Chapter 516: Setting Up the Structure
Pingzhou, Liaoxi County
After Lu Songli returned to Pingzhou, the first thing he did was to post a recruitment notice to recruit all kinds of talents, and this matter was handed over to Jiang Yizhou.
Because of Jiang Yizhou's photographic memory, Lu Songli directly used him as a human resources management master.
Then she began to build the framework of the new policy.
The background of Dali is similar to that of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. In terms of grassroots management, it still follows the township system of the Han Dynasty.
The township and village system of the Han Dynasty included three types of institutions: township, pavilion, and village.
The township group is the key regional administrative unit below the county level, with positions such as Youzhi, Sanlao and Youxi.
Youzhi, also known as suofu, was the chief official of the village. His duty was to know the good and evil of the people, the order of service, the wealth of the people, and the amount of tax to be levied. Sometimes, a xiangzuo would be appointed as his deputy to be in charge of taxation.
The three elders are responsible for educating the villagers.
You Xi is responsible for the public security of the village.
Pavilions were only set up in cities and transportation fortresses. They had officials such as Pavilion Chief, Pavilion Assistant, Pavilion Marquis, Tingdao Seeker, and Pavilion Father. These officials were under the jurisdiction of the county lieutenant and were mainly responsible for hunting down thieves.
The li level is the most basic management unit, with one hundred households in each li and a lizheng.
The Wu is the most basic unit of resident organization, with five households forming a Wu, and each Wu has a Wu leader, also called Wu Lao.
Lu Songli thought about it and decided to add an agricultural college, an engineering college, a medical college and a military college to Liaodong Academy.
Then we added village committees, neighborhood committees, and women's federations, established health centers, established orphanages bureaus, opened schools, and started literacy classes.
The establishment of these grassroots institutions will establish closer ties between the new policies and the masses.
With the exception of health centers, which are temporarily unable to launch the program due to staff shortages, all other areas are open to implementation. She designated Changli, Houcheng, Fangxian, and Longcheng as the first batch of pilot counties and towns.
The establishment of village committees and neighborhood committees can liberate government offices to a great extent. Some civil disputes can be resolved through their mediation, which can effectively save human resources.
The Women's Federation is also very important. No matter where you are, there are half men and half women, and there are also children. There should be a government office specifically to solve problems related to women and children.
Moreover, Lu Songli already has candidates in mind for the heads of the Women's Federation and the Health Center.
That night, Lu Songli returned home on time for dinner.
After dinner, when the maids had cleared the dishes away, Lu Songli said to Qin's mother, "Mother, I have something to tell you."
"What's the matter?" Seeing her daughter-in-law's serious expression, Qin's mother couldn't help feeling uneasy, thinking that something had happened to Xiaoliu.
"Well, because of the war, many children have lost their parents across Pingzhou and Youzhou. I plan to officially establish a charity bureau in each county of Pingzhou and Youzhou. Mother, I want you to be in charge of the Liaodong County Charity Bureau."
The Salesian Bureau is an orphanage.
Casualties are inevitable in war. In these troubled times, orphans are even more common. Without help, it would be extremely difficult for them to survive in this chaotic world.
Hearing this, Qin's mother breathed a sigh of relief. She was glad that nothing happened to Xiaoliu or her other sons.
"This..." Mother Qin hesitated. She wanted to refuse. She had never done anything like this before. When they were in Chang'an, although the Qin family donated money and materials to the Charity Bureau in Chang'an every year, they had never participated in the management of the Charity Bureau.
But this is the first time that my daughter-in-law wants her help...
"Mom, don't worry. The government office will arrange for people to do the relevant work. You will mainly play a supervisory role in the Charity Bureau. If there is still a lot of work, you can consider finding an assistant to help you. Besides, my mother has already agreed to be in charge of the Liaoxi County Charity Bureau."
When Mother Qin heard that her mother-in-law had agreed, she said, "Then I'll give it a try?"
Lu Songli encouraged, "Just try it, it will definitely be fine."
Qin's mother likes the fact that her daughter-in-law never says discouraging words.
"I don't need an assistant. I'll let your second mother help me."
"Alright."
"Where is the Liaodong County Charity Bureau located?"
Lu Songli: "Houcheng!" It must be Houcheng. There are many rich people in Houcheng, and institutions like orphanages can get more help if they are set up there.
Houcheng, the eldest son is currently training troops in Houcheng, and Qin's mother is willing to go.
After finishing one, Lu Songli looked at Qin Ersao who was doing needlework, "Second sister-in-law, I also have something to tell you."
Cai stopped sewing and looked at her doubtfully, "Sixth sister-in-law, just tell me what's going on."
Lu Songli told her about the Pingzhou Prefecture's plan to establish a Women's Federation, hoping that she could serve as the first president.
Cai's name was Cai Xue. After hearing what her sixth sister-in-law said, she was stunned for a moment. When she came to her senses, she shook her head repeatedly, "Me? No, no."
"Second sister-in-law, you have a cheerful personality, are pragmatic, fair and upright, and are strict with yourself. I think you can do the job."
Cai Xue blushed a little when she was praised. Is she really that good?
"Sixth brother's wife, you just appointed mother as the head of the Liaoxi County Charity Bureau, and now you want me to be the president of the Women's Federation. People will say you are nepotism, which is not good."
Lu Songli didn't care.
She had said before that she would use talents in a flexible way.
Even if they accuse me of nepotism, at least I've taken the first step, right?
Lu Songli advised her, "This isn't about just enjoying power without fulfilling your responsibilities. If you sit in this position, you have to work. Justice is in the hearts of the people, so let's do our best and don't worry about what others say."
Cai Xue was truly tempted. She felt this was a different kind of life. Now at home, she was just serving her mother-in-law, taking care of the children, and doing needlework. She could see the end of her days coming soon.
"Sixth brother's wife, I've never done this kind of work before."
"If you don't know how to do it, just learn. No one is born knowing everything."
Hearing this, Cai Xue no longer hesitated, "Okay, since Sixth Sister-in-law thinks your Second Sister-in-law is capable of doing this job, then I'll give it a try."
"That's right. Then, sister-in-law, you should prepare well in the next two days and then take up your post."
Lu Songli immediately arranged for three female members of the family, and the remaining third sister-in-law Nie Yunniang and fourth sister-in-law Su Jing were a little confused.
"Third sister-in-law? Third sister-in-law?"
Nie Yunniang came to her senses only after her arm was pushed.
"Why are you distracted? Your sixth sister-in-law is calling you."
Lu Songli waved at her, "Third sister-in-law, come here, I have something to tell you."
Nie Yunniang came over and sat down in the empty seat opposite her.
Wang Donggan’s water army is doing a good job, but he currently has some shortcomings. The way information is disseminated is not fast enough, and she must make up for his shortcomings.
Her third sister-in-law not only sings opera, but also writes plays...
