Today is the second day of the August 2018, and there are still a few days left before entering the venue on the ninth day of the 19th day. Zhao Hao asked his father to rest on the mountain, but he went down the mountain to prepare an application for candidates to enter the venue, accompanied by Gao Wu and Qiaoqiao.

On the carriage down the mountain, Qiaoqiao and Zhao Hao sat opposite each other, Zhi Yi tilted his head to look at him.

Speaking of which, although both of them live in the yard, it is the first time this is like this in a month.

"Does there be flowers on my face?" Zhao Hao touched his cheek.

"No." Qiaoqiao shook her head in a hurry and turned her eyes to the window and said, "You are so strange. You are said to be indifferent to fame and fortune, but you are so concerned about the master's studies. You are said to be passionate about fame, but you are not doing your job all day long..."

"How can I be called being unemployed?" Zhao Hao stretched and sorted out the stack of manuscripts at his hand. He has not left the house this month. In order to save his boredom, he wrote down some things. "I am the hope of revitalizing the Ming Dynasty."

"Brave." Qiao Qiao turned around, flicked her woolen eyelashes and asked with a crisp voice: "Didn't you think about taking the exam yourself?"

"There is a joke." Zhao Hao smiled and said, "A man bought a high-tow sermon in a bookstore. Someone asked him what he bought? He said he wanted to take the exam for the juren. Others laughed and said, "There is no better than your father's exam." When he heard this, he agreed, so he bought the book back and handed it over to his father to read it."

"Hahaha..." Qiaoqiao was amused by him and bent over, kicked Zhao Hao lightly with her toes and said, "You just arrange Master Zhao, and I will complain if I turn around."

"Just tell me, anyway, my father's purpose in taking the imperial examination was to let me enjoy wealth." Zhao Hao boasted with indifferent expressions.

"Nonsense." Qiao Qiao didn't believe this. If she said that she was enjoying the wealth of whom, she felt that the father and son were almost the same as they were.

As the two talked, the carriage arrived at Confucius Temple on the banks of the Qinhuai River.

As the autumn examination approaches, shops on the street are filled with various test tools and a wide range of food.

Zhao Hao then pulled Qiaoqiao to visit each store and selected the best-made copper mattresses, door curtains, stove candlesticks, candle cutters, roll bags, etc. He bought four of them for every one that could be seen on the market.

Qiao Qiao is puzzled. Isn’t there only three candidates in the family? Why buy one more?

Zhao Hao replied: "Spare parts, just in case."

"It costs too much money." Qiaoqiao did not give a good comment.

After loading the things I bought back into the car, Zhao Hao was about to go home. Qiaoqiao reminded him: "Don't sell food for exams?"

"We don't have to worry about this, someone must have given it." Zhao Hao smiled and shook his head, looking stinky.

Back at Caijia Lane, Qiaoqiao saw Tang Youde's cool carriage, which had already stopped beside Wei Jixian.

"Hey, how did he know? Let's come back today?" Qiao Qiao was puzzled.

"There is a good business, but there is no reason." Zhao Hao jumped out of the car with a smile, asked Gao Wu to send all the things to Wang Wuyang, and asked the two apprentices to sort them out, and then let Qiaoqiao go to the restaurant to say hello to Fang De.

He returned home empty-handed.

Although I haven't come back for a month, my family is still in order, so naturally someone is guarding the house and cleaning it.

Now, more than fifty people in Caijia Lane have held Zhao Hao's job, and almost all men have received his reward, and he doesn't need any special instructions on these trivial matters.

Fatty Tang was sitting under the shade of the tree, drinking tea with great pleasure. When he saw Zhao Hao pushing the door in, he jumped up quickly and said with a smile from the bottom of his heart: "Young Master, I'm waiting day and night, so I've been waiting for you back."

"Didn't you let someone stare at Xiaocang Mountain every day?" Zhao Hao sat on his chair.

While pouring tea for him, Fatty Tang smiled and said, "Are you afraid that the young master will hire people? If the young master hadn't let me go up the mountain, I would have been serving the mountain long ago."

"I'm talking nonsense with my eyes open." Zhao Hao laughed loudly, exposing Fatty Tang's thoughts. "I think you can't sit still."

"Hehe, I can't hide anything from my husband..." Fatty Tang smiled embarrassedly and nodded, "It's strange, my husband. Over the past month, the silk price has only fluctuated up and down, neither rising nor falling. The chambers of commerce could not stop it, and many people started to ship the goods."

"They know that they are all smart people." Zhao Hao smiled gradually and said, "But I'm afraid that more people can still not control their greed."

"I let the young master say that several chambers of commerce are buying into the market in large quantities, which means they are still bullish." Tang Youde nodded.

"They can't play with those people." Zhao Hao saw an ant crawling on the smooth edge of the cup with difficulty, and gently bounced the ant: "The price cannot rise, which means that those people are shipping. When they are about to escape, the details of opening the sea should be in full swing."

"Yes." Tang Youde nodded and breathed a sigh of relief. He was watching the strange fluctuations in silk prices so he was afraid that he would suddenly rise, so he could not sleep or eat. He had to see Zhao Hao and listen to his analysis and analysis so that he could put his heart back in his stomach.

After a pause, he reported again: "By the way, Mr. Liu has looked for me several times and asked me why I haven't opened a factory for a long time?"

"The weather is too hot, no one works, the loom that was negotiated fell yellow, you are anxious to have a second child and twist your waist... There are not many reasons?" Zhao Hao rolled his eyes and said irresponsibly.

"Young Master, I already have six children..." Tang Youde said awkwardly, and then smiled bitterly: "I have made up all the reasons for making up, but is Liu Yuanwai so easy to cheat? He has already found out that we sold the silk."

"I'm selling mine, it's all his business?" Zhao Hao snorted disdainfully: "We will deal with it when the silk is in our hands. We won't be able to return it to him then."

"But the young master doesn't play according to the routine, Mr. Liu will inevitably feel panic."

"What you want is to make him feel uncomfortable." Zhao Hao laughed and said, "Why are you feeling sorry for looking at his bear?"

"Of course I'm relieved." Tang Youde couldn't help but smile, "Every time I hang him for an hour before I met him. But I saw that he was almost furious, so I was afraid that we would ask us to pay it back in advance."

"Impossible, the red seal with black and white paper, said that three months is three months. If the lawsuit is fought in Beijing, I will not repay him in advance." Zhao Hao sat upright and said to Tang Youde: "If you are really fine, go to Xiaocang Mountain to avoid the heat, and then ask a senior sect to help you with a consultant and come up with a preliminary rectification strategy."

"I, I'll listen to the young master." Tang Youde was about to avoid Mr. Liu, so he naturally agreed: "Tomorrow I will invite a few garden masters to come over and take a look."

"As soon as possible." Zhao Hao stood up and said, "It's all right. Don't bother me in the past half month. I have to concentrate on taking the exam."

"Okay." Tang Youde also stood up and pointed to the pile of things in the main hall and said, "That is the food I prepared for the master, and the commonly used medicines. I don't know which ones are used together, so I brought them all."

"I'm sorry." Zhao Hao had expected that Tang Youde would not come empty-handed, so he smiled and thanked him and sent him out.

After a while, two students came and heard the news. They hadn't seen their master for a month, so they missed them very much. Zhao Hao also missed them very much. He asked about their preparations for the exam. He knew that they had already made up their minds and stopped saying anything. The three of them divided the food sent by Tang Youde and then selected the medicines they used, Zhao Jin also came back from the yamen.

Seeing Zhao Hao, Zhao Jin wanted to speak but stopped. How could Zhao Hao have such a strong eye? He smiled and said, "Is it because the Duke of Wei who was fined?"

"Hey, you're in seclusion all day in the mountains, how did you know about this?" Zhao Jin couldn't help but smile and said, "It was Wu Shi who came to impeach him for his son-in-law and other illegal activities. As a result, the Duke of Wei was reprimanded by His Majesty and his salary was fined for two months."

"It's just a drizzle." Zhao Hao smiled. He thought that in less than two months, Duke Wei would be fined for causing trouble for Nanjing prison students. He even felt a little sympathetic. This husband who breathed wrongly was already a mistake.

"But now, his father and son have been honest for less than one or two years." Zhao Jin also nodded with a smile and said, "There is another thing I will tell you after the Qiu Examination."

"Yes." Zhao Hao understood what was going on as soon as he heard it, but in the autumn examination, it was really not suitable to distract himself.

On the eighth day of the eighth month, Zhao Hao and his two apprentices took Zhao Shouzheng down the mountain, first went to Jiufeng Temple to write the first and handed over the paper.

This is actually to verify the right person in advance to reduce the burden on entering the market tomorrow.

When we got home, the sun had not set, and the whole family had a light and no meaty supper. Wang Wuyang brought the test basket prepared for the master and explained the location of the things clearly.

Tomorrow's ninth day is the day to go to the battlefield. Everyone dared not chat, so they went to bed early after the explanation.
Chapter completed!
