540. The Friends of the Officials (Part 2)
"Husband, you are really aware that you have attracted so many officials. I really don't know why you have to speak to these ordinary officials. What rights do they have?" Xue Xue said.
In Xue Xue's eyes, Jing Wen had to make good friends with those high-ranking officials, not these souvenirs. These souvenirs had no rights, no status, how could they have too much political influence? But Jing Wen smiled and said nothing, because he knew that these minor officials could not underestimate them.
Although it is popular in many legends and the people's minds, these soaps are not good things, and they often extort from the people. Last time, the constables wanted to blackmail their money. The head of the captain was chopped off by Li Shimin because he offended his daughter. However, under the pleading between Jing Wen and Princess Changle, his family did not receive much punishment, but was just exiled. Jing Wen later proposed the proposal of the unity of officials, which reminded Li Shimin of the incident. Jing Wen actually used the head of the captain to act as a warning to Li Shimin. However, women like Jing Wen did not have a good impression of the soaps, so they thought that the crows were as black as the world, so naturally they were not very keen on Jing Wen's help.
But Jing Wen knew that if these minor officials were really united, they would probably have a headache. Although these minor officials had little power, they had the ability to firmly grasp the right to implement policies. The direction of policy implementation is all up to them. If they all misunderstood the policy method, the country would probably be disabled. These officials are actually a group of people in political occasions, and their potential influence is great. However, they usually do not have a spokesperson to speak for them. They usually cannot become senior officials, so no one in the top leaders of the country can speak for them, which also causes them to fail to perfectly exert their influence.
But the current policy gives them a path, as long as they can promote some people of the same origin, then there will be someone at the top to help them speak. This means that they have a big backstage, which can allow more of them to grow up.
"Let them come in!" Jing Wen said.
Soon, the soap clerks selected representatives and came in to meet Jingwen. I have to say that there are also relationship circles among the officials, and they also have some leaders in their hearts, so they also selected representatives to meet Jingwen.
"Sir Jingwen, thank you for giving us this opportunity. In the future, if you say anything to Lord Jingwen, we will follow his command!" said the minor officials.
After hearing the promises from these minor officials, Jing Wen immediately knew that he had become the so-called friend of officials. These officials actually wanted Jing Wen to become their boss, and Jing Wen could help them speak with the senior officials. As long as Jing Wen can maintain their upward channels at the senior officials, they may continue to rise. Jing Wen is their spokesperson, becoming the spokesperson for these minor officials.
"You guys, you have to tell your colleagues, be careful! Because I'm afraid that many people will squeeze in and steal your job!" Jing Wen laughed.
Jing Wen's words are not unreasonable. Because in the past, ordinary poor families entered the government, there was only one way to the imperial examination. However, this road was too difficult, only dozens of people were admitted every year, and the proportion was crazy low. Now these souvenirs can also enter the government. The professions that people originally looked down upon suddenly became popular. Although there were only one or two places in a yamen every six months, this proportion was much larger than the imperial examination. Therefore, I am afraid that those with some culture would come to grab their jobs. There was no saying in ancient times. If they were not done well, they would fire you directly.
"Don't worry, sir, we still have confidence in how much we have. The adult's examination method has been matched. At that time, we will not only not be snatched away by others, but will also be able to go to the next level." A Zao Li promised.
Jing Wen nodded because this guy said it well. As long as the examination method is implemented together with the strategy of integrating officials, those capable officials can be promoted quickly. As long as those capable minor officials can be promoted, they will become spokespersons for ordinary minor officials in major yamen, and they can mention those ordinary minor officials for profit. Because they are from minor officials, they are definitely not highly respected by officials from imperial examinations and family backgrounds. When this background determines everything, they can only unite people of the same background and fight together in the officialdom. These officials from the soap official must be their natural allies.
If the examination is completed, those incompetent officials may be gradually cleared out of the officialdom. Especially those officials who cannot complete their work, they may soon go home for free. On the contrary, those capable officials from Zaoli are promoted faster. Because they have rich experience in grassroots work, and they have the support of those low-level officials, those minor officials buy their accounts. Because only when they are promoted can those minor officials follow one by one and become officials. In this way, a capable official expels those incompetent officials. In this way, the officialdom can gradually expel those noble officials who do not have much ability in the future, and in the future, it can be said that they will be a poor world.
"Maybe, it will take hundreds of years for poor families to expel nobles!" Jing Wen thought.
