The official style of the Great Wei Dynasty was originally quite good. During the Taizu period, the Censorate was set up, and the inspectors were set up everywhere, which was to inspect the officials for any illegal affairs.

With the generous salary and newspaper supervision, the official style is quite good before the beginning of the country and the middle of the country.

Later, when industry and commerce were developed, the income of state taxation became lower and lower. In addition to heavy military expenditure, the spread of officials' privileges and corruption were also an important reason for the decline of national strength.

After all, officials are still subject to too few restrictions. In addition to the local system, the inspectors seem to be able to act independently, but in fact they are also subject to the constraints of the bureaucracy from the center to the local area.

The inspector is also a human being, and he may also be greedy for money. If his body is not upright, how can he correct others?

This system will inevitably fail after a long time.

The anti-corruption system of Nan'an Hou Mansion seems to be much more severe than the original ones of the Great Wei.

"A hundred households, Is it okay to say that I am in a like-minded person with you, and I will not be able to do it with you voluntarily?"

"It's a joke." He Baihu shook his head and said, "Every time a hundred officials take office, the king and the lord have to scold him. Wine is not allowed to eat the people, and meat is not allowed, let alone money. People are close to officials, either fear or seek benefits. How can they give their own wine, meat and money for no reason? When officials get along with the people, they don't want money to deal with them. When marriages and funerals are met, officials are allowed to go to the people, and the people are not allowed to come to the officials. For example, if my daughter wants to get married next year, she can only invite relatives to the closest relatives. Even if she comes to the house, she is not allowed to receive them, let alone receive gifts."

Huang Laigui was shocked and said, "The rules are too strict."

"This set was decided by the lord and the civil servant standard of Nan'an Hou. Well, it sounds a bit strange, but it's getting more and more detailed. But it's better to have this. As long as we follow the public and the law, the benefits are greater than in the Great Wei Dynasty. First, the salary is higher, and second, there is no need to involve human relations. Everything depends on the standard of official affairs, which will reduce many headaches and constraints and concerns about human relations. Third, the people do not have to support us, but we don't have to support our superiors. It is also much cheaper."

He Baihu laughed as he talked and Huang Laigui nodded repeatedly, feeling that this is indeed the case.

"Besides, I have something to do, please give me a message." He Baihu stood up and bowed: "I also want to ask my brother to talk to Lingzun Lingtang. When the year-end votes, I must vote for me."

Huang Laigui was confused and said, "What does this mean?"

"The officials in our Dongfan are not close to the people. The officials who are close to the secretary's cabinet are the officials' house assessments. The officials who are close to the people are like me. At the end of the year, all the people with more than 15 in the households will be convened to vote, and those who are literate and write votes, and those who are illiterate and illiterate. Those who recognize me for work, vote red beans, and those who do not recognize me, think I am incompetent, and those who are black beans."

He Baihu said with a bitter face: "It is said that the superiors are wise and the subordinates are foolish. We, the kings, don't say that. Last time we convened the meeting, the kings, said, "The officials are very clear about the people. So at the end of the year, don't wait for the superiors to be assessed. The people are not very useful. You should ask the people to come and vote. If the red beans are bigger than the black beans, it means that you are attentive in your work. If there are those who don't understand or offend people because of their management, as long as you do things with your heart, there are still more red beans than black beans. If you wait for those who are not attentive, you will only buy good-looking officials. Even if some people are bewitched and voted for him, more people will still know him and will only throw black beans with him. There are more black beans than red beans, and you will immediately be dismissed. If there is no important fault, you will not pursue the crime and only demoted to the lowest-level official. Let's start over..."

"Can't the people dismiss officials like this?"

"That's right," He Baihu said in a deep voice: "This is what the lord and lords mean. Inspector officials may not be competent. Audit officials may also be negligent after a long time. Only when the people make such decisions can the people-friendly officials not slack off or bully them, fishing for the people."

"Then it becomes the people who choose officials..."

"Not necessarily." He Baihu said: "Even if I was elected, the people from the secretary's office would send a new hundred households. Junhou said that the people's wisdom has not been opened until they are divided into tribes, and there will always be people secretly contacting and colluding. If the officials of the households are elected by the people, there will inevitably be people from the big clans, or brave, or even scoundrels and strong men who use temptations and coercion to force the people to choose them as the hundred households. In this way, the Nan'an Marquis Mansion will lose control of the hundred households and become a territory for these people to act as the ones who are arrogant and cannot be selected. This is the same reason. If the households really oppress the people and are incompetent, they can still be exempted. The Marquis Mansion will still appoint new people. Of course, the new households must abide by the law and do their best to do their best, otherwise they may still be elected."

It seems that He Baihu has a deep study of this system. He said it was very clear, but Huang Laigui was dizzy when he heard it. How could he know so deeply about these things? After that, he could no longer answer the words.

"I'm too much. Anyway, please Brother Huang must tell me something nice."

He Baihu didn't say much, and stood up and sent Huang Laigui out. His attitude was not only polite, but even a little humble.

Huang Laigui was also a person who had dealt with officials, but this was the first time he saw an official so polite. He felt like he was in a dream for a moment, and his mind was confused. He only slowly woke up when he walked out of the official hall of the Hundred Houses and saw the crowd coming and going.

There are many officials in the official department, including agricultural officials, medical officials, workers and officials, and others, and there are also assistance from officials. There are more than ten officials in this hundred households alone.

If they were on Fujian Road, these officials who were in charge of hundreds of people were Lijia and officials, and they were also civil servants. They wore tender grass-colored officials' uniforms and were arrogant. When the people saw that they needed to bow and salute, they all passed by proudly and did not take ordinary people seriously.

If the county's guards, yamen, managers, warehouse envoys, etc. are even tall and big, with a status far above ordinary people, ordinary people have no chance to come forward to say hello and salute.

It is difficult to support a clerk in a village. You must be respectful and give benefits during festivals. Otherwise, when you decide to go up to the fields, or go down to the fields, or make various miscellaneous taxes, it will make ordinary people worse than death.

Here, he was turned upside down. Huang Laigui didn't know whether it was good or bad, but he just felt that he was a little more at ease.

With a happy mood, Huang Laigui walked east on the east and west avenues that run through the main axis in the village, but there was a little novel along the way. The front and back of the houses of each house were cleaned quite clean. This is called getting used to the sewage flowing in the village and the ground full of garbage. Huang Laigui felt quite novel.

And before each alley, there is another big drum standing, but I don’t know what the purpose is?

When I arrived at the Seventh Alley, it was where the Seventh Little Banner was located. I walked from the south to the north and asked a few children who were playing, and found my parents' home in Dongfan Island.

The same courtyard and the same house, the difference is that the door head has a door number. Huang Laigui took a look and remembered it in his heart, but he didn't have to ask again next time.

The Nan'an Marquis Mansion also allows each family to use different decorations, and even change the tiles, gatehouses, and gates to different colors, but the people are willing to spend time on this matter, but there is no family.

A lot of energy is consumed in the farmland every day, and the courtyard is so beautiful and neat. Who would be willing to pay more of such thankless things?

Huang Laigui pushed the door open and first saw some agricultural tools placed in the doorman and grain storage, which contained a few shallow stones of grain. Huang Laigui knew that this was the grain borrowed by the Nan'an Hou Mansion first. Each family established a contract to borrow grain according to a different population. This was also the content of the immigration and refugee resettlement plan.

If you come to the island, you have to look for clothes and food and prepare for food. If you are afraid that the refugees will still come, but you will complain. Even if ordinary immigrants think about the identity of the official household in the Nan'an Marquis' Mansion, they will hesitate. It will not be like this now, and a large number of immigrants will still come one after another.

If you treat others with sincerity, you will repay them with sincerity. Vacant and immigrants will also be sent out with letters, and some people may even return to their hometown briefly. The situation in Dongfan has also been transformed into a very high reputation and spread throughout Fujian Road. If not, how can we attract more people?

The floor of the door house is also paved with bricks, not mud. Looking at the yard, it is about twenty steps left and right, not small. A large vegetable field is opened in the southwest corner of the yard, which is already full of green.

"Dad, Mom." Through the brick and stone road, it extends to the front of the main hall. The door of the hall was wide open, but no one was included. The furnishings inside were quite simple, with only a long altar table, with several simple chairs on both sides, and there were no paintings hanging on the walls. The most valuable thing in the house should be the five bronze offerings of the Gongshen.

There was no one in the main hall, Huang Laigui shouted, but there were responses from the two side rooms on the east side, and the sound was filled with surprise.

Two old men in their fifties pushed open the door of the room one after another, Huang Laigui's eyes became hot and he took two steps forward.

Both old men were in their early fifties and looked strong. The south wing room was a stove, and the fire was on. Huang Laigui looked at the weather. It was probably the end of noon, and it was still too early to cook dinner.

"Son, I pay homage to my father, mom." At this time, people would not make any intimate moves. After Huang Laigui took two steps forward, he bowed his hands and bowed respectfully to his parents.

"Boss, you seem to be a little thin?" Huang's mother smiled and looked at her son a few times, but she said with some concern: "Are you having a drink again on the boat and not having a good meal?"

"I haven't lost weight." Huang Laigui smiled and said, "It's good to eat well and sleep, but how can I lose weight? I can't eat alcohol anymore. Now the rules of the Nan'an Marquis Mansion are very strict. Who dares to eat alcohol on the boat and chase it down immediately. The mission is lost and the retirement money is gone. Who dares?"

"Be more careful," Huang's father said in a deep voice: "You have made a lot of money on the boat before, and the government has collected a lot, but you should have saved a few of them. They are all drinking, gambling, and not saving a penny. Now, even if the Marquis's mansion gives you retirement money in the future, you still have to save some of them yourself. How old are you, and you don't even say a wife. It's said that you are sorry for your brothers for your father, but your brothers should also be more prosperous. What can you do if you are poor and small families?"

When Huang's father mentioned this, he always got angry. He hated that he had not saved much wealth, which made his family very painful. Both sons were not married and were almost thirty years old. This is actually quite normal for poor families on Fujian Road, but the father of any family would inevitably blame himself deeply.
