Chapter 884: Baikaoba

At first, the great scholar from the agricultural family read it carefully and got some useful things from it. He wrote them down and handed them over to the Dongsheng Pavilion. He agreed that what Fang Yun said was reasonable and could improve the grade of the agricultural subject for reference by the three semi-saint examiners.

But as Fang Yun came up with more and more fantastic ideas, two of the three great scholars in the Agricultural Palace became a little impatient. They gave up looking at the documents recording Fang Yun's words and deeds and handed them all over to the great scholar Xu Shi.

Xu Shi felt helpless because what Fang Yun proposed was too bizarre. The contradiction was that there was some basis for it, but it could not be verified immediately. I was afraid that only a semi-saint could consume the holy power to get the result quickly. The problem was that a semi-saint was so busy and was constantly consuming holy power to do things. It was impossible for him to verify everything Fang Yun said.

Therefore, the value of Fang Yun's things cannot be determined. According to common sense, thinking about Fang Yun's words is mostly a waste of time.

Xu Shi hesitated for two days and decided to continue reading. Firstly, he didn't want to bury Fang Yun, and secondly, he hoped to discover something useful so that his family would always stand at the forefront of the human race and not be overtaken by other farmers.

After discussing with the head of the family, Xu Shi picked out some theories that could be verified within a few years and handed them over to his family members to do.

For the Xu family, verifying an agricultural technology is not only not difficult, but also their responsibility, because the Xu family owns the largest crop and livestock base of the human race. Nearly half of the human race's best grains, vegetables, fruits, and the best breeds of cattle, sheep, pigs, etc. come from the Xu family.

On March 14, the weather was fine. After breakfast, Fang Yun said, "Ao Huang, show me the schedule."

"Yes, sir!" Ao Huang flew over happily.

A few days ago, Fang Yun found that things were complicated, and he had to arrange a reasonable schedule in advance every day. He not only had to pay attention to the priorities, but also had to optimize the route and make effective use of time. So, he asked Ao Huang to make a schedule, which was also to test him.

Ao Huang felt extremely honored and asked Fang Yun to give him an official position. Fang Yun casually appointed him as a secretary.

"Secretary Ao is here!" Ao Huang said, and then he opened his mouth and spit out a notebook with "Fang Yun's Schedule" written on it, and it was signed by Ao Huang.

Fang Yun opened it and turned to the day of March 14th. He took a look and said, "Take a half-minute break and go with me to the farm implement workshop to give the two newly designed drawings of the new animal-powered plow and the new human-powered plow to the farm implement workshop and let them build them with the help of the workshop. Then let the two scholars of the Xu family take them to the fields to verify the two new mechanisms. Hmm, any remarks? In five days, I will design a three-share plow suitable for two Class A oxen. There is only one more Class A ox, but the efficiency is doubled. Ao Huang, you did a good job. I just mentioned it casually, but you can remember it."

"Hehehe..." Ao Huang laughed shyly and wanted to scratch his head with his claws. Unfortunately, his claws were too short to reach, so Nunu jumped up and used his little claws to scratch him.

Ao Huang can fight and call the wind and rain. But this is his first time to take on this kind of job, so he is very serious. After being praised by Fang Yun, he is also very happy. His dragon tail keeps shaking. He can't stop at all.

Fang Yun returned the schedule to Ao Huang, took a short break, and then walked out. As soon as he walked out of the inner house and before he walked out of the back hall, he saw a soldier walking quickly under the leadership of a handsome horse.

The soldier looked at Fang Yun and said hurriedly, "Sir, something happened outside."

"What's the matter?" Fang Yun remained calm as usual.

The soldier hurriedly said, "Since this morning, people have been coming to the county government office to kowtow and kneel. Some are adults who come alone, and some bring their families with them, saying that they want the county exam to go well. They kowtow all they want, and they also throw longevity locks, purses, colorful threads and other messy things at the door, completely treating the county government office as a place to pray. We didn't dare to do anything, so we just watched. Later, we found that more and more people came, and we couldn't stop them, so we hurried in to ask for your instructions."

Fang Yun was stunned at first, but soon understood and smiled, "Today is March 14th, and tomorrow is March 15th, which is the county exam. However, I remember that there are some temples and ancestral halls dedicated to the ancestors in Ning'an County. Why don't they go there to worship?"

The soldier said helplessly, "They have many opinions. Some say that instead of worshipping the statues of the ancient saints, it is better to worship you, a living virtual saint! Others say that you are nicknamed the No. 1 literary tyrant and the No. 1 test-taker of the human race, and you have always passed the imperial examinations. This is something that even the ancient saints could not do. Since it is for the imperial examinations, it is better to worship you than to worship them! Some even say that there is a word "luck" in your name, and you can tell that you are a person with great luck. Some also say that you can subdue real dragons as your followers, which means you have the luck of the dragon clan, which is extraordinary! There are other opinions, but I will not say them. Anyway, with so many added together, how can they not worship?" Wucuo Novel Network does not skip words.

Fang Yun shook his head and said, "Since there are so many people outside, I'd better go through the back door."

"Sir, you can't leave! If you don't show up, there will definitely be others coming. Ning'an is a big county, and every year there are at least 38,000 people taking the exams for the Tongsheng examination. Their relatives and family members, as well as those who join in the fun, the things they throw will definitely block the entrance to the government office! If you don't show up, who would dare to touch those things! Really, those things are now above the soles of the feet. If you wait a little longer, they will reach the knees. In an hour, they will be waist-deep."

Fang Yun smiled and said, "You are from Beijing, right? You are really good at talking, how could it be so exaggerated."

"If you don't believe me, go and see for yourself. How dare I lie to you with my eyes open?" said the soldier aggrievedly.

"Then I'll go and take a look." Fang Yun walked out with a smile.

Ao Huang followed behind curiously and said, "Back then, you conquered the entire state of Qing with your literary talent and avenged the state of Jing. I heard that people from all over Yuhai City came to give you gifts and food, so much so that you had to cook the food and hold a city feast. It's a pity that I didn't see it at the time, but I must see it this time."

"Oh oh!" Nunu ran over quickly and saw Little Meteor following behind her. Mist Butterfly was lying obediently on her forehead acting as a bow. At the same time, her claws were grabbing Yan Gui's neck.

When she got close, she jumped hard, threw the inkstone turtle onto Ao Huang, jumped into Fang Yun's arms, and looked at Fang Yun with a smile and acted coquettishly.

Fang Yun touched the little fox's head and walked towards the main gate.

After passing through the main hall, bypassing the stone tablet, and approaching the main gate, Fang Yun saw many people standing ten feet away from the main gate, some throwing small objects, including sachets, purses, and even jade pendants and silver ingots. It was indeed as the soldier had said, a thick layer of water had been laid, covering the ankles for a long time.

After throwing the balls, these people immediately knelt down and kowtowed. Some adults did not kneel down, but asked the children to kneel down.

"Please, Lord Xusheng, bless my son to pass the county exam!"

"Brother Fang Yun..."

The boy's voice was interrupted by his mother: "You spendthrift! What's your generation? What's Xu Sheng's generation? Call me grandpa!"

Then the boy, who was one year older than Fang Yun, kowtowed towards the main door with a weeping face: "I ask Grandpa Fang to bless me. May I pass the imperial examination and marry the fourth daughter of the Wang family."

There were low laughters all around, and the boy's mother rolled her eyes. Just as she was about to drag her son away, she suddenly pointed at Fang Yun and shouted, "Isn't that Fang Xusheng?" No word skipping on the Wucuo Novel Network. (To be continued...)
