"Liu Lan, what Brother Shi said is right, I have been thinking about these questions all this time, what is our goal? A government controlled by a small number of conglomerates and big businessmen can also make the country strong, and I don't think that kind of power is really strong. Luo Jian took Shi Kefa's words and said.

"Yes, some time ago I went down to investigate with Xinghua, and I was very happy to see that the people's lives were much better than in previous years, but Xinghua woke me up, I am comparing with previous years, especially the development of Yangzhou in the past two years, but the development of Yangzhou has not been able to catch up in the previous decades, but has the people's living standards improved accordingly? I don't think so! ”

Shi Kefa, who had already cut his hair short and turned into an inch, had a blazing gaze, and patted the table lightly, looking extremely motivated.

"If you want to solve these problems, it is not a one-time thing, now we still only have half of the country, and so on the whole country, there will be more and more problems like this, if you don't solve these problems as soon as possible, I am afraid that the situation will be more difficult to clean up in the future."

Luo Jian said distressedly, in another time and space, he is just a soldier, although he cares about and understands the development of the country from various channels, but he has no political experience, and he only has a simple perceptual understanding of the development of society and how to solve existing problems.

Now, with the continuous military victories, the situation will become more and more broad in the future, and it will become more and more complicated, and how to deal with the complicated situations in the future, Luo Jian is becoming more and more uncertain.

Now Luo Jian is more eager to learn new knowledge than ever, every night after Liu Lan sleeps, he has to turn on the computer, continue to read and study, Rao is so, still feels that his knowledge is not enough to deal with the new situation.

The provisional government opened three administrative academies in Nanjing, Hangzhou, and Guangzhou, and Luo Jian demanded that every official must go through the study and training of the administrative academies, but the administrative academies only taught these officials how to deal with some political affairs, and what kind of political philosophy should be instilled in these officials, and Luo Jian himself felt confused.

Seeing Luo Jian scratching his head in annoyance, Liu Lan smiled lightly and said:

"Xinghua, don't bother, didn't the chief designer say it?" Crossing the river by feeling the stones', I think this sentence is especially useful for us, we can't expect to build Rome one day, if there is a problem to solve, it is useless to worry. ”

"Yes, the current social situation is different from any time, we have no precedent to learn from, and it is not terrible to have some problems. But..."When Luo Jian said this, he patted the coffee table lightly and accentuated his tone.

"However, there is a problem we must grasp well, that is, no matter how the road goes, we must put the interests of the people first, that is to say, the interests of the vast majority of people are the starting point and foothold of all our thinking about all problems, if we can't do this, we are in vain!"

"Good! Xinghua's words have spoken to my heart. That's why I don't want these people to take control of our government, and I read the book "Currency Wars" that you talked about some time ago, and what it says is really imaginary about our situation today. Shi Kefa also patted the coffee table lightly and nodded vigorously.

"I will handle the matter of railway participation, which involves the lifeblood of the country's economy, and these people must not be allowed to control it. In a few months, our bank will also be established, and if this problem is not solved now, they will also want to intervene when the bank is established, so we will start from the railway and cut off their thoughts! ”

Luo Jian saw that Shi Kefa had exactly the same concept as himself, and his worries suddenly decreased a lot, and he was not afraid of difficulties, but he was afraid that he was left alone to fight alone.

Seven or eight paper mills, including Mrs. Xing's paper mill, were assigned the task of developing special paper, and to this day, numismatic paper and the corresponding printing have been successfully solved technically.

In the past, it was not issued because of financial problems, but now the issuance of banknotes must be based on gold and silver, and the provisional government did not have sufficient gold and silver reserves before, and if it was forcibly issued, it would inevitably cause major credit problems.

With the Provisional Government consciously stockpiling large quantities of gold and silver, the issuance of banknotes was also on the agenda.

Along with the issuance of banknotes, the establishment of banks was inevitable.

It's just that only Luo Jian, Shi Kefa and a few other people know about the establishment of the bank, and they haven't made the news public, but now that the matter is approaching, the preliminary publicity preparations are about to begin, and it is no longer possible to keep it secret.

"Let's bear it together, we can't let you be a villain alone, I have already told Shi Ze, I can't let go of this matter at all." As soon as Shi Kefa heard that Luo Jian was going to deal with this matter, he knew that he didn't want to be a villain, so he took the initiative to say.

"Xinghua, I know you want to follow the path of your predecessors, I don't object to this, but we also have to attract lessons, we must improve some corresponding systems, improve these systems as soon as possible, and we will take the initiative, right?"

Liu Lan listened to it for a long time, she knew Luo Jian's mind very well, and she knew best that the education she had received since she was a child made it difficult for Luo Jian to choose another path.

"Yes, Liu Lan, you are right, the property disclosure system we implemented in Yangzhou is a precedent, if we wait for our government to rot and then make great efforts to rectify it, the resistance will be much greater."

Luo Jian also understands the meaning of Liulan's words very well, in fact, he most wants the Chinese people to live a life like Sweden, Norway and other countries in his time and space, but he understands that this is just his wish.

Not to mention the fact that those countries are the result of hundreds of years of development, even the size of the countries and the imbalance in development cannot be compared.

Although China's population is not large, including only 60 or 70 million people in the area under the rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the concept of "having many sons and many blessings" has been deeply rooted in China since ancient times, and once the problem of food is initially solved, an explosive population growth can be predicted.

The large demand for labor in the early stages of development also makes it impossible for the government to limit population growth from the beginning, and once the population increases, all kinds of problems will become apparent.

The question of what kind of political system the country will implement in the future has always troubled Luo Jian.

From the perspective of their own time and space, different systems in different countries have their own advantages and shortcomings.

At that time, China had established its own basic industries and built a relatively complete national defense system in a few decades, and although the people were not well-off, the possibility of invasion of the country was almost non-existent, except for nuclear war.

And Western countries, including the United States, developed countries, in addition to technological advancement, without exception rely on plunder and colonization to obtain the first pot of gold for national development, and their development is all soaked in the blood and sweat of the people of backward countries and regions, of course, including the Chinese in that time and space.

As a pure nationalist, Luo Jian feels heartache whenever he sees this period of China's plundering and colonization history, but he is not disgusted with his country's ability to colonize overseas.

Shi Kefa came over today to find Luo Jian to unify his thoughts, he has always felt that Luo Jian is a little weak in dealing with those businessmen, so he is worried that these businessmen will ask to participate in the construction of the railway, Luo Jian will agree to them, and now that he understands Luo Jian's true thoughts, he is completely relieved.

"Xinghua, I remember you told me that there is a kind of policy of 'robbing the rich and helping the poor', should we also implement these policies?" Shi Kefa still remembered what Luo Jian had talked to him about the night before last, and this investigation found that the people's living standards were not improving quickly, so he remembered what he had said before.

"Not yet, at present, our main energy is development, we must concentrate on solving the national problem, and now we start to move the interests of some people, our internal instability will be unstable, and when the national problem is solved, we will concentrate on solving these problems, Brother Xian, don't worry, it won't be long."

Luo Jian's remarks were not bragging, but were based on the situation of army building.

The 1st and 2nd Divisions have been expanded in Liangguang, and both divisions have been expanded into corps, with Liu Zhaoji and Li Chengdong serving as army commanders respectively, and Zhuang Zigu and Lou Ting serving as division commanders of the two newly formed divisions, and the equipment of the two divisions has been distributed in place last month.

The cavalry division and Yan Yingyuan's artillery brigade were also divided into two and organized into two cavalry brigades and two artillery regiments, so that both armies also had their own cavalry and artillery.

This means that both armies have become a separate combat group, and in the future they will fight alone, and there is no need to fight together as before.

According to Luo Jian's arrangement, after the two armies completed their training, Liu Zhaoji's First Army would march in the direction of Hunan and Jiangxi, and Li Chengdong's Second Army would attack and advance to Guizhou and Yunnan.

Yan Yingyuan has already rushed back to Nanjing with more than 100 technical backbones of the artillery brigade to prepare for the establishment of an artillery school.

The construction of Wang Qiang's Seventh Division in Nanjing has reached more than 23,000 people, including 8,000 officers and men of the Marine Corps who are training for the navy.

According to Liu Weimin's intentions, Wang Qiang's Seventh Division will partially distribute new rifles, and under Chen Zilong's research day and night, the large-scale production of bullets is about to be solved, and now when some molds and machinery are made, the problem of the production of bullets is about to be solved. If it weren't for the copper problem, Liu Weimin would have wanted to replace all the Seventh Division with new rifles.

The artillery used by the artillery regiment of the 7th Division is also the latest manufactured, and with the continuous progress in the development of optical instruments, indirect aiming has also become possible, and the latest artillery must of course be developed based on this point.

Just last month, the first chemical plant was built on the outskirts of Nanjing, and the output was not satisfactory, but the chemical plant did quantify the production of ammonia, and with a large amount of ammonia, the subsequent nitric acid preparation was much simpler.

With nitric acid, the new HUO medicine can be mass-produced, and Luo Jian feels that it is definitely not difficult to solve the national problem, which is the source and foundation of Luo Jian's confidence.

The Provisional Government's extremely intransigent attitude made the big businessmen in Nanjing and Yangzhou unexpected, and at the same time as the "Law on the Protection of Workers' Rights and Interests" was promulgated and put into effect, the Provisional Government made it clear in the new issue of the "China Daily" that the construction of railways would never allow individuals to participate in the shares.
