Zhu Youzhen carefully checked the urgent mail that was about to be sent to Zheng Zhilong, and was sure that there was no error, so he cleaned it up, and he wanted to thank Spex for proposing a new choice for himself and Borneo, a management system that he had almost forgotten.

If the electoral system suddenly parachutes in the interior of the Ming Dynasty, it will inevitably be fiercely opposed by Shilin, these elites of the Ming Dynasty, in fact, are also the privileged class of the Ming Dynasty, they are influenced by the sage book, is very conservative, anything new, anything new that is not recorded in the sage book, and damage their privileged position, they will not hesitate to use death to block these new things.

Borneo is far away from the core ruling area of the Ming Dynasty, and it is a newly recovered land, and now the impact on the Ming Dynasty is extremely weak, it is simply out of the sight of the Ming Shilin, even if the Meng Yuan, who once established a super-large empire, has not been able to conquer Borneo, which is at most only their nominal territory.

If the electoral system is implemented on Borneo, the island will inevitably create a political #governance culture with merchants as the mainstream, and the merchants will become the political #political elite on the island, and ordinary people will have neither the economic strength nor the time and energy to participate in the election activities, which will be conducive to improving the status of the island's businessmen.

Even if inequality still exists, it is economic inequality, there is a distinction between the poor and the rich, which can be gradually eliminated through individual efforts.

The Dutch established an initial merchant culture on the island, which had already laid the foundation for the Ming dynasty.

Borneo will become the political # governance test field of the Ming Dynasty, its impact on the entire Ming Dynasty is weak and negligible, even if the electoral system fails and the island's economy is in recession, Zhu Youzhen can also accept it, anyway, there is a big tree of the Ming Dynasty, and a Borneo will not become a barometer of the Ming Dynasty for the time being.

If the electoral system established on Borneo succeeds, it means that the Han people are also suitable for the electoral system, and it will provide a new path for Zhu Youzhen and the development of the Ming Dynasty.

Let the agrarian society collapse and quickly establish a modern state, just like the Meiji Restoration in Japan and the bourgeois revolution in Britain#, the Ming Dynasty no longer relied on its huge size, but was known as a great power.

Zhu Youzhen also considered that there are very few Han people on Borneo now, and they are unlikely to be independent from the Ming Dynasty, and the Han people on the island need the absolute support of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty's navy and his own experience in later generations can just escort the upcoming electoral system in Borneo.

In the political # governance system, where is the Ming Dynasty going, Zhu Youzhen has considered it many times, but there is no definite answer, that is to say, he can't figure out what kind of system is most suitable for the Ming Dynasty, he only knows that the current imperial power is definitely not suitable for the Ming Dynasty, hundreds of years of reincarnation, can not promote the progress of society at all, the foolish civil administration # governance and into a dead end, once it collides with the modern system of the West, the Ming Dynasty will be smashed.

So what kind of system is suitable for Daming? Is it a Western-style capitalist system?

Zhu Youzhen was still avoiding this question, based on the normal health value of a person, it should not be a problem for him to consider, at least not for now.

The choice of political # governance system and social system must consider the culture, history, and current situation of the country, and the process of exploring the social system is actually crossing the river by feeling the stones, and no one knows whether the front is flat or a trap, and must be constantly adjusted and corrected.

According to Zhu Youzhen's understanding, in the future political system, in addition to extremely backward or extremely rich natural resources, there will also be monarchs in power, and there are basically only three models of modern countries.

The first is the electoral system represented by Britain and the United States.

Japan, France, Germany and other developed countries, as well as emerging developed countries such as South Korea and Brazil, basically implement this political # governance system, which is the most important system, adopted by the vast majority of countries in the world, although backward countries have adopted this political # governance system, and have not let the country embark on the road to development.

The advantage of this system is that every citizen is nominally the master of the country, they are proud of their nationality, the individuality of the people can be brought into full play, the society is tolerant, and the life of the people is not depressed, regardless of whether the country is developed or backward, because he can express his views freely, regardless of whether the administrative officials listen to them or not.

However, this system also has its own shortcomings, because each citizen's opinions, personalities, needs, etc. are different, and the state emphasizes the independence of individuality, so it is difficult to find the common interests of the whole nation and the whole society, although this model can prevent the emergence of dictatorial figures, but the country's major policies lack flexibility, and the response to changes in international and domestic hot spots is relatively slow, and it is easy to miss the best opportunity to take measures in quarrels.

According to the experience of later generations, Zhu Youzhen said that this model should be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and without decades or even hundreds of years of brewing, the quality of the people has accumulated to a very high level, and it is difficult to penetrate into the hearts of the people, and it is easy to be kidnapped by some interest groups, bringing major disasters to the nation and the state.

The confrontation between the "red shirts" and the "blue shirts" on the streets of Thailand almost turned into a nationwide turmoil, and the farce of the "movement of one million people to flatten the flattening" on the streets of Taiwan has become an international joke.

Zhu Youzhen has studied the successful countries of this model, and the early explorers are all commercial cultures established on the basis of ancient Greek culture, and the suitable soil is in Europe, as for other successful countries, such as South Korea, Brazil, etc., they all have some things in common.

They are themselves regional powers, or they are protected by superpowers, and in the early days of this model, they are rarely subject to outside interference, and the citizens of these countries are highly educated, and their citizens are basically not reduced to tools of interest groups.

The second is the Soviet and Eastern system represented by the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe.

There are also many countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America that practice this system, and before the reform and opening up of the Central Dynasty, this system was also implemented, and in that special era, this system attracted a large number of countries to embark on the road to independence.

However, this system has been abandoned by the vast majority of countries, which proves that this system can only be adapted to special stages, especially in the process of the oppressed nations in the process of their independence, once the country is on the right track of development, this model will definitely hinder social progress, or at least slow down the speed of social progress.

The third is the system represented by the central dynasty.

This system has come to be known as the "Central Dynasty Model", but in fact, it was Singapore on Temasek Island that was first explored and most successfully implemented, but the Central Dynasty had too much international influence and attracted more attention.

The advantage of this model is that there is a strong central government, the country's political situation is stable, and the national policy has continuity, because the elites are not concentrated in the business world, but in the political circles, they can constantly purify their own leadership according to the international and domestic level, revise the country's external and domestic policies, and even mobilize the power of the whole country for the interests of the country and the nation, that is, the national system, such as Singapore's health environment, the two bombs and one satellite of the Central Dynasty, the construction of special zones, the development of competitive sports, etc.

However, the shortcomings of this model are also prominent, because it is not a political party # country in the real sense, there is no thorough electoral system, the change of leaders is basically the use of internal methods, more attention is paid to the overall interests of the country, personal politics # governance and interests are often seriously suppressed, and social contradictions are difficult to be resolved through the replacement of leaders.

In such a society, although the country's progress in science, culture, economy, social security, and other aspects is faster than that of any other country, and the people can also get dividends from social progress, because of the relatively depressed personal life, it is easy to breed opposition, and thus be used by hostile countries, such as the dispute between the prime minister of Singapore, and the Hong Kong # independence, Taiwan # independence, Tibet # independence, and so on that once appeared in the Central Dynasty.

Now Borneo, the Dutch governor Spex, wanted it to maintain a relatively independent status, but Zhu Youzhen, according to Spex's request, decisively incorporated it into his own thinking, and made it a political experimental field for the Ming Dynasty, just like the chief architect of the reform in later history, first let the people see the success of the reform, and then promote it throughout the country.

When the electoral system on Borneo is perfected, the education level of the people in the core area of Ming rule should be fundamentally improved, and this electoral system may be promoted throughout the country.

If this electoral system is truly implemented in Borneo, then the Ming Dynasty will be the first country in the world to adopt an electoral system, although it is only an autonomous province of the Ming Dynasty that has adopted the electoral system.

The Dutch East India Company had adopted an electoral system, but it was a commercial company with a partial state character, no level of government, let alone a state, and the top leader of the East India Company, the Governor, was still appointed, and only the middle executive leaders of the East India Company were elected.

What kind of autonomous province is this new land of the Ming Dynasty called? It must not be called Borneo, let alone Kalimantan, it must be named in Chinese, and even the name of the island in the future must be changed.

Zhu Youzhen stared at the map, his eyes suddenly lit up, Pontianak, this is a relatively concentrated place of Han people, more than a hundred years later, two Han people named Chen Lanbo and Luo Fangbo established the "Lanfang Republic" here, a few years earlier than the United States of America, this is the first country in the world to implement elections and republics, and the name of the country is taken from the names of these two people.

The "Republic of Lanfang" was destroyed by the Dutch due to its small national strength and insufficient support from the Central Dynasty.

Now that Zhu Youzhen is here, he wants to change the history of this fast land.

"Lanfang Republic" will not exist, it will only be an autonomous province of the Ming Dynasty, and the name cannot use "Lanfang", Zhu Youzhen can't explain its origin, and the current Chen Lanbo and Luo Fangbo should not have been born yet.

"Lanzhu", Zhu Youzhen suddenly had an idea, Meilan Bamboo Chrysanthemum, is recognized by the Han people as one of the four great gentlemen's flowers, called Lanzhu Province, which is easy to be accepted by the Shilin of the Ming Dynasty, and this is definitely a Chinese name.

Zhu Youzhen was proud of his creative thinking, and suddenly felt a figure flash at the door.
