As far as Jia Cong knows, Daqing's redundant officials are already quite obvious.
The imperial examinations every three years have Jinshi ranging from 200 to 300, and the accumulated number exceeds 8,000, or even more than 10,000.
Taking twenty years as a node, the number of new Jinshi students in every twenty years is at least 1,600.
The lowest-level county-level units in Daqing are just over 1,000, which means that the county magistrate needs to be replaced in twenty years to barely achieve the supply and demand balance.
But this is simply impossible to achieve!
A Jinshi who was in the last twenty-year node, or even a veteran Jinshi who was in the last twenty-year node, may still remain in a position.
There are carrots and pits in the officialdom, and as time goes by, there are naturally more monks and less porridge.
But not only is a Jinshi, but also a larger number of Juren, who can also become an official.
Although relatively mature rules have been formed in the officialdom, unless the juren is in a state of affairs or has strong support from noble people, it will end up reaching the fourth-rank magistrate.
But that's true. Many juren with outstanding abilities will not be a problem to become county magistrates.
Not to mention, although the Daqing nobles' group has been declining, its power cannot be underestimated at all. Whether it is due to titles, embassy, or entering the officialdom through backdoors, the number of them is not small every year.
As a result, the situation of Daqing's red official gradually became worse.
But on the other hand, Daqing is extremely short of professional and technical officials!
Because the Four Books and Five Classics are the mainstream, all officials who enter the officialdom through the imperial examination are all in the category of liberal arts and philosophy according to modern standards. It cannot be said that they do not have geniuses with strong abilities, but their basic qualities are just like that, and their execution and action are very good.
generally.
Especially when encountering more professional problems, I can only turn to the masters around me, which is also the basis for the widespread existence of Master Qianliang and Master Jianming.
In other words, both the Ministry of Revenue, Ministry of Justice and Ministry of Works, among the six central ministries, are extremely lacking in professional talents. On the other hand, the number of officials who entered the imperial examination is so large that it is difficult to arrange.
Not only the six central ministries, but also the local provincial level, as well as the prefecture level and county level yamen lack professional talents in this area.
Because of the social environment and the dominance of public opinion, the children of nobles enter the officialdom, or be kind to the official, or go through the back door to enter the officialdom. Unless they have a family background, most of them are even worse than those of officials who entered the imperial examination.
Jia Cong's purpose of transforming clanology is to enable all students to learn practical abilities. Even if they cannot enter the imperial examination normally, they have the opportunity to enter the officialdom because of their professional talents, and they can also gain a foothold because of their professional talents and become a department.
An indispensable talent.
No matter how bad it is, relying on the professional knowledge you have learned, it is absolutely no problem to be able to survive after learning from the family.
At the same time, the speed of professional knowledge training can be accelerated much, and qualified junior talents can be cultivated within one year. At least it is not a problem to gain a foothold at the bottom of the yamen. What Jia Cong and the Jia clan in Beijing need is this kind of talent training speed.
.
As for students with talent for imperial examinations, the number is extremely rare after all, and the clan will arrange them in a class that specializes in the imperial examinations. Jia Cong may also achieve fine training in small class teaching.
Such a clear classification of subjects can help you to explore the talent of students in the clan, which is quite suitable for the Jia family in the capital.
The noble family doesn’t have to focus on taking the imperial examination path. There are too many channels to enter the officialdom. Arranging children with special talents to enter certain yamen will not cause much dissatisfaction or rebound.
Even if he hadn't been worried about causing trouble too much, he would have planned to establish military courses within the clan to teach the content of marching and formation.
Jia Cong saw these in the letters of the two generations of Rong Guogong. The description of the various details and arrangements of the marching and war was quite straightforward and clear. It was considered a practical textbook compiled by the two generations of Rong Guogong based on their many years of experience in marching and war.
'.
In this era, it can be said that the "war notes" left by the two generations of dukes are definitely priceless treasures and the core secret of a stable inheritance of a general.
It’s just a pity that the master has long been abandoned. Master Zheng’s second master took the path of scholars and did not look down on the ‘war notes’ left by the two generations of dukes.
Fortunately, Mrs. Wang is basically illiterate and disdained the collection of books in the mansion. Otherwise, the "war notes" of the two generations of Duke Rong would have fallen into Wang Ziteng's hands long ago.
Perhaps, the Wang family could become a real family of generals, just like the generals and generals of the Song Dynasty.
Jia Cong had no idea of cherishing himself, but the "war notes" left by the two generations of Duke Rong were too sensitive, otherwise it would be better as a textbook for the clan and military science.
At present, Jia Cong did not intend to attract too much attention, so he could only change the military subject to martial arts course. In addition to teaching the skills of fist, foot and weapon, it was simply leading troops and fighting skills, which was considered a means of training for grassroots officers.
Well, it's quite rough.
He vaguely revealed these to Jia Rong, but he just didn't know if this kid figured it out.
"Don't worry, Uncle Cong, I will hold on to the clan members!"
Seeing that Jia Cong was determined, Jia Rong did not dare to continue talking, and instead talked about the expansion of the clan school.
The entire Ningrong Street is basically controlled by the Jia clan, including the land, and the land of the clan is no exception.
Jia Cong intends to add "miscellaneous studies" subjects in the gentry. At present, the gentry territory is naturally insufficient, so he needs to expand the playground, teaching hall, canteen teacher dormitory and other buildings.
As the acting clan leader, most of the money for expanding clan studies was paid by Ning Mansion, and some were paid by Rong Mansion.
Jia Cong didn't care about these things. After asking someone to draw architectural drawings as required, he threw them all over the matters to Jia Rong for handling.
If you do well, you will naturally give enough benefits in the future, and even allow this guy to play a more important role in some future things.
If you can't do it well, then be honest with the contemporary patriarch of Ning Mansion. As long as you can help stabilize the Jia clan in the capital, it will be a contribution.
After seeing off Jia Rong, Jia Cong came to the next friend bookstore. Except for those who had already followed Lian Er to study, all the others were here.
"I don't say much nonsense, I know that I have established a branch office!"
Jia Cong said directly: "Next, I plan to hold a banquet for a house. You can help me deliver the invitation!"
As he said that, he took out a stack of exquisite invitations written from the grid under the desk and assigned them to his younger brothers.
"Okay, go and do your own business, don't be lazy!"
After the explanation, Jia Cong waved his hand and drove away his younger brother. Seeing Xue Pan staying still, he showed that he was reluctant to say something, he said angrily: "If you have something to say something, just say something and let it go. Look at you, you can see that
Can't go on!"
"hey-hey……"
Xue Pan smiled embarrassedly and said, "It's such a boss. Our family has come to Beijing. In addition to writing off the accounts of the Office of the Internal Affairs, my sister also has tasks!"
The royal family had long stipulated that in addition to hiring and selecting concubines, all daughters of famous officials and famous families were named Damen, and were selected as princesses and attendants to school, and were used as positions to praise the good of talents.
"In other words, Sister Xue is qualified to enter the palace to participate in the selection of Princess Princess to attend school. What did Mrs. Xue think?"
Jia Cong almost forgot that there was still this in the original work. Xue Baochai did have a chance to enter the palace. She only mentioned it in the original work, but did not mention it again later.
Daqing is a Han Dynasty, not a feudal slave country like my Qing Dynasty. Once a person like Xue Baochai is selected, he will be a veritable princess and princesses. He is also of a rank, and he can be considered a female official in the palace.
Xue Pan felt depressed with a beef cattle, and the boss slaps "Sister Xue" at once, which made him, the older brother, seem to be shorter than his sister.
"My mother wants to ask her sister to enter the palace as a princess and princess to accompany her for a few years. After she comes out, she can marry a promising official child. My sister also has this idea!"
Xue Pan smiled embarrassedly and said, "To be honest, our family is a little jealous of my aunt!"
"Tell me all this, could it be that Sister Xue entered the palace and had an accident?"
My younger brother, Jia Cong, was not polite and asked directly: "What's wrong with me? I can help you naturally won't be stingy!"
The implication is that if you can’t help, don’t blame me!
"Before, my mother put all her hopes on her aunt's side and gave her a lot of money. I hope her aunt can help clear the relationship!"
Xue Pan said this, angry and helpless, and said depressedly: "There was no accurate letter. Recently, Yuanchun's cousin was not promoted to the palace concubine. My mother went to beg for my aunt again, but she gave me 30,000 taels of silver notes.
, There is still no news!”
Tsk, Mrs. Wang is really good at making money!
Without listening to the situation below, Jia Cong knew that something was wrong, and it was the work of Mrs. Wang.
"Some time ago, the chief supervisor of the palace, Eunuch Dai, went to Ning Mansion to have a drink. I also spent money to ask Eunuch Dai to help check it out. Only then did I realize that my aunt had not signed up for my sister at all!"
Speaking of this, Xue Pan looked indignant and said unhappy: "In order to ask my aunt for help, my mother took out 50,000 taels of silver, but this was the result..."
Jia Cong knew it when he heard it. It was probably because Mrs. Wang didn't want to sign up for Xue Baochai, but she didn't trust her.
Since Zhou Rui was arrested and exiled, Mrs. Wang has lost control of the situation outside the mansion. Not only was she deceived by the manager and the head of the village, but she just wanted to do nothing, but Xue Baochai's affairs were probably delayed.
of.
"Don't be depressed, you should be glad!"
Jia Cong's sudden words made Xue Pan confused and wondered: "What does the boss mean? Why can't I understand it?"
"Didn't you have a life lawsuit in Jinling? You are sure that you have completely eliminated it. Is there any problem?"
Jia Cong asked directly: "Also, how did the prefect of Jinling decide the case? Have you understood it in advance..."
