"Sir, after passing the mountain in front of you, you will reach Zitong County."
The eagle pointed to the mountain peak at its feet and asked, "Sir, where should we go first?"
"Go to Qiqu Mountain to find Tie Shixin first!" Jin Feng replied.
Fang Lingjun and Liu Buqun were both great scholars. Jin Feng wanted to find them to teach his children, and also wanted to use their fame and prestige to attract more scholars to Jinchuan.
But this need is not very urgent. Xihewan Primary School can function normally without them.
But Tie Shixin is different.
He had served as an inspector of the Household Department and was very familiar with the work of the Household Department.
There are six departments in Dakang, namely the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Husbandry, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Punishment.
The personnel department is responsible for the transfer of officials, as well as the supervision of hundreds of officials.
The Ministry of Household Affairs is in charge of all financial matters such as land, household registration, taxation, officials' salaries, soldiers' food and wages, and local repairs.
The Ministry of War is in charge of the military and various war matters.
The Ministry of Industry is in charge of various construction projects across the country.
The Ministry of Rites is in charge of various ceremonies, sacrifices, imperial examinations and other related matters.
The Ministry of Punishment is responsible for the review and determination of laws and litigation-related matters. Under normal circumstances, when a person's death sentence is determined by local government agencies, the execution must be finalized and approved by an agency subordinate to the Ministry of Punishment.
The Ninth Princess has just ascended the throne, so the appointment and dismissal of officials are naturally in her own hands, so the staff department is dispensable.
As for the Ministry of War, it is enough to have Zhang Liang in charge of the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau and Liu Tie in charge of the Zhenyuan Army.
If the Ninth Princess arranges for someone else to serve as Minister of War, not to mention whether Jin Feng, Zhang Liang and Liu Tie will agree, the grassroots bodyguards and Zhenyuan soldiers will not be willing.
As for the Ministry of Industry, let alone that.
With Jin Feng and Zuo Zhiyuan here, the Ministry of Industry doesn't have to worry.
As for the Department of Rites, it was the department that Jin Feng paid least attention to.
In Jin Feng's view, the various sacrificial ceremonies in the feudal era were long and complicated, and had no practical significance. They could be used or not.
Therefore, what Xihewan is most lacking now is talents from the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Household Affairs.
For a newly established dynasty, these two departments are extremely important.
At this time, the kings are fighting each other and the world is in turmoil. The law must be used to frighten the treacherous people to prevent them from becoming monsters.
The Ministry of Household Affairs is in charge of household registration, land, and taxation across the country, which is even more important.
More than 80% of the memorials on Princess Ninth's desk are about this aspect.
If Tie Shixin can be persuaded to go to Xihewan, it will greatly reduce the work pressure of the Ninth Princess.
This is the talent Jin Feng urgently needs.
So Jin Feng decided to go to him first.
The airship flew along the Tongjiang River for half an hour and arrived above Qiqu Mountain.
The bodyguard who had been waiting nearby saw the airship and quickly fired a loud arrow into the air.
The eagle controlled the airship and landed on the threshing floor of a village.
This village is located at the fork of the river, and the terrain is similar to that of Xihewan. However, this village is obviously much poorer. There is only a small brick courtyard in the whole village, and the rest are thatched houses.
Moreover, most of the thatched houses are in dilapidated condition and look like they are about to collapse at any time.
"Zhenyuan Escort Bureau's Fifth Regiment, Third Battalion, Second Company, First Platoon Guzigou, report to sir!"
A bodyguard wearing black armor strode forward, straightened his back and saluted Jin Feng.
As the territory continues to expand, the Zhenyuan Escort Agency has expanded to five regiments.
Among them, the fifth regiment was only established a few months ago, and more than 80% of its members were new soldiers. Zhang Liang did not send them out to fight, but asked them to manage the soldiers in various places in Sichuan and Shu, and assist the Zhongming Group in dividing the territory.
"Zhong Ming Group 2 Mianzhou Branch Zitong Team Liang Youyu, report to sir!"
A man wearing the uniform of the Bell Group also stepped forward to salute.
In addition to intelligence, the main work of the Zhongming Group now is to divide areas and set up village branches and women's brigades in various places.
Liang Youyu is the leader of the Zhongming Group responsible for the land distribution work in Zitong County.
Knowing that Jin Feng was coming, Gu Zigou and Liang Youyu rushed over to protect Jin Feng and introduce the local situation.
Thanks to the publicity of the Jinchuan Song and Dance Troupe, Jin Feng's reputation among the people has reached a new height.
Many people worship Jin Feng.
Many of Liang Youyu and Gu Zigou's escorts and members of the Zhongming team were recruited from other places. This was the first time they met Jin Feng in person.
Influenced by the song and dance troupe, these people looked at Jin Feng with excitement and admiration in their eyes, just like fans seeing their dream idol.
Many people's chests could not suppress their rising and falling.
"Thank you for your hard work, everyone!" Jin Feng saw this and waved his hand behind.
"Seeking happiness for the people!"
The escorts and members of the bell team roared in unison.
This is also the slogan requested by Jin Feng.
When an organization is first established, it needs a cult of personality so that it can generate cohesion as quickly as possible.
But as the organization continues to expand, cult of personality alone will no longer suffice.
Because personality worship has many disadvantages, for example, when there are many soldiers and generals, personality worship can easily lead to factional fights and struggles for power.
At this time, the organization needs to have faith.
This belief is of course not a religious belief, but a belief in justice and the goals of the organization.
Seeking happiness for the people is the goal set by Jin Feng for the organization and also the slogan he formulated.
After greeting the escort, Jin Feng turned to look at Liang Youyu: "Where does Mr. Tie live?"
"The third to last house by the river is Mr. Tie's house."
Liang Youyu pointed to the village and said.
Most of the huts in the village are built along the river, making it easier to get water.
Jin Feng walked into the village along the dirt road and asked as he walked: "Have you visited Tie Shixin recently?"
"His Majesty sent a message to me to ask for Mr. Tie. I went to see him once, but I haven't been there since."
Liang Youyu replied: "By the way, I also looked for him several times when the land was divided."
Jin Feng nodded slightly and looked at Liang Youyu again.
He should be the person that Ninth Princess said was kicked out by Tie Shixin.
The airship was huge, and people in the village could see it from a distance.
However, they did not know what the airship was and did not dare to approach it. It was not until they saw people from the Zhongming Group and the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau following Jin Feng into the village that the villagers felt relieved and walked out of the yard one after another.
"Mr. Liang, what is that thing flying in the sky? Why is it so big?"
"Mr. Liang, when are you going to go out to build roads? I've been idle at home for more than half a month."
"Mr. Liang, who is this little brother next to you? He is so handsome. Have you gotten married yet?"
…
Liang Youyu once presided over the land distribution work in the village. The villagers all knew him and asked all kinds of questions.
The most frequently asked question is about who the airship and Jin Feng are.
Later, there were more and more people, directly blocking the narrow path.
"Everyone, please give way and don't delay Mr. Jin's business!"
Liang Youyu said helplessly.
"Which Mr. Jin?" a villager asked with a smile.
"Of course it's Mr. Jin, who is the current national advisor and stands shoulder to shoulder with the king!"
"Is that what the song and dance troupe said, asking Mr. Liang to give the land to our Mr. Jin?"
"Who else can there be except this Mr. Jin?" Liang Youyu said with his chest raised.⑧①ZW.????m
As soon as he finished speaking, the villager who asked the question knelt down with a thud.
Then, just like the contagion, other villagers behind him also knelt down.
A moment later, people were kneeling on the dirt road in front of them.
