Chapter 700: Four Light Commanders
Zhang Ji finally came to Annan, but he didn't come alone, he came with him, and his new wife.
The two had just been married for three days, and after completing the corresponding process according to the etiquette system, the husband and wife stepped on the train to Chang'an on the fourth day after their marriage.
Then he stayed in Chang'an for half a month, waited for the distribution of the officials, and got the relevant information, went to Chang'an County to study for a few days, and then followed the large army to embark on the train to the east, to Haizhou to take a boat, all the way south, straight to Annam.
But since arriving in Annan, Zhang Ji has not been happy.
As a newlywed wife, Zhang Ji's wife is not happy, but there is no way, wives have the rules of wives, and there are some things that women cannot interfere with.
Zhang Ji's position had been determined as early as in Chang'an, and he was the head of Nan'an County.
How to say this position, the third in command of a county, the old nature is the county order, the second is the county leader, the third is the main thin, and the fourth is the county lieutenant.
There are four officials in a county, there are grades, of course, this refers to the middle and lower counties.
The rest of the Wuhou and other departments, although they are also official officials, but their number one is not yet a serious official, but how to say it, although the Wuhou Institute is under the jurisdiction of the counties, their relationship is not in the counties.
Instead, each state sets up a Wuhou Division, and the director is Zhengliupinshang, who is responsible for the assessment and operation of the Wuhou Institute in each county in the state, and even if it is promoted, it is also a promotion within the system, and it has nothing to do with each county.
The court is the same model as Wuhou's, but due to talent restrictions and other reasons, there is no need to set up a court in every county.
Therefore, it is also necessary to set up a state court in each state, and further down, according to every five counties, set up a county court to set up, in the case of Nan'an County, don't think about these things, even the Wuhou Office is very informal, or in other words, there is no Wuhou Office at all.
In addition, there are only more than 6,000 people in Nan'an County, which is not as many as a few big villages in Datang, and it is the southernmost place, transportation, economy, etc., all aspects are very backward, which makes the officials who come here very depressed, depressed don't want it.
To be precise, there are only four officials sent to Nan'an County by the imperial court, the county commander Sun Miao, the previous county Cheng of Xia County, Liu Yu of the county, the former county lieutenant of Xia County, the main Bo Zhang Ji, the former teacher of Chang'an Academy, Qin Huaizhi, the captain of the Wuhou Institute, was a Wuhou in a county in the Central Plains, some level, but there is still a certain distance to be promoted, plus Fan Cheng, the county lieutenant who was demoted and retained, these five people are the leadership team of Nan'an County.
Qin Huaizhi is not an official to be precise, but this time, the captain of the Wuhou Institute was also included in the ranks of the nine products, and the imperial court sent at least one experienced Wuhou to every state and county in Annan, and wanted to hand over the state and other cities, and even went to a team of ten people, from top to bottom, the leading backbone team was directly in a complete set.
"Husband, it's so desolate here......" As soon as she came back from a meeting in the county, Zhang Ji's wife grabbed Zhang Ji's arm with an aggrieved face and said, tears almost fell uncontrollably.
As one of the leaders of Nan'an County, Zhang Ji is naturally qualified to enjoy a set of courtyards, and his courtyard is not far from the county government, and it is only within a hundred steps of walking.
"Wronged madam!" Zhang Ji snorted, but couldn't say anything.
What else is there to say? Isn't it normal for a newlywed to come to such a desolate place and feel aggrieved?
A little girl of sixteen or seventeen, suddenly about to marry someone she has never seen before, and then have to follow him thousands of miles away from her hometown, originally thought that she had fished a golden beetle son-in-law, but she never thought that the golden turtle son-in-law came directly to the ditch, and it was strange if she was not wronged at this time.
"Husband, when can we go back? I'm a little homesick......"
Zhang Ji was stunned, it was not only his wife who wanted to go home, but he also wanted to go home, even when he was in Chang'an, he didn't feel so eager now.
I believe that I am not the only one who has this kind of thought, and I am afraid that most of the officials who have come here have this kind of thought.
After all, Annan is still too desolate, this is not his home after all, and it is still so far away from home.
Those of them who came to Annan, without exception, were all promoted, and the promotion level was high and low, just like the county magistrate Sun Miao, who was directly promoted from the lower county under the ninth grade to the lower county magistrate from the seventh grade, if he didn't choose to come here, if he wanted to be promoted to the county magistrate locally, it might take ten or twenty years of hard work to do it.
The promotion at the grassroots level is slow, and it is still the most backward place in the lower county, and the county order is a watershed in the official class, and it is difficult for officials below the county order to become the county order, but the county order, if you are lucky, it only takes five years to be promoted to the state capital, and if you are unlucky, ten years is about the same, even if you can't be promoted, you can change places and continue to be the county order.
All in all, it is much easier for the county order to go up than the county magistrate, the county lieutenant, and the lord.
Isn't this the case with Zhang Ji?
He went from a college teacher with no experience in governing to a county lord, and this promotion level is no less than others, it can be said that in the entire five-person team, Zhang Ji's promotion is the largest.
"The husband has no experience in governance, the court can trust the husband so much, and the husband will be appointed as the main secretary, and the husband will not be able to live up to the trust of the court, and when the situation in Nan'an improves and stabilizes, the husband will apply to be transferred back, and when the time comes, whether it is to go back to be an official, or to go back to the academy to teach, it is a good choice for the husband." Zhang Ji said seriously, it's okay to be homesick, but the court promoted them exceptionally, not to let them come homesick, but thinking of the wronged wife, Zhang Ji couldn't bear it.
After all, I don't know the place here, I have to go to the yamen during the day, and my wife is alone at home, and I can't even find anyone to talk to" In this way, after a period of stability, I asked someone to bring back a letter to see if I could let your second brother's family come over, there is still a lot of wasteland here, and when the time comes, rent some, let your second brother's family come here to farm, and I can talk to you on weekdays. ”
Tears of emotion instantly fell from Madame's eyes, if there were relatives by her side, this life would naturally be better.
My second brother's family is just an ordinary farmer, because they are too honest, they can't go out to work, they can't do anything, and they are often bullied, so they can only farm at home.
If the second brother's family can come here to farm, it can not only solve their family's livelihood, but also accompany themselves to relieve their boredom, plus Zhang Ji is the master of Nan'an, at least here, no one dares to bully their family.
As for bullying others, forget it, as long as her second brother's three sticks can't beat a fart, if others don't bully him, burn high incense.
At this time, the woman is the most vulnerable, the husband and wife have eaten a light meal, and they fell asleep early, although they are far away from home, but today Zhang Ji gave her hope, at least this life has a little hope.
So, when she went to bed at night, she was fiercely grateful for Zhang Ji's thoughtfulness.
After a period of tumbling, the beautiful woman next to her fell asleep with full happiness, but Zhang Ji couldn't sleep at all.
At this moment, my mind is full of work problems.
Is the main thin easy to do? It's not easy to do at all, at least for him, a newcomer, it's hard.
The main task of the main book is to manage the daily work of the county government such as the clerk, which can be regarded as the secretary of the county order, in the past, the status of the main book is still very important, but with the reform again and again, the status of the main book has long been inferior to the past, but now it is still not negligible.
Under the command of the main Bo, there are six Caos, including Gong Cao, Cang Cao, Hu Cao, Bing Cao, Fa Cao, and Shi Cao, and these six Cao were also called by the main Bo at the earliest, but in order to distinguish them from the main Bo, they were later changed to join the army, that is, Si Gong joined the army, Si Cang joined the army, Si Hu joined the army, Si Bing joined the army, the judiciary joined the army, and the six Si Shi joined the army.
Si Gong joined the army and was mainly responsible for the assessment of the county's officials, the dispatch of envoys on holidays, the selection and recommendation, sacrifices, auspiciousness, Taoist Buddha, schools, expressions, books, medicine, and tabernacles, etc., which was the most important one of the six Cao.
Si Cang's task to join the army is related to food, including measuring land, collecting taxes, managing standing positions, etc., now there is no collection of taxes, and there is a separate tax office for taxation, so Si Cang's right to join the army has been weakened.
Joining the army is to manage household registration, accounting, roads, and population movements.
It was very important for the soldiers to join the army, but now there are only two tasks, do a good job in publicity, do a good job for the annual conscription, and the soldiers are responsible for the selection and reporting in the early stage, and the other is to manage the post station.
Judicial participation in the army, well, sorry, this one has been withdrawn, or rather, it has been split into two, one part went to the Wuhou Office, and the other part went to the court.
When a sergeant joins the army, he is in charge of bridges......
This is gone, and now there are only four Caos left, which is what is left after the previous reforms, and no one knows if these four Caos will also be canceled in the future.
But for now, there is a huge problem in front of Zhang Ji.
There was no one in his hands to use.
These four joining the army are the top priorities under him, and they are indispensable, and they must be trustworthy enough to do so.
I came empty-handed, and I didn't bring enough people, and I couldn't bring enough people, if it was an experienced old master, it would be okay, but the problem was that I didn't have a lot of experience, and I only had a few days of experience in Chang'an County.
So, the rest of the work is very difficult for him.
Fortunately, the officialdom of Nan'an County was not greatly affected in this turmoil, although the official ability is insufficient, but it is much better than no one is available, the county order Sun Miao gave Zhang Ji a suggestion, from the existing four Cao to select, pick out the right person to serve temporarily, if suitable, continue, if not suitable, replace, and during this time Sun Miao will also help him keep an eye on the point, after all, he is born in the main thin, in front of his own task, Sun Miao still has more right to speak.
But this also shows the problem of insufficient Zhang Ji's ability.
