Chapter 140
After returning from the capital, Fu Wenyu devoted himself to studying.
He gained a lot from this trip to the capital.
During his two-month stay, in addition to communicating and learning with scholars and candidates in the capital, Fu Wenyu also collected the real questions from the provincial examinations, general examinations, and imperial examinations in the capital over the years, as well as the outstanding test papers of those senior candidates, and communicated with Huainan Dao over the years. Comparative analysis of the provincial examination questions was fruitful.
So after returning to Liuzhou, he put aside all his writing, directing drama rehearsals, and participating in the management of hot spring resorts and amusement parks, and devoted himself wholeheartedly to reviewing for the provincial examination.
After the "Yushan Academy" for scholars jointly founded by Liuzhou, Jiangzhou and Anzhou opened, he moved in and became a classmate with other scholars, communicating and learning from each other.
Hu Zhizhou and Muzhizhou did not lie. As expected, they hired some unofficial scholars from Sanzhou and other state capitals to be their masters. Even the two of them would occasionally come to give lectures. Over the past few months, Fu Wenyu and others had benefited a lot.
Therefore, in the provincial examination held in the second year, the three states gained a lot.
The three prefectures were not conspicuous in the previous provincial examinations of Huainan Road. In the past, the three prefectures combined could only pass three to five exams. But thanks to the teachings of the two magistrates and other teachers, a total of ten people passed the examination this year, and the results were very obvious. Among them, Fu Wenyu received a good ranking even though it was his first time to take part in the provincial examination.
And those who also passed the provincial examination were Jiangzhou Ji Xiucai and other scholars who had held literary conferences before. In addition to Fu Wenyu from Liuzhou, Qiong Xiucai and another Li Xiucai are also on the list.
There are three candidates in one subject. This is the best news in Liuzhou’s provincial examination in the past twenty years.
So after the news came out, the whole Liuzhou was boiling.
Min Xiucai, who usually lived idle and felt that he had never saved a life in his life, did not take part in the provincial examination. However, after hearing the news, he ran to Fu's house to borrow books and vowed to study hard and practice hard.
He said excitedly: "Wen Yu, Fu Juren! Hahaha, because I have no way to study in Liuzhou, and I don't want to leave home. I originally thought that I would never be able to meet Juren in this life,"
“I never thought there would be Yushan Academy!”
"Although I didn't take the provincial examination, I gained a lot during those days in the academy. So Wen Yu, you lent me your book to copy. When I pass the examination, my daughter will be the daughter of the master of the examination."
"From now on, it will be delicious and spicy!"
Fu Wenyu was amused for a while. He turned out the real questions he had compiled and gave them to him and said, "Could it be that because you failed the exam, you can't let your daughter have a good life? I remember that your family is outside the city and has hundreds of acres of land."
Min Xiucai shook his head seriously, "That's different!"
He sighed: "There is a difference between a scholar and a scholar. Just look at Xie Juren and Liu Juren. Let's not talk about Liu Juren. His family has been scholarly for generations and has no shortage of money at all. But Xie Juren used to be a scholar. When he was Xie Xiucai, he still wore patched clothes, but do you think he is short of money now? "
"There are only poor scholars, not poor scholars. After you pass the exam, you won't have to pay taxes on the land at home. You will save a lot of money this year, and you can also find a place to sit."
"This has many benefits."
Fu Wenyu naturally knew that there would be many benefits after passing the exam. Even if the Liu family was in the way, there would still be people trying to get involved in the business of Liuzhou Hot Spring Villa and Amusement Park. But after he passed the exam, these people immediately stopped talking. Not to mention it, and even sent an apology.
This is the benefit of improving social status.
"and……"
Min Xiucai glanced at Fu Wenyu and said, "Do you remember Sun Xiucai and Chen Xiucai?"
"Sun Xiucai and Chen Xiucai?" Fu Wenyu thought about it for a moment, then remembered who these two people were, "Are you talking about the Sun Xiucai who made a bet with me before, and the nonsense-talking Chen Lang?"
Of these two people, one of them lost a bet with him and never wrote a story again. The other one slandered him without any basis and gossiped about him. Of course, he killed both of them.
"Yes, yes, that's them."
Seeing Fu Wenyu remembering it, Min Xiucai said: "After you came back from Jiangzhou, you either went to the capital, or you immersed yourself in studying at home or in the academy, and you didn't show up much in Liuzhou. So I don't know that Sun Xiucai has started writing again. It’s true, but Chen Xiucai was divorced by the Qiong family, right?”
In his confused eyes, Min Xiucai explained, "Because Sun Xiucai changed his name and let someone else take the lead, everyone didn't know it was him at first, and they thought his words were good. But Chen Xiucai was After the Qiong family broke off the engagement, they refused to give up and came to the door several times, which made the Qiong family quite annoyed. "
"But now you have passed the exam, and Qiong Xiucai has also passed the exam, so one of them was rejected by the bookstore who knew the details, and the other went to the Qiong family to apologize but was kicked out."
"What a joy!"
Is there such a thing?
Fu Wenyu really doesn't know this, because these two people have long been considered 'irrelevant' to him. He will neither suppress them again nor pay attention to how they are doing now.
I didn't expect that there would be such a follow-up, nor did I expect that after I passed the exam, it would have such an indirect impact. So he smiled and said: "It's their own fault."
"Yes, they are the ones to blame."
Min Xiucai nodded, and at the same time he was also feeling emotional in his heart, thinking that when he was in Jiangzhou, he really did the right thing by going to Fu Wenyu that day.
If he hadn't taken this step, how could he have the face to come to his door today?
After sending Min Xiucai away, Fu Wenyu returned to the study.
In just a short while, the matter of Sun Xiucai and Chen Xiucai had faded from his mind. However, he still got some inspiration from it and planned to take time to write a plan.
This plan is about Fujia Village, Hot Spring Villa, and Amusement Park, because after passing the imperial examination, he plans to move to the capital for the convenience of studying, and Zhou and Fu Rong will go with him, and the number of times he will come back to Liuzhou will become less and less in the future.
In this case, a good plan can solve some problems very well.
For example, for the one for the amusement park, Fu Wenyu wrote more program content, more program formats, and a new sequel to "Collection of Scams". At the same time, he also planned to use the platform of "Liuzhou Tabloid" to hold an "essay solicitation" activity every year, and select the scripts suitable for rehearsal into dramas.
In this way, even if he no longer writes in the future, it will not cause any impact.
As for Fujia Village, according to the results of his previous discussion with Fu Wencheng, farming is still the main focus. Others, such as the martial arts team and the drama team, only carry out activities during the slack season.
This is to maintain the identity of "farming and reading to pass on the family" and prevent the whole village from falling into the "music register".
Now that Fujia Village has him, a juren, and two scholars, Fu Minghui and Zou Xiucai, this heavy insurance is more solid, even if the governor of Liuzhou in the future is no longer Hu Buqi, there is no need to worry.
After writing the plan, he began to arrange it one by one.
There is no need to give more instructions to Fujia Village, and since he redeemed those who worked for the Li family in Jiangzhou, the servants of Xiaoganzhuang have been loyal to him and don't need to worry much. As for the hot spring villa and the amusement park, Fu Wenyu's original plan was to hand them over to Liu Changmiao for management.
But Liu Changmiao was unwilling, he also wanted to go to the capital.
When Fu Wenyu talked to him about this, he said directly: "Mr. Fu, Liuzhou has been open for more than a year, and the managers are familiar with it. It doesn't matter whether I am there or not. So I also plan to go to the capital, and come back once every one or two months. The others have managers."
"My father also agreed."
Since Liu Changmiao said so, Fu Wenyu adjusted the plan.
So in the end, the three members of the Fu family and Liu Changmiao went to the capital together. The fields that Tang Yuanwai had given before, and the silk and satin shop bought from Li Xin's mother and daughter, were handed over to the trusted managers. As for the velvet material processing workshop in Fujia Village, it continued to exist, but for the long-term consideration, a part of the shares were sold to the villagers.
When everything was handled, it was already the end of September.
The family set off for Beijing.
The last time the family came to Beijing, Fu Wenyu bought a three-story house for the convenience of living, so this time the family of three moved to this house.
The Fu family didn't have many relatives in Beijing, but they had a few friends.
Therefore, after settling down, Fu Wenyu handed out invitations to people he knew, inviting them to come and warm up the house.
The first invitation was of course sent to the general's mansion. Regardless of whether the Zhenbei Marquis family came or not, the Fu family's courtesy was always there. After all, whether it was Zhou and Li Niangzi, or Fu Wenyu's brother and sister and Li Xin's friendship had not changed. Since the friendship was still there, such a big thing as moving had to be notified.
Then came the brothers Liu Changyan and Liu Changmiao, who also came from Liuzhou, Liao Xuelin, Rong Jie and Lan Yutian who cooperated to open the Beijing Amusement Park, and Gong Wenbin from the Beijing tabloid, people who had met during the previous few visits to Beijing, officials who passed the exams from Liuzhou, Fu Wenyu's classmates who happened to be in Beijing, neighbors on both sides, and so on.
After these invitations were sent out, some people came in person, and some did not come but sent gifts.
On the day, Fu Wenyu looked around, looking at the serious-looking Zhenbei Marquis, Liu Changyan, Liu Changmiao, Liao Xuelin and others who seemed a little reserved after discovering the arrival of Zhenbei Marquis, as well as Li Xin and her daughter, the eldest young lady of the Liu family and others who were being entertained by his mother and sister in the backyard. He felt that the Fu family was really different from when he first crossed over.
"I toast to everyone."
He raised his glass and drank it all.
The next year, Fu Wenyu passed the imperial examination.
