Chapter 28 Officials
In the classroom, the students of the new administrative class were listening to the class, sitting in a straight posture and looking energetic.
Like the head teacher of countless school classes in later generations, Li Li peeped at the back door and looked at the students in the classroom, whether there were any casualties.
However, these former fighters are now like the soldiers on the second and third rows of the front, concentrating on their minds, as if they are about to fight with the enemy.
Li Li walked into the classroom through the back door, waved his hand to the lecturer behind the podium, signaling him to continue teaching, and stood quietly by himself.
Just like an ordinary student, listen carefully.
This class is about writing official documents. As Li Li listened, he seemed to return to his later generations and became a student who participated in the civil service examination training class and learned how to prepare for the exam.
Civil servants are a modern term, and there was no such statement in ancient times.
If you want to find a similar character, it is a lie.
An official is not a servant who is in charge, but a official who has a membership (salary).
There is a saying, "Poverty of the country must first govern the officials." The "official" here can be understood as an official, and the collective name of officials.
At first, officials collectively referred to, but later officials gradually separated, but the common word "official rule" still refers to officials.
In this era, it is unrealistic to follow the civil service system in later generations, but Li Li believes that to "govern officials" and strengthen the management and functions of officials, we can refer to some practices of the system in later generations.
Therefore, after Li Li established the new dynasty, he began to form a completely different "official team" and slowly replaced the middle-level and grassroots government agencies controlled by the gentry and local tyrants.
Strengthen the central control over local grassroots, get rid of the infiltration and influence of the gentry and wealthy families on the entire government agencies.
The establishment of the Criminal Division and the Transport Division is one of the measures, but the additional institutions require a large number of grassroots officials with "work experience" to maintain operation. Where do these people come from?
Two sources: one is selected from the army; the other is selected from existing grassroots officials.
The army brought by Li Li has a characteristic, which is that in daily training, the soldiers are taught to read and write. Therefore, the soldiers of the Xuzhou Army all have basic cultural level and know how to make basic arithmetics.
Then, Xuzhou has been in charge of local governance for many years and has mobilized many military talents to serve as officials. Therefore, these "military officials" have become Li Li's precious "administrative talents".
Whether it was military farming, organizing wing soldiers, or forming, expanding the General Taxation Department, and later forming the Criminal Division, Transfer Division, and implementing the Procuratorate Temple, Li Li worked hard to train all took on important tasks.
But it was not enough, so the training class was held all the time. The generals selected the officials from the grassroots level in various places, as well as the children of the cold clan as students, and through training, they became qualified administrative personnel - officials.
Then, as a new force, he joined the administrative team of the Xin Dynasty.
Therefore, Li Li can conduct a large-scale inspection of the local government in Sanwu area, and is not afraid of problems with the local government, because the troops he sent can take over the state and county governments at any time.
While maintaining the operation of the public government, we should shoulder the important task of procuring the household registration and the local area.
Then, when the "administrative human resources" available in Li Li became more and more abundant, the era when the aristocrats deeply influenced the operation of the government could end.
Without the children of the gentry to be officials, the new dynasty can ensure the operation of government officials at all levels by constantly training officials.
The training classes in Huaiyin are constantly selected and qualified officials are trained to supplement them to various offices.
Then, for the sake of their own future, these officials had to rely on the chief officials and become their "old officials".
Because if you want to make a name for yourself, someone needs to help you and give you opportunities. How could the emperor remember a certain student in a certain period of training classes in countless training classes?
These people come to the new "battlefield". If they have no support, they can only find another supporter.
Therefore, after several years, the team of officials he worked hard to cultivate would be corrupted and assimilated by the officialdom, and everything would be the same.
What is everything as usual?
That is, the status of an official is very low. Unless the noble person helps him, there is no hope of promotion. It is likely that he will be a grassroots minor official who has been standing still for more than ten or twenty years.
However, a phenomenon in local governments remains unchanged: the flowing chief officer and the unstoppable official officer.
For example, a county magistrate and main assistant officials are changed every few years, but middle and lower-level officials are basically old-fashioned for more than ten or twenty years.
The reason for this is that dynasties in history discriminated against the "officials". Since the Han Dynasty, it has become increasingly difficult to become an official as an official.

Even specializes in official registration, like a lowly registered residence.
Therefore, officials who have no hope of promotion will naturally focus on making money, and their reputation will become more and more despised.
However, the operation of governments at all levels cannot be without officials, so the group of officials has become a chamber pot. Although they are inseparable from daily life, their reputation is very bad.
The people hate clerks and officials also hate these "scums", but they cannot get rid of them. If they are not careful, they will suffer.
For example, if a newly appointed county magistrate does not understand affairs, he will easily be fooled by the county officials below.
These county officials are basically locals, with deep roots and many connections. If the new officials want to rectify them, if they are not careful, they will "kill the tiger but die and suffer."
If the official group is in a stagnant pool for a long time, these officials will collude and deceive their superiors and hide their subordinates.
Some wealthy officials even appeared, underestimating the chief officials, taking charge of lawsuits, and placing fish and making the people.
In contrast, some officials have promoted their subordinates and promoted them, so these subordinates depend on the officials.
He became an official "official official" and regarded him as the "master of the palace".
The lord of the palace and the old officials are both prosperous and prosperous, and the other is both damaged. The officials are no longer officials of the court, but officials of a certain official.
Li Li looked at the students who were listening to the class carefully and felt that he could not sit idly by.
On the battlefield, the coach cannot abandon his soldiers and only care about his own escape.
Now, he cannot abandon these officials who are about to work for him.
Therefore, Li Li tried to change the status quo and use institutionalized management to make the official group active and get rid of the helpless fate of the personal future dependent on a certain official.
Methods: refer to the civil service system in later generations, as well as the actual differences between government officials (corresponding to ancient officials) and affairs officials (corresponding to ancient officials), so that officials can have their own system of upward channels, and receive assessment, rewards, punishments, and transfers in this system.
These officials can be transferred from counties to prefectures and from local to centers based on their assessment results or annual qualifications.
As the "level" increases, the salary also increases, and there is even the opportunity to become an official.
This process is carried out completely according to the rules of the new system. There is no need for officials to over please local officials, and there is no need to follow some local officials to "successful ascension".
When a local official takes office and leaves office, he cannot treat his subordinates as entourage, bring or take away.
Since there is no promotion and the grace of the promotion, the officials' dependence on the officials will naturally gradually collapse.
When officials form cliques and fight against each other, officials with their own systems will not easily join.
Li Li thought about it and thought of a question.
The existing Ministry of Personnel manages officials and officials, but mainly manages officials (appointment, dismissal, assessment, promotion, and transfer). So, what is the official office in charge of "officials"?
