Reborn: Imperial Officer Promotion Guide

Two weeks passed without any incident.

Noor Ghana sat at his desk and quietly processed the policy documents submitted to him.

It has been a long time since I have seen a policy proposal submitted by Helheim.

However, Noor Ghana did not take it lightly. He tried his best to find suspicious documents in the policy proposals submitted by other departments.

In line with the attitude of rather killing someone by mistake than letting him go, any policy proposal submitted by any department would be rejected as long as there was even the slightest suspicion of Helheim's involvement.

He was determined to make Helheim incapable of doing anything and never have the chance to turn things around.

Not only that, Nur Ghana also sent his confidants to monitor Helheim and related suspicious elements' every move 24 hours a day.

This was to prevent Helheim from secretly colluding with people from other departments or doing anything else.

Noor Ghana looked at his secretary, Plegor

"How is it? Has that person done anything recently?"

"No, we have been monitoring for almost a month and have not found anything yet."

“Hmm, is that so…?”

Sure enough, the guy who dared to challenge me was no ordinary person. He didn't reveal any flaws at all, so it was not easy to find his weak spot.

Nur Gana also secretly sent people to investigate the disappearance of senior political assistant Badda.

In the end, they returned empty-handed, with no trace or evidence of Helheim's involvement found.

"Sir, do you want us to take the initiative?" the secretary suggested.

"Stupid. The other party has been lying dormant for a while just to lure us into making the first move. How could I give him any chance to counterattack? As long as we remain as still as a mountain, he will be helpless."

Helheim boasted that he would make Nur Ghana kneel before him within two months.

He acted as if he was sure of victory, just to make me anxious and then set a trap for him.

Noor Gana was sure that this must be Hel Helm's plan.

He won't be fooled.

"Call Minister Goering of the Government Department."

"Yes."

Soon a fat, smiling old man hurried into the office.

In terms of age, Goering is a dozen years older than Nur Ghana, but as a subordinate, Goering is well versed in the ways of officialdom and will not refuse any order given by Nur Ghana.

This is the model of a general officer.

"Ha...Ha...Are you calling me?" Minister Goering was panting, obviously having run all the way here.

"Well, it's nothing serious. I just haven't seen any policy proposals submitted by Helheim recently. I wonder if something has happened."

"Ah... Is that what you're talking about? Well, they were all trivial proposals, so I've already refuted them one by one."

"I see……"

Noor Ghana couldn't help but smile.

Noor Ghana did not disclose the humiliation he suffered. After all, it was not a glorious thing and it would be embarrassing if it got out.

He also didn't want to be seen as taking revenge.

As for standing up and rejecting Helheim's policy proposal, it was ultimately just Minister Goering's personal behavior.

Noor Ghana had only slightly expressed his dislike for Helheim in some private occasions and tried to guide him a little. Now that he saw that the Minister of Government Affairs was so understanding, he naturally would not break the window paper.

Don't give him anything openly, but reward him something secretly - this is also Noor Ghana's usual practice.

"Really? You've worked so hard. By the way, the Helheim Intermediate Administrative Officer has been here for over a month, right? It seems like he hasn't produced any work results yet?"

"Yes, it's a pity. Not only did he not produce any results, but he participated in the Ministry of Resources' major review and often took time out to go out privately to provide relief to the people. He spent all his energy on unimportant things. It's really a headache! I'm now considering how to deal with him..."

"Huh... Really? I thought he was such an excellent political official? Turns out he can't even do his job?"

Nur Ghana smiled in his heart. The blockade measures during this period seemed to have taken effect.

Failure to complete the established work goals will not weigh even a few ounces if not weighed on the scale, and will not even weigh a thousand pounds if weighed on the scale.

The key lies in the internal handling methods of each department.

This time, after calling Goering to his presence for some testing, he was finally certain that the highest official of the State Department was on his side.

Then it would be reasonable to use the failure to achieve work goals as a breakthrough point and let Goering, in his capacity as Minister of State Affairs, punish Helheim.

But how to punish?

Directly dismissing him from his post and expelling Helheim from the East Territory would not only give him an excuse to accuse him, but would also make it difficult to dispel the hatred in his heart.

Noor Ghana plans to use his position to take personal revenge and torture Helheim to insanity step by step.

As the highest official in East Territory, this is his world, and he has plenty of ways to make it difficult for a civil servant to survive.

After forcing Helheim to commit suicide, he will be framed with charges and thrown into hell along with his family... No, that is too easy for him. He and his family must be turned into slaves and live a life where they cannot live or die. Only then will Nur Gana be satisfied.

——Please, don't collapse, this is just the beginning.

Noor Ghana thought so from the bottom of his heart, and smiled at Goering in front of him: "Besides this, has Helheim committed any other faults?"

At Noor Gana's hint, Goering immediately understood and looked very angry.

"Of course there are, and a lot of them! I heard that he is still in private contact with the Sons of the Desert outside the city. I suspect that his private relief activities may be an act of aiding the enemy!"

"Oh?! Really? Do you have any evidence?"

The Desert Sultanate has become a vassal of the Empire, and those Sons of the Desert are nominally just wandering refugees, not hostile relations - after all, the war ended long ago.

It is not easy to accuse Helheim of aiding the enemy, but it is still possible to make a big fuss about it.

The prerequisite is to be able to provide decisive evidence.

"No, this is just my guess, but I think we can do something about it. Besides, I heard that when Helheim is working on government affairs, in addition to having his subordinates formulate policy plans, he also drafts policy documents himself."

"Really? This is setting a bad precedent..."

"Yes, the job of a mid-level political official is to manage his subordinates. Helheim may have strong professional skills, but in disguise he is also hindering the growth of his subordinates. Really... How much does he want to stand out!"

"...Hehe, you are such a troublesome subordinate... I understand how hard you've been working. I was wondering if it would be better to let Helheim suffer a little. This would also be for his personal growth."

"Yes, this is also what I am considering now. I am thinking about demoting Helheim temporarily to let him hone his skills at the grassroots level and see what the results are. What do you think?"

“…Hahahaha, so that’s how it is. Then let’s do as you say…” Nur Ghana smiled happily.

It is indeed comfortable to talk to smart people. They will understand everything with just a little hint.

It seemed that he also knew more or less privately that Helheim had offended him.

In this case, Goering's actions during this period made sense - he was cutting ties with Helheim.

Rejecting Helheim's proposal was a sign of goodwill, and he was desperately trying to make up for the political points the Ministry had lost with him.

This is exactly what Noor Ghana wants.

He wished someone could come forward to target Helheim on his behalf.

Since Goering was willing to serve him, Noor Ghana didn't have to take the risk of doing it himself.

If you leave the task to him, everyone will be happy if it is done. But if it is not done, any problems that arise cannot be blamed on you.

Nur Ghana could cut ties with the other party immediately, after all, he did not give any orders.

Everything is done on my own initiative.

When something with a certain degree of risk needs to be done, Noor Ghana always makes sure that he will not become the executor, and instigates his subordinates to step forward and do the work. This is also one of his usual methods of controlling risks.

"By the way, Badda has been missing for a month, and the position of senior political assistant has been vacant for quite a while. It's time to find someone to take over..."

"Sir, do you have any talent you want to use?"

"No, this is a personnel arrangement within the Ministry of Government Affairs. Isn't it fine for you, the minister, to decide on your own?"

"Is this...is this really okay?"

"Of course, don't worry, I'm here with you. Just do whatever you want."

This is Noor Ghana's way of returning a favor.

Senior Political Assistant is a lucrative position and should be appointed directly by the central government.

However, if the acting consul is willing to speak out, it is not impossible for the matter to be resolved within the East Territory.

The State Affairs Department is not a monolithic entity, and many people are eyeing this position. As the minister, Goering must be hoping to promote his confidant to the position.

As long as Noor Ghana is willing to help, this matter can be accomplished.

"As for who will replace Helheim after he is demoted, you will be in charge of arranging this matter. I only have two requirements for the new senior political assistant and the new mid-level political assistant..."

Noor Ghana held up two fingers: "First, you must be obedient, and second, you must be strict enough."

"I understand that this is also to allow young people like Helheim to grow well."

"Hahaha! That's right, it's all for the purpose of training new people."

The two of them smiled at each other, and they were thinking the same thing.

"Then let my political officers Moina and Lasoro take over."

The names of these two people, Noor Ghana, are not unfamiliar.

Both men were known for being tough on their subordinates, especially La Solo.

He used to be an officer, but later he had to leave the front line due to injury. After he was transferred to the East Territory, he would beat his subordinates directly, whether in the workplace or in private, as long as they did something he was not satisfied with.

Although he is strict with his subordinates, he knows how to follow his superiors' wishes. In short, he is a very qualified obedient hound.

As for Senior Political Officer Moina, he is even worse, but he prefers to solve problems with his brain rather than his fists.

He knows very well how to put pressure on his subordinates.

As far as Noor Ghana knows, there are at least dozens of civil servants and secretaries who have suffered mental breakdowns, committed suicide, or resigned voluntarily because of these two people.

"It is a great blessing to be able to be mentored by both of them in turn."

"Yes. I am also looking forward to the future performance of this newcomer, Helheim. I hope he can be reborn under the careful guidance of the two of you."

Hehe, you want to say skinning and bones, right?

"Hahaha... Really? Then let's do as you say. After all, it's all for the growth of the newcomers."

"Yes! Please leave it to me."

Noor Ghana turned the back of the rocking chair towards Goering, and only then did an undisguised evil smile appear on his face.

Helheim, wait and see, I will let you know what happens if you anger me!
