It has been ten days since Chu Ci issued the order. On this day, if anyone returns to the Tixuesi Department’s yamen, waiting for Chu Ci to announce the result.

At that time, he said that those who perform well will be rewarded, but those who are in prison will be punished. These days, everyone has to submit the registration form sent to them by Chu Ci every day, and ten children can be registered on a piece of paper.

Now, they stood below, and the piles of papers on the table above were the registration form they submitted. Looking at these papers, they unconsciously felt a little expectation and nervousness.

"Have everyone arrived?" Chu Ci walked in with a smile. Xiao Si and Xiao Wu, who were following him, were carrying a large iron piece, and were struggling to move in.

The officials blocking the door were stunned for a moment, and retreated half a beat, then reacted again, stepped forward and took a hand and carried the iron piece in.

Chu Ci asked them to carry the iron piece next to the table, place it obliquely, and face them with the black one.

The officials looked at the big iron lump and didn't know what it was for. Could it be that this was also part of the punishment? Some people began to think divergently.

Then they watched as Master Tixue fumbled underneath, and the thing suddenly unfolded and turned into a long piece with three more legs supporting it.

"Isn't this...it's just a blackboard?" Someone looked at it for a long time, then suddenly screamed like an enlightenment.

"Blackboard?" Others were talking, what was this blackboard? "Mr. Dong, do you know this?"

"I also heard it by chance. A cousin I just came back from the capital two months ago. I heard that there are many of these things in the capital, not only the academies, but also the places where notices are posted at the gates of the four major cities and streets and alleys are posted.

There are all. However, there are people guarding those places, and they move back when it gets dark, which makes it very tight."

His cousin sighed regretfully when he spoke this. It was this tone that made Lord Dong understand why they were watching so tightly.

"This... the blackboard is right, how is it used?"

Lord Dong said: "I heard that you can write on this and wipe it off after writing. In the past, when Beijing posted notices, there were many streets, so many copies were copied every time. Now we only need to be afraid of holding the notice a few times.

Copying it on this blackboard allows everyone to know that this thing is also used in the academy to teach, and the effect is good. Kyoto Imperial College is using it! My cousin also heard that the court intends to promote this thing in various prefectures and prefectures, and specifically

He chose several provinces in Jiangnan and sent people from the Ministry of Works to build it. However... I didn't hear that there are also in Nanmin Province." He looked at Chu Ci unconsciously, and didn't know where the blackboard of Master Tixue came from

of.

"Writing?" Someone questioned, "The ink is black. Can you still see clearly when you write it on this blackboard? And it's difficult to wipe it clean, right?"

"No, this thing is not written in a brush. I heard that it is made of...chalk, chalk!"

A pink brush suddenly appeared in everyone's mind, and they really couldn't imagine what this chalk was.

"Tsk, I said, don't guess randomly. Since we can get the blackboard, we will naturally have that chalk. Sir, I wonder if you can open my eyes and see how this chalk is written?

"Wang Ming said flatteringly. He is from the Bimofang, so he naturally cares more about the blackboard than others.

Chu Ci has been listening to them just now, but he still doesn't know that those people in Beijing have developed other functions. In fact, Beijing now has two types of blackboards, one is the embedded blackboard used in the academy.

The type is the folding style here in Chu Ci. But it is true that the ancients never had bad ideas and hands-on ability. With a little tip, they will definitely give you a surprise.

"Okay, you guys are ready." Chu Ci opened the secret wall below and pulled out a white chalk from it, thought about it, and then wrote the six words "Ti Xuesi of Zhangzhou Prefecture" on it.

Chalk hit the blackboard and made a "da da da" sound, and the officials below stared at the eye-catching white words on it.

Everyone says black and white words, but now it seems that the black words are written in white words are clearer.

"Isn't it chalk? Why is it white?" someone asked in a low voice.

Chu Ci explained: "This chalk is not a pink pen, but when it is written, the powder falls down, so it is called chalk. Moreover, it is not just a color. Please see, in this box of colored chalk

There are seven colors in total."

He took out each one and drew a heavy painting. Seven different colors were printed on the blackboard, which looked a bit fancy. The most amazing thing was that Chu Ci took out a chalk brush and brushed it gently, and it immediately appeared on it.

A rainbow.

"Can this be used for painting?" someone shouted in surprise. When he used a brush to draw, he could not draw such a flying rainbow.

"Of course." Chu Ci said while pulling out a few pieces of chalk and painting it. After a while, a back with a red umbrella appeared in front of everyone. Draw the figure with a fluttering skirt and looking at it.

Going up is sacred and light, as if she will become immortal in the next moment.

"The adults painted it so well. Such a hard pen can make it so easy."

"I will practice more." Chu Ci smiled and put the chalk back into the box, then wiped the words and drawings on it with the blackboard brush. "I will put a blackboard at the door, and everyone will click it every time in the future.

Don’t even name the name, just sign the same name under the column of your name. In the past, I would like to inform you of any news and I would also send someone to write it on it. But today, we have other things to do.

Do."

Chu Ci put his hand casually on the table and pointed it out, indicating that everyone should not forget their purpose for the meeting today.

Everyone followed his hand and came to their senses. Their purpose today was to see how many children they had persuaded to enter school.

"Then, sir..."

Before the man could ask, Chu Ci took the lead and said, "You have submitted these registration forms. Because of the large number, I only recorded the daily numbers and never recorded who submitted them.

Therefore, I don’t know much about how many children each advised to enter school.”

As soon as Chu Ci finished speaking, the faces of the people below changed. Some frowned, while others were ecstatic. The frowned basically completed a lot. I heard that Chu Ci didn't count and was worried that he would suffer a loss.

.

The ecstatic people are naturally ready to let others suffer losses. They didn't go to persuade them, and Chu Ci had to settle the score now. They thought it was over, but they didn't expect that there would be such a good thing.

However, they were obviously too happy. Because Chu Ci said again, "But don't worry, everyone, although I have not registered my name, I have a number on the registration form you took away, and I can recognize it according to the number later.

”

"..." The person who was about to recognize a few photos with a thick face, didn't say this at that time. Why was his mind so bad?

"Since everyone knows it, let's start now." Chu Ci said, taking out a piece of chalk and writing down all the numbers between one and thirty-nine on the blackboard.

"Mr. Zhou, please come here and do some help and read out the numbers on it one by one."

Zhou Qing, who was named, hurriedly walked upwards. He was not surprised that Chu Ci would look for him, because he was already responsible for receiving and hosting matters.

"Sir, can you start now?"

Chu Ci nodded.

Zhou Qing picked up a piece of paper, looked at the words in the lower left corner of the registration form, and said, "There are ten people with numbers."

Chu Ci drew a horizontal line under No. 1's name and said, "The next thing is, just report a copy of No. 1."

Zhou Qing nodded understandingly, picked up the next one, and recited: "No. 3, one copy."

Chu Ci drew a horizontal line under his name.

“One number one.”

"One copy of No. 5."

“…”

"One copy of the twenty-sixth."

As the paper on the table decreased, the words written on Chu Ci also became regular characters. Although officials did not understand what the meaning of regular characters was, this did not prevent them from comparing them.

It seems that No. 1 persuades the most children to enter school, and they have written a full one and a half words, but there is not even a horizontal line under certain numbers. Unfortunately, there is only a number on it, and they don’t know who that person is. It is even possible that it is possible that there are even numbers on it.

They themselves didn't know, because when the registration form was sent, Chu Ci did not let them pay attention to this.

More than 100 pieces of paper were finished in half a quarter of an hour. Looking at the above results, everyone knew very clearly that the three people who were rewarded this time were definitely No. 1, No. 10 and No. 25, and they were punished.

There are more, namely six, seven, and thirty-six, because these numbers don’t even have a horizontal line.

Chu Ci carefully wiped his fingers with a wet cloth handed over by Xiao Si, and then he said: "Does anyone know what number they are? If there is, stand up?"

Eight people stood up, and when they finished speaking, everyone realized that the most number of No. 1, No. 1, No. 1 and No. 25 were among them.

"Yes, everything is right. You have observed it very carefully. Each person will be rewarded with a pound of fish balls. I will send them to you after the meeting later."

Although I don’t know what the fish balls are, there is no reason why I don’t like the rewards on the top of the peak, so the eight people immediately thanked the rewards, with their attitudes being more sincere than the other.

"Okay, now I will match the number with the name. Whoever I click will come up later. No. 1 Xie Shi'an, No. 2..." After reading it, Chu Ci put away the note in his hand and the

The expression also became serious from the peace just now.

"I believe everyone heard it very clearly when they attended the meeting last time. In addition to the conditions that had been agreed before, the awardees also had the A-level examination at the end of the year, including the promotion of official officials to official positions, and the officials would do it.

But I have always been clear about rewards and punishments. Since the reward has been promised, the agreed punishment method will definitely be achieved. Now please come up, please come up with the adults, Liuqi□□136.”

Liuqi□□ was the mahjong four-person group that day. They all relied on someone behind their backs to make decisions, so they didn’t take Chu Ci’s words to heart, and spent all the ten days on the game world. Including now

They also thought that Chu Ci would only bring shame upon themselves if he called them up, so they went up openly. And Thirteen Sixteen relied on his own as an old man from the Tixue Department and kept complaining about his pain to Chu Ci.

But his feet didn't even move.

"I am ashamed!" Chu Ci suddenly sighed, "As the Shangfeng, I didn't expect that Lord Zhang and Lord Li had so many housework to deal with, and even assigned errands to you. It's really not right.

!However, since ancient times, everyone has said that self-cultivation and family management and country governing the world. If the two adults can't even handle family affairs well, how can they govern the country and world be? That's it. I'll give the two adults a day, if the two adults deal with it

After the family affairs are done, I will go to handle the errands and hand them over within three days. If the two adults cannot handle the family affairs well, then I can only give the two people a few days off first, when will they be done and when will they go back to the yamen.

go."

He said with a smile, his tone was gentle and his face was nice, but it sounded cold in his heart. This was clearly a threat to them.

Facing Chu Ci's threat, Zhang and Li finally decided to know the current affairs as a hero. Yan Ming went back and handled the family affairs cleanly and then began to persuade him to study.

Chu Ci nodded with satisfaction, with a sensible expression. Then, he turned to the people and raised his eyebrows.

However, before he could speak, the few spoke first: "Does Lord Chu also want me to wait to go back to deal with the housework?"
