Chapter 80: Those who do not endanger themselves, how can they be officials

With the opening of the county government, many people entered the county government and wanted to see how the county government operated. However, Chen Fei followed the plan and only received thirty people every day. Each person could only stay in the front hall of the county government for less than seven minutes at a time, and then had to leave. He could not even enter the office to watch, and he had to whisper. However, although there were only thirty people, many people rushed in to check it out every day, after all, it was too rare.

However, with the opening of the county government, some problems have also been brought about. That is, those office clerks began to be a little scared, because they did not have outsiders to stare at them when they were working, so they were sometimes lazy and did not look like they were working. But now that people come in, even if the people cannot go into them to see what they do at close range, they are forced to do things honestly. In the past, they were idle and had nothing to do and then chatted with each other.

There is almost no situation for foreign workers, because there may be people watching outside at any time. Once, when people saw someone not doing work during work, they were playing Ye Zishe, and then they were stabbed to the county magistrate Chen Fei. Chen Fei deducted the salary of these guys who played cards for half a month on the spot, which was a pain. After that, no one dared to do whatever he wanted, because there was a commoner at the door who saw your behavior, and no one knew whether it would be stuck in Chen Fei.

There are very few clerks who usually want to borrow the little power in their hands to take advantage of the money and get some extra money because they are afraid that they will be discovered by the people at any time. Although the probability of these situations is very low, they all have a sense of awe in their hearts and dare not do anything randomly. In the past, the people would let them deceive and bully, but now Chen Fei actually took the initiative to confess that he is the public servant of the people, so what is the servant of these servants? So they didn't dare to take the opportunity to take advantage of the public, and who would know if those people would see it? After all, many people were guilty, so those hands that reached out to the court also took back.

"Mr. Chen, the open county government you created cannot continue like this. People have come in one after another in the past few days, but the clerks in each room below cannot do things with peace of mind. Recently, it seems that the county government government has been in a mess. If this continues, I really don't know what problems will happen." said Zhang Mingde, the county magistrate.

But Chen Fei shook his head and said, "They just don't adapt to doing things when outsiders are watching. They are used to doing things without supervision, so they feel uncomfortable if they are suddenly supervised. I just let the people come and see, but what are they all guilty? If I grant the people the right to sue them, then who knows what else will happen to them?"

"What? Let the people sue them? If this happens, the people can supervise our officials, what's that like?" Zhang Mingde couldn't understand.

"Of course not. We just want the people to supervise the clerks!" Chen Fei replied.

Chen Fei also knew that he could not directly grant the people the power to supervise officials at once. Progressing too fast would cause trouble. However, it is still possible to let the people supervise these clerks, because they are not officials under the imperial court. Even if they are qualified to be officials, they are not officials after all!

"But now they are all very nervous. They feel in danger of whatever they want to do now. They seem to be staring at everything they do, and they dare not slack off at all. If the entire officialdom does this, then everyone in the entire officialdom will be in danger!" Zhang Mingde said with some pain.

Chen Fei said lightly: "Why do you become an official if you are not in danger?"

Zhang Mingde suddenly burst into lightning in his mind, and he seemed to understand something.

Chen Fei sighed. He knew that Zhang Mingde had roughly understood. Why do those who are not self-inflicted should be an official? In fact, Chen Fei's meaning is very obvious, that is, there must be supervision and awe. As a person, he must first have awe, awe of his parents, awe of morality, and awe of the law. If a person completely loses awe, then this person will also do whatever he wants.

To measure a person's bottom line, it depends on what he is awe of. During natural disasters, some people will also have awe of heaven and earth, and thus have the idea of ​​protecting the environment. Some people are punished for doing something wrong, and they may have awe of the law and ensure that they will not continue to make mistakes in the future. Awe is the basis for preventing the morality of the entire society from being reduced. If everyone does not have awe, then human beings will perish. Even emperors must have awe, such as the so-called heaven and the so-called ancestors, these are the objects of awe of the emperor.

Only with awe from the heart can one feel the danger around oneself, which is self-inflicted. If an official does not have awe, he does not feel his own danger. When he is corrupt, he does not have awe of the law, then he will soon be in prison or even lose his head. If he does not have awe of the people on the day of abuse of power, he will soon be stepped down. And if officials across the country do not have awe of the people, then the country will soon be destroyed. Only a government that has a truly awe of the people can truly be safe and stable.

However, ancient officials had no awe of the people and no awe of the law. They just respected power and the rights of people with greater power than their own. Therefore, they were fearless of the people and would do whatever they wanted. Chen Fei wanted to help them establish these awesomeness, so that the people could watch at any time, so that they knew that the people were watching them at their side. People watched their every move, and they would never dare to slacke in their work. Of course, Chen Fei was still in a small position now, so it was impossible for him to expand the scope of supervision of all the people. But in this county government, he could still do this.
