Chapter 2484 Stripping the Cocoon ([-])

Xu Tong breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "There are left, middle and right in everyone, and the attitudes of the forces in Guangzhou are also divided into three types: those who actively approach us, those who are ambiguous and have unclear positions, and those who are implicitly hostile and do not agree with us. Cooperation. But under the strong deterrence of the Fubo Army, there has been no direct confrontation or rebellion." A burst of low laughter came from the conference room amidst the voice.

Xu Tong also smiled and continued: "At present, it seems that most of the gentry belong to the latter two types. On the fundamental issue, we have irreconcilable conflicts of interest with them. In order not to touch the nerves of Guangzhou landlords and prevent them from overreacting. At this stage, our land policies are all vague, that is, basically continuing the land ownership rights of the Ming Dynasty without making major changes. The purpose is to guide their funds and personnel to develop in industry and commerce. This process is very slow. So for now , their attitude is still skeptical and neutral.

"Of course it doesn't matter if you doubt neutrality. The problem is that our rule over the grassroots is very weak at this stage. A lot of basic work must be carried out through local gentry and clan elders. Although most of these people listen to us, the actual power is also controlled In the hands of these people, some of the militia organizations and the local national army are also controlled by them in disguise.

"Guangdong and Guangxi have always been one of the regions with the strongest clan power. Often a village has the same surname, and family members in each village and county are unusually united. This has strengthened the voice of the gentry clan in local governance. The new land policy at this stage It is still in the stage of discussion and has not been officially introduced, but obviously this state cannot last forever, and the Guangzhou gentry have a large amount of private land in the surrounding areas. They are very sensitive to this issue and it is the fundamental interest of each family. This is also The biggest hidden danger of our current grassroots governance.”

His speech was very fluent and carefully prepared to fully reflect his level of "controlling the overall situation".

He scanned the people in the conference room, paused, and continued: "Because Guangzhou and Lingao have close commercial and trade contacts, a large amount of Lingao-related information has been introduced to Guangdong with the merchants, including information on land clearing and land taxation. At the same time, there is no corresponding position for the old forces in the power structure of the Song Dynasty regime. The loss of rights and the uncertainty of loss of interests make them full of anxiety and anxiety. The result of not sharing the world with the gentry is obviously what they do not want to see And in order to balance wealth, we now basically pay more for more income and less income for less income, and high-income earners have to bear greater social responsibilities. The old forces exempted from corvee and enjoying privileges left the impression that they exorbitantly levied taxes and treated scholars and scholars as enemies. Among them, there were many gentry who had usurped fame. In this sense, the so-called non-support is actually a A disguised form of passive opposition."

Yang Cao gestured to Xu Tong to signal him to pause, and immediately everyone in the venue focused their attention on her.This made Xu Tong somewhat unhappy.

Yang Cao glanced at the venue and said slowly: "After entering Guangzhou, we have never attacked the famous local gentry. Illusion of self-power and fame, feeling that there is room for bargaining with the government, playing tricks with us face to face and behind the back in the implementation of many policies, and at the same time breeding undue petty thoughts. Witchcraft case and tax rectification The case brought them a wake-up call and deterred some people, but it also gave some people a sense of "crisis" and moved their minds that they shouldn't."

She paused for a moment, as if to give everyone enough time to absorb the meaning.

"The recent slow increase of anti-Senate speeches and petty actions around Guangzhou and in the city represents the expansion of this trend. It means that in the past we were a little too tolerant of the Guangzhou gentry. We did not really realize the power of the Senate. We did not pay enough price to They don’t know how to be grateful for the preferential treatment they have received. Therefore, in the future, we will take joint actions with the Guangzhou Municipal Government, the Army, the National Army, the Police Station, and the Investigation Section of the Finance and Taxation Bureau to seize some typical cases and deal with some stubborn, hardcore, and typical people. We will launch a strike against the anti-Song gentry, to deter the anti-Song forces and potential hostile elements in and around the city, and to win over those vacillating old centrist forces through this operation. We are not trying to knock everyone down, nor are we It may knock everyone down, what we have to do is to oppress them, push them, slap them through the facts, force them to wake up, help them recognize the general trend, let them see the right direction, as long as they finally agree with our ideas and support us Even if they have made mistakes and made detours, as long as they finally stand under the same banner as us, we will accept them as our fellow travelers with an open heart, and we cannot relax our vigilance at the same time. Beware of weak-willed shakers. The success of our career has never been based on concessions and compromises. If there is a stone in our way, we will kick it away. If it refuses to be kicked away, we will smash it. It. This operation is of great importance. Director Wu and Director Zhao will come to Guangzhou to take command in person at that time. There are many difficulties ahead, and I will share my encouragement with you.”

After finishing speaking, Yang Cao lightly waved her hand to signal Xu Tong to continue the meeting. Seeing that everyone looked away, Xu Tong went back to the blackboard in front of the meeting room, picked up the bamboo pointer, and began to explain loudly.

According to the situation collected by the Political Security Bureau from various aspects, the Liang family looms behind many major cases, but no valid accusation evidence has been collected so far.This is the most frustrating thing for all powerful departments.

If you don't speak outside, you can't speak inside.In terms of confidentiality, the Liang family has achieved a near-perfect level.Not even a single word could come out of a piece of paper.In terms of body, it is surprisingly soft.No matter how deliberately provocative and provocative, the Liang family is neither angry nor angry.Strictly "following the rules" - Speaking of which, they are now more familiar with the various laws and regulations of the Senate and news vocabulary than many naturalized cadres, and some naturalized cadres who do not grasp the regulations firmly will be refuted by them.Sometimes, because Guihuamin cadres are not calm enough, they do some things that go too far, and even complain directly to the bureau.It can be said to be reasonable and restrained, neither humble nor overbearing.It made the veterans of several departments feel a little embarrassed.

In this way, the various departments can’t find faults arbitrarily. After all, the big families in Guangzhou are watching, and the Senate is the most concerned about “ruling the country according to the law.” Cold Heart.It also damaged the consistent reputation of the Senate.

Recently, the counterfeit currency case that has gradually begun to spread has attracted the attention of various powerful departments.Not only has the number of counterfeit coins on the market increased, but their quality has also continued to improve.

Although there was no evidence to implicate the Liang family, all departments still turned their attention to the Liang family.

Xu Tong reported the current situation of the counterfeit currency case.

"Currently the situation of counterfeit currency collected by various departments is as follows: counterfeit currency has appeared all the coins issued by the Reserve Bank of China and all the coupons of large-value banknotes. And some small-value coupons have sporadically appeared. From the quality point of view, there are also great differences. Substantial improvement. It can be felt that they are constantly improving. From these improvements, we can see that there should be only one counterfeit currency gang, they are well organized and have a clear division of labor, and some of them are highly skilled craftsmen in charge of technical work."

Everyone listened carefully.

"There is a feature that the comrades of the Bank and the Finance and Taxation Bureau reminded us. That is, judging from the collected counterfeit coins, it can be said that the counterfeiters have worked hard on the counterfeit coins, and the manpower and material resources used are amazing. And the counterfeit coins we have found so far Judging from the quantity and the estimated number of counterfeit currency popular on the market. Their counterfeiting is very uneconomical, and it can even be said to be a loss. Therefore, it is impossible to purely make a profit, and it is more likely to have some kind of political intention. Mooju thinks We should file and investigate this case as a political case, which I think is completely appropriate."

Yang Cao interjected: "I personally think that this incident may not be as simple as the participation of the Liang family. It may be a large gathering of various anti-senatorial forces inside and outside Guangzhou. And they probably got the so-called 'stone'. Weng's support—he is the real mastermind behind the scenes!"

Xu Tong continued: "Another thing we are worried about is that it's just that they have invested so much in counterfeit currency, and it seems that the loss outweighs the gain. Does it include other important actions that have not been discovered?"

The heavy wooden doors of the meeting room were closed.Xu Tong's words echoed in the room.

"At present, the behavioral characteristics of various anti-Song forces mainly include..."

"The targets we have initially identified are as follows."

"The initial course of action is..."

"Everyone express their opinions..."

The four-hour long meeting was over, and the participants left in twos and threes. The smoke in the conference room with the door open gradually dissipated, leaving only an ashtray full of cigarette butts on the table.

Yangcao stretched vigorously, lit a match and lit a lady's sacred ship, and took a deep breath. The cool mint aroma made her lungs feel slightly paralyzed, and she comfortably moved her body backwards. Leaning on the wicker chair, closing his eyes, enjoying a rare moment of tranquility.

Outside the window, dark clouds crowded the entire sky, shrouding Guangzhou in a shadow. There was a faint sound of thunder in the sky, and a trace of beating lightning was faintly visible in the thick clouds. The curtains in the living room are raised high, flying and fluttering.Yang Cao slowly opened her eyes, looked at the outside world, and said softly, "It's going to rain."

Guangzhou is still hustle and bustle, but the Valkyries with swords are slowly stepping onto the execution platform.
