The crossing conference was held as scheduled. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The crossing meeting went relatively smoothly, and Lu Tianxiang, on behalf of the Fourth Committee, handed over power to the crossing conference. What no one expected was that Qian Binsu was elected chairman.
When the teller and teller jointly announced Qian Binsu's vote, 186 votes, even Lao Qian himself was stunned.
"Old Qian, Chairman Qian." Wei Yang sat down and quipped, "I'll report to you in the future." ”
"No kidding, no kidding." Qian Binsu stood up a little at a loss, "Why did you choose me, I can't be an official, and I've never been an official." Did you count the votes wrong? ”
"Old money." Lu Tianxiang said with a smile, "The statistics of the votes are public, and there is nothing wrong with that." According to the rules of our crossing conference, you are now the fifth chairman. ”
"But, Lu Lao." Qian Binsu didn't know what to say, "I still have a lot of things to do in Qiongzhou Mansion." ”
"Chairman Qian." Shi Xianyang shouted, "In this re-election, you did not declare that you would withdraw from the election, so according to our regulations, you automatically become a candidate." Now that the results are out, if you don't want to be, I'm afraid you can't do it, so you just accept your fate. ”
"yes, old money." The crowd also shouted, "Who wouldn't be an official, but it would be a few days." ”
This matter was so certain, and Qian Bin reluctantly took over the power from Lu Tianxiang's hands.
Since Operation Goryeo had already begun, in order to maintain the stability of Yulin Bay, the General Assembly decided that all the bureaus and all military personnel would not make any adjustments, and that each of them would continue to do their original work.
Xu Lang submitted a motion to appoint Song Yingxing as the general counsel of Yulin Bay Industry and the vice president of Yulin Bay Academy, and to recruit him into the federation.
Because there were no substantive issues involved, the bill was quickly passed. But Shi Xianyang's proposal is tantamount to throwing a nuclear bomb in the crossing conference, which is much more powerful than the effect of amplifying the cannon.
Shi Xianyang reluctantly gathered the signatures of 17 people through a period of busy work, and the "Yulin Bay Judicial Reform Draft" was placed in front of the traversers.
Shi Xianyang stood on the rostrum, resisting flowers and bricks from all directions left and right.
Qin Zhigang, who had retired from the salt industry group of the Industrial Bureau a year ago, and Dong Fei, the owner of the Yulin Bay Hotel, were elected as committee members this time, and the two of them stood up almost at the same time to attack Shi Xianyang.
"Shi Xianyang, you are trying to seize power." Dong Fei spoke first, "The Crossing Conference has the highest power, and this is a matter that we will decide as soon as we go ashore. It is also clearly stipulated in the "East China Sea Pearl Convention", which must not be changed. ”
"Yes, I agree with the Board members." Qin Zhigang stood up for the second time, "If the status and power of the Crossing Conference are shaken, then the people's hearts will be lost." What else can we rely on to make the final decision? Whether it depends on a few judges of the so-called Constitutional Court, or on your personal ruling, Shi Xianyang. Even after 400 years, the principle of minority obeying the majority is the method adopted by the vast majority of countries, do we not believe in the choice of the majority, but the personal judgment of a few? ”
"I do not deny that the principle of the minority obeying the majority is a good principle." Shi Xianyang replied, "But how can you ensure that the decisions made by the majority are necessarily correct, and how can you prevent the majority from the SCO politics of the minority." Don't forget, the truth is often in the hands of a few. ”
"I haven't forgotten." Qin Zhigang refused to let it go at all, "Even if the majority of people's choices are wrong, we must adhere to it, because this is the principle." Shi Xianyang, you are right to talk about principles, but I, Qin Zhigang, am not a person without principles. The interests of the collective are always higher than the interests of the individual, and the interests of the group are always higher than all the interests. ”
"Don't be so angry, dissipate your anger." Xu Lang stood up, "I agree with Qin Zhigang's statement, the interests of the Crossing Group are always above all else. But that's why we need a way to guarantee the interests of the Crossing Group forever. I said in last year's committee election that I wanted to be a sober, tiresome bystander, but why can't we use the system to keep that sobriety alive? In the end, our development needs the guarantee of the system or the quality of the individual. ”
"What's the use of having a system without personal qualities?" Shen Daxing shouted below, "The system also needs to be implemented by people. ”
"That's right, there is nothing without people." Wang Hua continued, "Shi Xianyang, Xu Lang, let me ask you, what do the judges of the Constitutional Court rely on, and don't they rely on their own understanding to make decisions? Is this an institution or a personal judgment? ”
"Actually, I think the two go hand in hand." Gu Yunkun continued to speak, "It's like a person's left and right hands, you can't do it without either. ”
Originally, this crossing conference was held in two days at most, but because of Shi Xianyang's nuclear explosion, it dragged on for another five days. Poor Shi Xianyang kept explaining all kinds of problems and doubts of the traversers during the day, and when he went home at night, he had to fight at night to revise the draft.
As a result, the draft was divided. The question of the establishment of the Constitutional Court was again rejected and shelved, but the proposal to establish a law course at the Yulinwan School was approved. Any traveler and Ming dynasty person is free to sign up for training in law courses.
The General Assembly adopted a series of amendments to the East China Sea Pearl Convention by a three-fourths majority.
"The General Provisions of the East China Sea Pearl Convention are hereby formulated to establish a more perfect region and system, establish justice, ensure tranquility, ensure the collective interests of the crossing group and the individual interests of the crossers, promote welfare, and ensure the eternal happiness of freedom for themselves and future generations.
Fifth Amendment: The establishment of the administrative organs of the Yulin Bay Special Administrative Region and the division of duties and powers must comply with the provisions of the Yulin Bay Administrative Law, and once established, cannot be changed.

Eighth Amendment: The household registration system was implemented in Yulin Bay, and all registered Ming Dynasty people were equal in legal status with the travelers, except that they could not participate in the crossing conference and hold the position of bureau chief or above, and all other aspects enjoyed the same rights as the travelers.
Ninth Amendment: Establish a mechanism for constitutional review. Any crosser has the right to challenge a legal provision that he or she considers to be contrary to the spirit of the East China Sea Pearl Convention to the Cross-Crossing Congress, which must provide a written response within one month.

No one shall suffer life or bodily disability twice as a result of the same offence; shall not be compelled to incriminate oneself in any criminal case; No one shall be deprived of his life, liberty or property without due process of law; Private property may not be used for public use.
Thirteenth Amendment: Shares held by all traversers in a traversal group are not transferable.
Fourteenth Amendment: In view of the present situation, in the event of the outbreak of war or the occurrence of large-scale social unrest, the powers of the General Assembly shall be transferred to a special body composed of a joint Commission and a Military Commission, with the consent of a three-fourths vote of the General Assembly. ”
With the addition of the original four amendments, the number of amendments to the East China Sea Pearl Convention has been increased to 14 articles, and the General Provisions of the East China Sea Pearl Convention will be included as a preamble to the Convention.
Shi Xianyang began to be busy again, on the one hand, he wanted to start a law course, and on the other hand, he drafted a series of laws overnight.
The crossing assembly has come to an end. Under the leadership of the new committee, the second session of the General Assembly was held.
The Federation now has just over 60 delegates, far from a quorum of 100. In addition to the representatives of Wang Kezong and Zhou Chongde, there are also Ye Sunquan, Wu Chengzong, and Ye Zhan, and there are less than 20 of the 40 representatives from various industries in Yulin Bay, the largest head. Most of the people of the Ming Dynasty still had no interest in this federation.
Ye Sunquan sat down with Ye Yan and Ye Zhanye. On the rostrum, Qin Zhigang, who was entrusted by the committee, was talking eloquently as the host of the meeting.
"Ladies and gentlemen, regarding the functions of this federation and the powers of you members, Elder Lu has talked about it once before, and I have reiterated it again just now. So I hope that whether you understand it or not, you can follow the rules we have established.
It has been two months since the establishment of the Federation and has held a meeting, but it does not yet have a permanent body. The purpose of this meeting, therefore, is to elect a Bureau to serve as a permanent body of the General Assembly. ”
"Master Qin, what is the election?" Someone below asked.
"Elections are your own choice." Qin Zhigang explained, "If you think anyone can speak for you and who you think is reliable, you can let whoever serves as a member of this presidium, and this is the election." ”
"I think Master Qin is reliable, without Master Qin, we wouldn't have a good life today."
"Hehehehe." Qin Zhigang couldn't help but smile and said, "The old men of Yulin Bay can't choose, they can only choose among you." ”
"Who's to choose, who can speak for me." The crowd resounded with the sound of chatter.
"Are any of you willing to volunteer to join the Presidium?" Qin Zhigang asked.
Lin Chao, who rushed back from Wanzhou, stood up: "Qin Gongzi, the student is not talented, and he is willing to join the presidium." ”
Ma Qiji also followed and stood up: "I am also willing to join in the next." ”
Before the meeting, the committee entrusted Xu Lang to find these two people and ask them to take the initiative to act as candidates. The Committee felt that the election was a mere formality, and that most of the delegates must not even have figured out what the election was, and that the final selection of the presidium had to be determined by the Committee.
Qin Zhigang looked at Song Yingxing again: "Does Mr. Chang Geng have a plan?" ”
Song Yingxing is also a member of the committee, and he is also the chairman of the presidium.
Song Yingxing stood up and arched his hand at Qin Zhigang: "Young Master Qin, this is the first time you have seen this federation in Yulin Bay. Since Childe values the lower part so much, then it is disrespectful to the lower one. ”
"Thank you, Mr. Chang Gung."
After Qin Zhigang finished speaking, he continued to look at Ye Sunquan, who was the next one who was decided. Just as he was about to speak, a person stood up in the crowd and asked in stiff Chinese, "Dear Mr. Qin, can we also join the presidium?" ”
