Space Farming: Traveling through Ancient Times to Do Business

"Yes, we passed the exam and became scholars!" Several candidates looked at each other, their faces filled with excitement and surprise.

They had only heard of the name of this young talent before, but they did not expect that he would pass the imperial examination and become a scholar at the age of eleven. This was simply a miracle.

As one of the best among them, Yang Siqi praised Jiang Ziyu highly.

He nodded and said with satisfaction: "You are only eleven years old and you have passed the imperial examination. You really have a bright future! You have shown such talent at such a young age. You will definitely achieve great things in the future."

The other two candidates also echoed and expressed their sincere admiration for Jiang Ziyu's talent and achievements.

They knew that Jiang Ziyu's future was full of infinite possibilities, and he would be the pride of Jiangjia Village and even the entire town.

Their words made the villagers of Jiangjia Village cheer happily again.

Although they had already known the good news about Scholar Jiang Yuzhong, the confirmation from the three scholars seemed to add to the festive atmosphere and make the villagers even happier and prouder.

"Are you three gentlemen the juren?" The yamen runner looked at Yang Siqi, Shen Sitong and Liu Yujie, a gleam of recognition flashed in his eyes, as if he felt they looked familiar.

However, Yang Siqi, Shen Sitong and Liu Yujie had no impression of this yamen runner.

''right.''

"I was the one who announced the good news."

The yamen runner was originally tall and rough, with a loud voice and unfriendly tone, but when he saw Yang Siqi, Shen Sitong and Liu Yujie, his attitude took a 180-degree turn.

There was an expression on his face, as if he was a elder who was pleased to see his younger generation succeed. Although this expression seemed a little out of place on the yamen runner's face, it could still reveal his mood at the moment.

"Miss Jiang, the yamen runner has brought a letter. Why don't you give him a lucky gift quickly? He is waiting for her!" Zhong Ziqi reminded enthusiastically.

Jiang Xue finally woke up from her dream. She had indeed not considered paying the yamen runners a reward for their hard work.

It was gradually getting dark, and the yamen runners naturally would not stay for dinner, but according to etiquette, she should give them some hard work pay to express her gratitude to them.

"How much?" Jiang Xue asked in confusion.

Seeing this, Zhong Ziqi stepped forward and explained, "Just give as much as you think fit. If an ordinary country boy passed the imperial examination, he might only give one or two hundred coins, because they can't afford to give too much. But your family is well off, so you should be able to afford one or two taels of silver. Giving more will also help Jiang Yu in the future."

After listening to Yi An's words, Jiang Xue nodded to show that she understood.

She turned around and took out six taels of silver from the house, handed it to the yamen runner, and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Please accept this little money and have a cup of tea."

When the yamen runners saw Jiang Xue being so generous, they all showed satisfied smiles on their faces.

"The three scholars can go on with their work, we still have to go back to report." After receiving the silver, the yamen runners did not stay any longer. They originally came to deliver a message, and now that the letter had arrived, they prepared to return to the yamen.

"Goodbye, we won't see you off." Zhong Ziqi and others said goodbye to the yamen runners.

After the people from the yamen left, the villagers of Jiangjia Village gathered around. They were curious and wanted to see what was written on the scroll and what it looked like.

After all, for most villagers, this was the first time they had seen a scholar's certificate.

"Jiang Yu! Can you let us have a look at the things the government gave us?" a villager asked.

Jiang Yu smiled, pointed at the scroll in Jiang Xue's hand, and said, "Ask the third sister."

At this time, Jiang Xue was holding the reel carefully in her hand. She had been waiting for this result for a long time.

She gently unfolded the scroll, revealing a certificate written in exquisite calligraphy. The certificate detailed Jiang Yuzhong's experience and achievements as a scholar, as well as blessings for his future.

The villagers gathered around and vied to see this rare certificate.

"Fourth brother, did you really pass the imperial examination? It's true! It's true!" Jiang Bing excitedly waved the scroll in front of everyone. Then she excitedly ran to Jiang Yu, jumping and dancing with joy.

"Sister, fourth brother has passed the imperial examination and became a scholar!" Jiang Bing said while holding Jiang Xue's hand. Her face was full of joy, as if she wanted to tell everyone the good news.

Jiang Xue smiled and was genuinely happy for Jiang Yu: "I know. Congratulations, fourth brother! Your hard work has finally paid off."

Jiang Xue looked at the excited Jiang Bing and shook her head helplessly, but her eyes were also full of smiles: "But it's a good thing that you passed the exam. We have to celebrate tonight!"

"It's still early, Grandpa. Please send someone to notify everyone that there will be a pig-killing banquet tonight and the whole village will celebrate!" Jiang Xue turned and said to Grandpa Jiang.

"Kill pigs? The whole village?" Old Man Jiang hesitated, obviously considering the feasibility of this proposal.

"Yes, right in the threshing ground, and then ask someone to invite the village heads in the surrounding areas." Jiang Xue added.

"But, with so many people, where can we find so many pigs?" Old Master Jiang raised a practical question.

Jiang Xue smiled slightly and replied, "Grandpa, I'm afraid you have forgotten about the dozen wild boars we picked up in the mountains last time?"

Mr. Jiang was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and laughed: "I forgot about the dozen wild boars! I'll go make arrangements now."

Mr. Jiang left happily, and Jiang Xue turned to the others and said, "Everyone, help prepare. Tonight we are going to celebrate the great event of our fourth brother passing the imperial examination!"

The villagers agreed and started to get busy.

Some go to prepare ingredients, some go to arrange the venue, and some go to notify relatives and friends.

The entire Jiangjia Village was immersed in a festive and joyful atmosphere, and everyone was proud of Jiang Yuzhong's talent.

"Win?" Jiang Chen was stunned when she heard the news, as if she couldn't accept this sudden good news for a while.

"Milk?" Jiang Xue looked at Jiang Chen's reaction, feeling a little puzzled, not knowing why she was so shocked.

She shouted several times, but Jiang Chen didn't react, as if she was still immersed in shock.

Suddenly, Jiang Chen jumped up and shouted excitedly: "Yu'er passed? Is it true? Yu'er really passed the exam and became a scholar?" Her face was filled with unconcealable joy and pride, and her voice trembled with excitement.

"Yes, grandma, I passed the imperial examination." Jiang Yu's voice was full of excitement and joy, and his eyes were sparkling with tears, tears of happiness and pride.

When Jiang Chen heard this affirmative answer, she was so excited that she could not control herself. She hugged Jiang Yu tightly, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"Good boy, I knew you could do it! You are the pride of our Jiang family!" Jiang Chen's voice was choked with sobs, and her words were full of pride and satisfaction for her grandson.
