Chapter 256 The ancient version of KPI performance appraisal helps Nanyang develop efficiently!
It's night.
A lamp is like a bean.
The table in front of Liu Bian was covered with the work plans of Xun Yu, Zao Zhi and others.
He is correcting the content and making rationalization suggestions in accordance with the recommendations of the Military Advisor Alliance.
While correcting, Liu Bian complained: "If an emperor does this kind of thing all day long, wouldn't he be exhausted to death? No wonder many emperors don't live long, it's such a cheat."
"Master Ben, don't worry."
The voice of the Military Advisor Alliance followed: "The main reason why you are so tired now is that you do not have an effective organizational management system, and Xun He, Zao Zhi and others have not been accustomed to your management model."
"Don't worry, everything is difficult at the beginning. As long as they all learn this management system, Master Bian's tasks will become easier and easier in the future."
Liu Bian naturally understood the meaning of the Military Advisor Alliance, but he still had his own doubts: "Teacher, can this modern enterprise performance appraisal method be used under the ancient model?"
The Military Advisor Alliance said softly: "Master Bian, do you think there was no KPI assessment in the ancient court?"
Liu Bian was stunned: "Ah? Is it possible? Is it true?"
"certainly!"
The Alliance of Military Advisors said with great certainty: "In fact, in ancient my country, there was a systematic evaluation system for officials, and class examinations were the most important performance evaluation."
"The so-called examination class has two meanings:"
The Military Advisor Alliance immediately gave an explanation: "The first is the test, which is to test the specific performance of officials at all levels from the central government to the local government in executing state laws during their tenure;"
"The second is lessons. In short, it means supervising lessons according to the imperial court's administrative plan!"
"According to "Shang Shu Shun Dian" records: Shun once proposed three years of performance appraisal, and after three examinations, he deposed Zhi Youming and promoted Xianxi to the concubine."
"It is recorded in the Qin Dynasty's "The Way of Being an Official" that the assessment of officials is mainly through the upper plan. The upper plan is the annual assessment. Local officials at all levels report their government achievements for the current year step by step."
"This system requires local officials to write down the figures on household registration, land reclamation, taxation, etc. within their jurisdiction at the end of the year on wooden slips, compile them into a book, report them to the court, and accept assessments. The emperor will reward them based on their merits.
, or give punishment.”
"In addition, the imperial court will also conduct inspections and supervision through the censor, and will promote, demote, reward and punish officials based on the results of assessments and inspections."
"In the Tang Dynasty..."
"besides......"
"In short, there are too many to mention. This is similar to the modern enterprise KPI assessment system, or even worse."
hiss-!
Liu Bian was frightened when he heard this.
He really couldn't believe that ancient people were so smart: "I've been taught!"
The Military Advisor Alliance continued: "So, Mr. Bian can rest assured that the KPI assessment system formulated by experts for you should be acceptable to the ancients, and ours is more perfect."
"The most important thing is that Ben Ye's new dynasty is currently small in scale, and the area it really controls is only a radius of 140 miles. Implementing this strategy can be regarded as a kind of screening of officials."
"In terms of management, pilot projects should be carried out first and then be gradually promoted! In a sense, Wan County, a land with a radius of 140 miles, is the pilot project of Bian Ye's new dynasty. Only if it works here can it be gradually promoted in the future.
.”
"Master Ben."
The Military Advisor Alliance finally emphasized: "We are currently in the foundation stage. Only by laying a solid foundation will the next road be smoother and smoother. So don't be afraid of getting tired, just get through it."
"kindness."
The fire in Liu Bian's heart was once again ignited by the alliance of military advisors.
He stretched his muscles and continued to work late into the night and review the progress management sheet.
"Master Bian, judging from the progress management table sent by Xun You and others, Xi Zhicai's work is the most detailed, comprehensive and must have been carefully considered. Xun You's work has the highest overall quality, while Zao Zhi's work is relatively poor."
"Experts have made a special list of Zao Zhi's problems. We will slowly train him. The fact that this person can leave his name in history is enough to prove his ability. There is no need to worry about this."
"Okay! I will emphasize it emphatically, don't worry, teacher."
"Come on Mr. Ben, you must resist."
"Don't worry!"
"..."
The figure of Liu Bian burning the midnight oil and fighting at night also aroused heated discussion in the live broadcast room:
"The new dynasty will have a new atmosphere, Mr. Ben, please work hard."
"Nah! I have never been so tired in the college entrance examination."
"What is the college entrance examination? At least it has standard answers. How can it be compared with this?"
"Yes, the establishment of the imperial management system is very, very important."
"If the emperor works so hard, what qualifications do I have to beep blindly!"
"I'm stimulated. I'm really stimulated. I want to study."
"Struggle.jpg"
"+1"
"+2"
"+10086"
"..."
The next day, early morning.
The rooster crows the dawn and the morning glow fills the sky.
Prefect's Mansion.
Xun You, Xi Xian and Zao Zhi walked towards the study together.
Zao Zhi rubbed his sparse eyes: "Wenruo, Zhicai, do you know? Yesterday, in order to make a good farming progress plan, I personally visited more than ten farmers. I was really exhausted."
"His Royal Highness must not be able to find fault with yesterday's final version of the farming progress plan. I really don't believe it. Could it be that His Highness, with his wealth of gold, has personally carried a hoe?"
Xun You nodded and said with a smile: "Zijing's attitude towards work is indeed worth learning from. I believe that His Highness will definitely praise you today."
"yes."
Xi Zhicai took a deep breath and exhaled slowly: "I have shouldered the hoe myself, but I can't make such a thorough plan as Brother Zijing, and it's impossible for Your Highness to find fault with it."
"Let's go."
Xi Zhicai waved his hand: "Let's go to the study quickly. After finalizing the plan today, we will collect the land and start work thoroughly. We must not let King Hongnong down."
Xun He and Zao Zhi nodded in unison: "Well, don't worry."
Walk through the corridor and through the courtyard.
finally.
Arrived at the study room.
Squeak—!
The door was pushed open, and a meter of sunlight shone into the room.
But see...
King Hongnong was making comments with a pen, sitting upright, the oil lamp beside him was slightly lit, and the bamboo slips were piled scatteredly on the eucalyptus table, obviously he had been working for a long time.
No!
wrong!
Xun or suddenly realized.
It’s not that King Hongnong has been working for a long time, it’s that he hasn’t stopped since yesterday.
The three of them wanted to get up early to finalize the plan early and give King Hongnong a good impression.
But I never thought...
King Hongnong worked much harder than them.
At this moment, the three of them subconsciously walked up to the palace and said with sincerity and fear: "Xun or (Xixian, Zaozhi), pay homage to Your Highness."
Liu Bian did not raise his head, but continued to write: "Don't be stunned, hurry up and work. I have ordered the food supervisor Wang to prepare breakfast. We will eat here later. We will try to complete all the preparations today."
Done."
The three people hurriedly bowed: "Here."
Immediately.
Everyone returns to their respective positions and devotes themselves to their work.
After Liu Bian finished reviewing, he took a long breath, put his pen aside, raised his eyes and looked at Zao Zhi: "Zijing, come here."
Zao Zhi stood up, walked around the table, and hurried forward: "I wonder, Your Highness, what can you give me?"
"Zijing, I carefully checked the farming progress management table you reported yesterday. The use of labor force is not reasonable enough and there are problems with the connection between processes."
"Although this schedule has made a lot of progress compared to the previous one, it is only about process arrangement at best. You have to consider many aspects such as people, machines, materials, methods, environment, etc."
"For example, you haven't considered the labor force..."
"..."
"This is Gu's correction. You need to study more. If you don't understand, come and ask. We don't have much preparation time before formal farming."
"..."
Barabara.
Liu Bian revised and commented on the farming plan proposed by Zao Zhi according to the efficient and scientific management methods explained by experts, and put forward more rational opinions.
Zao Zhi was a little disdainful at first. After all, King Hongnong was a prince, so how could he understand things in the farmland? He always felt that King Hongnong must be giving blind orders.
But......
After Zao Zhi carefully read the correction comments of King Hongnong, he was immediately shocked and astonished. Especially after carefully sorting it out, he understood the horror of King Hongnong better.
Not only does it have absolutely rigorous thinking in arranging each process in farming, it can even make advance preparations based on the labor force, the number of farm tools, cattle, farmland, and even the city planning that has just been arranged.
The farming plan submitted by Zao Zhi was rejected six times in one day. Each time there were new problems, but every time Zao Zhi gained new insights.
"Been taught a lesson."
Zao Zhi bowed his head and sighed from the bottom of his heart.
He had a real feeling.
As if...
King Hongnong seemed to be guiding him from a higher level. The meticulousness and rigor of his thoughts were far beyond his reach.
"Oh right."
After Zao Zhi retired, Liu Bian suddenly remembered the expert's KPI assessment system, and his eyes immediately swept over Xun or others: "Farming is the focus of our work next. It is difficult to achieve perfection based on the current number of officials alone."
"Therefore, we must find ways to increase the enthusiasm of ordinary people for farming and the enthusiasm of officials at all levels for work. Only in this way can we utilize as many resources as possible within a limited time."
"That's how I think about it."
At that moment, Liu Bian briefly explained his work ideas to everyone: "We can sign a production task responsibility letter, and the Shangshutai will issue this year's work tasks, refine the tasks, and add rewards and punishments assessment regulations."
"For example, Wen Ruo detailed this responsibility letter and agreed that as long as he completes the specified tasks within the specified time, his salary for the year can be increased by one thousand dan. If he fails to complete it, he will be demoted or dismissed."
"Zijing!"
At this point, Liu Bian turned his eyes to Zao Zhi and said softly: "After you receive this production task responsibility letter, you need to continue to refine it according to the content of the responsibility letter, and then hand it over to your next level, and agree on an increase in the year-end salary.
To eight hundred stones."
"In this way, the mission statement is passed down from the prefecture to the county and township, and finally to the pavilions and villages, and even the enthusiasm of the stingy men and tourists is mobilized."
"This is a vertical management system, and officials at all levels must play their roles. The Guhui will set up an additional assessment team to conduct assessments on a monthly basis according to the plans reported by them."
"Officials who fail the assessment twice or three times in a row will be demoted or dismissed. Those with excellent performance in the assessment will be given salary rewards and given priority for promotion."
"Since we are a new dynasty, we must not follow the old path. We must have a new attitude and new management measures, so that the officials in the Hanting of Chang'an who have nothing to do can take a look at our capabilities."
This is a modern enterprise management method that can effectively mobilize the production enthusiasm of officials at all levels and efficiently complete the annual production goals.
Of course, this kind of management method is completely impossible to implement in other states and counties. After all, your officials cannot go deep into the grassroots level.
but......
Liu Bian has now obtained all the resources of the Kong family, as well as part of the land resources of the Deng family, Yin family, Feng family, Li family, etc. In a sense, he has the means of production in his own hands and is the master of his own country.
Although the income model is still in the form of rent and tax, it is fundamentally different from the imperial court, which only collects rent and does not work. The big landlord class will not easily send the grain collected.
Moreover, most of the officials in the new dynasty were newcomers. Even Xun Yu, Xi Xian, Zao Zhi and others had never served as high officials in the Luoyang court. Such officials were very malleable.
Whatever you make him look like, that's what he will become.
Officials who can adapt to this management system can stay. Officials who cannot adapt to this management system can leave. There is nothing to say.
Anyway, the area currently under Liu Bian's control is no more than 140 miles in radius at best. The ship is small and easy to control, and it is easier to cultivate a group of officials with a temper towards him.
In this way, when the territory expands in the future and these officials have gained practical experience, they can continue to rush to the next battlefield with the same management style and train more officials for Liu Bian to achieve a virtuous cycle.
"What do you think?"
Liu Bian glanced at Xun or the others and asked tentatively.
"this......"
Everyone, look at me, and I'll look at you.
finally.
It was Xun Or who was the first to speak: "Your Highness, this method will indeed help to improve the enthusiasm of the people, but if it is promoted on a large scale, it is still unknown whether we will have enough resources to reward it."
"Don't worry."
Liu Bian was certain and affirmative: "Based on the Kong family materials reported by Tang Xiang, even if officials at all levels can complete various task indicators, it is enough to reward them."
"As for next year?"
Liu Bian smiled calmly and exhaled: "When we collect all the food, we can naturally solve it!"
Xunor paused and nodded slowly: "Since His Highness has already thought about it, I agree that appropriate reward and punishment measures will be beneficial to the current situation."
Xi Xian was originally an extremely serious person and hated subordinates who couldn't keep up with him. Naturally, he agreed even more: "My subordinates agree to take exams like this."
Seeing that both of them agreed, Zao Zhi didn't dare to object, so he could only hand over his hand and said, "I second the proposal."
"good!"
Liu Bian nodded with satisfaction, and immediately took out a few bamboo slips from the table: "Zhicai, these are some opinions I wrote randomly based on my ideas. After you summarize them, add your own ideas, and make a set of exams.
"
Xi Xian bowed: "Here."
Immediately.
He quickly stepped forward and took the bamboo slip.
Liu Bian added: "Finish it as soon as possible."
Xi Xian nodded: "Your Highness, don't worry."
"Your Highness."
At this moment, a voice sounded outside the hall.
Liu Bian raised his eyes and looked.
But seeing the palace door creaking open, Zhu Tong stepped in, bowed and handed over his hands: "According to His Highness's instructions, breakfast has been prepared. It is mutton soup. I wonder if Your Highness would like to enjoy it now or later?"
"Of course it's now."
Liu Bian was indeed a little hungry. He took a deep breath and said softly: "How can we let everyone work hungry? Let's pass on the food."
Zhu Tong nodded: "Here."
Not long after.
Breakfast is ready.
Liu Bian and others chatted while eating.
From the recent development of the situation in Nanyang to external relations, every detail has not been left out.
This is not only Liu Bian's way of understanding the current situation, but also a way for the Military Advisor Alliance to collect information.
after all......
Today's situation is completely different from that in history.
Every move of the Han court in Chang'an will change the world.
The military-strategist alliance must grasp the dynamics in order to control the world in a timely and effective manner and put forward suggestions and countermeasures.
"Now, Yuan Shu has raised his troops and attacked Yingchuan in two groups."
"All the way is Ji Ling, mainly attacking Lin County, with about 10,000 troops."
"Zhang Xun is on the way, mainly attacking Xinji, with about 8,000 troops."
"..."
"Although, there are currently only more than 10,000 people under Captain Cao's command, and they are scattered in various counties. The troops and horses in Xinji and Lin County alone are simply not enough to compete with Yuan Shu."
"but......"
Xun You thought for a moment and said softly: "We all agree that this is just an illusion deliberately arranged by Captain Cao. Since he dared to send all the assassins' heads back to Pingyu, he must have had countermeasures in place."
"I think it won't be long before good news comes from the direction of Yingchuan. This will be the best gift for His Highness when he ascends the throne. It will also effectively fight back against Dong Zhuo and enhance the military might of our new dynasty."
Liu Bian never doubted Cao Cao: "Well, I believe Meng De can do it!"
"Oh right."
At this moment, Xun You suddenly remembered something important. He quickly put down his spoon and turned to Liu Bian: "Your Highness, the Nanyang gentry has basically been finalized. Can we announce the marriage?"
"Recovering the resources earlier will be of great benefit to our subsequent work, not to mention that His Highness will ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor in three days, so it will be difficult to go on a killing spree at that time."
Liu Bian nodded: "Since the Nanyang nobles have decided to cut off their arms to survive, we don't have to wait any longer. Let's order Xu Zhuan to get married as we have negotiated in advance."
"Your Highness, don't worry."
Xun You leaned over and cupped his hands and said, "I guarantee there will be no problem."
Liu Bian nodded: "You can do things without worrying about being alone."
*****
Noon.
The sun is blazing.
Xu Qiu and Yu Fan came to Deng's house in Wancheng with their troops.
Yu Fantou wasted no time and directly led his troops to surround the Deng family.
Xu Qiu stood at the door of Deng's house, shouted sternly at the top of his voice: "The Deng family in Wancheng has been in Wan County for many years. The crimes they have committed are too numerous to list. Here are the following:"
"One: Xiang helped rebel against Kong Ben with forty-two war horses. According to Han law, he is guilty of conspiracy;"
"Second: Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, weapons have been hidden in the mansion..."
"..."
Xu Qiu listed the evidence of the Deng family's crimes very clearly, paragraph by paragraph.
In fact, every crime in it has corresponding evidence.
Some of the charges were even supported by more than one piece of evidence, and the content was so comprehensive that it was simply astonishing.
The people around were all stunned, with horrified expressions on their faces:
"I really can't believe that Deng Hui ignored the court's laws so much."
"Kong Ben was his son-in-law. Deng Hui is really blind."
"It is inevitable that such a stupid son-in-law will suffer such a disaster."
"I really don't know if it will implicate the Xinye Deng family."
"I guess so. After all, it's a rebellion."
"Well, I feel so too."
"Nanyang is changing!"
"..."
Amidst the sighs of the onlookers.
Xu Qiu's voice suddenly changed and he announced loudly: "But considering that during the campaign against Dong, the Deng family provided 10,000 dan of grain, which was quite a feat. The process was relatively cooperative, and the three Yi tribes were spared the crime, and only one of them was punished."
"All officers and men obey orders."
Xu Qiu closed the bamboo slip and ordered loudly: "Let me attack the Deng family."
All the soldiers immediately shouted: "Kill -!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
A dense wave of arrows suddenly rose into the sky, gathered in the air, and then poured down like a downpour toward the closed door of Deng's house.
In an instant, wails, roars, and shouts were like thunder, exploding in the courtyard, perfectly intertwined, like a hymn to purgatory, playing across heaven and earth.
After just two waves of arrows, the sound in the courtyard dropped sharply.
Xu Xuan didn't want to waste time, so he waved his hand and ordered a charge.
The soldiers broke down the door with their swords, and Wu Yangyang broke in and started killing.
As if in just a moment, the Deng family in Wancheng was already piled with corpses and rivers of blood.
Deng Hui was killed!
More than 40 people in his direct lineage were all given the title of first officer.
As for the central part of his government, nearly a hundred people died, and more than 20 servants died.
Only those who laid down their weapons from the beginning were spared death in the end.
In addition, those who can survive are just servants or tenants, and there is no threat.
As Xu Qiu, who climbed out of the mountain of corpses and sea of blood, he did a pretty good job of eradicating the weeds and root causes.
In just half an hour, the entire Deng family in Wancheng was slaughtered.
Xu Xuan immediately sent people to search for the accounts and send them to the prefect's mansion as quickly as possible.
At the same time, some officials were left to inventory the property of the Deng family.
Yin family!
Feng family!
Li family!
...
Everyone involved in the interception and killing of King Hongnong was killed without exception.
From noon when the sun was high in the sky, to evening when the sun was setting and melting gold.
In just half a day, Wancheng was bleeding, and the corpses were piled up into a hill. They were transported away in batches by horse-drawn carriages and buried in the hills outside the city.
The people in Wancheng were shocked and talked a lot:
"I didn't expect that they would dare to intercept and kill King Hongnong."
"What King Hongnong? He will be crowned emperor in two days."
"I heard that this imperial seal was awarded to King Hongnong by heaven."
"Ah? Doesn't this mean that they are intercepting and killing the emperor?"
"Isn't that right! King Hongnong doesn't have the three Yi tribes, so he is already showing mercy outside the law."
"According to what you said, it seems true. The Kong family is just the Yi tribe!"
"I never thought that the Confucius family would actually rebel!"
"..."
