Chapter 963 Exam Questions
Xiao Shi and Song Qingge said that the rules for the selection of imperial merchants are different every year. It can be said that there are all kinds of strange things. They are all set by the current emperor, and they can only be opened on the day of the selection. No one will know in advance.

If it is leaked, the person in charge will be held accountable, and the consequences will be serious.

In previous years' selection, after passing the literary talent test, each person wrote a poem and handed it in, and the one that the Holy Majesty thought was the best was Huang Shang.

I also asked strange questions, such as how many eggs a hen can lay at most in a day. Many people expressed their opinions, and the answers were varied. In the end, one answer was selected because it was very honest.

Of course, there are also strengths to win.

Let all the participating shopkeepers come with the cashier, and invite bids on the spot, and the one with the highest price will win.

In short, no one knows what problems will arise today, and it is useless to worry about them now.

The twelve shopkeepers who appeared didn't seem nervous, they sat in the seats prepared in advance, waiting for this year's "examination questions".

The selection method is too different, so it is called an examination question by these businessmen.

"Treasurer Mo, your poem last year was really wonderful. If you are taking the poetry test this year, we will be willing to bow down."

"How can we guess the holy will? Last year, I took the poetry composition test. I'm afraid I won't be able to do it this year. Maybe we may not be able to paint on the spot. Shopkeeper Wang is the best at it."

"No way? I specially practiced poetry for a year today. I heard from the south that the exam questions this year are the same as last year."

"..."

Before Zhou Jingrui appeared, everyone sat and chatted together.

Except for Song Qingge and Shao Qing, it was not the first time for the others to participate in the selection.

Shao Qingchang was chatting with the Patriarch of the Li family. Although the two families competed secretly, they had a good relationship on the surface, and they were also discussing what would happen this year.

Song Qingge glanced over there, but she knew that both the Li family and the Xiao family belonged to that alliance.

As for the test questions, she really hoped to write poems in the test. Just based on the poems in her mind, she could write a few casually and amaze the world.

But if it was painting, Song Qingge felt that she had no chance of winning at all. She and Dabao were neither good at it, unless Dabao was put into a coma and a man came out instead.

In the anticipation of everyone, Zhou Jingrui and Sun Zhifu finally appeared, holding a letter sealed with wax oil in Zhou Jingrui's hands, which contained the "examination questions" for this selection.

"All shopkeepers have been waiting for a long time, now let the fourth prince announce the rules for this year."

Sun Zhifu smiled and pushed Zhou Jingrui out, but he couldn't help looking at Xiao Jinyi.

Today's Xiao Jinyi is wearing an ordinary black brocade robe, with curiosity and a hint of nervousness in his eyes, he really wants to go to the capital, and wants Song Qingge to be chosen, and he is a little different from yesterday.

And he was so innocent and direct, in the eyes of Sun Zhifu, he became a fool.

Zhou Jingrui didn't have any nonsense, he opened the package in front of everyone, took out the paper inside, and read out the contents above.

"..."

After listening to the rules this time, the corners of Song Qingge's mouth twitched. She really wanted to meet that emperor. How childish would she be to think of such a way.

Looking for something!
On a mountain outside the city, the emperor had already found someone to bury an item. Twelve people went up the mountain to search together. Whoever found it first would be the emperor merchant for next year.

It may also be expected that the participating shopkeepers are different in physical strength and age, and they are allowed to bring one person up the mountain, otherwise Shao Qingchang, the oldest, can be eliminated directly...
