As early as 1863, in order to cope with the increasing population and the needs of municipal management, Nanhua began to learn from the civil service reform plan just implemented in the United Kingdom, implement a completely open civil service examination, and recruit civil servants through open civil service recruitment. In fact, for this
Yes, China has long been familiar with it. After all, China has long relied on examinations to select officials. This is the imperial examination system.
Nanhua, on the other hand, borrowed some contents from the British Civil Service Examination on the basis of the imperial examination system, rather than selecting and employing people through the eight-legged essay of the imperial examination.
Different from selecting officials through the imperial examination, "civil servants" are selected officials to a certain extent. If you want to become an official, you must first become an "official".
It was also from that time that "civil servant" became the only way for ordinary South Chinese people to squeeze into the officialdom. I don't know how many South Chinese people dreamed of being "nominated on the gold list".
After all, for Chinese people, becoming an official is the best shortcut to success. At least this has been the case with Chinese education for thousands of years. Studying is for becoming an official.
As long as you become an official, rapid success is a natural thing. There is no imperial examination in Nanhua, and you can only enter the officialdom by applying for the civil service examination.
Therefore, every civil service recruitment attracts many people to apply. However, it is not easy to take the civil service examination. In the past, the requirements were very high-not only must one be proficient in at least one foreign language, but one must also receive a vocational school education-a vocational school is
To a certain extent, universities are schools used by companies to train specialized talents.
Nanhua doesn't recognize any talented people. It only recognizes Nanhua's own "academic qualifications". For immigrants, if they want to become successful, the easiest shortcut is to "do questions"!
Like all immigrants, Feng Haodong worked in a factory when he first came to Nanhua. However, after studying privately for several years, he was not satisfied with the monthly salary of more than ten yuan. Instead, he studied in night schools.
After three years of learning foreign languages, mathematics, geography and other knowledge, he finally passed the high school entrance examination, which is just an academic ability test, and obtained his high school diploma.
Like all those who passed the college entrance examination, he entered the accounting school and became a company employee after graduation. Although the difference between employee and employee is only one word, the income and benefits are very different. As an employee, he can apply for independence after getting married.
A residential building is provided, while employees can only apply for unit buildings. As for income, it is much higher than that of ordinary employees.
But even so, Feng Haodong still hopes to become a civil servant. After all, a civil servant is...an official!
official!
Be an official!
This is the ultimate dream of a scholar.
Because of this, he has been working hard to prepare for the civil service exam in the past year.
Sitting at the desk, Feng Haodong once again looked at the recruitment information in the "Nanyuan Daily". There were a lot of books piled on the desk. Civil servants in Nanhua did not specify textbooks or exam syllabuses, so there was no direction for review.
According to Zhu Xianhai's requirements, the exam content covers mathematics, foreign languages, history, geography, biology and other fields. It basically tests all the logic, calculation, natural and scientific knowledge related to middle school.
In Zhu Xianhai's view, whether it is designated teaching materials or setting up examination syllabus, it is essentially another disguised form of "eight-legged writing", so he will learn from the examination plan in the British civil service reform plan. Because the content of the examination is too excessive
It is complicated. Over the years, Nanhua's civil service examination has been able to eliminate nearly half of the candidates after the first test.
When entering the main examination stage, the examination subjects are divided into nine subjects, and the content is more complex and specific. In addition to the examination of self-selected professional subjects, it also involves more specific and detailed international relations, economic management, public governance, science and technology, and history.
Culture, moral cultivation, etc. In addition, you must pass at least one foreign language qualification examination in English, French, Spanish, Portuguese and German. After the main examination is over, there will be an interview.
Moreover, candidates can only take the exam six times in their lifetime. If they fail the exam six times, they will no longer be eligible to apply. Because of this, no one will take the exam easily without being prepared.
Although it is difficult, for those South Chinese people from China who have no background, the civil service examination is the best way to change their destiny.
Do the questions!
As long as you do the questions well, you will definitely change your destiny!
In Nanhua, this is extremely fair and just. Nanhua will never treat any problem solver badly, nor will it take away the position of those problem solvers because of someone's background.
Everything in Nanhua ultimately boils down to fairness, and there is nothing else but fairness.
The first is fairness, the second is fairness, and the third must still be fairness.
If there is no such basic fairness, does fairness still have meaning?
Like many people, Feng Haodong also chose to "do the questions". Although he was greatly shocked when he first came to Nanhua. He originally thought that as a child, he could easily pass the "High School Academic Ability Test" and enter a vocational school.
, he found a well-paid job in the company, but as a result, he was immediately stunned by the unheard-of knowledge in foreign languages, mathematics, geography, natural history, etc. Fortunately, he adapted quickly and was extremely smart. He only learned
Passed the high school entrance examination in three years.
Doing questions... Feng Haodong feels that he is still very good at it. In fact, which person who took the imperial examination is not good at it?
Since the Song Dynasty, when imperial examinations were used to judge talents, over thousands of years, there have been a few outstanding officials in China who did not become capable by answering questions.
Well, that is to say, the princes and ministers of the Manchu Qing Dynasty do not need to answer questions. They can become Manchu ministers relying on their bloodline from the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty.
But there is no such thing in Nanhua, everyone needs to do the questions.
Although Nanhua's exams are very fair, there are many restrictions. There are restrictions on age, number of exams, and subject categories.
When he was not fully prepared, Feng Haodong still did not dare to apply for the civil service exam easily. After all, he only had five opportunities in his life.
But what should I do when faced with the Civil Service Exam, which has no unified textbooks and no exam syllabus? It’s like a complete fog. Even if I’m reviewing, I can’t figure it out?
I can only read the book over and over again, read as many books as possible, and answer as many questions as possible.
But there has to be a range!
Mathematics, foreign languages, history, geography, biology, international relations, economic management, public governance, science and technology...
You have to learn all of these! Because the scope involved is too wide, it is difficult to prepare for the exam in a targeted manner. You can only learn as much as you can.
What’s even more embarrassing is that only one or two hundred civil servants are recruited every year!
But thousands of people signed up!
Who doesn’t want to be an official?
Just when he was desperate, this civil service recruitment announcement gave Feng Haodong hope.
"What a God-given opportunity! I thought it would be difficult to enter an official career in this life, but I never thought that this opportunity would be right in front of me!"
As a result, Feng Haodong and Yuan Tianxi directly applied for the exam, and the registration fee cost two silver dollar coupons!
After registering and paying the registration fee, Yuan Tianxi said with emotion:
"Haodong, when I first came to Nanhua, I always felt that everything here was very awkward, but what about the reality? If I stayed in Tangshan, what would happen even if I relied on the imperial examination to get an official position?
It is simply wishful thinking to be a slave, kowtow when you see people, or to become an official without kowtow, but it is different here in Nanhua. Everything is new. As long as you have talent and learning, there will be a place for you to use it.
Even if we fail to pass the civil service examination and cannot become an official, we still rely on our knowledge to pass the vocational college entrance examination, enter a vocational school, and become a company employee."
"What Brother Yuan said is absolutely true. Nanhua is indeed different from Tangshan in every way, and there are many opportunities. If you can pass the civil service examination this time, Brother Yuan will definitely have a bright future in the future with his intelligence."
"Haodong, that's ridiculous. It's still important to pass the civil service examination first. Now is a rare opportunity, so don't miss it!"
Yuan Tianxi said again.
"The powers and responsibilities of this Land Reform Commission are still unclear. I heard that it is a newly established agency, and the civil servants recruited by Nanhua are all civil servants. I don't know what the future development prospects will be. It is really disappointing.
I have no idea what to do! Besides, I only have half a month to prepare, so the time is really tight!”
Tight!
Why is time tight?
Because Sun Wenshan has no time to waste!
As the Argentinian provinces annexed one after another, the implementation of land reform became the top priority of all tasks.
If you want to implement reforms, you need people.
These people need to be able to speak Spanish, be familiar with government affairs, and know how to manage local areas. Therefore, new civil servants must be recruited. Unlike the previous recruitment of about 200 civil servants every year, this time the committee recruited 812 people at once. In fact, this
This is just the first batch. To complete the entire land reform plan, at least 2,000 civil servants need to be recruited.
Such a large-scale recruitment attracted many people to apply.
For any South Chinese person, being able to enter the ranks of civil servants not only means that they no longer have to worry about livelihood issues, but also embark on the path of "winner in life". After all, the salary of civil servants is very generous, and the salary of general new employees starts from
It ranges from 60 yuan to 75 yuan per month.
In addition, there are various types of transportation subsidies, children's subsidies, food subsidies or subsidies for difficult areas, and many other projects. After retirement, you can also receive a very generous pension.
Not only are the salaries much higher than ordinary people, civil servants also have very good benefits. In addition to free medical care, they also have housing that matches their level. Even when they reach a certain level, they have government-sponsored nannies, chefs, etc. to take care of their daily life.
The reason why the remuneration is generous is that... Nanhua's civil servants were first implemented in Shanxi, that is, Araucania and later occupied Chile. In other words, they are the proper ruling class there, and they serve as conquerors.
to rule those areas.
As conquerors in the occupied territories, can they not be treated generously? After all, the dangers they will face in the occupied territories are unimaginable to the outside world...
