I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

After a lively Spring Festival, the Dahua Empire entered the second year of Yongxing.

After the Lantern Festival, people started to get busy again.

Major factories have started work one after another, and some have even started work after the third day of the new year.

Many factories have posted new recruitment notices and are hiring crazily.

After all, in the new year, almost all factories have expansion plans.

However, they don't have to worry about finding someone.

Because there are a large number of people who came to Nanjing for their dreams and to seek a life.

At the same time, the imperial examinations for the second year of Yongxing officially started.

The first is the academy exam, and all those who have read books and can read are eligible to take this exam.

However, each candidate needs to pay a tael of silver.

This is not to make money from candidates, but to exclude some people who want to join in the fun.

In fact, it takes a lot of money to hold the imperial examination. Everyone who receives a tael of silver is at a loss, and the Ministry of Rites also needs to give some subsidies.

There are many places for the college examination, Songjiang, Suzhou, Changzhou, Jiujiang...  

In every large city, there will be one or more examination rooms, which are mainly determined by the number of local candidates.

There are only four subjects in the hospital examination, of which policy questions are compulsory, and the other three subjects are optional.

As long as you enter, you can get the name of a scholar.

With a scholar and fame, you can participate in the next township examination.

A scholar can receive a little relief from the government every month, which is already a good status.

On the 16th, the first round of the academy examination, the policy theory department.

In the Nanjing examination room, a total of 5,000 people participated in the hospital examination, which is a very large number.

Scholars below Xiucai need to take the academy exam to get the Xiucai before they can participate in the next stage of the township examination.

Outside the examination room, several scholars were still reading books while they were waiting to enter the room.

"Brother Wang, it's too late for you to crawl now."

A scholar joked.

Wang Ziyue closed the book and said, "I'm not worried about Ce Wen, but I'm worried about the next three subjects."

"Which three subjects did Brother Wang choose?"

Li Gongzi asked.

"Articles, arithmetic, and geography. I don't know much about geography. Those so-called longitude and latitude are completely confused."

Wang Ziyue said.

He is confident in the eight-part essay, and after some hard work in arithmetic, he also understands seventy-seven-eighty-eighty.

It is those physical chemistry, because he has a short time to study, he is not very proficient for the time being. In desperation, he chose a geography that relied on reciting memory.

However, geography also contains some relatively profound knowledge, which cannot be relied on by rote memorization alone.

"I really don't understand what's the use of learning this."

Another scholar echoed, and he was also very repulsive of those new types of knowledge.

"You don't understand this. You need to use this knowledge of longitude and latitude when you go to sea. In the vast sea, only by longitude and latitude can you determine the location and route."

Li Gongzi showed off before learning.

"We don't go overseas to do business, what's the use of learning this?"

The man continued to raise the bar.

During the debate, the entrance to the examination hall was opened, and candidates began to enter the venue, taking their seats according to the examination number.

At the beginning of the test, there are five questions in total, and candidates can choose three questions to answer, with a full score of 300.

Of course, those who think they are awesome and want to show off their talents can also answer all of them, but no extra points will be added.

For those who answer all five questions, only the three questions with the highest scores will be counted.

It seems to be pretty good, but in fact the effect is far less than concentrating time and energy to pick three good questions to answer.

The first topic discusses the advantages and disadvantages of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce.

This question tests the students' understanding of agriculture and business. After all, the future development of Dahua will always be able to avoid this question.

If you don't have any constructive opinions on this issue, you will be embarrassed in the future.

The second question is about science and technology as the primary productive force.

This question tests the level of understanding of the current society. If you look at the changes in Dahua today, you will not realize the huge role of science and technology. Such people are not worthy of being called talents, and naturally they must be eliminated.

The third question is about the blindness of business.

This question is about business insights, but it is one of the points.

In the current Dahua court, there are many traditional officials, but there are very few officials who understand the economy.

Such a question was added to the exam to tell candidates the importance of understanding the economy.

The fourth question has materials. There was a plague in a certain place. The government ordered a reward for the people to kill the rats.

This question tests the students' understanding of human nature. Some people are very smart in reading, but they are pedantic and rigid, and they are also unusable.

Just like the official who offered a reward to kill rodents in the material, he didn't understand human nature or society.

Catching a mouse is not easy, after all mice are very agile and vigilant. But raising a litter of mice is extremely simple.

In order to obtain greater benefits, people often do some strange things.

Officials who do not understand human nature often do bad things with good intentions.

Question 5 also contains material. Official A of a steel plant is embezzled and bribery, but he works diligently for fear of exposure, resulting in outstanding performance.

The official B is clean and honest, and thinks that his morals are high and he wastes court funds at will, and his performance is extremely poor.

Discuss the difference between the two and discuss the solution.

This question tests students' understanding of being an official, and how to be an official is the most correct one.

There are many minefields in this question, whether it is to support corruption, or to criticize corruption excessively, it is not a good answer. If you can't answer this question well, you have little hope of becoming an official.

The most sensible choice is to avoid this question and not answer it. Either way, it's easy to get it wrong.

These five questions are not easy, and they can be used to test the champion.

But this is not important, anyway, it is not difficult for a single person.

Don't ask how good you are, as long as you are better than others.

Wang Ziyue looked at the first question, and immediately had a bitter face.

The problem of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce is too profound, and his only knowledge cannot support him to write a coherent opinion.

However, he knows how to do tricks.

Daming pursued the principle of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business, Zhu Yuanzhang especially hated businessmen, but Dahua pursued to encourage business.

That's easy to handle, talk about the drawbacks of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business, and insisting on encouraging business is right. This is called political correctness.

The second question, on science and technology is the primary productive force, is often discussed in this newspaper.

He, who often reads newspapers, also has some experience with this question and can answer it.

The third question, looking at him with a dazed expression, skipped it.

The fifth question, not easy to answer, give up.

In the end, Wang Ziyue chose to answer questions one, two and four.

The choices of other candidates are also relatively close.

The number of people who answered the fifth question was the least, and the number of people who answered the second question was the most.

Three questions, three hours of test time, you can stop to eat in the middle, and the test room will provide food during lunch.

They are all pickled vegetables and steamed buns, just like that, you don't need to make them too delicate, you can satisfy your hunger.
