The warlords from all over the world began to take out their coffins or sell things to obtain a large number of armaments. Everyone quietly expanded their armies and waited for the opportunity to arrive.
Nie Wenzhou didn't know about this for the time being. He was very busy now.
The two newly occupied cities in western Henan needed to be managed by government officials, but the training of officials could not keep up. Previously, there was no systematic training plan, so most of them were selected from the internal department to be promoted to other places. However, many of them had just started working and were not completely familiar with their jobs. If they were promoted like this, it would probably cause chaos in both places. As the butler, Wang Dingfeng had no choice but to ask Nie Wenzhou for help.
Nie Wenzhou looked at the documents and felt a headache coming on. However, many things couldn't be completely handed over to others to handle. They didn't have the guts to take over this power.
"Major, are you thinking about the officials?”Zhao Xuemei saw that Nie Wenzhou had not moved for a long time, so she couldn't help but call out to him.
"Yes, we don't have enough manpower now. We've just moved all the officials in the province. If we transfer them away now, there will be trouble. However, it was too late to set up a military school to train talents. A distant water could not put out a nearby fire!”
Zhao Xuemei hesitated and said,"That's fine. We can recruit people in society!" I feel that most of the scholars who have just entered Shaanxi are of good character.”
Nie Wenzhou found it strange. According to what he knew in the past, it was not that there was no recruitment in society, but most of them were low-level civil servants. It was impossible to give a county head to a newcomer for fun, right?
"How can you guarantee that they have the ability to handle everything in a city? One had to know that many of them only had knowledge and had never been an official.”
"How can I not have the ability?" Sister Zhao said with certainty. Many of them were highly educated and had good morals. They all wanted to participate in the country's construction. I think as long as he has enough enthusiasm for the country and the people, he will definitely work hard for the people. At least he won't mess things up!”
Nie Wenzhou fell silent.
In the past, he had seen many government officials who were honest and conscientious in serving the people. However, this was an era where military power was above political power. Whoever had soldiers and generals had the right to speak. This was the case when a scholar met a soldier. The literati of this era were extremely extreme. They would either sacrifice their lives for the country or kneel down and lick the boots of the foreign powers. Therefore, the characters of these scholars in Shaanxi were almost unquestionable, but it tested Nie Wenzhou's courage.
Fortunately, Nie Wenzhou didn't hesitate for long and gave an affirmative answer. It was a special period now, so special things were handled specially!
As a result, the government was recruiting civil servants at all levels on public signs and newspapers. This news was a bit shocking. Many people who had just entered Shaanxi were discussing it.
"Brother Shao Bai, what does this young marshal mean? Could he really hand over a city to someone who had no political experience? Isn't this nonsense?!"
"Brother Ziheng, don't be impatient. Didn't I say that special matters are handled specially? Now that the government was short of people, it was still possible to find some university students or international students. After all, there was always knowledge. As long as we don't get a boorish old man to cause trouble, I think we can still negotiate.”
"I just feel that if we leave the fate of the people in the hands of these people, I'm afraid that Zhao Kuo and the others will ruin the plan and the people will suffer.”
"Sir, I think you don't have to worry so much. If the major dared to do this, he would definitely guard it well. Look at this province. It's not well governed now. It's much better than other places.”
"Yes, yes, yes. Mr. Wen Xuan is right. Sir, you don't have to worry. You see, most of the government officials are temporary staff recruited by the Young Marshal. Now, each and every one of them has been straightened out and are doing very well.”
......
The discussions in the streets and alleys could not reduce the enthusiasm of people to become officials. Since ancient times, China had a history of nearly 2,000 years of official positions. How could it disappear in such a short period of time? Whether it was to bring honor to their ancestors or to build a good country, many people rushed forward.
Although the selection of officials this time seemed a little sloppy, Nie Wenzhou still tried his best to recall things from the past and then produced a large examination paper. The exam papers contained knowledge about politics, economy, culture, science, technology, and people's livelihood. Although most of them were multiple-choice questions, the knowledge contained was not something that people who were just trying to make up the numbers could grasp.
In addition, during the interview, Nie Wenzhou would personally check on these people's character, talent, and how they handled things before assigning them positions. As for whether there were any speculators, it did not matter. The forest was big, what kind of people did not exist? In any case, the supervisory authority would be set up soon. If he didn't do anything then, Nie Wenzhou wouldn't be a benevolent person.
However, this candidate for the Inspector General of the supervisory authority shocked everyone. It was actually because they did not have enough money. This person who had been demoted by Nie Wenzhou had been depressed for a long time after failing to walk the path of a consort. However, he didn't expect his luck to turn around and he was put in an important position by Nie Wenzhou. The position of the Inspector General didn't seem to be high, but it was very powerful. All government officials were under supervision.
Nie Wenzhou actually had no choice. Now that there were so many people, he couldn't manage the surveillance in every aspect. The establishment of this monitoring agency was a matter of time, but he really didn't have anyone on hand! After thinking about it, he felt that the money was not enough, the qualifications were sufficient, and he had his own methods. He was an official fanatic and had a belly full of schemes. Although it was useless to use it on Nie Wenzhou, he was definitely suitable for the position of inspector general. Those who wanted to gain benefits or do bad things, if they did not have enough money, would be able to identify the tricks and tricks more easily than other upright people.
Not Enough Money was also very happy to receive this appointment. He did not expect that there would be a silver lining. He might as well wait patiently. His previous actions were like playing a monkey in front of Nie Wenzhou. This time, he had finally returned to the center of power. This was Nie Wenzhou's close minister. Although he was going from a military general to a civil servant this time, he still went to set up his own organization in high spirits. For an official fanatic like him, as long as it was an official, he didn't care whether it was civil or military.
The selection this time really did not disappoint everyone. The first written examination had swept away most of the people. It couldn't be helped. Nie Wenzhou's questions were too scary. It felt like an encyclopedia. This was common knowledge for people in the 21st century. However, people nowadays did not have so many ways to obtain knowledge, so they were confused when they encountered these obstacles.
In the end, more than a hundred people were selected. They were all knowledgeable people in various fields. After the interview, half of the outstanding people were arranged to take up positions in various places. The rest were used as candidates to study in the newly established military and political school. They would be selected first when there were places to arrange for them.
