Rebirth, end of the world, time travel, escape famine, make money!

The next morning, Lin Weizhong took Liu Caixia, Liu Hao and others and set off in the family's ox cart, horse cart and bare carriage.

The three cars set off together, Liu Hao and Qu Dingliang went to the nearby village to collect the goods, while Lin Weizhong took Liu Caixia and the others back to open the store.

Everyone else stayed in the village and waited until the results were announced before packing up to go to the county town. As long as their names were on the list, they could prepare to go to the provincial capital to prepare for the provincial examination.

In the village, Luo Hong took out the real questions from previous years that he had bought from a bookstore in the county town, and took Lin Weizhong, Wei Songbai, and Li Yao to Wan Tongsheng's bookstore to study the real questions together.

Although they had done a lot of real questions before, they still couldn't be careless about the current situation. "I think this exam will most likely be based on the disasters in recent years. I won't say too much, but there must be a question related to current affairs in an exam. Everyone should read more books, practice questions, and write some articles in advance."

Wan Tongsheng nodded and picked up a copy of the real test paper. In addition to the questions, Luo Hong also bought some highly scored articles so that everyone could refer to them. "Luo Shu, if we can get into the bookstore in the prefectural city, we can find more highly scored articles to read. The questions are similar, but the articles are different. The county is still a little behind."

"Yes, the bookstores here in the county don't even have many test questions for the backyard exam, let alone essays. No wonder there are so few people who pass the exam in the entire county."

"Yes, those who have the conditions will try their best to enter the provincial capital after passing the examination, or enter the more prosperous state capital. Some big families can go directly to the original capital. I also heard that the children of some big families can enter the Imperial College from birth. Alas..."

"That's too far-fetched! For ordinary people like us, it would take great luck to enter the Imperial College on our own. My current goal is to get a scholar title, expand the academy, and run it well. I will try to pass the imperial examination in the future."

Luo Hong knew that studying was difficult in ancient times. Although he often saw top scorers on TV, that was just a TV show. He was familiar with history, and Fan Jin's success in the imperial examination was an obvious and well-known story.

So at his age he is still willing to take the exam and give it a try. If he passes, that would be even better, but if he fails, he will be more calm.

"Well, we just have to do our best. The results will be announced in a few days. Regardless of whether we pass or not, and whether we can take the subsequent exams or not, we should prepare now. The knowledge we learn will be ours."

The time spent in study always passed quickly, and in a flash it was the day when the results were announced.

Qi Xin and Liu's mother packed the luggage for Luo Hong and the children, and Liu's father and Liu Hao drove a mule cart to the county town. The purchase of the household was given to Qu Dingliang and Chu Xiaolong.

Sun Zeyuan and Zhu Lei also worked behind Qu Dingliang. They had not been studying for a long time, and they had no experience in this area in their previous lives, so their academic performance was average, and they only studied science.

Under the imperial examination system dominated by eight-legged essays, poetry and songs, the two of them had absolutely no chance at all.

Before, they followed Liu's father to do things at home. Now that Liu's father is gone, they have to take over. Liu's father had consulted the two of them before, and they both said that they did not want to take the exam. It was true that they did not have the talent and could not concentrate. Lin Keyu was still young, and there would be no good results if he forced himself to study.

Now they just need to learn to read and write. They think that doing business in the future is not a big deal. With so many people in the family, it is impossible that the only way out is to take the imperial examination.

Huang Jun and Qi Xin were researching prescriptions and organizing some currently available surgical skills at home, and trying to compile them into a book.

A good memory is not as good as a bad pen. Write down everything you think of.

Most of the girls in the family were willing to learn. The older ones like Liu Xiaolu, Wei Honglian, Fang Chenxi, Liu Qianxue, and Sun Yaqing all followed to learn. The younger ones like Liu Xiaomei and Li Wan'er also followed behind happily every day when they had nothing to do.

The two little boys Fang Chenhao and Luo Junning have no one at home to teach them to read and write, and no one to play with them, so they just follow this group of older sisters.

Mrs. Li has been staying in the village. She is indeed old, and her main job is to take care of the children.

Father Liu explained the family affairs, mainly the men including Qu Dingliang. There were mostly women and children left at home, and the most important thing was to ensure the safety of the whole family.

"I will be away for a longer time this time, maybe a month at the shortest, or two months if I'm busy. Ask others to do anything you can do at home. I originally wanted to finish transplanting the sweet potatoes before leaving, but now it seems that the time is not right. I've told the village chief that when the villagers are done with their work, I'll ask them to do it for a few days. It's twelve cents a day, and with ten or so people, it will probably be done in three to five days."

Father Liu gave Mother Liu some instructions, and the two of them talked in whispers at the door for a long time.

"Got it. You have to be careful when you go there. You keep everything with Keyu. Nothing is more important than safety. Among you, only Liu Hao has good kung fu. I am really a little worried!"

"It's okay. It only takes two days to get to the capital city. We don't have to sleep on the streets. We can stay in the next county town. We are still short of manpower. When I come back, I will let Liu Hao free up to train some capable servants. Teach them some martial arts, so you don't have to worry about them when you go out in the future. Don't worry too much. We have been through so many hardships along the way. It can't be harder now than it was then. Go back quickly!"

Since they don't have any local people they can trust, they have to figure out everything on their own. They are just crossing the river by feeling the stones, after all, what is shown in a TV series is just a TV series.

And now they are living a real life.

Liu Hao drove the carriage and carried a group of people slowly towards the county town.

The gate of the county town was bustling with people, probably because the results were announced today, and many men in smart attire were entering the town.

There was already a long queue at the city gate, and by the time they paid the money and entered the city, it was already noon.

There is no rush to check the list, the list is there, it doesn't matter whether you check it early or late. Let's go fill our stomach first.

The carriage stopped in the yard behind Malatang. When Liu Caixia saw Liu's father and his friends coming, she ran over happily, "Dad, you're here. Congratulations!"

Father Liu immediately responded, "Have you sent someone to check the list?"

"Yes, yes. I sent someone to check early this morning. You all passed. You can prepare to go to the capital city with peace of mind."

"Lao Luo, hahaha, did you hear that? You all passed!"

"What's there to be happy about? If you can't even pass this exam, how can you take part in the next ones?"

"Alright, alright, Dad, go sit inside. The store is getting busy now, you guys can take a break. We don't need you to help, but lunch will have to wait a little while."
