Chapter 592 Six Doors 2
The establishment and smooth operation of a new department is not as simple as finding an office space, just finding a few people to hang a sign, and there are too many things involved.

Taking Six Doors as an example, the general organizational structure is easy to set up, but the more specific work will take several months to slowly adjust.

"Chen Yu, the building to the east is the office of your Ministry of Internal Affairs. I will give you half a month to perfect it. After half a month, the screening and review of those who sign up for the Six Doors will begin. Get this job done."

"Here." Chen Yu's heart sank. Improving the structure of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in half a month is not an easy task.But since Yue Shan has given a deadline, no matter how difficult it is, he must complete it.

After that, he found the Ministry of Works and the craftsman as the supervisor, and remodeled his own part of the house.

For example, the layout of the archives, the placement of cabinets, measures such as fire, water, insect, and theft... these must be designed in advance.No one can afford the consequences if there is a problem without consideration.

"Zhao Ming, the open space outside the door belongs to your training department. Immediately start to transform it into a training ground to ensure that it can be put into use in the next year."

"Here." Zhao Ming was a decent soldier, he acted concisely and resolutely, and was ready to do things after speaking.

"Don't worry." Yue Shan stopped him: "I asked the four chief arresters to search for experienced forensic and detective techniques across the country. These people are under your jurisdiction. These are all technical. Talent, we must take good care of them.”

"Do you need to train them physically?" Zhao Ming confirmed.

"No... Well, you need to have a good body to do research. In this way, let them rest on time every day, get up in the morning and jog a few laps to exercise their bodies, and they don't have to force them to exercise like the Field Service Department."

"My subordinate understands."

"Go."

After sending Zhao Ming away, Yue Shan found four more chief arresters. At this time, the four were designing the prison together.

"Prison is best designed as a dungeon, safe and not easy to escape."

"But in this way, the construction cost will be too high, and it will take time and effort. I am afraid it will not be put into use in the short term."

"There are a lot of prisons in the capital. You can ask other departments to borrow one or two, so there should be no problem with the face of the superintendent."

"The commander-in-chief has this face, but how can he use it so casually. Besides, it is inconvenient to borrow someone else's prison, you understand."

Now everyone understands.There are too many shady things that happen in prisons, borrowing other people's prisons can easily expose internal privacy and be caught by others.

The most important thing is that he cut off his own source of income.

"Then what do you say? You can't build a prison on flat ground, right?"

Just as the others were about to shake their heads, they heard someone behind them say, "I think this idea is good."

"I've met the commander-in-chief." Just by hearing the voice, they knew who it was, and the four quickly got up and saluted.

"Sit." Yue Shan came to the main seat and sat down, and said, "Don't build any dungeons, there is no need for that. There is a lot of open space at the entrance, just choose a place to build a prison on the ground."

"This...is too obvious, and it's easy to escape from prison." Guan Lijun objected.

"Obviously, the barbed wire fence in the high-wall compound is more deterrent to those lawbreakers, allowing them to consider the consequences before committing crimes." Yue Shan retorted:

"As for the prison escape, you think too much. The thicker the wall, the stricter the guards. Those prisoners are not gods and don't know how to fly over the wall. It's so easy to escape from the prison."

"We not only need to build the prison on the ground, but also make it spacious and bright, and the sanitation must be improved, not to mention spotless, but also to make the prisoners feel at home."

"Ah? This... this..." The four were dumbfounded and couldn't believe their ears. Is this a prison?Inns are not so good.

"This and that and that and that, remember that we are a six-door organization, an institution that existed before, so it will naturally form a contrast with those departments before." Yue Shan knew that it would be useless to talk to them about human rights. Directly and arrogantly said:
"Besides, who has the most dealings with these prisons? Is it a human prisoner? No, it's our brothers from the Six Doors. The jailer is our own brother, and we usually go to interrogate prisoners by ourselves. If the prison is dirty and smelly, it will be uncomfortable. Or ourselves."

"Didn't you read the epidemic prevention manual issued by the medical school the year before last? Dirty and messy environments and insects such as mosquitoes, rats and fleas are the most likely to breed and spread diseases. You don't want to interrogate a prisoner one day and contract the disease?"

"Besides, our prison is the closest to Yong'an Palace. Maybe one day the sage will come and take a look if he is interested. Do you want the sage to see a neat six doors, or let him see a dirty and messy prison? "

The four shook their heads subconsciously, although everyone knew that the prison was dirty and messy.But usually when the superiors come to inspect them, they will also clean up specially, and tidy up the prisoners in a decent way. Why?
Leave a good impression on your superiors that we "do practical things".

The six-door prison is just outside the Yong'an Palace. With Yueshan's status in the emperor's mind, Li Shimin may come to inspect it at any time.At that time, if you see something you shouldn't see...

The superintendent is right, the prison must be built on the ground, it must be spacious and bright, and it must be cleaned regularly.

The four of them changed their positions in an instant and confirmed Yue Shan's plan.

"Let me tell you one more thing. My six-door prison will not hold ordinary criminals for a long time. Once the case is concluded, the criminals will be transferred to Dali Temple Prison."

"There is only one kind of person who can be imprisoned in my six-door prison for a long time..."

Speaking of this, Yue Shan pretended to be mysterious and paused for a while, his eyes swept over the faces of the four people, and Guan Lijun and the other four immediately stood up, wanting to hear what is special about it.

Only then did Yue Shan spit out two words softly: "Imperial order."

"Hiss..." The four breathed out for the first time and then... a little excited, a little apprehensive, a little stressed, but most of them were excited in the end.

What is imperial prison?The edict refers to the emperor's will, and the edict refers to the meaning of the emperor's decree to supervise and investigate officials who committed crimes.

That is to say, the targets of imperial edicts are officials, and most of them are officials with more than two thousand stones (fifth rank and above).Because officials with less than two thousand stones are not qualified to let the emperor speak unless the crime is particularly serious.

If the emperor has made up his mind, it's fine that this person must die. You're going to die anyway, so it doesn't matter if I abuse you.

The problem is that such cases are very likely to be repeated. The emperor was angry and wanted to kill his head, but when he was sober and persuaded, he might change his mind.

If you don't serve these people well in prison, when they go out, you will be impeachment memorial, even if you don't impeach, you can take revenge in private.

Besides, even if the emperor is determined to let this person die, how dare you, a jailer, abuse an official with more than two thousand shi?
The fifth rank is a high-ranking official at the state governor level, which one can climb to this position without an interest group behind it?If you really dare to abuse this high-ranking official, aren't you afraid of revenge from the people behind him?

It would be fine if Six Doors was a department like Jinyi Weidong Factory, but unfortunately it is not.He is just a police department that investigates cross-state and county cases. He does not have that much power and cannot afford to offend those high-ranking officials.

So the best way is to make the prison better, and treat all detainees equally.

When the emperor came, he would not think that you treated prisoners preferentially and despised the emperor's authority. When a prisoner came in and saw how clean your prison was, he would not say that you treated him badly.

perfect.

At this time, the four of them changed their attitudes just now, and were convinced by Yue Shan's suggestion.It's no wonder that when he was a teenager, he became the county marquis Dali Temple Shaoqing and presided over the work of the six sects. Regardless of his status as a magic stick, his political wisdom is far beyond the reach of himself and others.

After determining the specifications of the prison, the rest is simple. The location is in the side courtyard of the six gates. Several large courtyards are selected and surrounded by high walls. After internal renovation, hundreds of single rooms can be divided, which is more than enough for temporary detention of prisoners.

After the matter of the prison was finalized, Yue Shan began to care about personnel issues, which is why he found four people.

"Have you found the clerk and skilled detective I asked you to recruit?"

"There are 17 clerks and arresters in the Gyeonggi area that meet your requirements, and [-] clerks and [-] arresters. I have already sent people to invite them, and they should be there in a few days." Bai Lifu said first.

As a local snake in the Gyeonggi area, he is most familiar with this area, and he is best at finding people.

"The bad people have a lot of talents in this field. I have already sent a letter asking them to come to the six doors to report. About four or fifty people can come." Guan Lijun replied, and then hesitated for a while before saying:

"Many bad people from the past privately inquired about when the Six Doors would recruit police officers and what the criteria were."

"Then there must be many people who want to join the Six Doors through the back door of you, the chief arrester, right?" Yue Shan laughed.

Guan Lijun smiled wryly and said, "The commander-in-chief is wise, that's true. After all, those people were my hands... Brother, I really want them to have a serious business. Please give me an accurate word, commander-in-chief."

Bad people, what are bad people?As the name suggests, people with taints are not good people.

The Tang Dynasty was really inclusive of all rivers and rivers. The court considered that street gangsters and hooligans would seriously affect the public security environment if they were not dealt with, but there was no effective way to deal with them.

After all, he is just a hooligan who has not committed any serious crimes, so he can't be arrested and sentenced to exile and beheaded, right?At most, it is to catch them and teach them a lesson before letting them go.

But the effect of this punishment method can only be said to be a little better than nothing.

Not to mention in the Tang Dynasty, even in the 21st century petty theft is an illegal act that cannot be effectively governed.

Those people are all habitual offenders, and if they don’t steal big ones, they only spend a few hundred yuan. They are detained for ten days and a half months, and they are treated as vacations. After they are released, they continue to work.

The Tang court thought of a genius way to recruit these local ruffians for the court to use.After all, people have a breath of life, and with a decent job, most people don't want to sneak around.

So there are bad people, whose role is to arrest criminals and fight against evil forces.

This move can be regarded as a model of using black to control black.

Someone in later generations produced a classic animation with the theme of bad people, portraying the bad people as a mysterious spy organization, which is actually a myth of it.

There are clear records of bad people in history, including the reasons for its establishment, the identities of its members, the positions in charge, etc., can't even the official historical records be false?
Closer to home, if the court cancels the bad person organization, then the placement of the original bad person members will become a big problem.

Cleared directly?It will soon become a malignant tumor that is difficult to eradicate locally.

All absorbed into six doors?It doesn't work either.

There are good and bad members of bad people. Some people have changed their minds and started a new life after being recruited.

Yue Shan didn't want those scum to contaminate the six doors, so he had to go through a screening process.As for the screening criteria, he has already formulated them. He was busy building the basic framework before and did not announce them. Now that he mentioned this crop, he said it out of the box:

"After half a month, the original unscrupulous people will be screened, and those who pass will be included in the six gates. Those who are unqualified can join the local yamen as yamen servants according to the situation, or give them a chance to join the army."

"Thank you, Du Shuai, for your brother who is a generation of bad people." Guan Lijun said happily.

These original subordinates finally have a way to resettle them, and they will not be reduced to street gangsters, he is very happy from the bottom of his heart.

Entering the six doors is naturally the best choice, and being a soldier is also a good place.

The soldiers of the early Tang Dynasty were all government soldiers.What is Fubing?That is, as long as you are selected, you will be divided into hundreds of acres of land. It can be said that one person serving as a soldier will benefit future generations.

So it was very difficult to become a soldier in the early Tang Dynasty.

When recruiting soldiers, there is a political review, and only good family members with clean net worth have a chance to be selected, and it is impossible to even dream of being a soldier with a bad background.

Now Yueshan has given them a chance, it is not an exaggeration to say that the ancestral graves are emitting green smoke.

Compared with these two options, working as a servant in a government office on the ground is the worst choice.Of course, people have their own aspirations, and I believe there will be many people who choose to be government servants.

"Well, the Tang Dynasty has a vast territory and a large population. The members of our six doors will probably be exhausted. I am thinking about whether to add peripheral members to the official members?" Yue Shan said again.

"What is a peripheral member?" Guan Lijun asked.

"It's just that they are not counted among the official members, have no law enforcement power, and cannot use the guise of the Six Doors to swagger through the market. But those who belong to the Six Doors privately...well, the Wind Watchers, this peripheral member is called the Wind Watchers."

"I don't have a salary, and I can't claim to be a member of the Six Doors, but I collect information for us in private."

"Benefits must also be given. They will be rewarded based on intelligence. If they perform well and make great contributions, they will have the opportunity to become regulars."

"Here, this is a good idea." Bai Lifu couldn't help but shouted as he slapped the table.

"It's really a good idea. Before, I was still worried that we might not be able to discover the case in time with only our few people. It would be troublesome to collect information in case of an urgent case." Wu Shen, the chief arrester, also praised it.

"Okay, since you all agree, then this matter is settled. After the official members confirm, we will start to develop the wind watcher." Yue Shan made a decision.

"My subordinates still have a question. Is the wind watcher recruited by the headquarters or what should we do?" Guan Lijun asked a key question.
