章 327: Chapter 187: Governance Strategy_3

That is to say, among all the scholars in Shaoyang Prefecture, only one out of fifty people each year can be an official.

Although this admission rate can't be considered too low, it's definitely not high.

But when expanding the scope to the whole South Sea Prefecture, there is no need to mention the South Sea Prefecture itself, which has been devastated by the Miao People. Probably, there aren't many scholars left.

But considering the size, there should still be about two or three hundred scholars.

The situation in Luyang Prefecture is relatively better, and there should be about three or four hundred scholars.

So putting all five prefectures together, there will be more than a thousand scholars.

Lu Yuan held a selection examination and offered more than four hundred official positions for the candidates from the population of just over a thousand scholars, so the probability of being selected was almost a one-to-one choice.
