The Austrian government has been busy lately, and the war has ended with the promise of a reward for military merit, which must be honored; The inheritances that have just been taken over from the Church must also be taken care of; The popularization of compulsory education also requires the vigorous cooperation of local governments......

There are many things to do in the government, and naturally there is a shortage of manpower, and since there is a shortage of people, it is necessary to recruit from outside.

There may be a shortage of any kind of talent in this world, but there will be no shortage of people who want to be officials.

Of course, there are exceptions in places where the conditions are bad, but in Austria this is absolutely not possible.

I don't know how many aristocratic children are unemployed at home, struggling to find opportunities but can't, and slowly degenerate into rice borers.

Now that the opportunity has come, it is natural to join the ruling group.

Don't think that grassroots civil servants are not popular, it is not easy for the declining aristocracy to find a decent job.

Austria is conservative, and the vast majority of the children of the aristocracy cannot afford to work for the capitalists, which will damage their family reputation.

They would rather join the army and work their way up the ladder than be paid a good salary under the capitalists, which would make them feel insulted to their dignity.

At first, Franz proposed a national civil service examination, which was met with immediate collective opposition from the government. After analyzing the actual situation, he gave up this tempting idea as well.

There are not many intellectuals in these years, they are nothing more than aristocrats, capitalists, middle class, and the children of commoners are very rare, and if there is really Franz, they would not dare to use them.

To be a good monarch, you must first ensure the loyalty of your subordinates. As for those who are capable, ordinary civil servants need to have the ability to do anything, as long as their IQ is on the passing line and they can carry out the orders of their superiors, they can be competent.

So this time it is still selected among the children of the nobility, if you look at it comprehensively, the overall level of ability of the children of the nobility is higher, and they have also accepted the life experience passed down by some of their parents, which is not comparable to the outbreak.

Of course, everyone still has to give the emperor's face, and the official examination must also be held, but this is a civil service examination with unique Austrian characteristics, and most people are excluded from the qualifications.

For example, the academic requirements are to start in middle school, pass the social knowledge level test, political review (the three views are correct, there is no record of bad speech, and the three generations of ancestors have no illegal and criminal records), and the industry circumvention system (parents and relatives are engaged in the industry, and children are not allowed to refer to supervisory positions......

If there is no green light for the children of the nobility to go directly to the second round, then this civil service exam is generally fair.

At least in terms of reason, the government's restrictions are still in the past. After the newspaper published these restrictions, public opinion was in an uproar.

To Franz's surprise, such a blatant exclusion condition was seen by the outside world as a major step forward in the Austrian government's reform, and public opinion spoke highly of it.

If he wasn't sure that he didn't manipulate public opinion, he would have suspected that all of these praises were trolls.

It is not that there is no opposition, and many young students have opinions, feeling that their participation in demonstrations and criticism of the government may become an obstacle to their application for the civil service.

Of course, their opinions can only be held in their hearts, and since the Ministry of Education has strengthened the management of the quality of school education, their schoolwork has increased a lot.

The magic weapon of the examination was introduced by Franz into the Austrian education system, with a monthly exam, a mid-term exam every six months, and an annual exam every year.

The results of each exam will be publicized, and those who are not afraid of losing face can try, and the results during the school will be noted on the future graduation certificate.

If you fail three times in a row, prepare to repeat a grade. If you can't repeat a grade, you have to wait for the school to persuade you to quit.

Of course, rich and willful local tyrants can continue to play, if you don't want to repeat the grade to give money, just pay 5,000 dong for the first time, 10,000 dong for the second time, and 20,000 dong for the third time......

If you have the money, you can buy it all the way, and Austrian universities don't mind selling diplomas. If you have enough money, you can change your performance in school.

Under the pressure of the Ministry of Education, Austrian students spend every day in "happy" learning.

Dare to skip class? Expel directly, try it if you have the guts, what will be the good consequences after being expelled from school.

The most restricted bourgeoisie, this time collectively silent, and the Vienna government has not been targeting them for a day or two, with a whole host of restrictive measures.

No way, my colleagues planned the damn March Revolution and succeeded in angering the Austrian government, even though those bastards were dead and running, but the government obviously still had a grudge?

Everyone is a smart person with rich experience in social struggle, and they know that they can't take the lead at this time, and even if they have any ideas, they must wait for the limelight to pass.

Franz had anticipated all of these things, and his greatest concern was the opposition to the privileges of the nobility, which would lead to civil unrest.

Originally, the nobles had the advantage, and they directly entered the second round, which simply did not leave a chance for others.

As it turned out, he just overthought it. The ideological consciousness of the broad masses of Austrians is not so high. No matter what conditions are set, it is impossible for them to take their turn, and it is not their business to hang high.

As for the disguised prohibition of capitalists from becoming government officials, everyone is in full agreement. These guys are already very dark, if they become officials again, what will they do?

Well, since everyone doesn't have an opinion, Franz treats everyone as if they don't have an opinion.

The matter was so decided, whether it was a question exam, a direct interview, how to recruit people in various departments, Franz didn't bother to ask, he just wanted the result.

The bureaucrats are not stupid, and the people they are recruiting now are to do things, and they are low-level civilian officials, so how can they get a bunch of masters to come in and cause trouble?

If they don't do a good job, it means that they will be held accountable by their superiors, and the Austrian government does not have a temporary staff to use to top the cylinder, and the subordinates are not in a good position, and the direct leaders are unlucky.

Since Prime Minister Felix came to power, the ranks of the Austrian bureaucracy have been purified, and at this time, the government's efficiency has not improved by a single star.

……

Schönbrunn Palace, located southwest of Vienna, was built in the 17th century and was expanded several times before being completed during the reign of Queen Marie Theresia.

With 1,441 rooms and a total area of 26,000 square kilometers, it has a variety of regional cultural styles, second only to the Palace of Versailles in terms of luxury.

Franz was born in Schönbrunn Palace, probably influenced by the memories of his predecessor, and had a unique affection for the place, and lived here permanently after succeeding to the throne.

The palace specializes in oriental classical architecture, such as Chinese-style rooms inlaid with rosewood, ebony, and ivory, and Japanese-style rooms decorated with lacquer and lacquer.

The interior of the room is also decorated in an oriental style, with porcelain inlays on the walls and ceiling. Among the dazzling ceramic furnishings, there are Chinese celadons, Ming Dynasty Wanli colored porcelain plates and cuohua vases.

These things can get rid of the dick silk career by taking any one of them before crossing, but now they are placed in front of him wholesale.

Aside from the initial excitement, Franz felt little more. What about antiques? At his status, as long as it is something he has used, it will be an antique cultural relic.

The premise is that he will continue to succeed, and if he fails, the value of these things will be greatly reduced.

Franz knew that the lavish Schönbrunn Palace was in fact a work of ruin. At the time of its design, Schönbrunn Palace was as large and luxurious as the Palace of Versailles, but due to limited financial resources, the original design did not meet expectations.

As a disciplined pick-up man, Franz doesn't mind completing the original design, of course, this is a matter of the future, and he is reluctant to throw money at it now.

I don't know when Franz liked to read a book and newspaper under a huge Tsubaki tree, drinking tea.

"Your Majesty, Prince Wendy Schretz asks to see you."

The maid's crisp sound woke up the imaginative Franz.

"Bring him here, and add a chair by the way." Franz commanded

This is his respect for the ministers, in informal occasions everyone is very casual when they are together, the chair is placed there to sit casually, coffee, tea, juice like, he instructs the maid to take it.

Unless it's the first time we're meeting, Franz will greet you personally. The back is all about what you like, don't expect His Majesty the Great Emperor to greet you every day.

Prince Wendy Schretz is clear about Franz's way of doing things, and the big nobles naturally have the demeanor of the big nobles.

After a salute, he sat down on the chair next to him, and asked the maid for a cup of coffee, before he spoke:

"Your Majesty, you see that all government departments are expanding their personnel, and our retired officers also need to be resettled, why don't you let them fill some positions?"

In and out of phase, this is the usual operation in Austria. In the case of Franz's current cabinet, all of them were from military backgrounds.

This was the choice of the vast majority of the nobility in Germany, and the adult children had to go through the army, even if it was only a nominal service.

In such a general environment, Wu Zhuanwen naturally does not have any obstacles. Prince Wendy Schretz made this request because he wanted to open the back door.

"In principle, there is no problem, but what position they are suitable for still has to be decided after assessment." Franz replied calmly

Prince Wendy Schretz continued to fight: "Your Majesty, these demobilized officers are all military merits, and they ......"

"I know all these things. It is for their own good that I feel that they should be put in the right position for themselves.

If you give them positions that you can't do, I don't think it's a reward, it's a trap for them.

The Austrian government is no longer the Austrian government of the past, and every employee in the government is now responsible for his or her own work.

If something goes wrong because of your own inability, you will also be held accountable, do you want these heroes to be discredited for the rest of their lives? Franz asked rhetorically

Perhaps feeling that his words were a bit heavy, Franz added: "Instead of saying this here, the War Department should conduct a training for retired officers, and when they are capable, can they still compete with others?" ”

Preferential treatment? Franz is indeed giving preferential treatment to soldiers, but the problem is that the basic principles cannot be lost, and the same conditions can be taken precedence. If you don't have the ability to do it, you can only do simple work.
