Chapter 178
Zhao Bing and Ying Jieyan agreed to rectify the administration of officials and recruit officials and clerks to carry out the process so that governments at all levels can be put into operation as soon as possible, so that the government orders of the general government can be understood, and several major tasks at present can be completed as soon as possible.?

c?n In the following days, under the auspices of Yingjieyan, the rules for selection and various reward and punishment regulations were agreed with the departments, and then the prefectures and counties were clearly defined. Qiongzhou is a prefecture-government area, a relatively concentrated population area, and a key area for combat readiness. It can be said that the entire Hainan Island is based on it, so it is implemented first in order to learn from experience and supplement the shortcomings.
Because this time, we must not only fill the vacancies in each prefecture and county, but also partly supplement the yamen and military departments of each department and serve as aides, so all the departments below the General Administration participated in it. Zhao Bing thought that recruiting officials on such a large scale and recruiting officials would be very difficult in this small place in Qiongzhou. Where can we find so many qualified talents for a while, so he prepared to relax the conditions. However, after the work began, he found that Qiongzhou was not short of talents, but quite a lot of talents.
While being happy, Zhao Bing felt that the most important thing to thank was the 'ances of ancestors'. These ancestors did not leave a complete country and endless gold and silver for themselves in life, but left themselves with alternative wealth - a perfect education system. From the emperor to the local government, they attached great importance to the construction of Confucianism. They had relatively proper solutions from school buildings, funding sources, employee staffing, enrollment quotas, and students' "silver" to form a system, and even the emperor would personally handle Confucian affairs.
Although Qiongzhou is a remote and barbaric place, it has opened a prefecture school to cultivate talents in the place where the country was established. After three times of the imperial court's promotion, some officials' promotion and cultural trend brought about by demotion, Qiongzhou's education has basically been improved. Judging from the number of students trained, Confucianism in each prefecture and county recruited nearly 800 civil and military scholars every year. This number seems not large, but compared with the total population of Qiongzhou, the proportion is still quite large. In addition, the accumulated year by year, the number of scholars trained is not a small number.
However, in ancient times, scholars had the only chance to succeed in the imperial examination. As the saying goes, "Learn from the imperial family to learn literature and martial arts," that is, under the imminent constraints, the only ready-made way for a scholar to succeed is to serve the king, and becoming an official has become the best way for him to realize his life value. There may be very few people who have embarked on the imperial examination, so many scholars can only settle in the countryside. Once the door to seek talent in the general's mansion is opened, you can think of how many people will come to apply for the recruitment...
Zhao Bing's current work has become a daily review of the recommendations of various prefectures and counties and the sects who want to recruit talents. Although it is very tiring, he is still very excited to think about the creation of a new situation in Qiongzhou. In order to thank the saints for their teachings and express his love for talents, he also took the time to inspect the prefecture school, worshiped his teacher, worshiped his ancestor Confucius, comforted the teachers and students at the school, and donated 2,000 guan to improve the school's food. It was spread as a good story by Qiongzhou. However, it is no wonder that except for the demoted prime minister, there was no prince who had been here, so of course it would be cited as a grand event.
After several rounds of screening and investigation, and after discussion, Zhao Bing finally settled the candidates and issued a ruling order. Dozens of scholars and officials in the village were able to enter the office. Hundreds of scholars and gentry became clerks in various yamen. They were promised that as long as they did well and had excellent work, they could be transferred to officials. They also received the first national salary. After the meeting on the first day of June, they entered the general's office to thank His Highness for his gratitude, these people immediately performed their duties and devoted themselves to their work.
After finishing the two major events of Leizhou and Talent Selection, Zhao Bing was relieved. He felt like a rotating top was constantly whipped around by a whip. Of course, this was not that he didn't want to be lazy, but that there were many things that he had to do. After a while, he went to the inner palace to take a walk around.
Because the original craftsmanship bureau in the mansion was merged with the Qiongzhou Metropolitan Institute, most of the personnel were divided, but Zhao Bing needed a group of people to try out his own "Ming", so he selected personnel to be the generals in the inner government to work as supervisors. Now there are a group of craftsmen here. Although there are only more than 40 people, they are all leaders in each industry and masters who can be the only ones. Now they are making two kinds of objects, one is a monocular telescope and the other is a compass, both of which are used for navigation.
The production of telescopes was already on the agenda when Zhao Bing gave Zheng Yonghou the home he had traveled with him. After arriving in Hainan, he put it into trial production. This thing does not emphasize the night vision function, light transmittance, etc. commonly used in modern times. It is simple to make. It only takes two lenses and a sleeve that can move forward and backward. The key is to calculate the key data of the lens curvature, magnification, field angle and pupil diameter. Of course, this is not a big problem for Zhao Bing. Now they can produce two types of monocular telescopes that are five times and ten times.
If the newly produced telescope is much higher in terms of value than the one you bring, it is much more exquisite. It is purely handmade, but natural crystal lenses with high purity are of great value. In order to facilitate processing and ensure that they are not easy to damage during use, copper and silver are used as substrates, plus a shark leather protective cover, which is enough to instantly kill modern industrial products on the assembly line on the spot. So far, more than ten have been produced.
Another new thing is the compass. People all know that the compass is one of the four Ming dynasties in China, but it was not what modern civilization saw in the Song Dynasty, but something called the "needle disc". Not only is the accuracy poor, it is also inconvenient to use and carry.
The dial of the needle plate is actually a bowl. There are three large dots in the bowl, and a fine-scheduled character similar to the word "后". Its usage is to put water in the bowl to the water line of the circle of the bowl wall, and then pin the magnetic needle with three pieces of tea leaves or rushes, so that the magnetic needle floats on the water surface. Then, connect the bowl to the middle of a scaled compass, which forms a needle bowl compass. When using it, first align the fine paths in the character "后" with the center line of the hull. If the hull turns, the magnetic needle and the thin line form an angle to show the angle of the heading shift, so as to draw the route and distinguish the heading.
