Alien Arms Empire

 Chapter 377 377Being an official also requires examinations

Nangonghong doesn’t know what a civil servant is. But he finally understood that if you want to be a staff member or official here, you have to take an exam.

Datang Group will carefully create questions and provide paper papers to all those who take the exam, and then select officials based on the accuracy of their answers to the questions.

 The questions are all-encompassing, including test questions that examine psychology, as well as high-level questions such as policy policies. Of course, the most common questions are basic questions, which are designed to judge the respondent's basic logic and method of handling government affairs.

The rolls of paper are all produced by Tang Mo, then sealed, sent to the printing house that prints currency, printed and then distributed to various examination rooms. They are escorted by Datang Group's security forces along the way to ensure that they will not be leaked.

These papers were actually copied by Tang Mo from the civil service examination questions of later generations. As Bunas became more modern, these rolls required less and less modification.

To outsiders, this is a sign that Tang Mo attaches great importance to talents, because only if he cares deeply will he personally take part in talent selection and design examination questions.

What’s even more exaggerated is that because the test questions are pragmatic and many of them are very sensitive, every civil service examination will become a hot topic. Question-taking has also become a kind of fun, and it has become a game for many officials in office to test their sensitivity to current affairs.

This kind of rules is completely different from those in Zheng Guo and Dahua, or in other words, it is almost different from the rules in other places in the world.

However, when the non-commissioned officer explained the general pattern of the civil service examination, Nangong Hong's eyes became brighter.

He is a counselor, a traditional counselor. All he has learned in his life is to assist a master who is truly worthy of assistance and help him achieve great things.

What kind of people are worth helping? Of course he has the appearance of a king and the appearance of an emperor!

At this moment, Nangong Hong felt that... he might have really found a king worthy of his allegiance.

Just from this test design alone, Nangong Hong could tell that the other party was a ruthless person who could truly achieve hegemony.

 No joke, examination... is, in a sense, the most fair and effective way to select talents.

At that time, Li Shimin was reforming the imperial examination. He once expressed his pride and emotion, saying that after the reform of the imperial examination was completed, the heroes of the world would be among the people.

What's the meaning? It means that all the talented people in the world are coming to my bowl... well, they are all working for me under my command.

Compared with today's chaotic aristocratic life-long system, aristocratic recommendation system, self-recommendation of talents, collection of visits and other talent selection mechanisms similar to kindergarten classes, the examination is undoubtedly epoch-making.

As long as the examination content is reasonable, this talent selection mechanism can quickly select qualified officials and make these people work for the entire organization immediately.

 It is no exaggeration to say that this kind of selection is absolutely efficient, at least at the level of "officials", it can be said to be the optimal solution.

"Wonderful... the exam... I never thought that it could be reformed like this..." Nangong Hong made a fist with one hand and hammered it on the palm of the other hand, Nangong Hong looked like he suddenly realized it.

 He has been exploring the reform of talent selection. He did not expect that Bunas already had such a complete set of official selection plans.

 Officials, officials, officials are inseparable from each other. As long as capable officials are selected, it will be convenient and easy to promote officials among capable officials.

He didn't know yet that the Datang Group's selection of officials was extremely stringent compared to other places.

 First of all, the senior officials of Datang Group are basically academic. These young officials, as well as some officials who have been retrained at an older age, all graduated from various colleges in Datang.

Most senior officials graduated from night schools and were almost all trained by Tang Mo. These people call themselves the Underworld Party and control most of the official positions in the Datang Group.

Most of them are old officials who were seconded from Bunas and Beiling. They rose up with the Datang Group back then, and they can all be said to be in high positions of authority now.

This group of people is represented by Roger, Tracy, and the original governor of Bunas City. Their composition is relatively complex and their level is average. However, most of them have taken advantage of the rise of Datang Group, so they all have high status now. .

  Another group of officials of the Datang Group call themselves the Light Party, which is completely opposite to the Night Party. They are all regular academics trained by the Datang Group after its rise, and they are all academic masters with excellent academic performance.

They can be said to be problem solvers through and through. They all have relevant professional learning backgrounds, and many of them are even master disciples taught by Tang Mo himself.

Compared with the Night Party members who were hastily trained in night schools, the officials of the Light Party are generally young, professionally matched, have outstanding abilities, and their loyalty is guaranteed.

 However, due to time constraints, they generally have lower official positions and are all specific operators responsible for some practical matters. Therefore, the Bright Party has almost no influence on the decision-making of the Datang Group.

 Although the two parties do not have any disputes over political opinions, they do have considerable differences in origin. They represent different interest groups and have different personal connections and friend circles, so they can be said to be distinct.

The most direct conflict of interest between the two factions now is the difference in the appointment of officials - the Night Party believes that maturity, prudentness and rich experience are the primary considerations in appointing officials, while the Light Party believes that people with solid theory and knowledge should be appointed first, and anything else can be done with experience. accumulate in the future.

Anyway, everyone has their own reasons and the methods they use are fair and aboveboard, so Tang Mo doesn't bother to care about such healthy competition.

He doesn't mind appointing academics, and he doesn't object to wild ideas. As long as they can catch mice, black and white cats are good cats.

 Anyone with a discerning eye has already seen that Datang Group relies on graduates from Bunas University and Longcheng University for its administration. In the future, graduates from these two universities will obviously rise to great heights in the political arena.

At the same time, the Datang Group relied on the Datang Military Academy to get its start in the military field, so graduates from this military academy will obviously become the mainstay of the Datang Group's military power.

It’s just that they don’t quite understand that these schools in the Datang Group have actually undergone a series of new changes subtly.

 First of all, without knowing it, Datang Military Academy has completed the preliminary split and divided into four universities.

These four universities are Datang Military Academy, Datang Army Academy, Datang Aviation Technology Institute and Datang Naval University.

You can tell from the names that the four universities that have been separated have strengthened their professionalism and are scientifically and rationally divided according to the future military services.

 At the same time, Bunas University branched off from Weigang University, which can be regarded as expanding the scale of teaching. Both universities have no special characteristics. They are both comprehensive universities and train about the same few talents.

 Since there is a shortage of qualified talents in the world now, students who have studied in these schools will actually have no worries about finding a job.

 In fact, students who can go to school here are favored by major forces early on, and their futures are already booked before they graduate.

"Master... I'm hungry..." The little book boy who was turned away looked at his master with aggrieved eyes, and spoke in frustration, giving Nangong Hong another fatal blow.

 Nangonghong became even more irritable.

This place was more perfect than he expected, and it was so perfect that it made him despair - he was a strategist, and if the other party had a more professional support team, an outsider like him would be of no use, right?

 You say that your specialty is giving others ideas, but if the other party has exhausted all their options, what use do you have?

Along the way, Nangong Hong has observed many details of Bunas, and these details shocked him as much as a war.

Even, he felt that even ten wars and hundreds of wars would not be as good as the changes this city has brought to the world!

 A new, more efficient bureaucracy; a better, completely reborn infrastructure; and a technological revolution that transcends everything else! And, strong military strength can guarantee that none of this will be violated!

 The person who possesses all of these can be said to be the chosen one, the being who is most likely to achieve eternal hegemony.

To Nangong Hong's chagrin, this man was right in front of him, but he had no chance to meet him, to recommend himself to him, to assist such a monarch, or to help him achieve a feat that no one had done before or after!

"You'd better leave here quickly! If the expo wasn't going to be held, a foreigner like you who doesn't even have a temporary travel voucher would have been arrested long ago." The sergeant watching the gate waved his hand and ended the conversation.

Nangong Hong seemed to have lost his soul. He only recovered a little after walking half a street. He sighed, suddenly feeling hungrier.

　　Rubbing his belly, he looked at the tall buildings in the distance that seemed to be shrouded in mist because of the smoke and dust, and regained his spirits.

With so many powerful technologies and a victorious army, the controller of the Tang Dynasty Group has not yet established a country of his own. It seems that the counselors and ministers around him are just a bunch of mediocre people.

Thinking of this, Nangonghong felt that he could still make a difference here. So he pinched the few coins left in his arms and prepared to find a food stall to see if he could buy the cheapest food...

The two figures, one large and one small, just walked along the street into the distance. As they walked, the book boy complained that his master drank wine along the way and didn't know how to save money. Now he has no money to eat.

Nangong Hong, who was walking in front, kept bragging, saying that he was a genius and that he would definitely ride in that exquisite car when going out in the future.

The two of them argued and walked away, disappearing at the end of the road.
