"Stop!" Lin Tongxi shouted, asking the bailiff to stop immediately.
The person in front of him was exactly the talent he had been looking for these days, and he could just fill the position of a civil official!
[Personal information of the scholar with tattered clothes]
【Status】Minor injury
【Combat Power】First-Rank Wufan
[Talent] Talent for managing the world (quick memory and thinking speed, more adept at governing government affairs, higher administrative efficiency than ordinary people, easier to formulate strategies and plans, etc., the higher the character, the better the results)
Apart from anything else, this talent almost perfectly meets the needs of their team.
At present, they are lacking someone to act as the chief clerk to shut Lei Liquan up.
If Lin Tongxi had not stipulated that incumbent officials were not allowed to register for this exam, Lei Liquan would probably have allowed Pan Yue, whom he recommended, to participate.
Having said that, if the people he finally admits are too mediocre, Lei Liquan may not be convinced, and they will encounter many obstacles in implementing the new policy.
Lin Tongxi had seen Pan Yue before and found that he had no talent. His only advantage over others was his [Official Aura Level 2].
Everyone has an aura, and the aura corresponds to their identity. For example, Chen Yunxuan has the aura of a leader, and Su Ruoxue has the aura of a doctor.
As long as you accumulate enough experience and prestige, everyone can actually improve their aura.
As for the other ordinary people who signed up, Lin Tongxi took a look and found that they were all not very good. Only the miserable scholar in front of him met his standards.
"What's wrong with you? He wants to take the exam, how can you stop him?" Lin Tongxi asked sternly.
As a county official, he is now the head of all officials and can issue orders on behalf of the county magistrate.
Now that the county lieutenant is not in the yamen, the most powerful person nearby is Lin Tongxi.
When the officials thought of this, they all stopped. They didn't want to offend the popular figure next to the new county magistrate.
"Sir, this person is too sloppy. If we allow him to take the exam, it will probably damage the image of the government." Household Official Tian Gaoyuan admonished Lin Tongxi.
"Oh? Didn't the county magistrate say that? Only the talented will be selected! So what if he is sloppy? It's just a temporary image. As long as he has talent, he can take part in this exam!" Lin Tongxi retorted.
Seeing this, the household officer had no choice but to approach Lin Tongxi and whispered about Ye Moqing's identity: "Master Lin, I know this person. He is Ye Moqing, the illegitimate son of the Ye family. The head of the Ye family once said that anyone who took Ye Moqing in would be against his family. I think..."
Hearing this, Lin Tongxi defended Ye Moqing even more: "Master Tian, your consideration makes sense, but I'm sorry that I cannot agree with it."
"The notice clearly states 'no consideration of background, no consideration of status, no consideration of experience'."
"If I don't let Ye Moqing in because of this relationship, wouldn't that go against the original intentions of Lord Ding and County Magistrate Lin?"
"If the Ye family holds a grudge against them, then the government and County Magistrate Lin won't be afraid!"
"A small Ye family, are you really going to go against the entire Xiangzhou?"
When Hu Cao heard this, he shut his mouth, knowing that there was no point in saying more.
Lin Tongxi helped Ye Moqing up at this time and asked with concern: "Brother Ye, are you still conscious?"
"Take...the exam..." Ye Moqing was in so much pain that tears came to his eyes. The tears blurred his vision and he could only mutter a few words.
"Okay, don't worry, I'll ask someone to help you register and get treatment." After saying that, Lin Tongxi asked the officer who had just been rough with Ye Moqing to help Ye Moqing in.
The officer looked very respectful and did not dare to go against Lin Tongxi's wishes.
After Ye Moqing was helped to his feet, Lin Tongxi also stood up and quickly reiterated the principles of this civil service examination: "Everyone, as the notice says, our government adheres to the policy of selecting people based on merit!"
"It doesn't matter where you come from, what your status is, or what your experience is!"
"As long as you have talent, you can sign up!"
"The test contents are highly confidential and are strictly prohibited from being disclosed. Please rest assured!"
"As long as you sign up, the government will be your biggest backer!"
After that, many people rolled up their sleeves, eager to try and plan to sign up.
Originally, they thought that it was just a new official doing something new, but in fact it was still the same practice of appointing and dismissing the children of the gentry.
But if even an illegitimate child like Ye Moqing can participate, why don’t they give it a try?
As the saying goes, are kings, princes, generals and ministers born of different species?
"Everyone line up, don't be anxious!" The remaining officers maintained order.
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Lin Tongxi went to check on Ye Moqing's condition.
In the afternoon, at the registration office, Su Ruoxue was treating Ye Moqing's injuries.
Since the registration form needs to be filled out in person, and Ye Moqing was seriously injured, it was planned to let him recover first before registering.
"Brother Zhu, do you know Ye Moqing?" Lin Tongxi asked about Ye Moqing's identity.
Zhu Li thought about it, and then introduced Ye Moqing's story to Lin Tongxi.
Overall, Ye Moqing is a person who studies hard and is very talented, but he was kicked out of the house just because he was an illegitimate child.
After listening to this, Lin Tongxi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, feudal ethics are killing people!
Moreover, his brother Ye Haokong was really vicious and used the name of his Ye family to pressure others, forcing Ye Moqing to lose his job and unable to find another one.
There is simply no way for Ye Moqing to survive!
Fortunately, Lin Tongxi noticed the movement just now, otherwise he would have missed this talent in vain.
Many people have already arrived at the registration office and started filling out the registration form.
In order to ensure the fairness of this operation, Lin Tongxi and Chen Yunxuan specially dispatched a group of officials from Ruihe Town and asked Hegu Township to send some people to help.
