Chapter 572, Puzzles

"You have also heard about the development outline after Daqian. Let's put it this way, in the next few years, our Dagan will have a lot of materials and money invested in infrastructure construction, and this money will definitely circulate to various departments before my Dagan. Departments, officials at all levels. The money is tens of billions, which can be said to be an incomparable wealth.”

Then Xu Wei sneered and said: "Looking at how the officials of the big man are corrupt, I don't have any confidence in my officials, especially now that the world is about to be unified. In the past, everyone was in a critical moment of survival. Today You are still alive, maybe you will die tomorrow, everyone is thinking about one thing, working hard, struggling hard to survive."

"But now we not only no longer have the crisis of survival, but also have to face the temptation of prosperity and wealth. Although the hearts of the people have not yet dispersed, they have indeed relaxed a lot."

Guo Daxian has the deepest understanding of this point. At the beginning, Bingzhou took in millions of refugees, and there was not enough food to eat. In order to ensure that everyone can survive, Xu Wei limited everyone’s rations. Food was saved and millions of people were saved.

But even at the time when one morsel of food could lead to death from starvation, many officials who worked hard embezzled the food in the granary and killed many refugees.

And these corrupt officials were all caught by Guo Daxian. It can be said that if anyone in the entire imperial court has worse confidence in bureaucrats than Xu Wei, Guo Daxian must be one of them.

Xu Wei continued: "Although I know that they are already 10 times more honest than the officials of the big man, it does not mean that they can resist such a temptation. If we don't rectify it now, I am afraid that we will not be able to do it even if we put in a lot of effort." Pay five cents!"

"Only if the officials who let me work hard have a sense of crisis, then they will have scruples in their hearts, so that our construction funds can be implemented smoothly, and at the same time, these old subordinates can be held back to prevent them from coming to an end!"

People's hearts are unreliable. Xu Wei understands this. How many heroes in wartime have fallen behind. Instead of testing them, it is better to watch them in advance. This is Xu Wei's idea.

Xu Wei has said so, Guo Daxian will naturally not object.He was just worried that doing so would affect the overall situation of Daqian. After all, the world is not yet unified, and there is still Liu Bei watching, but he does not sympathize with these corrupt officials. In Guo Daxian's view, these corrupt officials deserve death.

Originally, he had a high reputation among the generals of the Yellow Turban Army, even surpassing Zhang Baiqi, but it was because of his selflessness over the years that he dealt with corrupt elements regardless of their relationship, and many of these corrupt elements were Yellow Turbans. He also punished the generals of the military department without mercy.

Now the relationship between the high-ranking officials in Daqian has weakened, and the middle and lower ranks of the Yellow Turban Army are even more afraid of him when they see him, and usually avoid him.

Guo Daxian thought for a while and said: "If we want to really rectify the entire large-scale officials, the current supervisory department alone is far from enough, and we must find ways to help us expand our manpower when we are in power."

"Besides, I don't think that's the way to go. My supervisory department is basically set up according to the big man's, but the big man's officials don't even have one-tenth of my work. Facing so many officials, it's hard to just Relying on the hundreds of censors at the Yushitai, it is impossible to supervise at all, I think the supervision department should go vertically to the counties and counties, so as to best supervise the entire cadre of officials."

Now there are thousands of counties in Dagan. According to Guo Daxian’s idea, if one county arranges 5 supervisory censors, there will be more than 1000 people in 5000 counties, and the benefits of these people should not be too low, otherwise they will join forces with others. It becomes even more frightening that the entire Dagan court will become deaf and blind locally.

But if there are so many thousands of officials with high salaries at once, it will be difficult to support the finances of the big cadres.

Not to mention that Xu Wei has been expanding the number of officials in order to expand the power of the imperial court over the years.If the expansion continues like this, Xu Wei is worried that redundant officials like the Song Dynasty will appear in the Daqian court.

Xu Wei is also very helpless at this point. In terms of salary, middle-level and high-level officials are definitely not as good as those officials of the big man, not to mention the lack of various corruption and unspoken rules of income. In addition, without the benefits earned by the Blessing family, it can be said that the income of high-ranking officials in Daqian is not as good as one-tenth of the income of high-ranking officials in Dahan.

But this is not to say that the administrative expenditure of the big work is small, but the administrative expenditure of the big work is more than ten times that of the big man.

Because the income of grassroots officials of Dagan is generally several times that of grassroots officials of Dahan, and even more than 10 times, not to mention various other benefits.

It can be said that as long as they become high-ranking officials, even if there are no unspoken rules and corruption, they can live a middle-class living standard, and they still have a way to rise.It is said that there are all kinds of preferential treatment, and it is still loyal to serve low-level officials.

The officials in the officialdom of the Han Dynasty are mainly to exploit the people, so they separate the officials from the officials mainly to reduce the population of the exploiting class.Becoming an official lord is naturally a master, and can get most of the benefits of a country. They naturally find a way to reduce the number of people who compete with them for power and profit, so that they can swallow the biggest part of the benefits.

But they couldn’t have no one to do things, so they let these petty officials do things for them, but they only gave them three buckets of rice and five buckets of rice. It was even worse in the Ming Dynasty. Relying on corruption, these petty officials can't survive at all.

Moreover, at that time, the officials and lords had already tacitly accepted the corruption of the petty officials, and they didn't care about these things at all. Anyway, the corruption was not on their heads, and it was only the common people who worked hard.

But Xu Wei definitely couldn't do that.But the consequence of raising the salary is that the administrative expenses of Daqian will explode.So much so that Xu Wei couldn't continue to expand grassroots officials like he did a few years ago.

Although the official position of the supervisory censor in Dagan is not high, the benefits and benefits are comparable to those of middle-level officials in Dagan. Without this kind of treatment, it is difficult to resist the temptation of corrupt elements. It takes 5000 more counties This is where Xu Wei feels embarrassed.

It can be said that tackling corruption is really a worldwide problem, and it is also a problem that has troubled the heroes and heroes of the world for thousands of years.

Xu Wei was a little helpless and said: "First find a way to double your manpower. If you are a permanent unit, let's discuss it at the Four People's Congress before making a decision!"

 Today, the children of relatives have a full moon wine, and there is no time to write, so I can only reduce the number of chapters.
