Chapter Forty-Nine: The Open Trial Arrangements for Overseas Infiltration

The same thing that attracted everyone's attention as well as the enrollment work of Yaogang was the first public trial held in Yaogang.

This time, nearly 100 key criminals from various localities were sent back to Yaogang for direct trial, and several thousand prisoners were arrested and detained throughout the country.

At the beginning of the trial in Yaogang, a press conference was held, and one of the main trial principles announced was to completely follow the law promulgated by Yaogang, and the places not involved in the law of Yaogang were tried in accordance with the laws of the Ming Dynasty.

In the past, when Yaogang publicized their laws, everyone just thought it was a little interesting, but now it is really time to use these laws, and it really attracts everyone's attention. Many of the people who were talking about it in Yaogang Square did not believe that these leaders of Yaogang would let go of the families of those who rebelled. Some people are even more worried that if they don't deal with their families, will there be even more people who have no worries about the future and participate in such a rebellion.

Owing to the large number of perpetrators, the Tribunal's first instance proceedings are being conducted simultaneously in several Tribunals.

At the time of the first trial, the performance of the various suspects varied greatly, and many knelt down on their knees as soon as they entered the majestic courtroom. The court respected their dignity and gave them seats in the hands of their clasps.

Not only was it the first time that a suspect had been tried in such a courtroom, but most of the people who attended the trial also saw such a court for the first time.

Many suspects said they would be willing to expose their accomplices as long as they were not guilty of the crime to their families. These revelations were not only recorded, but also recorded at the same time.

Some of the people who pleaded not guilty to death collapsed when they heard the recordings of the revelations in the same case, as well as the recordings of their meetings and plots. The revelation of the same case has dealt them too hard. They know each other too well.

There are also some people who know that they are certain to die, and they don't say anything. However, this does not delay the prosecutor from speaking with evidence.

At the final trial, some of the suspects insisted that they were on the orders of the emperor and did things for the court.

Emperor Chongzhen listened to the live broadcast of the trial every day, and Emperor Chongzhen, who couldn't help it, personally went to the court to question them, was acting for that emperor and doing things for that court.

These prisoners never dreamed that the emperor would come back to confront them, they felt that since the court gave them a chance to speak, they would talk nonsense, and they felt that the emperor didn't know anyway.

The arrival of the emperor completely crushed their attempts to quibble. had no choice but to obediently admit his guilt and ask the court for a lighter punishment.

The trial of such a case takes a long time, and this is what Li Yan and Zhang Zhimu hope for, so as to attract everyone's attention, and newspapers and broadcasts continue to report and publicize it, which can also increase everyone's awareness of the law.

Taking advantage of everyone's enthusiasm, the Yaogang newspaper reported the news of recruiting lawyer practitioners for training. The source said: Those who used to write complaints specifically for the people, and those who are willing to defend the people in the future, need to be trained. Those who pass the examination and training will be issued a lawyer's certificate by the Supreme Court. Lawyers who hold lawyer's certificates may accept or be appointed to provide legal services to their parties. And it is protected and managed by the state. Those who pass the entrance examination must study at Yaogang University of Political Science and Law for two years, and there is no age limit.

This news is great news for those "litigants" in the past, they didn't expect that their industry would also be a legitimate industry protected by the state. The registration far exceeded Li Yan's original expectations. This makes it possible to pick some people well. Zhang Zhimu reminded Li Yan that the character and talent of this first batch of lawyers are equally important, and their quality is likely to have a great impact on the entire judiciary.

While the trial is going on, the recruitment process is also going on. This year's enrollment is larger than last year's. The original School of Commerce and Law became the Yaogang Business School and the Yaogang School of Political Science and Law respectively, and the School of Computer Science and Transportation was newly established. Both the Yaogang Medical College and the Teachers College have more than doubled their enrollment.

Half of this year's graduates are assigned jobs, and half stay in school, continuing to train as graduate students and preparing to become teachers.

Zhang Zhimu and Lu Bingyi, as well as the deans of various colleges, held a meeting to study and strengthen the experimental conditions of each college and improve the scientific research ability. More engineers and technicians in production are required to return to the college to continue their studies and come back to participate in teaching work. In this way, the front-line technicians can have the opportunity to calm down and summarize and improve, and also improve the teaching level of the college.

After finishing the enrollment work, and the various units of the kiln gang also finished the graduates, Zhang Zhimu went to see Emperor Chongzhen and told him to go to the delivery ceremony of the new ship and the completion ceremony of the first reservoir of the Jialing River.

Emperor Chongzhen even said: "Okay! I would love to participate in this. ”

After speaking, Emperor Chongzhen said with some self-deprecation: "This person is also strange!" The more I go out, the more I want to go! If it's okay, I really can't stay at home. It's strange to think about it, when I was in the Forbidden City, I didn't want to leave, and I felt that the Forbidden City was good! ”

"Huh! The emperor is not at ease to go out, right? Zhang Zhimu said.

"Yes and not all!" Emperor Chongzhen said, "At that time, there were no people like you Yaogang, and there was no place like Yaogang, so it was not the same everywhere, so I didn't want to leave!" ”

"We went out this time, first, to participate in the ceremony of the delivery of the new ship to the navy, second, to participate in the completion ceremony of the reservoir on the Jialing River, and the other point is that this year, the floods along the Yangtze River are very large, and many places have been affected. Let's take a look, too! Zhang Zhimu said.

"Yes, yes! I've heard that this year's flood damage is not small. Some villages have been completely wiped out, and many fields have become Zeguo. It's not a small cost to resettle the victims, right? Emperor Chongzhen said.

"We are not afraid of spending money, but in some places, it is useless to spend money, their fields have been washed away, and they have become rivers, and the water has receded and there is no way to cultivate! There are still many people who need to be resettled. However, the people are inseparable from their homeland, and it is very difficult to do the work. ”

"Oops! We need immigrants from Japan and the west, so let's try to accommodate them! Emperor Chongzhen said.

"We subsidized a lot of money to everyone who was willing to emigrate, and our officials in the west promised that when the immigrants arrived, they would have a place to live and put down roots. So that some people agree to go over! Zhang Zhimu said.

"Huh!" Emperor Chongzhen smiled bitterly and said, "In the past, when we couldn't control it, the people would go where they could eat. Now it's good to pour it, and if you don't give the money, you won't go. As if someone owes them! ”

"This shows that the people are living better now, and I especially believe that we will not ignore them, they know it!" Zhang Zhimu said, "Since the people trust us, we really can't ignore it!" ”

"You have the heart and the ability." Emperor Chongzhen sighed and said, "Alas! If you don't have money, there's nothing you can do! ”

Zhang Zhimu knew that Emperor Chongzhen's exclamation was made by feeling. This person can be regarded as trying his best to be a good emperor, but he can only do it in vain!

On this trip, Yan Boju did not follow, but Lu Chengxiang went with him. Since school has not yet started, Zhang Zhimu took Xiaoqing and Xiaohu with him. Emperor Chongzhen also brought the little princess and the little prince with him. Chen Yufeng also brought his two children with him. This time, there were more children on the train, and it was lively. Since the route is still southward this time, Xiao Hongyu and Liu Banzhu also have to come back home to deal with some things, and they also follow together. and Li Zhi also followed this time.

When Ben was leaving, Chen Yufeng asked Zhang Zhimu: "Should we wait for the trial to be over before leaving?" ”

Zhang Zhimu said: "No need, we will try not to interfere in the trial in the future, and it is best if the trial is completed after we leave!" It is to let everyone know that the trial is the business of the court. ”

In fact, Emperor Chongzhen also wanted to wait until the result of the trial before leaving, but Zhang Zhimu persuaded him, and Emperor Chongzhen had to follow.

Their route was from Yaogang to Kaifeng to change passenger ships to the Zhenjiang base, and after attending the delivery ceremony of the new ship, they took a boat to Hankou to stop for a while, picked up Li Mao and entered the Hanshui together, and entered the Jialing River to the Jialing River Reservoir through the newly dug canal.

It was the first time for the children to go to the south, and they couldn't sleep with excitement for a long time, and they could hear Xiaoqing secretly talking to Princess Zhaoyang on the phone at night. It wasn't until the train started that the children knew that the trip to the south was a real thing. Excitedly, where can the children stay in the carriage, running around, and the carriages are running around.

There were too many people in the dining car, so Yang Yulin was driven to Xiao Hongyu's private room, and Zhang Zhimu chatted with Lu Chengxiang and Li Zhi.

This time, I will mainly talk about overseas.

Zhang Zhimu said: "Our production capacity is getting stronger and stronger, and if we don't expand overseas markets, we can easily saturate the domestic market." In particular, our navy is getting stronger and stronger, and our overseas trade must follow the navy to the world. ”

Lu Chengxiang said: "We are not afraid of these things. We have our own people, and in addition, Zheng Zhilong and their Fujian side, there are many people who can go overseas. There are also people in Guangzhou, and ours can use these two places as a base to develop outward. ”

"Going out, this is on the one hand, I also want to build a foreign trade wharf in Shanghai, this is to build a big wharf, all kinds of ships can dock at the big wharf, and other ancillary facilities must be complete. This is to plant the plane tree and attract the phoenix. With such a well-serviced wharf, it is possible to attract merchants from all over the world. We're going to go out and bring in to walk on two legs! ”

"Okay!" Lu Chengxiang said, "When I came back, I took someone to get off the boat in Zhenjiang and went to Shanghai Town to have a look!" Look at what the treasure land selected by Mr. Zhang looks like? ”

Li Zhi, who had not spoken, said: "I've been busy, I didn't bother to talk to Mr. Lu, the personnel we sent to the Ottoman Empire and the Russian Empire, Mr. Zhang happened to be here today, let's study it!" ”

"Well, this time we want to take advantage of the Ottoman and Russian empires to buy arms from us, and we are ready to put forward several conditions to them, one is to establish our shop ticket numbers in Istanbul and Moscow, and at the same time to build cinemas and radio stations. This requires their emperor to seal the big seal and sign the agreement to agree, not something that is done in a daze. So that we can continue to sell them arms. Otherwise, don't talk about it! ”

"Mr. Zhang, the shop ticket number you said is good for us, I understand, but if you want to build a movie theater there, I don't understand the radio station, it takes a lot of silver, or lose money!" Li Zhi didn't understand what Zhang Zhimu meant.

"We have to earn the silver!" Zhang Zhimu said, "But if we want to be influential with them, we have to use our culture to infiltrate them." To educate them about our culture, our political ideas, to attract their intellectuals, who are easily receptive to new things, and who are also influential. After we slowly infiltrate, and then rely on our economic strength, we can gradually find spokespersons in them, and then exert our influence through them. It's a long process, but someone has to keep doing it. In the end, the goal of controlling their country is achieved. This is more secretive than the occupation by force. ”

"As long as our people follow the shops and have the opportunity to meet their locals, we can find people who can serve us, and even control some of the people who serve us." Li Zhi said.

"That kind of work is necessary, but long-term ideological penetration is more important. If you work overseas, you have to spend more energy studying this. It is necessary to study the different situations of each country in detail. In the future, we will be able to make some efforts wherever something happens in the world, instead of watching quietly! This is the manifestation of the power of a great country like ours! This is another extension of our military and economic capabilities. In the future, if something goes wrong in the world, our warships can be there, and our people should have arrived a long time ago! That's what you're going to do next! ”

Zhang Zhimu wanted to tell Li Zhi about the color revolution, but he felt that it was still too early. Li Zhi and their overseas work is still in the initial stage, and there are still many things to learn in the future!

"After our navy is strong, can't we drive overseas?" Lu Chengxiang asked.

"It's a hard hand, and if you penetrate it, it's a soft hand. In fact, by virtue of our economic strength, the officials of the rival countries we have bribed to serve us and achieve our goals is the means at the lowest cost! After Zhang Zhimu finished speaking, Li Zhi and Lu Chengxiang looked at each other, and they both felt that Zhang Zhimu was a little scary.

How did they know that this was what Zhang Zhimu and their country experienced in their previous life.
