815, a group of "boat passengers"
In ancient times, the promotion of local official positions meant that there would be many more official positions. If a county is established according to the Tang Dynasty, that is, a county order and a county cheng, at most a county lieutenant and a county master book. A county is four officials who can have the official rank of the imperial court. But if it becomes a state, it is a fundamental change. All kinds of officials in a state have risen to the top, and the original county and a few scholars have all become Zhu Cao joining the army, but the regular and high-grade officials of the imperial court have entered. In addition, what is the doctor in charge of education, what is the doctor in charge of medicine, and even various Changshi Sima and other adjutants, these are all high-grade officials in the imperial court. And the number of subordinate members has also increased a lot, so these are all vacant official positions one by one.
Therefore, these are all fat meats, which are enough to make people's eyes red. This is the benefit of upgrading the local level, and the official position can be increased a lot out of thin air, so that for local officials, this is an opportunity to be promoted. Therefore, many local officials hope that their place can be promoted, so that they can also directly ignore merit and what various qualifications are promoted to official positions, this kind of opportunity is rare once in a hundred years, maybe this is the same time in an official's life. So many officials are also keen on this kind of promotion, but this kind of opportunity is too difficult.
"Everyone, the emperor's will has come down, saying that let's hurry up and prepare for the upgrading of Mengjin County this time. Mengjin is about to be promoted to Mengzhou, and in the future, we will be treated as a lower state, so the state assassin history is also a four-rank official position, and all of you here will also be able to rise to the top. As for what position you can get next, it depends on everyone's contribution. If we can contribute enough, then I and the county commander Ma Zhou, and maybe the future state assassin history, will also ensure that everyone is promoted to official positions. Even, we can use it exceptionally, so that those officials who are not in the flow are in the first place. They also have the opportunity to become official officials. Jingwen said.
"Long live the emperor!" "Long live the emperor!" "Long live the emperor!"
Who doesn't like to be promoted, so everyone is here to chant long live the emperor. As for the next, the happiest are still those ordinary books. Originally, each county corresponded to the six departments of the center, that is, to set up several books, such as the Sihu Shuzuo, or the Sibing Shuzuo. And although these scholars claim to be leaders, they are actually officials who have not entered the stream. However, if Mengjin County can become Mengzhou, then there is a great chance that these scholars can directly transfer to become Zhu Cao of the eighth to ninth rank to join the army. These officers who joined the army were all in-stream officials, who were responsible for all aspects of affairs, and were equivalent to the directors of the bureaus under a city in later generations.
So. They are the happiest. It is too difficult to take this step and be able to become an official from a small official. Although the integration of officials is currently implemented in Chang'an, only a small number of lucky people can do so. Moreover, those small officials in Chang'an who can become officials have to compete with those female second-generation officials, which has to be said to be not very fair. But now that they have ascended to the sky in one step, they have directly become officials who have entered the stream, which has simply improved their salaries a lot.
There is a big gap between the officials who enter the stream and the petty officials who do not. The officials who enter the stream have a job to do it. That is, to obtain land use rights according to grades, so that these lands can be rented out, and a lot of income can be obtained. Moreover, officials with high grades can obtain more Yongye Fields, that is, land that can be inherited from generation to generation. This is enough for them to become a small landlord and ascend to the sky in one step at a time. Originally, they were not eligible for these benefits, but now that they can get them, can they not be excited?
They never dreamed of it. I still have this day. They had already despaired of their future, but now they were suddenly able to become official officials. Once they became official officials, they were then eligible to participate in various competitions within the imperial court. All kinds of official positions may be further promoted. With a rank of official, it means that they are the ticket to the power of the imperial court. And if you don't get a formal rank, then at most you are an official, a person who is commanded, not a real leader, not a member of the ruling class. Now they have succeeded in changing from the ruled class to the ruling class, which is a great blessing.
"Lord Jingwen, you will be our benefactor in the future, you let us go east, we will never go west!" A small official said.
"Yes, Lord Jingwen, we will all listen to you in the future, as long as you give an order, then we will absolutely obey!" Another guy said the same.
I have to say that the characteristics of this era, that is, the personal attachment between officials is very strong, and all kinds of personal attachment have caused everyone to prosper and lose. So since they relied on Jingwen to obtain the official position, it is naturally equivalent to Jingwen's sphere of influence. They are also regarded as Jingwen's people, who let them rely on Jingwen's recommendation to get the official position! I can't get rid of this even if I want to, after all, the natural type has formed a faction, and I can't get rid of it at all.
Since they are on Jingwen's "downwind boat", they can only follow Jingwen, the "helmsman", and as for where they go, it depends on Jingwen's wishes. After all, the downwind ship is not so easy to do, since it is a downwind ship, it is up to the captain and the helmsman, let the captain and the helmsman decide the future course, and ordinary sailors can only follow the captain's orders, be responsible for charging when needed, and then follow the ship to share the same fate.
"Okay, what position we can get in the future depends on everyone's efforts during this time. It's only in the preparatory stage now, so an accident can happen, so everyone must prepare well and no one will have an accident. If something happens, we're in for a break! Jingwen said.
"That's right, whoever drops the chain at this time, then we will definitely not let him go!" Someone immediately said.
"Yes, if anyone drops the chain, then we will all abolish him!"
Then, everyone said one after another, if anyone dropped the chain and delayed everyone's future, then he jumped into the Yangtze River and didn't come back. I have to say that the desire to be promoted and make a fortune has filled everyone with the energy to do things. (To be continued......)
