Yang Xiuqing presided over the convening of the king, the marquis and the principal officials of the ministries and armies in Beijing, and began to talk about the "Heavenly Dynasty Tianmu System" that was about to be promulgated. There are two versions in his hand, one is the original old version, and the other is Fu Shanxiang and others, according to the materials provided by Lin Haifeng, the Dongwangfu version of the "Provisional Heavenly Dynasty Tianmu System".
It is said that it is the "Heavenly Dynasty System of Fields and Mu", but in fact it is far from being a simple decree on land distribution, but a new policy and measure centered on solving the peasant land problem and involving economic, political, military, cultural, educational, and social reforms.
In the original, it divides the land into nine grades, with good and bad evenly matched. It is then divided equally among the population on a household basis, regardless of gender. Full portions for those over 16 years old, and half portions for those under 15 years old. In terms of village organization, it is completely in accordance with the establishment of the Heavenly Army, that is, with 25 units as the basic units, called "two." Two "two", set up "two Sima" to preside. Every five families set up a "captain", and each family sent a person to serve as a soldier, "if there is a police, the leader will be a soldier, kill the enemy and catch thieves, and if there is nothing to do, the leader will supervise him as a farmer." ”
Economically, each grassroots unit establishes a "state treasury", and "when the harvest comes, the two commanders of the two horses and governors will return to the state treasury except for the food of each of their twenty-five families, and the rest will go to the state treasury, as will all wheat, beans, ramie, cloth, chickens, dogs, and money." If each family encounters weddings, funerals, childbirth, etc., they can collect the expenses from the "state treasury" according to the regulations; Widows, widows, lonely, disabled, and other people who are incapacitated for work are also supported by the "treasury" expenses. In addition to farming, peasants also have to use their spare time to raise pigs, chickens, and silkworms, and engage in household sideline and handicraft production such as weaving, sewing, making pottery, woodwork, and stone making.
In terms of the political system, the township official system is implemented. All officials above the county level are generally appointed by the generals of the Heavenly Army. The local township officials were held by poor peasants. The "Heavenly Dynasty System of Fields and Mu" also stipulates that local officials are elected by the people, and "every year in the world is made to make up for the lack of officials." If a township official is poor and lawless, the people can report and expose it, and they can be dismissed at any time.
With regard to women's policy, the Celestial Empire System stipulates that women have the same power as men over the distribution of land and means of subsistence. Women may participate in military and political affairs. Set up female officers and open a department. Religiously, both women and men can participate in worship of God. A ban on foot binding and the sale of marriages was also proposed.
In the area of marriage, it is clearly stipulated that "marriage in the world does not have wealth", and the marriage of buying and selling, which treats women as commodities, has been abolished. For men and women who are married, the Celestial Empire issues a marriage certificate for the free union of men and women -- "Hehui", which registers the name, age, place of origin and other items of the married person, and is also stamped with the seal of the dragon and phoenix.
In fact, if it weren't for the absolute utopianism of "everyone in the world is not selfish, and everything belongs to the Lord" emphasized in the "Heavenly Dynasty Tianmu System", this system cannot but be said to be a very good thing.
Yang Xiuqing took out this old version at this time, just to be a foil. Everyone knows that Tianjing has already broken the sacred treasury system now, and everyone has clearly seen the benefits of reality. There is no difference between mentioning the old version and not mentioning it, in short, everyone will oppose it.
In addition to enriching and revising the old version, the current version of Dongwangfu has several major changes, and the ownership of land is very different from the past. In this version, only the nationalization of the country's mineral resources was emphasized, and individual exploitation was strictly prohibited, but the land proposed the coexistence of peasant privatization and nationalization. Although the rural organizations have replaced the previous management bodies with peasant associations, and it seems to be similar, the "Provisional Heavenly Dynasty Farmland and Mu System" has changed the forcible selection of peasants into the formation of peasant self-defense units and self-defense groups in the villages, and the peasants themselves have defended their homes and townships, and clearly put forward the slogan of "one qiē power belongs to the peasant associations" in the villages. In terms of education, it is necessary to popularize schools and develop a new type of school education that cultivates talents who can be used in the world. There is a more critical one, that is, to establish a silver standard monetary system, to determine the national currency "one yuan" (including six dollars of pure silver, four cents and eight cents, that is, about equivalent to one silver dollar), and set one-tenth of a yuan as a corner, and a tenth of a corner as a cent. The one yuan of the national currency will be minted into ninety percent silver and one percent copper coin, and at the same time one dime, two jiao, five jiao, and one, two, and five copper coins will be minted to assist it. As for the issue of equality between men and women, which was originally very strong, it is not only highly sought after here, but also clearly proposes to resolutely implement monogamy on the basis of ignoring the past.
When it comes to monogamy, since there is a premise regardless of the past, it is naturally easy to temporarily win the support of the upper and lower levels. The princes have what they should have, and whether they want to have it or not is a matter for the future. There is no one more, from not allowing one to allowing one, which is originally a progress, or a favor, and it is too late to be happy, who would think of anything else.
A high degree of centralization has the advantage of centralization, and Lin Haifeng has seen this clearly, as long as the king of the east can agree, it will be easy to implement anything. The people of this era are far more simple than the people of a hundred years later, and they will earnestly abide by the one advocated by the state. Therefore, on the issue of monogamy, he did not include the word "advocating" in his draft, but "resolutely implementing".
Wei Changhui really didn't expect that the new land law would be proposed in the name of Dongwangfu. Since it was a negotiation, he originally thought that the "Provisional Heavenly Dynasty Tianmu System" should be proposed by Lin Haifeng, and Dongwang might not accept it so smoothly. Moreover, he also stirred up some disgruntled people. In the Heavenly Army, quite a number of middle-level and high-level officials in the two Guangxi provinces have already expressed doubts about the practices of Wuchang and Zhenjiang. They donated all their furniture to the holy treasury, followed the king of heaven to Tianjing, slashed and killed all the way, shed blood and sweat, and in the end, the land became people's own, and they became a complete proletariat instead of having anything. Of course, they are unbalanced. But they don't want to be officials themselves, and their food and clothing are still provided by the Heavenly Pilgrimage Vault. His family worked in factories, farms, and trading companies in exchange for income to support his family. Coming from a peasant background, they value tangible things. No matter how big an official is, only when there is good land at the door of his house and surplus grain in the hoard, then his heart will be solid. Because this official may not be able to be a lifetime, let alone inherit it to the next generation.
But he underestimated Yang Xiuqing, the king of the East. Yang Xiuqing, the iron-fisted king of the East, he is the same as Lin Haifeng, Shi Dakai and others in the big view, that is, he hopes to have a powerful Celestial Empire, completely overthrow the Manchu court, and benefit the people at the bottom.
So, he took out the old version and put it there, and everyone was free to choose one or the other. He is not like Lin Haifeng, he still has time to talk to you about the future, there is no need. Can he not understand the psychology of those who want to oppose it? It's just that the Heavenly Army hasn't hit Liangguang yet, and those people can't see their vested interests and are unbalanced in their hearts. As for the future? Maybe in the future, when the land is reclaimed to the state, maybe these people will dance more happily. Of course, in front of the Tianchao Tianmu system in the East Prince's Mansion, after all, a temporary word was added. There is no need to slap the table, stare at the eyes, and there is no need to coerce and use, as long as Dongwang proposes it, everyone will support it. This is not a prestige made out of bloody drums, but a noble image that has always been vigorously and resolutely styled and wise, deeply engraved in the minds of the soldiers of the Celestial Empire. In the Celestial Empire, the East King was sacred and a symbol of correctness and victory.
The so-called research and discussion meeting ended not long after. In this era, there is no need to discuss and study, understand or not, the rest is only a matter of how to implement. And it must be meticulously executed.
Lin Haifeng and Zheng Nan laughed.
