The demon world I designed

Seeing Tian Heng's attentive eyes, Chen Qing's heart sank slightly.

Sure enough, as soon as the new territory was conquered, the old people in the power took notice. The civil service system was not taken seriously yet, but everyone wanted the Yin Division.

This thing is so good at taking care of one's own exclusive power. After a person dies, he is guaranteed in the Shinto stream. Whether he is a meritorious sergeant, a knowledgeable warlock, or something else, after death, he will be under the control of the Yin Division. This leads to power Everyone here is in awe of the underworld.

When it comes to the Yin Division, theoretically speaking, the higher the merits of people in the Yang world, the better the benefits they will enjoy, but there will still be profit manipulation. The owner of the Yin Division can decide the management of the Yin Division, and can also decide what you can get in the future in the Yin Division. A channel of merit, just this right, who wouldn’t want it?

There is no priesthood that can benefit the family more than the Lord of the Underworld.

But the more it is because of this, the less likely it is to give the underworld to a being like Tian Heng.

Chen Qing sighed, looked at the other party's attentive eyes, and said calmly: "In the future, a Yin Division appointment system will be established, and no one will be appointed directly."

"Um" Tian Heng was stunned at first, knowing in his heart that the Lord was rejecting him, but he did not say that there was another candidate, but said that there was a new appointment system, which meant that the other party would not only not use people from his Tian family, but also I won’t use the Shen family.

New system?

That should be a representative for everyone. The Tian family also has a chance!

"My lord is wise and must have thought of a perfect plan." Tian Heng said with a smile.

Chen Qing couldn't help but roll his eyes as the tall hat was brought over. This guy was obviously reminding himself that since it was a new plan, everyone had to be convinced, including the other party.

"Since you have asked here, let me explain to you first. As for the Underworld Division, from now on I plan to appoint consuls based on their performance and the votes of the people."

"Uh?" Tian Heng was stunned: "Achievements? People's votes?"

"What do you think of the status of Jiangnan's administrators?" Chen Qing asked the other party directly.

"Administrative officer." Tian Heng lowered his head and thought after hearing this, and said after thinking for a while: "Today's administrative officers in Jiangnan have very high requirements. They must not only understand the classics and meanings to ensure cultural education, but also understand the science and magician knowledge, and understand the general engineering principles and Only then can we introduce better projects to benefit the area under our control. Although I don't pay much attention to this area, I also know that the recent administrative appointments seem to be young people who were born in the academy and are young people who understand both civil and political affairs. .The comprehensive requirements are very high, but..."

He paused and looked at Chen Qing: "His status is not very high."

Chen Qing laughed when he heard this. This is indeed a very strange thing about Jiangnan now. The people in power in Jiangnan are not fixed and change a lot. In order to cooperate with Mr. Warlock of the academy in project development, many officials of the older generation completely rely on those from the academy. The young auxiliary assigned to understand the situation.

As time goes by, he will be ignored, because it is all the young auxiliary officials who are doing the work. The county magistrate who is not doing anything will find that the people who are following him will increasingly disown him.

After all, coming from an academy brings with it an aura, and everyone respects them even more. They don't treat the original temporary county magistrates very well. Such is the folk custom, that in the past few years, the first batch of county magistrates in each county have resigned one after another.

Chen Qing never refuses anyone who comes, and will directly convert the auxiliary administrators of the local county government to regular positions as long as they resign. Nowadays, in the counties in the south of the Yangtze River, they are basically young students born in colleges. With the experience of auxiliary administrators, this group of too young people Warlock not only has experience in governing, but also has the recognition of grassroots officials. At least for now, they get along quite harmoniously.

But there is a problem. As Tian Heng said, the status is not high!

The new consuls need to know a little bit about everything, and the overall quality requirements are actually very high. However, the fundamental reason why this group of people can serve as consuls is that they have no talent for magic. Even research-oriented warlocks still need talent. Yes, the academy is so big and recruits a lot of people every year. There are always a group of people who can't keep up with the pace, can't develop their own projects, and can't become real warlocks.

This group of people can't be scrapped without the warlock route, right? So he responded to the call and became an auxiliary. In the eyes of traditional magicians, these were all eliminated. Among the people, those magicians who could directly improve the quality of life of the people were more respected, resulting in a lower status for the consuls.

It's not a good thing to go on like this.

In Chen Qing's eyes, a consul cannot be too strong and authoritarian, but he cannot be too weak, otherwise it will be detrimental to people's livelihood.

"This is also the key reason." Chen Qing nodded and said: "If the status is not high, then outstanding disciples will not develop in this direction. Those who are eliminated will have to choose this path, which will lead to the lower and lower quality of the consuls and the lower quality of the civil servants. His status cannot be so low.”

"So the Lord intends to use the position of the Underworld to enhance the status of civil servants?" Tian Heng immediately understood what the other party meant.

Chen Qing nodded: "The Yin Division has a very high status. This is an excellent place to improve your status as a civil servant."

"But there should be conditions, right?" Tian Heng asked doubtfully: "If a civil servant can work in the Yin Division, then his status will probably be too high."

"Well, political performance is the key!" Chen Qing said with a smile: "If you want to improve the civil service system, you must have sufficient political performance and good public opinion. The consul is elected every three years, and his political performance and performance will be assessed at that time. The reputation of the people will be assessed by the local underworld and the newly established officials, and the people will also have the right to vote at the three-year general meeting. "

"Those who have outstanding political achievements and good reputation among the people, even if they cannot be promoted, can have the opportunity to enter the underworld and manage the city god of a county. If they are willing to continue to manage a larger state in the world, they will have the opportunity to become the underworld of a state."

"This" Tian Heng hesitated and asked curiously: "It is indeed a good idea at first, but...what about later? There should not be enough positions in the underworld for those civil servants who keep coming?"

"Why not?" Chen Qing looked at the other party.

"Aren't the city gods of the underworld always appointed?" Tian Heng's heart suddenly jumped.

"I never said that." Chen Qing smiled.

Tian Heng was stunned. He always thought that there was no limit on the life span of the underworld, because he could grant others a higher underworld life span, but couldn't he maintain a permanent underworld life span?

As if seeing through what the other party was thinking, Chen Qing immediately said: "You think too much. How could such an important place as the underworld be controlled permanently? Do you think it is feasible?"

"Uh" Tian Heng lowered his head. As a subordinate, he certainly hoped it was feasible, but... as a reference for the entire force, permanently controlling a position without circulation is of course more disadvantageous than beneficial!

"May I ask, how long is the life span of the Lord of the Underworld?"

"It depends on the position of the god." Chen Qing smiled and said: "The higher the position of the god, the longer the life span, but the position cannot be held forever. Take the Lord of the Underworld in the prefecture as an example. The life span of the underworld is about a thousand years or more, but his term of office cannot be a thousand years. It is rotated every ten years. If there is no real position during the rotation, it is a Yin God without a position. You can choose to continue to stay in the underworld to practice and improve, or you can choose to reincarnate."

"Reincarnation?" Tian Heng frowned: "Reincarnation is the path that most people are willing to take, right? Would the former Lord of the Underworld be willing to reincarnate?"

"Yes." Chen Qing smiled and said: "The life span of the God of the Underworld will come to an end anyway , the earlier you reincarnate, the more rewards you will receive from the gods. With luck, your qualifications and luck will be better, and you will be able to make further progress in the future! "

"Where else can you go?" Tian Heng asked in confusion: "If you become the highest Lord of the Underworld, or the Lord of the West Sea like me, then it's the end, right? Reincarnation is just another journey, right?"

"The road has no end." Chen Qing smiled and said: "This world is bigger than you think, there is a wider world outside, you will understand in the future, everything here is just the beginning!"

When these words came out, not only Tian Heng, but also Ao Zhen, who was originally listening to it for fun, also had his eyes lit up.

A wider world?

Outside the sky?

Ao Zhen stared at Chen Qing intently. The Dragon Palace had long recorded that outside this world, there was a nearly infinite world, and in that world, the world they were in was as small as a speck of dust.

But that is the world outside the sky. Even though the Dragon Palace has existed for countless years, no one has ever dared to go out, even if they are at the level of Dragon King, because outside the sky. In addition to the vast world, there are also very terrifying things. Those giant pythons in the Tianmang Palace that are more powerful than the Dragon King are said to be just bait for other things outside the sky!

Is Chen Qing's future plan actually outside the sky?

Thinking of this, Ao Zhen's eyes had an inexplicable light. If it is true

"I will go back to Jiangnan first. You and Wei Gongcheng will manage the follow-up of the southeast first. This matter will be discussed again later." Chen Qing looked at the sky that was about to light up and said.

"Okay, then I will send you off, my lord." Tian Heng saluted hurriedly.

Chen Qing nodded, and the next second, he turned into a white light and disappeared on the spot.

Tian Heng took a look and knew that Chen Qing used the art of divine presence. He was puzzled. The art of divine presence consumes the power of faith very much. He usually doesn't want to use it. Moreover, the distribution of the underworld in the southeast this time is so important that he didn't stay to preside over the overall situation. You know, the Shen family is eyeing it here.

At this time, he went back directly. Did something more important happen inside Jiangnan?

——

In Liuzhou Prefecture, Chen Qing turned into a white light and descended directly into the courtyard. He didn't even have time to say hello to his old mother, and he hurried to the academy.

In the academy, Jiang Xiaoling was waiting for Chen Qing in a courtyard early.

"You used the spell left for you to notify me temporarily, but what's the important matter?" Chen Qing looked at the other party, and he probably guessed what happened in his heart, otherwise he wouldn't be so anxious to come back.

Sure enough, he heard the answer he expected in the next second.

"Commander of the Central China Military Region of the Federation: Mr. Zhang Zhengyuan, I want to meet you!"

There are two more updates in the evening
