Chapter 143: The Rest of the Life of Total Reaction (3)

In the past 20 years, Chen Jian has basically been squatting in school or workshop, and has been a teacher for 20 years, teaching young people who are enough to complete the scientific foundation of Xia Guo in the future, about the level of the first and second years of junior high school in the previous life. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

And the past 20 years have also made the people of Xia gradually take one thing for granted: as long as the government is stable, as long as the law is still there, in fact, there is no person who is in charge of life and death, and everyone is noble, it does not affect the operation of Xia Kingdom.

Some of the Xia people originally jumped out of the clan directly, and they didn't think that people should naturally kneel and be the slaves of a certain person or a certain family; The other part of the people grew up completely under the education system of the Xia Kingdom, and they were quite convinced of the statement that they were the people of the Xia Kingdom, the master of the Xia Kingdom, the successors of the Xia Kingdom, and the law-abiding.

Chen Jian took a completely different path, in his previous life, Zhao Jianzi formulated a law engraved on the iron tripod, Kong Sheng denounced this as a sign of the death of the country, if people are afraid of the law and know the law, then what's the use of a hierarchy? The rite will be broken.

And in this life, Jian Chen was not ready to make any hierarchy such as princes, and from the very beginning, he contained the germination of all this within the Xia Kingdom. Imperial power is not natural, if it is found that this ethnic group is really only suitable for kneeling under the imperial power to grow, then in the future, it will be overturned and restarted.

Centralization of power does not necessarily have to have an emperor above your head. It didn't start and won't have to be in the future.

Hundreds of thousands of people basically have no villages, great technological superiority to suck blood from the outside world, almost stable enlightenment education, from the clan era directly to the current political thinking foundation, if such a foundation does not try something that could have been tried, but say that the lack of the emperor is like a chicken without a head, it will definitely be over, it is reactionary.

Agriculture was the foundation of all changes, and the level of the Xia Kingdom was sufficient to support it, and it was even more advanced than the countryside in the seventeenth century. More land, more advanced tools, scientific fertilization methods, etc., so that agricultural output is enough to support.

Nearly 40 years of agricultural reform and promotion has been continuing, the reform of improved varieties has never stopped, except for the horse-drawn harvester has not been made, Chen Jian can think of all the suitable agricultural tools to get out, but the horse-drawn harvester he really can't do.

Under the premise of private ownership of large areas of land and the employment system, in order to produce more, the farmer had to build water conservancy and hire people to do some work to fertilize the land during the slack time.

A large amount of struvite from the unmined coastal areas was continuously transported back as fertilizer, reaching the yield limit per mu that could be achieved in this era.

From scratch, it took forty years, at least in a small place like Xia Kingdom, it has the appearance of a new era. This is also the reason why he did not attack and occupy more and thousands of kilometers of land while he was alive, and he may still be able to ensure efficient operation of hundreds of thousands of people, but more is really too busy.

Sooner or later, one person will complete the unification, the same text, the same sense of identity, and the pursuit of market unification will force someone to unify, which is not what this generation has to do.

In the past 20 years, Chen Jian has tried to build the grassroots level of the Xia Kingdom, and the original National People's Council has formed a scale and has become a place that everyone accepts and is familiar with.

After the complete reform and abolition of the knighthood system, which was based on public ownership, the National People's Assembly determined the quota of 125 members.

A simple and crude property hierarchy was adopted: forty were officials, forty were owner-occupier owners of more than 300 acres of land or had more than 10 employees, twenty were self-sufficient yeoman farmers who owned part of the land, and finally twenty-five hired men who had nothing but free status.

The previous laws were implemented by relying on Chen Jian's prestige and special two-thirds veto power, so that the people of Xia gradually understood what the rules of the game were, although it was not fair, but it was very suitable for the future development of Xia and planted the seeds of violent revolution. Because the two poorest groups of people can't urinate in a pot, and the number of people together has the right of veto for normal proposals, and when it comes to solving the problem after playing with this rule for hundreds of years, then it can only be used to establish another rule with guns.

In the seventy-first year of the Chinese calendar, which is also the year of the triennial National Assembly, the representatives of the Chinese people elected from Xinhua City, Xia County and the surrounding cities gathered in the royal capital Huacheng.

Because of technological superiority and foreign exploitation, Xia Guo has lived quite well in recent years, the class contradictions are not serious, and the hired workers have survived.

The higher level after compulsory education is that the scholars have become the majority of the Xia people, and they are no longer a special class independent of others.

In school, Chen Jian said an interesting thing: classmates are friends, comrades are the party, friends are to put their respective pursuits on the surface, don't hide them, there will be fights without friends, it is better to fight openly.

As a result, all kinds of childish and ticket-like parties have sprung up in the summer country, and many young people have taken it as fashionable, but after 20 years of precipitation, those sweet and salty parties that play with nature have gradually disappeared, and in the end there is nothing left.

Only the name of a friend was left, which was regarded as a joke by the people of the National Assembly.

After the opening of the National People's Assembly, everyone sang "A Great River" in unison, and after going through many forms, they all understood the purpose of this founding people's meeting.

Two things, declaration of war and expansion.

The reason is that something happened in a city on the south bank of the Great River that was not Huaxia Huimeng, and a young man from the Xia Kingdom who was full of fanatical thoughts opened a private school in that city, teaching people to read and write, and relying on artemisia grass to treat malaria.

Regretting that this young man should have gone to school for a few more years, the habit of that city was not to eat blood food, so the young man relied on himself to read for a few more years, and told those children with the way of thinking of Xia Guo: You don't eat blood food, just because your ancestors were afraid that you would get sick after eating blood food, in fact, as long as it is cooked well, it has nothing to do with the soul......

These words aroused great indignation among the nobles and priests of the city, and forced the young man to apologize, the young man was born in the Xia Kingdom, and his parents were the descendants of the rebellious slaves of the year, but he did not apologize, and was expelled as a result.

The "Great Regulations" stipulate various situations that may lead to war, as long as they comply with the provisions of the Great Regulations, they can directly declare war, but this kind of thing has not happened before, so the people of Xia are extremely angry.

By the way, some workshop owners and large landowners have long felt that there are too few people nowadays, and it is too slow to give birth to children by relying on the country, and there are also a group of non-eldest sons and illegitimate children who have no hair, and they think that it is good to have this opportunity to get some land and some people to farm.

With one hundred and five votes in favor, five against, and twenty abstentions, the National People's Assembly declared war on that city, and Chen Jian watched coldly without intervening at all.

But after the declaration of war, followed by the "Expansion Act" after the victory, the previous Huaxia Alliance clearly stipulated that in the future, no more countries will be divided, only less and not more, so what about the newly conquered land? And most importantly, what about those who have conquered the lands?

The big farmers proposed that non-Chinese people could be used as slaves, and at the suggestion of the agricultural classes, they came up with very "scientific" theories.

"We believe that non-Chinese people can be slaves. Not only as slaves, but also as breeding cattle and horses. ”

"Everyone knows that peas that are short can always give birth to short ones, and cows and horses that are strong can always give birth to strong ones."

"For slaves, it is better to choose some of them as strong slaves, and of course some of them with fat hips as maternal slaves, who live to have children. According to one child a year, it can be born for 15 to 20 years. ”

"He who is born strong is left behind to be raised; and if they are not strong, they shall be drowned. In this way, why should Xia Guo worry about not having the labor to do the work? In less than 50 years, it will be cultivated everywhere. ”

Jian Chen sat there, listening to such a "reasonable" remark, and did not speak.

The following conservative people who hoped that Xia Guo would restore the former public property system shouted: "This is not right, people are people, not animals. ”

"But you're human now, and you don't need to worry about them!"

"We're not for ourselves, we're for more people! This is against the will of our ancestors, who wanted us to educate those who had gone the wrong way, rather than taking them as slaves. Otherwise, the Xia Kingdom would not be so powerful, speaking of which, you don't even have the surname Ji, if it weren't for the fact that the king didn't capture people and treat them as slaves, you would be a beast now! If you want to say so, those with the surname Ji are people, and those who don't have the surname are beasts! ”

Dangdangdang......

The door order was no longer Chen Jian, who knocked on the gong for a while, finally calmed down, and asked, "Is there any other opinion?" ”

One of the workshop owners stood up and said, "We don't think we should be slaves. First of all, being a slave and giving them a free identity, of course, a free identity does more work. Furthermore, when the king says that all the things he makes will be sold, and all of them are taken into slavery, and the rest are killed, to whom will we sell them? A slave can give a bowl of rice, will you buy clothes for the slave to wear? In the end, this is not very in line with the wishes of the ancestors, and it still needs to be educated. ”

"Indoctrination? Do you pay? ”

"We can plant some of them, or we can cultivate the land there, and hire people there. In order to prevent them from resisting, you can also support some people in the city, let them share a little profit, and let their children come to the school. It's better than being a slave. ”

"Besides, if you bring them back as slaves, what will happen to our countrymen? Those who don't have an industry will not allow these people to take their jobs. ”

Chen Jian listened for a while, secretly wanted to laugh, his mind was full of mercenary, and he said a lot of reasons, such as ancestral education, which is always the last reason.

The final bickering finally stopped, and the Expansion Act was finally finalized. After the capture, a governor was established, at the same level as the county commander, but had the right to transfer the local garrison. It was not allowed to import slaves into the Xia Kingdom. All Xia nationals, after the end of their service, can go to distant places to open up, set up farms, workshops, etc., and are exempt from tax within two years. Some of those who have made military contributions in the war can apply for financial support provided by the government......

On the whole, it still protects the interests of the already wealthy Lao Xia people, because the poor have nothing, and even if they go, they have no capital to develop, so they can only find a way to obtain military merits and mix with the financial support provided by the government.
