's place." Feng's mother still knew the situation at home very well.
Feng Ziying knew that the aunt in her mother's mouth must be the real aunt. If she was with Aunt Su or Aunt Xie, she must mention her surname.
“Father hasn’t gotten up yet?” Feng Ziying asked casually.
"Your aunt sent someone to say that we may have drunk too much yesterday, so it's probably time to get up by now, right?" Mother Feng didn't care at all. Seeing her son acting like a grown-up in front of her, she also found it interesting. : "Son, in the past it was rare for you to come and sit in my room. Saying hello was like burning your **** before leaving, but how can you settle down today?"
"Well, there are some things that I need to discuss with my father and mother." Feng Ziying glanced at the maid Mingzhu next to her mother, but seeing no reaction from her mother, knowing that Mingzhu must be a caring person around her mother, she said: "My son wants to ask about the current situation at home. The living and expenses situation.”
Feng's mother was surprised. Why did her son suddenly ask about these things? I have never mentioned these things in the past, and I have never been interested in them. I even looked at them with disdain. Why are you asking about them now?
Requesting all kinds of support!
