Chapter 465: The Best of Both Worlds
Chapter 465 is a two-pronged approach
As later generations, Lin Xiao and the others all know that the only way to get the country out of this strange circle is to completely deprive these moths of their privileges, let the poor peasants, who occupy the vast majority, awaken from their numbness, and strive to build a fair society for the common people.
Among them, the explicit measures are nothing more than three - land reform, taxation and official governance.
Only by abandoning land privatization can we put an end to land sales, cut off the phenomenon of land annexation at the source, and truly ensure that the cultivators have their own land.
Second, it is necessary to temporarily monopolize grain, salt, iron, mining, and other major types of commerce that have a bearing on the national economy and the people's livelihood, severely crack down on such ugly phenomena as collusion between officials and businessmen, oligopoly, and other ugly phenomena, and use salt and iron taxes to stabilize prices, so as to appropriately rob the rich and help the poor.
The above two points are easy to say, but difficult and complicated to do, the key to really doing a good job lies in the third point - the rule of officials, and this is what makes Lin Xiao extremely headache.
You must know that it is easy to break an old ruling system, which is nothing more than a power coming out of the barrel of a gun, but it is even more difficult to rebuild a new state power according to the plan.
We can't overthrow the old privileged class and retrain a new group of powerful people to come to power, in that case, it will really become old wine in new bottles, and there is no point at all.
Therefore, Li Tao can't wait to start training a large number of land reform cadres, and in the long run, he is also reserving talents for future local governance.
Lin Xiao knew that with the cooperation of the military management, dispatching land reform working groups to various places was still only an expedient measure for Li Tao, and what he wanted to cultivate was definitely not only land reform talents.
Sooner or later, the main force will have to leave, and after the end of military administration, the military and government in the base areas will inevitably be separated, and the area south of the Yangtze River has always been the main financial and taxation area of the whole country, and in addition to agriculture, there are also relatively developed commerce and handicraft industries.
As far as Suzhou and Huzhou are concerned, the mulberry sericulture here is particularly developed, and it is the main raw silk production area, and the silk trade volume is amazing, and over the ages, it has absorbed huge gold and silver surpluses from more than a dozen empires such as Rome, Persia, Arabia, and Ottomans.
However, the contradiction between exploitation and anti-exploitation between the silk industry and the silkworm farmers here has a long history, and the contradiction between a small number of conscientious silk cocoon merchants and the silk merchants who bully the good and the good and the good and sit on the ground is also particularly acute.
In the future, with the completion of Shanghai's light industrial base, it will certainly lead to further commercial prosperity in the surrounding areas, and how to effectively manage these industries will certainly not be able to rely on military management alone.
Therefore, for a fairly long period of time, how to select a large number of local cadres who can faithfully implement the new policy, who also understand the economy, have the ability to do practical work, and who can still not be corroded by sugar-coated shells and effectively avoid degeneration and degeneration is a major issue facing them.
Taking 10,000 steps back, even from the immediate point of view, as the territory of the liberation grows larger and larger, the number of local cadres who are urgently needed is not a small number.
Even if trivial matters such as policy training and personal quality identification are not considered, if Lin Xiao is allowed to do it himself, I am afraid that he will have to restrain most of his energy.
Not to mention that there are more than 1,000 counties in the country, only from the current point of view, although the provinces that are really complete are only Guangdong, Hunan and Zhejiang, plus Jiangxi, Fujian, Hubei and Guangxi, and other parts of the country, there are already hundreds of counties in total.
With such a large territory, local cadres are urgently needed to take over after the end of military management, so when Li Tao hurriedly said that he would open a cadre training class, Lin Xiao was already anxious.
Lao Chen is gone, Lin Xiao asked himself, he and his comrades-in-arms are not this material, besides, every day to focus on expanding the army and training, as well as the east and west to kill these things, they are happy but not enough, at present, the only one who can really preside over the overall situation of local work is Li Tao, an all-rounder.
Once the large-scale land reform begins, it is tantamount to showing its fangs in front of everyone, then there will be no way back without hesitation, and any opposition will be dealt a blow to the high-ranking officials of the imperial court and the rich people in the countryside.
However, although he must let go, Lin Xiao's heart is like a big stone pressing down, and he always feels that it is not a taste, why is this?
It turned out that there was something in his heart that he had been in a dilemma and couldn't think of a good way.
He is not worried about the land issue, those local tyrants and inferior gentry are all lords who bully the weak and fear the hard, and there is no problem that cannot be solved in front of the gun.
However, once the political reform begins, when it comes to the issue of the right to rule, it will be the time to see the blood, and at that time, whether it is the side of the small court of Yongli or the side of Zhu Yihai, the king of Lu, it is unlikely that they will obediently hand over power.
Even, at the time of life and death, they are very likely to regard themselves as orthodox, declare the captive army as anti-thieves, and in the name of begging for thieves, they try their best to win over Li Dingguo, Jiao Lian, Zheng Chenggong and other powerful factions to fight against each other and King Qin to rebel.
On the contrary, from Lin Xiao's own standpoint, if we want to establish a new type of state power, the reform of the armed forces is inevitable, and in the long run, the situation of warlord separatism must not be sustainable.
However, Lin Xiao's dilemma lies here.
Several allies such as Li Dingguo and Zheng Chenggong were reasonable, and Lin Xiao was unwilling to turn against them.
Yes, according to Lin Xiao's heart, these allies have a very high occupation, they are not blind, if they reform first in their own base areas, he believes that as long as the people under his jurisdiction can live and work in peace and contentment, and live a peaceful and prosperous life, these smart people must be able to distinguish right from wrong......
……
"Why, isn't it...... Feeling stuck? ”
As if seeing Lin Xiao's thoughts, Li Tao said with a wry smile, "You must know that the struggle for dominance has always been impossible to ...... in a gentle manner."
Lin Xiao nodded and didn't speak, indicating that he understood what he meant.
"I think it's better to eat,"
Li Tao looked up at the sky, "It's not too early." ”
"Yes, yes, let's eat first, head, it's all ready,"
Xia Bomin, who couldn't interject on the side, also said, "Let's talk while eating......"
"They...... But they are all national heroes. ”
Lin Xiao sat there as if he hadn't heard it, and muttered to himself.
Li Tao stared at him, shook his head helplessly, and said with a smile: "If you want me to say, it's not that there is no way to have both......
"What?"
Lin Xiao came back to his senses and asked anxiously, "Tell me about it." ”
"I'm done, let's go to dinner, shall we?"
Seeing that he was a little crazy, Li Tao smiled bitterly, "Xiao Xia specially found the dishes made by the chef of the proud building, and specially picked you up." ”
"Okay, you say, let's eat."
Lin Xiao grinned.
"Actually, you must have thought about this question repeatedly, but you can't make up your mind, right?"
Li Tao glanced at him and said, "I'll give you two ideas, just for reference, you have to make your own ideas on what to do." ”
"Hmm."
"This first way is to refer to the experience of future generations, our ancestors...... How did you treat Fu Zuoyi? ”
"Peaceful co-optation?"
Lin Xiao nodded hesitantly.
He has obviously considered this method, but the times are different and the conditions are different, so it may not work.
"Yes,"
Li Tao nodded and said in a deep voice, "Of course, this method must be forced by force, and it is impossible to say that there will be a few battles first, which will cut off their retreat...... Even if the other party accepts it, it must be extremely painful in his heart, and when he encounters a person with a strong personality, it is easy to break the net......"
"What about the second option?"
Lin Xiao asked. Please Baidu "Throw Book Network" Thank you for your support!
