"This matter is still the boy Meng Lang. He did it without reporting it to the envoy first."

In the hall, Li Xiao, who had quickly changed his clothes, rushed to the courtesy of County Magistrate Liu. After the commotion, he took the initiative to ask for a crime first.

He knew in his heart that the sudden arrival of County Magistrate Liu must have something to do with the township meeting.

Although Xiangyaotang is actually a spontaneous non-governmental organization for villagers, it is an organization after all. He has reported to the county for a cooperative before.

"Sanlang, you did this well. There are wise men in the village. As a county parents, I failed to discover it in time and recommended talents to the superiors. This is a dereliction of duty."

The magistrate Liu was very polite to Li Xiao, not only because Li Xiao did a good job this time, but the key was that Li Xiao also had a relationship with the fourth son of the magistrate Liu's family, but Li Xiao also had a good relationship with Xue Rengui's son. He was Xue Rengui's brother-in-law, and he was also his family.

"Sanlang, I was shocked when I heard about the changes in Lanxi Township this time in the county. Tell me, how did you do all this?"

County Magistrate Liu also came straight to the point, and this time he came to learn from the scriptures.

"In fact, we are just saving ourselves. Natural disasters are ruthless, and there is no rain for a long time. If we don't save ourselves, we will only sigh. I just took the lead, and everything is all working together."

County Magistrate Liu laughed a few times.

He had been in Lantian for some time, but he didn't know the situation of Lanxi. Not to mention Lanxi, it was the entire Lantian County. Although it was the capital of the capital and under the feet of the emperor, it was always a place with poor and remote mountains because it was in the Qinling Mountains.

The ancients said that poor mountains and bad waters caused troubled people to emerge, which is roughly correct.

The more people in the valley are, the more they manage, the more vicious they become. In the past, there were many deaths in the fight for water. Li Xiao said that everyone would save themselves and work together. This is true, but it is impossible to say that there is no important person pushing all of this.

County Magistrate Liu was not here to hold accountable. He wanted to know how Li Xiao did all this so that a group of unruly people could do this. He wanted to know and then push this method to all townships in the county.

If he can make Lantian County do what Lanxi Township is like this during this severe drought, and ensure that there will be some harvest this year and that there will be no hungry people in the summer, then the achievements will be great.

At that time, I could write a memorial to the court and submit this experience. At that time, I would not only get excellent assessments and evaluations, but I could even directly be promoted to an official position.

"Method, what is the method that has made Lan Xi have the current situation? Please don't hide it from me!"

"How dare you?" Li Xiao waved his hand quickly.

Some things are difficult, but they are actually not easy to say. Judging from the situation in Lanxi Township, if Li Xiao had not had a good reputation and high prestige here, it would be extremely difficult to take the lead in doing this.

In Lanxi Township, more than 1,200 households, of which 800 have joined Li Xiao's cooperative, and many other children have studied at Li Xiao's Lanxi Academy.

However, people are also tenants of Li Xiao's family.

Under such circumstances, Li Xiao could respond to his requests, not to mention that Li Xiao was so proactive and enthusiastic, and did things in an orderly and fair manner.

The township meeting hall was not his own hall, but elected members of parliament and directors. Even in handling production and disaster relief, he also took out his own good land for everyone to divide the landlord. If it weren't for the leading position of the biggest landlord, how could the landlords in the other few Lanxi Township be willing?

A snake cannot do without a head, and you must have role models in doing things.

Li Xiao took the lead and acted fairly, so that everyone would be willing to obey.

To be honest, even if he told the county magistrate truthfully about Lanxi Township, the county magistrate may not be able to implement it in other townships.

"Sanlang, you have a very good relationship with my Shiro. You are also close to my sister's son Xue Wulang. As for me, I am both your parents' official, and you can call myself your elder, right?"

County Magistrate Liu smiled gently and said, "This is playing the emotional card."

"In fact, the key to the change in Lanxi Township today is the township meeting hall, and the key to the township meeting hall is the township autonomy. It cannot be assigned by the county to manage it, but the villagers themselves have to elect representatives of their trust." Li Xiaodao.

"Just build a township meeting hall and sign a township convention?" The magistrate of Liu County did not believe it.

Things are naturally not that simple, but some things are hard to explain. It is difficult to do if there is no one with a certain prestige in the village to take the lead.

"Sanlang, you are very talented, especially after this incident, which made me see your talent. Such talent is really a waste to stay in the countryside. You should do something. If you want, I am willing to recommend you to record the county and come to the county to help me. After recording the department and making some achievements, it will be easy to transfer to the official career, and this is also a rank of origin."

The magistrate Liu County is still very sincere and he recommended Li Xiao as a recorder in Lantian County as soon as he opened his mouth.

County records are the biggest move that Liu County Magistrate can do.

County records were officials in the Tang Dynasty.

There were many officials in the local prefectures and counties in the Tang Dynasty, but the pure officials were only a few officials such as Zuo and Shi, while more officials, such as Bai Zhi, holding swords, and prisons, were actually Xu, that is, official servants.

Although the Tang Dynasty separated officials and officials through the flow of foreign officials, there were still a large number of officials in addition to the flow of foreign officials, and they were miscellaneous responsibilities.

The clerk system of the Tang Dynasty was actually composed of three major parts: internal officials, external officials, and miscellaneous officials.

The grassroots organization of the Tang Dynasty, the county was the lowest-level organizational structure. The county magistrate was the highest commander of the county and was in charge of affairs of all sizes and big and small in the county. Due to the busy official duties, several subordinates were set up, including county magistrates, chief clerks, county magistrates, and county magistrates, and were in charge of affairs.

Among them, the chief clerk was in charge of the investigation and corrected the violations.

The county recorder is the deputy of the county chief clerk, who assists the chief clerk in handling matters that are not illegal. This is a middle class between officials and officials.

There were seven levels of counties in the Tang Dynasty. Lantian was the capital county with a higher grade. The county chief clerk was the ninth rank, and there were two directors under the chief clerk, but there were no grades.

To put it bluntly, the job responsibilities of county officials are generally to check all administrative affairs related to the government. All copywriting or issuance of the county government must go through the checking of the record. This position is generally equivalent to the director of the county office in later generations, and is very important and professional.

In Lantian County, there are only county magistrates, county magistrates, chief clerks, and county magistrates. Among these four major leaders, county magistrates are the highest. Therefore, as soon as Liu County magistrates opens his mouth, he recommends Li Xiao to do the record, which is considered to be a very expensive investment.

According to common practice, the selection of county registrations generally requires people from the state to choose the first person to be a fifth-rank or above in the state. If there is no suitable person, then the number of persons below the sixth-rank or below, or even a white diary is fine.

County records do not require selection by the Ministry of Personnel of the court, but are selected and recruited by the local governments themselves. Therefore, the magistrate of Liu County said that he could recommend Li Xiao as the director. He wrote a letter of recommendation and as long as the provincial government does not reject it, there would be no problem. Generally, the provincial government will not reject such a small appointment.

Logically speaking, the magistrate of Liu County felt that Li Xiao should be willing. Li Xiao was just a landlord in the village. Although he had a foreign grade, it was just an empty title. Besides, the foreign grade was actually useless. If he had a real position and had some power, he would have to receive some salary.

Li Xiao had a cooperative before and a township meeting hall, which made County Magistrate Liu think that Li Xiao was a person who wanted to manage the affairs. Then the county department could be considered the fifth in charge of the county, and he was better than the chairman of the township meeting hall.

Then, to his surprise, Li Xiao refused directly.

Li Xiao really doesn't want to be an official. As the saying goes, you have to be controlled by others. Once you enter the officialdom, you are as deep as the sea. How can you be so free and easy now?

He is more afraid of the officialdom, and it is not easy for people without roots to enter the muddy waters.

This is great now. Staying in the countryside and building a cooperative can actually manage hundreds of households. Now he has set up a village meeting hall, and he has the final say in Lanxi Township.

He is not a person in the officialdom, but he is better than in the officialdom. Lanxi and the five people all have to follow his arrangements. Isn’t this more comfortable than recording a county?

Besides, if he really wants to become an official, he would agree to the court's conscript last time. Wouldn't it be better to be a record officer in the Eastern Expedition military camp? It would be a real seventh-rank official, who is a few rank higher than the direct boss and chief clerk of the county's recorder, and the chief clerk is only a ninth-rank.

"Sanlang, don't bother with this county's small officials. You may not know that among the officials in the court, the officials are a special position. They are not as good as officials such as officials, such as officials, such as officials, such as officials, such as officials, such as officials, such as officials, such as prisons, and those who hold swords, will have the opportunity to be promoted to officials."

The diversion of officials is a barrier that has been formed for many years. Officials are not connected with officials, so there is no chance to be an official. This is a common practice in the officialdom.

But sometimes there are exceptions, and this record is an exception. Although the county recorder has no rank or rank, the county recorder has the special nature of his work, which makes him the fifth in charge of the mansion in daily life. Therefore, as long as he does well, the county recorder has the right opportunity to be promoted to a rank official.

Although the chance of promotion is not high, and you have to climb up step by step, which is much slower than other officials of your background, at least this is an excellent opportunity to enter the official career.

If you are an assistant or a historical member, you will be rolling in the sea of ​​officials for the rest of your life, and you will never be an official. If you are a prisoner and hold a knife, you will not be on the stage.

"Thank you for your love, I'm sorry, I can't accept it."

County Magistrate Liu was disgraced and looked a little unfair. He was rejected when he came to ask for help.

"The county lord is not willing to give face to the county lord, but he is really free and unwilling to the officialdom. The county lord does not have to force him to be free. If the county lord has something to do, but if the county lord asks, Xiaoding will not refuse."

After all, the magistrate of Liu County is the magistrate, and his parents are in the county. Not to mention that Li Xiao and Liu County Magistrate Liu Wen have a good relationship, even if he doesn't have this relationship, he cannot be easily offended.

If you want to make a statement, you have to make a statement. He is unwilling to be an official, but if you don’t become an official, you can still help the county magistrate give advice.
