I opened a tavern in Datang/Datang: My peerless talent was exposed

Zheng Shanguo didn't explain much, and simply wrote two more lines,

"When it rains, stay with guests for days, stay for days, but I won't stay!"

"It's raining, stay away, God! Will you stay with me? Stay!"

Although I thought of the beauty of punctuation before, when the Patriarch of the Lu family and Zheng Shanguo saw that this was true without adding or subtracting a word, and the punctuation alone expressed different meanings, the two couldn't help but sigh. The magic of punctuation.

The Lu family is a family of poets and books. When the head of the Lu family saw Zheng Shanguo writing four articles in a row, he immediately became interested. He directly snatched the pen from Zheng Shanguo's hand, took another piece of paper and started writing again.

"It's raining, does God keep guests? God! God keeps me? No!"

"Stay on a rainy day? Stay every day? I don't! Stay?"

"To keep guests on a rainy day? My God! I won't stay if it's raining!"

"It's raining, stay here, will you stay with me? Stay!"

Well, seeing this, Zhang Nuo couldn't help applauding lightly from the sidelines. This is really a manifestation of strength. He has just come into contact with this punctuation mark, and he can know how to use it in an instant.

The most difficult thing is, on the basis of Zheng Shanguo's four excellent answers, how long has it been since he turned around and came up with four completely different answers.

This is really a manifestation of strength!

Zhang Nuo looked at the scene before him with a smile,

"Mr. Lu, Mr. Zheng, I just want to post this detailed explanation of punctuation marks to the newspaper in the next few days. Then I will use our example just now as an example. It just so happens that the two Patriarchs have given the answer, and I will let you know when the time comes." Let the people of the world see how miraculous this punctuation mark is, and at the same time let the people of the world see the demeanor of the two Patriarchs, what do you think?"

The two Patriarchs were delighted when they heard it. It would be a fool to disagree with such a good thing. They are not doing something sneaky.

As the first batch of people who came into contact with this punctuation mark, it is an honor to participate in this kind of elegant event, not to mention it can be used as an example in the article published by Mr. Xiao Zhang.

From their point of view, even after thousands of years, all scholars have to learn this punctuation mark, so will they remember the names of two old men among the first batch of users?

What an honor this is!

Chapter 416 First Inaugural Campaign

The two patriarchs were so happy right now. Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, they really just came to this Lantian New City for a walk, and they could get a good chance to make a name for themselves for nothing.

They absolutely believe that this punctuation mark can be passed down through the ages, not only because of the novelty of this punctuation mark, which has never appeared before, but more importantly, this punctuation mark can really solve the big problems of all current scholars!

From then on, students don't have to worry about being cheated by teachers who are not good enough, and scholars don't have to worry about being fooled by fake books or books that are copied incorrectly.

God knows how many talented and bright students used to learn a mess of wrong knowledge because of mediocre teachers. One of the big reasons is that these mediocre teachers themselves didn't understand.Therefore, according to my own understanding, I will teach indiscriminately.

But now with this punctuation mark, as long as you understand the basic knowledge, even a mediocre teacher can explain the book clearly.

At the same time, there is no need to worry about those scholars who had no money to buy books before being entrapped by copied wrong and missing books. You must know that books have always been valuables in the past.

Scholars from poor families who can't afford books usually borrow books from aristocratic families or great scholars, and at the same time copy them in the shortest time. The time is tight and the task is heavy. The final result is that there are often mistakes and omissions.

And if such a wrong book is circulated again, it will not be one or two people who have been entrapped.

Now with this punctuation mark, although it can't completely change the whole situation, at least there are undoubtedly fewer mistakes and omissions. In addition to the cheap books sold in large quantities at Mr. Zhang's bookstore, it may not take a few years. Every reader will have a proofreaded book with punctuation marks.

So, what a blessing to be able to participate in such events.

However, no matter how happy you are, there is a limit. After all, these days, people pay attention to whether they are flattered or humiliated. Wouldn't it be ignorant to say something too embarrassing?

So, after the three of them chatted about punctuation marks for a while, they turned around and talked about the arrangement of these family children.

After all, this is the most important thing today, no amount of caution can be overstated.

While chatting, Zhang Nuo felt that the time was almost up, so he led the two big men to the outside room, watching the bustling group of scholars communicating in low voices, he couldn't help feeling like he saw leeks in the field.

These are all leeks that are about to be harvested by him. I work hard for him, and I have to be grateful. At the same time, I have to provide policy adjustment ideas and classic cases. As far as the leeks are concerned, I, Zhang Nuo, call you the strongest .

Zhang Nuo looked at the two stacks of materials that had been piled up on the counter, and directly took them over to read them.

The two patriarchs of the family didn't bother to say hello at this time, and they directly moved to the side to look at it. They were also worried. It didn't matter if there were a few deviant among these bastards, after all, not everyone was willing to follow the family path.

But if there are too many such people, it will be miserable. After all, the family inheritance cannot be cut off just like that. The cut off of the inheritance mentioned here is by no means the kind of cutting off children and grandchildren.

To be precise, it is the inheritance of culture and heritage, just like the Ming Dynasty. In fact, muskets and artillery have already developed better than those in Europe. As long as they are the people of Ming Dynasty, there is no one who does not know the power of firearms.

But when the wild boar skin came, and hundreds of years later when the allied forces invaded, when everyone first saw the muskets and cannons, they thought they were demons. How sad it was, but in fact, this was the result of the severance of cultural and heritage inheritance. result.

Having said that, in fact, the family inheritance is not like this. The inheritance of the Lu family is Confucianism, and the inheritance of the Zheng family is the experience of governing. These are accumulated by the ancestors of the two families. Continuously increase the accumulation, then the family will be even more dazzling.

It is also because of this that every family attaches great importance to family inheritance, especially the talented and intelligent elite children, who must study hard in the family.

Now judging from the information in Zhang Nuo's hand, it's okay, except for a few outstanding children who chose a different path from the family, most of them still choose according to the knowledge taught in the family. way out.

But this is normal, it's as if you majored in biochemistry and environmental materials in college, but when you choose a job, you choose a programmer career.

This is really not something that ordinary people have the guts to choose. One needs to understand and be interested in the new profession, and the other also needs a head start!

That's right, if you don't have a strong head, most people really don't dare to do this, after all, their family patriarch is still watching.

Zhang Nuo didn't say anything else. This was their own choice. After all, they were the first generation of leeks, so there was still some preferential treatment.

"Everyone, I have seen your choices, and I will respect your choices. At the same time, someone will take you to a resting place after you go out later!"

"Because everything is new at present, the accommodation conditions are a little rough, and it will be resolved soon.

Of course, you will know clearly when the time comes, after all, some of you will be assigned to the Urban Construction Administration. "

"Before you, a group of people have already arrived at the post ahead of time. Some of them come from aristocratic families and some are from poor families. But there is one thing that everyone is the same, that is, they are all unfamiliar with the new job position!"

"So, starting from today, you have three days. After three days, you and the previous group of people will meet again. You just learned the news, and they will be notified later!"

"You have three days to think about it carefully. If you were the superior of your department, how would you manage your department and how would you manage the entire city at the same time."

"At that time, I will invite the two family patriarchs, court officials, and even His Majesty and Prince to listen to your reports, and finally select the best candidate from all candidates to be the first leader of the department!"

After Zhang Nuo said this, everyone's eyes lit up, my God, this is simply an opportunity to reach the sky in one step!

Listen to what Zhang Nuo just said about the candidates for the guest three days later. Your Majesty, the crown prince, the court officials and the family patriarch, Nima, apart from Zhang Nuo, few people really dare to make such a guarantee to invite someone over.

However, they all knew Zhang Nuo's identity before they came, so they naturally knew the family-like relationship between this Lord Xiao Zhang and His Majesty, and they also knew that with His Majesty's trust in this Lord Zhang Nuo, this matter is really serious. Very simple one thing.

However, isn't this a good opportunity for the children of these aristocratic families?

Chapter 417 Re-entering Chang'an City

The news announced by Zhang Nuo is undoubtedly a blockbuster to the children of these aristocratic families.At the same time, Zhang Nuo also took this opportunity to invite the two patriarchs.

The two patriarchs agreed without hesitation. On the one hand, they wanted to witness their children shine, and on the other hand, they also took this opportunity to communicate with His Majesty and other courtiers.

What's more, they are also particularly interested in this method of putting promotion on the bright side.

Because Zhang Nuo has already made it very clear that what he believes in here is that the capable go up and the mediocre go down. It is useless to form cliques, because there is no need for the audience present to vote, and it is useless to cheat, even if you ask someone to write it for you. After the manuscript has passed the primary election, when you are in charge afterwards, your approach and effect will not reach the standard in the manuscript you wrote, and you will still be exposed, causing even more trouble at that time.

Moreover, knowing that one person's ascendancy means that a bunch of people are stepped down, so it's no wonder that these people keep staring at this superior official.

Therefore, this trick is a conspiracy, everyone does it according to their ability, don't beep if you can do it or not, all family backgrounds are thrown aside, just see the real chapter in front of everyone.

Among the children of many aristocratic families, although many of them were a year or two older than Zhang Nuo, they saluted obediently at this time, and then hurriedly ran outside.

It is not so easy to come up with a very practical policy outline in three days. If you don't cherish the time, it is really not enough.

The faces of the two Patriarchs were a little ugly.After all, in comparison, at the same age as a weak crown, this Master Xiao Zhang is already so good, but his own children are reckless like a brat, how could he not get angry.

As you can imagine, these disciples probably won't be able to escape after a training session.

However, this is beyond Zhang Nuo's control. After all, he is only the superior of these people. Could it be possible to prevent their family elders from teaching them at home?

And after Zhang Nuo formally notified all the public officials who were already on duty about this matter, the entire Zhuangzi completely boiled up.

Even the dealers who will not participate in it at all, are talking about it in their spare time, discussing which hero will stand out at that time.

Even the dealers are like this, not to mention the participants inside. From that day on, all the participants are in a hurry. ah.

After all, this is different from the imperial examinations. The imperial examinations not only have to be passed one by one, but even if one gets the title on the gold list, in the end, His Majesty and the courtiers have to discuss the next official position arrangement.

And at this time, the role of family background can be reflected. The children of the family with the care of the elders of the family can naturally fill in the vacancies immediately, and they are all good positions that are easy to make achievements, but the children of the poor family and other children may only be able to slowly fill in the vacancies. Wait until it boils slowly.

But Zhang Nuo's place is different, as long as there is only one competition, if he can stand out, he can be appointed to the position on the spot after the agreement is made.

Moreover, this is not a petty official. Now the entire court's attention is divided in this new city. According to the information they have inquired, as long as they can enter the new department this time, they will be able to work in the new department in the future. Can be promoted and appointed, it can be said to be a road to the sky.

Even ordinary officials are like this, so as the first head of the department, one can imagine how smooth the official career will be in the future, probably much better than those scholars who entered the Hanlin through the imperial examination!

The prosperity of the world is all for profit. All the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. As long as they are people, they have their own desires, and those who can be brought over by their families to work undoubtedly hope to continue on this road. Now that they have seen such a How could it be possible for them not to be excited by a grand avenue reaching the sky.

But Zhang Nuo didn't care about these excited scholars who were about to explode at this time. He was a typical type of man who would kill or bury him, and just run away after dropping a bomb.

The front foot made the management staff in the whole village go crazy, and even Li Chengqian came to him in a hurry, but he fooled him with a few words, and then plunged into Chang'an City.

He came to the city this time to discuss with Wei Zheng the publication of the detailed explanation of punctuation marks. Even if he is one of the bosses, he can't mess around. After all, if he doesn't say hello to Wei Zheng, it will definitely delay Wei Zheng's other manuscripts. Published.

The other thing is to discuss it with Li Shimin. He let the rumors out, saying that His Majesty and the courtiers will attend the meeting in three days, but if Li Shimin does not come by then, although people will not say anything on the surface, in fact It will still affect his prestige.

Zhang Nuo still knew a little bit of rules, he knew that as long as he entered Chang'an City, Lao Li would definitely know about it.

Therefore, if he did not go to Lao Li but went to other people, I am afraid that he did not take the emperor too seriously.

In any case, the Tang Empire is in charge, and it still needs to give some face.

So Zhang Nuo greeted Xingben and went straight to the palace.

The palace is still the same, majestic, tall but cold, but it is such a group of palaces, I don't know how many people want to go in, and there are even many people who want to be the masters of this palace.

Zhang Nuo just sighed temporarily. Anyway, in his opinion, as long as he has no idea, then according to the original history, it seems that there will be no rebellion.

With his help now, Datang's national strength will definitely rise further, so he will not be afraid of any small people.

As Li Shimin's sworn brother, Zhang Nuo's treatment in the palace is getting better and better. Before, he had to open a way to get in, but now he can get in just by showing his face.

As Li Shimin's servant, Zhang Nuo's face is still fresh in his memory. After all, there is only one person in this world who can face the emperor so easily.

Zhang Nuo had just walked into the Ganlu Hall where Li Shimin often lived, and when he saw the scene inside, he was immediately happy.

Well, he originally planned to talk to Wei Zheng about punctuation marks after going out, and then talk to Changsun Wuji and Du Ruhui about participating in the inaugural election, but after seeing this, there is no need to go out to look for it, it's all here All at once.

Zhang Nuo walked into the palace with a smile and said loudly,

"Haha, Old Wei, you guys are all here, Mr. Changsun is also here, and if Lao Du is here, it will save me the trouble of finding someone today!"

"Old Wei, take a look at this manuscript I'm going to post first, and I'll talk to others about another matter first, and I'll talk to you later after you finish reading it!"

Chapter 418 Li Shi people's amazement

Zhang Nuo directly took out the prepared manuscript from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Wei Zheng, then cupped his hands casually towards Li Shimin, and said with a smile,

"Old Li, don't run away, it will be Datang's first inaugural campaign in three days, you, as the emperor, have to go and have a good look!"

"Inaugural campaign? What does that mean?"

Li Shimin was always very sensitive about this kind of work-related matters, and he couldn't wait to ask questions as soon as Zhang Nuo finished speaking. Zhang Nuo naturally told everyone present what he had announced in front of those scholars.

Li Shimin is very interested in this kind of thing. At present, there have been several arguments in the court on whether to conduct the imperial examination and how often to conduct the imperial examination.

But as an ambitious emperor, Li Shimin really lacks talents. Now he hears about a new way of selecting talents. How can he not be excited?

"My dear brother, can this kind of method be implemented in the court? Does this count as your new policy?"

"no!"

Zhang Nuo and Du Ruhui blocked Li Shimin's thoughts with one voice. They looked at each other and then smiled. Du Ruhui nodded and said,

"Master Xiao Zhang, you should explain it, after all, what happened in your place!"

Zhang Nuo did not refuse, nodded and looked at Li Shimin and said;

"Lao Li, my place is different from yours. My place is full of new departments, and even the responsibilities of the departments are assigned to them by me. It can be said that no one in the world knows how these institutions should operate!"

"Everyone is crossing the river by feeling the stones. Therefore, in just a few days, those who can come up with a relatively mature ruling plan must have excellent ruling qualifications!"

"But this is based on the premise that everyone does not understand the situation, so this method was used only once, and will not be used directly in the future. After all, with the operation of various departments, more and more people know about it! "

"For the same reason, the reason why this method cannot be used in the court is the same. If the scholars are allowed to compete for the positions of the Six Departments. Then, wouldn't those scholars who come from official families take advantage of it?"

"After all, even under the influence of their ears and eyes at home, they know much better than ordinary people about the job responsibilities and operation methods in the six departments!"

"If these people are put together with ordinary scholars to compete with Zhuangzi's assessment method this time, wouldn't those scholars who come from the family of poetry and books and poor families have no chance of winning at all?"

Li Shimin nodded embarrassingly, mother, I was too excited just now, but those words blurted out, it seems that my thinking is not sound enough, but Brother Xiao Zhang and Du Ruhui discovered the problem in the first time, and it really is Smart and intelligent people.

However, Li Shimin felt that although it could not be applied to the court, it was still a matter of selecting talents for the country. It would be good to go and have a look at that time, and maybe some new methods of selecting talents could be found out from it!

Li Shimin nodded in agreement, and Changsun Wuji and Du Ruhui, who were both public and private, could only nod in agreement even if it was because of their personal relationship with Zhang Nuo, and promised to go to Zhuangzi together to watch the excitement.
