The Ming Dynasty's Spokesperson

Chapter 149 Tong Tianwang

Lin Tailai knew what Gao Changjiang was most concerned about right now, "After I sign up, I will gather all the leaders in Hengtang Town and hold a society meeting!

Then reorganize and plan the society, and then announce your appointment. "

Gao Changjiang said inexplicably: "Why should I sign up for the examination? Isn't the government examination over?"

Gao Changjiang has not been with Lin Tailai these days, so he doesn't know what he is thinking about sitting in the restaurant.

Lin Tailai replied: "The literary exams are over, but the martial arts exams will start again in May."

Gao Changjiang: "."

Are you too busy sitting in the gym? Why are you thinking about participating in martial arts competitions again?

Lin Tailai explained: "The results of the government examination were released very quickly, so when the results of the government examination were released, I went to the county government to register.

Then go to Mudu Port to inspect, meet with the surrounding halls of the alliance, and determine the future relationship!

After that, he returned to Hengtang Town to hold a society meeting to make detailed arrangements for future society affairs. Don't worry, just stay calm! "

Although Gao Changjiang was impatient, he didn't ask much why he had to wait until the results were released.

If you understand the most basic human ways and sophistication, who doesn’t want to “show off” in front of others?

The low-level exam results were released very quickly. Two days later, just after May, the government exam results were released.

As expected, candidate Lin Tailai was on the list and passed the government examination.

Moreover, Lin Tailai is the leader of the case, so I don’t know if this is an accident or not.

After the boy who ran to look at the results came back, he set off firecrackers at the entrance of the hall, so Lin Tailai, who was still sleeping, was awakened.

Lin Zuoguan let go of Madam Fan, who had come to fight Qiu Feng again, and came out of the inner courtyard yawning. Only then did he realize that he had been the target of the crime again.

Standing on the platform of the hall, Lin Tailai said subconsciously: "Do you want me to live on the fire in front of the mansion?"

Immediately, someone went to get the newly customized green shirt, ready to change into it, and then went to the National Finance Office in front to accept the congratulations of his subordinates.

From today on, he is a child.

According to the original rules of the imperial examination in this dynasty, after passing the imperial examination, one must wait until he fails the Taoist examination and fails to pass the examination before he can be called a Tongsheng.

But people nowadays don't care about so many rigid rules. As long as they pass the government examination, they can be called a child.

Tong Sheng was not yet a scholar, and did not have the political privileges of a scholar, but he was given a little more subtle preferential treatment than ordinary people, which could be regarded as an encouragement to those who studied and made progress.

For example, Tong Sheng can wear a green shirt as a formal dress (Lin Daguan had already overstepped this rule), and many local officials would also allow Tong Sheng to avoid kneeling when they meet Tong Sheng.

There is also a very affordable option: when filling vacancies for staff, priority will be given to selecting children.

Moreover, Tongsheng can also act as a backup option for scholars in certain ethical occasions.

For example, when the social studies department cannot recruit scholars to serve as private school teachers, it can ask senior students to teach;

For example, in ceremonial occasions such as wedding banquets, if you really can't find a scholar to sit at the head table, you can also invite an old boy to sit at the table.

It is said that there are still many old boys who have been unable to make progress for many years and have no prospects. They dare to form gangs and cause trouble everywhere, becoming local tyrants and causing headaches to local government offices. They are known as the "Tong Tianwang".

Wearing a formal and unobtrusive gown, a freshly minted boy surnamed Lin asked Gao Changjiang: "How many famous people are there in Suzhou?"

After Gao Changjiang thought for a while, he replied: "Total of Wu County and Changzhou County, the total number of students, candidates, and Jinshi should be about five hundred."

Lin Tailai sighed: "So, among a population of one million, I am the person with the highest academic qualifications among the five hundred people?"

Gao Changjiang said that it would be fine if you are happy to sit in the restaurant.

Lin Tailai waved to the Zhang brothers, "Let's go! Go to the county government office to sign up!"

The group left the hall, crossed the moat onto the Wannian Bridge, entered Xumen, and then walked north along Xueshi Street named after Wang Hao.

Not long after, Official Lin arrived at the county government office, and there were smiling faces everywhere he went.

There were also many well-informed people who congratulated Lin Daguanren on his promotion to Tongsheng in person.

Lin Tailai didn't chat much with people on the road and went straight to the barracks, one of the six rooms.

At this time, Pang Sili, the boss of the military room, happened to be there. He was slightly surprised to see Lin Tailai coming in.

Because the business of the barracks does not have much overlap with Lin Tailai.

At first, Lin Tailai mostly dealt with the household housing and grain department, and later the prison room and the ceremonial room were added.

Could it be that Lin Tailai wanted to place trusted personnel in the county government's strong squad, jailers or inspection department archers?

Lin Daguan said seriously: "I, Lin Tailai, a good citizen of Wutuluziwei, the 13th capital of this county!"

With a clean family background, no criminal record, and a desire to serve the country, come and sign up for the martial arts exam! "

Secretary Pang: "."

How does Lin Tailai manage to keep from laughing while telling these jokes?

Seeing that Secretary Pang was still stunned, Lin Daguan said displeasedly: "Can't I sign up?"

Secretary Pang came to his senses and quickly explained: "Of course you can sign up, but you didn't bring the guarantee letter.

The military examination guarantee letter needs to be issued by the head of the district where the household registration is located. Without this, the registration cannot be completed. "

Lin Tailai had nothing to do. It seemed that he had to go home immediately, fulfill his filial piety, and write a letter of guarantee to the village chief.

But Secretary Pang gave a very considerate suggestion: "You should register your name today, and go through the necessary procedures first.

Just ask the head of the village to issue a letter of guarantee and then send someone to deliver it. You don't have to come back in person. "

Mr. Lin is very satisfied with this service attitude. Who said that when going through the formalities at the Yamen, you often have to run errands several times just to fill in the materials?

There are still many good officials like Secretary Pang who are eager to serve!

Just as he was about to leave, Lin Tailai was called over by the magistrate again.

Magistrate Deng's face was still so ugly. In the courtroom, Official Lin could only calm down his momentum a little.

Magistrate Deng spoke first: "The summer tax collection is about to begin."

Lin Tailai only answered one word: "Yes!"

The imperial court levied money and grain twice a year. The first half of the year was summer tax, and the second half was autumn grain. Of course, autumn grain was definitely the largest part, and the proportion of summer tax was relatively small.

Magistrate Deng reprimanded: "In the first, fifth, eleventh, thirteenth and other cities in your jurisdiction, the collection of taxes in the past month has been extremely lax!

The collection of arrears from previous years has almost stagnated, far less than other halls!

In the past, how will the money and food be collected this year! "

Lin Tailai muttered in his heart, "Asking knowingly". He didn't believe that Magistrate Deng didn't understand the situation.

It wasn't Lin Tailai who urged him not to work hard. Of course there were objective reasons for this happening.

In the past month or so, there has been a crazy expansion. All the members of the association have been allocated to occupying the territory. There is no spare energy left to go to the countryside to collect data.

Magistrate Deng called Lin Tailai here today to warn him in advance not to delay this year's money and grain collection.

Coming out of the courtroom, the Zhang brothers asked, "Should we hurry up and prepare to start collecting summer taxes?"

"No rush, no hurry! No rush this year!" Lin Tailai said calmly: "Because the county magistrate's term is three years!"

The Zhang brothers were puzzled, what did this mean?

Lin Tailai laughed and said: "If you default more this year, he will be anxious next year and the year after that! The more anxious he is to collect the payment, the more he will rely on us to help him!"

Zhang brothers: "."

Very good, very bad. At this moment, their place finally looked like a local bully.

The legendary Child Heavenly King should be like this, right?

I forgot to ask for a monthly ticket yesterday, so I’ll ask for it today!
