The issue of tea tax in Quzhou is actually not a secret. There was a big incident a few years ago. If they paid more attention to it, this problem would not be impossible to solve.
There is also the problem of civil unrest in the southwestern city. It seems confusing, but it is also easy to solve.
It is said to be related to copper prices.
The local area was originally prosperous, but later a local official came. Because the government was so far away, the local official was all-powerful. In order to cater to the court's move to make coins, he forced the people to sell copper to make coins. Unfortunately, he did not control it well, which resulted in the local area being difficult to distinguish between real and fake copper coins. The coins circulated everywhere, and a huge amount of copper coins entered the market and fell into the hands of the people. Later, the local government refused to acknowledge it, resulting in those copper coins being thrown away like waste, destroying the local people's livelihood and causing chaos.
It seems that the test is about old things, but it has to be said that if they want to be officials, they have to understand the content of these questions.
I just didn’t expect…
This Xiao Qillang is so cunning!
Everyone had a bitter face.
Over there, the teachers have already started grading the papers.
They weren't so far off as to cheat. Now, looking at the papers and the dismal answers, they sighed. Those taking the exam were merely students or scholars. Scholars were okay, knowing a little more, but how could students possibly know about things like copper prices and civil unrest?!
The teachers were very upset, but they didn't want to blame Xiao Cunyu for setting bad questions.
If it were someone like Xiao Guantang, these one hundred questions would not be difficult for him at all. Even if there was a candidate who came forward, it would not have been like this... total annihilation.
"Look at what these guys from Wanjun Academy wrote..." the teachers sighed.
At this moment, Xiao Guantang had been pulled over to correct the test papers. Upon hearing this, he stretched his head to take a look.
Very surprised.
"They can answer about half of the questions we asked, but the ones Xiao Qilang asked..." They were speechless, "There are very few that they can't answer..."
"You don't regret it, do you?" Xiao Cunyu grinned, "A gentleman is trustworthy. There's no point in regretting it."
"Have you taught them in advance?" The teacher couldn't help but doubt.
"That's how narrow-minded you are. Do you think I can predict it? The students in our Wanjun Academy don't have a very good foundation, but they are all hardworking. They care about the people and understand their livelihood. They are different from you who just bury your heads in study." Xiao Cunyu looked at everyone's answers and was very satisfied.
Zhou Jingmao's test paper was especially surprising to him.
Zhuang Jiu is an old hand at playing the pig to eat the tiger, so getting full marks is a must.
Zhou Jingmao is definitely a rising star. His efforts during this period have really not been in vain. Even the questions asked by the teachers, he can answer 80% to 90% of them.
Xiao Cunyu was extremely proud.
The teachers hope that there will be talents that satisfy them in the next test papers.
It took a long time to correct these one hundred papers. It was not until the sun was setting that they were finally completed and even the scores were arranged.
The students still had some hope, thinking that if they themselves couldn't answer it, how could the dandy from Wanjun Academy possibly know it?
And judging from the situation during the fight, the people from Wanjun Academy probably didn't get the answer in advance, so it's impossible for them to do better than them.
Wang Zhixue's expression was very solemn.
He had the papers distributed, and in his hand was still the "transcript" registered by Xiao Cunyu, which was trembling slightly.
The questions that Xiao Cunyu tested on were not necessarily ones that had been taught in their academy, but few people took them seriously.
