Section 552 The Big Question

Yang Chao is very strong, unusually strong, and his tone seems to be stronger than when he faced the great powers and fought for China's rights and interests. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's definitely loaded.

As a politician, I pretend all the time, and I pretend for a purpose, not for the sake of pretending.13

Yang Chao must be tough, because he needs to give confidence to the people who have been tormented by the economic crisis for three years, who are powerless and have lost confidence.

That's why he only said one word, only to tell these people who have no way out, I have a way.

But you can't really tell them what to do word by word, because no matter how strict your reasoning is, no matter how subtle your method, there will always be loopholes, but if you don't say it, then no one else will be able to find loopholes.

Only say that one solves the problem by yourself, the common people love to believe it or not, and at this time, they will believe it, because they have to believe it, which is a lifesaver.

But if you don't say it, it doesn't mean that there is no way, and if you don't say it now, it doesn't mean that you will never say it.

Now I simply tell everyone that I can solve the problem, so that people have a thought, a hope, and not despair.

The real solution to the problem is not the business of Yang Chao alone, it is the business of the whole nation, and it is the person who holds the power who takes the lead.

"Tell me, what do you think is the most pressing thing you're going to encounter right now?"

After the congress said a word to everyone, Yang Chao immediately drove to the presidential palace to have a meeting with Mi Qing's cabinet members.

Mi Qing's cabinet members are not bad in professional quality, and the Minister of Justice continues to retain Wang Chonghui, and it is estimated that as long as Wang Chonghui does not die, he, a scholar-type bureaucrat, will have to do it to the end. The Minister of National Defense has a certain reputation in military circles, but he has never been in charge of the army, but Jiang Baili, who has served as the principal of the Baoding Military Academy for a long time, obviously Mi Qing's political idea is to restrict the army and maintain the civilian system. The Minister of Agriculture and Commerce is Chen Lianbo, president of the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce, and the business group organized by Chen Lianbo is an armed force that is interested in self-defense, and has always been at odds with Brother Pao's revolutionary party. The Minister of Communications is still Zhan Tianyou, and it is estimated that he is the same as Wang Chonghui, as long as he does not die, he has to do it, and any president likes to use this person.

"The problem of unemployment."

Everyone exchanged glances with each other, and Mi Qing, as the president, said first.

Yang Chao shook his head: "This is the fundamental problem, the unemployment problem reflects the economic downturn, and solving the unemployment problem is equivalent to solving the economic crisis." To solve a problem, you have to think big and start small. Say something most urgent. ”

"I think it's the bank's problem. The banks tightened the money, and no one could make money. ”

Chen Lianbo, as the second minister of agriculture and commerce, said that the banks were the first departments to be under pressure during the economic crisis, and they immediately demanded self-protection, and of course they had to tighten the monetary system, collect money everywhere, and deal with the run.

Yang Chao still shook his head: "I will go to Zhang Jiaao to discuss the problem of the bank, he has done his best, at least until now, the monetary system is still running, paper money is still paper money, and it is already difficult to maintain the silver standard." ”

Chen Lianbo hurriedly said: "What Lord Yang said is true, what he said. Though your lordship commands us, we all listen to your lord's command. ”

Then he felt that what he said was wrong, and hurriedly looked at Mi Qing: "Of course, we also have to listen to the president." ”

Yang Chao raised his hand to stop his sycophants: "I think the most important thing is the issue of stability. One is in the cities, and the other is in the countryside. ”

Yang Chao came prepared, he disappeared during this time, but not only went home to pick up the child, the branch staff of Yangzi Bank in various places, during this time he was as busy as a chicken, in the name of market research, collected thousands of social situations around the country.

"The problem of the city is mainly more than 10 million proletarians, some of whom lived in the city in the era, and some have been in the city for decades, and have long since settled down, and usually live a meager salary, and once they are unemployed, they have no economic resources, and the family has no food and clothing, and there is no food, so it is not uncommon to use a knife."

"We have allocated 500 million taels of silver for relief. There will be no starvation. ”

Mi Qing hurriedly explained.

She can be the president, if she has no ability at all, it is impossible, the last time she dealt with the economic crisis, she was also the president, if it is said that Yang Chao has the most experience in dealing with the economic crisis, she is the second.

Last time, Yang Chao told her that as long as Chinese have something to eat, they will not mess around. So as soon as the economic crisis broke out, she immediately ordered the transfer of funds and the opening of porridge sheds in major cities to help the poor.

Yang Chao said: "This time is different from the past. It's no longer the time when people who stutter can be comforted. A few years ago, the market was too prosperous, and all the people had seen the days of singing and dancing, brocade and food, and now let them only eat white porridge, and they can be satisfied in their hearts? ”

The great economic prosperity has created countless millionaire groups, they live a luxurious life, triggering the crusade of some intellectual elites, but in the ordinary people, it is full of envy, the working class in Shandong has lived a worry-free life of food and clothing, close to the rich days, Shanghai people are used to seeing the drunken gold fans of the ten-mile foreign field, at this time let these people go back and drink porridge can be satisfied, it is impossible.

"What Lord Yang said is extremely true, where will those poor ghosts be content, give them a stutter, they still think about gold and silver. Dou Mien, Shengmi Qiu, no amount is enough. Many of my shops were robbed by those poor ghosts. ”

Chen Lianbo's family is a wealthy man in Guangdong, and his grandfather Chen Qiyuan is the founder of the modern silk reeling industry in Guangdong, and in 1872, he introduced Western-style machines and opened a silk reeling factory in Guangdong. The family is a merchant family that operates in Vietnam and Southeast Asia. In his generation, it can be said that there are many shops in Guangdong, thousands of acres of fertile land, and a number of rich people.

Mi Qing glared at Chen Lianbo, this thing is a poor ghost, and it is extremely harsh to hear.

Yang Chao didn't care, and continued: "Receiving relief is a shameless matter after all, and if you want the city to stabilize, you have to let the unemployed earn decent money." I have at least 30 cases of robbery here, and the perpetrators are not going to receive handouts, but would rather rob their homes. But they are not wicked people, they steal and take the things they stole and take home, but they don't let their families know how they came from, and lie to their families that they earned them by doing odd jobs. This shows that they still have a sense of right and wrong in their hearts. ”

"What Master Chen said is very true, listen to your words-"

"So—"

Yang Chao immediately interrupted Chen Lianbo's sycophancy, Mi Qing glared at this fellow again, he can be the president, the Chen family has contributed a lot, not only mobilized the entire Chen family's forces to pull votes for him, but also gave more than 800,000 taels of silver for the funding alone, she reciprocated the favor and gave the Chen family a place to enter the cabinet, which is not excessive.

It's just that Chen Lianbo's business habits are too heavy, and habits such as slapping horses can't be changed.

Fortunately, Yang Chao was not surprised and continued to talk: "So we have to give them a decent job." From now on, the government will recruit staff in large cities across the country, and they will not need to have a high degree of education, but they will be able to read and count. How many people there are, how many moves, there is no cap. ”

Mi Qing was puzzled: "You don't say that the unemployment problem is the fundamental problem, could it be that you plan to solve the unemployment problem in this way?" ”

Yang Chao shook his head: "Government employment is not a formal occupation, this is a temporary occupation. When the economy improves, we will lay off employees. We must be clear about this point with them, so that some working intellectuals do not think that it is not good to give up their jobs to apply for the civil service because they have the opportunity to become civil servants. ”

This is not a formal job, and the government directly recruits workers from the cities to temporarily control unemployment, but it is not a long-term solution.

"And these people have to do something, otherwise they will think that this is another way of relief, a kind of charity. As for what to do, I'll talk about that later. Now on to the rural issue. ”

"Rural issues are further divided into rural areas in the south and in the north, and there is a clear distinction between them. In recent years, more than 100 million people have continued to return to their hometowns from cities. The livelihood of these people when they return to their hometowns is the biggest problem. There are three ways for returning farmers to make a living: first, they own their own land and farm to survive; the second is that they have no land and rent land to live; The third is that the land cannot be rented, and the relatives are relieved. ”

"The first type of people only accounts for about 30% of the total population returning to their hometowns, and this part of the people has a livelihood so that they will not be chaotic; The second type of people can endure hardships for some time; The most pitiful people are actually the third type of people, who just returned to their hometowns, they still had a little savings, and now they are deflationary, and their money is worth more than before, and they can still hold on. But the vast majority of people have exhausted their savings within a year. Now, three years later, the vast majority of people have nothing to live with. ”

"The situation in the rural areas of the south is better than that in the rural areas of the north, because the clan power in the rural areas of the south is stronger, and even if they rely on their relatives, most people still have a hope and can still rely on it. Their clan organization in the village with the same surname as a link is still very complete. The poor people in the north relied on relatives and friends at first, but most of the relatives and friends of the poor are also poor, and ten days and a half months are okay, but they still can't live for a long time. Due to frequent wars in the north, the power of rural clans is far less powerful than in the south, and many villages are actually villages with mixed surnames. It is often an agricultural village composed of a landlord and a group of tenant farmers. Such villages have their own old tradition of surviving the famine, that is, the landlord lends usury during the disaster, borrowing one to repay ten, and the peasants can only borrow food to save their lives. The landlords who were willing to borrow usury were even quite conscientious, and a few vicious village bullies took advantage of this opportunity to force the peasants to sell their sons and daughters. ”

"Therefore, now not only is the law and order in the cities very chaotic, but also the countryside is beginning to be unpeaceful. As far as I know, in Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou and other places, there have been bandits that have not been seen for many years. In many places in the north, there have been cases of peasants robbing landlords and eating big households. Isn't it all because life can't go on, so I pick up a knife and beg for a living? Since the knife has been moved, it means that the problem has reached the point where there is no room for delay, and if it is late, there will be changes, and the country will be in chaos.
