In June, Jiangnan entered the scorching summer season, but for the students of the county school, they also entered a period of destiny.

There is an important exam in June, the county exam, which is equivalent to the graduation exam for county schools. The county exam is usually not too difficult and is much simpler than the entrance exam. However, if you fail the exam, the consequences are serious, which means you will lose the opportunity to take the imperial examination.

Not everyone can sign up for the test, and recommendations are also required. There are usually two ways to recommend. One is to recommend a county school, and the second is to get recommendations of more than two juren.

To get recommendations from a county school, you must first pass the county school exam. This is the biggest threshold. If you have a problem with your character, such as suspected crimes, even if you pass the county school exam, you will not recommend taking the county school exam.

Of course, if you fail the county exam, you can also find two juren to recommend you. But the problem is, if you fail the county exam, who will be willing to recommend you? Juren also cherishes their reputation.

Therefore, although the county exam is not difficult, every student attaches great importance to it. Before dawn, many students are studying hard all over the campus.

"Fan Ning, I heard you are going to open a cram school again?" As soon as he left the dormitory, Su Liang caught up and asked with a smile.

"Is it Lu Youwei said?" Fan Ning could guess where the news was leaked without thinking.

"this....."

Su Liang hesitated and said, "Don't worry about where it leaked, just tell me if it's true?"

"It's not enough to hold a cram school, I just want to take some time to give them some key points."

"Fan Ning, Duan Yu and I want to come and listen, look--"

"Yes!" Fanning agreed happily.

"You won't ask us to call you senior brother too, right?" Su Liang asked with a smile.

"Depending on your mood."

Fanning couldn't help but smile and said, "You are willing to call me senior brother, but I don't object."

"Think about it! When and where to make up for the lessons?"

"I'm still looking for a place, but it really doesn't work. I'll mention it to everyone in the dormitory."

The two of them speeded up and walked towards the class.

There are less than three months left before the solution test, and this is the most nervous time for all students. The four chief professors have begun to take special care of their disciples and set questions in a targeted manner.

Of course, Fan Ning also needs to take special care of his six junior brothers. In fact, he is very clear about the content of this year's test, but he cannot tell several junior brothers all four questions.

The answer is not a county school admissions exam. If the answer is a bet on the county school exam, no one will hold any responsibility, but the answer is different. If all bets on the answers, it will definitely cause big trouble.

The leak of imperial examination questions has always been a major case. It is not only a disqualification of the juren, but may even bring prison to oneself and his companions.

Fanning repeatedly considered it, and he decided to do something about the countermeasures.

Among the four questions of the solution test, writing poems and silent scriptures is actually meaningless. Most candidates will do well, and more than 90% of the candidates cannot distance themselves from these two questions.

The key is the third question, the analytic topic. The candidates start to differentiate from the analytic topic and gradually distance themselves. However, because the score of the analytic topic is not large, it is meaningless to bet on the analytic topic.

However, the countermeasure questions account for nearly half of the scores. Whether you can pass the Juren exam is mainly reflected in the level of the countermeasure questions.

If you don’t answer the countermeasures questions well, it doesn’t make sense no matter how good the other three questions are.

Fanning gave everyone a lesson in his dormitory. He moved the tables, chairs and screens away, leaving a large area.

The reason why we need to talk about countermeasures more than two months in advance is that the countermeasures should be combined with reality and it takes a lot of time to prepare.

Everyone sat casually, some were sitting on the bed, some brought a few chairs to sit down, and Akihito and Mingli simply sat cross-legged on the ground.

Fanning stood at a small table in front and said to everyone calmly:

"There are less than three months left to get the test. I have been paying attention to everyone's achievements in the past two years. It should be said that everyone has made great progress.

But the answer test is not a county school exam after all. More than 3,000 candidates in Pingjiang Prefecture took the exam, and in the end only 50 people passed the exam. Only one person was admitted out of 60 people.

Moreover, there are many excellent people. The answer is not difficult, mainly because the competition is too fierce. Not to mention everyone, I am not sure that I can pass the answer."

When Fanning said this, he looked at everyone's expressions again. Seeing that everyone's expression was complicated and there was a hint of heavy eyes, this was a sign of lack of confidence.

Fan Ning smiled and continued, "Yesterday Mingren asked me if I could beat the test question this time. I said I am not a god, how could I know what the test will take? However, when I gave the first day of tutoring, I said that everything has its own rules. If I can find the rules, maybe it can narrow the scope. Today I will briefly talk about the countermeasures questions."

Fanning took out a note and gave it to everyone to circulate.

"This note is a solution strategy that I have compiled for half a year. It is the essence of the ten-year secret lessons of the four chief professors. It is not the content of each secret lesson. I have compiled a total of twelve secret lessons, such as how to write argumentative essays, how to grasp the center of countermeasures, tips for writing poetry, etc.

For example, the last secret lesson Zhang Yi gave to his disciples three years ago is very meaningful.”

Fanning turned over the last few pages of the notes and handed them over to everyone.

"Zhang Yi has no other skills, but he has unique insights on some tricks to solve the problem. For example, he said that before doing the test, it is best to find an excuse to go out for a walk, such as an excuse to go to the toilet, and his thoughts will be broader after walking. I think this suggestion is very good. He summarized a total of eighteen tips to solve the problem, which is very interesting. You can take a look."

Fan Ning's notes were in Su Liang's hands, and everyone rushed forward to look at the contents of the notes. Mingren sighed: "This is a good thing! You can't buy it even if you have fifty cents of money."

"I guess I can make a lot of money!" Mingli was also amazed.

"This note is about 20,000 words, and everyone will copy one after another. However, I want to warn some people not to use it to make money. If the content of my lecture is leaked, don't blame me for turning against others!"

Speaking of this, Fan Ning glared at Akihito and Mingli with a stern look.

"You can't just make a joke?" Akihito muttered in a low voice.

"That's right, let's liven up the atmosphere!" Mingli also added in a low voice.

Fan Ning ignored the two of them and continued: "The previous test solution question was "On the Profits of the Canal in Jiangnan". This time, I personally think the countermeasure question will focus on "Pushing for Farmers". When you go back, you should prepare this information carefully and then go to Pingjiang Prefecture to learn about it."

Duan Yu raised his hand and asked in confusion: "Why do senior brother think that the exam will encourage farmers?"

Fan Ning shook his head and smiled, "This is just my personal calculating question. I don't want to say much about the basis for the calculating question for the time being. Of course, you can't just prepare for my question, and you have to consider it from multiple sources. However, since everyone calls me a senior brother, as a senior brother, I also have the obligation to help you calculating questions."

"Senior brother, isn't it too early to call the question now?"

Su Liang also raised his hand and said, "As far as I know, it is usually ten days before the exam. In the last secret class, the chief professor will give his disciples a few questions, but now it is almost three months."

Su Liang said it was very implicitly because the examiner of the examination carried out the examination and was appointed by the states, and the imperial court would usually decide the examiner of the prefectures half a month before the examination.

For example, the chief examiner of Pingjiang Prefecture Examination Three years ago was Wang Lan, the teacher of Yangzhou Prefecture, and he did not secretly come to Pingjiang Prefecture Examination Institute until ten days before the exam.

At this time, all the chief professors of the county school will get some information through their own channels, and then judge the scope of his questions based on the examiner's preferences and daily words and deeds.

Now that there are still three months left before the answer test, it is impossible to know who the examiner will be. Fan Ning has actually started to bet on the questions. To be honest, Fan Ning's bet on the questions has no basis.

Of course Fan Ning knew that he had only started appointing the chief examiner half a month before the exam, and it was a bit difficult to convince people to take the exam now.

But the problem is that the countermeasures test is students' thoughts on national affairs and economy and people's livelihood. If the questions are only half a month before the exam, the students will not have time to investigate and practice.

For example, the Pingjiang Prefecture’s countermeasure nine years ago was “On the Pros and Disadvantages of Official Tea Method”, which made most of the candidates batter. How many people understand the “Official Tea Method”?

For example, the countermeasures for the imperial examination three years ago was "On the Profits of the Canal in Jiangnan". Zhang Yi obtained the title three days in advance through his brother's channel, and leaked the title to dozens of his disciples on the condition that each person received twenty guan.

But what happened? It was not too late to understand the situation of the canal in three days, which made it meaningless for the student to get the questions in advance, and none of his disciples passed the exam.

So even though Fanning knew that the content of the countermeasures for this test was "Pusing Farmers", he still wanted to tell everyone early and let everyone prepare early.

Fan Ning smiled and said, "When I was chatting with Wang County Magistrate, I learned that the court has had very strict requirements on officials' assessments in the past two years, far exceeding the past, so I intuitively told me that this year's test solution questions are related to persuading farmers."
