The wheel of history may be truly unstoppable, and although there are always several forks in the road, the final direction is forward rather than backward. As a politician, Zhu Jishi's 30-year political career has let Zhu Jishi know that when he leads the entire country to a fork in the road that is completely different from the original historical process, a series of chain reactions are bound to occur. And the original huge historical inertia is still playing a role to a greater or lesser extent.
Because many of the fundamental factors that make up the evolution of history are not something that Zhu Jishi can change, such as China's huge population base, which is both a great wealth and a burden at the same time. Especially when the "feudal yoke" that had been pressing on hundreds of millions of Chinese for an unknown number of years was torn off one by one by Zhu Jishi and Chinese society, which was striding towards capitalism. After the gradual implementation of compulsory education and the concept of citizenship has been established. Hundreds of millions of Chinese have truly become a force that "can carry a boat and capsize a boat". And new repressive forces have not been formed.
Zhu Jishi's policy of external expansion has been to a large extent intended to guide this force outward...... Otherwise, this force will definitely set off turbulent waves within the Ming Empire, just like what happened in history - unsolvable land contradictions and lack of survival resources, and only a strict and powerful ruling apparatus can maintain the peace of the country. However, the bourgeoisie dynasty established by Zhu Jishi could not be up to this mission. Therefore, external expansion has become the only feasible way out.
However, even if the living space of the whole nation has been greatly expanded, the land contradiction has been greatly alleviated, and food is no longer a difficult problem for the whole nation. The lax mode of rule of the capitalist system and the exploitation of wage labour. There are also tens of millions of young workers who have received compulsory education. It also contributed to the birth of the Chinese Socialist Party, a political party representing the interests of the working class.
But this party will become a major force in Chinese politics in the future. In the early days of his life, he was extremely low-key and cooperative. Not only did they not hold any anti-war demonstrations, but they also openly called on the workers to join the army to fight for their country, and they also shouted the slogan of suspending the workers' movement until the end of the war...... They even openly distanced themselves from the International Workingmen's Association, who had helped them, and published statements in the major national newspapers condemning the terrorist activities of the Narodnaya Narodnaya Narodna, calling it a betrayal of Russia and the Russian working class, and acting as a lackey for the German, HRE and Polish imperialists to invade Russia! In short, the banner of patriotism was held high, and no matter how much the teachers in Warsaw criticized it, they were unmoved.
Anyway, the generation of Chinese Socialists of Jiang Zhaocong and Chen Xifan (trade union lawyers) was not raised in Warsaw. The Socialist Party is based on hundreds of large trade unions – and these unions do not depend on the Socialist Party for their feeding, but on the millions of Chinese workers who have joined the unions.
The current Chinese Socialist Party is a bottom-up party, not a party in which the higher authorities lead the lower levels and the whole party obeys the central authorities. Any trade union that is attached to the Party can at any time bow down to the Socialist Party and turn to support the Jishi Youth Party and the Donglin Party. Therefore, the Party serves the working class, not leads it...... At the same time, in order to allow the party to gain more room for survival, the Chinese Socialist Party did not aim to "overthrow anyone's reactionary rule" from the very beginning, but hoped to pursue common prosperity as its goal. From this point of view. The Chinese Socialist Party is actually just the Chinese version of the British Labour Party, and it is really a reformist party. And this party leadership. They are just opportunists who are bent on climbing up.
So when the leaders of the Socialist Party, Jiang Zhaocong and Chen Xifan, expressed their willingness to serve the imperial court through their crown prince Zhu Guoxiong, Zhu Jishi did not show surprise. Instead, he happily invited the two of them to the Tangshan Hot Spring Palace.
In the Yanyu Pavilion of the Hot Spring Palace, a Hong Kong-made chiming clock showed three o'clock, and Zhu Jishi, the crown prince Zhu Guoxiong and Princess Anle Zhu Yisha, sat on a chair and drank tea leisurely, discussing the introduction of scientific and technological talents from Europe, while waiting for the arrival of the leader of the Socialist Party. Now the scientific research institutions of the Ming Empire probably have the largest funding in the world. However, there is still a shortage of local scientific research talents in Daming, and it is necessary to introduce some more from the world. Especially since the war in Europe has been ignited, there are many people who want to leave that land of right and wrong, right? This opinion was put forward by Zhu Yisha, who maintained correspondence with many European scientists, and now Britain, France, Germany and other countries are relatively stable, but there are already some signs of confusion in China, Poland, and Russia. In particular, scientists from many Slavic countries under the HRE are flowing out. In addition, because the Jews were found to be involved in the assassination of Alexander II, there was another round of anti-Judism in Russia, and many Russian Jews were also looking for a way, many of them were a little famous in science.
When he was almost finished talking about the introduction of scientific talents, he saw Zhou Xiulan, the waiter, walk in, muttered a few words in Zhu Jishi's ear, and then Emperor Zhu said, "Okay, let them come in." ”
Zhou Xiulan turned to leave. Emperor Zhu smiled and said to his daughter: "Isha, I already know your opinion, and I will start to do the matter of introducing talents." Oh, by the way, what have you been working on lately? Are you still following Mendeleev's list of elements to discover unknown elements? ”
Zhu Yisha replied with a smile: "Father, my daughter's recent research direction has changed back to bacteriology, hoping to find an antibacterial drug that can replace berberine." ”
"Oh." How did Zhu Jishi know that his daughter's research direction was determined by the content that his favorite concubine Kusumoto Takako secretly copied from his notebook. Because Zhu Jishi was originally a doctor, a lot of the content is related to pharmaceuticals, bacteriology, biology and so on.
"That's good." Zhu Jishi smiled and nodded, his daughter seemed to continue her previous life trajectory, which made him very happy. "Isha, let's talk about it today, I want to meet the Socialists."
"My daughter quit." Zhu Yisha stood up, saluted her father, and turned to leave. As soon as the front foot left, Weng Tongyi led Jiang Zhaocong and Chen Xifan in. The two of them gave the emperor a kneeling salute, and then stood with their hands down and waited for the emperor to ask.
"Sit down." Zhu Jishi nodded at the two and motioned for them to sit down and talk. "I know your party."
Socialism! Zhu Jishi heard in Germany in later generations that he aimed at socialism, but did not have the courage to make a revolution, and vainly hoped to achieve his goals through elections and trade union activities. As a result, the good and modest Europe has been ill with high welfare, and it is still unrepentant and dares to slander the real socialist countries of the Soviet Union, China, and North Korea as the countries with the least socialist elements! This kind of party can only be described as hateful! If it weren't for the fact that he had already become a reactionary emperor and couldn't help himself, he would definitely let Jinyiwei destroy them all. But now, we can't make them feel too good.
Zhu Jishi paused and lowered his voice: "Now the country is at a life-and-death juncture, serving the country is what you politicians should do. Pan Zuyin and Li Hongzhang were preparing to form a wartime cabinet, and the Socialist Party could also join. ”
Jiang Zhaocong and Chen Xifan glanced at each other, this happiness came too quickly, right?
"But you have to do things for the country." Zhu Guoxiong took over the topic and said with a smile, "The emperor knows that you and the International Workers' Association have something to do with the Russian Narodnik Party. ”
As soon as they heard these words, Jiang Zhaocong and Chen Xifan's faces changed slightly, but they quickly regained their calm. If the emperor wants to deal with them, he will not invite them to the hot spring palace. Zhu Jishi's Hongmen banquet was not yet their turn to eat.
"I know you're not the same as Bakunin and Nechaev." Zhu Jishi looked coldly at the two socialists in front of him, and they didn't look like outlaws.
"But I want you to get in touch with Narodnaya Narodna." In fact, there is a secret connection now, but it is not carried out in the name of the Ming Empire, so there is no way to talk about many issues. Zhu Jishi estimated that the Narodnik Party was likely to come to power after Russia encountered great difficulties due to the war. The Ming Empire needs to establish a communication channel with these madmen in advance. And the Chinese Socialist Party is very suitable to undertake this mission. (To be continued......)
