Chapter 1537 "Land of Longxing"

Su Yonglin took the information obtained by Su Yin's investigation of the resources of the Skynet Army in Shandong, and gained a specific understanding of the political ecology of the entire Shandong region.

After the big purge triggered by the Yellow River case in Hongwu's three-year-old case, the officialdom in this area has undergone a large-scale reorganization. In the previous Qiao Feng case, Shandong was also implicated, and some veteran officials were involved and were taken down .

Overall, the political ecology in Shandong is still quite healthy, and there is no problem with the integrity of officials. The audit department of the Ministry of Finance has poured more resources into Shandong and found nothing wrong.

It can only be said that some problems are not problems that can be solved in the normal range, and not all officials will fall into the trouble of money, especially in this period of Su Yonglin's fame.

But Shandong is a bit different.

In traditional words, Shandong is the "Land of Longxing" in the Ming Dynasty.

At that time, Su Yonglin led the Shengjie Army and the subsequent Liberation Army to challenge and overthrow the Jin Kingdom with Shandong as the base camp. A considerable number of the army and the earliest ruling team also came from Shandong, and even he was the main force against the old bureaucrats in the Yanyun area.

At that time, the old people in Shandong were still newcomers, and they were the main force against the old forces and made great contributions.

Times have changed, and at this time, the political situation in the world has undergone great changes. There is no longer any confrontation between the revolutionary forces and the old bureaucratic gentry, and the forces in various regions pursue balance rather than confrontation.

In Shandong, there are many old subordinates who followed Su Yonglin in the rebellion. There are excellent talents with extremely strong ability, and there are ordinary people with average ability.

Excellent talents have risen step by step to become senior officials by virtue of their own abilities and political achievements, while some ordinary people can only stay where they are.

Daming's official promotion mechanism is relatively fair and transparent under the leadership of Su Yonglin, especially after the Qiao Feng case broke out, this mechanism is more fair, and Su Yonglin pays special attention to it.

Under this fair mechanism, there are clear reasons for being able to be promoted and not being promoted, regardless of seniority, but mainly for political achievements and contributions.

People with excellent political achievements can be promoted smoothly and display their talents on a higher platform, while people with average or no political achievements at all will be difficult.

Originally, the higher the level, the fewer positions, and the more you go up, the more you will become a radish and a pit. Only the best and most successful people should be in the top position. It is impossible to rely on qualifications to get in.

However, such a group of people with mediocre abilities but profound qualifications widely exist in the Shandong area, and even in the Damingfu area.

Their capacity stops at the state level, and it is irresponsible to the country to continue upward, but they themselves do not think so.

They felt that these juniors were still drinking milk at home when they charged into battle with their heads up, and they did not cooperate with them to compete on the same stage, but the juniors stepped on their heads and issued orders to them. They were dissatisfied and felt unfair.

They feel that they should be in high positions, let the juniors listen to their commands, and let them show off their power, but the reality is not the case.

Although Su Yonglin's strong deterrence made them dare not do anything, in daily administration, this kind of non-cooperation, disobedience, and secret stumbling still often existed.

This will not only make some young middle and senior officials who have just been transferred to the region at a loss, but also make it difficult for some young officials who have been transferred to local grassroots positions in Shandong to hold grassroots positions.

These seniors with deep experience can only be yin and yang to their superiors, but to their subordinates, it is a tossing.

According to the survey, the year before Wang Hongjin and Yu Liangzhe arrived in Shandong was not smooth, while Ren Pengyi just came to Shandong to set up a public security department. .

County-level officials are willing to cooperate, but they are hindered at the state level, making it difficult to carry out work. So far, less than one-third of state capitals are ready to set up the establishment of the Ministry of Public Safety.

Ren Pengyi also vaguely mentioned this point, but he didn't complain about being tired. He was probably worried that Su Yonglin felt that complaining about being tired when he first arrived was a bad behavior and would have a negative view on him.

But he didn't say it, doesn't mean there is no such situation.

This kind of situation is not bad in the vicinity of Jinan, close to Jinan, the decree is somewhat deterrent, to the south, Yizhou Juzhou and other places where Su Yonglin started, then the situation is really very serious.

To say that the decree does not come out of Jinan is a bit excessive, and to say that the decree is unimpeded is a daydream.

Yizhou and Juzhou, plus Mizhou, were the places where the Shandong Uprising broke out first, and Su Yonglin's earliest activities, so the locals were proud to claim that this was the place where the great cause started.

It is true that a large number of outstanding military and administrative talents have emerged here. In addition to the old people in Jiangnan, the outstanding talents emerging from these three states are indeed an important help for Su Yonglin's early start.

This would have been something to be honored with.

But in the course of the long-term evolution of the political ecology, this glory has changed a bit.

The more senior you become, the more popular you are in the local area, and the less senior you become, the more likely you are to be bullied locally.

There is a common view among local officials that they only have seniority, which is actually a disguised regional concept, because everyone knows that the most senior officials are either Jiangnan old people or Shandong people.

Senior officials transferred from other places are easily accepted and cooperated by other local officials, but if new officials come to work here, it’s good to be honest and not tossing around. .

The promotion, demotion and transfer of Daming officials also have certain rules.

County-level officials are evaluated every four years, state-level officials and provincial officials are evaluated every five years, and regardless of their ratings, they will be transferred from the local area and will not be re-elected locally to prevent officials from generating interest in the local area.

Officials with excellent ratings will be promoted and reassigned as appropriate, those with average ratings will be transferred on a level-by-level basis in other regions, and those with poor ratings will be worried about demotion and reassignment.

This is a motivating spur to all officials.

In the specific operation process, except for promotions and demotions, officials who are transferred at the same level adhere to the principle of proximity and try not to transfer far away.

The reason is simple.

These days, the road is difficult to travel, the road is not easy to walk, and Daming has a vast territory. For example, from Datong to Yunnan, it will take three to five months at least, and the time is rushing on the road. Three or five months of work is really too long. will delay things.

It’s okay to be promoted or demoted. The number of people is small and can be arranged. The number of people who are transferred at the same level is the most troublesome. If they are all transferred from a distance, it will be very troublesome.

Therefore, it is the best option to transfer to the nearest location.

Therefore, transfers at the same level usually choose to be transferred within the province. Unless the area of ​​employment is close to other provinces, you can transfer to an external province.

This really saves trouble and meets the needs of many people, but this has created a situation of changing the soup without changing the medicine. Over time, it is easy to create nepotism.

Now it's still a matter of seniority and region, and later, it's blood and inheritance.

Therefore, such a situation does not only occur in Shandong Province, but also in other regions, but because Shandong Province is where Su Yonglin started, the situation is even more special.

There are many state-level officials and cadres with senior qualifications, and most of them have no hope of promotion and are full of resentment. If there are one or two or a small group of people who want to fish in troubled waters and do things with Su Yonglin, it would not be surprising at all.
