After being "drunk as a head" by Wei Ze, Wang Haiyang forgot how he returned home. Before taking office, he was warned that "the prime minister has a term", and there is inevitably too much room for imagination in this straight end. For example, the Prime Minister can be appointed or removed during his term of office as long as the Chairman orders it. Not to mention that Wei Ze, the chairman of the Democratic Dynasty, is still the emperor authorized by the National People's Congress, and in this authorization, "the supreme legislative power, the supreme judicial power, and the supreme administrative power" are all transferred to Wei Ze. Theoretically, Wei Ze can remove whoever he wants.

After all, the new prime minister is not an ordinary cadre, and he also has his own way of dealing with problems. Wang Haiyang thought about it carefully, is there anything wrong with cowardly being cowardly in front of the governor? Show worry about the future in front of a person at the pinnacle of power, and then this strong man says, love to do it, not to do it. This should probably be regarded as a strong man asking a weak person like Wang Haiyang to move forward bravely.

Although this kind of thinking did make Wang Haiyang feel a lot more relieved, what saved Wang Haiyang's mood in the end was an attitude similar to self-abandonment, "the ball of death is facing upward, and the immortal is swaying". It's much better to be removed if you don't do a good job than to be scared to do it. So, Wang Haiyang, who had been tossing for half a night, fell asleep.

When he woke up the next day, Wang Haiyang felt unexpectedly in a good mood. It's time to go to work, it's time to hand over. Once you get into the familiar work, all the unpleasantness is dispelled by the intense work.

One of the important recent efforts of the Republic of China was North America. China's monsoon climate has caused a lot of disasters in the vast territory, often with droughts and floods occurring at the same time. People will habitually think that it is a drought in the north and a flood in the south, but in fact, there are many problems in the north and drought in the south. What's more, now the territory of the Republic of China has expanded southward beyond the equator, which means that there is both winter and summer in the entire territory of China, and there are more cases of natural disasters.

At the end of 1881, the six provinces of North America were officially included in the territory of the Republic of China, and five years later, the Republic of China found that the lowest temperature this winter was about 20 degrees, and the temperature was similar to that of Shanxi, which was a good place to produce agricultural products stably. Unlike Shanxi, the six provinces of North America have vast plains and are very rich in water resources. Because of the cold, the insect plague in this place is not serious. The population of the Republic of China was 740 million, which was calculated according to the ration of one person and one catty. 3.8 million tonnes of grain are needed a day. In the case of the rotation of three plots of land, the six provinces of North America can export as much as 50 million tons of grain. If it is fully produced, the annual output of the six provinces in North America can supply about two months of grain for the entire Republic of China. At present, it is difficult to sell grain in rural areas, and to a certain extent, it is the result of the rapid development of the six provinces in North America.

Governor Wei Zedu has put forward a national policy that the government is obliged to ensure that the Chinese do not starve to death. In order to do this, it is necessary to first determine the agricultural output and formulate a strategy for stocks and food supply. After the establishment of this strategy, the entire Republic of China also had basic confidence.

Wang Haiyang thought that this would become a simple discussion of agricultural output, but he did not expect Zhang Jianguo, the minister of civil affairs, who has the authority to manage the household registration, to put forward a view: "Now that the proportion of the country's urban population has reached 30%, if we look at it purely from the perspective of relief, the 30% relief problem is easy, and the local government can be responsible." The difficulty is about 70% of the rural population. But are these rural populations themselves landless? On the whole, the landless population is actually very limited. ”

As a cadre in Zhejiang Province, Wang Haiyang is actually very aware of the so-called land shortage problem. When land existed as wealth, no one lacked land. Now there is no land sale in the Republic of China, so whether there is a shortage of this land or not depends on the position. As a young generation who have received a relatively systematic education, especially after learning materialist dialectics and the social system part of the principles of communism, the problem of land shortage can be summed up in one sentence: "Everyone wants to occupy as much of the product produced on the land as possible".

As long as there is ownership of a commodity that can be circulated in the market, everyone wants to take possession. These things can be sold for money. Just like chestnuts are abundant in the mountainous areas of western Zhejiang, no one goes up the mountain on weekdays, but when it comes to picking chestnuts, disputes often occur. Thanks to the popularity of this dessert, chestnuts sell very well. A few years ago, it was even possible to cause deaths. From this point of view, is there a lack of land? It seems that it is probably missing.

But in recent years, Zhejiang's fatal case of chestnuts has suddenly disappeared. The reason is actually very simple, a large number of better quality chestnuts from Shandong and Anhui, which are not as wealthy as Zhejiang, occupy the market. Yokan and chestnuts may be delicious, but you can't just eat them every day. When the price of chestnuts in Zhejiang is very low, and it is difficult to sell out even at a low price, the scramble for chestnuts suddenly decreases or even disappears. There were no more disputes, and there was a protective gear for picking chestnuts, and casualties no longer happened.

If things were just like that, Wang Haiyang might not be impressed. In order to regain the market, Zhejiang's agricultural department tried to introduce better quality chestnut seedlings. The agricultural department thought that the people in the mountainous areas of Zhejiang would be very interested in this, but in fact, the agricultural department found that the people in the mountainous areas were interested in the chestnut trees that had already grown. Let them spend a lot of energy planting trees, raising trees, and spending years waiting for the harvest. Most of the people in the mountainous areas are not interested. From this point of view, there is no shortage of land at all.

Wang Haiyang was impressed not only by these two, but also by some farmers who were willing to make a living by planting chestnuts, and indeed planted high-quality seedlings and produced high-quality chestnuts. Therefore, people who do not plant trees and go up the mountain to hunt chestnuts especially like to go to high-quality chestnut orchards to hunt chestnuts when the farmers who farm the land are not there. For this reason, there was another brawl. It's just just in time for a round of crackdowns, and the ruffians and criminals saw that the government began to slaughter the bad guys with big knives, and under the strong pressure of grabbing ten yuan and losing their heads, these people were too busy to take care of themselves, so the scramble for chestnuts stopped. Of course, there are also farmers who sued the government in a fit of anger for a group of villagers who snatched his chestnuts, which led to him becoming a thorn in the side of the village and finally having to leave his hometown.

Wang Haiyang told him what he saw, and the cadres of various ministries and commissions had experience at the grassroots level, and they found that the types of things they saw were different from those of Wang Haiyang. For example, Wang Haiyang was impressed by chestnuts, while comrades from Jiangxi were impressed by citrus. The current population and land area of the Republic of China are more like a false proposition whether there is a lack of land.

Discussions went on and on, and finally came to the conclusion of "whether it is possible to implement state-controlled scale operations in North America". This was the proposal of a deputy minister of agriculture from Jiangxi, where citrus cultivation has been successful in addition to the deer breeding industry. The solution to the civil dispute in Jiangxi is to invest a lot of money and manpower to make the citrus area grow with a sense of quality. This really has the meaning of not suffering from widowhood but suffering from unevenness, since everyone has planted high-quality varieties, the competition has basically disappeared. Of course, the problem later became that it was not easy to sell such a large number of high-quality citrus. Even if Jiangxi's tangerine peel industry and canning industry were born, this problem still plagues Jiangxi's agricultural sector every year.

Discussion went on and on, and finally a tentative conclusion was reached. Probably the best way to fundamentally solve the problem of poverty and hunger is to make these people, who are already far away from industrial society, become members of industrial society and establish close relations with industrial society.

These comrades, who have worked at the grassroots level, were not greatly encouraged by this result, and the difficulty and cost of doing so were far higher than sending grain to the countryside when there was a shortage of grain in these areas. Guangxi is a good example, because the Republic of China expanded rapidly in the South China Sea, and a large number of Guangxi people moved to the South China Sea or into the city, resulting in a lot of land vacated in Guangxi, which had a large number of people and little land. The Guangxi government thought it would be good for everyone to move people from poor areas to more affluent areas.

It's easy to think of a bright future, but it's not like that at all. The local natives who were close to the Han people did not have to make much effort to descend the mountain, and the natives who were not close to the Han people had limited interest in this. Worse still, the natives' understanding of the government's invitation to them down the mountain was very different from what the government intended. The natives felt that the Han government had given them the land.

I opened this mountain, and I planted this tree. You don't need a high level of civilization to think about it. Later, there were many things where natives blocked the road and set up blocks, or looted passers-by. The local people in Guangxi are fierce, and the number of stubborn natives is very limited after all. The government dealt a heavy blow and sent heavy troops to the mountains to arrest them. After arresting all the people, they burned down their cottages, destroyed their bad fields, and forcibly overwhelmed the people to live on the flat land under the mountain. They are forced to learn new production techniques, learn new languages, and learn new ways of life.

What was supposed to be a good thing has made the natives feel that they have suffered greatly, and the government that is trying to improve the living standards of the natives also feels very painful. So many people died in the entire operation, and so many innocent victims were produced. Everyone feels that they are more wronged than Dou E.

Later, the Yunnan-Guizhou region absorbed the lessons of Guangxi's failure, and they only sent some grain to the natives when they were short of food. Those who are willing to take the initiative to follow the government will naturally welcome it and give the way to the policy. Those who are not willing to follow the government will not be ignored as long as they do not commit crimes. Of course, if the natives dare to come out to block the road and rob, they must be caught and shot, and there will be no forgiveness. Under this combination of grace and power, the natives are full of gratitude to the government.

From the point of view of solving the problem once and for all, turning the people into members of the industrial society is undoubtedly a symptomatic cure. If you look at the reality and cost, the cost of allowing these people to choose freely through a long period of time is undoubtedly the lowest. As the top of the bureaucracy, whether it is about political achievements or saving money. They have different positions and cannot be unanimous.

In line with the basic principle of being accountable to those who only provide bureaucratic power, Wang Haiyang handed a report to Weeser's desk. Inside is the full result of the discussion between the two parties. Bureaucrats don't like to do things when they don't have to. Since they didn't know Wei Ze's attitude, everyone held their own opinions and waited for the governor to make a decision.
