Revisiting Future Path

Episode 459

Farewell to friends of the same age, Wei Dongsheng personally experienced the suffering and happiness of Wei Fan's middle class in 1653.

The experience of the seventh generation told Wei Dongsheng that, in order to alleviate the economic pressure of the university, he found a part-time job in a nearby printing workshop to help select typesetting. Of course, the income from this part-time job is very small, and it cannot improve the economic difficulties of the unqualified students. However, Wei Dongsheng needed buffer time to collect information from Qingdao Mansion and Weihe College, and simply stayed in the printing workshop temporarily.

The owner of the printing workshop was surnamed Xiao.

There is no male in Xiao Fang's knees, so he has to work hard to train the eldest daughter, Xiao Jingxiu.

Compared with the Zhao Song dynasty, the Wei Xia Empire did not greatly improve the status of women. So far, all the feudal vass did not allow female students to participate in the supervision examination. Wei Dongsheng once wanted to contribute to the power of women's education by building Weihe College and Weihe Technical College, which were always attached to two girls' schools. It is a pity that it is difficult to improve the overall environment with personal efforts. After the death of Wei Dongsheng of the sixth generation, the two girls' schools gradually alienated into a social circle of celebrities, and directly put aspiring women out of the door.

Xiao Jingxiu had the idea of ​​reading, but because she was a woman, she couldn't take the exams and supervise the exams, so she could only increase her knowledge through self-study. The master Xiao Fang pityed his daughter for having nowhere to study, so he hired several supervising students, including Wei Dongsheng, with a high salary, to accompany Xiao Jingxiu and her daughter as part-time jobs. Xiao Jingxiu did not live up to her father Zhang Luo. A few days ago, she found this year's supervisory exam paper for a mock exam. At the age of fifteen, her conservative scores are already very close to the admission scores of Wei He College. If it weren't for a woman, Xiao Jingxiu might have been admitted to Weihe College or other supervising schools.

Unfortunately, Wei Fan in 1653 never gave women opportunities.

Fortunately, the owner of Xiao Fang did not ignore his daughter. He has trained Xiao Jingxiu as a successor to the writing industry and encouraged her to actively participate in the trivial matters of the printing workshop. Xiao Jingxiu's age was a little longer to the rebellious period, and she gradually realized the different powers of men and women, and then particularly hated the restrictions imposed on her by the shackles of female identity. Before long, Xiao Jingxiu abandoned her red makeup, dressed in men's clothes, and changed her name to Xiao Ruonan.

When Wei Dongsheng came to the printing workshop, Xiao Jingxiu, or Xiao Ruonan, walked bravely: "I heard you also failed the list?"

Wei Dongsheng: "Yes."

Xiao Ruonan: "Repeat for another year?"

Wei Dongsheng: "There are considerations."

Xiao Ruonan gave a thumbs up to encourage him and said: "I am ambitious, much better than Cheng Feng."

Cheng Feng has the same identity as Wei Dongsheng, and he was also a part-time student in the printing workshop. Cheng Feng is a bit older, and he is 22 years old this year. After five years of testing, he failed the exam for five years. However, Cheng Feng's abilities other than exam-taking education are quite strong. The owner of Xiao Fang liked him very much, and once wanted to marry Xiao Ruonan to Cheng Feng. However, Xiao Ruonan's heart was taller than the sky, and laughed at resisting Xiao Fangzhu's arrangement: "If I hadn't been born as a woman, I would definitely be listed in the Imperial College, how can he be worthy of me?"

The seventh generation set that Wei Dongsheng and Cheng Feng had a close friendship, so Wei Dongsheng asked casually: "What happened to Cheng Feng?"

Xiao Ruonan pouted and said: "He has lost his ambition for five consecutive years and wants to drop out of school."

Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived, and Cheng Feng just came across. Cheng Feng heard Xiao Ruonan’s ridicule, but he was cheeky and didn’t take it seriously: “It’s not that you lose your ambition, but you know that everyone has their own strengths. Especially with the comparison of Shao Dongjia (Xiao Ruonan), Cheng has to admit that he really doesn’t have one. Reading talent. Alas, I have been repeating for four years, except for the improvement in grades in the first year, and for the next three years, it has worsened year by year. What's the point of repeating it? Rather than failing to die, it’s better to go early. Obsessed with obsession."

Xiao Ruonan was embarrassed to mock Cheng Feng face to face, and simply did not speak.

Cheng Feng's family has no business. After dropping out of school, he must find a new career. Currently, he is staying in the printing workshop because of the importance of Xiao Fang. Cheng Feng was in the printing workshop for one day, and Xiao Ruonan was the young owner he couldn't offend. He would never silly quarrel with Xiao Ruonan. No matter what he thinks, Gentleman Cheng Feng frankly faced Xiao Ruonan's contempt, and kindly asked Wei Dongsheng about the current situation: "I heard that your score has crossed the threshold of Heshu Technical College?"

Wei Dongsheng nodded: "Under Wei He, above Heshu."

Cheng Feng suggested: "If you are not sure of your victory, you should go to an interview at Heshu Institute of Technology. I thought I was eligible for an interview at Heshu Technical College, but I missed it because I only wanted to supervise the school. Now I regret it. The scores are getting lower every year, so I don’t qualify to go to Heshu."

Xiao Ruonan interrupted Cheng Feng's suggestion: "Don't listen to him, why not take the supervisory exam?"

Cheng Feng didn't refute, but he didn't agree with it in his heart.

Xiao Ruonan is the young owner of the printing workshop. The annual profit of the printing workshop is calculated in hundred silver dollars or even thousand silver dollars. Naturally, he will repeat the studies for as many years as he wants. However, Cheng Feng is a child of a poor family. The five-year repetition period has exhausted his family. Both his parents and younger siblings have not been open to eating meat for several years. If the family is rich, who wouldn't want to fight to the maximum age limit of 28? But as his parents get older and his younger siblings grow up, Cheng Feng must shoulder the responsibilities he should shoulder.

Cheng Feng also knew about Wei Dongsheng’s family. Wei Dongsheng died of his father and mother three years ago. He spent a little less on his inheritance. How could he be qualified to repeat one year and another year?

Cheng Feng was too lazy to argue with Xiao Ruonan.

How can Xiao Ruonan, who has no worries, understand the plight of poor students?

Wei Dongsheng has a calm personality, Cheng Feng is used to keeping words in his heart, and the topic immediately ends without problems. Wei Dongsheng had his own ideas. Considering the disadvantaged status of civilians, Guozijian was still the only option to break the shackles of the class. But if he wants to go to Jinan Prefecture to participate in next year's supervisory examination, Wei Dongsheng must raise enough tuition and fees, registration fees, and travel expenses within half a year. In the eyes of Cheng Feng and other students, this money is a heavy burden, and it is also a natural moat for poor families to miss the supervisory examination, but to Xiao Ruonan, it is nothing. The printing workshop can easily get the net profit in one month.

Of course, Wei Dongsheng is also bearish on the funds.

Xiao Ruonan is backed by a printing workshop, and Wei Dongsheng also has the seventh generation experience and business skills.

Wei Dongsheng tricked and stolen the logo of the printing workshop, using the credit of the printing workshop and the owner of Xiao Fang to endorse the credit, purchase goods and resell them for profit. In just over a month, Wei Dongsheng quickly earned more than sixty silver dollars, which was infinitely close to a quarter of the three-year salary of his nominal father.

Unfortunately, the tuition and fees of his alma mater are as high as 72 silver dollars.

However, Wei Dongsheng did not hang himself in a tree. Since he could not easily earn 72 silver dollars in tuition and fees in a short time, he simply transferred to another school with lower tuition and fees. Wei Dongsheng's self-confidence is built on himself, and the quality of his school education does not affect his blockbuster.

A year later, Wei Dong was admitted as a student of the Lu Fan Guozi Supervisor and was shocked to break his glasses again.

Compared with the sixth generation, Wei Dongsheng's admission to the Imperial College was much less sensational. The sixth-generation father left Wei Dongsheng with a business firm. After Wei Dongsheng went to Hangzhou to take the Imperial College Supervisory Examination, he had to return home to handle the business's trivial matters. However, the seventh generation was impoverished and had no worries. Wei Dongsheng simply lived as a guest in Fujing, Jinan. As a result, friends from the Qingdao government were not sure whether Wei Dongsheng was admitted to the Imperial College.

Four years of boring supervising life, nothing to mention.

Time flies until 1656, a new cloud of war is suddenly brewing in the northern part of the empire.

It is said that the Duke of Wei Fan Mao Shang died at the same time, the power minister Jiang Zhongwei supported his 3-year-old daughter Mao Siyu to inherit Wei Fan, and made 4-year-old sons Jiang Weimu and Mao Siyu be engaged.

In 1647, Mao Siwei was in charge of government and tried to win over some loyal ministers to fight Jiang Zhongwei. Mao Sihui immediately found out that she was too naive. The officials she appointed were emptied by Jiang Zhongwei, and the forces outside the palace that she used to develop with her girlfriends were brutally suppressed by Jiang Zhongwei. Mao Siyu quickly realized that she couldn't beat Jiang Zhongwei at all. Her only way to survive was to marry Jiang Weimu, so that she and Jiang Weimu's son would inherit Wei Fan.

However, Mao Sihui refused to give in and refused to marry Jiang Weimu.

Jiang Zhongwei and Jiang Weimu needed Mao Siyu's marriage and blood, so they didn't dare to force Mao Siyu with a knife. They could only communicate with Mao Siyu over and over again.

Mao Sihui rejected the Jiang family's kindness.

In 1655, Mao Siyu suddenly announced that he had converted to Buddhism. Since then, he has escaped into the empty gate and will never get married. However, Mao Siyu was able to protect herself but Wei Fan could not be protected. She compromised with Jiang Zhongwei and Jiang Weimu privately and publicly stated that her fiance Jiang Weizu's grandmother was from the Mao clan and was also considered a branch of the Mao family; and Jiang Weimu was Her most respected man Mao Sihui, instead of making her son inherit Wei Fan, it is better to inherit Wei Fan directly from Jiang Weimu.

When the news broke, the world was in an uproar.

Although Mao Siyu graciously praised Jiang Weimu for this good and that good, but who can't feel the coldness covered by the gorgeous rhetoric?

Who doesn't know Jiang Zhongwei's ambition?

However, Jiang Zhongwei has been in power for a long time, and soon suppressed the opposition within Wei Fan.

However, the surrounding vassals had ideas, and felt that Mao Siyu's remarks in the empty door were a manifestation of Jiang Zhongwei's inability to control the Wei vassal government. Since Wei Fan was born with disasters, he took advantage of his illness to kill his life, and Zhou Fan, Zhao Fan, and Yan Fan, who had land disputes with Wei Fan, quickly formed the Three Kingdoms Anti-Wei Alliance.

It is a pity that Mao Jiuzhong's Wei Wuzu phalanx is still there.

In January 1656, Wei Fan defeated Zhou Fan in a defensive counterattack, forcing Zhou Fan to go alone-and withdrawing from the Three Kingdoms Anti-Wei Alliance.

In September 1656, Wei Fan defeated Yan Fan in a defensive counterattack, and successively captured Haizhou Mansion, Gaizhou Mansion, Fuzhou Mansion, Jinzhou Mansion and other places, taking all the outlets to the sea in the southern part of Yan Fan.

In 1658, Wei Fan turned to Zhao Fan in the south and defeated Zhao Fan in Baoding Mansion.

Three battles and three victories are invincible.

Unexpectedly, the Wei Fan under the regent of Jiang Zhongwei was stronger than the Wei Fan led by Mao Shanghe, the "tiger father without dogs". Three decisive battles defeated the Three Kingdoms Anti-Wei Alliance and almost reproduced the glory of the Mao Jiuzhong era. It is a pity that Yan Fan and Zhao Fan are unwilling to admit defeat and continue to fight Wei Fan in a tug-of-war, lengthening the war.

At the time when Wei Yanzhao's Northern War was in full swing, Wei Dongsheng graduated from Wei Fan Guozijian.

Not long after the sixth emperor Wu Fan Guozijian graduated, Mao Jiuzhong set off a wave of times; while the seventh Lu Fan Guozijian studied, Wei Fan made waves under the regency of Jiang Zhongwei, everything was full of sense of sight. Can Jiang Zhongwei's regent's defense of the country set off a magnificent era?
