In the summer season, it was very hot, Lu Yuan's clothes were half open, and he sat in the courtyard with a pu fan to enjoy the coolness.

And this time.

Governor of the Interior Tang Ying and Supervisor Caiyi of the Ministry of Personnel walked in.

Tang Ying frowned, and said to Lu Yuan coquettishly: "Lu Lang, the citizens' assemblies in various counties are now in chaos, and the citizens' assemblies in Guantao County have even started a fight!" We can't ignore it, the newly formed production brigade is still waiting for people to organize production! ”

Caiyi also nodded: "Yes, uncle!" ”

Lu Yuan was very indifferent, stood up, and patted Tang Ying's buttocks: "What are you afraid of, these husbands have already expected it!" ”

Tang Ying glared at him coquettishly: "Then what should I do, Lu Lang?" ”

"You, the young grandmother of the mighty army and the chief governor of the interior, immediately issued an order, on the grounds that the people's wisdom has not been opened and the education has not been opened, the citizens' assembly will no longer recommend and vote on the positions of the directors of the production brigades and production teams and production groups, but will be recommended by the civil affairs minister, and the citizens' assembly will vote, and the civil affairs affairs affairs must recommend three people, and then the three people themselves will give speeches at the citizens' assembly, and then the citizens' assembly will vote on one person, if the vote is not within one month, the internal affairs governor will directly appoint them, and if they vote, they will still be signed and appointed by the internal affairs governor."

Lu Yuan said.

After hearing this, Tang Ying asked, "What does Lu Lang mean to increase the power of civil affairs?" No more substantive votes by the people? ”

"My wife is really wise, and she might as well serve her husband many times in person."

Lu Yuan grabbed Tang Ying's waist, said with a smile, and said: "In this way, you and I only need to appoint the governor of the interior and the civil affairs minister, as long as the civil affairs affairs we cultivate are not hardcore supporters of the gentry, and the people he recommends are definitely not the people that the gentry are satisfied with, and in this way, these civil affairs affairs are also easy to govern, otherwise the people below are not their own people, how can they innovate and eliminate cheats, and how to fight with local tyrants." ”

Lu Yuan said and said: "And it is not very likely that the civil affairs will form a party for personal gain, because there is also an internal affairs governor to check and balance him, of course, if the two of them wear a pair of pants, it will be dangerous, just like you and I become husband and wife, sleep together and think all the way." ”

Lu Yuan smiled evilly as he spoke, teasing Tang Ying.

Tang Ying couldn't help but be shy: "Lu Lang, you are not serious!" According to you, what we have to do is we can't let them become husband and wife, collude together, we have to let them check and balance, right? ”

"Exactly!"

Lu Yuan nodded.

Tang Ying also said to Caiyi at this time: "According to what Lu Lang said, do it." ”

"Yes!"

Caiyi nodded.

Thereupon.

The citizens' assemblies and civil affairs offices of Guantao, Tangyi, and Pingshan counties resumed the procedures for the appointment and dismissal of grassroots officials.

Because the internal affairs governors and civil affairs officials of the three counties of Guantao, Tangyi, and Pingshan were all directly appointed by Lu Yuan and Tang Ying, Lu Yuan would not worry that the grassroots officials would be controlled by the local gentry.

And because of this.

The first citizens' assembly in Guantao County also had to be reopened.

And Liu Liangru, a squire who is a citizen representative, was quite depressed about this, and couldn't help but say to Lan Guanwei: "It is a strange thing to let a group of white Ding enter the citizens' assembly, and the citizens' assembly can vote on resolutions smoothly!" Now it is recommended by the civil affairs officer, and everyone only needs to supervise whether the civil affairs recommender is fair! ”

"O good man! This matter is not a good thing, in this way, the civil affairs are more powerful than the previous county orders, you think about it, the production brigades and production teams and even the directors of the production team are all the people he recommends, naturally they are all his people, it is not easy for him to control us? The previous county order was not so powerful, the former governor was not served by the county lord, it was the township grain to do more, that is, our squire was in charge, now it's good, the people under the bottom are recommended by his civil affairs, what else can we manage! ”

Lan Guanwei thumped his feet and stiffened his chest.

Liu Liangru was very remorseful when he heard Lan Guanwei say this, but he also had to say: "But Lord Lu gave us the opportunity to vote first, and we didn't do a good job!" ”

Lan Guanwei also knew that these squires had nothing to say now, so he only said angrily: "If you want me to say, what kind of people are those Bai Ding!" But now they really regard them as people! The world should only be governed by scholars and the Son of Heaven! ”

Peng Kaiqian, the civil affairs officer of Guantao County, began the work of appointing relevant township covenants and grassroots officials in accordance with the system determined by Lu Yuan.

Therefore, regarding the appointment of the director of the new production brigade in Guantao County, Peng Kaiqian also officially recommended Lu Rui, Gu Dan, and He Mazi as candidates for the director of the new production brigade.

Because Peng Kaiqian was born as a homeless person, the people who were selected were all people of the same class as himself, and they were all veterans who had retired from the field soldiers in the bureau like Peng Kaiqian.

Liu Liangru, the citizen representative of the Senate of the Guantao County Citizens' Assembly, was not very willing to accept this, after all, the three candidates were not from their scholar class, but soldiers.

Liu Liangru couldn't help but say at the citizens' meeting: "The candidates are all people who are in the army, this is the image of the martial arts in power, not a matter of good governance!" ”

"The surname Liu, what nonsense is in his mouth, if he wants to choose, he will choose what to say, if the martial artist is not in power, what is the matter with your mother, at least they are all the people of the official, they are the people who have killed Jiannu, and they will be more knowledgeable in bringing the militia in the future!"

Yan Ergou still quarreled with Liu Liangru.

However, the Senate and the House of Representatives in Guantao County did not wait long and continued to start voting, mainly because the Senate no longer had the heart to quarrel with the House of Representatives, and the House of Representatives was also very willing to see the vote passed quickly.

After the speeches of these three candidates, except for a small number of abstentions and random elections, most of them voted for Lu Rui, a person who is more literate and has a more fluent speech.

And the same is true of the House of Representatives.

As a result, after the appointment was signed by Governor of the Interior Huang Qiutong, Lu Rui successfully became the new director of the production brigade.

Coincidentally.

The two counties of Tangyi and Pingshan also officially implemented this.

However, Wendeng County still temporarily carried out military management because the popular base was not enough, but did not implement it in this way.

The same is true for Heiyang Mountain in Henan.

But in any case, Lu Yuan not only achieved the purpose of allowing himself to control the local government at any time, but also increased the ability of local autonomy to avoid the situation that the local government could not deal with at any time according to its actual situation and could only ask the central government for instructions, and at the same time, it also limited the power of the gentry.

"As soon as the local civil affairs system is established, next, it can be directly copied that we don't need to change it at the central level, just you and I can be arbitrary, but small things can be discussed by the ministry, and major matters can be discussed by several departments to form a committee, and now we only need to do a good job of construction and preparation for war!" Your civil affairs are mainly to build and save all important strategic resources, while our military and political affairs are ready to fight big and vicious battles at any time. ”

Lu Yuan said to Tang Ying.

Tang Ying nodded: "What Lu Lang said is, for this reason, I have officially issued the performance appraisal system you said, from the central ministries to the local counties, there are assessment standards related to the completion of strategic resources and the improvement of people's quality of life, which are directly responsible for Caiyi, and use this to determine their promotion and deposition." ”。

"That's great!" Lu Yuan nodded with a smile, and then hugged Tang Ying: "Let's continue to create people." ”

Tang Ying couldn't help blushing: "Lu Lang, it's not dark yet." ”
