Chapter 451: Beijing Conference (IV)
"Here, eat oranges. "www.biquge.info Wei Changrong put a few yellow, orange and orange oranges on the table in front of Shen Xin, and pulled a stool to sit down.
Shen Xin picked one up and sniffed it, and then said in a nostalgic tone: "Jiangxi's oranges, I haven't eaten them for a long time." β
Not long after Shen Xingang, the newly appointed deputy director of the Organization Department, returned to Asia, he left Asia from Nanjing, and when he returned, the capital had changed, and Jiangxi, which was rich in oranges, was several thousand miles away from Beijing than Nanjing.
Wei Changrong peeled an orange, and after eating a few petals, he couldn't help but sigh: "Because I am afraid of spoilage, I don't dare to pick oranges when they are ripe." It still tastes too sour. β
Shen Xin also ate a few petals, and then said with a smile: "Lao Wei, you are still hypocritical." Over the years, you have been next to Jiangxi, and you can eat oranges as much as you want. We in North America can't eat this fruit except for canned food. β
Wei Changrong fought back without hesitation: "We can't eat salmon except for canned food. You can eat the raw salmon fillet over there. β
Faced with such a response, Shen Xin rolled his eyes, considering the rhetoric of the counterattack. After a moment, however, he felt that it was childish to try to fight back. Then Shen Xin's mood relaxed, and he couldn't help laughing. Now that the opponent has given up, Wei Changrong also laughed out loud. Both of them felt quite relieved emotionally.
Of course, it is not so easy for the two heads of the organization department to completely relax, Wei Changrong mentioned the recent question, "45 years old, 50 years old, 55 years old. Shen Xin: At what age do you think it is appropriate to start receiving food stamps? β
Shen Xin sighed slightly and did not answer immediately. This is a big problem, and there is a vote of supporters for every age, and the 55-year-old thinks that the retirement age is like this. It is suitable to start receiving it at the age of 55. The number of people who support the 45-year-old was originally small, until a deputy to the National People's Congress stood up and shouted, "When people reach the age of 45, there are old and young." If they have a successful career, food stamps are nothing to them. If they have an ordinary career, the pressure on them is very great. I think most people with ordinary careers can give them a food stamp, and they will feel less personally stressed. There will also be confidence in the country. β
As for the person who proposed the 50-year-old, he probably held a compromise attitude. I think 45 is still too early, and 55 is too late. Shen Xin thought about it these days, and actually felt that 45 years old was the most attractive among the three options. However, Shen Xin also knows very well that once this kind of benefit starts to be issued, there is probably no possibility of reduction. Just like the retirement benefits in the army, even people who don't care about it when they join the army will pay great attention to it when they are really discharged. What's more, the reason why many people enlist in the army is because they go for the treatment and welfare of soldiers, and they are even more uncompromising.
Thinking of this, Shen Xin sighed: "The governor ordered that the benefits must not be excessive, and the basic content must not be adjusted because of a moment of softness. Looking at it now, the Governor is more far-sighted than us. I strongly support pensions for men at the age of 55 and women at the age of 50. β
Wei Changrong understood what Shen Xin meant as soon as he heard it, and he nodded and said, "I also support the issuance of food stamps at the age of 45." 20 catties of rice or white flour a month, three catties of oil, and six catties of meat, in fact, it is not a big deal. With the current situation, there are not many people who want to live on this at all. Even if they sell these for money, they won't get much in return. β
"These are all raw, and if you want to cook this, you need extra input. Water, electricity, gas, kitchen, these are indispensable. Shen Xin said approvingly, just after returning to the central government, he didn't dare to make a statement. The upper echelons are very disciplined, and Shen Xin has no intention of ignoring other comrades. Wei Changrong expressed his position publicly, and Shen Xin also felt much more relaxed.
Wei Changrong voted a lot, and he didn't have any special feelings about it. He put aside the question of age and asked about his concerns instead, "The question now is not how old you are, but the key is that the governor is ready to establish a new system." The relationship between the people and the party and the government must change. And if you're from North America, you know the land situation in North America. β
Before Shen Xin left North America, he took a lot of risks and flew around many places in North America on a reconnaissance plane, and now when he heard Wei Changrong ask this question, he immediately replied: "There are many great plains in North America, and the idea of the agricultural belt of the governor is completely in line with the situation in North America. β
"And how many people do you think North America can accommodate?" Wei Changrong asked.
Shen Xin scratched his head slightly: "100 million people are no problem at all, even if you put 200 million people, you can still have a large ticket of grain to sell to the outside world." β
"Don't have 200 million!" Wei Changrong was taken aback by this number, he hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Those who can go to North America are all young and strong, our total population is less than 800 million now, if you take away 200 million young and strong, will there be only old people and children left in the Asian part?" β
"It's absolutely fine to accommodate 100 million people." Shen Xin is very confident in this.
After thinking for a moment, Wei Changrong said with some hesitation: "Shen Xin, you are from Anhui. You don't know what our Guangxi looked like in 1850. It can only be said that there is no land, no water, no food. For a little bit of land and a little bit of water, we Hakka and Tujia people can fight you to the death. Some time ago, relatives from Guangxi came and they said that there were no more people in the mountainous areas of Guangxi now. Guangxi people either went to Nanyang or lived in the cities, and the farmers lived on those flat lands. When I think back to what happened 40 years ago, I just think it's funny. For that little thing that isn't even a fart now, so many people can die. Now there is no one to plant the broken ground, and the people on the ground are all forest rangers. The income of one ranger is more than the income of the entire family of ten poor families. Previous ...... It's that stupid! β
Before mentioning it, Shen Xin's feeling was similar to Wei Changrong's. More than 30 years ago, when Shen Xin flew into the sky in a hot air balloon to bomb Wuzhou, he knew that he was with the right person. Wei Ze not only showed everyone that it was only a matter of time before the Manchu Qing Dynasty was overthrown, but also made Shen Xin feel what human beings themselves could do. Not long ago, when he was flying in the vast skies of North America in a plane, Shen Xin noticed that the changes in China had not stopped, but were rushing forward at a faster speed. After listening to two lessons, Shen Xin fully understood the principle of hot air balloon and the key to operation. The hot air balloon had to be higher, and the plane had to be faster, and after listening to two lessons, Shen Xin only understood that because of the shape of the wings, it could bring some kind of lift based on aerodynamics. The rapid development of science and technology has reached a level that is difficult to understand without a specialist.
Shen Xin also sighed: "Lao Wei, it's not that people were stupid at that time. It's that the level of human productivity at that time was far worse than it is now. Our cultivation in North America is more by tractors, and one person can plough hundreds of acres of land a day. Do you think that's fast? We still think it's slow! There is already a desire to develop larger tractors, tractors that can plough hundreds of acres of land in a day. In the past, we used to use our own hoes, and we could plane more than ten centimeters, which was a good crop handle. Now the tractor ploughs the land, twenty centimeters, thirty centimeters, just like playing. The level of productivity varies so much that the level of looking at the problem is completely different. β
Wei Changrong nodded deeply after hearing this, "Well said!" Shen Xin, I'm very relieved to hand over to you as the head of the Organization Department. When you select and promote cadres, the first thing you need to do is whether you are loyal to the party and whether you have a correct and firm understanding of social ideas. If you don't recognize this yourself, then you can't select anyone. β
Seeing that Wei Changrong was not the slightest excited, but calm, calm and rational look, Shen Xin suddenly figured out something. He shouted dissatisfiedly, "Hey! But just shouted like this twice, and Shen Xin understood that Wei Changrong was doing the handover work. Talking too much at this time wasted Wei Changrong's thoughts, and Shen Xin also fell silent.
"Are you really ready to retire?" There was a feeling of gloom in Shen Xin's voice, for decades, one of the foundations of the Min Dynasty was the combination of Wei Ze and Wei Changrong. The number of Wei Ze's direct family is small, and everyone has always followed Wei Ze's banner for so many years, but having a reliable person like Wei Changrong has always held the power of personnel also makes everyone have high confidence in the Minchao.
"Shen Xin, my hair is almost gray. I'm 60 years old this year, and it's time to retire and enjoy the blessings. Wei Changrong said with a smile.
Shen Xin didn't think what Wei Changrong said was true, and the upper echelons knew that Wei Changrong was implicated by his daughter, and retirement was just a decent disposition. But Shen Xin didn't know what to say about this, not only Wei Changrong was going to retire. Ten years at most, probably Shen Xin will also retire. Even though he had always respected Wei Ze very much, Shen Xin couldn't help but feel a sense of resentment at this time.
Wei Changrong said again: "Shen Xin, after you take over the department, you must pay attention to one special thing. Recently, the Governor has paid great attention to ideological issues, and there must not be a trace of error in this matter. β
"Is it about the state ownership of land?" Shen Xin has been engaged in military and political affairs, and he actually has limited concern for party and government affairs.
"It's not just that. The governor invited the foreigner to be a teacher, and he also made a lot of reports, and I think this person has real material. Of course, some of the things that this foreign devil has to say are very annoying. He wrote an essay called "Anti-DΓΌhring". Inside, there are some interesting comments to listen to. This foreigner believes that China has only been industrialized for a short time, so what happens in the future will change the current situation in an all-round way. Wei Changrong recounted his worries.
Shen Xin listened very seriously, but he couldn't understand Uncle En's status in Wei Zedudu's heart, and he didn't know what Uncle En's real proposition was. After listening to Wei Changrong, Shen Xin asked, "Do you want me to meet this person." β
"It's good to meet him." Wei Changrong immediately agreed.
Shen Xin didn't go to see Uncle En immediately, and he was also very busy with his work. In particular, at the National People's Congress, the workers' delegates were a little uneasy about the direction of China's future proposed by Weeser. Everyone is a person who does things, so this social security system makes everyone feel that there are many unfriendly things in it.
For example, the clear definition of basic social security and welfare has changed the relationship between enterprises and internal personnel from the original agricultural type of human relationship to a simple employment relationship like long-term and short-term labor. In rural areas, long-term and short-term work is actually not easy to offend. Especially for short-term workers, the landlord has to eat and drink well. If the short-term workers are dissatisfied, the short-term workers find an excuse to tear their faces, scold and scold the pickers and leave, and then hype up how the landlords are unkind and righteous in the village.
Retaliation after the fact, that's later. After the landlord's working hours were delayed, he had to endure it for the time being for the sake of face. And now the enterprise is different, if the workers can not satisfy the enterprise, the enterprise says let the workers get out, the workers have to get out. The advantage of state-owned enterprises over private enterprises is that state-owned enterprises cannot just fire workers. But now in many of the systems introduced by Weeser, as the mutual relationship between state-owned enterprises and workers has weakened, the deputies to the people's congress feel that something is wrong with them.
As a result, workers' problems with the social security system rose sharply, and the contradictions quickly gathered on two points. The first point is that since you have to pay 10 yuan a month in social security, you can only start receiving food stamps at the age of 45 after 15 years. Workers are required to pay everywhere. You can't just pay in one fixed place.
After listening to this, Wei Ze immediately recalled the many controversies he had seen about social security, one of which was the contradiction between different places to pay and different places to receive. Weeser's plan had a special discussion on this matter, and the person responsible for establishing the social security system had a headache about it. In such an era, if you want to engage in cross-regional social security, you have to use a lot of manpower for any thing. For example, the transfer of personnel from Nanjing to Beijing must go through the examination and approval of the personnel of the Nanjing unit, the financial department of the Nanjing unit, the personnel of the Nanjing Personnel Bureau, and the approval and transfer of the Nanjing financial department. The examination and approval of the counterpart units in Beijing, and the personnel examination and approval of the three aspects of finance, personnel and units in Beijing. One person's affairs involve more than a dozen departments, from personnel, finance, and archives. In order not to make mistakes, these units need a lot of review, stamping, and approval.
Of course, for Weizer, who has lived in the Internet age, these can be achieved through the development of productive forces, that is, computers, databases, and networks. Wei Ze once went to Beijing to play, forgot to bring his ID card, and was refused to stay in a hotel. Just when he was at a loss, the hotel receptionist told Wei Ze that it was good to go to the nearby police station to get a certificate. Wei Ze went to the police station, reported his name and ID number, and the other party easily completed the information retrieval work through the Internet.
After the two people looked at the picture of Weezer on the screen and the real Weese, they both thought it was Weser himself. Then he printed a copy of his ID card on A4 paper, and tore off half of the typed image and gave it to Wei Ze. didn't ask for a penny, and the police station solved Wei Ze's problem. Weeser was impressed. In December 1890, however, Weeser did not think that technology would be able to be brought so close in a short period of time.
Since we can't do the technology in the Internet era, Weizer must build a system that can be completed by the existing technology. In other words, a genuine bureaucracy, a bureaucracy full of clergy, a bureaucracy that can easily run rampant. In the end, the bureaucracy gnawed away the ideals of the country first, or whether technological progress was able to maintain the advanced nature of the ideals and continue to promote social progress. Weeser felt that this race was really interesting.
However, Weeser did not tell everyone about this, and when faced with problems, Weeser showed amazing patience, and he gave a detailed explanation to the deputies of the people's congress on how to establish the bureaucratic system.
Shen Xin listened carefully, and he also saw that the members of the Central Committee who were in charge of the Chinese bureaucracy at the meeting all showed very impatient expressions. Shen Xin found that he could fully understand the sentiments of these colleagues, because the questions raised by the deputies undoubtedly pointed in one direction, in elegant terms, that is, to demand that the bureaucracy "bow down and die."
Different classes, different classes, different interests, different ass. Shen Xin silently recited in his heart a basic idea of politics, if it is to meet the demands of the people, the bureaucracy needs to operate with an efficiency that cannot be achieved by human beings. This operational efficiency alone is not enough, the state also needs to provide communications equipment that is large enough to bankrupt the country. Whether from the standpoint of being a bureaucrat or a person with real power who has the power to review the government's budget, Shen Xin feels that he cannot stand on the side of the working people no matter what.
A female cadre beside Shen Xin put her two hands and ten fingertips together under the table, and played a small game of fingertip chasing with an expressionless face. The male cadres on the other side took out a document and began to write and draw on it. Shen Xin saw that this was a report of the Ministry of Agriculture on the expansion of agricultural schools serving retired soldiers in 1891-1894 and the number of trainees. There's a lot of data on it, and a lot of calculations are required. It's really a good way to kill time.
There is no female cadre who is calm, and there is no male cadre who is so well prepared. Shen Xin closed his eyes slightly, ready to sort out the personnel in the North American theater again in his mind. Although it doesn't take long, it's always more effective to get down to business than to listen to the NPC deputies with a disgruntled heart.
At this moment, the microphone rang a few times, which is a common sound when changing people. Then Wei Ze's voice rang out, "Comrades, I have heard a true story, and I will tell you a story. There is a factory floor, and there is a squad leader in the workshop, who is ready for a long time, and then everyone is also ready to do an unprecedented amount of work in a day. This workload is then given to the workshop director. After the comrades in his team learned about this, a comrade went up and slapped this guy, and scolded him for doing this, saying that he was harming people by doing this! β
...... buzz, the deputies to the National People's Congress in the Great Hall all laughed or sneered. The members of the Central Committee, on the other hand, sneered or simply showed cold expressions.
Everyone can understand the thoughts of the squad leader, and report a data that has really happened. If this data can be turned into a recognized average figure, the squad leader has a chance to be favored by his superiors. Of course, before he is promoted and out of the front line, whether such an approach will be exposed is another question. But this guy's approach really deserves to be fought.
As for why His Majesty Weeser said such an example, most people don't understand. So everyone was waiting for Weeser to finish. Wei Ze waited for the Great Hall to be quiet and then said loudly: "The government, civil servants, is indeed for the people. But they're human too, and it takes time for them to get their work done. Therefore, the demands put forward by the comrades of the people's congress were excessive. β
After saying this, the deputies to the people's congress were silent. Shen Xin raised his head, and the female colleague next to him who was playing a fingertip chase game crossed his ten fingers on his lower abdomen, and the comrade who counted the numbers closed the file. The three of them and the other committee members all stared at Wei Ze with a more or less smile on their faces.
