Chapter 283: Peasants and Land, Stock Exchange

Now it is up to us to look at the work ability and work spirit of the leading cadres, and it is necessary to mobilize the cadres to go to the countryside on a trial basis to create experience and promote the overall situation. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 At the same time, the government took the lead in setting up peasant organizations to carry out education on 'who feeds whom' and 'who is insatiable', to eliminate the peasants' old idea of their habitual dependence on the landlord's personality, and to educate the peasants to organize themselves in the struggle for rent and interest reduction.

"Will the formation of peasant organizations cause social unrest?" A senior official in Guangdong Province said with suspicion.

"That's why the government should take the lead and try to hold the leading power in its hands." Chen Wenqiang explained with a smile: "Peasant work is not only related to social stability, but also related to the development of industry and commerce. For the enlightened gentry, as long as they respond to the call of the state, the state will not treat them badly. I can tell you in advance that the government is planning to compensate for the land price with grain bonds and various industrial stocks, so that landlords can invest in agriculture and forestry companies, cement companies, paper companies, and industrial and mining companies. ”

"Of course, the government will never be soft on the landlords and gentry who resist the state's laws and regulations and are obsessive." Chen Wenqiang suddenly said in a cold tone: "The army is loyal to the government, the country, and the people. ”

There are sweet dates and slaps, Chen Wenqiang first depicted the bright prospect of complying with the government, and then turned his face to a cold threat. Whether you know the current affairs or not, it depends on whether your head can turn this corner.

After a pause, Chen Wenqiang turned his head to Xu Chunshan, commander of the Guangzhou Military Region, and said with a smile: "How, Commander Xu, does the army have confidence in calming down the possible violent resistance?" If you don't speak, everyone seems to have no bottom in their hearts! ”

Xu Chunshan smiled. said: "The current army is not the patrol battalion of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, even the new army at the end of the Qing Dynasty is not comparable." Most of the soldiers were poor people, and then there were enthusiastic young people, and they were extremely supportive of the policy of benefiting the people such as fixed rents and fixed rates. In addition, the work of confiscating guns and disbanding the militia has been basically completed. Even if you don't use the military, I think the patrol police can maintain social order. ”

"There is no problem with the police force, and they firmly support the government's policy of benefiting the people." The chief of the police department was an officer under Xu Chunshan, and he was also a member of the Baath Party who developed in the new army in the early days. But it is still certain that it will not be allowed to expand. ”

Chen Wenqiang nodded with a smile, and then said: "Guangdong is the place where the revolution was first born, and it is also one of the more economically developed regions in the country, and the implementation of the policy in Guangdong has reference and guiding significance. The government is watching you, the president is watching you, comrades must continue to work hard! ”

In terms of land distribution throughout the country, the situation is more serious in the south than in the north. This is largely determined by population density. Agrarian reform can not only weaken the economic strength of the rural landlord class, but also eliminate to a certain extent the social inequality that has existed in the distribution of land for a long time. Liberate a considerable part of the peasantry from agriculture.

And with the collapse of the feudal land tenancy system in the countryside, the homesteaders increased massively and drove them to work hard to increase the productivity of the land. It will effectively prompt the rural landlord class to turn land assets into industry and commerce, and promote the development of capitalist production relations in urban and rural areas.

Guangdong was the first to carry out the land reform movement, and not only accumulated a certain amount of experience, but also trained many cadres. As a pilot province, this is the government's expectation and the key to the success or failure of land reform.

Improve the living standards of the peasants, increase their purchasing power, and rationally divert the number of peasants. This is the foundation of social stability and a contributing factor for the development of industry and commerce. Now that we have advanced experience, there is naturally no need for sheep to eat people like the United Kingdom.

Even so, the government believed that land reform would be a long-term endeavour, and since it did not want to rob the rich and help the poor in a hurry, it had to do it in a gentler and slower manner. Of course, the advantage of this is that it can maintain the stability of social order to the greatest extent and will not cause large-scale revolt by the landlord class.

The Government's "Measures for Determining Voter Eligibility" has made it relatively easy to popularize education. Because in this determination method, voter qualifications are mainly limited to two aspects: first, there are normal tax records; The second is that the education level reaches primary school. From the analysis of these two aspects, it can be seen that the first aspect is relatively fixed, and the second aspect is the real variable.

As a result, many parties began to look at the vast countryside and on the peasants who had the potential to become legitimate voters in the future. Because, at this stage, the power of the Baath Party is unshakable, and if it wants to surpass it, it can only hope for the future. Maybe it's three years and five years, or maybe it's eight years or ten years, but we must always find ways to expand our influence, become a major player in the country, and dominate the political arena, which is our ultimate goal.

In this way, when the government called for universal education, set up primary schools in villages and towns, and provided subsidies and free books by the state according to the number of students enrolled, it was not only the Baath Party that issued a demand to the vast number of young intellectuals to base themselves in the countryside and teach and educate people. All parties see this as an important measure to strengthen themselves.

You know, it's not that the peasants are averse to education and learning, it's that poverty makes it difficult for them to afford it. But their desire to see their son Jackie Chan is no worse than those in the city, and the teacher is also highly respected in the countryside, calling him Mr. and not his name.

Of course, the government's universal education is not only for school-age children and adolescents, but also for the eradication of illiteracy, which is also one of the goals of improving the quality of the whole population. In the future, every year the township will hold an adult cultural examination, and according to the results, a primary or secondary school graduation certificate will be issued. This also means that no matter how low your education level was in the past, even if you were illiterate, as long as you study now, you can hope to qualify as a voter.

The huge investment in education is indeed a lot of investment for the government. In addition, this year's budget has already been voted on by the Diet, and if we want to add it, we will have to supplement it by other means.

Mexico's reparations are part of the equation; mobilize the gentry and wealthy merchants to donate, and the government gives honorary titles; The naming rights of schools can also attract the interest of some wealthy people; In this way, we have finally made up for this year's education funds.

Although the current Baath Party is indeed a one-party monopoly, it relies on its financial and human advantages. It firmly occupies the position of the ruling party, and this phenomenon will not change in a short time. However, the Baath Party's administration cannot be regarded as a dictatorship, and it can only be said that the Baath Party is far ahead of other parties in both theory and practice.

It is well known that being advanced is not a sin. And it's not that the Ba'ath Party has left other parties without room to survive and grow. There is no way out if we do not look for fault with ourselves and only want to create adverse effects and obstacles for the Baath Party. The fact that the original alliance will be broken up and abandoned makes this judgment very clear.

At this stage, no one but the Baath Party is capable of implementing a series of good governance. In the final analysis. To govern the country, the most important thing is financial support and talent support, not doctrine. No matter how loud the slogans are shouted and no matter how beautiful the theories are, if there are no concrete means to implement them, they are just tools to fool the people.

It doesn't matter if it's a new party or an old one. The transformation from a revolutionary party to a 'ruling party' or an 'opposition party' has not been completed, and violent thinking has been abandoned. They learn democracy and the rule of law, and seek long-term peace and stability in the country through reform and improvement of the system, they have no future......"

Chen Wenqiang and his entourage were in Guangdong, on the one hand, to summarize and guide the work of the provincial government, and on the other hand, he also needed to check the implementation of specific work on the spot.

After all, words cannot replace reality, and the bureaucratic style of deception and concealment cannot be eliminated all at once. And. He still has some information from secret sources to deal with. This is the Bureau of Investigation, which is part of the Ministry of Justice.

This is quite a bit of the Ming Dynasty Jinyiwei, but for a country, such an organization that investigates violations of the criminal law and supports the law is necessary. It functions more closely to the FBI in the United States.

The Ministry of Supervision and the Investigation Bureau are two institutions that have been effective in making government officials dare not act in a way that deceives their superiors and subordinates. At the same time, it is also a measure to prevent the Ministry of State Security from being dominated by one family and affecting the principle of checks and balances of power.

Moreover, from the beginning of the exercise of power to the present, many officials have been dismissed, which has effectively deterred the officialdom. In addition, the government is also preparing to introduce relevant laws and regulations to prevent crimes committed by officials while performing official duties, so as to complete the entire anti-corruption chain. Among them, the disclosure of assets and the disclosure of gifts have been known to the media.

The corruption of Chinese officials has historical roots and is deeply rooted, and as long as there is a slight relaxation, as long as there are loopholes, there will be many people who dare to defy the law. As Homer said, one of the three main reasons, each of which has to be changed with great effort. In this regard, Chen Wenqiang, a person with memories of two lifetimes, has a personal experience.

It is important for the system to prevent and make up for the defects of the system, and it is not enough to rely on human rule alone. Moreover, it is very necessary to complete the law with severe punishment, and there are not fewer people who can become officials in China, but more people, and if they commit crimes, there is no need to be polite to them.

……………

Shanghai, it's Shanghai again. Chen Wenqiang looked at the crowd waiting on the dock and waved his hand.

Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian, Zhejiang, each province has given relatively detailed work guidance, heavy industry in the interior, light industry in the coastal areas, this is out of national security considerations, but also in reality the navy is weak preventive measures.

As a result of policy preferences and state support, the industrial and commercial development along the coast is booming, and it can be seen from this that the determination and ability of the Chinese bourgeoisie to seek development are still strong even in the face of competition from the commodities of the great powers. The integrity of officials and the soundness of laws and regulations can, to a large extent, offset many unfavorable factors.

For commodity competition, Chen Wenqiang also has his own ideas and plans. In the current situation that it is impossible to exclude foreigners, the retail industry can be done to the extreme, just like a blood vessel, the sales channel of goods to the township, to the town, to the village! In this way, it will block the entry of foreign retailers from the other side, and the construction of retail channels is actually of strategic significance, which has an irreplaceable role in controlling consumer goods and promoting social construction.

This kind of retailer can take the form of the government setting up supply and marketing cooperatives, or it can be contracted to individuals, and even in poor mountain villages, it can adopt the form of tax exemption to encourage retailers, and the only condition that they are required to comply with is to sell domestic products.

According to market research, the sales channels of foreign goods can generally only reach the county seat, and if you want to expand. We can only increase inputs, so that the cost of goods will increase and competitiveness will weaken. Of course, many goods are currently not available in Chinese factories, or are in trial production, but it is necessary to establish this model in advance. Also very visionary.

The boat stopped, Chen Wenqiang put away his thoughts, walked off the gangplank with Ah Xuan hand in hand, and shook hands with local officials in Shanghai one by one.

"Cousin Zhan, Shanghai is well governed, just look at the clean Huangpu River." Chen Wenqiang shook hands with Hu Hanmin affectionately, and said with a smile: "The country's finances are limited, and thanks to the exhibition hall raising money everywhere, new Shanghai." This goal is possible to achieve! ”

"The Secretary of State has won the award." Hu Hanmin couldn't hide the tiredness on his face, and said with a smile: "Being an official for one term and benefiting one party is just doing a good job." ”

"It's like a line from a novel." Chen Wenqiang joked with a smile: "The exhibition hall doesn't have to be too restrained, I just revisited the old place, and I didn't mean to check the work." The government is still very relieved about the talent of the exhibition hall. ”

Probably suspicious of the relationship with dark ghosts. Hu Hanmin is always a little distracted, in the eyes of others. It always felt like I was scrutinizing him. An ordinary sentence also made him have countless conjectures.

Chen Wenqiang was not ignorant of some things about the Chinese Revolutionary Party, but he did not pay much attention to it, because he did not take the Chinese Revolutionary Party seriously at all. Now the overall situation in the country has been decided, even Guizhou, a province that was once controlled by the Alliance. It also fell into chaos because of the struggle for power and profit among the members of the League, as well as overly idealistic practices.

In the end, the local gentry asked the government to settle in the army to stabilize the place, and they were controlled by the Yunnan and Guizhou government forces in one fell swoop. Revolution is not a dinner party. The barren land has left those idealistic revolutionaries head-to-head and forced to put aside their beautiful aspirations.

The League has no base, no financial resources, and no strong manpower, and the government has a name for itself, no matter how much it tosses, it can't set off a big storm. Moreover, it is a good time to examine everyone's minds, and only by exposing what is hidden can we see more clearly and deal with it more easily.

The securities financial market, in its unique way, influences modern society and plays an important role in social and economic development. Ordinary enterprises are not allowed to operate depository, insurance, and financial trust businesses, and the channels through which they absorb funds can only be obtained through banks, insurance companies, and financial trust enterprises, except for the securities market. The securities market provides an important channel for general enterprises to directly raise funds from the public, and companies can absorb a part of social funds into the production field by issuing stocks or corporate bonds.

Moreover, the government can influence the interest rate of securities in the securities market by buying and selling government bonds in the securities market, just as the central bank adjusts the rediscount rate to affect the discount rate of commercial banks, which becomes the government's indirect leverage to regulate the financial industry.

At the same time, when the monetary system is loosened in society, the floating capital will automatically flow to the securities market. The active trading of the securities market will inevitably attract more floating capital from the society, reduce the cost of issuing securities, and make it easier for the business community to raise funds. On the contrary, when the monetary system is tightened in society, funds in the securities market flow to the banks, the cost of issuing securities by enterprises increases, and the scale of investment is relatively reduced. Changes in the supply and demand relationship in the securities market can also form such spontaneous adjustments, so that social funds can be reallocated.

Looking at China, there is no other place that can become a financial and securities center except Shanghai. Although Shanghai's securities business started earlier, it is still far from the government's requirements.

At present, foreign businessmen in the Shanghai stock market are "anti-customer-oriented, overstepping their way and acting on their behalf," which is a problem for Chen Wenqiang and the new government. In order to prevent the commercial hub from being "manipulated by outsiders" and to raise funds, Chen Wenqiang's trip was to preside over the establishment of the "Shanghai Stock Exchange" and break the monopoly of foreign businessmen.

In order to achieve this goal, the government has made preliminary preparations, and relevant laws and regulations such as the Stock Exchange Law, the Physical Exchange Law, and the Gold and Silver Exchange Law have been promulgated, and the rest is organized and implemented by Chen Wenqiang.

After Chen Wenqiang arrived in Shanghai, despite his fatigue, he contacted Shanghai business celebrities the next day to discuss the establishment of the company. At the same time, the wealthy businessmen who have been notified from all over the country have also gathered in Shanghai to participate in the organization and planning.

This is a big piece of fat, although under the banner of "fighting for commercial sovereignty for the country", it is actually a battle of interests. Some people rely on their strong financial strength to monopolize the power of gold and silver trading in securities and goods in Shanghai; Someone wants to apply for the establishment of a separate bullion exchange; There are also people in the securities industry who want to stand on their own, and everyone is arguing.

"The members of the Stock Business Association are all elites in the industry, with many years of rich experience in broker practice, and the establishment of a securities exchange will be 'riveted' this group of securities talents." Chen Wenqiang flipped through the minutes of the meeting and scratched his head a little, "The Jiangsu and Zhejiang consortiums have strong financial strength, and Fujian and Guangdong businessmen have pulled Jin merchants to strengthen their momentum; Nanyang Group has joined forces with Chinese businessmen from Europe and the United States. It's hard, it's really hard. ”

"The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit." Ah Xuan served the coffee very understandingly, and said: "In the past, there were also Chinese people who used to build stock companies, but they only went out of business after more than a year. Now, first, I have rich experience, second, I have abundant funds, and third, I am advocated by the government. As a result, everyone is ambitious and fiercely competing, but it is also reasonable. ”

The old Chinese securities market originated in Shanghai, but it was foreign securities companies that were the first to enter Shanghai's capital market, and they also traded the stocks of foreign enterprises in China. Of the 100 members of the Shanghai Zhongye Public Office, only 13 are Chinese, and the rest are British and Americans, and the focus of trading is also on foreign and Nanyang stocks, with only a small number of bonds issued by the Chinese government.

On October 24, 1882, China's first Chinese merchant institution engaged in securities trading---- Shanghai Pingzhun Stock Company was established, breaking the situation of foreign businessmen dominating the world in the securities market, but after more than a year of prosperity in the stock trading climax, it finally could not resist the sudden change in the market, and disappeared with the collapse of hundreds of firms and money houses in the Shanghai financial turmoil.

"It's reasonable, but it's a little unexpected." Chen Wenqiang sipped his coffee lightly and said, "If you want to settle these rich businessmen, it's not easy to divide the big cake!" ”

"If others can't do it, my husband will definitely be fine." Ah Xuan gently wrapped her arms around Chen Wenqiang's neck from behind and said confidently.

"They don't have a small appetite." Chen Wenqiang gently stroked the back of Ah Xuan's hand, frowned and said: "There are three major consortia faintly formed, all of which want to monopolize and are not afraid of dying." ”

"Sitting on the ground and starting the price, repaying the money on the spot, this is the true color of the buyer and seller." Ah Xuan smiled: "If you don't shout the price higher, how can you bargain with such a shrewd guy as you?" The key is to talk about it, and how to get it together without talking about it. ”

"It's going to have to be talked about!" Chen Wenqiang gently put down the coffee and said a little helplessly: "There is also the plan that has been made, and it will also be revised." (To be continued.) )
