    The ineffective arguments and quarrels among the village chiefs have been going on for two days. Zi Baifeng showed his face on the first day, and then he lost interest at all. He left Yan Laowu to quarrel with others here and went on his own.  Wandering around Mengcheng Mansion.  The old man was very arrogant and majestic when they quarreled, but the clan elders here didn¡¯t have a fuel-efficient lamp, which was an eye-opener for Zi Baifeng.  The quarrel mainly focused on how to distribute the three thousand jade stones, how many people in each village, and how much each household should bear.  A certain village suffered a loss last time and must get it back this time, but others are absolutely unwilling to do it.  As they talked, these old guys were settling old scores, waving their fists and preparing to perform a full-scale martial arts show. Several Muramasa who came with them were young people they had just met, and their faces turned pale with fright, and their faces were fighting.  war.  Looking at the progress, it is estimated that it will take three or four days of quarreling to get a preliminary result. The village leaders lost their patience one by one, and in the end only the elders were left arguing here - drinking and arguing.  It is said that three women are equal to five hundred ducks, but a dozen gentlemen here are better than five hundred women. With such loud voices, no one can stay in Mengcheng Mansion during the day. Even the man has changed his office.  .  Zi Baifeng left Mengcheng Mansion and went straight to the academy.  The academy is not far from Mengcheng Mansion, just to the east of Mengcheng Mansion. It covers an area slightly smaller than Mengcheng Mansion. It is one of the largest buildings in Mengcheng Mansion. However, compared with the grandeur of Mengcheng Mansion, the academy seems much peaceful.  Brick and white walls, low-key and elegant.  The main entrance of the academy is not very wide. It has the word "Dongmeng" written on it, which is the name of the academy.  There is a small square in front of the academy. On weekdays, many students play and exercise here. It is regarded as an outdoor playground. At the edge of the venue, there is a shadow wall. At this time, many white and black papers are posted on the shadow wall.  Dongmeng Academy has released the results.  Anyone who is on the list can enter the academy to study.  Although Dongmeng Academy is called an academy, it is half academy and half official school.  The academy is maintained by grants from the city and donations from wealthy businessmen. Wealthy students pay tuition, while poor students can replace tuition through various labors and even receive certain subsidies.  The original Zi Baifeng was of the latter type.  Half of the reputation of Dongmeng Academy comes from the policies of the academy itself, and the other half comes from the teacher. The teacher is famous all over the world. It is said that many of his disciples and disciples are in power, and the prince is actually one of his students. In Mengcheng, Shang  From the ruler of the mansion to the servants, everyone calls him sir without calling him by his first name.  When Zi Baifeng arrived in front of the academy, he saw that there were crowds of people in front of the academy. Among the people looking at the list, there were many students who came from other places carrying luggage and road documents.  Students are also attracted by their teacher's reputation. If they come to study, they can get guidance from their teacher, which is equivalent to opening up a bright road.  To be honest, many of these people actually came here for the position of "Muramasa". The position of Muramasa, which is often used to make fun of Zi Baifeng, is already a great job in the eyes of many people.  .  Last time, the Mengcheng Prefecture only selected twenty or thirty village chiefs, and there were nearly a hundred villages that did not select a village chief. This is also a job that can receive royal food and salary. With this job, at least you will not have to worry about continuing your studies.  I'm hungry.  Zi Baifeng was looking left and right when he heard a shout from the other side: "Sir! Sir, this way!" Zi Baifeng saw the sixth grandson of Yan Laowu's family grinning.  While smiling, he waved to Zi Baifeng.  Zi Baifeng squeezed in all the way, sweating all over his head, and saw that six students in the village were there, and they were all laughing. Elders from their families were also accompanying them, and they were all laughing, and they followed.  The few young people who came to join in the fun were all laughing. A large group of people gathered around and laughed heartily, not to mention how conspicuous they were.  "What's wrong, so happy? How many have passed the exam?" Zi Baifeng asked with a smile.  ¡°Sir, guess what!¡± Yan Xiaoliu smiled and let it slip.  This Yan Xiaoliu was Zi Baifeng's classmate before, and later he was whipped by his grandfather several times because of Zi Baifeng. He was still a little unconvinced, but after a few classes with Zi Baifeng, he became submissive.  I don¡¯t know if the beating given by Yan Laowu had an effect. This boy was considered serious. In Zi Baifeng¡¯s view, the academy exam was indeed not that difficult. With the teaching in accordance with his aptitude and the strengthening of the examination, this boy¡¯s  The results improved by leaps and bounds, and six people were finally selected to take the exam.  "I guess?" Zi Baifeng stood on tiptoes and looked towards the list. However, there were too many people, they were crowded, and the distance was a bit far. Where could he see them all at once?  "Nothing big, no little!" Yan Er came out. Yan Er had a fatherly demeanor, was quite serious, and was quite respected by his juniors. He saluted Zi Baifeng and said, "Sir, all six of them have passed the exam.  On."  On weekdays, he would occasionally call Zi Baifeng by his name, and occasionally he would call him Master Xiucai, but today he said sir sincerely.  "Everyone passed the exam? Even Xiaoliu passed the exam?" Zi Baifeng laughed out loud, "Xiaoliu, you didn't cheat, did you? You're just lucky!" Yan Xiaoliu  Instead of being ashamed, he was proud of it. He pretended that Zi Baifeng was praising him, raised his head and said, "You don't even know who I am!" This guy turned around and flattered him very obediently, "You don't even know who our husband is!"  As Yan Xiaoliu's father, Yan Er said humbly on his behalf: "It's all thanks to the teacher's good teaching. Otherwise, my naughty Xiaoliu might not have been able to get into the academy."  Will Xiaoba and Xiaojiu be far behind?  I don¡¯t know if the eldest, second, third, fourth and fifth will have a chance to take the exam again "Not bad, not bad!" Zi Baifeng reached out and touched Xiao Liu's head. Although he was not older than Yan Xiaoliu, Yan Xiaoliu  But he didn't move away.  ¡°I¡¯m so envious, brother, that all six students have passed the exam.¡± Someone next to me interjected.  Zi Baifeng turned his head and saw a tall and sturdy young man standing behind him. The man had a square face and a big nose. There were still some pits and pits on his face that were left by acne. His hair was thick and short, and there were some pimples on his head.  Got a little ball.  Even though he looked like this, he still dressed like a scholar, wearing green blouse.  "Brother, you are" Zi Baifeng felt that this person looked familiar, but he didn't recognize him.  "My dear Liu Ziyan, I was lucky enough to sit in front of my brother during the first college examination." The man said.  Zi Baifeng glanced at him, recalled it carefully, and immediately recalled that there was indeed such a person sitting in front of him at that time.  "Where is Brother Ziyan now?" Zi Baifeng cupped his hands and asked.  "I am now the village chief of Daoliu Village. However, compared with brother Zi, this village chief is really far behind. Brother Zi's reputation has already spread throughout Mengcheng." Zi Baifeng continued to do  Two major things happened. One was to beat the drum to complain against the prince, but not only was he not blamed by the prince, but was reused. Immediately, two people with luck also came to beat the drum to complain against the prince.  If he is not punished - it shows the great love of the prince.  The other time was even more famous. Zi Baifeng cursed Fei Jianzi and walked out of Mengcheng Mansion alive. This is even more legendary.  "You're making fun" Zi Baifeng's face turned red. He had no choice but to show his face.  "That day when Xiongtai fell asleep in the examination room, I knew that Xiongtai was an extraordinary talent. When I saw him today, it turned out to be true. Even the son-in-law under Xiongtai's rule was so impressive. Alas, I, Dao Liucun  "He pointed at a group of dejected teenagers behind him. Each of those teenagers was as dead as his parents, and the youngest one was sobbing.  "The whole army was wiped out?" Zi Baifeng shook his head with a smile and said: "It was like this for a few years before we went to Yan Village. Now more and more people come to Dongmeng Academy. There are only a few students in the academy. I think  It's getting harder and harder to pass the exam. " "Who says it isn't? I just saw a student there who traveled more than 500 miles to take the exam. When he came, he had already spent all his money.  He failed the exam and was worried about how to go back. " "This is really pitiful" Zi Baifeng expressed some sympathy, but he also experienced fleeing when he was young. At that time, the father and son were penniless and had no money along the way.  You know how much hardship you have endured. Once, the father and son were hungry for two days. Zijian made a lifelike rabbit out of straw and sold it to a kind person. Then he changed it into a bun. Dad was still reluctant to eat it, so he gave it to Zi Baifeng.  eaten.  After two years of wandering, I walked slowly for five hundred miles. When I got home, I realized the hard work and that I had to study hard.  "Who says it's not?" Brother Liu Ziyan seems to like this sentence very much.  "Brother Zi." Liu Ziyan shook her head, clasped her fists again, and said, "Brother Zi, what do you think about the jade tax?" Zi Baifeng raised his eyebrows, and Liu Ziyan said quickly: "To be honest, our Daoliu Village is too  Those who need to pay the jade tax, our Daoliu Village has lost a layer of skin last time when the government levied a supplementary tax. We are really unable to do so this time" Zi Baifeng overturned the tax in his own village, and other villages,  It was impossible for him to take care of them all, but the governor did not vigorously collect debts. These villages just had some ideas and got rid of the crisis of tax collection. To a certain extent, Zi Baifeng saved these people, but even  Even a small amount of tax can make these people extremely uncomfortable.  "Oh, I really envy Brother Zi. He is a talented writer and unparalleled eloquent speaker. Those of us who are in the same field as Brother Zi are so ashamed." "That's an honor" Zi Baifeng frowned and said, "I haven't thought about it now.  What to do, we can only take it one step at a time. " "Actually, many of our village leaders at the same time have gone into production.They have all arrived in Mengcheng now. We have met in Mengcheng at noon to discuss the jade tax. It can be regarded as a wedding banquet for our fellow scholars.  Seeing that Zi Baifeng was hesitant, Liu Ziyan said again: "Brother Zi, don't worry, the money will be divided equally."  "If we follow common sense, Zi Baifeng will be given more money as the top one, but Zi Baifeng is just a village masa like them, so everyone will share the money equally.
