Rising: Ten Thousand Years Chapter 12: :Registration
The flowers are blooming like a piece of brocade, and the waves are magnificent.
I used to think that Hangcheng County was the bustling city I had seen, but it was only when I came to Huangpu County that I realized what it meant to be a foot in the sky and a foot on the ground.
The cries of vendors are endless, the cavalry is constantly moving, and the patrolling guards are awe-inspiring.
There are many facades on both sides of the street, some technological products that have never been heard in Hangcheng County, and the products under the name of "relics of ancient times" are dazzling.
There are so many snack sellers and clothes sellers.
"Friend, do you want to stay in the hotel?"
"Little brother, can you find a little girl for a massage?"
"Brother, I see you have a strange face, let me tell you about your future achievements..."
“…”
There are always peddlers and scammers coming to make trouble. But Li Zhen ignored it.
Although he walked out of Hangcheng County for the first time in his life, he had heard too much ancient prosperity from Zhang Zhi's mouth, and this scene could still stand.
The first thing to do is to report to the government in Huangpu County. All candidates are required to report.
It's not about registering for the college entrance examination.
The quota for the college entrance examination has been registered in advance, and the arrangements have already been made. What needs to be reported is that you come to the government to show that you have arrived in Huangpu safely and that you have arrived. Then get the candidate number, and wait for the news after receiving the test number. On the day of the test, we will arrange where to take the test and how to take the test.
"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze. Which county."
"Yong County."
"I've reported it to Yong County, and I've reported it to you."
"No, we have four high schools in Yong County, and we belong to Yong County New Hope Private High School."
"Yong County private high school? How can there be this? Have you reported it?"
"Yes, oops, you guys have made mistakes. Our New Hope has fifty-six students for reference this year, so look for it."
"I found it, I found it. Fifty-six, right? You go to the waiting area and sit, and the staff will make up the test numbers for you later and call you. You register..."
“…”
The government office in Huangpu County has a special window for applicants, and there is a long queue in front of the window, and there is an endless stream of people.
Other counties are more prosperous than Hangcheng County, and there is only one high school in Hangcheng County.
There are several other counties, and even some townships and counties under the jurisdiction of some counties have private high schools.
Li Zhen stood at the back of the line like a goose, marveling in his heart, how many candidates are there in Southeast State this year? It's just that there are already so many people sent by each school to get the number. Counting those students, how many people are there...
After waiting for half an hour, it was Li Zhen's turn. The staff inside were sweating profusely, and their throats were smoking when they spoke. I took a look at Li Zhen, and I wasn't surprised that it was a young man who came to claim the number:
"Which school?"
"I am from Hangcheng County Public High School."
"Hangcheng County..."
The staff rummaged through the messy papers on a table. After a while, they suddenly realized: "Oh, yes. There are two people who applied for the exam, one named Liu Quan and the other named Li Zhen?"
"Yes, I am Li Zhen."
"Are there only two of you in Hangcheng County?"
The staff frowned.
"Yes, two people."
"You register, and then sit there and wait, the staff will call you the test number."
“…”
Li Zhen nodded, and sat in the hall over there. Before his buttocks warmed up, someone yelled: "From Hangcheng County, come and get your number."
Li Zhen hurried forward, but he heard the people behind him explode:
"Hey, did you make a mistake?"
"I've been waiting here for more than three hours, and you didn't call me. The guy from Hangcheng County just came here and it's his turn?"
"What are you doing? Do you treat them differently? There is still a back door?"
"No, no, no, I've been waiting here for four or five hours. This kid just waited for dozens of seconds and you're done. Are you kidding me?"
“…”
The staff members were also sweating profusely, with their hands on their hips, and shouted at those noisy people:
"There are only two examinees in Hangcheng County, and you can make a number with two strokes. You have hundreds of people at every turn, so what's the matter with waiting?"
“…”
As soon as this remark came out, the audience was amazed.
Everyone looked at Li Zhen anxiously, and then sat back awkwardly.
With a 'bang', there were constant whispers in the waiting area, and everyone pointed at Li Zhen and kept snickering.
"There are only two people in Hangcheng County?"
"Haha, there are not as many people applying for the exam as the village-run high schools in our county."
"Two people apply for the exam, is this also called a county? Simply abolish Hangcheng County, divide it into the jurisdiction of our Shanyin County, and become an independent county. It's called Hangcheng County."
"Two people?"
“…”
Li Zhen took the two document bags and left quickly. Hearing the comments and ridicule of those people, he felt panicked. It's more suffering, now that both of them are gone, it's just me.
With the two files in hand, Li Zhen found a random hotel to stay in, closed the door and couldn't wait to open the file bag.
In the file bag is a stack of printed documents, about five sheets of paper are written on the precautions for the exam, what to bring, what not to bring, and the consequences of cheating. A line marked in red letters reads ‘Death penalty for taking the exam~IndoMTL.com~ There is only one piece of paper with the candidate’s information written on it.
Li Zhen, 16, male, a public high school in Hangcheng County, 175 cm tall and 65 kg in weight.
After the information bar, there are ten fingerprints and palm prints printed in a blank space. There is a line of small characters written on the side, "The fingerprints collected before applying for the exam are only for reference when candidates enter the venue."
These fingerprints are collected in a unified way in the third year of high school. Every student has some of them collected, and it is not necessary to apply for the exam.
Looking at these fingerprints, Li Zhen couldn't see anything interesting, and he didn't know the meaning of these ten fingerprints and the palm prints of the left and right hands.
Opening Liu Quan's file, the information in it was similar to his own. After reading it for a while, Li Zhen tried his best to calm down. Try not to let that emotion affect your normal performance in the acquired exam.
"Do I want to report to the official?"
Standing on the window sill, Li Zhen looked at the gate of the Huangpu County government across the street, hesitating.
He was not sure about this matter at all. Mr. Wang said that Yanziji was an official bandit. If he reported to the official in Huangpu County, would there be a scene where the official and the official would protect each other?
After thinking about it for a while, Li Zhen felt that he could not report to the official.
I am just a young examinee, and I speak lightly. If you report to the official, whether the government accepts it or not is one thing, and it will definitely affect your exam. Even, if it is really an official bandit, they will even come to chase and kill you.
Yanziji has no survivors. Only he ran out. Li Zhen felt that there was a great possibility, and they would not let him go. At this time, only by dormant, and only by returning to Hangcheng County can the matter be made public. At least, I am from Hangcheng County, and the folks in Hangcheng County will protect me. At least, the princess of Hangcheng County will not harm his people.
