Above the Pirate King

"Cough cough cough---"

There was a severe coughing sound, and Karpev sat down again, holding a handkerchief in his hand, coughing non-stop.

After a while, it slowed down.

When he removed the handkerchief, he found scarlet blood on it.

Karpev stared blankly at the blood on the handkerchief, and fell into confusion for a while.

At this moment, a crisp child's voice woke him up.

"Father...Father..."

I saw a three or four-year-old girl in a princess dress, with pink hair, opened her hands, and ran in with a happy face.

Seeing this, Capev hurriedly put away the handkerchief, stuffed it into his pocket, squeezed a smile on his face, opened his arms, hugged the little girl, and said with a smile: "My little Perona! "

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

In the afternoon, the sun and Xi,

St. Martin's Palace, study room!

Arthur was sitting in front of the study carefully reviewing various documents.

Some time ago, in order to develop the thunderous fruit, he put down all these things, and in the past two days, he had to quickly review the documents that had piled up during this period.

"Dong dong!"

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in!" Arthur said casually, his eyes never leaving the document in his hand.

"Your Majesty!" The person who came in was Connie, the Minister of Personnel.

"Is there a problem?"

As soon as it was Connie's voice, Arthur put down the document in his hand first, raised his head, and asked seriously.

"The final part of the official assessment is about to begin, and your Majesty needs to go there in person!" Connie explained.

"Snapped!"

Arthur slapped his head, and then he remembered that there was an official assessment today!

The official assessment is one of the most important assessments in the Kingdom of St. Maarten, and it is also one of the main paths for civilians in the Kingdom of St. Maarten to be promoted.

In the Kingdom of St. Martin, there are three main ways to become an official. The first is to join the army and take the route of an officer. The second is to be recommended by a ruling or retired official who has reached a certain level. The third is to pass the official assessment!

Among them, the first and third are the main promotion paths for civilians!

Of course, no matter which way you go, the most important thing is political performance and meritorious service. Even if someone recommends you, you have to start from the bottom. But in front of the political performance of the same level, the recommended person will be promoted first.

In other words, those who are truly capable can be promoted no matter which path they take!

The above is just the main way, and there are other ways, such as being rewarded by Arthur, making contributions to the kingdom, having super specialties in a certain aspect, and so on.

Having said that, the official assessment is divided into three parts,

The first part is the written test. Candidates will take a written test. There are two written tests. The first is the basic knowledge assessment, and the second is the professional knowledge assessment.

The basic knowledge assessment is relatively simple, mainly about the history of the kingdom, the development of the kingdom, the beliefs of the kingdom, etc. As long as the thinking is correct, [-]% of people will pass it!

The professional knowledge assessment is chosen by the candidates themselves. Different majors have different test papers. After the decision is made, they will be assigned to that administrative unit.

If you take the agriculture test, you will be assigned to the relevant agricultural department later!

The second part is the interview, which is presided over by the Minister of Personnel, Connie, and selects the heads of various departments to assess the candidates!

However, the assessment will be divided into examination rooms. Before the examination starts, all candidates and examiners do not know where they are located. Ten minutes before the examination starts, the examination venue will be determined by lottery.

Candidates are not allowed to reveal their names during the interview, but only their test number. Candidates will announce their results on the spot after the test!

After that, those who pass the grades are selected by combining the grades of the two and become reserve officials.

That's right, after two parts, you will be a reserve official!

And the last part is to meet Arthur, who will write the questions, and all those who pass will take another round of exams in front of the palace hall.

This exam will not affect their appointment as officials, but it will affect their promotion speed. If Arthur is satisfied, they will naturally be promoted first!

After all the assessments are completed, the reserve officials will be directly assigned by the kingdom to various basic administrative units in villages, towns, cities, and island cities, and they will become regulars after three months.

Among them, the island city is the main city of a large island, or the main city of several small islands. The island city governs all the ordinary cities on the island, the city governs the surrounding towns, and the town governs the surrounding villages.

Arthur first put down the things in his hands, and followed Connie to the square in front of the palace hall.

A thousand preparatory officials have been waiting here for a long time, and there are tables and chairs beside them.

The tables and chairs were criss-crossed, forming a square, with a distance of three meters between each table and chair, and the reserve officials stood next to their respective tables and chairs. The tables and chairs covered the entire square, which seemed a bit crowded!

Originally, two to three hundred people would become probationary officials at most in the annual examination, but in order to cope with the next expansion, the admission requirements were relaxed this year, and only a thousand probationary officials would be selected, which made the square look a bit crowded.

"See Your Majesty!"

Seeing Arthur coming, the preparatory officials shouted to Arthur who was standing on one knee in the square.

"Excuse me!" Arthur waved his hand and said lightly.
