On the way back to the palace, Yuwen Wen and his grandson were talking in the carriage. The little guy wandered around the new site of the Junxia Province for a long time, looked around and asked around, probably knowing what was going on, so he asked his grandfather curiously how he got the political magistrate.

Yuwen Wen made corrections first: "It's not a political magistrate, it's a political magistrate."

"Oh..." Yu Wenxu nodded and asked again: "How did they get it? Did grandpa choose it?"

Yuwen Wen replied: "Yes, not."

Yu Wenxu was a little confused: "Hmm? That's it?"

Yuwen Wen touched his grandson's head and said, "Only a small number of these political affairs were chosen by his grandfather, and most of them were chosen according to the rules, and his grandfather would not interfere."

"Why?"

Yu Wenxu found it difficult to understand. He thought his grandfather was the emperor, and even the three high-ranking officials were appointed by his grandfather. Why was this "fake priest" not appointed by his grandfather?

The questions asked by the child are very profound and cannot be answered in detail. Yuwen Wen didn't want to fool him with "You will know when you grow up". After thinking about it, he gave an example.

For example, Yu Wenxu wanted to go out to play, but he didn't know where to play and didn't know what to play, so he had to ask his playmates to see what their comments were.

However, the playmates have their own opinions, and everyone has their own opinions. Yu Wenxu cannot choose and does not know which suggestion to choose.

The playmates will play with him, but they may not be very happy to play. What should I do?

It would be better to have a vote and choose two or three of the fun items. Everyone voted and chose one from the middle. Which one got the highest votes, everyone would play which project.

"In this way, what allusion can be described?"

Yuwen Wen asked, Yuwen Xu thought for a while and replied, "It is better to have fun with everyone?"

"Yes, it's like playing games and handling state affairs. If grandpa wants to make decisions that more people agree with as much as possible, he has to hold a conference, discuss, and vote. If all these people who participate in the voting are chosen by grandpa, then what's the effort?"

Yu Wenxu seemed to understand, but he didn't understand. He thoughtfully, sat still, and Yu Wen Wen did not disturb him, so he asked grandson to think about it himself.

Since we want to win people's hearts and since we want to implement the representative system (preface), we must be sincere. Therefore, the emperor cannot take charge of the selection of political affairs for the officials.

The political affairs of the Censorate are the foundation of the Censorate. The selection of political affairs of the Censorate determines whether this representative system can represent the interests of the majority of people (interest groups), so a suitable selection system is very important.

The composition of the dynasty is mainly royal family (and royal family), nobles (military), bureaucrats (official officials, local officials), local big families (local snakes, i.e. powerful people, big landlords), and candidates for political affairs must come from these four classes.

After considering the reality and future plans, Yuwen Wen used taxpayers to "replace" local big investors.

Taxpayers are people or "tax subjects" who pay taxes to the state (in-kind tax or monetary tax). Yuwen Wen believes that if taxpayers (or subjects) fulfill their obligations to the state, they are qualified to obtain power.

The taxpayer he defined is a landlord who pays in-kind tax (grain, silk, cotton, etc.), and a businessman who pays monetary tax (specifically refers to industry, trade, and finance).

The royal family, nobles, bureaucrats, and taxpayers, and officials from these four classes were selected. As for the noble gentry...

By relying on the reading of the lords, the era of becoming an official has ended.

Based on this classification, Yuwen Wen formulated a very unique selection system.

In the first round of selection, the "agricultural" among taxpayers were selected and twenty-five officials were selected. The rules are as follows:

The company summarizes the accumulated payment amount of the world's agricultural tax payers over the six years, and classifies the tax amount according to five types: millet and wheat (dry farming in the north), rice (rice farming in the south), cotton silk tea cane, fishing, and animal husbandry, and then ranks the tax amount.

The top five in each type, totaling twenty-five people, whether they are officials or civilians, will be automatically elected as the political affairs officer.

Therefore, the big landlords, planters, fishing boat owners, and cattle and sheep owners have the opportunity. Most of these four types are local tyrants and large households, but they may not be the head of households, or the owners of taxpayers (registered in the government and served for more than five consecutive years before the election).

When it comes to taxes paid, traditional manors cannot be called big landlords. All kinds of new farms are operated by trading companies. As taxpayers, these trading companies pay a large amount of physical taxes to the court every year, and their competitiveness is far greater than traditional landlords.

The ranking of planters is that those local tyrants are highly competitive. Most of the large-scale growers in cotton, silk, tea, cane, and the advantages of fishing boat owners and coastal (including the Lingnan coast) are also obvious.

As for the herds (animal husbandry), the local snakes and border tyrants in Hebei, Daishuo, and Longyou have great advantages.

Because of the actual tax payment behavior, he contributed to the court and took care of the interests of local tyrants and border tyrants, Yuwen Wen's arrangement is reasonable, and after the plan was proposed, the resistance was relatively small.

In the second round of selection, the "industrial and commercial" among taxpayers were selected, and twenty-five officials were selected. The rules were as follows:

The company summarizes the accumulated payment amounts of the world's commercial tax payers and tax payers (counted on the head of the boss) over the six years, and classifies them according to the five types of coal, iron, textile (including knitting), light industry, and heavy industry, and then ranks the tax amounts.

The top five in each type, totaling twenty-five people, whether they are officials or civilians, will be automatically elected as the political affairs officer.

As soon as such rules came out, the government and the public were in an uproar, which was exciting, because for bureaucrats and nobles (scholars), making lowly businessmen appointees as political affairs is simply a rebellious act.

This method of choosing a market tyrant is "the third rank of the same rank", which can be described as "the monkey and the crown".

However, when the specific rankings came out, everyone was embarrassed.

The top "taxpayers" in the five categories of coal, iron, textile, light industry and heavy industry are either "Guanlong and Hedong Coal Group" or "Jinghu and Huangzhou Group", which take Hebei, Henan and the new powerful people in the two Huaihe Rivers.

Most of them are Yuwen Wen's basic foundation, or the "old brothers" of Guanlong Group, and new tycoons operating industries in various places.

The owners behind each taxpayer are either nobles, or newcomers who have evolved from former merchants, clan children, and small landlords.

There is no serious philanthropy, let alone the powerful royal industry and the industrial monsters like Daye Ironmaking Institute have not participated in the "evaluation".

The ranking result was announced at a court meeting. Yuwen Wen couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed even though he was calm. The officials who had once condemned the "monkey-beating crown" were also embarrassed.

Therefore, public opinion is in an uproar, and everyone pretends that it has never happened.

The third round of selection is selected from the nobles (duke). The specific rules are as follows:

There are honors of the Duke (Duke of the State, Duke of the County, Duke of the County), and the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Personnel shall be assessed based on their military achievements (military), political achievements (literature) and other seniority within six years. They are ranked in the top ten in total and are automatically elected as the political affairs officer.

The fourth round of selection is selected from civil and military officials, and the rules are as follows:

Civil and military officials refer to officials who do not have titles or are less than dukes (excluding dukes), who are currently or have served as first-level officials of the Lu and Protectorate Office. The Ministry of War and the Ministry of Personnel shall be assessed based on their military achievements (military), political achievements (civilians) and other seniorities within six years.

The top fifteen of the comprehensive rankings are automatically elected as political officials.

In the fifth round of selection, the candidates were the royal family and were directly selected by the emperor, with a total of five people.

After five rounds, eighty officials and political officials were selected.

In the sixth round of selection, one person will be directly nominated by the three high-ranking officials (total ten) each, and a total of ten nominees will be nominated. They cannot be clan members. They must be officials with official rank and provincial and county officials (at least for three years).

He took office directly after the Ministry of Personnel's "qualification certification review".

The last ten places are directly nominated and appointed by the emperor. The nominees can be either royal family members (no more than three people), officials with official ranks and provincial and county officials (at least for three years).

A total of 100 people of the political affairs of the magistrate were selected according to this rule. Of course, there are another set of rules for selecting Pingzhang's political affairs from the political affairs of the magistrate.

At the same time, a series of regulations to prevent cheating are constantly being improved, such as avoiding taxpayers' continuous name change and frequent changes of owners to "dominate the list" to take advantage of loopholes.

There are also a series of detailed rules that need to be improved in continuous practice, such as various voting and discussion rules, such as vacancies (death, or worry) caused by irresistible power.

In time, all rules and regulations will gradually be improved.

Yuwen Wen carefully evaluated the House of Consciousness, which was about to be "opened", and there were at least thirty iron votes. As long as the edict he issued was not so weird, it would definitely be passed in the House of Consciousness at one time.

One hundred tickets, only thirty iron tickets? It seems like a very desolate feeling?

Of course it is not that sad, because there are only thirty-four officials selected for political affairs.

One hundred officials and officials cannot take office at the same time or step down at the same time. Otherwise, it will lead to excessive personnel changes in the Censorate and affect a series of work. Therefore, the work of selecting officials and officials is divided into three steps:

Thirty-four people were selected in the first phase (the proportion of each batch was appropriately allocated according to the selection rules), thirty-three people were selected in the second phase two years later, and the last thirty-three people were selected in the third phase two (the fourth year).

In this way, the Censorate will not reach the "full" state until four years later.

Since then, the Censorate has held part of the election of political affairs for the political affairs of the Communist Party of China every two years, achieving a regular alternation between the old and the new.

It also gives interest groups of all parties the opportunity to "innovate" and "take turns to take turns to take the banker" every two years.

After four years, Yuwen Wen felt that he could afford to wait. Even if there was a change in the middle and he "collapsed", the system would still be implemented.

Because this is a system he sets and is recognized and supported by interest groups from all parties, even if his crown prince succeeds to the throne, it cannot change the fait accompli.

Thinking of this, Yuwen Wen looked at his grandson, and Yuwen Xu was still pondering, wanting to understand his grandfather’s explanation.

Yuwen Wen touched his grandson's head and looked out the window.

He has already built up the architecture, and the future depends on the luck of his children and grandchildren.
