Chapter 18 Reporting
Learn the manual during the day and compile the manual at night – Ning Weize has been very fulfilling over the past month.
Seven days before the assessment was left, Han Jinglun appeared again, urging the apprentice who was going to the assessment to pack his luggage.
The exam at this level of apprenticeship assessment is just an introductory exam from apprenticeship to Huang-level craftsman. Therefore, the court delegated the right to assess, and each county was organized by the county magistrate, as long as there were prefecture-level craftsmen present to participate in the formulation and evaluation.
Dingyuan County is a big county in Tong’an Prefecture. In addition to the prefecture, the next one is Dingyuan County. The current county magistrate named Zhao is now thirty-five and sixty years old, and he is at the age of pioneering and enterprising. He wants to make some achievements in every aspect to pave the way for future promotion.
The county’s assessment becomes more formal, which is almost the same as the rigorousness of the scientific examination. Candidates must go to the county capital, Dingyuan City, three days in advance to check their qualifications.
The examination room uses the special place for the imperial examination in the county – the Gongyuan. It is also only during the assessment period that craftsmen are eligible to enter the tribute school.
Candidates who pass the inspection will organize their belongings again within three days before the assessment to prepare for their food and clothing during the assessment. After entering the assessment, no one will be allowed to appear within three days except for cheating or other situations. During the assessment, each person has one room. After the assessment, all items must be evaluated in a blank name. After the score is finished, the results will be announced. The general process is exactly the same as the imperial examination.
Fortunately, Dingyuan City is not far from the town, and everyone walked slowly and could arrive in at most three days.
Ning Wei, who had experienced the college entrance examination in his previous life, had no fluctuations in his heart, while Aunt Zhou, who packed up Ning Wei, was so nervous. Sometimes he said he wanted to wear a suit for Ning Weize just in case, but sometimes he said that the thing was too heavy and picked up a pair of shoes from it, and tossed and turned around, exactly the same as his parents who were sent to the exam in his previous life.
“Auntie, why don’t you just go with me? Let’s move all the house!” Ning Wei teased in a slight way, but Aunt Zhou took it seriously and thought about the feasibility seriously.
Seeing the wicked smile on Ning Weize again, Aunt Zhou was so angry that she patted Ning Weize gently: “It’s all nonsense! It’s your first time to go far away. Aunt is just worried about you, for fear that you will suffer from grievance when you go out.”
Ning Weize looked serious: “Aunt, it’s mine. Don’t worry, Master Han will follow us. He is old, so there is definitely no problem!”
Aunt Zhou sighed, his eyes turned red: “It’s a pity that your mother went early, and I don’t understand. I can only help you so much. When you go out, you must follow Master Han closely and protect yourself…”
Ning Weize didn’t say anything, but just opened his arms and hugged Aunt Zhou.
The fourteen apprentices who participated in the assessment in Han’s Workshop gathered on time the next morning.
Han Jinglun stood in high spiritsIn front of the apprentice: “After these few months of tutoring, I believe everyone has a certain degree of understanding of the apprentice assessment. My second uncle will lead the team to Dingyuan County later. I hope everyone will win and promote the majesty of my Han family! If any apprentice passes the top three, the Han family will be rewarded with an additional ten taels of silver!”
The apprentices were instantly mobilized to fight.
“Ten taels of silver!” “So much.” “We Han’s first three are settled!”
Old Man Han poked his head out of the carriage at the door, called the students to set off, and waved to Ning Weize.
Ning Wei walked to the carriage obediently and looked up at Old Man Han.
Old Man Han stretched out his thumb and pointed to another carriage behind him: “The owner’s privilege.”
It is probably Han Jinglun’s arrangement again. Ning Weize smiled and did not refuse, and went straight into the car.
The space in the car is not large, but if you only sit in Ning Wei, it will be a bit space-like.
After estimating the space in the car, Ning Wei lifted the curtain of the car window, poked his head out of the car window and shouted, “Senior Brother Cao, Xiao Yezi, put all your luggage in the car, save effort!”
Xiao Yezi secretly looked at Old Man Han, who leaned against the carriage with his eyes closed and pretended that he was not hearing it. Xiao Yezi then ran over with a smile and threw the small package behind him into Ning Weize’s carriage: “Thank you Sister Ning, this is so light!”
After everyone else put the package, the coachman shook the whip and the group followed the car and headed towards the official road at the entrance of the town.
The wheels are round by round, and the car is shaking.
The time I arrived in Dingyuan City was exactly the third morning after departure.
Han family has a wooden shop in Dingyuan City. Every time people come to the city to do business, they will live in the shop.
The backyard of the wooden shop is not big, with three rooms in total: one is in charge, one is in charge, and one is in the old man Han himself, and the remaining apprentices are crowded on the largest one.
