Locked: God is the matchmaker, neither you nor I can escape
Chapter 321: Expedition Day (2)
The sweet potatoes were grown by someone else, with the emperor's special permission, so they could only watch as they were a curiosity.
A young man who was three people away from Hua Murong in the team took half a step forward and shouted loudly: "Hey! Do you have any sweet potatoes at home? If so, can you buy some for me?"
The eyes of the people around him lit up when they heard this, and someone immediately agreed: "Yes, if you have any extra, sell some to us."
"Yeah, if there aren't that many, then each person can sell a few sweet potatoes!"
"I'll give you one ounce of silver for each one!"
"I'll give you two taels!"
"Five taels!"
Hua Murong and the others looked at the sudden sound of bidding, looking puzzled. Did he promise to sell it?
They are quite skilled at forcing things to happen.
Listen, it’s not enough to raise the price, but also to report family affairs.
This side is the assistant minister's family, that side is the minister's family, there is also the general's family, and there are also the marquis's family and the duke's family...
Not to mention that he had no intention of selling it, just looking at the current situation, he didn't dare to sell it!
If we agree to sell it, and someone investigates and finds out that my brother-in-law has hidden some of the sweet potatoes, that would be a crime of deceiving the emperor!
Hua Murong did not stop them from bidding on their own, and quietly asked the inspecting officer: "Excuse me, has the inspection been completed?"
The officer came to his senses after hearing this and nodded: "Okay."
"Thank you very much. You have worked hard." Hua Murong immediately packed up her things and went to the examination room. She didn't have any money with her, so she couldn't give any reward and could only express her gratitude verbally.
It was not the first time that the official was in charge of checking the candidates. This was his third time to be on duty in the Spring Imperial Examination. He had checked at least several thousand candidates, if not tens of thousands. This was also the first time he received thanks from a candidate, and the words "thank you for your hard work".
You have to know that in recent years he has been responsible for checking the luggage of those noble young men. The well-educated ones all have stern faces, the average ones just roll their eyes, and the poor ones just curse, saying the most unpleasant words. This is the first time he has heard such heartwarming words...
Mu Xiong and his men followed suit and expressed their gratitude along with other officials.
The officers looked down at the names they had registered and each wrote down the names of "Hua Murong", "Mu Xiong", "Fei Yuning" and "Zhong Jing".
After entering the examination room, the three of them were scattered in different directions, occupying the four positions of east, south, west and north respectively, and were separated very thoroughly.
There were two toilets on the left and right of the examination room. Fei Yuning and Zhong Jing happened to be near the toilets respectively. They could see the toilets, but at a distance. If they were lucky, they could not smell any odor. If they were unlucky, they could smell some.
Mu Xiong was at the end of the examination room, right next to the entrance. It was a place that was strictly guarded by the guards. At the same time, it was also near the utility room. Every time the guards changed shifts, they would gather here and then separate, so there would be some noise.
As for Hua Murong, she was very "lucky" to be assigned to the first row, right under the examiner's nose.
If you don't cheat, you naturally don't have to be afraid of the examiners. However, the examiners will often come down to inspect and stare at the candidates' answer papers. This feeling of being "targeted" is not something that most people can bear.
The examiners have been in office for many years, and the imperial examination is such a rigorous and serious matter. Their aura is at least 70% activated if not fully activated. Ordinary students from poor families cannot withstand such pressure.
The four of them can be said to be lucky, but also unlucky. Their luck is a bit subtle.
