Chapter 600
Zuo Fu fought a price war with the country gentry, which soon attracted the attention of the government and the opposition.

And a group of ordinary people didn't know what the tricks were, they just frantically flocked into Huimin Supermarket to buy rice.

So in the past two days, we can see some strange scenes: there is a long queue in front of Huimin Supermarket, but it will soon dissipate, and everyone will gather in the shop run by the squire to grab rice.

After Zuo Fu lowered the grain price to 300 Wen, the country gentry did not dare to move for the time being, and only dared to lower the grain price to 300 Wen.After seeing Zuo Fu, he immediately dropped another 50 Wen.

Now the squires are going to frown.

300 Wen is already their bottom line, and if it goes down, there is really no profit.

Why don't you wait and see?
Let's see how long she can sell her rice for 250 pax a stone!

They quickly came up with a policy of keeping the price unchanged but limiting purchases per person, and publicized the news of the ultra-low price rice in Huimin Supermarket in the whole city, trying to attract people from the whole city and even the satellite villages outside the city. Come here and crush Zoffre with this.

They still don't believe it!

If Zuofu can go on like this, how much money and how much rice does she have to fill the hole?
These people are irrational. Seeing such cheap rice, why don't they hoard it like crazy?
Even with blood transfusions from Changzhou and Qiongzhou, how long can she last?

Zuo Fu looked at these people's coquettish operations, couldn't help laughing, and said: I'm sorry, I have golden thighs, I can last as long as I want, unless Time and Space TB is closed.

But that is impossible.

Doesn't Time and Space TB promote itself like this?

The earth does not explode, and TB does not shut down.

Therefore, when this battle will start and when it will end is up to Zuo Fu!

It's only 250 pennies a stone, and it's sold to the end!

Only by letting you get nothing on the land will you give up your greed for land!

Huimin Supermarket began to be full, and countless villagers flocked to Nanjing after hearing the news, and Zuo Fu also sent a large number of personal guards to maintain order.

After ten days like this, seeing that there is still a steady stream of rice entering Huimin Supermarket, a group of people are anxious, but they can't help but think to themselves: Is it almost the same?If you can hold on for a few more days, you won't be able to hold on, right?Put the news out again, put it in other counties, and then attract more people to see how long she can last!
Zuo Fu didn't bother to pay attention to these mentally handicapped, she was busy.

Three days after receiving Zuo Fu's oral letter, Zhang Limin was dismissed because he hadn't gone to the county school for too long and lost his eligibility as a granary student, so he was dismissed.

This reason is a bit far-fetched.

Because of Enke, he naturally had to come to Nanjing to take the provincial examination, and it was normal not to go to the county school.

But Sun Houye won't tell you this, if you want you to die in the third watch, you will die in the third watch. Do you need any reason to crush you to death?It is enough to calculate Zov's point.

Moreover, using such a reason is also intentional, just to let you know, don't think that there are a few tricks in your stomach, and you can do whatever you want if you cling to An Shanhou.

It's not your turn to get involved in the game of Ming Dynasty officials!
Zhang Limin was trembling with anger, but facing the power, there was nothing he could do, even his teacher Shan Qian could do nothing about it.

Although he could come forward to intercede, but because the household registration files of several maidservants were in Zuo Fu's hands, he didn't dare to act rashly.

What made him even more desperate was that within two days, all the people under his wife's control were taken away by Zuo Fu.The person he sent to guard was directly killed on the charge of human trafficking.

Such a vicious and decisive method really frightened him a lot.

Kill as soon as you say, without any scruples, he is no better than a fart in her eyes.

Moreover, this charge is quite justifiable, because those people were indeed held hostage. In a sense, Zuo Fu really didn't press the charge randomly, and the killing was really justified.

This time, he lost again.

What's more, what made him even more desperate was that Zhang Limin had to return home immediately. If he stayed here again, if people saw him, especially Zuo Fu, he might make a big fuss again.

After all, what is it for you, Marquis Anshan, to take in a person who has been expelled?In particular, this person's name was pointed out by several "framed" maidservants, and it was not an option to hide Zhang Limin for a long time, so he had to give some money to let him go home.

Now it's interesting.

Originally, he wanted to fight for fame and future, but not only did he fail to win, but he also lost his fame as a scholar. In the end, he only got 200 taels of silver and let it go.

On the day Zhang Limin left Nanjing, he looked at the majestic Nanjing city for a long time, his eyes were red as if they were about to bleed.

Is this the power of power?
Zoff, you are so cruel!
But what's the use of hating?People who have been expelled from their ranks are also looked down upon when they return to their hometowns.Now he is completely white again, and a person who has been expelled can no longer start a career. Except for the 200 taels of silver and a house at home, he really has nothing.

This is the fate of offending Zuo Fu.

She won't kill people indiscriminately and take your life, but what she does can make people take their own lives!

At this time, he couldn't help thinking of his classmates and friends.

Before coming to join Marquis An Shan, his friend had persuaded him not to come, as soon as he came, he would be involved in the struggle between the Shan family and the Zuo family, and he would become a victim in the end.

But he didn't listen, he felt that his brain was good enough to deal with it.But at this moment, thinking about what his friend said, he suddenly realized.

It turns out that in this world, in front of some people, no matter how tricky you are, it's useless, because they are too powerful to crush you directly, without any reason.

The reality of Chi Lu almost broke his emotions. He stared blankly at Nanjing City, and then tears dripped down unconsciously.

He became an abandoned son, and the Zhang family who had always been kind to him and his mentor who relied on him did not fight for him, and they gave up directly without even struggling.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing.

The laughter gradually became louder, gradually becoming crazy, and then with tears on his face, hatred and regret in his heart, he left sadly.

Xiao Se's back was concealed by the majestic walls of Nanjing City.

In the center field of this fame and fortune competition, there is no place for Zhang Limin, he is just a joke.

Wang Yougen was sent back, Zhao Qing left Nanjing with his girlfriend and wife, and the Zhuang family was restricted from going to Lujia Village and seeing Lu Chan'er, otherwise they would be punished with [-] boards if they were caught once, and they would be beaten to death!

This is equivalent to the forced isolation of later generations.

Facing Zuo Fu's decree, she didn't even have the courage to resist.

This rectification made her fully understand that on the three-acre land in Nanjing, as long as Zuo Fu is still an official, it is impossible for her to try to get her stepdaughter's idea.

Lu Chan'er, who heard the news, gave Zuo Fu a longevity tablet that day, and prayed in the morning and evening, only praying to God, may such a good official live a long life, step by step, and live in peace and health.

The turmoil of the show girl is now over.And other show girls were also selected one after another. As the day of Enke's examination approached, the show girls also arrived in the capital one after another. After going through a series of procedures, they entered the palace.

Within a few days, the emperor selected several women and named them Xianfei, Shufei, Zhuangfei and Jingfei respectively.

In addition, several women were named talents, beauties, and Jieyu.

The empress and concubine system in Ming Dynasty has many levels, talents, beauties, and Jieyu are already subordinates.

As for the selection of servants, ladies or something...

That is really at the bottom, not as good as the cleaning maids in the Qing Palace.She is the lord in name, but in reality, her status is very low, not much different from that of a court lady.

The rest chose a part to serve as handymen in the harem.Now many of the maids in the palace are old, and Zhu Cihong also considered the suggestion given by Zuo Fu before, and planned to let these maids go home, so as to earn a little reputation for his kindness.

The suggestion to leave the palace at the age of 25 is planned to be implemented in the next two years.In fact, the maidservants and eunuchs in the harem who were responsible for the miscellaneous work had always been a financial burden on the Ming Dynasty.And Zhu Cihong advocates simplicity, so he also thinks that Zuo Fu's suggestion is good. Letting the maids leave the palace when they reach their age will not only show the king's kindness, but also reduce the financial burden. Form forces.

As for the eunuch, he also intends to carry out reforms.Because Zuo Fu once gave him a travel book, which introduced the style of Dongying. He heard that there were no such creatures as eunuchs in this Japanese country. After being surprised, he felt that such an inhumane thing could not be done in a small country, so Ming could not be too far behind. , or not to be ridiculed.

Moreover, the eunuchs in Daming were also restless, and how many powerful eunuchs were messing around, which caused damage to the foundation of the dynasty, so it would be good to learn from Dongying.

I heard that in the Dongying shogunate, although men can enter the Olympiad, there is a limit. They do some heavy physical work, but in the place where the female relatives live, they are all performed by women. Although there are many jobs in the harem, but the body Even strong women can handle it.

It is precisely because of this consideration that Zhu Cihuang also left some beautiful girls as palace maids, and also planned to recruit some strong girls from the people. After serving in the palace for 25 years, not only can they go out of the palace and return home The royal family will also give a generous pension. In this way, not only can they win a good reputation, but it can also reduce the evil deeds of the harem maidservant.

After all, it is still possible to go out, so the possibility of giving people their lives is reduced, and those concubines can live in peace without the help of these people.

This is the perspective of the emperor, and the consideration of the problem is different.Like Zuo Fu, she raised this opinion because she simply felt that the palace maids were locked up until they died, and that they could no longer work when they were old. .

But Zhu Cihong obviously had his own considerations, he was thinking more about how to balance the power in the harem and prevent the harem from burning.

But no matter what he thinks, Zuo Fu's goal has been achieved.After hearing the news that the emperor was willing to release the palace maids out of the palace, Zuo Fu was still very happy.

While she was happy, the queen was so angry that her heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys ached.

Either don't choose, choose as many as you choose, won't she be suffocated to death in this harem in the future?Especially these women are all of good looks, like a hundred flowers in the imperial garden, beautiful and elegant, even a talented person has an appearance that is not inferior to her beauty, how can you not be angry when such a group of powerful enemies enter the palace?How can you feel at ease?
But it doesn't matter if she is angry or not, anyway, everyone is happy to see this scene.

After all, even if some ministers have ulterior motives, they don't want the descendant family to dominate and occupy the harem.

For speculators like them, eggs cannot be put in one basket. The more baskets there are, the more they can gamble.If the Queen's family becomes dominant, how can they reap the benefits?
Zuo Fu didn't bother to care about these people's petty thoughts.After dealing with a bunch of other shitty stuff, Enke is about to start.

It was Zuo Fu's first time as an examiner, and he was inevitably a little nervous when he handed out the test papers.

After all, this is related to her right to speak in the court of the Science School, so she still has to be careful.In the past few days, she ate and drank at the yamen, and she brought Song Yingxing over. The two of them consulted day and night, and finally made up all the examination papers, handed them over to Zhu Cihong and the cabinet for review, and waited for the emperor to make a decision. .

Science has just entered the eyes of the world.

Quiet yet powerful, people all over the world focused their attention on this imperial examination.

For Confucian scholars, this is the first time in the thousands of years since Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty revered Confucianism alone, another school challenged Confucianism.

They were all quietly observing and witnessing the imperial examination.

The reason why they didn't make a fuss was probably because they didn't have the face to make a fuss.

There is no other reason, probably because Changzhou and Qiongzhou are really good, and Zuo Fu does not reject Confucianism, and even said that the two schools can be used together and complement each other.

People's attitude is so friendly, and the effect of scientific application is so obvious, how can you say anything against it?
It is estimated that as soon as he said it, he was sprayed to death by the whole world.

Although the mudlegs are illiterate, it is clear who can lead them to live a good life.Therefore, in order to protect Confucianism, they can only keep their mouths shut and observe silently.

The process of this imperial examination is no different from that in the past. Students who come to refer to it still have to be "humiliated". It is not enough to be searched all over their bodies.

Don't blame the examiners like Daming for their taste. For hundreds of years, these cheating methods are impossible to guard against. You can't even imagine that someone actually stuffed things in there. You can even think of this, but it can only be said that it is absolute!
And once there is fraud in the imperial examination, everyone will be unlucky, so, sorry, although it is insulting to the gentlemen, as long as you want to enter this examination room, then you can only learn from Han Xin and suffer this "humiliation".

Even though they don't like to do this, the inspectors will suffer physically and mentally after every imperial examination.

Just imagine, who the hell is willing to watch so many valley roads and smell shit in one day!
Fortunately, as the chief examiner, Zuo Fu didn't have to go through this torture, she just had to wait for the students to come in.

The mathematics exam this morning; tomorrow is physics, the day after tomorrow is chemistry, the day after tomorrow is biology, and the day after tomorrow is geography and astronomy.

In Zuofu, geography and astronomy are also included in the subject of science. To be precise, it is a science subject, so it is also compulsory.

Compared with the literature test over there, the science test takes five days.

But the total test time is not as much as there.

After all, something that can be done in an hour, you can leave after the exam.Yes, the science test is not the same as the literary test. Candidates can come out after the test and don't have to suffer in it.

But it’s hard for these inspection officers, because they will see more butts than before, and these students will have to be inspected several times...

 The speed of life and death!Finally got out!Relatives may or may not come tomorrow. I hope they can finally understand how special the situation is now... In prayer, babies must wear masks when going out, and minimize gatherings, so that they don’t have to visit relatives next time, I Will write more.
