Don't move, this child bride is not easy to mess with.

In fact, the eight-part essay of this dynasty did have certain restrictions on these readers.

There is no absolutely perfect mechanism for selecting talents, only relatively feasible ones. For truly talented people, this limitation does not stifle spirituality.

For example, in the college entrance examination, even though there were certain questions, there was embarrassing news that even the author himself could not get a high score. If you don't determine a standard answer, how will you grade it?

Chinese language has a unique answer unlike other subjects, but since the exam must have a relative standard. This is just a solution that has no other solution.

Moreover, the interpretation of literary works is inherently different. After the author publishes the work, some meanings may not be his original intention, but they do exist.

The imperial examination and the college entrance examination are the fairest talent selection mechanisms at different times.

Only people with ordinary talents will gradually become nerds due to these restrictions. Memorizing a lot of classics, but not thinking about the profound meaning of those words, is naturally high-minded and ignorant of practical matters.

The reason why classics are classics is because the sages and sages summarized various laws, principles, and speculations.

Li Fan studied hard and knew the classics involved in the imperial examination by heart. However, he remembered these sentences and even knew which book and article they were from, but he was not clear about the meaning behind them.

In the past three months, Mulanzhai earned another five thousand taels of silver for Su Mulan. In addition to the 20,000 taels that he started to complete the system tasks and the 3,000 taels that he saved later, he now has a huge sum of 28,000 taels.

However, this is not the end.

"The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Slayer" was also rewritten by her and was still delivered to Luming Bookstore in Qinghan Mansion. With the first two being huge hits, this third one is even more popular.

Just because now the Condor Trilogy has spread further and has more readers. Especially students from private schools, schools, academies, government schools and other places all over the country are rushing to buy them eagerly.

Su Mulan was originally worried that these scholars would be banned by the master and the government because reading novels would affect their careers.

Unexpectedly, these masters were no less enthusiastic about these three books than those students. Even the officials and servants in government offices in various places are loyal book fans.

What Su Mulan didn't expect the most was that a large number of petty officials and government servants who were originally involved in the officialdom and were only interested in personal gain were influenced by the ideas in the novel and transformed.

Even many of the idle hooligans and bullies in various places have been affected. Regardless of what is going on inside, everyone talks about the great chivalrous person who serves the country and the people.

When encountering injustice, few people used to speak out. Now it's incredible, he really screams when he sees injustice on the road. Take action when it's time to take action.

Although there were more fights than usual, the folk customs were greatly improved. It is said that even the current emperor has read the first two novels, but only in secret.

Luming Bookstore has become so famous that it is not only famous in Qinghan Mansion, but also has newly established branches of Luming Bookstore in several nearby provinces.

Small bookstores in various states and counties are like flies, and they have sent people to discuss cooperation with local branches to undertake local sales business.

When Su Mulan moved to Anlan County, she naturally notified Luming Bookstore. Shopkeeper He was so shrewd that he knew that this was the God of Wealth, so he opened the branch to Anlan County two months ago.

Just to get Su Mulan's manuscript as soon as possible.

The popularity of the third volume has boosted the momentum of the first two volumes, and Luming Bookstore has reprinted, reprinted, and reprinted again and again.

Su Mulan estimated that the remuneration would be tens of thousands of taels if the settlement was completed this time. As a result, after the settlement a few days ago, Luming Bookstore actually settled 20,000 taels of silver directly!

When Su Mulan asked, the branch manager of Anlan County said it was the order from the headquarters manager He. The share of the additional printing of the first two volumes has been settled together.

Since money doesn't bite your hand, the more the better.

After Su Mulan accepted the money settled by the bookstore, her net worth was close to fifty thousand taels. This is not counting the value of the gold.

However, compared with making this money, another thing made her worried.

It rained in Anlan County in July, but August passed without a drop of rain.

It is said that droughts and floods are determined on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, and harvests are determined on the fifteenth day of the eighth month.

It is a foregone conclusion that the field production will decrease this year!

As early as two months ago, Su Mulan had sent a message through Wang Sanhaier, suggesting that Xie Chengan make plans early and start purchasing grain in advance.

Although the weather was uncertain at that time, Su Mulan knew in advance that there would be a natural disaster through system tasks.

However, she didn’t know that even if Xie Chengan believed her, the county government had no money to collect food!

Make bricks without straw.

The entire Anlan County Yaxia tax is still in arrears, and the cash in hand is only three to four thousand taels.

That's it, it's pretty good. Qingsong County, where Su Mulan lived before, often had less than a thousand taels of silver in cash a year.

I heard that even worse, not only did they have no balance, but they also owed money, which was what later generations called a fiscal deficit.

What should I do if I have no money? You can't thank Chengan for becoming the county magistrate and still have Jiang's family, right?

Although as long as her two sons opened their mouths, Jiang would definitely be willing to help, and she even took the initiative to give them money.

However, this is a large county, and there is no way Jiang can afford to fill the hole for more than 100,000 people.

It wasn't until there was two light rains in July that Xie Chengan breathed a sigh of relief. It seems to be a normal year, so there is no need to panic.

Although he liked Su Mulan, he was not a brainless person after all, so there was no way he could listen to her in everything. Therefore, the plan to purchase grain was abandoned because the county government had no money.

The summer tax has been sent through the courier. At first, Jiang Ruiyan contacted twenty or thirty squires, wealthy businessmen, and landlords in the county, but the money and food he raised was pitiful.

In the end, it was Yuan Tong who contributed a large amount of money and food to collect the summer tax. The deceased in the inn murder case was none other than Tong Yuanwai's eldest son.

After three months of investigation, it was determined that Tong Juren was murdered. It seemed that he had mastered someone's important privacy and wanted to go to the capital to report it, so he was killed.

The murder of Mr. Wang, the former magistrate of Anlan County, was also related to this matter. It means that the actual mastermind behind both cases is one person, or a force.

Although the combined investigation of two murder cases has more concentrated manpower, it is actually more difficult.

It was Member Tong who provided Jiang Ruiyan with some important clues.

As far as he knew, the person standing behind the county Prime Minister Mei Mingtang was Mei Liangxin, the head of the Ministry of Rites. The person in charge is Xia Heishou, but the person standing behind him is Zhong Jiaqian, the head of the Ministry of Personnel.

And the person behind these two principals is Guo Xuan, the Minister of Civil Affairs!

Jiang Ruiyan still doesn't understand that Anlan County is the small treasury of Guo Xuan, the Minister of Civil Affairs!

Wang Zhixian and Tong Juren must have some evidence in their hands, and they were silenced because they touched the nerves of these people.

As for Zhao Jingzi of the former Qianhu household and his horse thieves, I'm afraid they just took the blame.

After all, after a murder occurs, it is not difficult to lead suspicion to them as long as the scene is arranged. What's more, after the mutiny of Qianhusuo, there were military households who fled to the mountains and became bandits.

They are all good targets for frame-up.
