Chapter 197 - 197 193 The New Prefect
?Chapter 197: Chapter 193: The New Prefect Chapter 197: Chapter 193: The New Prefect At the beginning of July, the newly appointed Prefect of An Yuan State finally took office.
This new Prefect was named Lin Shoude, a thirty-nine-year-old who had earned his degree fourteen years ago, and had served as a County Magistrate in Jiangnan for twelve years. Although there had been reassignments, he had never been promoted before.
This time, he was promoted to Prefect of An Yuan State at the Secondary Fifth rank, but this promotion was clearly not a blessing.
What place is Jiangnan? It is the wealthiest region in Da Rong.
And what about Chongshan Town?
A military border town.
In a border town, there is little scope for a civil servant to exert influence.
In cities like An Yuan City, there are figures such as Yang Zhenshan as the garrison officer and the Military Equipment Department government office. If it were in the core areas of Da Rong, most cities would not have a garrison, and the city’s defense and public security would mostly be handled by the local garrison. In these cases, the local officials usually held a dominant position when dealing with the garrison.
It was different in Chongshan Town, where the local officials not only lacked a dominant stance but also had to cooperate with the garrison and Camp Soldiers in many aspects,
such as repairing Guard City, providing supplies, assisting the garrison in transporting military equipment and supplies, and so on. The garrison could enlist local officials to provide labor for these activities.
