Chapter 072: Farmers' Imperial Examination Road (End)(2/2)
Even more magical things are still to come. This year, when the boy test was tested, people who bought "Zhou's Selection" found that there was a question in the county test that was exactly the same as a question in the test paper!
The few candidates who had read the standard answer were ecstatic and quickly wrote it out.
After the exam, these candidates were glad to talk about this with pride.
As soon as the news spread, the county was in an uproar.
This is not a leaked test question, after all, "Zhou's Selection" came out a few months in advance.
Upon hearing the news, the county magistrate hurriedly ordered someone to find a set and read it carefully. He was surprised to find that the editor of this set of test questions knew him very well.
After reading these test questions, he almost thought it was his own.
After being figured out by someone, the county magistrate was a little dissatisfied at first, but soon, he couldn't help but feel proud again.
He studied hard for more than ten years and finally became a parent in the whole place. Isn’t he just enjoying this feeling of being so arrogant, being sought after and being guessed?
There is also this scholar Zhou, and his articles are indeed very good.
The county magistrate was very satisfied. Due to his identity, he did not publicly express his support for Zhou Yaozu, but did not ban the "Zhou Family Selection".
In this way, everyone will understand the meaning of the county magistrate.
"Zhou's Selection" became popular again and was sold out directly.
Boss Xue hurriedly arranged to increase the printing volume, but the supply was still in short supply.
By the end of the year, as soon as the settlement was settled, Boss Xue and Annie were shocked: What a good guy, he made more than 2,000 taels of silver.
Anne accounted for 40%, and divided more than 800 taels.
She didn't leave anything, and gave it to Zhou Jingxian and his wife.
The old couple almost got crazy and said to everyone that their boss was promising and made a lot of money by writing books.
The villagers were envious. Xiucai Zhou was so promising. He was a scholar and his son passed the exam this year. It is said that Xiucai Zhou successfully passed the exam with the books published by Xiucai Zhou.
Now I have made a lot of money. Tsk, the Zhou family is about to develop!
For a long time afterwards, Zhoujiaao and even the four miles and eight villages were filled with various rumors about the Zhou family—
Have you heard of it? The Zhou family bought another land. This year, it bought more than 100 acres, and it bought all the fertile land around Zhoujiaao.
It’s okay to buy land, but Zhou Xiucai also bought a shop and opened a hotel for his two brothers in the county town.
The dishes in the hotel are also recipes found by Sammi Zhou in an ancient book. They are novel and delicious. Once launched, they attract countless diners.
The business is amazing.
"It's better to study!" The villagers could not help but mutter when they saw the Zhou family's changes in just two or three years. They thought to themselves that after selling the food, they would send their little ones to a private school.
Although Zhou Yaozu has not passed the imperial examination yet, he has become the object of envy and respect for everyone.
