Back to the Republic of China as a commander

When Wang Zhenyu walked quickly into the hall of the No. [-] conference building, Wang Longzhong, the full-time vice chairman of the National Government who was about to be righted, Zhang Taiyan, the vice chairman and chairman of the Civil Affairs Committee, Xiong Xiling, the prime minister of the Political Council, Liang Qichao, the president of the Senate, and Hu Hanmin, the president of the Legislative Yuan. They all took the lead in applauding to welcome Wang Zhenyu's arrival.

At this moment, the whole of Nanjing understood who was the real boss in the national government, and it was none other than this 27-year-old young man in front of him.

After everyone was seated, Wang Zhenyu started talking to himself: "Suddenly decided to meet with you for this meeting. The main reason is that I have a few things to talk to you about. The first thing is to pay attention to the old Li Hongzhang, a Qing figure, made an objective and fair evaluation. My secretary, Chen Bulei, drafted a document. Everyone will circulate it later, and then reprocess it to restore the innocence and justice of history. The nation's humiliated dignitaries escape the judgment of history."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, thinking that Wang Zhenyu was going to talk about Sun Wen's problems after his illness, but this came up with the evaluation of Li Hongzhang, who was out of reach.Please, everyone in this room is engaged in politics. This kind of commentary is right or wrong, which is not something everyone should worry about!

Wang Zhenyu didn't care about everyone's attitude, but continued: "The second issue is the issue of agriculture, rural areas and rural areas. To be precise, our rural areas need to be reformed. This time I visited the countryside around Wuhan and found that in this rural area, the power of feudal clans is still strong, the income of farmers is still low, and their dependence on the land is still strong. After the chance of the European War took hundreds of thousands of strong men from this area, one can imagine what happened to other provinces. All of you here are the elites of the national government, and I want to hear everyone’s opinions.”

Hu Hanmin, who had finally persuaded Sun Wen to retire due to illness, now naturally stood up and opposed it unceremoniously, "Chairman Wang, if Hu remembers correctly, at this time last year, this land reform plan had already been announced once, but in You encountered many problems in the promotion, and then you stopped it yourself, why did you start the plan again after a year? This should give us a reasonable explanation or reason.”

Wang Zhenyu's state of mind at this time is quite different from the past. Before the assassination, he still had illusions about these historical figures in front of him. He always felt that they would serve the country and the people wholeheartedly. Politicians want to fight for power, and they don't even hesitate to kill themselves who give them power.My practice of continuously delegating power in the past is obviously playing a dangerous game of feeding a tiger with my body, so now Wang Zhenyu is going to gather power, and all of this must start with the land reform in front of him, because land is almost the core and most essential thing in Chinese society up.

"If you talk about learning, everyone here can be my teacher Wang Wenzheng. Don't be modest about this. I know how much ink I have. But there is one thing that you don't think as much as I do, so now it is I came to be the chairman of the committee, not you. You must want to know what it is, which is the way of rise and fall in history. I have read the history of the Ming Dynasty, and everyone said that the demise of the Ming Dynasty was really only because of the eunuchs Did it harm the country? Let’s take a look at why the Qing Dynasty, which was closest to us, collapsed?”

Before everyone could answer, Wang Zhenyu went on to say, "Actually, there is no one else, just a little bit, which is unpopular. Everyone will say that the one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world, but how many powerful people take the hearts of the people seriously? How many people take the hearts of the people seriously?" What has been figured out? Some people think that as long as the people have food to eat, the government will win the hearts of the people. This view cannot be said to be completely wrong, but it is by no means correct. People’s needs are generally stepped. When you are born, you want a daughter-in-law, and when you have a daughter-in-law, you want a baby, and then you want to be rich and honorable... The final ideal is the same as everyone here, to seek a world without shame, and to be famous in history."

Everyone laughed, and Wang Zhenyu himself laughed too.

"Eating and sleeping are only the basic needs. The development and progress of life is the core content of the needs. If you meet the core needs of most people, then you will win the hearts of the people and win the world. The establishment of all dynasties is to satisfy people Based on the basic needs, and their demise is without exception because their own system can not meet the core needs of the people. Take the Qing Dynasty as an example, the Eight Banners system is above all the people, and some people can be born There are no worries about food and clothing, and they love leisure and work hard. Some people are born to work hard, but they have no clothes and no food to eat. But poverty is not the most terrible thing, the most terrible thing is that there is no hope. Children who study hard can still gain fame through the imperial examinations, and they can be promoted by fighting bravely. I am still a soldier, but the military officer is a member of the military academy, mostly nepotism. Government-run enterprises, no matter how hard the children of ordinary people work, they are also contract workers, and their children are business executives casually. Such a suicide system However, the Manchu Qing government is still complacent, claiming to be learning from the New Deal of the Western powers. In fact, when you solidify the existence of all social classes, monopolize power and income, and cut off the channel for others to change their destiny, you are close to destruction Far away. And we, the National Socialist Party, have gained power today, so we must not follow the old path that our predecessors walked. Mourn for posterity."

As soon as Wang Zhenyu said this, everyone present nodded and exchanged opinions in low voices. Finance Minister Liao Zhongkai applauded excitedly.Only Hu Hanmin still frowned after hearing this and said, "What Chairman Wang said is true, but does it have anything to do with the land reform we are going to carry out?"

Wang Zhenyu said with a smile: "The development of this country is not only the responsibility of the knowledgeable and cultured people, but also the farmers who you despise. And I can clearly say that they should even bear the main responsibility. But if It is to put them in the countryside and tie them to the land. Their ability is only a few thousand catties of millet a year. But I want to tell you that farmers are just a profession, not an identity. It should be a normal phenomenon in the future social structure of our country. We need to build a system so that truly talented and capable people in our nation will not be buried because of their birth, family, background or relationship. Only in this way, our citizens will welcome our system and not be full of complaints and loss; only in this way, our citizens will identify with our country, and will not hang on to nothing. In history, 20 Manchuria After entering the customs, the [-] million Han people were helpless, and it was a profound lesson to let others slaughter them."

"Then may I ask Chairman, how should we carry out reforms in rural areas to realize your ideas and requirements just now?" Xiong Xiling interjected softly when he heard this, and it was the first time he found Wang Zhenyu so eloquent.

Wang Zhenyu stretched out three fingers: "Actually speaking, there are only four basic tasks. If they are done well, the idea I just had just hoped to be realized and can be realized. The first is to break the feudal clan power's rule over the countryside. status, the feudal clan system has stabilized the society to a certain extent, we do not deny this. But on the other hand, it also breeds many social problems, such as the control of the population, such as the replacement of the national law by the family law, which eventually leads to the eyes of the people. There is only a family but no country. And the system of county people governing counties that we are currently implementing has reached a bottleneck because of this feudal clan system. Not allowing others to put their hands into his territory, this is a very selfish small peasant consciousness. So my idea is to set up a rural police system, and let that family law be abolished first. As for the rural police, they all belong to the scope of police sent by the central government. Recruited from the local area, all of them are veterans, directly under the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Public Security. And the second is that the village level resolutely does not engage in a democratic election system, and even allows hereditary existence, allowing the existence of authoritarianism on the basis of not violating the law. I also have my point of view on this. Rural areas generally live in clusters, and we Chinese have always helped our relatives and not helped our relatives. Democracy in this kind of place will result in four different results. It is better not to do it. So according to the first Second, I also came up with the third idea. There is no administrative agency at the village level, but only service agencies. Usually, the village head or patriarch takes the lead in repairing roads, digging ditches, etc., and do not use administrative powers such as rent collection. Institutions such as the agricultural and fishery associations in various commercial towns can take over the work undertaken by the gentry in the previous dynasty. On the one hand, they help farmers produce and sell, and on the other hand, they contract some government functions. Years ago, it was all elected and managed by the farmers in the town where they lived. I even think that they should have a part of the development fund for low-interest loans to farmers. The fourth point is the most critical point. We only did the above three items. , it is only to alleviate the contradictions in the countryside, and it can play a very limited role in the development of the whole country. So for this last point, my idea is very clear. We must adopt various policies to turn our agriculture towards the farm. The direction of globalization, including a large amount of government agricultural subsidies. At the same time, we must find a way to introduce the resulting surplus agricultural population into the city, so that they can become the main force of industrial workers and consumption. Minister Cai of the Ministry of Education Pay attention, don't just pay attention to the investment in universities and basic education, but also set up more technical occupations dedicated to training industrial workers. I would like to remind everyone here that in the past year, we have participated in so many projects, Businessmen from Nanyang and Zhejiang have opened so many factories, and they all seem to be making money, but that is based on the surge in demand from the outbreak of the European War. Once the European War is over, the demand will inevitably turn from outward to inward, and the Nationalist government What needs to be done is to make the people rich, otherwise the result of insufficient consumer demand will be very serious. I will say so much. You can add up the specific methods. I will mention one last point. You should choose one first.provinces, such as Jiangxi Province. . . "
