Chapter 39: The Ministry of Education is the Best!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Rosen listened to Lorne’s analysis and could not help but become a little anxious.

Looking at Lorne’s stance, it seemed that he had recognized the power of the decision-making department and the ease of handling matters.

This would not do. He was the first minister to realize that Lorne had amazing potential. Could it be that he could not call dibs on this young talent first?

Rosen immediately coughed lightly from Lorne’s long speech.

“My dear brother, although I am only a businessman, and I have never been an official, nor do I know anyone who is an official. But I am old and have some experience when it comes to handling matters. Your choice obviously sounds like a big problem.”

Lorne immediately looked at Rosen with a puzzled gaze. If one had to put it that way, it actually made some sense. After all, the older one was the wiser one would become. Although he was well-versed in history and was familiar with historical events, in terms of social experience, he still needed to listen to the words of older people.

“In the decision-making department, everyone in there has a high position and all of them have the trust of the king. But there’s a huge disadvantage. For a young person like you, it’s hard to get in, even if you get in, it’s hard to get out.

“Everything can be deduced just by imagination and analysis. All the officials in the decision-making department must have at least a certain level of experience before they can get in.

“And after you get into the decision-making department, you have to think on how to continue to be promoted. Where do you get your promotion from? When you think about it, you will only rely on accumulating experience and wasting your time.

“After all, what credit can you get just by making decisions? If you make good decisions, it’s all because of the king’s ideas being outstanding. It has nothing to do with the person from the decision-making department.

“If you make bad decisions instead, then the blame will be placed on you. In this way, how many years will it take for you to become a court official who is truly in charge of something commendable?

“Will you still be young when that time comes? I’m afraid you’ll also turn into one of the old men.”

In order to dispel Lorne’s yearning for the decision-making department, Rosen did not hesitate to tarnish the department’s reputation at all.

It was as if this department was the most difficult and tiring department in the entire palace, and the one that did not have the chance to be promoted. If the decision-making department officials knew that Rosen was tarnishing their image, they would probably drive a carriage to his residence and beat him up immediately.

Of course, Rosen did not care too much. At this juncture, he had to do it first.

If he missed such a talent, the loss would be greater than anything else. It would be better for him to be beaten up if he got to take Lorne under his care.

…

Reality proved that Rosen’s trick was effective.

Lorne showed a considerable degree of hesitation. He understood the division of responsibilities in the Lolan Empire’s system of three officials and six departments, as well as the general composition and grade officials.

However, as for the assessment system for the promotion of officials within the decision-making department, he had yet to understand it in detail.

If it was really as Rosen had explained, and he needed to have enough experience to rise, then he would not want to waste time being stuck in something like this.

Lorne asked hesitantly, “Is it really as sinister as you say?”

Seeing Lorne’s hesitant look, Rosen was secretly delighted. Then, he slapped his thigh.

“Damn, you still don’t believe me. What relationship do we have? Would I really say something like that would harm you? If you rise to the top one day, won’t us brothers also benefit from it?

“These are from all my years of experience. You must know that what I say is the truth. What I’m sharing with you right now is lifelong knowledge.

“Also, you might as well find out more about those who hold high positions in the decision-making department. Which one of them doesn’t have experience in the administrative department? That’s why I said, if you wish to hold a higher position, you should at least go to the six administrative departments.”

Lorne fell into deep thought again, and his clogs in his mind started to spin rapidly. After a long time, he asked the old man once more, “Rosen, in your opinion, there should be a hierarchy among the six departments. Which department is better?”

Rosen was overjoyed. As he hoped, the question hit the nail on the head. He was waiting for Lorne to give him a question like this. Suppressing the joy in his heart, Rosen spoke seriously, “In my opinion, joining the Ministry of Education would be the most suitable for you.”

As the head of the Ministry of Education, Rosen did not beat around the bush and directly brought up his department. However, before he could explain the reason, Lorne shook his head.

“No, no. There’s no point in going to the Ministry of Education. I’d better think about something else.”

This time, Rosen was so anxious that he wanted to pull the hair from his head. He had just said that the decision-making department was not the best, so why did he have such a big opinion of the Ministry of Education?

“Lorne, you have to listen to me. The Ministry of Education is a really good place. It’s much better than the other five departments in the administrative department.”

Lorne did not respond to this, but his eyes still showed his unwillingness and lack of interest.

Rosen did not care about that and could only continue to speak at the risk of his life.

“The Ministry of Education is in charge of the official titles of all the officials in the world. This is where the power of life and death is held. 

“All the officials that have a title, whether they are promoted, demoted, or transferred, will be assessed and decided by the Ministry of Education. The relevant documents will also be issued by the Ministry of Literature.

“This is no different from being superior to the other departments. After all, whether it is the Ministry of Industrials, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of War, or the Ministry of Finance, most of them are officials who have titles.

“These palace officials have to be more respectful when they meet the people from the Ministry of Education. That is why there is a saying that the Ministry of Education is the head of the six departments.

“And not only that, when it comes to official promotion, it’s like handing you a first-class ticket. I’ve heard people mentioning it before. As long as there are no serious official accidents within the area of responsibility, it’ll be considered a great merit.

“In this way, it won’t take many years for you to become the main person in charge of the Ministry of Education, and you’ll be considered a true high official in the palace.

“Tell me, if you don’t go to such a good place, why bother going to other departments that don’t have much authority and have no way of getting a promotion?”

Rosen had spent a lot of effort in order to get Lorne to work for him. Today was the first time in so many years that he, as the head of the Ministry of Education, had praised the department under his jurisdiction to this extent.

It seemed that in the entire palace, only this department was the best, the rest would not be comparable as to how great his department is.

Even as he spoke, Rosen felt a little embarrassed. There were some so-called benefits of being in the Ministry of Education that even he did not experience, so he just added some lies here and there for Lorne to feel enticed with this offer.

However, Rosen was thick-skinned and had good acting skills, so he did not care so much about it at all..
