Chapter Forty-Three: Resignation(1/2)
Kang Jiaoyu took Zhang Luo and Zhang Changwei out of the county school.
Directly bypass the Chenghuang Temple.
Walk towards the county government office in the middle of the main road.
Just walked a few steps from the county school.
A few people saw crowds and carriages crowding in front of the Chenghuang Temple.
Today is the day when the new prefect officially takes office.
You need to go to the Chenghuang Temple in the county to offer sacrifices.
Many people and wealthy households in the county were watching outside.
Kang Jiaoyu was an official without rank in the county.
Most of the petty officials punished in recent years were those who had no money to hire carriages.
Daily work is the same as ordinary people.
Mainly walking.
Zhang Luo saw a patch on Kang Jiaoyu's official uniform.
I know that this "Kang Rockery" lives a clean life on weekdays.
Being a person can do this.
Zhang Luo felt sincere admiration.
The vertical Facebook clerk that I met Zhang Luo in Houshan Fighting before.
The clothes on my body are all brand new.
There is also a silver bracelet on his hand.
As for the county's teachings, they are worthless.
Although the county's educational edicts are not popular in officialdom.
But it's still much better than being a scribe.
At least he is also the person in charge of the government.
Salaries from the imperial court are distributed every month.
Logically speaking, the scribes in the county government would not be able to get a meal from the imperial court.
Kang Jiaoyu walked in front.
Zhang Luo followed one step behind.
Zhang Changwei was far behind.
He knew he had no literary talent.
I don’t want to interfere with the communication between readers.
Several people passed by the bustling Chenghuang Temple.
Zhang Luo asked Kang Jiaoyu doubtfully from behind:
"Master Jiaoyu, today is the day when the newly appointed prefect will pay homage to the City God Temple."
"Why don't you go with the civil servants?"
Kang Jiaoyu did not look back, but said slowly:
"I'm just an edict, the magistrate is not offering sacrifices to the Confucian Temple."
"You don't need me to accompany you."
Zhang Luo was speechless.
I just felt that Kang Jiaoyu, who had just entered the official career, was too cold-tempered.
Usually a new chief officer takes office.
County officials would rush to accompany him.
I hope I can leave a good impression on the new prefect.
Kang Jiaoyu belongs to the chief education officer of a county.
Even if he has no rank, he can still be regarded as an official of the imperial court.
You should also accompany the prefect to participate in the sacrificial ceremony.
The distinction between officials and local staff in the Ming Dynasty was very strict.
According to the statement in "Da Ming Huidian".
Most petty officials do not receive official treatment.
These are the little officials who usually rely on rewards to make a living.
Only non-officials working in the county government are counted.
The county magistrate is responsible for recruitment.
There are also county magistrates who come to support them.
Help with some trivial matters in the county government.
Of course, as time progresses.
Although the government officials do not receive salary.
But it also gradually developed a default scale.
The petty officials also get a small amount of money from the government office every month.
If there is really not a penny left in the yamen.
The petty officials will also use special methods at their disposal.
Go to the county and get your salary for yourself.
Kang Jiao's edict belongs to the officials.
Compared to petty officials, they are like heaven and earth.
This is also one of the benefits of passing the Juren Examination.
Today all the petty officials in the county want to go to the Chenghuang Temple.
Show your face in front of the new prefect.
But because he is not an official.
Unable to enter the sacrificial ceremony.
But Kang Jiaoyu, the official, did not want to seize the opportunity.
I won’t go if I don’t want to.
Although it was in the late Ming Dynasty.
The status of being a juren is becoming less and less valuable.
But during the Jiajing Dynasty.
He has repeatedly called on people from all over the world to serve as officials.
As long as Juren has an idea.
An unqualified academic officer can still be easily obtained.
After leaving the Chenghuang Temple a few hundred steps away.
There were finally fewer people around.
Kang Jiao asked Zhang Luo:
"The county examination ended a few months ago."
"You came here today because you want to apply for next year's county examination."
