In order to solve the problem of lack of teachers, Meng Jiao specially consulted the former Xiangguo Li Mi, and Li Mi gave him a trick, don't always look for it in Chang'an, broaden your horizons, and look at the whole world.

Niu Jian was busy for more than half a month, and finally got a little eyebrows, so he handed over the list to Meng Jiao.

Meng Jiao hurriedly took the list and looked at it carefully, there were more than 30 people on the list, some of whom he had already hired, such as Zhao Zhi, the director of the Water Administration, who was preparing to concurrently serve as a professor of water conservancy, and Yang Xun, the director of the Department of Agriculture, who would also serve as a professor of agronomy.

In the list, there are many of them in Chengdu, Meng Jiao hooked it with a pen, Li Weijin, the order of the Southern Tang Shaofu Prison, the order of the Weaving and Dyeing Department, the order of the weapons of the Ordnance Prison, the order of the Shanglin Department of Sinong Temple, and the order of the Pastoral Department of the Taifu Temple, Han Weihao, these are all officials who have been promoted from practice and are proficient in technology.

There are also some talented people in Jiangnan below, the first is Lu Yu and Seng Jiaoran in agronomy.

Meng Jiao hurriedly read the entire list, most of which needed to be dug up, and he hurriedly said, "I'll go to Pan Changshi and discuss with him what to do?" ”

........

In the long history room, Pan Liao looked at the list several times, pondered for a moment and asked, "How were these officials selected?" ”

"Qi Yu long history, the establishment of a temporary official office, by the Niu Cheng with a dozen officials responsible for the selection, they from the Ministry of officials to retain a variety of evaluation documents repeatedly compared and selected, this group of officials are first promoted from the bottom, engaged in the industry for at least 15 years, they have actual performance as the support, Niu Cheng they took half a month to complete this list."

"I see!"

Pan Liao nodded, expressing his approval of Meng Jiao's selection principle, and he instructed his subordinates, "Please ask Du Sima and the recommendation agency to come over." ”

Not long after, Sima Duyou and the recommendation agency ordered Cheng Ming to come to Pan Liao's official office quickly.

Du You served as the Zuo Sima of the Jin Palace, and at the same time served as the secretary of the ministry, which is equivalent to the deputy prime minister concurrently serving as the servant of the ministry, and he holds the real power of the ministry, which is also Guo Song's recognition of his ability.

The Recommendation Department is a department under the Ministry of Officials, which is divided into four departments: Literature Selection, Medals, Examinations, and Recommendations, of which the Recommendation Department is responsible for selecting and recommending civilian officials, but in fact they also have another hidden responsibility, that is, to tap outstanding talents from other forces.

"Pan Changshi has something to do with me, are you planning to invite me to drink at noon?" Du You walked in with a smile and asked.

"Good! Sima Ruo gives face, I will treat you at noon! ”

The two laughed, Pan Liao invited the two to sit down, and handed the list to Du You, "This is a list of teachers sorted out by the order of the Meng Agency, His Royal Highness the King of Jin has a request, Taixue should be changed to cultivate professional talents, but the teachers are seriously insufficient, so the State Administration has found a more suitable candidate from officials from all over the country, and Du Sima should know about it!" ”

Du You nodded and smiled: "How could I not know? I also specially arranged personnel to help the National Administration find old files. ”

"Since Du Sima knows, then I will ask the officials to recruit people."

Du You took the list and looked at it, and said with a smile: "Lu Yu is actually on the list, is Taixue going to start a tea class?" ”

Meng Jiao bowed and said: "Back to Sima, teaching tea making is actually the meaning of His Royal Highness the King of Jin, His Royal Highness the King of Jin believes that the promotion of the tea industry in the future will prosper business and bring great benefits to the government, no less than wine, so we must reserve talents in advance." ”

Du You nodded and said: "His Royal Highness King Jin is far-sighted, and he can always see ten or even decades later, which is the most admirable place." ”

He handed the list to Cheng Ming, "This matter is very urgent, Taixue will start classes in September, and there are more than two months left, so you should hurry up." ”

"Humble duty understands!"

Cheng Ming asked again: "How to arrange their treatment and rank?" ”

He seemed to be asking Du You, but he was actually asking Pan Liao, after all, Pan Liao was a long history, and the officials above the seventh rank and below the fifth rank were all appointed by the long history and handed over to the King of Jin for approval.

Du You looked at Pan Liao, "What about Pan Changshi's opinion?" ”

Pan Liao pondered for a moment and said: "According to their current rank, if the Central Signing Order and the Signing Order of the Southern Tang Dynasty are the Eighth Rank or the Eighth Rank Official, then we will all appoint the Seventh Rank Taixue Teaching Assistant, arrange the corresponding official residence, give three hundred guan settlement allowance, and maybe have another appointment in the future." ”

Du You applauded and smiled: "Changshi and I want to go together, it seems that Changshi can't get rid of this wine at noon." ”

Pan Liao smiled, "Okay! I'll come to you later, and we'll go to Taibai House for a drink today. ”

.........

The Taibai building is full of people, upstairs and downstairs are full of guests, and several elegant rooms on the third floor are expensive rooms, which must have a certain identity to use.

In the Lamei Hall on the third floor, Du You and Pan Liao sat opposite each other, and a beautiful lady was responsible for pouring wine for them. ”

"That's because you're not good at drinking, and people who are good at drinking will think that wine is too weak, and you have to drink soju to enjoy it."

"Perhaps!"

Pan Liao sighed and said: "Today's hiring of teachers has given me a lot of inspiration, I think we are a little too narrow-minded, we don't pay much attention to the outstanding officials outside, we must be our own people or cultivate ourselves." ”

Du You turned around and smiled at the wine lady: "You step back first!" We will come on our own and will call you when we need it. ”

The wine lady was very discerning, and knew that the guests were going to talk about business, so she got up and bowed and retreated.

After the wine lady left, Du You said: "I think the main reason is that the current official system is not very sound, a bit like the official system of the East Palace, the ministries and departments are mixed together, the advantage of this is that there are few people, compact, and high execution, but because the shelf is too small, the accommodation of officials is limited, of course, we must first consider the old ministers, consider the Jinshi they have cultivated, and there is no place for the foreign minister." ”

Pan Liao sighed and said, "But His Royal Highness the King of Jin is very satisfied with the current system, and it is difficult to persuade him. ”

Du You shook his head, "I know that the current system is a plan planned by Yan Xiangguo, in Hexi Jiedu Mansion, such a system is indeed very suitable, and like the establishment of the White Tiger Hall, the functions and powers of the servants, the ministers, and the judges are integrated, clarifying the rights and responsibilities, and judging the priorities, it is simply a stroke of genius, which is admirable."

But now that we have a vast territory, a large population, and hundreds of states, the existing system is indeed a bit cramped, too hasty and not enough calm, too much kneaded, and lacking a kind of outward expansion. ”

"Du Sima should be clear, there are some things we can't do, after all, His Royal Highness the King of Jin recognizes the imperial court, and now we have reached the limit, and if we take another half step forward, it is arrogant, His Royal Highness the King of Jin said, this is the essence of Yan Xiangguo's design of this system, there is the reality of the imperial court but there is no name of the imperial court."

Du You drank the wine in the cup and said, "Maybe you are right, I thought about it simply. ”

Pan Liao poured him a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Some of your suggestions are not bad, when Your Highness comes back, we will all sit down and discuss together, and think of a good way to use the world's outstanding officials for us." ”

Du You groaned and said, "Wei Lian came to me yesterday. ”

Pan Liao paused for a moment in the wine glass he held in the air, and sighed softly, "It's not easy for him to do!" ”

"Does Your Highness have anything to say?"

Pan Liao smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness wants to use Wei Yingwu." ”

Wei Yingwu is the history of Suzhou Thorn, because he wrote poems to ridicule the eunuch party in power, was deposed by Song Chaofeng, just returned to Chang'an not long ago, Guo Song admired him very much, and was ready to enable him again, just when Wei Lian, the secretary of the Southern Tang Dynasty Criminal Department, also returned, Guo Song was a little hesitant, and the use of two Wei important ministers at once would cause dissatisfaction among other families, and Guo Song had to be cautious.

"I'll go talk to him! How does Your Highness want to use Wei Yingwu? ”

"His Royal Highness wants to use him as Jing Zhaoyin, and Du Wenxing will serve as the Xuanfu envoy of the Suzheng Taiguan."

The Suzheng Observatory is not completely a single function like the Imperial Historical Observatory, it is actually a combination of the Supervision Office of the Ministry of Officials, the Supervision Office of the Ministry of War, and the Supervision Office of the Criminal Department.

The main responsibilities are to supervise officials, supervise the army, and review important criminal law cases, and have great power over both the military, the government and the people.

At first, inspection offices were set up in various localities, but last year, the inspection offices of the Suzheng Observatory and the Shangshu Xingtai were merged into one and changed to the Suzheng Observatory, and the inspection envoys were also upgraded to Xuanfu Envoys.

This is mainly because Guo Song revoked the Jiedu Mansion in various places, and there was no official office at the level of Dao, and below the Jin Wangfu was the state, but the Dao level existed objectively, such as Hexi Road, Longyou Road, Shuofang Road, Guannei Road, Guanzhong Road, Hedong Road, etc.

Then it is more reasonable for the Suzheng Platform to set up a platform at the level of the Dao to exercise the power of supervision, the power of supervising the military, and the power of reviewing criminal cases.

This is actually the official system of the Tang Dynasty, compared with the official system of the Song Dynasty, there is still a lack of an important transfer department, and the power of the Tang Dynasty is given to the salt and iron supervisor, the Jin Dynasty is mainly because the transportation is not very extensive, mainly concentrated in the Yellow River and Fenshui, all the transfer rights are under the jurisdiction of the Household Department of Transport, and will be slowly transferred to the Salt and Iron Department in the future.

"Alright! I'll talk to Wei Jian and let him calm down! ”

Pan Liao said lightly: "If his requirements are not so high, I believe that His Highness will give him an arrangement, but if his requirements are too high, I believe that His Highness will also give him an arrangement." ”
