The news of Di Renjie becoming the Prime Minister of the Qian Kingdom spread throughout the country overnight. Countless people and scholars were shocked by his fortuitous encounter and were jealous of his luck.
The addition of Di Renjie had greatly increased the Qian Country's soft power. At least, when Qin Yin looked at the attribute version, he realized that the country's reputation and politics had increased a little.
The next day, Di Renjie officially took office.
As the Prime Minister, Qin Yin had given him a large manor and many servants and maids. However, these were not the most important things. The most important thing was that Qin Yin had directly given him the Prime Minister's official seal, official robes, and so on.
Early in the morning, he went to court in his official robe.
When he arrived at the empty throne room and saw that only Qin Yin and Li Lianying were in the court, Di Renjie smiled. That wasn't a mocking smile, but excitement and anticipation. Today, he had actually become the prime minister of a dynasty. Although the Qian Country was weak, he would be able to achieve great things sooner or later.
"Greetings, Monarch!" Di Renjie knelt down and shouted.
"No need to be polite!" Qin Yin said," I asked you to come here today to recruit talents. The Qian Kingdom is weak and the royal court is empty. Today, we have to recruit talents. Otherwise, we won't be able to govern these ten counties."”
"Ruler, you're right!" Di Renjie chuckled and said," Actually, I have been secretly observing the monarchs of the various countries since I traveled all over the world. However, I found that most of them are not the rulers. I did not expect that I would meet the wise ruler after my reckless probing yesterday." Although the Qian Country is small, it has endless potential. I am willing to use my entire life to help the monarch achieve eternal hegemony!”
"Ding!" The system's AI prompted," Congratulations, Master. The historical minister Di Renjie has officially surrendered. His loyalty is 100. The political ecology of the Qian Country has improved. Please continue to work hard."”
"Haha!"
Qin Yin laughed heartily. He got up and walked down from the dragon throne. He pulled Di Renjie up and said,""Di Qing, I know your loyalty very well. I will not let you down. Let's go. We can't miss today's recruitment. You and I will appear together.”
"Yes, sir!"
Di Renjie was moved and stood up. He followed Invisible Qin out of the palace. Under the protection of the Flying Bear Army, they appeared directly outside the palace gate.
At this moment, thousands of people had already gathered outside the palace gates.
Everyone knew that today was Qin Yin's recruitment day. In other words, the people he chose would be the civil and military officials of the Qian Kingdom in the future. Therefore, many people wanted to see today's grand occasion.
In front of the crowd, thousands of scholars had already gathered.
There were old and young scholars. The young ones were only 18 or 19 years old, while the old ones were about 50 or 60 years old. All of them were dressed rather flashily. They wore robes and held fans in their hands, looking very impressive. Of course, whether they had the ability or not, they had to check carefully.
Seeing Qin Yin appear, everyone's discussion stopped.
"Greetings, Monarch!"
The commoners knelt down and shouted, while the thousands of scholars bowed and saluted. No one dared to be as rude as Di Renjie when facing a tyrannical monarch like Qin Yin.
"Let the recruitment begin!" Qin Yin sat firmly in the carriage and casually ordered,"Di Qing, you choose 100 people. These 100 people will all be selected to become officials in the Qian Country, but I will decide on which position to choose.”
"Yes, sir!"
Di Renjie excitedly cupped his fists and agreed. Qin Yin's instructions were naturally a sign of his trust and importance towards him, so Di Renjie was very grateful.
He also intended to show off!
After thinking for a while, he smiled and said," Everyone here is talented. However, the Qian Kingdom only needs 100 officials. So, I'll be bold enough to ask you a question. Everyone, answer it individually and submit your answers together. Then, I'll judge the result. How about that?"”
"How can this be? How can the selection of officials be such a child's play? We're good at poetry, so do you think you're going to test us on poetry?”
"That's right, I'm good at music. Why don't you come up with a music question?”
Thousands of scholars objected, but Di Renjie didn't care. He thought for a while and said loudly,""The question is very simple. The Qian Country is in chaos. He wrote down how he wanted to improve the country's strength. Come on, give each candidate a bench, a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.”
Once Di Renjie asked this question, everyone fell silent again.
Qin Yin couldn't help but praise Di Renjie secretly. Di Renjie was really a smart person. This question seemed simple, but it was very broad. It could allow everyone to use what they had learned and would be of great benefit to the Qian Country's government. This was much more practical than the eight-legged essay in the imperial examination.
Although the scholars were dissatisfied, they still had to answer the questions!
In the temporary examination hall, everyone wrote down their answers quickly. Some were full of confidence, while others were thinking hard.
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, more and more people handed in their papers.
Di Renjie was also a weirdo. He read ten lines at a glance and looked at the answers on the spot. He could tell the general ability of this person just by looking at an answer sheet. In a short while, he picked out a large number of test papers.
In the end, Di Renjie thought about it again and again. He appeared in front of Invisible Qin with 100 exam papers in his hands and said respectfully,""Ruler, please take a look at the officials selected.”
"There's no need. Call out your name. If you call out your name, I will appoint you on the spot.”Qin Yin waved his hand and instructed.
"Hmm?" Everyone exclaimed.
F * ck, Qin Yin was too casual. This is the selection of civil and military officials. Do you think it's like choosing cabbages in the market?
However, Di Renjie did not doubt it. He held the test paper in his hand and shouted,"Wen Xingwei!"
"Yes!"
A young scholar stepped out excitedly. Qin Yin sized him up and immediately saw his attributes clearly.
"Wen Xingwei, from today onwards, you will be the county magistrate of Yangdong County.”Qin Yin instructed.
"Thank you, Monarch!" The young scholar knelt down and shouted excitedly,""I accept your decree. I will not fail my mission.”
"Next, Guan Shanhai!"
"Guan Shanhai, a third-grade assistant minister in the Ministry of Personnel!”
"Next, An Jinglun!"
"An Jinglun, the head of the household department, a sixth-grade official!”
Every time Di Renjie read out a name, Qin Yin would immediately appoint and dismiss an official, as if he could see through everyone. This scene shocked the people who were watching the show.
Under such an efficient appointment and removal system, the various departments of the Qian Kingdom were quickly filled with officials, and the airs of the civil and military officials were also quickly filled.
