126 Big Moves
"Hey, it's so lively today, isn't there any big news?"
In an ordinary tea shop in Keelung Town, an old customer who usually frequents here feels that something is going on at the first glance when he enters the door, and the people in the tea shop are discussing something with each other.
"Haven't you read today's paper?"
A guest who was familiar with him looked at his friend in surprise, and then immediately explained: "The Hongmen Legislative Council amended a Hongmen Charter, which was approved by the Hongmen Parliament, and then implemented through the court. ”
"The front page of today's newspaper is full of more than 10,000 words of this charter, and the rest of the pages are also interpretations of this charter."
"Oh?"
The visitor happily got a pair, and then found a shopkeeper, bought a newspaper for a dime copper coin, found a vacant seat to sit on it and read it carefully, and did not forget to order a pot of tea and a few snacks.
The concept of the newspaper is a product of imitating the form of the Ming Dynasty's newspaper, which is not innovative, but it is not the same as the official newspaper of the Ming Dynasty.
Because newspapers report more local news and deeds, each town on Dayuan Island has its own newspaper, for example, the newspaper published in Keelung Town is called Keelung Daily, and the newspaper published in Bengang is called Bengang News and so on.
Of course, Keelung Town will also publish some news and major events from other towns from time to time, but due to the traffic problems at that time, many news have a big gap in timeliness and cannot be reported in real time, which is also the reason why each town on Dayuan Island publishes its own newspaper.
At the beginning of the newspaper's distribution, its starting point was to facilitate the members of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce to communicate with each other, learn about business information in various places, etc., and finally formed the current newspaper form.
Therefore, with the publication and promotion of the newspaper, it has not only become a great platform for the people to learn about the strange things in various places after tea and dinner, but also a good platform for each business to promote their stores and products, and it has become a similar existence in the future.
On the front page of the newspaper, the headline was far more voluminous than the other words - "Hongmen Charter!" ”
"Chapter 1: General Outline"
"Article 1: The existence of the Hongmen is the Hongmen of all members of the Hongmen, and the members of the Hongmen enjoy the rights and status they deserve, and at the same time fulfill the obligations brought by the power."
"Article 2: The lawful members of the Hongmen enjoy the right to freedom of speech and the safety of their lives."
"Article 3: The lawful private property of Hongmen citizens is sacred and inviolable and protected by law."
"Article 4: The Hongmen Ruling Body shall fulfill its obligation to protect the legitimate rights and normal life of legitimate citizens, and at the same time undertake the obligation to protect the interests of the team."
"Article 5: Hongmen citizens enjoy the rights to be protected by various government agencies, and bear the responsibility of government agencies, etc., and pay them in the form of taxes."
"Title II Institutions"
"The existence of the Hongmen is independent of any other governing body, self-contained, and accountable to all the people with legal status within the jurisdiction of the Hongmen."
"Article 2: The only legitimate governing body of Hongmen is the Hongmen government and its subordinate agencies, and any other institutions shall be regarded as illegal institutions."
"Article 3: The sole legislative body of Hongmen is the Legislative Council of Hongmen, and the legal rules and regulations administered by the ruling bodies and law enforcement agencies must be passed by the Legislative Council before they can be implemented."
"Article 4: The only law enforcement agency in Hongmen is the Hongmen Court and its subordinate branches......"
It is the first fundamental law that combines the current Western-style ruling system and the existence of Hongmen itself.
Of course, because of the complexity of the current Legislative Council members and the fact that the knowledge system is not consistent, there must be great flaws, but Li Tianyang believes that after the high-level people make progress step by step, this charter will inevitably become the fundamental law for Hongmen to enforce the law and establish itself in the future.
In the past, Hongmen had issued a law similar to the "Hongmen Charter", which bluntly described the idea of separation of powers, and it was not until the emergence of this law that it was explained in more detail in the official and legal directions, so that the people under Hongmen could know about it.
Among them, among the many articles, the one that people care about the most is the sentence of the charter: this charter is the cornerstone of Hongmen, never abandoned, hereditary replacement!
The people are talking a lot, this is in the eastern country, really from the legal sense to make the people's property sanctification, and it is also a matter of great concern to them.
Among the many kingdoms and forces in the East under the influence of the Ming Dynasty and Chinese culture, they all followed the concept of the sacredness of the imperial power of the feudal dynasty, and pursued the system of the whole world and the princes and ministers.
The "Hongmen Charter" not only stipulates the responsibilities and obligations of the Hongmen government agencies, but also the formal division of powers of each agency, so that the people can see at a glance at the same time, I let the people understand their due rights and obligations, and no longer be as ignorant as in the Ming Dynasty, and let the government fish and meat.
Even for the various taxes collected by Hongmen, there are clear regulations, as well as the regulations and treaties that need to be reformulated in the future and need to be taken, all of which are clearly understood and understood by the people.
For the merchants, the Hongmen attitude of treating everyone equally, is more accepted by the merchants, for the merchant's family, there is no difference like the Ming Dynasty, the meaning of contempt, even the children of the merchant's family can freely choose their future, politics, medicine and other professions are no longer restricted, but also let the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce and other proprietors all applaud each other.
For the peasants, a clear tax policy and the passage of extremely strict tax regulations will allow them to no longer have to worry about the burden on their shoulders.
For the emerging working class, a clear branch of government institutions, allowing them to find the authorities to seek help when they need it, and to get the response they deserve from the power in their hands, is a powerful tool to secure their future lives.
Of course, there are many more things that are not fully understood by ordinary people for a while, but this cannot prevent them from getting together and engaging in lively discussions in groups of three or five, causing a frenzy of discussion among the people.
And secretly, the Ming Dynasty and other teams of people of insight or people with ulterior motives are also collecting today's newspaper and delivering it to the hands of the people behind them as quickly as possible, conducting in-depth research on Hongmen's action.
