Chapter 408 Specialization in the industry
Sudden death? Still want to take the exam for a scholar?
Chen Hao sensed the system task and looked at the strong man speechlessly.
As the woman in the red dress said, this strong man was just a piece of powerful general material. Even if it was put in modern times, he should have been put in the military camp to join the army. What kind of scholar exam is this guy? He wouldn't have died suddenly after staying up late to study!
"Ahem, I want to study well. I have no limits to my knowledge. I can understand many truths by reading more and reading more. However, it is not easy to get into a scholar. There is no such thing as a scholar these days." Chen Hao said with a dry smile.
The strong man Jin Mengguan hurriedly said, "Don't worry about the scholar. I am mainly because I can't study in the secretary. I have been studying for more than a hundred years, and I can't even memorize the Three Character Classic."
Chen Hao: “…”
With his eyes on the woman in red dress, Chen Hao's expression was a little strange.
How are you kidding me? How many words are there for a three-character classic? Children's elementary school learning. No matter how stupid a child works hard, he can still memorize it. He has been using this guy for more than a hundred years, but he has not learned a three-character classic. Haha, just this brain, I'm a scholar, I'll show you a look.
The woman in the red dress smiled: "Lao Jin is the last wish of her parents. She will never give up her efforts for this. Fellow Taoist, if you can help it fulfill this wish, I will not charge you rent for this store."
Chen Hao was so amused that you still wanted to collect rent, haha, Lingxiang gave it to you for nothing, this is too greedy.
She called herself a general or an old ghost, which means she was an ancient general? It is said that ancient generals were greedy and deducted soldiers and even paid empty wages. Well, I have gained some knowledge.
"I'll try my best." Chen Hao didn't want to refute. After all, this Linghuan Street is really interesting. The first ghost I encountered was the ten-year mission. If there were a few more, the indicators of the century-old Taoist practice might be completed here.
The woman in the red dress smiled and said, "The general will not disturb you, the little fellow Taoist will do whatever he wants."
After saying that, it turned around leisurely.
After the woman in the red dress left, Chen Hao looked at Jin Meng and said, "Brother, I'll call you Lao Jin, is that okay?"
Official Jin Meng hurriedly said, "Yes, those who know me call me that."
Chen Hao said: "Lao Jin, are you going to take the exam for scholars because of your parents?"
Jin Mengguan nodded, with a trace of remembrance on his face, and said in a sad tone: "To be honest, it is also a family scandal, so ashamed to speak up~."
As he said that, Jin Mengguan told his story.
When he was a child, Jin Mengguan was born into a rural family. They were originally just ordinary families and lived a simple and satisfying life.
But everything changed from the generation of Jin Mengguan's father. Jin Mengguan's father had three siblings, and he was the eldest. Originally, the brother and sister had a good relationship and the family was harmonious. However, everything changed from the second brother and sister showing his talent for studying.
I don’t know if it’s education or a question of character. After studying, the second child started to ignore his elder brother. Occasionally, he didn’t know whether it was intentional or casually saying that they were not from the same class, and the eldest child was a muddy person all his life. This sentence hurts Jin Mengguan’s father’s heart.
Not only that, even his sister began to flatter his second brother and deliberately alienated him. This situation made Jin Mengguan's father feel disappointed and swore that even if he was selling his fortune, he would raise a scholar's son and let his son pass the exam for the scholar. Because although his second brother was smart in school, he stopped being a scholar and had only the identity of a Tongsheng.
So the name Jin Mengguan was born.
But Jin Mengguan's father never expected that he was stupid in his studies and his son was stupider than him. He was all big and thick, and he was good at doing farm work. Even the martial arts taught in the village were so good that he was very good. But he couldn't read.
That's fine, at most, everyone can't live with their own lives, and they can't starve to death without studying, right?
But Jin Mengguan's father did not expect that although the second brother who had been suppressed for half his life was a scholar, he gave birth to a son who passed the exam at a young age. Even the second brother who knew that he was raising his son's behavior even sarcastically at the village that a dragon gave birth to a dragon and a phoenix gave birth to a phoenix. If it is not that onion, don't have that kind of dream.
No one knows the conflict between the eldest and second brothers of the Jin family. This is obviously directed at the eldest and the second brothers of the Jin family.
As a result, Boss Jin was so angry that he vomited blood and could not survive the day.
At that time, it was Jin Mengguan, who was in a strong and qi, who went to the second uncle's house to question him. However, because the second uncle's son had a scholar's fame, all the additional benefits made the Jin family stand on the side of the second uncle's house. Jin Mengguan was furious, but he had no choice but to give up his favorite martial arts practice with sorrow and anger, and study hard, wanting to earn fame and wash away the shame.
Unfortunately, in that era, the war was in chaos and Jin Mengguan had not been studying for a long time. The area where they were located was targeted by a group of thieves and launched an attack in the late night.
How can an ordinary village resist thieves like ants? The entire village is trapped in blood and fire.
Speaking of this, Jin Mengguan sighed: "After death, my obsession was to fight for my parents, so I had no reincarnation and was obsessed with reading. However, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't read it. It was as if I was born to lack a tendon to read. Master, what should I do?"
After listening to the story of Jin Mengguan, Chen Hao was speechless.
This obsession actually comes from relatives, no wonder it is too embarrassed to speak up.
But if you think about it carefully, Chen Hao dared not say that this was the second uncle of Jin Mengguan. In ancient times, scholars were a very strange circle, especially in the Ming and Qing dynasties, scholars really looked down on merchants and poor peasants, as if after gaining fame, they immediately became the best man. This mentality exists in the thinking of almost every scholar. It is not surprising that Jin Mengguan’s second uncle was affected.
However, no matter what the reason is, it doesn’t matter. The only key now is that Jin Mengguan’s obsession is reading and fame.
It’s okay to be fame and fortune, but you can find a way to get a set of procedures to help him.
But this is not good at studying, so what should I do? Chen Hao himself said it was too bad, at least he was not a person who likes studying, otherwise he would not have gone to an ordinary university and would not have the right to help others study.
Especially this Jin Mengguan, who has been reading for 130 years, can't even memorize a Three Character Classic!
System boss, are you sure this task is only worth ten years?
Looking at Jin Mengguan's expectant eyes, Chen Hao thought for a while and said, "I don't know how to help you with reading, after all, I don't have a good idea for learning."
Jin Mengguan's eyes were dull, but he was not disappointed. After all, he understood that for more than a hundred years, he could not understand a book of Three Character Classics. He probably wasn't a material for reading.
"However, I can introduce you to a place where you can go to receive education, and maybe I can help you a little." Chen Hao continued.
Jin Mengguan's eyes lit up and he asked excitedly, "Master, where are you going?"
Chen Hao said: "Wushan, Sanshui Temple, I will prepare a book for you and take it there, and someone will arrange it at that time."
