After asking several times, no one else came forward to challenge for a higher position.
Jia Zhengjin looked around at the pitifully few civil and military ministers in the palace, and thought to himself that this was the problem of talent shortage!
"So, there are only three challengers now?" Jia Zhengjin stood up, "Pailin wants to challenge Wolf for the position of general; Eden and Amber want to challenge Gunter for the position of navy commander. Do you have any objections? Yes.
If so, bring it up now."
"Lord Keen!" Seeing everyone's silence, the Minister of Personnel, Old Harlin, stood up and said, "I oppose Amber's challenge to the position of Navy Commander!"
"Father?!" Amber was happy to see that no one opposed him. Unexpectedly, his biological father suddenly stood up, which caught him off guard.
"Oh?" Jia Zhengjin was also quite surprised. He didn't expect that the old Harlin would oppose his son. "Why did Minister Harin object?"
"Yes! Father, why do you object?" Amber asked anxiously.
Old Harlem didn't even look at his son. He saluted Jia Zhengjin respectfully and said, "Amber is not capable enough. In my opinion, he is not qualified to serve as deputy commander of the Navy. Mr. Keen's love is also because of Mrs. Tina."
Face, take care of this idiot brother Amber. The most important thing in being a human being is self-knowledge. If you don’t even know how much you weigh, you will only make your generosity laughable!"
"Father, how can you look down on me like this?" Amber was naturally uncomfortable being belittled by his biological father. "I don't know how diligently I practice every day, and my progress is rapid! You just farm the land and never care about me.
How can you belittle combat skills without knowing the truth?"
"My dearest son, Mo Ruofu, I know very well how many pounds you have!" Old Harlin said expressionlessly.
"you……"
Seeing that the fathers were quarreling in the palace, Jia Zhengjin thought to himself that Old Harlin deserved recognition. At least in official matters, he was pragmatic and would not favor his son. For those who doted on their children, even if they knew that they were incompetent.
, at least he won’t jump out and object so firmly.
"Okay!" He interrupted the conversation between the father and son to prevent them from further arguing and hurting their feelings. He looked around and continued to ask, "Is there anyone else who objects?"
There was silence in the palace.
Jia Zhengjin waited for a few seconds to make sure that no one came forward to object again, and immediately announced: "Although Minister Harlem is opposed to Amber's challenge to the position of Navy Commander, the majority of the people at the scene are in favor, so the objection is invalid!"
Old Harlin was neither happy nor sad when he heard this and nodded expressionlessly.
Amber was overjoyed and excitedly turned to his wife Maggie and made a victory gesture. Maggie responded with a smile, not too excited.
Jia Zhengjin continued: "Since someone has raised the challenge, I will immediately start arranging the content of the competition! The military job competition will be divided into three categories: personal bravery, battlefield knowledge and troop leadership ability. The challenger must win all of them before he can take his place!
Moreover, personal bravery is the threshold of the test and the most important round. If the challenger loses in this round, he will automatically lose the qualification!"
"Lord Keen, this is a bit unfair to the challenger!" After hearing this rule, Prime Minister Gass stood up and said, "For the challenger, a loss is a total loss, and a win for the challenged is a complete victory.
…”
"The merit-based system selects overall strength!" Jia Zhengjin said calmly, "The challenger must have the ability to surpass the incumbent in all aspects, otherwise excellence in one aspect is not enough to replace it! Just like personal bravery, no matter how strong you are,
Insufficient command ability, lack of management ability cannot make the army obey, and no one executes the military order or the execution is poor, which is fatal to the war! Therefore, it must be surpassed in overall strength to be qualified to replace it! Furthermore, every position must be surpassed in overall strength!
You are only allowed to be challenged once a year, and any further challengers need to apply every other year.”
"Lord Keen, why is this?" Gass asked in confusion.
"The purpose of selecting outstanding talents is to do something!" Jia Zhengjin glanced at everyone and said seriously, "If there are no limits, then there will be more people to challenge. If the current employees deal with challenges all day long, how can they focus on their work? So all the time
It is only allowed once a year. Regardless of whether they successfully retain their position, current incumbents can have a whole year to govern and prove their abilities!"
"Master Keen has thought deeply, and I admire him!" Gass said sincerely.
"Are there any other questions?" Jia Zhengjin asked the civil and military ministers below loudly.
Everyone, look at me and I look at you. It seems that we have no objection to Jia Zhengjin’s regulations.
But at this time Eden stood up: "Lord Keen, I have a question!"
"you say!"
"You just said that incumbents can only accept one challenge within a year!" Eden looked up at him seriously, "So now Amber and I challenge Commander Gunter at the same time. How should we handle this?"
Upon hearing this, Amber immediately looked at Jia Zhengjin, which was what he wanted to know.
"This is very simple," Jia Zhengjin said with a smile, "Commander Gunter can only accept the challenge from one person, so before that, there needs to be a competition between the challengers, and the winner will be qualified to compete one-on-one with Commander Gunter!
However, it is relatively simple between challengers. It is purely a contest of force. The winner is qualified to challenge, while the loser returns to his or her post and loses the right to challenge this year!"
"But Lord Keen, why do you need to win all three games to challenge Commander Gunter? It's unfair for the challenger to decide the winner or loser in one game?" Eden asked.
"Since we need to win all three games with Commander Gunter, you challengers have already lost in the battle of force, so how can you continue with the next two games? If there is no doubt, then I will immediately arrange a challenge and decide the outcome within today, so that
Everyone takes office as soon as possible and contributes to Holy Dragon City! Are there any questions?"
"No problem!!" The civil and military officials responded in unison.
"Okay!" After reaching a consensus, Jia Zhengjin turned to look at Gass, "Prime Minister, you are responsible for issuing an official document to inform the whole city and announce the list of the first officials of Shenglong City! The merit selection system must also be clearly explained to the outside world!
And notified the whole city that in addition to indispensable teams such as fortresses and patrols, anyone can come to watch the challenge of the general and navy commander! There is an additional stipulation that if the challenger fails in the personal bravery and the second competition
In the case of victory and only one loss, a referendum can be held if the current official being challenged weakly agrees! A challenger who can obtain more than three-quarters of the votes can also be successfully promoted and replace the current official!"
"Old minister, take your orders!" Gass took the pen and paper sent by the soldier and immediately started drafting the official document.
"Minister Bakla!" Jia Zhengjin lowered his head and looked at the array of civil servants below.
"What are your orders, Master Keen?" Bakla stood up immediately.
"As the Minister of the Interior, I leave the competition venue to you!" Jia Zhengjin said, "There are many open areas in Shenglong City. Is there no problem for you to find the most suitable competition venue?"
"I will do my best!" Bakla responded respectfully.
