Section 126 Competition
"Ziliang has any good suggestions?" Jiang Feng also attached great importance to Chen Wei's suggestion. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Chen Wei's performance in the Gushi County Order is remarkable, after being promoted to the governor of Huzhou, in just a few months, he was able to handle the government affairs of Huzhou in an orderly manner, and the smooth implementation of the Gushi land inspection policy is of course due to the factors of Chen's cooperation, but it is also related to Chen Wei's proper personnel arrangement.
"In the opinion of the ministers, since the Liang into the Central Plains, the imperial court is located in a corner of the Guanzhong, although there is also a scientific examination system, but because the imperial court does not go out of the Guanzhong, the attraction of the reader is decreasing, if it can, Huaiyou may wish to seek permission from the imperial court, in the Huaiyou department, the scale can be large or small, to attract talents to invest. Chen Wei paused, "The land of the three states of Huaiyou, according to the theory, is naturally not qualified to raise the subject, but Huaiyou is short of talents, if you can absorb talents with scientific examinations, it can also slightly alleviate the risk of insufficiency." ”
Jiang Feng still has a good understanding of the imperial examination system in the Tang Dynasty, which is generally based on the examination first, and then enters the provincial examination, especially the provincial examination is very small in scale and it is not easy to obtain.
As Li Tang's power shrinks, only the relevant places are protected, and the solution and provincial tests are naturally declining, and if he passes the exam but has no official to do, who is still interested?
Because of the abolition of the provincial examination, the endless wars and the expansion of the power of the feudal lords, the influence of the civil official system gradually faded, and was replaced by the increasing prosperity of the military general system, coupled with the prosperity of magic, the civil official system became more and more bleak.
But Jiang Feng also knew that the military general system was very important, and the magic should be advocated even more, but the civil and government affairs system should not be abandoned.
Whether or not the civil government system is effective or not is directly related to the smoothness of a region's government affairs system, and a large number of officials who are familiar with government affairs need to promote such affairs as agriculture, water conservancy, warehousing, criminal law, commercial calculation, taxation, surveying and mapping, construction, and so on.
Even in modern society, whether the operation of this civil bureaucracy system and its extension to the end of the bureaucracy system is smooth or not is directly related to the development of a region's social and economic undertakings.
Jiang Feng believes that under the current feudal era system, it is even more important, and the kind of military general system and magic system that focuses more on immediate interests and ignores long-term benefits.
Chen Wei's proposal to obtain special gifts from the imperial court, first solve the test in the right place of Huai, and then carry out the provincial test, and absorb talents, is undoubtedly a somewhat shocking suggestion.
You must know that the solution to the test is simple, but the provincial test must be in Shangshu Province, how can He De dare to carry out the provincial test in the land of Huaiyou?
However, Chen Wei's suggestion began to open Jiang Feng's way of thinking, that is, to open the solution test, that is, the state test.
The scale of the state examination may wish to be expanded, even if the results are slightly poor, these ordinary scholars can also be sent to the government school for training, and after they are familiar with daily government affairs, they can be arranged to serve as grassroots officials in various states and counties.
This will undoubtedly play a great role in the promotion of local social affairs, and can also curb the control of grassroots political power by local gentry and clan forces to a certain extent.
Chen Wei never imagined that his suggestion would make Jiang Feng think of using these scholars to train as grassroots officials to fight against the local gentry and clan forces, although it is difficult to solve the root cause, but it can form a check and balance to a certain extent.
"Anything else?" Jiang Feng asked with interest.
"Well, the minister thinks that this kind of scientific examination does not need to be strictly limited to the three states, if there are foreign scholars who are willing to participate in the examination, they should also be allowed to sign up in a special way, so as to absorb talents to the greatest extent, after all, there are still too few readers in our Huaiyou land. ”
These words are heartfelt, to a certain extent, they have already damaged the interests of the local gentry, but Chen Wei can still insist on saying it.
I have to say that Chen Wei has suggested more from the perspective of Jiang Feng's ministers at this time, rather than from the perspective of the Chen family.
Jiang Feng was naturally very happy with Chen Wei's suggestions, but Jiang Feng was even happier with Chen Wei's attitude.
This shows that more and more people have begun to be optimistic about themselves and have more confidence in themselves, which is often the key to attracting more talents to work.
Only when everyone thinks that you can succeed in this troubled world, everyone is willing to hand over their fate to you, which is probably a big windfall for this important state and county of Shouzhou to fall into their hands.
The land of the three states and only Huzhou are completely two concepts, the defense and capture of the three states makes this the atmosphere of a vassal lord, and the history of a state assassin is not qualified.
Whether it is Wuyue, which is increasingly highlighting the cultural atmosphere, or Guanzhong, Nanyang, which is known as the emperor's hometown, or Luoyang, Bianliang, and Hedong, which are in the center of the current center, Huaiyou cannot be compared.
For a place to rise, it is not enough to rely on force, magic, and economy alone, but also to gather literary talents, which is an important element of the attractiveness of a place.
Scientific examination has always been the best means for rulers to recruit talents, but the state test is easy to say, and the provincial test needs to have the righteousness of the imperial court.
Since Li Tang's forces retreated in Guanzhong, the provincial test has almost disappeared, and the Li Tang Dynasty still cherishes face.
And the provincial test is not held, and the state test in various places is slowly lonely, such as Hedong, Huaibei, Heshuo, and Liangchuan, which are basically extinct, that is, Daliang, Nanyang, Wuguo, and Yue are still occasionally held.
Of course, the feudal lords in various places will not allow the scholars selected by you Li Tang to become officials on their own territory, isn't that infiltrated?
In fact, like Jiang Feng passed through Nanyang when he went to Chang'an, the Cooking Wine Hero Meeting being held in Nanyang is another form of scientific examination, but it is not a scientific examination of scholars, but a scientific examination of martial artists, and even extends to magic.
This is actually a trend change, with the advent of troubled times, the war continues, the importance of force is becoming more and more prominent, and magic has begun to show its own light in war, so it is naturally more valued.
Relatively speaking, the culture that can be more reflected in the peace season is somewhat overshadowed, so no matter which one it is, it must follow the changes of the times.
Although Jiang Feng also graduated from the Department of History, he didn't know much about the changes in the imperial examination system after the collapse of the late Tang Dynasty, so Chen Wei's suggestions also gave him a lot of inspiration.
This is an era that has gone a little off, or a normal time and space that has been completely different from the original time and space, and the flourishing of martial arts and techniques has gone beyond the scope of the history they have studied, which makes the general trend of history also unpredictable.
But there is one thing that Jiang Feng still firmly believes, that is, the development of a place is also inseparable from the development of all walks of life, and all this together also needs to be managed, and the efficiency of the management of a local political power determines the speed of the development of the strength of the place.
And to improve the management ability of the three-state regime under his command, it is impossible to achieve it without the scholars, so Chen Wei's suggestion made his heart pound.
If there was only one state before, Jiang Feng didn't attach much importance to it, but with the inclusion of Shouzhou and the infiltration of Gwangju from the imperial court, Jiang Feng had to consider countermeasures in this regard.
"Ziliang, you know that I am not very familiar with these situations, Huaiyou Caochuang, many of us here are martial artists, and many things we don't know how to do, including Du Tuo and Wang Huang, they are not familiar with the daily handling of affairs at the state and county level, or they all belong to the type of high-eyed and low-handed, only you are the most proficient in this regard, so I hope you can contribute more ideas and opinions like the ones I just talked about, as long as it is in line with the interests of our Huaiyou, and can make our Huaiyou strength quickly stronger, do not hesitate to put it forward。 ”
Jiang Feng's tone of words was very sincere, and he did not appear arrogant at all because he took Shouzhou and became the defense and capture envoy of Guanghun Shou, and his attitude was even more humble than before.
Moreover, Chen Wei could also feel that Jiang Feng was sincerely showing this attitude, not just a gesture, that is, he realized what the lack of enough literati to serve his regime would bring, which was completely different from those feudal lords who were in power with martial artists.
Jiang Feng's attitude made Chen Wei very heartbroken.
Since the Li Tang Dynasty was expelled from the hinterland of the Central Plains and replaced by the Zhu Liang regime dominated by Li Wufu to dominate the Central Plains, the status of literati has deteriorated.
The increasing number of martial arts cultivators in the major families, and even those who specialize in magic, are increasingly valued, because they are more able to show their brilliance in war and are more likely to be favored by those in power, which cannot but make a group like Chen Wei, who is proud of being literati, feel a sense of crisis.
The tendency in this regard can also be seen from the regime established by Jiang Feng, such as the military generals from the Daliang lineage, including the Xu and Ju families, and the current representatives under Jiang Feng are all from martial arts backgrounds.
In contrast, a literati-born family like the Chen family has become a dispensable existence, and even the merchant power of the Huang family seems to be on the rise.
If it weren't for the strong support he gave to Jiang Feng when he served as the commander of Gushi County, and later stood firmly on Jiang Feng's side, Chen Wei didn't know if Chen would have been eliminated in this round of turmoil.
Now that the territory controlled by Jiang Feng has expanded dramatically, Chen Wei also feels that Jiang Feng is different from other feudal lords, and he has some ideas about the development of these territories.
For example, such as persuading agriculture, developing industry and commerce, water conservancy and road construction, education, etc., in the discussion with himself, he put forward many extremely novel views, and even Chen Wei felt that it was refreshing, and the promotion of many of these affairs was inseparable from the role of literati officials and officials, in Chen Wei's view, this was an opportunity for literati.
