The formulation of the statute of laws has always been a long and cumbersome matter, and most of the laws used by Hongmen so far have inherited the laws of the Ming Dynasty.
However, in the laws of the Ming Dynasty, there are too many inhumane places, such as Zhulian, palace punishment, etc., and many laws are too flexible, so that the presiding officials can act according to their own wishes, which causes many dignitaries to have more privileges.
Honest and honest officials have always been a rare thing, and for ordinary officials, they are more concerned about obtaining enough benefits in their own office and striving for more returns for themselves and their families.
For ordinary people, unless they are forced to do so, they have never thought of suing the officials, but if they really want to come to this point, it means that these people are already cornered.
When Li Tianyang was in his previous life, he vaguely remembered some words to describe the law: the law is the last straw for ordinary people, and it is also a powerful means to ensure that the natural inferiority of human beings can be curbed.
Perhaps, Li Tianyang has forgotten what the original words are, and he doesn't care what the original words are, but he cares about one thing, that is, through the law, the people can know what they can do, what power they have, and so on.
A "Public Security Administration Punishment Regulations", the name is Li Tianyang's name according to the memory of his previous life, but its scope is extremely wide, covering all aspects of the people's civilian life, as long as it is not a vicious criminal case, in fact, the content of the punishment regulations can almost be covered, which can help the Public Security Bureau better deal with civil affairs.
As the place that attaches the most importance to charters and treaties, Hongmen has actually formulated countless charters and treaties and ethics from the beginning of its establishment to restrain the various radical actions of the people and deal with the contradictions and disputes that arise in the lives of the people.
However, the law can never be immutable, with the development of Hongmen, some charters have lost their effect, some charters have loopholes, etc., making Hongmen's charter and treaty gradually become bloated.
The most important point is that the constitution and treaty of Hongmen are more from the Hongmen government agencies, and the people are more in a position of passive acceptance, which is likely to lead to a situation where the law is more biased towards the ruling class and does not take care of the people in the future development of a group.
Perhaps, because of the existence of enlightened and fair leaders like Li Tianyang, the law will be more inclined to protect the people, but after Li Tianyang, they will never be able to avoid the fact that the future balance of the law will be tilted towards the ruling class.
Just like the current Ming Dynasty, at the beginning of the founding of the country, Zhu Yuanzhang cared about the people's farming, but with the passage of time, the Ming law in the care of high-ranking officials, royal power and nobles gradually increased, to the north and south of the river everywhere, the root cause is not that the Ming law Dynasty nobles and gentry tend too much, the people can not even keep their own land, a large number of land annexation and natural disasters and man-made disasters are rampant, which caused the collapse of the entire dynasty.
Therefore, Li Tianyang's current efforts in preparing for the establishment of this legislative council are not only to resettle retired members of the Hongmen, but also to allow ordinary people to participate in the legislation, and for them to formulate and supervise laws that involve their vital interests.
"It seems that the Hongmen government is preparing for the Legislative Council, and all the people under Hongmen who can read and write and have personal opinions can go to the Hongmen neighborhood committees to sign up for participation!"
"The function of the Legislative Council: to formulate a series of special bodies and treaties related to the livelihood of the people and the rules of conduct of Hongmen."
"The laws enacted by the Legislative Council, with the consent of all members of the Legislative Council, will be passed throughout Taiyuan Island."
"Registration requirements: All men and women who have reached the age of 16 in Hongmen, who have lived in various parts of Dayuan Island for more than three years and have a detailed residence certificate, must be able to read and write."
"Registration time: from the date of posting this announcement to the end of February 15 of the 14th year of Chongzhen."
"A total of 300 members of the Legislative Council are recruited this time, except for 100 members who are members of the Hongmen government, the remaining 200 members are selected by the people, businessmen, scholars, workers and others under the command of Hongbianmen!"
"All members who are recruited into the Public Security Bureau can enjoy a monthly legislative allowance of three large yuan of silver, and their working hours and rest time are on par with those of members of the Hongmen Government, and the benefits for holidays and New Year are the same as those of members of the Hongmen Government."
A notice was posted, which immediately detonated the entire Hongmen sphere of influence, perhaps many people regard it more as an after-dinner conversation, but there are also many people of insight who have moved their minds and found their respective neighborhood committees to start signing up.
Of course, this kind of thing is not something that ordinary people can do, and although Hongmen is open to recruit legislative members, there will still be certain requirements.
Fortunately, Hongmen itself has always paid attention to education, especially in daily work, and many jobs with better welfare benefits will require an academic requirement, which in disguise forces people to take the initiative to read and write, in order to change their job opportunities.
Moreover, as I have said before, the literati class of the Ming Dynasty at this time was in a period of cultural exchange with the West, and the mind of Mr. Wang Yangming, the great sage, opened up the horizons and hearts of the Confucian children, and later Matteo Ricci, Guo Jujing and other Western priests, in order to promote their religions, brought the advanced Western culture into the Ming Dynasty, and brought spiritual impact to the literati of the Ming Dynasty, so that many literati in the Ming Dynasty were not as corrupt and stubborn as the world meant.
On Dayuan Island, because of Hongmen's maverick development policy and various systems and regulations that are completely different from the thousands of years of history in China, many enlightened literati of the Ming Dynasty who have been opened to their hearts have traveled thousands of miles to learn from the scriptures, looking for a world that can achieve the Datong that the literati and artists have pursued for thousands of years.
Therefore, in today's Keelung Town, in fact, Ye has a large number of Ming literati class, they are not as ordinary people as Hongmen, learning knowledge in order to better find a job, they have rich knowledge and experience, and their vision is not comparable to these people.
After the Hongmen government posted this notice, the first week passed, and the Hongmen government received almost 3,000 registration forms, and even if some registration lists that did not meet the requirements were initially screened out, there were still more than 2,000 lists.
And as time went on, the list grew.
