Houfu Key Class

The money power of the Marquis Yuanyang Mansion is not false. Just by reporting their names, three or five Juren came to apply for the job. But they seemed to have discussed it beforehand, and each one was more stubborn than the other.

"I am the Juren who just passed the provincial examination last year. Many rich young masters wanted to worship me as their teacher, but I didn't agree."

"Everyone is a Juren in this session, but I am the only one who passed the examination in my class. Our county magistrate personally came to invite me to be his teacher."

"I am a teacher in the best academy in the capital. Most of the students who passed the exam in each session are from our academy. If you want to teach children, you need a professional teacher."

"Forget it. Everyone passed the exam in this session. You have only been a teacher for more than a year. What does it have to do with you if the students in the academy passed the exam in the past?"

"Why doesn't it have anything to do with me? There must be many students who passed the exam in the next session who were taught by me!"

"Boasting!"

"Who are you talking about bragging? How can the affairs of scholars be called bragging? "

"..."

Xu Wan sat on the table and watched them arguing. She knocked on the table and said, "Dear scholars, can you get to the point... Are you willing to come to our mansion to teach our children?"

"It depends on how sincere your mansion is. I have a good life in Hanlin Academy."

"That's right. If we become officials, we will be very impressive."

"If your housekeeper hadn't invited us too sincerely, we wouldn't want to come. Private teachers have never received any fame bonus, and it is his own honor if the students pass the exam."

There are two people who are waiting and watching, but like the previous three, they want to see what the mansion says.

Cuizhi frowned and lowered her head and said, "Madam, why are these people like this? Isn't it said that scholars are very upright and regard money as dirt?"

Xu Wan chuckled and replied, "People eat grains and cereals, and they must have seven emotions and six desires. They also have families and children, and they also need to support their families."

As workers, they can understand each other's feelings. As long as the money is in place, everything is fine.

She said seriously, "Everyone, our Houfu prepares a monthly silver of one hundred taels for private teachers for a period of three years, and signs a contract as an alliance."

"One hundred taels for three years, this is a bit low..."

"One hundred taels a month for three years, are you deaf!"

"Ah? One hundred taels a month??"

"One hundred taels a month??"

The juren masters were stunned. They counted on their fingers: one hundred taels a month, one thousand two hundred taels a year, three thousand six hundred taels in three years...

Oh my God!

If you can earn this money, you can't spend it all in your lifetime!

Another scholar who was doubting his life asked the person next to him: "How much is your monthly salary at Hanlin Academy? Do all teachers make that much now?"

"Eight... eight taels... but other academies are even worse, four or five taels are considered high..."

The scholars were shocked!

They said in unison: "I'll take this job!"

"Let me do it! I have experience of passing the imperial examination once, and I will definitely help the young master pass the imperial examination before he reaches the age of twenty!"

"I, I, I! I have experience teaching at Hanlin Academy, and it's hard for the students I teach not to pass the exam!"

"You only have one year of teaching experience..."

"That's better than you, a scholar who has an idle job at home!"

The five people started arguing again, vying to apply for the job.

Xu Wan sighed in her heart, and lamented that it's still good to have money.

One hundred taels is equivalent to 100,000 yuan in modern times. If someone offered her 100,000 yuan to be a tutor when she was working, she would definitely fight for it.

"My mansion only recruits two teachers. Please write a resume of your study and examination experience, and we will make a comprehensive selection." Xu Wan arranged, "Cuizhi, take them to the side hall to write."

"Yes."

"By the way," Xu Wan added, smiling, "Our Yuanyang Marquis' Mansion has a good relationship with the Ministry of Rites. If there are people who falsify their resumes, don't blame us for not reminding them in advance."

The candidates looked at each other, some of them buried their heads in writing with guilt, while some cast a look of approval at Xu Wan.

This is the best, otherwise everyone will have to make up stories for this high monthly salary.

But when they left, Cuizhi was a little anxious. She whispered to remind them: "Madam, we don't have any connections in the Ministry of Rites..."

Let alone the connections in the Ministry of Rites, their mansion has not been involved in worldly affairs for too long, and other families don't have much contact with them. Even if they want to ask for help, they can't find a suitable one.

Xu Wan exclaimed, "If we are familiar with the Ministry of Rites, can they really help us find the imperial examination records of all students?"

Cuizhi: "..." No... can't they?

Then did the lady cheat them? ?

Xu Wan thought, maybe it is possible. Putting aside whether it is a leak, the candidates come from all over the country, and the workload of checking the files is not small.

She smiled and said, "When a resume is written, it can not only show a person's experience, but also his writing style, thinking logic, and even his reading style. And these things cannot be faked."

"Can the lady see these?" Cuizhi asked.

Xu Wan shook her head and said truthfully: "I may not be able to read it all by myself, so I need to ask Master Baili to help me look at it."

"Then I will ask them to go back and wait for notification after they finish writing. If they decide to hire them, I will send someone to deliver the letter of appointment to them, and then let them bring the letter of appointment to the mansion to sign the contract."

"I think it's okay."

Cuizhi smiled and said: "I will arrange it right away."

Seeing that she went to the side hall, Xu Wan got up and went to the main study to tell Baili Xi.

The two children studying in the big study arrived neatly.

Bailixi's mental state improved significantly when he was teaching. He spoke with great emotion when telling allusions, and stroked his beard from time to time. He seemed to be in a good mood.

Zong Wenxiu in the audience listened carefully and took notes from time to time.

Looking at Zong Jincheng again, the brat was quite energetic. He was scribbling on the paper with a brush in one hand. He looked like he wasn't paying attention to the lecture, but his eyes hadn't moved.

I was busy doing two things at once, but I didn’t miss the lectures.

Xu Wan sighed, such a smart child is so enviable and helpless.

In the room, Baili ridiculed: "Okay, that's it for today's lesson. You can write down what you learned yesterday. I will take it away after you finish."

After saying that, he yawned on it, held his face with one hand, closed his eyes and tried to sleep for a while.

Xu Wan thought that Baili Xi had been really tired recently. After studying hard, the little devil always had endless questions to ask. It didn't matter that he was so energetic all day long, but he was so tired that Baili Xi looked obviously older. This is one of the reasons why she wants to hire two more personal trainers.

Just when she was thinking about how to get the two personal trainers to cooperate with Baili Xi in educating Zong Jincheng, she saw the little devil who was supposed to be writing silently, holding a brush in one hand and tiptoeing toward the podium——

His eyes were staring at Baili Xi's gray beard.

Xu Wan: "!!!"

Damn it, the ink on the nib is still red! ! !
