Chapter 831: The No. 1 Scholar

Zhang Yu has undoubtedly promoted the reform of talent acquisition, and no one can go against this trend.

The aristocratic family has been unable to stop the rise of the civilian class, it can only delay the speed of the rise.

In Jiangdong, Zhou Yu approached Sun Ce and said, "Bo Fu, you should return to Jiangdong as soon as possible to take charge of the overall situation. You can transfer Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai over."

Sun Ce said: "Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai are secretly training the navy. If there is a war with Jiangdong in the future, they can be used as surprise soldiers. They can be transferred here to influence the plan."

Zhou Yu also knows the importance of this plan, but at present he can only abandon it.

"Bo Fu, if the imperial examinations are not held as soon as possible, Zhang Yu will gather all the talents, and this loss may be even greater."

After listening to Zhou Yu's words, Sun Ce pondered for a long time, and finally said: "Okay, then let them both come over, and I'll go back, but when you stabilize here, you also need to go back and help me."

"Okay, Bofu should leave as soon as possible. This Zhuge Jin has a deep study of Jiangdong, which can be reused. Let him preside over it." Zhou Yu said.

Sun Ce was no longer suspicious, and went to arrange personnel to adjust things.

The reactions of the princes were relatively large. At the beginning, no one expected that there would be so many people taking the exam, let alone that the impact would be so great.

At this moment, Jiang Dong was nervously grading papers.

The marking of papers has basically been completed, and now they are sorting and arranging the candidates.

Zhang Yu didn't go there for a few days, but he went when it was time to determine the champion.

After arriving, several people were discussing there, obviously it was also a difficult problem for sorting.

Zhang Zhao was also there, and after seeing Zhang Yu coming, he took the initiative to report to Qianhui: "My lord, the examination papers are over, but there are so many people, it is not easy to come first in line."

Too many people paid attention to this imperial examination, if they can't be convinced, something might happen.

Zhang Yu gathered several people together, and then said: "I have a suggestion, that is, for the top 30, we not only publish the test papers, but also invite several examiners to write comments and publish them together."

Publishing the candidates' test papers can indeed stop most of the chatter.

unconvinced,

Then compare your own answer with others' answer, is the gap obvious?

This can dispel the suspicion of insiders for many people.

Coupled with the comments of several bigwigs, I am still not convinced. Unless you can produce clear evidence, it is completely untenable.

The reputation of the three elders can withstand many open and dark arrows, at least most of the princes and most of the celebrities dare not openly question it.

The three elders and Chen Gong both agreed with Zhang Yu's plan, which would save a lot of trouble, and then they discussed the number one scholar's role model Tan Hua.

Of course, there are still the top five hundred.

This time the imperial examination will take the top 500 candidates, which refers to non-Jiangdong candidates.

This time Jiangdong candidates directly admitted the top 1,000 candidates.

There are about 100,000 candidates, and only 1,500 are admitted. The competition is also very high.

"My lord, it's not easy to rank in the top ten, so it's better for you to decide." Zhang Zhao gave Zhang Yu a stack of test papers.

They selected about 30 test papers, and these can enter the top 30, with very good grades, but it is not so easy to arrange them in order.

Zhang Yu looked at it for a long time, but couldn't decide.

"Hey, who is this person, answer in seconds." Zhang Yu found another test paper from inside, which was no worse than the few test papers he had seen before.

"Fazheng."

After reading the name, Zhang Yu probably guessed who it is, and this person is definitely good enough.

After some comparison and sorting, Zhang Yu said: "This is the number one scholar."

Zhang Yu patted the test paper a few times, and then gave the test paper to several others.

They have read Fazheng's test papers, and they are indeed very good.

A few people didn't think it was wrong for Zhang Yu to make Fazheng the number one scholar. This Fazheng was indeed qualified to be the number one scholar.

Then there is the role model, Zhang Yu gave Tian Chou selfishly, then Zhuge Jin was Tanhua, and the fourth place was given to Tian Yu, as for Chen Deng, Zhang Yu ranked seventh, and Wang Can, Zhang Yu ranked twenty three.

Wang Can wins in literary talent, his literary talent is very good, but other things are not very good.

Zhang Yu and the others are not looking for those romances, but for good talents in governing the country. Literary talents can add points, but they cannot win by relying on literary talents alone.

More than half of the others are also well-known talents at the moment, or children of some aristocratic families.

There are also civilians. Zhang Yu waited for a night before slowly ranking the rankings.

After checking those files, three-quarters of the people outside Jiangdong are descendants of aristocratic families.

From what Zhang Yu knew, one-third of the people who came to take the exam were the children of common people, but only one-quarter made it to the list. Can't concentrate on studying, many people want to make money while studying.

Zhang Yu knew that some rans would go to work after arriving in Jiangdong and study in their spare time.

There are too few resources for them, Zhang Yu and the others take a lot of exams, those children from aristocratic families can buy a bunch of books to broaden their horizons, but those students from ordinary people do not have this condition.

Zhang Yu has already planned to divide a large area in the royal city into a national library, and his servants can go there as much as they want.

After all, Jiangdong Academy is a school, and it is not good to come and go in and out. Zhang Yu implements a semi-open policy to Jiangdong Academy, most of the time it is not open, and when it is open, outsiders can only take a fixed route.

The establishment of a large library in the royal city will be very attractive to the children of poor families. With this, Zhang Yu can attract readers to come here.

And there will definitely be a large number of talents emerging.

If you want to build a library, it is still super large, not everyone can do it, or not any force can do it casually.

First of all, books are still very expensive. They are relatively cheap in Jiangdong. A good book costs dozens of copper coins, while a book in other places costs hundreds or even more expensive copper coins.

Then there must be a rich variety of books.

But Jiangdong has this condition. In this era, buildings cannot be built very high. Zhang Yu can only choose to build one floor, so the required area is very large.

Fortunately, the royal city is very empty, and a large amount of open space has not yet started to be built. Zhang Yu specially designated a place to build a large library.

Zhang Yu's definition is a collection of more than 300,000 volumes, which is naturally incomparable to the millions or tens of millions of volumes in later generations.

But this era is definitely a big project, and the total types of books in this era may not be that many.

But it doesn't matter, Zhang Yu first set the goal, it may exceed this scale.

Build a place that can attract scholars and train more masters. In Zhang Yu's lifetime, he saw the emergence of a hundred flowers blooming again, instead of only respecting Confucianism.

"Write the comments as soon as possible, publish them, and then publish the list, and at the same time inform us of our decision." Zhang Yu said. The strongest system to dominate the Three Kingdoms
