The floods in the empire are actually not serious, such as Tongzhou and Longzhou, where there are basically no major floods, and basically there will be no disasters.

The central area is a rare fertile soil in the world, with smooth wind and rain, no natural disasters and no military disasters.

When the forest grows, any bird can be encountered, and it is necessary to solve problems such as earthquakes, tsunamis, wind disasters, snow disasters, and plagues in various states.

Tongzhou Longzhou has a vast territory, there is no need to cultivate fertile land near the main river, even in the rainy season, there is no need to worry too much, the river water doubles is fine, there are enough low-lying places to store water, unlike Heishui County, where you build a city in dangerous places for the sake of land.

Compared to the rest of the world, the living conditions in the central area are really good, and it is better to live here as a dog than as a human outside.

But a water officer is indeed a necessary quality for a big official, although you don't need to know too much, but it is generally a person who knows how to control water to be responsible for this.

Wherever the water affairs officer is unfavorable, the imperial court will let people go down to supervise, and at this time, the rest of the senior officials will be given the official position of commander-in-chief and supervision, and then removed after the matter is completed.

Things like water control, suppression, banditry, disaster relief, and case investigation are all things that are a time to brush up on political achievements, but the development of county towns is not.

The meaning of the imperial court is very simple, that is, it wants to be safe and stable, and the emperor does not require the people below to behave too well, but only hopes that these people will not make trouble for him and find things.

Under such a premise, things such as water control and bandit suppression that need to go around to fight fires are necessary skills for middle- and upper-level officials.

Many people will master a skill, whether it is water control, banditry, investigation and the like, they are very attentive.

Good students who go out of government schools basically have some basic knowledge of water control, and even officials from ordinary universities outside also know something about this aspect.

It's just that knowing is knowing, and how to make a reputation is the biggest problem.

Wang Lanling and Lishui Wanyue walked to the concert hall where the dance party was held, and listened to Lishui Wanyue talking to himself about how important it was to control the water, but they didn't think so.

In another world, I don't know how many times there have been big floods from ancient times to the present, and there are more than a dozen celebrities who control the water, and the rest of the people are not capable of doing business?

No.

It's propaganda that I don't understand!

Wang Lanling thinks that it is useless for Lishui Wanyue to learn to control water, so many places across the country, so many local officials, and people solve the problems on their own turf, is it considered a political achievement?

The flood problem in Heishui County comes once in a few years, and the water officials in front of them are all inert?

Even if they are all dog officials in Heishui County, why can't they have a water control minister in Lingtong County and Yunshui County at the expense of Heishui County?

There are so many talents in Yunzhou, and even in the small Heishui County, there are talents who understand meteorology and water conservancy, but in the end, those who have a reputation for water control are confused about this matter.

Wang Lanling has a new understanding on the official road.

For people with a reputation, hard work is pay, and there is a reward for paying.

For those who are not noticed, hard work is their duty and is within their duty.

Thinking of this, Wang Lanling showed a thoughtful look.

Is this Lishui Wanyue really stupid, or is it fake stupid?

If it's really stupid, it's just to come and ask for advice about water control.

If you are stupid, it is propaganda that he has asked for experience from himself, a famous person in water control, and that after the time comes, others will not be able to treat him and the rest of his contemporaries as a treat.

There are many people who succeed in water control every year, but this is what is within the exam questions, what is the success of it?

Duty, brother.

Walking from the dormitory street to the concert hall, Wang Lanling listened to Lishui Wanyona's slightly arrogant speech, and was sure that this person was really stupid.

Alas, fools have foolish blessings.

Lord Wang didn't realize that he had just comprehended it, and at this time, seeing that others didn't understand this truth, he felt that others were stupid.

When Wang Lanling was bored, Lishui Wanyue, who was originally talking about his own great family, suddenly raised his voice a few degrees.

"Look! That's the carriage of Lord Zhidai! ”

Wang Lanling didn't want to get involved with things like the county lord at all.

Only the Jiang family is qualified to be the county lord, and the Jiang family members everywhere do not have to abide by the rules that the rest of the people must abide by, whether it is in the period of being an official or in other places.

The county lord is the daughter of the prince whose fief is a county, and the next generation is the county lord, and there are many daughters who will give the daughter the position of the county lord.

The territory of the empire is vast, and most of the people in the family, whether male or female, are actually sealed, that is, they really have a territory.

They have a fortune, a fief, and special rights as Jiang's family.

The relationship between these county lords and local officials is complicated, and everyone is reluctant to be dogs, but the Jiang family's power is too great, and county lords like this can affect the promotion and evaluation of officials.

Heishui County is a poor place, and the people are simple...... The old men certainly don't want to live here.

For example, the county lords and county lords on the Shanzhou side arrange personal management of the fiefdom, and they often live and enjoy themselves in Yunzhou Mansion.

Muzhou is the same, the Jiang family is the target of hatred, and there is no shortage of people to venture into the Jiang family's villa and mansion every year, so the nobles there also gather in Yunzhou and the local state capital.

The Jiang family across the country basically yearns for the land in the central area, and lacks interest in expanding their territory or governing their own fiefdoms.

Unless it is the Jiang family who holds the military power, just a nominal county lord and county lord can't play those local dog officials.

Even if it is Master Jiang, he may not be able to suppress the local dog officials.

For example, a dog official like Xiao Wang, it doesn't matter if the Jiang family takes some money, but if these old lords and princesses like to take care of things too much, then the contradictions between the two sides are irreconcilable.

There is a position relationship between the two sides, and Wang Lanling avoids these so-called county lords.

But this kind of thing can't be avoided, there are a lot of Jiang family members in Yunzhou, and the upper class will breed from generation to generation, and it won't take a few years to set their sights on Heishui County, which is something that can't be avoided.

The prince's daughter is the county lord, the county king and the county lord's daughter is the county lord, the granddaughter is the county lord, the great-granddaughter is the county lord, and the great-great-granddaughter is the township king.

Most of the current Jiang family members are from the first emperor's line, the first emperor's descendants are numerous, the seventy-year-old emperor belongs to the second generation, Jiang Xinzhi of Yunzhou is the third generation, and the eighth generation of the Jiang family is about to appear.

The more than 1,000 people in Wangjiabao were established by Old Man Wang over the past few decades, not to mention the Jiang family, which is more resourceful.

The number of these people multiplies every few years.

The empire is vast enough to accommodate these people, and there will be no problem for at least a hundred years.

The one who really can't accommodate these people is a dog official like Xiao Wang!

Lishui Wanyo likes to lick the Jiang family, that is his own position, he is not a real power figure, just a son in the county.

These people will think that it is a good thing to have a relationship with the county lord, but Wang Lanling does not think so.

People and dogs are different after all, Wang Lanling can take away the dog basin when his dog eats, but he needs to be careful when he uses people's rice bowls.

Similarly, if the Jiang family dares to touch Lord Xiao Wang's rice bowl, then Lord Xiao Wang is absolutely angry and will scold Cao Shemade!

This is especially true of the people under his command, once they lose their trust and want to touch other people's rice bowls, they must be prepared to be bitten.

The Jiang family in this world is different from the imperial relatives of other dynasties, and their power is too great.

This kind of privilege and hatred generally takes several generations to precipitate, and after gradually being adapted, the oppression and privilege will not be so great at that time.

But even in this case, once something goes wrong with the country, these people are also the objects of liquidation, and they need to live incognito and change their surnames.

However, it is not the bottom people who liquidate them, but the new magnates.

Whether he is caught as a plaything in the home of a new magnate, or sent to the sect as a prostitute, or continues to be a high-class person by virtue of his beauty, it has nothing to do with inferior people.

Inferior people cannot determine the fate of these people, now or in the future.

Being an official is a complicated matter, much more difficult than being a dog, and most of them are willing to be officials, not dogs.

It's just that no matter what, I have to admit that some people are indeed willing to be dogs.

Wang Lanling's main opponent of these dog officials is not the Jiang family, but the dog officials under the Jiang family.

The three of them walked a few dozen meters ahead.

"It's Miss Longxiang!" Lishui Wanyue shouted happily again.

Wang Lanling didn't look ahead, he just felt that Lishui Wanyue's fuss and shouting would make him look like a small person.

Listening to this person's boast just now, as well as the identity of the official student, as well as the matter of the internal water officer, Wang Lanling felt that this person must be a powerful person in the local area.

But this person made a fuss twice in a row because of a woman, which made Wang Lanling feel that this person was ...... It's not a manufacturable material.

Although this is a bias, there is no substantial evidence for the future of Lishui Wanyo.

But many things often don't need to be evidenced, as long as you feel it.

Lishui Wanyue said excitedly: "Miss Longxiang is the grandson of the lord of Huayin, gentle and kind, bright and beautiful, but it's a pity that she has no chance with mortals like me...... Alas......"

Wang Lanling said curiously: "Then who is she going to marry?" ”

The Jiang family cannot marry the Jiang family, this is a matter stipulated by the first emperor.

After several generations, the surname Jiang can't be married to each other.

In addition to the Jiang family, the second tier of the empire is the first batch of meritorious magnates.

After the old emperor came to power, the status of the meritorious and powerful declined rapidly, and the Jiang family's marriage objects were more concentrated in other imperial relatives rather than the civil descendants of the empire.

Lishui Wanyo looked around, and then whispered: "Of course I entered the palace!" ”

Women are definitely not eunuchs when they enter the palace, Wang Lanling thought about it, and suddenly said, "The saint didn't have a prince, right?" ”

Lishui Wanyue said with a smile: "Can this still be fake? Who in the generation of the great-grandchildren of the Holy One has a promising future, everyone can see it! ”

Wang Lanling doesn't care, it's their business how these people are willing to toss, just don't make trouble for yourself.

Although this empire is the empire of the Jiang family, Xiao Wang, who has felt that he can be the master of the house since he was a child, has brought over the bad atmosphere of another world, and he always feels that he is also a part of this empire.

The entrance to the ball was bustling with traffic, and there were many luxuriously decorated cars, bicycles, horse-drawn carriages, and steam cars.

Horse-drawn carriages must be a privilege, and horseback riding is forbidden in schools, but some people's big horses can't be stopped, right? I always have to be considerate of some of these half-Jiang family members.

The Jiang family who understands them, it is these dog officials who need to abide by the rules.

As for the lower-class men, they don't deserve to come, but there are many lower-class women here as escorts.

Wang Lanling looked at the crowd and vehicles at the door, and said with emotion: "Looking at the warm lights and the bustling world in front of me, I feel that we are so humble. ”

Lishui Wanyue and Lishui Yingzhuo didn't feel that way, but they were represented by Wang Lanling at this time.

Lishui Wanyue said with a smile: "If you have to suffer hard, you will be a master, a petty official, you don't know how good it is!" ”
