New Shun 1730

Talking about money is bound to "hurt feelings".

Money, power, interests, these are all economic issues.

Economic problems often turn into political disturbances and incidents.

For example, there were of course many reasons for the fall of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in later history, such as corruption, incompetence, reaction, national oppression, etc.

But which event is "Shots in Sarajevo"?

Sichuan-Hankou Railway, road protection movement.

But were the Sichuan-Hankow Railway and the road protection movement planned to be a big deal from the beginning?

Not really.

[Civilization fights for the road]

【Only fighting for the road, not against the government. Don’t burn churches, let alone gather in crowds to riot]

This was the initial demand, and it was just a very purely "economic issue."

Of course, if it were not for economic problems, there would not be so many people participating. The Comrade Baolu Association was established two months ago and has 200,000 members. How many people were there in Sichuan at that time? What is the participation ratio?

Economic factors aside, it is unlikely that so many people could gather in a short period of time. This ratio is already frighteningly high. 200,000 members of the Burundi Party directly overthrew the Russian Empire and the Provisional Government, and won the intervention and war. Among them, Ilyich believes that there are still 150,000 "wavering elements", the actual core. Just 50,000.

To put it simply, it means "making Sichuan people forced to save and buy shares to build roads."

As a result, the group of people who controlled the money "coveted other people's interest, and others coveted your principal", and the disaster was suddenly over.

At that time, the automobile industry was just emerging, and a group of "financiers" were engaged in "rubber concept stocks."

Empty.

After enclosing a piece of land, he dared to say that he was going to build the largest rubber plantation, hyping the concept like crazy.

100 taels of silver per share, with an interest of 12.5 taels for three months, which adds up to an annual return of 50% - it's obviously a game of drumming and passing flowers.

Issued in mid-February, 100 taels per share. On March 29, it had risen to 1,650 taels per share.

There is no need to say anything further, because you can imagine what will happen if this is done.

Everyone who enters the market, especially those who enter with large sums of money, knows that this is a game of drumming and passing flowers.

But everyone who enters the market feels that they are not the last one, but can earn interest. But in fact, most of the time, what people are targeting is your principal.

Don’t think here that the Chinese people at that time were stupid and had never seen this kind of game. To think this way is to underestimate the Chinese people.

In fact, when Li Xiucheng, the loyal king of the Kingdom of Heaven, moved to Jiangsu, the big businessmen among the Chinese people immediately saw the business opportunities - shouldn't "Long Hair" scare the rich to run to Shanghai? The housing prices in Shanghai are not allowed to take off? A large amount of land was hoarded to build real estate, but eventually it collapsed and countless people died.

Soon after, there was speculation on industrial stocks. Which one of the steamship bureau stocks, Kaiping Coal Mining stocks, Changle Copper Mining stocks, and Hefeng Copper Mining stocks had not been speculated to multiple times?

If you only look at the stock market in 1880, especially industrial stocks, then you may really think that the Qing Dynasty wants to rejuvenate and hide wealth among the people. Just based on the valuation of mining stocks in those years, you can just buy 12 Warrior-class ships. Ironclad ship. Of course, the final outcome is...

So, if you know how to play, you will already know how to play. It doesn’t mean you don’t understand it.

Throughout the dynasties, you have understood cultivated land as a "financial investment" of commercial capitalism. If you consider its financial attributes rather than the pure means of production attributes, you can easily understand many things. Why have all dynasties "emphasized agriculture and suppressed agriculture"? "Businessmen", and the flowers that businessmen play with one by one, are not a rare thing at all. Even before the advent of "foreign" stock trading, how did businessmen play with salt coupons, monopoly, speculation, and price differences?

Therefore, a few years after the industrial stock market crash, there was another wave of rubber concept stocks, which really made things happen.

Rubber concept stocks, within four months, sucked up 14 million taels of silver and then exploded.

The hard-earned money of Sichuan people who built the Sichuan-Hankou Railway was taken away by waves of financiers.

I have no money, what should I do?

You must know that this money was not purchased voluntarily, but was levied by Sichuan's "Thirty-one Tax" in a similar way to taxation. Men, women, old and young, those who are registered in the household basically have to raise money according to the head tax and mu tax.

Otherwise, it is impossible to say that the impact would be so wide. The Road Protection Association instantly gathered 200,000 people, and this ratio was already shocking compared to the population at that time.

Therefore, economic problems can easily cause political turmoil.

Especially in Dashun, this problem is even more serious.

At least, it is much more serious than most European countries at this time.

Because Dashun is a country where the awareness of "private ownership" is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, at least much more deeply than France at this time.

Lao Ma said that economists always deliberately confuse the two types of private ownership. The latter kind of private property must be built on the corpse of the former kind of private property.

These two types of private ownership are two different things.

And "private ownership" itself is another matter.

Dashun is not a capitalist country, because the cornerstone of social operation is not based on the latter type of private ownership eliminating the first type of private ownership.

However, Dashun is a very clear country with private ownership.

To put it simply, in France at this time, even the nobles did not actually own a piece of land that legally belonged to them and had clear property rights.

Here is an example to help you understand what "private ownership" means.

What is exclusive ownership of land, and why is it said that according to feudal law, the French nobles did not actually own a piece of land with clear property rights.

In other words, the French at this time were actually quite incomprehensible to "private ownership", but they were full of expectations.

For example, French farmers actually had some feudal rights, such as the right to glean.

After the harvest of this noble land, the farmers could go to pick up wheat ears.

Please note that the word here is "right", which is the right to glean.

Under real private ownership, such as Dashun.

Do you have the right to glean wheat ears on my land?

If I am a kind landlord, I can allow you to glean wheat ears on my land. However, it does not mean that you have the right to glean wheat ears in terms of legal theory, legal rights, and rights.

What does private ownership mean to be deeply rooted in people's hearts?

Let alone the completely exclusive ownership of this kind of land, even the trees on the roadside are privately owned. What belongs to the Zhang family belongs to the Zhang family, and what belongs to the Li family belongs to the Li family.

However, this real "private ownership" legal right was not understood by many farmers in France at that time.

For example, it often happens that the urban bourgeoisie in France actually "illegally" obtained the ownership of the land from the nobles - according to feudal legal theory, the nobles did not have full ownership of the land. For example, the French peasants' perpetual tenancy rights, gleaning rights, village common land, grazing rights, etc., these feudal rights, have you asked the peasants to transfer them? Why can you sell or rent this land to the bourgeoisie? You don't have clear property rights, you rent it out or sell it, isn't it "illegal"?

The bourgeoisie, of course, supports and understands private ownership.

So, after obtaining the land, the peasants no longer have the right to glean and graze on this land.

Then the peasants don't understand, why? Why is this land yours? Why do we have no right to glean and graze?

For example, village common land.

Wasteland, pasture, fields, etc., these, ownership, is not only the nobles, but also the village community, or the peasants, or the king. You can't tell who these public lands belong to - please note, it is neither collective nor national. The French king dared to say that the land was state-owned land, which could make the nobles chop off their heads.

The bourgeoisie opposed this kind of public land, believing that it would obviously hinder their management.

After the establishment of real private ownership in 1993, the legal rights of some lands were traced back like this: for example, the village community public land, which did not belong to the nobles at all, but it has been continuously occupied for more than 200 years, which is not yours at all.

Therefore, the Jacobins can defend their land distribution and land reform from the sacred perspective of private ownership: for example, the nobles' land was distributed to the peasants, which did not mean to destroy private ownership, but that in the past 200 years, these nobles stole the public land that did not belong to them, which was not originally the nobles', how could this be considered a violation of the sacred principle of private ownership? It just traced back 200 years.

The Napoleonic Code says: Ownership is the right to use, benefit from, and dispose of an object without any restrictions.

The great significance of 1993 in France and Europe is that it established true private ownership and solved the problem in France that "theoretically and legally, no one, including the king, owns a piece of land with clear property rights, real and full ownership."

The concept of private ownership has gradually been thoroughly rooted in the hearts of the people in Europe.

So, does this problem exist in Dashun?

Your land is yours, and my land is mine. Don't the people of Dashun know what private ownership is? Or don't they understand that as long as they have a land deed, they have absolute disposal rights over the land?

Gentry, corrupt officials, corrupt officials, local black forces, etc. can use various methods to occupy land.

However, they have to use "various methods" to cheat the land deed.

You can cheat. You can force. You can set up a trap to lend. You can use interest to mortgage and repay debts.

However, there is absolutely no such unclear and unclear thing as the French nobles "illegally occupying the village public land."

Simply put, cheating, forcing, and lending are in themselves respect for "private ownership". If you don't respect it, why bother? Just rob it.

Private ownership is private ownership.

Stealing, cheating, deceiving, kidnapping, cheating, lending, etc. based on private ownership are another matter.

You include the fact that Shaanxi capital was driven back to Shaanxi from Yangzhou by Anhui capital, and then went to Sichuan to develop salt wells. What has never been solved is the problem between industrial capital and local landlords. The landlord said that this land is mine, and he started with a 50-50 ratio, and each person gets half of the salt, otherwise he would not rent it.

Such contracts are everywhere in history. And such contracts themselves reflect that private ownership is deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Equal distribution of land is not against private ownership.

Equal distribution of land is precisely trying to maintain the "first type of private ownership", but it is just redistributed by violence.

The first type of private ownership and the second type of private ownership are two different things.

But private ownership itself is one thing.

Private ownership exists, so the second type of private ownership will appear, killing the first type of private ownership and developing on its corpse.

Therefore, private ownership itself is of great significance.

The people, gentry, and merchants in Dashun understand the concept of private ownership very well, very clearly, and very clearly.

Not to mention Europe, which is so far away.

At this time, in Korea, do the people of Korea understand what private ownership means? In Japan, do the people of Japan understand what private ownership means?

They cannot understand.

The land in the hands of the people of Korea is not the same as the land in the hands of the small farmers of Dashun. Therefore, the understanding of the meaning of "mine and yours" is also very different from that of the people of Dashun.

Including the salt administration reform carried out by Liu Yu in Lianghuai, there is an obvious contradiction between "private ownership" and "non-absolute private ownership" - salt households believe that those grass marshes are theirs; but in legal terms, these grass marshes are not theirs, they only have the right to use them, but because of the deeply rooted private ownership consciousness, they regard those grass marshes as theirs.

Therefore, in Dashun, economic problems can easily cause big disturbances. Because private ownership is too deeply rooted in people's hearts, as long as there is a problem in the economy, it is easy to evolve into political chaos.

Especially road construction.

As long as there is a problem with land rights, land acquisition, equity, income, etc., it is inevitable that something will go wrong.

Because private ownership is deeply rooted in people's hearts, you don't need a "European Enlightenment Movement". People in Dashun also know that they should oppose the infringement of their rights and interests.

The storm of land and private ownership on July 17, 1993 had already blown in Dashun.

In France, it took a 200-year brewing from the progress of agricultural technology, the transformation of serfs into permanent tenants, self-cultivating farmers in essence, and non-self-cultivating farmers in legal rights, as well as the debate of the Enlightenment Movement, before French farmers understood what "private ownership" was - the land belongs to others, I have no right to pick up wheat ears on it, it is a favor for others to let me pick it up, and it is reasonable for others not to let me pick it up, this is called private ownership.

This needs to be debated. The argument starts from the fact that the king is a God-given right, and goes all the way to the messy rights that the nobles have on the land, etc.: Without the storm in 1993, the bourgeoisie would buy land for business, not just land, but also "buy out" the nobles' rights to raise pigeons, hunt, manage property, and perform corvée labor; and "buy out" the peasants' rights to glean, graze, and use the village's public land, etc., etc.

And this truth does not need "enlightenment" or "debate" in Dashun.

You can cheat, set up traps, defraud, and force others to take their land, but in the end, as long as you get the title deed, everything will be easy. But if you can't get the title deed, even if you have someone in the government, it will be difficult to handle.

Mergers are carried out under the large ownership of private ownership. Compared with the messy land in France where the property rights are not clear at all and you don't know who to buy from, mergers are much easier.

Therefore, in the context of private ownership being deeply rooted in people's hearts, things like economy and rights can easily lead to big things.

To some extent, an orthodox feudal dynasty that truly understands the Central Plains should know that the core is to "maintain the first type of private ownership and slow down the emergence of the second type of private ownership and the murder of the first type of private ownership" - suppressing annexation is one of the methods.

But in essence, it is still private ownership. Moreover, there is no need for enlightenment or education, people will stand up and resist when their interests are damaged.
