Early the next morning, after Chen Yu went downstairs, he found that many people had gathered downstairs, and they all seemed to be Juren.
Most of them gathered in twos and threes to discuss something.
Occasionally, some young children or young people in their teens sat together a little cautiously, taking out pens and paper to record something seriously.
For Chen Yu and the others, they can enjoy free board and lodging in these inns and enjoy the highest standard of treatment.
For others, however, the inns used by the Liang court to arrange Juren were worth a thousand gold.
It's not to say how luxurious these inns are, no matter how luxurious they are, they are just an inn.
What these inns sell is the added value of people like Chen Yu.
With so many people gathered together, even in Kyoto, it takes once every three years. If they can let their children enter the inn and enjoy the influence, many wealthy households in Kyoto are willing to spend a lot of money for it.
Therefore, in order to be able to make their own inn selected as one of the inns to receive Juren, the shopkeepers of these inns have used all their skills.
In more modern terms, it is similar to bidding.
As long as they can succeed, not only the expenses spent on Chen Yu and the others can be recovered several times on other people, but also the benefits in terms of reputation.
In case there is a Huiyuan, or even the number one scholar, in his own inn, the limelight will be unparalleled for a while. With this name, in the next few years, the business will rise by countless numbers.
Famous and profitable, it can be said that the competition is fierce.
…
After seeing Chen Yu going downstairs, a young man greeted him.
He arched his hands at Chen Yu, "I'm in Jiang Hongzhuo, Zhangxi County, Huaizhou, Xiahu, I don't know who your brother is..."
After recalling it, Chen Yu replied, "Chen Yu, Yitian County, Lanjiang Prefecture."
"I didn't expect Brother Chen to be from Lanjiang Prefecture."
Chen Yu was a little curious, "What happened to Lanjiang Prefecture?"
"Brother Chen doesn't know?"
Seeing Chen Yu shaking his head, Jiang Hongzhuo led Chen Yu to sit down in an empty seat.
I got myself a glass of water, moistened my throat and said, "I don't know if Brother Chen has heard of Li Xuebin."
Chen Yu nodded, "Of course I've heard of it, he was in the same class as me, a Xie Yuan from Lanjiang Prefecture."
Although Li Xuebin and Chen Yu have never met, there are still rumors that they took part in the provincial examination together with him, and won the first place in Lanjiang Prefecture, while Chen Yu was the seventh.
Jiang Hongzhuo didn't continue talking, but turned to Chen Yu and asked, "Speaking of which, Brother Chen must have only come to Beijing not long ago, right?"
There is nothing to hide about this, Chen Yu simply replied, "I just stayed at the inn yesterday evening."
Jiang Hongzhuo shook his head and said, "That's no wonder. Speaking of which, Brother Chen should have come a few days earlier. He might be able to show off."
After listening to Jiang Hongzhuo's next words, Chen Yu realized that three days ago, several influential people from the capital city held a poetry meeting together.
Seeing Jiang Hongzhuo's envious expression, Chen Yu smiled and said, "Poetry is only one of the five subjects in the examination. Even if that Li Jieyuan is good at poetry, it doesn't mean we have no chance."
Jiang Hongzhuo shook his head and said, "Brother Chen doesn't even think about it. Throughout the ages, there has been a champion and a champion at least every three years, but how many of them can be passed down through the ages?"
"To be honest, if possible, I would rather exchange my knowledge of half my life for a poem that can be passed down through the ages."
Chen Yu understood what Jiang Hongzhuo meant. In his opinion, being famous through the ages is the highest pursuit of a literati.
But for Chen Yu, he is more concerned about the current affairs. As for whether it can be passed down through the ages after death, Chen Yu doesn't care. In his opinion, death is dead, and fame is meaningless no matter how great it is.
Moreover, Chen Yu, who has a system, has greater ambitions. Instead of letting his reputation spread through the ages, it is better to let himself live through the ages.
At this time, the people next to him heard Jiang Hongzhuo's words, "Brother Jiang, are you still feeling emotional? Why don't you guess what things will be tested in the policy exam?"
In fact, there are only a few people like Jiang Hongzhuo, and most people are more concerned about whether they can pass this test.
Compared with Chen Yu's original world, Daliang's exam was more comprehensive.
The examinations held every three years are divided into five sessions, and each session lasts for one day, totaling five days.
The first test of scriptures is similar to the Four Books and Five Classics. Of course, it is not pure dictation, but the understanding of these scriptures. However, there are fixed answers. This test is considered a sub-question for all candidates.
In the second poetry test, three questions are generally given, and one of them is chosen to make a poem.
The third math test is to answer some math problems. It may be difficult for others, but for Chen Yu now, UU Reading www.uukanshu. com is not a big problem.
The fourth test questions, according to the usual practice, are two questions, mainly about the views and opinions on some problems existing in Daliang today.
The fifth session is also a policy question, but there is only one question. If the policy question in the fourth session is a proposition composition, then the fifth session is a self-proposition question, which is much more difficult.
…
During the discussion, Chen Yu also said a sentence from time to time. Although he didn't talk much, it gave people a refreshing feeling.
Therefore, many people present paid close attention to Chen Yu secretly, thinking that it was quite possible for Chen Yu to pass the examination.
In addition, there are a few who look better dressed than others. After seeing the little white fox lying on Chen Yu's shoulder, they got some thoughts.
However, after getting the news that Chen Yu would not sell, although it was a pity, he didn't make any further entanglements.
After all, their status is here, so there's no need for them to have any grudges over such a trivial matter.
What's more, Chen Yu's conversation is not an ordinary person. Compared with other people, he can be said to be the better part of this batch of candidates. One of the objects to make friends with.
…
After breakfast, Jiang Hongzhuo invited Chen Yu to visit the capital, but Chen Yu declined on the grounds that he needed to review his knowledge.
In fact, Chen Yu really planned to read books in these few days.
After Chen Yu returned to the room, under the somewhat curious gaze of the little fox, he took out a few books from the package.
A smile appeared on the corner of Chen Yu's mouth as he looked at these two books, "Main Policies of Chinese Dynasties", "Chinese Foreign Policy of Past Dynasties", and "Solutions to People's Livelihood Problems in Ancient China".
