Chapter 350: New Initiatives (Part 12)
With such a huge number of talents, if you want to recruit them, you can't arrange many people in Youzhou alone.
And Zhang Ming pondered for a while and said, "It seems that we have to reform. ”
Reform, reform what?
The two were confused.
Zhang Ming said: "Increase a large number of official positions. ”
Increasing the number of official positions, both of them feel that it is inappropriate, and too many officials are not a good thing.
Zhang Ming said: "Add some functional departments directly to the county level. For example, the Criminal Department, which is responsible for criminal punishment and arrest, the Ministry of Agriculture, which is responsible for reclaiming farmland and helping farmers, and the Ministry of Industry, which is responsible for various projects, also needs the Qintianjian, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Communications, the Ministry of Officials, and so on. ”
"That is to say, in the future, the county guard and the county order will not be fully responsible, and one person will not be able to do so many things, so in the future, the various functional departments will be responsible for doing specific things, and the county guard and the county order will grasp the overall situation, manage and coordinate these specific departments, and so on."
"However, some departments are directly under the state pastoral government, such as the criminal department, and local officials can ask the criminal department to coordinate, but more often they are under the management of the direct department."
Zhang Ming uttered a concept that shocked the two of them.
Zhang Ming This is not the three-province and six-ministry system of later generations, it is still a little too backward.
Although there are six parts, when it comes to the place, it is still up to one person.
Zhang Ming, on the other hand, imitated later generations and figured out various functional departments, not how many departments there were, and what departments were needed in the future.
After the two of them digested it, Zhang Ming said: "First of all, first determine the Criminal Department, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Communications and the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of War is now mainly responsible for the recruitment and training of the militia, and the care of the injured soldiers..."
Zhang Ming first identified seven departments, in fact, he also needed the Ministry of Commerce and so on, but Zhang Ming knew that things had to come step by step, not too fast.
Tian Feng and Xi Zhicai were stunned, can it still be like this?
Tian Feng immediately realized that he was going to be decentralized, he was directly in charge of all government affairs before, and he would not be allowed to manage everything in the future.
Tian Feng is nothing, he thinks it's so good, there are special people to share various tasks for him.
Zhang Ming gave them a concept, and then they needed to slowly improve the detailed rules.
Zhang Ming said again: "It's time to open the library, and five hundred people are allowed to enter a day, and they can go to the queue." ”
The library, now there are only more than 100,000 books in it, in addition, Zhang Ming has successively sorted out the books from the Luoyang Palace, and then they will also be placed in the library.
This is probably the place with the most books in the world, and it may also be the most complete place.
However, not all books are available, and there are still many unique books in this world.
Open the library, Zhang Ming believes that it can retain a lot of talents, and the most important thing is to be able to spread the news.
In the future, they will be able to read the books as they please.
Even if it's a family, there aren't many books at home.
To make a book, you don't just have to cut the bamboo and engrave the words, so that the bamboo slip will rot and become moldy or bored in a few days.
Bamboo slips need to be roasted with a special process, and after special processing, anti-corrosion and anti-insects, so many families do not have many books at home.
And Zhang Ming has books here, some who want to read, don't stay?
"Lord, this book is currently our greatest treasure, do you really want to show it all and open it to the whole world?" Tian Feng said.
"Of course, people who come, after a long time, will always be attracted to us and choose to join us."
Tian Feng didn't say anything more, he just confirmed it.
After Zhang Ming finished explaining, he asked Tian Feng and Xi Zhi to execute.
At present, the Ministry of War is only responsible for the affairs of retired soldiers and militia, and as for the active army, Zhang Ming does not plan to let others take care of it, and is still in charge of it himself.
To control the army is to control everything.
The next day, Tian Feng ordered that people could freely enter and leave the library to visit and browse.
In addition, Tian Feng and Xi Zhicai are formulating detailed rules, formulating the detailed rules of several departments made by Zhang Ming.
In this way, it is necessary to select a large number of officials this time.
Each county and county should have people.
These, let them out, you know that you need to add a lot of officials.
In addition, Zhang Ming also demanded that all counties and counties must organize their own files and count all the population.
These have to add a lot of people.
Two days later, many of the princes had already attracted a lot of students.
Some people who are not strong, or some people who have the ability to organize students to go back, have already left a batch.
However, there are also many people who want to stay here for a little longer.
After two days of fermentation, everyone was full of curiosity about the mysterious library.
How many books are there in that tall building?
More and more people are going in.
Many people have refreshed their minds after entering.
They set up a school in their own home, and there are dozens of books.
And Zhang Ming here, inside the six-story building, the first floor is empty, and the rest are bookshelves, and now there are only one floor with books, but there are already more than 100,000 volumes.
There are a lot of books that you can't usually see.
Many people were moved.
Some people are even surprised to find that Sun Tzu's Art of War, Wu Zi's Art of War, and what an important military book they are.
In addition, there are many royal classics here, and Zhang Ming has already asked people to sort out some of them.
These books are undoubtedly attractive, and many people are immediately attracted to them.
There are also those who have already planned where to go and now plan to stay for a long time.
Some who didn't get into the exam were also co-opted by some princes.
But they don't plan to leave now, they can only be petty officials when they go, they stay and continue to study, if they are admitted in the next year, they will be on the list, and it will be good to be a senior officer when the time comes.
Two days later, the Youzhou newspaper, the special edition of the imperial examination, came out.
It contains all the lists, as well as twenty more talent theories.
Ten articles on students in Youzhou and ten articles on students outside Youzhou.
In addition, all topics were published in the newspapers.
In this way, the thick one can be bound into a book.
Zhang Ming asked people to bind it into a book.
This volume requires a hundred copper coins, and of course Zhang Ming is selling it at a loss.
In this way, this imperial examination can be regarded as coming to an end.
This time, the impact of the imperial examination is absolutely huge.
The students from outside also slowly dispersed, and half of the princes left.
Xu You and the trial are also leaving, and they have become the big winners of the imperial examination this time.
Xu Yu followed the trial and took away hundreds of people this time, including more than 100 people who won the imperial examination.
Yuan Shao is still big and famous.
Xu You didn't dare to stay here for long, he was afraid that Zhang Ming would attack them.
The people outside Beiping New Town slowly dispersed, and the whole Youzhou seemed to slowly fall into peace.
However, how could the seeds planted by Zhang Ming be calm.
The first imperial examination was successfully held, and the selection of materials in the future should also be based on this standard.
The Maison will gradually lose its monopoly power.
