Thanks, Phil adn Jarv.
Peer comment(s):

agree Phil Hand : Most of the people who live in Weili, to the south of the town, are uncomplaining, hard-working, law-abiding farming folk. There are a few bigwigs who make a living off government business, a few low-grade officials, but most families are poor labourers.

Government officials

百度对“官业”的解释为:
(1).官府里的事务;公务
(2).为官的业绩
(3).政府的产业

但是从该处理解,官业应该是指人,因为人才能成为势豪,所以我对“官业”的理解为当官的
