Words like recruitment and team were a bit unfamiliar to those present, but they all could roughly understand what Xia Shang meant.
Feng Qi sat in the corner, rarely showing some energy and curiosity: "Sir, do you mean to recruit talents?"
Xia Shang nodded.
"Could it be from the people outside?"
Xia Shang still nodded.
Feng Qi frowned: "Sir, I'm afraid this is not a good thing."
"Why?"
"Since the establishment of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, there has never been a history of recruiting people from all over the world. This is inconsistent with the old rule. The people of the Metropolitan Procuratorate are all personally selected by the chief executive and have been trained since childhood. They have been away from Beijing for more than ten years.
Zaifang can be retained for great use. Only such people can be trusted absolutely. Although those people who are born in a rough world may have some abilities, but they are unruly by nature and disobey discipline. If they rashly join the Metropolitan Procuratorate, they will not be able to be entrusted with important tasks.
, but it will cause many problems.”
Everyone present also agreed with what Feng Qi said, and they all agreed, indicating that this matter should be discussed in the long run.
Xia Shang had his own reasons: "Since it is the new Metropolitan Procuratorate, those old rules and regulations should be abandoned. In the past, people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate needed several years of training to become successful, but now we don't have a few years or more than ten years.
Years of time. The current situation in the capital is delicate, and we will be able to use our capabilities soon. If the emperor has orders, but we are short of manpower, wouldn’t we have failed the holy will? As far as we are concerned, the most important task is to expand manpower.
Recruit some truly capable people from the world to expand our strength."
"But..." Fang Cheng interrupted in a low voice, but was quickly interrupted by Xia Shang.
"Needless to say, I have made up my mind on this matter. I have called you here not to discuss whether the plan will be implemented, but to discuss what manpower you each need and how many manpower you need. Each of you can report the number so that I can be prepared."
Upon hearing this, everyone frowned even more tightly.
Feng Qi received the message: "The State Education Department has nothing to do, and I am used to being alone. There is no need to appoint someone for the State Education Department."
Fang Cheng added: "The Iron Arm Division is fully staffed and there is no need to recruit new people."
Bai Lingjiao said: "Lingxiu Division cannot tolerate the recklessness in the world."
It can be seen that no one agrees with Xia Shang's opinion.
Xia Shang's expression was indifferent: "Since everyone has no idea, let's just set a target directly. For this expansion of manpower, each department of the Twelve Divisions must have no less than ten people. No matter what your reasons are,
, the New Metropolitan Procuratorate must look like the New Metropolitan Procuratorate, and there must be newcomers. If you don’t become bigger and stronger, you will be forgotten by the world in a short time. Don’t forget, I heard that the Prince’s side still has
If we maintain a 'New Metropolitan Procuratorate', sooner or later there will be a battle between us and that fake organization. If we continue step by step and do not make changes, sooner or later we will be wiped out by the fake organization."
Everyone was stunned. This was the first time they saw Xia Shang express such a strong stance. Even Chunjiao looked at Xia Shang in confusion, feeling that there was a deeper meaning behind this decision.
Xia Shang didn't seem to want to waste too much time on this topic, nor did he give everyone any chance to give their opinions, and quickly began to discuss the details of recruitment matters.
The ensuing discussion was without any disturbance, and now the big guys didn't care about these details at all, it was just one person who said it.
An hour later, everyone who came had left, leaving only some people behind to help Xia Shang with his next work.
Seeing that there was no one else in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Chunjiao came to Xia Shang's side and asked doubtfully: "Is your Excellency today going to knock down the mountain and shake off the tigers, or is it to see if they listen to your opinion?"
"None of them." Xia Shang stood under the eaves, looking at the falling snow outside all day long, with a solemn expression.
"Then why, sir? To recruit a few people, you can't be so tough, right?"
"These are not just a few people. They obey me on the surface, but who knows what choices they will make at critical moments? Giving them some troublesome people born in the world can also keep them busy."
"Get busy?"
"Whether it is the State Education Department, the Lingxiu Department or the Iron Arm Department, they are all small groups that have been closed for many years. Fang Cheng and Bai Ling, after many years, must have firmly grasped the core strength in their hands. The entry of new people
It will dilute the power and control between them.
This is like a cup of sugar water. After adding a cup of water, the sweetness of the sugar water will be weakened. If you keep adding water to the sugar water, the sweetness will continue to weaken and eventually disappear. This recruitment is not the last. I will
New people are constantly being added.
or
After a long time, they will find that they cannot control the situation. And it will become difficult for them to escape me and control a certain power of the Twelve Divisions. In the end, they will feel powerless and have to follow the trend and truly obey my orders.
"
Chunjiao seemed to understand but vaguely understood, and asked: "If everyone in the Jianghu joins the Metropolitan Procuratorate, will you be sure to control those people?"
"It's not me who controls people, but the rules. On a larger scale, the Metropolitan Procuratorate is like a closed country. It's not the emperor who really controls the life and death of the people, but the law. No matter what kind of birth a person is, their words and deeds
As long as there are rules to follow and laws to check, it is very simple to control.”
Chunjiao couldn't understand these things, but she always felt that these words coming from this man made sense.
As a martial artist, I always think that the law that can touch the limits of martial arts is the supreme and silent truth in the world. However, Chunjiao has been with Xia Shang for a long time and understands that besides martial arts, there are many other things that are elusive about the supreme principles in the world.
Things, and this man seems to know all these elusive things.
Xia Shang looked at Xue and didn't notice Xia Chunjiao's expression.
However, Chunjiao noticed the melancholy in Xia Shang's eyes and was a little confused, thinking: "What else can make this man who knows everything so sad?"
"Sir, what are you worried about?"
Xia Shang pointed to the sky.
At this moment, there is heavy snow in the sky, and the cold wind is clear. Under the confusion of flying snow, the ancient city of Kyoto, which stretches for hundreds of miles, seems to be shrouded in a lingering haze. The sky is covered with clouds and there is no light. I can’t remember that there was a day.
I haven't seen the sun in how many days.
"this day……"
Chunjiao also looked at the sky, and naturally understood what Xia Shang was worried about. She smiled and said with relief: "The so-called impermanence of heaven, the strange flying snow in recent days is indeed worrying. But we are all mortals, even if heaven
If there are no storms, what can we do in vain? Instead of worrying about the weather, it is better to think more about the current problems, why bother..."
"Why worry in vain?"
"Uh... Sir, that's not what I meant."
"Half a month ago, I didn't take this weather seriously. But now, the snow that persists all day has reached the point where I can't turn a blind eye. It seems to indicate something disturbing.
