Chapter 163: Yu Sheng's old law, Sishui Qing (6)

The group of people who learn calligraphy the fastest and best learn calligraphy in the ink world are basically concentrated here to help copy.

When I was doing the final check, Liu Finger was whispering there while whispering, obviously a little dissatisfied.

"The grass is so expensive, and those people have made money with Wu Zhu. They are about to catch them to mine in Tieshan. Why waste these grass is so thick?"

He muttered, but his hands didn't stop.

Shi listened to the muttering of six fingers for a while, and then listened to the muttering of others that were echoing, and couldn't help but shake his head, knocked on the wood beside him, and said, "Let's stop for a moment."

Next door was there to sort out the future disobedience of the laws. They just looked here curiously and continued to be busy with their work.

Shi looked at the person on his side, walked to Liuzhi and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Liu Finger is respectful rather than afraid. He thought he was right and replied with confidence: "I just think it's better to keep the grass and silk to teach people how to learn the characters. Those people and Wu Zhu make money together, and they are going to kill..."

He pointed to the dirty words and numbers written on it and said, "They can't recognize these, and you are not ready to let them be officials, so why do you have to do these?"

Since everyone stopped, they heard Liuzhi's words and did not understand the matter very well.

After thinking about it, he asked, "What do you think are clothes used for?"

The original cultural level of the Mozhe was not very high, and Mozi often used this metaphor to reason. When everyone heard Shi, they suddenly asked a strange question, and knew that this was telling the truth to everyone, so they answered it all in a verbal way.

"Shad cover."

“Cool in summer and warm in winter.”

"The princes and nobles use it to distinguish between noble and humble."

"Sacrifice."

After all the strange reasons were revealed, Shi smiled and said, "I heard that there was such a man in Chu. He was originally poor and later rich, so he bought a gorgeous silk dress, using the most expensive purple dye in Qi. When he returned to his hometown in a carriage, it happened to be night."

"But he did not go home immediately, but waited outside the city gate for a night and went home at noon the next day. Someone was puzzled, so he said, "Walking in brocade clothes at night, how can others know that I am rich and noble?" Here, clothes are to show wealth, so they must be seen by others."

He pointed to the paper that had been copied halfway and said, "These grass and silk are like clothes. Choosing talents is like covering up shame and keeping warm; and letting those who cannot be talents answer it is like showing the wealth behind the clothes."

"If I just let the Mozhe go directly to be an official without going through this assessment, then wouldn't it be a brocade clothes walking at night? Brocade clothes can cover up shame, keep warm, but can also show wealth."

"This method of selecting a virtuous person is like Jinyi. Naturally, you have to do everything Jinyi can do."

"At the same time, I hope the world can see that there is such a way to select talents. As for those officials who were originally harming, in the eyes of our Mo family, they are just an ant lying on their fingers."

He stretched out his fingers, gently crushed them, stretched out his palms and said, "If you crush them gently, you will die. But before they are crushed, they can do something that benefits the world. They may not be willing to do it, but we can let them cooperate."

Liu Finger scratched his head and said, "But what if all the kings and princes in the world use this method of selecting talents? They do not use the Mo family's righteousness, but use this method of selecting talents, isn't it more difficult to benefit the world?"

Shi shook his head and thought to himself that if you want to use this method, you may have to ask the nobles, concubines, the generals, and the minorities, and at least you must clean up them first.

If the wandering scholars in the world know this method, they will definitely hope that the king and the prince will use this method. Unfortunately, if the king and the prince want to use it, they must first weaken the nobles. Once this method of selecting wise men is released, the wandering scholars will probably be afraid that they will be with the nobles until they die.

There were some dark words, but it was not convenient to say them at this time. I smiled and didn't answer them. After answering some of the doubts of everyone, I returned to my seat and continued to check the papers.

…………

Three days later, it was a sunny day.

It was another day after the spring plowing season of planting. A large number of people in the city came to watch the fun. The righteous master used ropes to separate everyone from others to maintain order, and prevent everyone from making noise.

The examination room layout is very distinctive in the intertwined era.

Mozhe and some people in Peixian were used to tables and chairs, so there were some tables and chairs in the examination room.

Some people who stick to the old rules are not used to tables and chairs, so there are small tables on the ground and some trellis are placed on the ground.

However, paper, brushes, charcoal pens and other things are the same and will not care about the rest of the people.

Because this was not an absolutely fair assessment, and tables, chairs and cases were just symbols of fairness.

More than 20 people were selected from the Mozhe to enter one by one.

Most of the people who were preparing to take this opportunity to make Mozhe admit that they were talented but would force Mozhe to ask them to do things before they could come out.

Shi Chengzi stood behind him, holding a piece of paper, muttering some lists in a low voice, and next to him a new local craftsman from Peixian was identifying them one by one.

The people on the list all need to be arrested, confiscated, and were about to be sent to the mine to work in collusion with Wu Zhu.

Shi felt that Mozhe was really kind, but Ximen Bao threw these minor officials into the Zhang River and drowned. Mozhe lacked labor and was really reluctant to let them die.

Those who wanted to "reason" a embarrassed lieutenant, kneeled on the cattail grass according to their past habits, and after quieting around them, the paper was distributed.

I was there with my fingers bent, calculating how long it would take to cause sensation and dissatisfaction.

After just three times, someone stood up and asked angrily.

"We don't recognize the words on this!"

After he said this, the other minor officials also stood up one after another, quite dissatisfied, and shouted: "Is this how Mozhe chose the wise?"

Shi did not look at them, but said to the people watching the fun outside: "You said that you don't even recognize words. Can this be considered a talent?"

The people who watched the fun laughed and said nothing, but they didn't bother to watch the fun anyway.

Today, I just want to promote it and don’t care about the minor officials at all, so I also target the people.

An original minor official said angrily: "We recognize words, but we just don't recognize words on them!"

Shi laughed, pointed to the words written on the food shop in the distance, and asked the people around him, "Do you recognize the top word?"

The food shop has been in Peiyi for a long time, and the words written on it are related to food. People may not be able to write it, but they naturally know it after hearing and hearing, and they shouted, "That's a cake!"

Shi said with a ridicule: "Look, you all know the words, but they don't know them. How can you be considered a talented person? I see, you are all talented than them. When the time comes, you can also participate. As long as you recognize the words, you can participate in the selection of the virtuous person and choose the best ones to serve."

"Our Mo family said that officials are actually like carpenters and farmers, who do things and make money to support themselves. Think about it, if you become an official, your annual salary will always be greater than that of carpenters. If you ask you to choose, you will definitely be willing to become an official."

"I think you can't do it, but your children can do it. They say that the son inherits his father's business, but I think it may not be true in Pei County in the future. You are a farmer, and your children may become wise men and officials. Do you think, is it good to choose wise men like this?"

This is a very explicit call to Ning Youchihu, which is extremely inflammatory, especially when the patriarchal system is the rule of the world at this time, it is extremely deceptive.

The people watching the fun cheered, and the faces of the officials became even more ugly. Someone walked to the side with paper and asked, "Although we don't recognize the words on it, we may not understand the above principles."

Shi asked casually: "One triangle, nineteen hooks, one hundred and eight strands, what is the string?"

Some people still know the truth about the three and four, but it is not many people know the secret of the implicit square addition.

The little official was stunned for a moment and asked, "Is this the question above?"

Shi shook his head and said, "No, it's probably asking about the geometry of the three and four strings?"

The little official said angrily: "If we recognize the question above, we can answer it! If we hook three and four, the strings will be five! I also know that hook six and eight, the strings will be ten!"

He was quite content with this, but he said helplessly, "I know your ability, and I know that if you ask for a question of 19 and 18, you will know the length of the string. But I don't believe that those you sent can also calculate it! I'm afraid that if you want to talk about the nine numbers, they may not be as good as me. As long as I recognize the question, I can compare!"

"How can you Mozhe choose the virtuous like this? How can people convince people that they are virtuous?"

Shi asked with a look on his face, "Why do you compare with me first?"

The little official's face twitched, and the remaining angry people also restrained their arrogance. They knew their ability and those heroic articles. How could they dare to compare with him?

After learning a little bit of Mo Zi's arrogant look, "You are not as good as me, are you unwilling to accept it? I said this, from the nine numbers, from Yan to Chu, from Qi to Qin, there is no one in the world who can calculate faster than me."

He actually only learned half of the time. Mozi was too high to talk about his knowledge to the well-known Confucian scholars in the world. Others criticized his knowledge as if they were touching a stone with an egg...

There was no such opportunity, so I could only brag about the minor officials in Xiaoxiaopai County.

But this is quite impressive. Those people bow their heads and believe it, but they can't compare anyway.

After suppressing these people's arrogance, he took out a nine-chapter arithmetic book written by himself, and said tremblingly: "My nine-digit knowledge is written on these grass silk. You don't even know the words, but those people can understand the above knowledge if they recognize the words."

"It's like, one adult is only five feet tall, and another child is also five feet tall, but the children's parents are nine feet tall. Now if you want to choose a tall person in ten years, would you choose that adult? Or would you choose that child?"

"They may not know that Gou 19 is now and that Gou 18 is now, but they will know in the future. You know that Gou 3 is Four Strings and Five Strings and Five, and they also know, but they still recognize words. So who is the wise man?"

"The wise and capable people need to be compared. Farmers can plant them, but some people can produce three stones per mu, while others can produce one stone per mu. If you choose the Gangzheng, who should you choose?"

"It is impossible to say that everything that can be planted is a talented person in the matter of farming? A talented person is first and foremost a person, a minister of heaven, and he needs to be more virtuous than others to be considered a talent among people."
