There is another thing that Xi Zhong did not mention. Although there are many officials in the Daqian, the treatment of the officials is not as high as that of the Han Dynasty. Many low-level officials, who are said to be officials, are actually minor officials in the Han Dynasty. These low-level officials only earn a thousand cents. The monthly salary is not high, and a county's finances can naturally support these officials.
Of course, the official system of Daqian is completely different from that of Dahan. The higher the official position of Daqian, the better the treatment, and there are a lot of potential benefits. In addition, local powerful people share the wealth, just like what is said in the play, the gentry's money is given in full. , the money spent to repay the muddy leg was divided into accounts at 30-70, but in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, let alone 30-70, even 91 was not necessarily divided into accounts.
Most of the interests of the Han Dynasty were monopolized by these people, and they could not receive the Han court at all. Naturally, they could not enhance the national power of the Han Dynasty. Insufficient financial resources made the Han Dynasty unable to support too many officials and petty officials, so there was a lack of imperial power in the Han Dynasty. The matter of going to the countryside left all the grassroots to the powerful gentry of the Han Dynasty.
It can be said that this is the process of the gradual decline of the Han Dynasty, the process in which the powerful gentry and officials are like parasites that eat away at the Han Dynasty.
However, the treatment of officials at the bottom of the cadres is higher than that of the big men, and there is still hope for further advancement. In the past, officials like police officers, Qiangfu, and Cao officials had no prospects for promotion.
But in Daqian, they can also become county magistrates. After their salary is improved and they have a bright future, these low-level officials naturally work harder than the big men. With this group of low-level officials who serve loyally, the boundaries of power in Daqian are much better than those of Daqian. Dahan was more than 10 times bigger, and the imperial power was truly sent to the countryside. The greater the power, the more benefits he received, which was reflected in Daqian's finances being dozens of times greater than Dahan.
The reduction in the salary of county magistrates and prefects is nothing to these grassroots officials, because they did not even have to work as minor officials in the past, and county magistrates and prefects simply did not have to think about it.
So even if these low-level officials were promoted to county magistrates and prefects, they could only be grateful to Xu Wei without complaining, because it was Xu Wei who gave them the possibility of leaping over the dragon's gate, and they didn't know what the magistrates and prefects of the Han Dynasty had. What a profit!
And if the original county magistrates and prefects of the Han Dynasty join the Daqian army, they will definitely not be satisfied with the lowered treatment, and at the same time, they will also lose the benefits of various unspoken rules. They will not be grateful to Xu Wei, but will complain endlessly, thinking that Xu Wei did not value the talents of the world and did not give them the world. He was too stingy and stingy and was not a world-beating hero. They would find ways to restore the various unspoken rules left by the Han Dynasty.
To a certain extent, it was because Xu Wei cut off Han officials from entering the Daqian officialdom that the purity of the Daqian officialdom was maintained.
Although these officials of the Han Dynasty cannot be fought, internal fighting is at the level of kings. Xu Wei and others are just a group of stubborn bronzes. If you really want to fight with them, it is impossible to defeat them. It is impossible to say that Xu Wei will learn from Zhu Yuanzhang. Set off a big eucalyptus to deal with these officials!
But the consequences of this can be seen from the emperors of the Ming Dynasty. Many people boasted that Zhu Yuanzhang, one emperor through the ages, started with a bowl.
But in Xu Wei's view, Zhu Yuanzhang was just a political novice. He could not fight politically against the corrupt officials left behind by the Yuan Dynasty. He could only turn over the table and use the big guns to physically eliminate these people, leaving endless troubles for him. His descendants will repay it.
Xu Wei is much more self-aware than Zhu Yuanzhang. He knows that he is an ordinary person and cannot fight those people, so he will not fight with them and will be banned directly.
But things are much better now. The previous kings have all been banned and cannot play. Xu Wei and Da Gan's group of bronze novices can play happily together.
Lack of internal fighting in the officialdom does not mean poor ability. In fact, as long as most government affairs in the officialdom are handled according to the rules, no big mistakes will be made.
In the opinion of Xi Zhong, one of the grassroots officials of Daqian can do things more efficiently and more capable than ten officials of the Han Dynasty. At least they will not force all the people in the world to rebel like the officials of the Han Dynasty.
The fiscal revenue of each county in Daqian was also ten times higher than that of Dahan. Every additional official could create an additional benefit, and because there were no elites and nobles to share the wealth, the common people also received more benefits.
Due to the emergence of the gold boom, Yuyang and Quan County have experienced an unprecedented economic boom in the past two years. A large number of people have poured into Yuyang and Quan County. These people who are bolder want to cross the sea to Wodao to pan for gold.
The timid ones also want to stay in Quan County, because they find that even if they work part-time in the county, their income in one month is equal to the income from farming in their hometown for a year. The first generation of migrant workers has begun to appear in the county. .
But such a huge crowd also brought big troubles. Rangers, gangsters, and gangsters fought fiercely, and sneaky people from all religions also gathered at the dock in large numbers.
To manage these people requires a lot of manpower, which is why he needs manpower.
As for the financial issue, this is simply a joke to Yuyang and even Quan County now. The benefits of the first two waves of the gold boom have basically been obtained by authority. Now the fiscal revenue of each county in Quan County is higher than that of Yuyang County. High, maybe even higher than Yanzhou, and even newly acquired prefectures and counties like Yuzhou are higher.
With such a high fiscal income, what does it mean to support an official worth 1,800 yuan?
Jia Xu nodded and said: "I will talk to the ruling party about this. I also have this idea. The ruling party plans to train 3,000 more basic officials among the retired soldiers this year, and then on this basis, it will start to expand every year. Very soon The problem of lack of grassroots officials will be solved soon, and 500 such grassroots officials can be allocated to you in up to three months."
The actor nodded and said, "I'm relieved!"
Although the grassroots officials in Daqian are mediocre in ability, they can actually act according to the rules, are not corrupt, have some subjective initiative, and actively complete the tasks assigned by their superiors. For such small officials, they can be regarded as capable in Dahan. Official.
What else could the opera loyalist be dissatisfied with? It’s not like he wanted 500 county magistrates or 500 county guards.
Jia Xu continued: "What else are you asking for? Say it together!"
Xi Zhong said: "Since Yuyang County is a pilot project, I do not ask the government to allocate funds to Yuyang County, but I request that the fiscal revenue of Yuyang County be reduced to meet the needs of resettling the people."
Jia Xu nodded and said: "Okay!"
"I still need the support of the money shop. I remember that the government's policy of benefiting farmers has not stopped. As the governor of Yuyang County, I want to loan 3 billion first to buy cattle and iron farm tools, and use the Yuyang steel factory and The salt fields are used as collateral, after all, the sharpening of the sword will make it easier for the woodcutter. If there is no Qianpu loan support, the Yuyang County pilot mission will definitely fail!" Xi Zhong said.
