I was engaged in infrastructure construction in the Han Dynasty [Transmigration Book]

Chapter 149 [3 More] 149

Huo Guang coughed lightly and said, "Your Highness has made a general outline of this statement, but the standards for being able to take the exam have not yet been formulated. Can't everyone be able to take the exam?"

He really couldn't pick out the problem. Liu Tan even wrote to prevent leaking of test papers and preventing cheating. What else could they say?

In fact, if Liu Tan didn't write it, even Huo Guang wouldn't have thought of leaking the test paper and cheating at the beginning.

After hearing this, Liu Tan said: "Let's take the test for all those who can read. Anyway, the first test is to screen those who don't know enough."

After hearing this, Li Buyan asked stupidly: "Aren't there many people?"

Liu Tan sneered: "Now go to Shuofang City and ask, how many people are literate?"

Rabbits in later generations have spent great efforts in literacy and failed to make everyone literate, let alone now.

No matter what age you are in, studying is a very expensive thing. Without financial support, it is impossible to reach a certain level. If you can know a few words, it is considered the best.

Liu Tan has never conducted a sample survey, but thinking about it, Miao Rui and Bi Gao stood out from the eunuchs to him because of their literacy, which shows that even eunuchs are not necessarily literate.

Is there anything to worry about?

Huo Guang glanced at Li Buyan and asked, "How many literate soldiers do you have?"

Li Buyan scratched his head and did not speak again.

This is also the reason why Liu Tan screened the literate people in the first wave.

However, Li Buyan's words suddenly inspired him.

Liu Tan suddenly thought that there are some people who are not incompetent, but just don't have the capital to learn. It would be a pity to miss such people.

He said what he thought of. After hearing his proposal, Huo Guang wondered again whether the old note was written by Liu Tan. How could there be such a big gap?

Huo Guang said helplessly, "My lord, even if there is such a person, how can you tell them?"

Liu Tan got stuck for a while, then tilted his head and said, "Let the county guards recommend you?"

Huo Guang was expressionless: "Recommendation? How to recommend it? Do you want them to recommend only illiterate people? Do you believe that they dare to push the improvement of slaves under their own sect?"

These days, the exchange of slaves for good citizenship is very strict, and it is so strict that it is almost impossible to produce such a person in a year.

What's more, when ordinary people encounter bad times, they will join themselves as slaves in order to survive, and some slaves even live better than ordinary people.

Among other things, Miao Rui, Bi Gao, and even Liu Tan's riding slaves, um, the kind of slaves who lead his horses and help him mount them, all live better than ordinary people.

These people have been in contact with officials for a long time, and some of them have even been slaves in the county guard's family for generations. Do you think the county guard wants to push his own slaves or ordinary people he doesn't know?

Liu Tan opened his mouth after hearing this, thinking about many possibilities in an instant, and felt that his thoughts were a bit naive for a while.

"It seems inappropriate."

Jiang Chong also said: "Even if the county guard is an upright person, it is impossible to screen people every day, not to mention that these people are illiterate, and they have to be taught again after sending them up, which is too time-consuming."

Liu Tan thinks about it too. People like Huo Guang have been trained for decades, and they only have such abilities and insights when they grew up beside Liu Che.

For another person, he is not young at all, and it would be a torture for him to learn from scratch.

Liu Tan was a little awkward and swelled up. Before seeing that everyone was not against the exam, he wanted to take it a step further.

Think about it, this is in the Western Han Dynasty, no aristocratic family has emerged. Although the nobles are also monopolizing the class, it is not so difficult for the poor to stand out.

If it were placed in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Tan's proposal for this exam would probably be wiped out by the elite in one go as soon as it was proposed.

Liu Tan simply gave up the proposal.

The others breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was just their Highness's whimsical imagination.

However, who knew that although Liu Tan didn't mention this matter, he put the national literacy on the agenda.

Of course, this can only be discussed. First of all, everyone must be fed and clothed, and then they will have the energy to pursue a higher class.

Regarding other questions about the exam, basically no one objected, and the rest was to assign tasks to the county guards when they arrived here.

But before that, the post house where the county guards live needs to be repaired.

Originally, Liu Tan was thinking of building a brick house directly, but he didn't expect that the finished red bricks would not come out anytime soon, so he could only build the house according to the old method for the time being.

This matter was directly handed over to Sang Qian by Liu Tan—Li Buyi was staring at the brick kiln, Wei Busu was looking for purple rocks, Huo Guang was in charge of the affairs of the entire northern border country every day, and Jiang Chong was still looking through the years. dossier.

These people are not free, so they are going to be handed over to Sang Qian?

Sang Qian was already planning to ask for leave to go out to draw pictures. After all, people must do what they say. When he used this reason to ask for resignation, he must follow through to the end.

As a result, Liu Tan ordered a new task before he could run, and Sang Qian didn't object, but was taken aback when he saw the blueprint—isn't it too small?

Sang Qian didn't dare to go to Liu Tan, he didn't know why, it seemed that Liu Tan was gentle and Huo Guang was more serious, but he would rather go to Huo Guang than Liu Tan.

Probably... Although Huo Guang is serious, they are familiar with each other anyway, and their value orientation is relatively similar, and he can't fathom the thoughts of His Royal Highness the King of the Northern Realm.

Huo Guang was a little surprised when he saw Sang Qian coming over and asked, "What's wrong?"

Sang Qian took the blueprint and said, "Is this post house a little rough?"

Huo Guang put on Liu Tan's signature gentle smile, and Sang Qian trembled when he saw it, and then he heard Huo Guang gently ask: "Do you know where Your Highness lives now?"

County government, do you even need to ask?

Just as Sang Qian was about to answer, he suddenly realized that this post house was actually bigger than the county mansion. According to the regulations, no building within the border could be bigger than the royal palace.

But... the county government looks like...

Seeing that he was still hesitant, Huo Guang reprimanded him instantly: "Now this scale has been chartered by His Highness, what else do you want?"

Sang Qian really broke, anyway, it was the county guard who lived in them and not them, the place where Sang Qian lived was still very dilapidated!

When the post house was built, the county guards also arrived one after another, and they were all dumbfounded when they saw the post house.

Except for the extremely poor counties, which one of them has a better mansion than this one?

At first everyone thought it was the king of the northern border who wanted to give them an insult in this way, then Sang Qian stood up and smiled and said, "Everyone, thirty feet ahead is the county where His Highness lives now."

Everyone's eyes subconsciously looked to the east. At a distance of about [-] feet, about [-] meters, they could see at a glance that the county mansion was not as large as the post house.

Immediately everyone was dumbfounded, and a black and thin sheriff said: "In my opinion, this post house is already good. It seems that you are used to being pampered and pampered on weekdays. Even His Highness lives here, so don't be picky." Alright."

The other county guards didn't even look at him, and went in with their sleeves swung. They didn't feel that Liu Tan was giving them power, but they were also unhappy.

And letting the captain of a country stare at them, is this not worrying about them?How did they know that it was because Sang Qian was the most free now?

Soon something that made them even more unhappy came.

After everyone arrived, Sang Qian called them all together, pointed to a pile of snow-white paper on the desk and said, "Everyone, let's take a test first."

The sheriffs:? ? ? ? ? ?
