Chapter 432 Being a Questioner (The third update, today's update)
civil servants!
As early as 1863, in order to cope with the increasing population and the needs of municipal management, Nanhua began to learn from the civil service reform plan just implemented in the United Kingdom, and implemented a completely open civil service examination. After all, Huaxia has long relied on examinations to select officials, which is the imperial examination system.

On the other hand, Nanhua borrowed some content from the British civil service examination on the basis of the imperial examination system, rather than selecting talents and employing personnel through stereotyped essays in the imperial examination.

Different from the selection of officials through the imperial examination, "civil servants" are to a certain extent selected officials, and if you want to be an official, you must first be an "official".

It was also from then on that "civil servants" became the only way for ordinary South Chinese to get into the officialdom. I don't know how many South Chinese dreamed of being "nominated on the gold list".

After all, for Chinese people, being an official is the best shortcut to prosperity.At least this has been the case with China's education for thousands of years, and studying is for becoming an official.

As long as you become an official, it will be a natural thing to make a fortune.There is no imperial examination in Nanhua, and only by applying for civil servants can one enter the officialdom.

Therefore, every civil service recruitment has attracted many people to apply for the examination.However, it is not easy to take the civil service exam. In the past, the requirements were very high - not only must you be proficient in at least one foreign language, but you must also receive education in a specialized school - a specialized school is a university to a certain extent, which is used by companies to train specialized School of talent.

Nanhua doesn't recognize talents and candidates, but only recognizes Nanhua's own "education". For immigrants, if they want to make a fortune, the easiest shortcut is to "do questions"!
Like all immigrants, when Feng Haodong first came to Nanhua, he worked in a factory. However, after several years of private education, he was not satisfied with a monthly salary of more than ten yuan, but studied in night schools. It took him three years to learn foreign languages, mathematics, geography and other knowledge, and he finally passed the high school exam, which is just an academic ability test, and obtained a high school diploma.

Like all the people who passed the exam, he was admitted to a specialized school of accounting and became an employee of the company after graduation. Although the difference between an employee and an employee is just one word, the income and treatment are very different. As an employee, he can apply for an independent residential buildings, while employees can only apply for unit buildings.As for the income, it is also much higher than that of ordinary workers.

But even so, Feng Haodong still hopes to become a civil servant. After all, a civil servant is... an official!
official!
Be an official!

This is the ultimate dream of a scholar.

Because of this, in the past year, he has been working hard to prepare for the civil service exam.

Sitting at the desk, Feng Haodong looked at the recruitment information on "Nanyuan Daily" again, and there were a lot of books piled up on the desk.The civil servants in Nanhua do not specify textbooks, nor do they have an exam outline, which makes people have no direction to review.

According to Zhu Xianhai's requirements, the examination content included mathematics, foreign languages, history, geography, biology and other fields. It was basically a test of logic, calculation, natural and scientific knowledge related to middle school.

In Zhu Xianhai's view, whether it is the designated textbooks or the establishment of an examination syllabus, they are essentially another form of "stereotyped writing" in disguise. That's why he borrowed from the examination plan in the British civil service reform plan.Because the content of the exam is too complicated, over the years, Nanhua's civil service exam can basically clear nearly half of the candidates after the initial exam.

When entering the main examination stage, the examination subjects are divided into nine, and the content is more complicated and specific.In addition to the self-selected professional subject content inspection, it also involves more specific and detailed international relations, economic management, public governance, science and technology, as well as history and culture, and moral cultivation.In addition, at least one foreign language qualification examination in English, French, Spanish, Portuguese and German must be passed.After the main test is over, it is the interview.

Moreover, candidates can only take the test six times in their lifetime. If they fail all six times, they will no longer be eligible to apply for the test.It is also because of this that no one will take the exam easily without being well prepared.

Although it is very difficult, for those South China people from Huaxia without any background, the civil service examination is the best way to change their destiny.

Do the questions!

As long as you do the questions well, you can definitely change your destiny!
In Nanhua, this is extremely fair and just.Nanhua will never treat any writers badly, nor will he take away the positions of those writers just because of someone's background.

Everything in Nanhua, in the final analysis, is fairness, and there is nothing other than fairness.

The first is fairness, the second is still fair, and the third must still be fair.

If there is no such minimum fairness.Does fairness matter?

Like many people, Feng Haodong also chose to "do the questions". Although he was shocked when he first came to Nanhua, he thought that as a child student, he could easily pass the "High School Academic Ability Test" and enter a specialized school. , looking for a job with a good salary in the company, and as a result, various unheard of knowledge such as foreign languages, mathematics, geography, natural history, etc., directly stunned him. Fortunately, he adapted quickly, and he was extremely smart. Passed the high school exam in three years.

Doing the questions... Feng Haodong felt that he was still very good at it.In fact, who is not good at taking the imperial examination?

Since the Song Dynasty used the imperial examination to judge talent, for thousands of years, there have been a few of China's capable ministers who did not make it through doing questions.

Well, that is, the princes and ministers of the Manchu Qing Dynasty don't have to do the questions.Relying on their pedigree of the Qing Dynasty and the Eight Banners, they can become Manchen officials.

But there is no such thing in Nanhua, everyone needs to do the questions.

Although Nam Hwa's exams are very fair.But there are many restrictions.There are restrictions on the age, number of exams, and subject categories.

Feng Haodong still didn't dare to apply for the civil service examination when he was not fully prepared. After all, there are only five chances in a lifetime.

However, in the face of the civil service examination without unified teaching materials and examination outline, it is completely like a fog, and even the review is confusing. What should I do?
I can only read the book over and over again, read as many books as possible, and do as many questions as possible.

But there must always be a range!
Mathematics, foreign language, history, geography, biology, international relations, economic management, public governance, science and technology...

These must be learned!Because the scope involved is too wide, it is not easy to prepare for the exam in a targeted manner, and you can only learn as much as you can.

What's even worse is that only one or two hundred civil servants are recruited every year!

But thousands of people signed up!
Officer, who doesn't want to be an officer!
Just when he was desperate, this civil servant recruitment announcement made Feng Haodong see hope.

"What a god-sent opportunity! I thought it would be difficult to enter an official career in this life, but I never thought that this opportunity is right in front of me!"

Ever since, Feng Haodong and Yuan Tianxi directly applied for the exam, and the registration fee required a two-dollar silver coupon!
After signing up and paying the registration fee, Yuan Tianxi said with emotion:
"Haodong, when I first came to Nanhua, I always felt that it was very awkward everywhere, but in reality? If I stay in Tangshan, even if I get promoted through the imperial examination and want to get an official job, so what? No, you still have to be a slave, kowtow when you see people, it’s just wishful thinking if you don’t kowtow and not be a slave or an official, but it’s different here in Nanhua, everything is new, as long as you have talent and learning, you will definitely have a place to use it, Even if we don’t pass the civil servant exam or become an official, don’t we rely on our knowledge, pass the exam, enter a specialized school, and become an employee of the company.”

"What Brother Yuan said is very true. Nanhua is indeed different from Tangshan in every way, and there are many opportunities. If you can pass the civil servant exam this time, you will have a bright future with Brother Yuan's ingenuity."

"Haodong, that's ridiculous. Right now, it's important to be admitted to this civil servant first. Now is a rare opportunity, so don't miss it!"

Yuan Tianxi said again.

"It's the powers and responsibilities of the Land Reform Commission. I can't figure it out until now. I heard that it is a newly established organization, and the civil servants recruited by Nanhua are all officials. I don't know what the future will be. It is really confusing. I'm a little bit at a loss! Besides, there is only half a month to prepare, and the time is really tight!"

Tight!
Why is time so tight?

Because Sun Wenshan has no time to waste!
With the successive annexation of Argentina's other provinces, the implementation of land reform has become the top priority of all tasks.

If you want to implement reform, you need people.

These people need to know Spanish, understand government affairs, and know how to manage the place. Therefore, new civil servants must be recruited.Unlike the previous annual recruitment of about 812 civil servants, this time the committee recruited 2000 at one time. In fact, this is only the first batch. To complete the entire land reform plan, at least [-] civil servants need to be recruited.

Such generous recruitment has attracted many people to apply for the exam.

For any South Chinese, being able to enter the ranks of civil servants not only means that they no longer have to worry about livelihood issues, but also embark on the road of "winners in life".After all, the salaries of civil servants are very generous, and the salaries of general newcomers range from 60 yuan to 75 yuan per month.

In addition, there are various projects such as various transportation subsidies, children subsidies, food subsidies, or subsidies for difficult areas. After retirement, you can also get a fairly generous pension.

Not only is the salary much higher than that of ordinary people, but the benefits of civil servants are also very good. In addition to free medical care, they also have housing that matches their level.Even at a certain level, there are government-sponsored nannies and cooks at home to take care of their daily life.

The reason why the remuneration is generous is that... Nanhua civil servants were first implemented in Shanxi, that is, Araucania and Chile, which was later occupied. In other words, they were the proper ruling class there. to rule those areas.

As conquerors in the occupied areas, can they not be treated generously?After all, the danger they will face in the occupied area is unimaginable to the outside world...
