As February enters, all government offices across the country are busy conducting assessments.
Everyone, as long as they are from the seventh rank upwards, need to be evaluated by their superiors, and then the results of each year's evaluation will be recorded in their personal records. In the future, whenever promotions or rewards are involved, they will be consulted for reference.
Therefore, evaluation is also called official evaluation.
Generally, low-level official reviews are completed at the end of the year, around November and December. The higher you go, the later the official evaluation results will come out.
For a fourth-rank official like Shen Hao, the official evaluation usually ends in mid-February. Big bosses like Pang Ban and Cao Guobang will not finish until the Blue Moon Festival.
The reason is also simple. Things are done by the people at the grassroots level. After the people at the grassroots level report their achievements for the year, the people at the top will have something to prove their achievements, right? As you progress up level by level, there will naturally be differences in time.
Although Shen Hao's official evaluation has not been approved, there is no problem in getting an "excellent" or "excellent" rating. The Ye Lansheng series of cases he had hosted previously were enough to fully take his credit for this year. So he was not in a hurry at all.
However, the three deputy commanders under Shen Hao and the three deputy Qianhu in Jingxi had different moods.
Jingxi is the place where Shen Hao made his fortune, and also where his teacher Jiang Cheng made his fortune, so he values it the most. In order to have absolute control over the Black Flag Camp here, the Black Flag Camp in Jingxi does not have a deputy commander until now. Daily affairs are handled by Wang Yiming, Tang Qingyuan, and Chen Sheng, and Shen Hao is personally in charge. Therefore, the official evaluation of these three people was given by Shen Hao.
The deputy commanders of Jingdong, Jingbei, and Jingnan were also holding fire because of the previous internal purges. They hoped that their efforts in the purges would be recognized by the superiors, but they were not sure if they would be enough. "excellent"? The mood is mostly expectant and apprehensive.
It was not until the third day of February that Shen Hao summoned the three deputy commanders and Wang Yiming to the Yamen meeting hall and distributed the results of the official evaluation in public. Everyone's hanging hearts dropped.
However, after the official review was issued, what was left was another confidential meeting. The sudden falling of the covering circle made everyone in the conference hall feel nervous except Shen Hao.
"You should seize the time to circulate these contents first."
What Shen Hao brought out was the information about the Zhengyang Sect that he had previously obtained from Lingxiao Palace. He sifted out some of the contents and took a copy of the remaining rubbings for circulation at the meeting. The matter of the evil monks is no small matter and requires great efforts from the Black Flag Camp. At the same time, we can also take a look at the qualities of these people here.
The six people quickly circulated it, all with unhappy expressions on their faces and frowning.
When Wang Yiming finished reading and handed the rubbings back to Shen Hao, Shen Hao raised a wisp of fire to burn the rubbings and asked expressionlessly: "Tell me what you think."
After the six people were silent for a moment, Lin Chen was the first to start. In fact, there were Tang Qingyuan and Wang Yiming who still wanted to speak, but they were of lower status. In this situation, they had to wait for the three deputy commanders to finish speaking before it was their turn.
"Sir, I think this kind of pest of the country cannot be tolerated in the slightest! After I returned, I immediately started to investigate all the monks in Jingbei. I first screened the casual cultivators and officials with cultivation experience in various yamen, and then gave them to each The sect went to post a notice asking them to investigate the evil cultivators themselves..."
Lin Chen's idea is very simple, that is: I will hit wherever the adults point me.
Even though he is so busy with missionary work in remote areas, secret investigation of the Qin family, and some daily pressing cases that he has to keep his feet off the ground, his attitude must be correct. Moreover, Lin Chen said "start investigating when we get back" rather than "investigate immediately when we get back", which still left some room for himself.
And a discerning person will know at a glance that although this kind of thing is definitely not a common situation, it involves so many aspects that it will be troublesome to check them one by one, and may also be resented by various yamen. So I can only take my time.
At the beginning of Lin Chen's words, the remaining two deputy commanders also expressed their thoughts one after another. The lengths were different, but the meaning was actually the same as Lin Chen's. It could be summed up in one sentence: Whatever the adults say, we will do it.
After these three people finished speaking, basically all the methods and ideas for dealing with it were exhausted. When it was the turn of Wang Yiming and the others, they could only snap and say, "My subordinates second my opinion."
Regardless of whether they hold it in or not, for Wang Yiming and the other three, being able to participate in a meeting of this level is already a blessing. Do you still want to be in the limelight at the meeting? Even if you have something to say, you have to think twice before daring to venture out bit by bit.
After listening to everyone's opinions, Shen Hao raised three fingers and said: "Three requirements. First, after you go down, put this errand in your goals for this year. I don't ask you to do it immediately, but Lan Yue After the holiday, I hope some news will reach my ears.
Second, you don’t need to hide this matter, you can just use the Black Flag Camp token to ask the various yamen to cooperate. Remember, try to do all screenings during office hours. The more people around you, the better. Do you know what I mean?
Third, the files are independent. As a normal matter, there must be a rules for this matter. Each locality must think of it themselves, and then summarize it and return it to you in a unified manner. "
"My subordinate understands!"
The matter is a secret, but it is not top secret, especially after taking action, there is no need to do it in secret. On the contrary, if you do it openly, the objections will naturally disappear when the bug is caught, and on the contrary, you will move closer to the Black Flag Camp on your own initiative.
Who wants to be a colleague who gets along day and night with a pseudo-evil monk hiding in the crowd? Aren't you afraid of having your soul sucked out?
It's like if you go to someone's house and say you want to catch a thief, the other person will definitely be furious at first, thinking that you are looking for trouble, and they won't give you a good look anyway. When a thief is caught, and he is an evil thief who kills people and sells goods, the situation will be reversed.
The secret meeting interspersed with the official review meeting was quickly explained, and the formal warrant would be conveyed later in the form of a copper bar. The meeting was for ventilation.
After the others left, Wang Yiming found Shen Hao's mansion.
"Sir, the horse racing business has come to an end." Wang Yiming came in, closed the door, and got straight to the point. He was here to report on his previous investigation into the horse racing business owned by the Qin family's in-laws.
A frame-up and slander case involving Hu Tian's nephew who was greedy for gain finally fell on the Qin family in Jingbei. Secretly, there was also news that Feilong had given Shen Hao from the black market. The two together had caused a stir. Shen Hao was very interested and made a preliminary judgment of "smuggling grain and iron to the barbarians".
Of course, this judgment only swirled in Shen Hao's mind and he was not sure, because there were still some things that he couldn't understand yet.
Therefore, whether it is Lin Chen, Wang Jian or Wang Yiming, Shen Hao is ready to let them dig deeper to see who can find the breakthrough point first. The Feilong in the black market can just be a pair of eyes, keeping an eye on the Qin family's secret business trends.
