"I know that the ancient abdication is not as beautiful as described in the book, but this is only because the ancient abdication system did not form a strict operating standard."

Huang Chao glanced at everyone, then took out a black-covered book and said:

"In this book, there are the names of each of you present, and your usual performance and my rating are recorded on the back. When I surrender, I will make this book public. Whoever has the highest score at that time will be the next The 'Emperor'."

Huang Chao spoke very calmly, but every word was like a giant hammer, shaking the hearts of everyone present:

"This supreme position actually has its own possibility?"

Huang Zhong looked at Huang Chao with complicated eyes, and said:

"Master, is this appropriate?"

"Why is it inappropriate?" Huang Chao paused and continued:

"Oh, yes, ladies can too. Ladies present, if you work hard, you may become the second 'Queen' in Chinese history after Wu Zetian."

Huang Chao said, and blinked at Huang Chang.

Huang Chang's expression was complicated, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy.

Huang Chao went on to say:

"Of course, there are some big rules to add:

First, the abdicated and the abdicated must have no blood relatives within six generations;

Second, the abdication must announce the top three candidates three years in advance for inspection and supervision by all Chinese people;

Third, including me, each emperor reigns for at most two terms, each for 10 years;

Fourth, the above three items must not be changed. If there is an "emperor" who makes China enter the "family world" mode again, everyone can shoot him!

Fifth, the rights to other supplementary rules shall be reviewed and approved by the meeting. "

"Of course, I want to give way, and you have to give way too." Huang Chao pointed at the audience with his fingers and said:

"From next year, all public servants must leave their positions at the age of 60, including the 'emperor'. After leaving office, if there is no corruption or dereliction of duty, they can be supported by the state until their death."

"Master, what if after the age of 60, the body is still healthy and can continue to work?"

"I only work for 20 years! Are you still not satisfied if you can work until you are 60 years old?"

"Besides, if you're drunk, will you admit it? A rule is a rule, and it cannot be changed by personal will or special circumstances!"

"Okay, okay, it's settled like this." Huang Chao made a decision and ended the conversation: "It's already very late, everyone hurry back and rest, you have to work tomorrow!"

In this way, the imperialism with Chinese characteristics and the "Abdication System of the Throne" that has influenced the later generations for thousands of years, was decided hastily in a sudden dialogue.

The next day, the concession system hit the headlines of the newspapers, setting off a huge upsurge of public opinion in the entire territory.People's first reaction was to doubt, but the Huaxia Daily officially published by the imperial court made people have to believe it.

For a while, in all the taverns and teahouses, everyone was holding a newspaper, talking about what the "abdication system" was all about, and whether Emperor Hongwu would really abdicate in 20 years.

Even the landlords and scholar-bureaucrats in the south were shaken when they heard the news.

Of course, such literati are only a minority, and most of them still firmly believe that Huang Chao is a bandit leader who is sensationalizing and confusing the public.

Under such a trend, no one cares about the second article on the front page

But soon, the world will see the power displayed!

Chapter 10 Dog Legs and Mud Legs

In the second year of Hongwu, the boundary of Guangzhou.

This is the border between Daming under the rule of Huang Chao and the Southern Song Dynasty whose capital Jiangling (now Nanjing) was just established, and belongs to the Southern Song Dynasty.

Since Huang Chao ascended the throne, he has been sorting out the internal affairs in his territory, and has not pursued the victory.

This year, floods broke out in the two Zhejiang areas, and the Southern Song Dynasty court had just been established, so it had no intention or ability to provide disaster relief.

So the farmers in Gwangju suffered.

Natural disasters must be accompanied by man-made disasters, because the landlords like to take advantage of the fire at this time, use usury and other methods, and finally buy the land of these farmers at an ultra-low price.

Zhang Quandan is one of these landless peasants.

There was no harvest in his family's field. In order to support his wife and son, he had to go to the landlord Liu Laocai to borrow some money to buy coarse grains to satisfy his hunger.

One month later, when the flood completely receded, Zhang Quandan was glad that his family had survived, when Liu Laocai's gang of vicious dogs came to his door.

The dog legs held the IOU with his fingerprints in their hands, and told him that he owed "Liu Dashan" ten taels of silver, and asked him to pay back the money quickly, or use his family's land to pay off the debt if he couldn't pay it back.

Zhang Quandan didn't know how to count or read, so he couldn't figure out why he had only borrowed food money for less than a month, but it turned into a huge debt of ten taels of silver so quickly.

He couldn't tell, couldn't tell, and was at a loss, so he could only accept this "robbery" and gave his two acres of land to the dog's legs.

But what I didn't expect was that the dog legs were not satisfied after getting the land, but they made an inch of it and said:

"Two acres of land can't be worth 10 taels of silver! How about this, I think your mother-in-law is still pretty and worth a little money, so give it to me together, and the 10 taels of silver you owe will be written off."

As he said that, the dog leg started to molested Zhang Quandan's wife.

This time Zhang Quandan couldn't bear it anymore, he picked up the hoe in his hand, and smashed it on the head of this wretched beast with all his strength, red and white splashed all over his body, and the dog leg was killed instantly.

The two equally wretched dog legs next to him were so scared that they pissed out. They didn't expect that Zhang Quandan, who was so honest and couldn't give a fart, would dare to kill someone, so they ran away in a hurry.

Looking at the dead body on the ground, Zhang Quandan knew that he had caused trouble, so he hurriedly ran away with his wife and children.
