Chapter 2132 Official newspaper Yamen

  A scholar who knew him bought it, and praised him with a smile: "What brother Xu said is very true. This is good news. Those who are ambitious should naturally give it a try."

  Xu Chan was complimented, but she didn't smile much, just casually picked up the jug, took another sip, and sat by the railing of the restaurant, quite casually.

Although he became a Jinshi at eighteen, when he traveled abroad and returned to Beijing, his family helped plan an official position. Unexpectedly, he was demoted because he didn't want to agree with his boss. Now he has been away for many years, and he was 28. There is nothing to show for his knowledge.

  Self-confidence when he was young, after going through all kinds of life, he only saw the pedantry under the light of the court, and talent may not be able to develop his ambitions, and now only resentment and dissatisfaction remain.

  Why can he only drink to vent his anger like today, and has been doing nothing.

  Many similar situations were staged in various parts of Dachu.

  Because Juren in many places are all in their hometowns, far away. If they want to come here, some people even have to walk for two months on the road.

  So Chu Heng and Mr. Zhong Ge made a plan and prepared two exams, one was the examination for candidates, and the other was the examination for Jinshi.

   There is no other way. To do things, we have to strike while the iron is burning. We can’t really wait two months before starting the exam. This official newspaper can be established as quickly as possible.

   But Chu Heng can only do the next best thing, select some people first, and organize the official newspaper.

Of course.

  The main reason is that most of the Jinshi-born people are in the capital, and only a very small number are in other places.

   It is also possible to screen out some office workers first.

   It took Chu Heng two days to come up with the exam questions.

   Go to Mr. Zhong Ge and pass the test questions to him.

   "How?" Chu Heng waited for the other party to finish reading, then put it away, and stuffed it into his sleeve.

  He is not worried about leaking the question, and it is necessary to discuss it with Mr. Zhong Ge.

  The reason for not disclosing the questions is also that the questions he asked were originally only to test the ability and temper of these Jinshi Juren.

  Literary literacy is secondary.

   To be admitted to Jinshi, the literary quality must be good, but the content of the official newspaper must be simplified, otherwise ordinary people will not understand it at all. If most people cannot understand it, then it is impossible to make money.

  He still hopes that the official newspaper can make a profit, so that it can go in the long run.

"Ziqiu's questions are a little interesting. I'm worried that these people are too pedantic, unable to accept innovative things, and not courageous enough, so they are prone to trouble." Zhong Ge has been an official for many years. The meaning of the question.

   It seems that they are not selecting officials, but practical talents.

"That's right." Chu Heng nodded, not denying his intentions. He also wanted to get Mr. Zhong Ge to work together. If there is a dispute, it's better to talk about it now. Otherwise, when the official newspaper is established, there will be conflicts at that time, just to let outsiders see It's a joke.

   "Okay, let's take the test like this."

   "Then the exam will start in the afternoon."

  Chu Heng did not give a specific time for the exam, but only said that it would be two days.

  Old Zhong Ge heard the words, touched his beard, and followed him to the yamen assigned by the official newspaper.

  It is said to be a yamen, but it is actually a yard close to other government yamen. It is a yard from the household part. It is not big, but it is enough to establish a newspaper office.

   There are six side rooms on both sides of the courtyard and three main rooms.

  Chu Heng had already called the soldiers from the Ministry of War to come and clean up.

   Even the sign of the official newspaper was hung on the door.
