Bingzhou does not feed idlers!
This is far from an empty phrase; it is a hard fact. Officials in Bingzhou not only have to handle their respective duties, but many of them even hold multiple posts simultaneously.
To get by in Bingzhou, merely doing your job well is just the baseline. With a pack of eager achievers setting the pace, keeping your head down and following the rules is tantamount to negligence and dereliction of duty.
