No matter how much the ministers objected, the business exam went on as scheduled.

Most of the people who came to sign up were young men or managers from merchant families. Shen Mozhu, with his scholarly temperament, stood out from the crowd.

Because Shen Mozhu has been handling various matters on Liuhua Street these days, many people know him.

Naturally, I wanted to chat with him. Everyone knows that the most prosperous street in the capital is Liuhua Street. Not only are there many novelties, but there are also various activities every now and then.

Even if people want to learn, they can't learn the key points.

No one who does business well is dull and stupid. Everyone is very tactful, fearing that they might offend someone accidentally.

In the past, Shen Mozhu was somewhat averse to such interactions. He thought they were mercenary. But after these days of baptism, he had changed his mind.

Interpersonal communication is a science in itself, and interpersonal communication between businessmen is even more particular.

As he gradually came into contact with it, Shen Mozhu felt that the tricks here were not only interesting, but also revealed a philosophy that he had never paid attention to before.

These details are not found in the books of sages. They are passed down from generation to generation.

Shen Mozhu is now adept at handling other people's conversations.

"Brother Shen, I heard that the business exam was decided by the Emperor? So will there be only this one exam and there will be no chance again in the future?!"

The son of a supplier who had business connection with Liuhua Street whispered in his ear.

"Brother Zhang, be careful with your words." Shen Mozhu glanced at the gate of the Political and Educational Department.

Zhang Jinsheng reacted immediately and stretched out his hand to hit himself on the mouth. "Blame me! Blame me! You dare to say such nonsense! Brother Shen is right to remind me. Thank you, Brother Shen!"

They are now waiting at the door of the Political and Educational Department, waiting for the door to open and go in to take the exam.

Shen Mozhu waited until his movements stopped before saying meaningfully, "Brother Zhang, no matter what happens at any time, opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared."

These were the words that the young lady had said to him before, and now he took them as his guiding principle.

"Brother Shen is really insightful! I really like what he said."

When he wanted to say a few more words, the door of the Political and Educational Department opened, and a police officer came out and directed the examinees to go in.

Because time was so tight, most of the people who came to take the exam this time were from the capital and nearby prefectures. People from places further away simply didn't have time.

As a result, only about a hundred people took the reference this time.

Li Jianguo was afraid of offending those sour Confucian scholars too much at once, so he did not arrange for them to take the exam in the Imperial College, but instead sent them to the Political and Educational Department.

Anyway, all we need is a local exam recognized by national law that can accommodate so many people.

Everyone was arranged in the large courtyard of the Political and Educational Department, and desks had already been set up.

The business exam is different from the imperial examination. There is no need to stay in the Imperial Examination Hall for several days and nights.

You just need to answer three test papers within the specified time.

These three test papers respectively tested their literacy level, arithmetic level, and understanding of the laws of Dachen.

This is a question Li Jianguo personally came up with based on Dachen's current situation and combined with China's elementary school mathematics.

A businessman who can't read won't have much future. When you write a contract with someone, they can easily set traps for you, which is both embarrassing and costly.

The arithmetic level is of course to test the arithmetic level. It would be a joke if a businessman couldn't even do the math.
