Chapter 71
No matter how reluctant Wen Xiang was, Taoist Wuwei followed them back to Wenjia Village and entered their house.

Seeing Taoist Wuwei always staring at the baggage they brought back, Wen Xiang uncharacteristically opened it all in front of Taoist Wuwei, and then packed it slowly.

In addition to some food and clothing items in the baggage, Taoist Wuwei is most interested in those medicinal materials, ceramics, wooden boxes and so on. Obviously, those are not necessities of life. After all, he couldn't help asking Wendao again.

This time it was Wen Xiang's turn to answer: "We are helping the department store make toilet products to earn some handwork fees."

"Toiletries? What do you mean?"

"To make toothpaste."

"Toothpaste? What is it for?"

"Brush your teeth."

Taoist Wuwei was not used to Wen Xiang's sudden cooperation, so he continued to ask: "Then why do you make this toothpaste?"

"It was passed down from our ancestors."

Good guy, one sentence kills the sky.

Daoist Wuwei feels disappointed: I always feel that something is wrong, but I can’t tell, it’s like you think you’ve dug up a treasure, but when you open it, there are only a few copper coins inside. That kind of strong psychological gap makes people unable to tell what it is taste.

Did I go in the wrong direction by chasing the siblings?Could it be that the ancestral formula is the treasure of destiny?
Even if it is, can they sell it to themselves?
Based on the little girl's attitude towards him, he dared to say [-]% that she would never sell it to him.

That's all, that's all, let's go back and discuss it with my junior brother, it might be okay to beat people with money.

Now that he has figured out the "details" of the brothers and sisters of the Wen family, Taoist Wuwei has no interest in learning how to make "fried potato chips", so he just took a few potato chips and left.

Wen Xiang proudly watched Taoist Wuwei's back gradually go away: "Small, fight with me? My ten truths are mixed with two lies. Let me see how you can tell the difference, hahaha!"

Wen said: "Little sister, is it okay for you to fool the Taoist priest like this?"

Wen Xiang: "Very good."

Hearing this, he was speechless.

Taoist Wuwei was finally sent away, and the Wenxiang brothers and sisters could finally sit down and have a heart-to-heart talk.

There was a bill of 500 taels in the middle of the table. The brother and sister sat facing each other, and the atmosphere was a bit serious.

"What do you think, big brother?"

"You earned the money back, so you should say what you think first." Wen Dao fully respected her sister's rights.

"My idea is that since our family is rich, my eldest brother should stop farming. How about continuing to study and get a good name?"

Hearing my sister bring up the old story of studying again, I felt very uncomfortable when I heard the news. I felt that the scars in my heart were being uncovered again and again, and a burst of sadness and bitterness came to my heart immediately, and the whole person became dejected:
"Well, it's not that I don't want to study, it's just that I'm born stupid. It's just a futile effort and a waste of family money."

When it comes to exams, Wen Xiang in her previous life has been battle-tested and battle-tested, and she has never seen a hail of bullets. Let’s not talk about being the first in the exam, it’s always no problem to pass the exam.

In fact, from Wen Xiang’s point of view, all exams in the world are based on the same principle. It’s nothing more than practice makes perfect, stupid birds fly first, hard work can make up for one’s weakness, reading more, writing more, learning more and practicing more. My eldest brother always loses his reputation. It must be because he didn’t master the study method well.

"Brother, tell me first, what kind of regulations are there for this matter of studying and taking exams?"

Therefore, Wen Dao gave Wen Xiang a good introduction: the knowledge points about the promotion channels of the Yongjia Dynasty's life.

The Yongjia Dynasty has only a short history of more than 100 years, and it can be regarded as an upstart in terms of dynasty development.

Since it is an upstart, it naturally has a thriving momentum.

First of all, in terms of governance, it is still relatively clear. Although the emperor Laozi can't be said to be very civilized and military, he still does his job so-so, except for cultivating Taoism, everything else is justified.

The struggle in the court mainly comes from three major factions, namely: civil servants, military officials, and Taoist priests.

These three forces form the horns of each other, and no one looks down on the other. Fighting openly and secretly is inevitable. Sometimes they are at odds, and sometimes they work together. This perfectly embodies the truth that there are no permanent enemies, but only permanent interests.

As far as the emperor is concerned, he likes his subordinates to have their own factions and supervise each other; if something bad happens, all the shit is caused, and they stab each other, how good and cool it is.

Second, the bureaucracy has not collapsed, and people's lives still have hope.Although there is great corruption and corruption, it is not yet the time when the sky is angry and the people complain.

Every year, the higher-ups will always find out a few people to make an example of others, and by the way set a model and calm the anger of the people, it depends on who is unlucky.

Therefore, those who do not have a deep background had better work honestly, otherwise you will be the next person to be used to sacrifice the flag.

I won’t talk about petty greed, it can’t be completely eradicated.

The fastest, fairest, and most promising channel for people at the bottom to escape class constraints is, of course, to pass the three tests (county test, government test, general test), gain fame and fame, and become a person who eats the emperor's food. From then on, they can solve the problem of food and clothing and live a decent life life.

In addition to the three test passages, there is another way of life that is the way of meditation.

Obtaining the certificate issued by Yongle Palace and becoming a Taoist priest is another choice in life, at least you don't have to worry about three meals.

Of course, if you want to become a Taoist priest, you don’t have to go to the Taoist temple and kneel down and beg a few times. First, you need to get an ID card—that is, a degree certificate.

If you don’t have a degree certificate, you are a black household. The Taoist temple does not recognize it, and the government does not recognize it. Moreover, once a fake Taoist priest is caught, you will be fined 50 taels. If you can’t pay the money, you will be fined and your property will be confiscated.

Therefore, ordinary people dare not pretend to be Taoists at will.

So is it easy to get the ultimatum?It is not difficult to say, easy is not easy.There is a fixed number of degrees issued by Yongle Palace every year, and they are distributed directly to Taoist temples, and then distributed to individuals by Taoist temples.

The number of degrees that each Taoist temple can get varies, and it all depends on the ability and personal charm of the temple master to report to Yongle Palace.

Some powerful viewers can get a certificate every year, while some street hunters can't get one for several years. It's really hard to explain all the tricks.

In short, the degree of ultimatum is earned by the master through untold hardships, and it must be used wisely.

For example, if it is used on a seedling who is related to the party, has a talent for cultivation, or is beneficial to the development and growth of Taoism, it is absolutely impossible to waste it on an ordinary mediocre person who just wants to make a living.

In short, cultivating Taoism is a game for the rich and powerful, and an ordinary person should not expect to become a Taoist priest.

No matter how Wen Xiang looked at it, she didn't think that she or her brother had the ability to cultivate the truth. It is impossible to cultivate the Tao, so let's think about the third test channel.

The subjects of the third test are divided into three categories and fourteen sub-subjects, namely Wen Jing, Wu Jing, and Ming Jing.

The classics here are the most difficult, as they are about policy theory and political opinions and current affairs; the classics of martial arts, you need to wield swords and guns; the classics of Ming Dynasty are the simplest, mainly about arts, science and laws, as long as you have a good memory, you have a high chance of passing .

But he heard the Tao but wanted to challenge the classics. No wonder he has been defeated repeatedly. The poor man only went to ordinary private schools. He neither mastered the tactics of the sea of ​​questions, nor had he been baptized by the real questions over the years. sluggish.

As for the martial arts, I heard that this small body may not be at the bottom of the list, so it's better not to make a fool of yourself.

From this point of view, the Mingjing should be a good choice, why do you want to smash the Wenjing after hearing the Tao?
