Chang Suining walked into the Governor's Mansion surrounded by officials, sat down in the front hall, and was immediately brought tea by an official.
When Chang Suining picked up the cup of tea, a group of officials below, led by Shi, the Governor of the Prefecture, began to report their official names according to their positions.
The current chief historian, whose surname is Wang, has a short beard and is in his early forties. He was just transferred by the capital's official department.
Previously, Xu Zhengye massacred many Jiangdu officials, which left many positions vacant. Many of the officials present now were like Wang Changshi, who had been transferred temporarily or had just been promoted from below.
But in any case, it is not the first day for them to become officials. With their solid resume and experience here, it is only a matter of time before they become familiar with the official duties at hand.
On the contrary, it is the new governor...
Even if we don’t mention the status of our daughter’s family, they are all wearing this robe and sitting in this position. It is meaningless to mention it any more - but regardless of the distinction between men and women, she did not enter the official career through a formal route;
He is also really too young.
It is no exaggeration to say that many of them have been officials for much longer than she is!
Seventeen years old, they randomly named three or five people, and randomly slipped out a few fractions of their age through their fingers, and it was more than that...
And it is said that he spent the first sixteen years in a boudoir, and it was only this year that he came out to see the world... Moreover, the world was all on the battlefield and in the military camp.
They said she could fight, and they had no problem with it. After all, her military exploits were there, and there was a saying about natural talents in this world. Although they were rare items, one could count just a few over thousands of years.
But fighting a war is different from managing a country's internal affairs.
When it comes to fighting, you can just cut with a sword, and being able to kill someone is considered a skill; but when it comes to managing local internal affairs, it is really cumbersome. Without the accumulation of experience and qualifications, let alone whether you can handle it.
I’m afraid it’s difficult to even understand!
This is why the selection and promotion system for civil servants is ten times more stringent than that for military officials.
The position of governor of a state is also in charge of local military affairs. Although he is not a civil official in the true sense, he must not be a pure and immature warrior.
It is because the world is in chaos... that such absurd and unruly things happen.
Some officials quietly looked at the girl at the head, and saw that she was just sitting there drinking tea. They didn't know whether she was listening to them, or she didn't understand them at all, and couldn't distinguish their duties——
Many officials sighed and felt sad in their hearts, and some were dissatisfied, or they stood there watching the situation, watching with cold eyes, and just regarded it as a joke.
Rather than being officials, they were more like playing house with a willful and arrogant child.
Speaking of which, as soon as I got off my horse, I started playing with firecrackers... What is this if not the nature of a child? Five years old, no more!
Anyway, they had discussed it secretly. The governor was going to fight the Japanese pirates in the near future. They didn't expect her to manage any internal affairs. Today was just a formality to welcome him to take office.
Just coax the children, coax them out of the house, out of sight and out of mind, then close the door and discuss business.
All the officials had similar thoughts at the moment. When the last person announced his resignation, some officials were ready to resign and leave.
Just when she was about to raise her hand to salute, there was a soft clinking sound, and the governor, who was sitting leisurely, finally put down the empty tea cup in her hand.
"Where are the three judges, Cang Cao, Tian Cao and Fa Cao?" She looked at the crowd and asked.
There was a brief silence.
Wang Changshi replied: "Returning to the Governor...the posts of the three Cao judges are still vacant."
Therefore, in the introduction of official positions just now, these three judges were missing.
There are seven military officers in Yangzhou, namely, Gong, Cang, Hu, Tian, Bing, Judiciary, and Shi, who are responsible for the affairs of a state respectively. They are all officials of the seventh rank.
She could see the girl above her nodding in understanding, and some officials exchanged glances with each other, so she listened to everything and knew which officials were missing.
Of course, being familiar with various official positions is the most basic thing, but when it comes to a "child", it will still surprise people.
Wang Changshi said: "Yangzhou has just experienced a disaster of war...but don't worry, Lord Governor, the vacant posts everywhere will be filled one after another."
Chang Suining asked: "Wang Changshi's method of filling vacancies is to wait for the officials to allocate and assign them one after another?"
Wang Changshi hesitated for a moment and then responded: "...Yes."
"It's too slow." Chang Suining said: "Not to mention that it is so time-consuming, and Yangzhou is in urgent need of hiring people, so it can't afford to delay. Simply speaking, such a long selection process is not in vain for high-ranking officials and dignitaries to operate relationships.
, is there any chance for Cypriots to come here to seek personal gain?”
There was silence again... Can this be said directly?
Wang Changshi asked carefully: "In the opinion of the governor..."
Chang Suining asked quietly: "I remember that for the position of governor, one has the right to make recommendations, right?"
Wang Changshi: "Yes... the governor can recommend talents to serve under his rule. However, if you want to appoint people with formal grades of ninth grade or above, you still need to get approval from the Ministry of Personnel."
Chang Suining nodded: "In this case, I will elect myself and then submit it to the Ministry of Civil Affairs for approval."
Some officials below began to whisper.
Although they all have to go through the Ministry of Personnel, as long as there are no special circumstances, the Ministry of Personnel will not deliberately create difficulties for those who are personally recommended by the governors of various states.
The governor...is he planning to replace all of them with his own people?
When everyone had different thoughts, they only heard that clear voice saying: "Nowadays, the imperial court is busy with affairs and there is a shortage of talents everywhere. Instead of reaching out to the imperial court to discuss talents that are not abundant, it is better for us to discover and select them ourselves——
"
The young governor said to them: "Tomorrow, I will ask people to list the conditions and first advertise for talents in Jiangdu City."
Everyone was startled when they heard this, so they posted a list to seek talents?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Immediately afterwards, I heard the voice say: "Anyone who meets the conditions, you can also recommend as much as possible. As long as they are available, after a unified assessment, I will
Will keep it."
After saying this, the expressions of most officials changed.
Can they also recommend it?
Chang Suining naturally knew that if she did this, she would definitely give these people a chance to seize the enemy, but it was also a seclusion. Instead of letting those invisible people in the capital come to seize the enemy, why not sell a favor to the officials in front of her?
She wants these people to work hard, win people's hearts, and distribute benefits appropriately, which is always the most practical sincerity.
Jiangdu is now covered in wounds. She must first twist these officials into a tightrope. They can use this land as their power field, but first they must heal it.
Of course, there must be people from other camps among these people, and there is even a lack of His Majesty's eyes and ears. But with the changing situation, who can say for sure, they will not become melons in her basket in the future.
?
It doesn't matter if it doesn't become her melon. Now that it grows on her territory, if it is really disobedient and grows sharp thorns that can harm the people, she can just chop it off and pull it out on a good and auspicious day.
And after the talents recommended by them are screened, she will personally review them, and she will have a good balance between them.
Seeing that the atmosphere was naturally coming to life, Chang Sui Ningcai continued: "Special times require special management strategies. Nowadays, Yangzhou is flourishing with all kinds of wastes, and talents should be selected in an eclectic way. Jiangdu must not be harmed by the hands of Japanese pirates.
Nor can it be destroyed by internal affairs."
Everyone looked over and saw that the girl's voice was clear and powerful. There was no immature look in her eyes or brows as she spoke. Perhaps because of the natural majesty in her official robe, she looked like someone who had lived in the officialdom of a temple for a long time.
Some officials unconsciously put away their contempt.
Some people still think that she is naive and easy to fool, and following her words just now, "You can also recommend as many people as possible," they have begun to think about who to recommend.
But Chang Suining didn't intend to let him go. What he just said was like throwing a hot and tempting piece of pie on the table to warm up the place before he started to get down to business——
Some officials noticed that the "female historian" next to the governor had begun to spread paper and grind it.
Next, the governor discussed the current situation of city defense, grain fields, merchants in the city, and the plans for the refugees to move back, etc...
She clearly positioned each of them according to the job title of the question, first asked and answered, then brainstormed, and then assigned tasks, all in one go.
These matters are extremely complicated, but the girl sitting at the top is always very organized.
Of course, there will be things that she does not understand about the details of local government affairs, but she will frankly explain her lack of understanding, and after their explanations and reminders, she will be able to quickly understand and integrate them.
No feeling of being stuck.
From the beginning to the end, she never said any threatening words, nor did she deliberately show any dignity as a military commander. She just sat there and seriously discussed with them about the assignment of errands... But these alone were enough to shock people.
Everyone was shocked. After most of the day, almost no one looked down on that girl anymore.
Yes... they have been here for most of the day!
I originally planned to greet the new governor and then leave, but unexpectedly I couldn’t leave...
At first, they treated the new governor with a wait-and-see attitude, but now... they seem to have become students who are being tested by their teacher!
Before coming, they had imagined many possibilities, but they never expected such a situation!
There were servants who brought tea and food. The governor was afraid that they would be sleepy after the meal, so he had someone bring them cold well water for them to wash their faces and wake up... Some people even suspected that if they dared to do it again,
If you show a sleepy look, the other party may not be able to do something bad like hanging a beam on your head and stabbing your buttocks!
Chang Suining's idea is very simple: "I've come here today. If I take care of myself more at a time, I can save myself a few trips. After all, your legs and feet are also legs and feet."
——Is this the reason why she used them all at once to die?!
All the officials suppressed their anger at being treated as donkeys. After all, there was still "cake" on the table... In order to recommend close friends in the future, they just treated themselves as donkeys this time... They were inappropriate, and some people wanted to be!
In this way, it was not until the end of Shen Shi that Chang Sui Ning finally let him go.
When everyone left, they all had a meeting gift in their hands, weighing several kilograms each - all official drafts that had been roughly compiled on the spot.
These are tangible, but there are many that are intangible. Regardless of their official position, Chang Suining asked them to write an article each with their opinions and strategies on the topic of "How to rebuild Yangzhou faster and better", and many of them came up with it.
It's three thousand words and will be handed over to her in five days at the latest.
The officials dragged their tired bodies and hoarse voices back home, and the family members who were waiting anxiously at home breathed a sigh of relief - no one had returned for a long time, and they heard that the new governor was someone not to be trifled with... I originally thought
People can’t come back!
…
Chang Sui Ning was also very tired. After leaving the front hall, she stretched and then, accompanied by Wang Changshi, got familiar with the governor's mansion.
The Governor's Mansion is divided into two parts: the front is used for official business, and the inner courtyard at the back is where the residence is.
When he came to the moon cave door leading to the inner courtyard, Chang Suining said with a smile: "Wang Changshi, please stop. Changshi is also tired today, so he should go back and rest early. It's our first run-in. If I have any inappropriate words or deeds, please forgive me."
I’ll forgive you, Chang Shi.”
Wang Changshi smiled and shook his head, with a hint of relief in his eyes: "No, the governor has done a good job..."
It's just this grinding, it's a bit laborious... It just burns out the flames.
Seeing Wang Changshi's demeanor and thinking of his many performances today, Chang Sui Ning tapped his fingers behind his back and tried to say: "Speaking of which, I made a presumptuous remark. I don't know whether to ask it or not -"
Wang Changshi said with a smile: "My lord, just ask."
Under the setting sun, the girl in front of the moon cave door looked curious: "I wonder who Wang Changshi belongs to?"
Wang Changshi smiled... It was indeed quite presumptuous.
He paused, but then asked: "What do you think, sir?"
He didn't have anyone else with him. Chang Sui Ning only had Yao Ran by his side, so he could "speak freely".
"After all, Chang Shi was transferred from the capital, and he holds such an important position as the governor of the governor's office. It is expected that he has to hold many positions. He not only wants to share my power, but also monitors my every move-" Chang Sui Ning said: "I think so.
He should be your Majesty’s man.”
Wang Changshi laughed and stroked his short beard: "Exactly...it should be."
Chang Suining blinked: "But Chang Shi makes me feel that it's not just——"
Wang Changshi did not comment, just smiled and took out a letter from his sleeve, handed it to Chang Sui Ning, bowed and left.
After he left, Chang Suining opened the letter.
On the huge piece of letter paper, there is no signature, only one word - [Humph]
Chang Suining: "...!"
Yao Ran was stunned for a moment: "...?"
She didn't want to take a look, but the single character was really conspicuous...she saw it at a glance!
"General... what is this?" Yao Ran couldn't help asking in confusion.
Chang Sui Ning was silent for a moment, covering his face with the letter wordlessly for a moment. When he put it down again, he turned around and left, and then replied: "...he is one of my teachers."
