Chapter 54 Examination Division

After the report of the Finance Department, or the Finance Department, is completed, the Administration Department will continue to report.

Administrative Director Fan Zhongyan stood up and said, "The Administrative Office has an Agriculture Department, a Construction Department, a Yantian Department and a Household Registration Office, which are responsible for the daily government affairs of the territory. In order to clarify the powers of the Administrative Office and divide the jurisdictional responsibilities of each department more reasonably, there is a suggestion for the adjustment of the organization. Please consult the lord and the lord to provide details."

"Speaking!"

"My subordinates suggest that the Yantian Department be assigned to the jurisdiction of the Material Reserves Agency. As a strategic resource, sea salt should be under the jurisdiction of the Material Reserves Agency. Xi Wen is not talented and trusted by the Lord of the Lord. The Yantian Department, which has been in charge for so long, has been surpassed. Please allow it!" Fan Zhongyan said calmly, as if he had no idea what kind of bombshell he dropped.

As one of the most heavyweight departments in the territory, it is in charge of the economic lifeline of the territory. There is no need to repeat the importance of the Yantian Department. Now Fan Zhongyan took the initiative to assign the Yantian Department to the Material Reserves Department and hand over the heaviest department of the Administration Department.

The day before yesterday, the Agricultural Department just obtained the jurisdiction of agriculture, forestry, fishery and animal husbandry from the Material Reserves Agency. This time, the concession was a repaid. When did this tacit understanding form between Fan Zhongyan and Tian Wenjing?

This is the thought of most of the people here, and it is also the biggest question in their hearts. Ouyang Shuo never believed that the facts would be so simple.

As the head of the civil servants of the territory personally granted by Ouyang Shuo, Fan Zhongyan must have wanted to show his political ambitions. Clarifying the relationship between various departments was his first move. Especially the arrival of Tian Wenjing gave him a sense of urgency. Therefore, he took the initiative to speed up the pace of organizational adjustment.

Ouyang Shuo naturally held a positive attitude towards such a healthy competition and said, "Agree!"

Fan Zhongyan was obviously confident and was not surprised by Ouyang Shuo's permission. He continued: "In addition, with the rapid increase in the population of the territory, the work of household registration is becoming more and more heavy. Therefore, his subordinates suggested that the household registration office be officially upgraded to the household registration department."

Ouyang Shuo said without expression: "Accurate! In addition, the Administrative Office recommends a new head of the household registration department and submits it to me for approval. Gu Xiuwen, the former head of the household registration office, has other arrangements."

This was really beyond Fan Zhongyan's expectations. Gu Xiuwen can be said to be his most important assistant in the Administrative Office. According to the adults' wishes, he wanted to transfer him from the Administrative Office, so that he could not touch his mind for a while.

It was difficult to find someone who could replace Gu Xiuwen and take up the position of director of the Household Registration Department in the Administrative Office for a while. Whether it was Du Quan, the original grassroots clerk of the Household Registration Office, or Qin Shijian, the assistant of Fan Zhongyan in the Administrative Office, they were all a little reluctant.

Temporarily pressing his doubts, Fan Zhongyan took the last step of his organizational adjustment and said: "Report to the lord. With the continuous improvement and expansion of the territorial administrative agencies, the civil servant system, including grassroots government personnel, has become increasingly large. It coincides with the wave of privatization, and various temptations are coming one after another. The subordinates believe that it is time to set up a special department to supervise and assess the performance of civil servants."

Ouyang Shuo nodded in agreement. This was exactly what he was concerned about. After privatization, he could not expect all government officials to be consciously honest and self-disciplined and perform their duties conscientiously. If he really thinks this way, it is completely political immaturity. If he wants to prevent problems from happening, it is only by putting shackles on all civil servants from a system perspective and putting power in a cage. That is the safest thing to do.

From ancient times to the present, administration has always been a difficult problem and the most troublesome problem for rulers. Now Fan Zhongyan has taken the initiative to establish a department for assessing officials, and he feels very pleased. He is worthy of being Fan Wenzhenggong. While strictly self-disciplined, he also wants to clarify the official atmosphere in the entire territory.

"I agree very much with what the sir said. I decided to set up a test tutoring department to be responsible for the disciplinary and discussion of civil servants. The test tutoring department is under the jurisdiction of the Administrative Office, and the chief officer shall be the chief officer of the Administrative Office." Ouyang Shuo said.

At this point, Fan Zhongyan initially realized his political intentions through three simple steps. The examination and meritorious service was like a sharp sword hanging above the head of a civil servant, making them afraid to dereliction of duty. Otherwise, what awaited them would be severe punishments of demotion or even removal.

As for the specific work arrangements of the Administrative Office, it is too complicated and not suitable for discussion at the meeting. After the meeting, Ouyang Shuo will personally find the heads of each department and discuss it separately.

After the report of the Administration Department was completed, it was finally the turn of the Material Reserve Department to report. Similarly, the Material Reserve Department had just been established and a lot of work had not been sorted out.

Tian Wenjing still had the face of paralysis and said calmly: "There is only one suggestion under his jurisdiction. There are currently more than 200 horses in the territory, and as the cavalry expands, it will increase further. Therefore, it is very necessary to choose a ranch as a horse farm. More importantly, we must find suitable stallions to cultivate better war horses."

Tian Wenjing's suggestion reminded Ouyang Shuo that in his previous life, the Lianzhou Basin produced an excellent war horse - Qingfeng horse.

According to legend, the green horse is the product of the ancient god insect green horse and the wild horse. Therefore, the green horse inherited the green horse's will, running like the wind, and conscious of the path, making it very suitable for acting as a war horse.

"Director Tian's suggestion is very good. In fact, there is a good war horse called Qingfengma in our Lianzhou Basin. As far as I know, Qingfengma mainly lives in the center of the basin. Therefore, to find Qingfengma, you must cross the Friendship River and search the other side of the river."

As he changed his voice, Ouyang Shuo continued: "However, there are a group of powerful nomadic peoples living in the heart of Lianzhou Basin. All of these nomadic peoples are soldiers, especially good at riding and shooting, which is not easy. If you want to successfully capture the green horses, you are very likely to encounter them."

At this time, Sangouzi from the Military Information Department stood up and said loudly: "Sir, let us leave this matter to our Military Information Department!"

Ouyang Shuo nodded and solemnly ordered: "I agree with the dispatch of the Military Information Department. However, I want to make a request. This time I go out to investigate, and the focus is to find out the specific scope of activities of the green horses and not to conflict with nomadic peoples."

Sangouzi nodded vigorously and said, "I understand! Sir, don't worry!"

At this point, the first enlarged meeting of Shanhai Town came to an end. After the meeting, Ouyang Shuo left behind military generals to study the army's next expansion plan.

After experiencing the last victory of the middle-level bandit camp, Ouyang Shuo deeply realized the importance of infantry and said straight to the point: "This time the army expansion has been expanded, the organization of the cavalry squadron remains unchanged. The focus is on infantry, and I am going to directly expand an infantry squadron."

The generals nodded, and Shi Wansui, on behalf of the military, asked: "According to the lord's wishes, who is responsible for the newly formed infantry squadron?"

All the fire chiefs and team chiefs here, except Lin Yi, are still seventh-level elite soldiers, and can only serve as team chiefs at the highest level. There is no need to think about the squadron leader.

"The infantry squadron is personally organized by General Shi, and you are temporarily serving as the squadron leader. As for the cavalry squadron, Lin Yi, the former cavalry 2nd team, was promoted to the squadron leader of the cavalry squadron." Ouyang Shuo announced the new personnel appointment and removal.

Lin Yi, a young man, has a flexible mind and a calm mind. He is a good seedling. In just one month of joining the army, he has served as the chief of the team and is now promoted to the squadron leader. This shows that Ouyang Shuo appreciates and trusts him.

Lin Yi was naturally grateful for his value of the adults and said excitedly: "I will thank you for your promotion and will live up to my entrustedness!"

Ouyang Shuo waved his hand, looked at Zhang Daniu, Zhao Sihu and others who showed an envious look on the side, and said with a smile: "You don't have to be envious. I will give you a promise. Who among you is the first to break through to the ninth level elite soldier, I will promote him to the squadron leader of the infantry squadron."

As the saying goes, there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts. This is great. After Ouyang Shuo's aroused, the ten fire chiefs immediately screamed, trying to win the first to break through to the ninth level elite soldier.

Among the ten fire chiefs, Zhang Daniu, Zhao Sihu and Li Mingliang have the highest ranks and belong to the first tier and may break through to the eighth level at any time. Liao Kai, Zhou Feng and other fire chiefs who have just taken office are slightly inferior, and are still only at the sixth level.

Therefore, the position of squadron leader of the infantry squadron is most likely to be decided from the three old fire chiefs of Zhang Daniu. Among the three, Zhang Daniu and Zhao Sihu have more advantages, while Li Mingliang, who is slightly feminine, is slightly inferior.

As for the two positions in the cavalry squadron vacant positions, Ouyang Shuo was not in a hurry to appoint them. He had to wait until the squadron leader of the infantry squadron was decided before making arrangements.

After discussing the military expansion, Ouyang Shuo rushed to the market as soon as possible to purchase architectural drawings.

This time, four village-level buildings are to be upgraded to the town-level level. Among them, village-level toilets belong to first-level village buildings. Therefore, higher-level town-level toilets are priced at 20 gold coins. This is also the highest level of toilets, and there are no county-level toilets or county-level toilets.

Village-level granaries, village-level ancestral halls and village-level private schools are second-level village buildings, and each town-level building drawing is priced at 50 gold coins. Granary and private schools can be upgraded to county-level, and ancestral halls can be upgraded to ancestral temples.

In addition, Ouyang Shuo spent another 20 gold coins to buy an intermediate market building drawing, unlocking the auction platform function in advance. Five building drawings cost 190 gold coins.

Speaking of architectural drawings, he remembered that in his storage bag, there were four useless architectural drawings obtained from the last time he wiped out the intermediate bandit camp, namely the architectural drawings of the martial arts hall, stables, weapons workshops and mail towers. He simply took them out and sold them to the market, deducting 20% ​​of the transaction tax, and obtained 52 gold coins.

After a lot of trouble, he only had 372 gold coins left, which was really useless.

In addition to architectural drawings, Ouyang Shuo also planned to buy some fruit seeds that are suitable for growing in the Lianzhou Basin, and can be directly planted with seeds or cultivated seedlings with seeds. In the end, he chose Luohan Fruit.

In fact, Guangxi is also rich in fruits such as lychees, longans, persimmons, etc., but these fruits must be purchased specially cultivated seedlings for planting. The fruits grown using seeds are all real wild plants and are difficult to bear fruit. Even if they bear fruit, they are not delicious.
