Su Yonglin's sudden appearance obviously shocked Qiao Feng. He widened his eyes, opened his mouth slightly, and hesitated and could not speak.

The other few bowed to him slightly, and Tian Guizi seemed to want to say something, but Su Yonglin reached out to stop him.

"Guizi, I understand your feelings, and I don't need to say anything. I just want to know why the root of this matter is in me, why I made you dissatisfied, and where are you dissatisfied?"

"Chairman, I..."

Qiao Feng was obviously frightened by Su Yonglin's sudden appearance. Su Yonglin was not in a hurry, and pulled a chair and placed it in front of Qiao Feng, sat down in front of him.

"When I was in Guangzhou, I talked to Hu Xin. What he meant was that I didn't pay enough attention to you old people who fought with me, because some of you were obviously the first to raise up with me, but now they are just working in less high positions.

And some people who have less qualifications than you have risen all the way, even stepping on the heads of you old people and becoming your immediate bosses. You are very dissatisfied with this, so you want to be promoted together, right?"

Qiao Feng hesitated for a while, but still looked like he couldn't say anything. It seemed that Su Yonglin was too shocked to him.

"I thought we were comrades, and you should recognize me more, but now it seems that you are more afraid of me, and this may be my problem."

Su Yonglin sighed helplessly: "Are you so afraid of me? Is it because of me or your own?"

After a very uncomfortable silence, Qiao Feng finally realized his situation at this moment.

He finally chose to give up resistance.

"Chairman, would you be angry if I told the truth?"

Su Yonglin shook his head.

"I won't be angry if you tell the truth, I will be angry if you commit a crime."

"We are dissatisfied because you have too high demands on us."

Qiao Feng spread his hands and said bitterly: "You can't take concubines, buy land, run business, and pursue luxury. You can't do anything that can be done by big fish, meat, and big food. We must avoid things that officials of all dynasties have been accustomed to by all the dynasties. This... this requirement is too high."

Su Yonglin shook his head.

"It is precisely because officials of all dynasties are accustomed to it that they have seized too many social resources, causing severe gaps between the rich and the poor and social injustice, which eventually led to the collapse of the dynasty, endless wars, and tens of millions of people who died or injured. Isn't this lesson enough?

This is the fundamental reason why dynasties perished. Everything else was just written by the rulers to cover up class contradictions. Class contradictions are the most fundamental contradictions, and the ruling class’s misconduct is the biggest obstacle to solving the problem. And more importantly, the Ming Dynasty is not the so-called [thousand dynasties].”

Qiao Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"That's right, but...but these requirements are too...too depressing. Except for work, it's work, and almost nothing you want to do. In the long run, people can't stand it. Really, it's so hard that you always have to pay some rewards."

Su Yonglin never agrees with this.

"If people who hold power do not understand self-restraint, it is a disaster. This position and power doom you to not be the same as normal people. It is precisely because I understand the difficulty of self-restraint that I set strict rules and regulations, and set an example and take the lead in restraining myself.

Over the years, I think my constraints on myself have been very successful. I don’t have anything you don’t have, neither of them. I don’t have concubines, land, commercial assets, and I won’t enjoy it extravagantly. I have done everything I said.”

Qiao Feng sighed.

"Of course you can do this. This rule is made by you. If you can't do it yourself, isn't it just a piece of waste paper?"

"Since I have done it, I am qualified to ask you to do it too. Besides, this is the original intention of our revolution. Isn't this a matter of course?"

Su Yonglin asked in confusion: "Do you want to go back to the past where people who hold power want to do whatever they want to do? Have you forgotten that you were once forced to go to the forefront by a group of people who do whatever they want? Have you forgotten the hatred in your heart at that time?"

"I haven't forgotten!"

Qiao Feng suddenly shouted like a cat with his tail stepped on: "I can still dream about what happened at that time when I dream now! I will never forget how those bastards bullied me in my life! Absolutely not!"

Su Yonglin spread her hands.

"So, why do you do something like this? What's the difference between you and them?"

"I...I...I...I didn't bully the people, I didn't act as a domineering force on them..."

Qiao Feng whispered with a constipated expression: "And, this is different, it's not said that, we... we... Chairman, you have something that we don't have."

"What?"

"that power."

"Do you have no power? Do you have no power in your position to hold power?"

Qiao Feng shook his head immediately.

"Yes, there are, but not that big. We are the oldest group of people who are the first to follow you to die. But until now, many people are still in middle-level positions, or slightly higher positions, and how many of the top-level positions are from our Jiangnan elderly?

A large part of them come from behind! Chairman! We, the elderly in Jiangnan, were born and died first with you. Many people had scars on their bodies with both hands. As a result, with a command, the young boys were all naked, leaving behind a group of elderly in Jiangnan.

What will the elderly think in their hearts? How will they view such things? After so many years of life and death, the revolution has been successful. They are not allowed to take concubines, purchase land, participate in business, give nothing, and have no position to pay, and have a group of young boys to take the lead. How can they not complain in their hearts?

You don’t want anything, but you are the supreme country. The words you say cannot cover up this fact. You are the supreme country. You can make people run away by waving your hand and opening your mouth. Isn’t this power more meaningful than any enjoyment?”

After hearing this, Su Yonglin was silent for a while.

Then he sighed deeply.

"You can say such words to prove that the revolution has not succeeded. You have said so much, but have you ever considered whether there is such a possibility that their actual abilities are only enough to the positions they are in and the abilities they need for higher positions that they cannot achieve?"

After Su Yonglin said that, Qiao Feng was stunned.

this……

"I knew a long time ago that selecting talents and capable is a difficult problem for the ages, so I care very much about the selection of officials and the allocation of positions. So after the court stabilized, I began to establish a talent assessment system to collect and evaluate talents from all majors needed by the court.

The Ministry of Personnel of the Court and the Organization Department of the Revival Association have special and detailed records, recording the work results and mistakes made by each official in office, so as to make a judgment to see if he can further improve his position or his abilities are limited to this.

If you can improve your position, then wait until your term expires and you can't continue to improve your position. If you reach the peak of your ability, you can transfer your position at the same level and no longer continue to rise. Even if you are promoted, you will only have honorary titles such as medals and no longer have to be promoted.

Compared with the talent assessment system of the previous dynasty, I asked the Organization Department and the Ministry of Personnel of the court to make corresponding changes in this regard, and to establish a set of promotion rules that do not look at qualifications and backgrounds as much as possible to maximize fairness to the public. You will not be unclear about this."

Qiao Feng lowered his head.

He did know that after working in the Organization Department for many years, he knew better than many people what kind of system Mingguo’s talent selection and promotion system is.

Based on the achievements and mistakes made by a person in his position, it can basically determine whether the person has the ability to be promoted, whether he has further or needs to be demoted, etc.

At the same time, he was also very clear that under the operation of this set of rules, there were indeed many young officials with good ability to make contributions and received due promotions. A large number of mediocre officials were also pushed to the spot without promotion, but were only transferred at the same level.

This is not unreasonable.
