Chapter 141: My father-in-law wants to publish a new book
A good topic has come to the table.
Raising pigs is good, everyone knows it, but the people have no food to feed the pigs, so what is the use of this pig no matter how good it is.
In the same way, cattle, sheep, horses, mules, and livestock are all the same, just a little ration, whether to feed people or pigs.
Since the 35th year of Wanli, the number of natural disasters played in the local area every year has increased by 30% compared with previous years, and this situation has become more serious in recent years.
Although these very few popular uprisings were not linked to "rebellion" and "change of dynasty", Wei Gonggong knew that within ten years, these very few popular uprisings would affect the northwestern provinces, which led to the peasant uprising during the Chongzhen period, and finally linked to the "change of dynasty", thus burying the Ming Dynasty.
And the root cause of all this is the lack of food, which in turn is due to the increasingly severe and extreme weather.
Therefore, there is a real problem of food shortage, what encourages the combination of agriculture and animal husbandry, and the people raising pigs are just castles in the air, and fools talk about the existence of dreams.
So, why did Wei Gonggong still focus on "persuading farmers" in his measures of "rejuvenating industry and revitalizing the country".
Of course, this has the deep meaning of the father-in-law.
But he will not take the initiative to say what he wants, and he hopes that the 14 members who have not yet formally joined the new party, but are already potential members of the new party, will discuss the issue vigorously so that an effective solution can be reached.
For these new party comrades, who have just entered the officialdom, only by "using their brains" in light of specific situations can they be more flexible and effective.
How to do our best to reverse the damage caused to agriculture by natural disasters and stabilize rural production and life under the circumstance that natural disasters cannot be changed is a major topic worthy of deep consideration and discussion by comrades.
Of course, my father-in-law never thought that the move to "persuade farmers" would be triggered by eating pork.
It's logical to think about it carefully, don't underestimate this pork, the small pork reflects a big livelihood of the people.
Since ancient times, being able to eat a full stomach is a symbol of peace and prosperity, but here in Wei Gong, whether you can eat pork is the best proof of prosperity.
Therefore, one of the major characteristics of imperialism with imperial characteristics that Mao Shilong just mentioned is that it cannot let the people starve only half of it.
Eating well and eating nutritious is what Wei Gong said is the characteristic of imperialism.
It is not a bad thing for a country to be scolded as an emperor, but a good thing, a great good thing.
Not everyone in the audience had read the "Collection of Wei Gongwen", and Ma Shiying, who had eaten all the meat just now, looked up in confusion and asked, "What is imperialism?" ”
Cheng Zhengji on the side said with a smile: "Imperialism is a general term for Wei Gong's thought, and he clearly put forward the idea of imperialism in the fourth chapter of the third volume of the anthology, which is..."
Gonggong Wei waved his hand and interrupted Cheng Zhengji, not only to Ma Shiying, but also to Yang Sichang, who was listening carefully: "What is imperialism? It is the idea of letting the people live a good life and making the country rich and strong. To be precise, it should be called people's imperialism. ”
Wei Gong, who had a heart-to-heart talk, expounded to the comrades the two basic characteristics of people's imperialism: first, it was incomparably tough and active in its external development; Second, the people in China live a prosperous and energetic life.
"Why do we talk about people's imperialism, because the first of the two characteristics of people's imperialism serves the second characteristic. In other words, imperialism serves the people, takes what the people need, and thinks what the people think. ”
Speaking of this, Gonggong Wei paused, looked at his comrades with a solemn expression, and said at a long length: "People's imperialism is a kind of civilization, and for the sake of this civilization, we must actively devote ourselves to it, and strive to create people's imperialism through the way of rejuvenating industry and restoring the country." At the same time, we must build a strong imperialist army to protect our people's imperialism. ”
After speaking, the father-in-law took out the Chinese from the cigarette case, and Ruan Dacheng hurriedly took out the fire fold and lit it for the father-in-law.
"If a civilization is not protected by a powerful force, then it is fragile and will sooner or later be conquered by barbarism!"
Father-in-law Wei held a cigarette in his left hand and clenched his right hand into a fist on his chest.
"Therefore, for the sake of the people, each of us imperialists must use our own pen, our own knife, and our own spear to obtain the resources for the survival of the people."
"What is a resource? Grain, copper, iron, gold and silver, fish, spices, etc., but everything that the people need, whether it is food or clothing, is a resource. ”
"As Comrade Yang Sichang just said, how can the people raise pigs and feed chickens when they have no food? Here, we will tell you that if the people have no food, our imperial army will have to get food for them! How do I get it? Go outside and get it! ”
"The world is big, and the only way to resolve internal contradictions is to obtain the resources needed to resolve them."
“……”
My father-in-law told the comrades a lot without breathing, and many of the ideas and ideas were not found in the previous "Wei Gongwen Collection" and previous speeches, which made the comrades who heard these for the first time feel quite shocked.
People's imperialism floated in everyone's minds like a ghost, that is, Monk Chen, who was always on the side to help cut meat, put down the knife in his hand from time to time and listened.
Eating too much is indigestion, and talking too much is also indigestion.
Under the gesture of his father-in-law's eyes, Cheng Zhengji and Mao Shilong proposed to everyone that they could meet regularly in Xishan in the future, organize study groups to discuss and learn the ideas put forward by Wei Gong, and exchange experiences with each other.
"Next time you come back, remember to bring new people." Sun Bixian's funny remark made everyone laugh.
Gonggong Wei was talking to Ruan Dacheng here: "Jizhi, have you remembered what our family just said?" ”
"Remembered." Ruan Dacheng pushed the notebook in his hand forward, "None of them are missing." ”
"Oh? Well, very good. The father-in-law nodded repeatedly.
Ruan Dacheng hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Is my father-in-law preparing to publish the sixth volume of the anthology?" ”
"Yes, it's been more than a year since the last book was issued, and I think there are many comrades who are waiting for our new book, and we can't let them wait too long." Father-in-law Wei blamed himself.
Ruan Dacheng felt numb in the back of his head.
"You should study it carefully, you must combine the people's imperialism with the way of Confucius and Mencius, and make it suitable for all ages, big and small, so that everyone knows our family's thoughts, so that everyone can learn our family's thoughts..."
Wei Gonggong attaches considerable importance to the guiding ideology and guidelines, and a person has only one mouth, and if he wants more people to understand his old man's far-sighted thoughts, it must be edited into a book. Otherwise, he would talk about it once when he met someone, and his old man would be tired and panicked.
"After the sixth volume is completed, you will go to next year's examination."
After the father-in-law finished saying this, he glanced at Ma Shiying, who was discussing with Yang Sichang in a low voice not far away, and showed an unpredictable expression.
The first Xishan National Comrades Conference was held in a very short time, and it was also very hasty, and there were great deficiencies in all aspects, but it was this first Xishan National Congress that officially established the eunuch party headed by Wei Gongliangchen... The new party system is of great significance in history.
With the convening of this congress, the new idea of people's imperialism was asked to the world. On the afternoon of the end of this conference, Gonggong Wei once again met intimately with the noble concubine Niangniang and her personal female official Zheng Shanggong.
The three sides conducted in-depth discussions on how to strengthen exchanges and further consolidate the tripartite strategic alliance.
Because the talks were too frequent, the persimmon powder that Zheng Shanggong bought from the Chinese medicine store in Beijing was not enough, and in desperation, the father-in-law Wei suggested that the concubine Niangniang could try the Jurchen method, that is, the built-in musk elk ointment.
"Shu'er should be a fertile physique, this physique is quite troublesome, and now is a critical time, and there is no way to go wrong, so I wronged Shu'er to stuff it in first, otherwise the emperor will definitely suspect it if she gets pregnant again."
