Chapter 803: The Changed 'Student'

Hirofumi Ito understood the meaning of Huang Zunxian's words. The Chinese government absorbs a vast surplus labor force by investing in labor-intensive industries, and the products produced by these labor-intensive industries are generally necessities for the people's lives, and the Chinese government controls and suppresses the prices of these kinds of products, and buys them into the hands of the people at relatively low prices. This is a business model with small profits and quick turnover, and at the same time, it can also form a good cycle between the Chinese people and these factory industries. People work in factories, participate in production, earn money, and then use the money to buy daily necessities and food. Huayuan naturally integrates into the society, because there are a large number of state-owned department stores and large supermarkets all over China, and the use of Huayuan may have a price discount advantage at the beginning!

When Huayuan was integrated into society, the roots of the Chinese government were also deep. The victory of the Chinese army in the war with the Russians further stimulated the Chinese's sense of identity with the new Qin Empire, and the value of Huayuan's existence was further consolidated. Of course, this is also because China controls a considerable part of the grain trade in the South Seas. Moreover, the Northeast is a treasure trove, and immigrants who come there generally only need one year to become self-sufficient in food. Chinese also took advantage of this to promote large-scale mechanical agriculture, which further reduced the production cost of agriculture and expanded the agricultural output of individuals......

"The enrichment and accumulation of social wealth can stabilize the people's minds to the greatest extent. The people were full of desire to fetch more food. Therefore, oil, cloth, and daily necessities are very scarce. The state grows soybeans in the northeast and cotton in the northwest, as well as hemp, rape, peanuts, bamboo, alfalfa and trees, all of which are cash crops available for industrial production. The farmer planted it and sold it to the manufacturer. Then use the money to buy cooking oil, cloth, furniture, etc., which is also a small cycle.

People buy daily necessities and iron tools. You have to get the money. Slowly, money became a substitute for a product. The common people will forget about gold and silver, and will treat money only as money.

At the beginning of the promotion of Huayuan, many people refused to exchange gold and silver for Huayuan since they could earn Huayuan through labor. However, when the same industrial product appeared in everyone's eyes, when everyone needed more and more things, and the Chinese dollar was not enough, many people took out their gold and silver to the bank to exchange the Chinese dollar. So the government no longer has to worry about the situation that Huayuan is not recognized. ”

"The root of all this lies in the fact that Huayuan has a strong and powerful government behind it."

"The new Qin seized the former Qing Dynasty, and the latter squeezed the country in every way. Groveling to foreigners, and His Majesty the Emperor has repeatedly defeated foreigners, and his prestige has been inspiring the world, and fundamentally won the support and trust of the whole country and the people. This is determined by the position of China in history. It is determined by the pride and dignity that are immersed in the bones of every Chinese. ”

"All these factors are indispensable. This is my emperor descended from heaven to revive my Chinese kingdom. Huang Zunxian said that he was a little off-topic, but that meant that Ito Hirofumi understood very well. Huang Zunxian said that Japan cannot replicate everything in China. The differences between the governments and the national conditions of the two countries are too great. The Japanese worship the emperor very much, but it is completely different from the Japanese government.

This is because the emperor symbolizes the country in Japan. But not the Japanese government.

It is simply impossible for Japan, where the chaebol is powerful, to let this group of economic masters take the initiative to give profits to the ordinary Japanese people, and reduce the wool of peasants and workers. Otherwise, the price of rice in Japan would not have skyrocketed year after year. China has already made an example. The basic rules of state trading have been formulated, and whoever dares to hoard goods and blackmail the price, what awaits him is the crime of disrupting the market! But inside the Japanese Diet and the House of Lords. Whoever is in power has never thought of passing such a bill.

In terms of rights. There is a qualitative gap between Japan and China.

"China is using semi-coercive means to use state-owned department stores and even supermarkets. As long as we can ensure that the goods we produce are profitable, the system can continue to circulate. At the same time, it is difficult for outside goods to enter the Chinese market. Especially in the case of commodities that are traded, this is a trade barrier that is not a trade barrier. ”

"Distort the price!" Ito Hirobumi looked very lonely, the Chinese government has such a powerful force, but such power does not exist in the Japanese government, because the Japanese government itself represents the interests of the chaebol, and distorting prices is distorting the interests of the chaebol. The invisible trade barriers caused by price distortion are even contrary to the overall policy of Japan to draw closer to Europe and the United States. Because, how can Japan, which is actively moving closer to Europe and the United States, resist the goods of Britain and the United States?

Hirofumi Ito compares the gains and losses of the two sides of governance, and the more he tastes, the more he regrets it. The heroes of the original Restoration, one by one, wanted the imperial state to dominate Asia and the world, and they were all ambitious, regarded China as an obstacle that had to be overcome, and insisted on getting closer to Europe and the United States to confront China. Why is it that the overall situation is not to submit to China, like the southwest government, in the position of the saddle before and after the horse?

"It's all ambition!" A generation of elites that have accumulated over hundreds of years in Japan has used their ambitions to push northern Japan to the desperate situation it is today.

The country has no money, the market is shrinking, factories are closing, and agriculture is worried! There is a strong enemy inside, but there is no help outside. The policy of the whole country has reached the point where it needs to be completely renewed.

"Mr. Ito, for Japanese politics, Huang said a word as an outsider, if you don't like it, please include it."

"Huang Sang, please speak up."

"The old man thinks that the power of Japanese politics is too scattered. In today's Japan, it can be said that the people are struggling to make a living, and the ideology of the poor party is spreading fiercely, and it has reached the most critical time. The whole of Tokyo must speak with one voice, and you must concentrate all your efforts to exterminate the radical faction of the poor party and run your country carefully. Personally, I don't want to see a poor country in my neighbors. "The presence of Moscow is enough to make many of China's political elites look down on it, and for the wealthy Chinese nobles, the poor party is the most terrible enemy. If North Japan follows suit, the radical theory of the poor party will become a luminous body at the door of China, a scourge that can attract China's attention all the time.

Although China is behind the Moscow government, none of China's political elites like to see the theory of the poor party spread in China. The reddening of northern Japan will certainly affect a small number of people in China.

Moscow is too far away from China, but Japan is just across the water from China.

Politics has always been ruthless. No matter how enthusiastic a politician or reformer is, he or she will become a killer even colder than a cold wind in the face of an enemy of political ideas. The two never coexist.

After the Second Sino-Russian War, Ito Hirobumi occupied a high position in the Japanese government, and together with Okubo Toshitsu and others, he formed the current Japanese government, and he has always worked hard for his own political ideas, and has used extremely practical means to ensure the implementation of this philosophy -- relying on the imperial power of the emperor to open the way for constitutional government. His wisdom and talent are truly beyond the reach of ordinary Chinese politicians. At this moment, he is as 'obedient' as a primary school student in front of Huang Zunxian, more because of the constraints of the times. Huang Zunxian has been in the political arena of the New Qin for more than ten or twenty years, and he has long been assimilated by the New Qin in terms of ideology and concept, so it seems to be higher than Ito Hirobumi.

National strength confirms everything. In Huang Zunxian's eyes, the only thing that can enter his eyes in Japan today is Japanese education. The Tokyo government's investment in national education is comparable to that of China. Although Tokyo is going to be completely blown up by Beijing in terms of funds, there are only three or five yuan in Tokyo's pocket, but there is a hundred-yuan bill in Beijing's pocket!

With North Japan still able to insist on investing in education when its finances are so weak and there is no extra money, how can Tokyo's emphasis and awareness of education not make Huang Zunxian feel admired?

Last year's statistics showed that Japan's school-age enrollment rate had exceeded 90 percent, while China had just crossed the 75 percent threshold. This figure does not strictly include children in the Yunnan-Guizhou-Sichuan Mountains and Qinghai-Tibet regions. Otherwise, if there is a 70% enrollment rate, the Ministry of Culture and Education will laugh.

China is really not a place for northern Japan to learn from the scriptures, just like the Japan of the Republic of China at the end of the Qing Dynasty in the previous life was not China's 'teacher', Liu Xian took good care of Ito Hirofumi, but what Ito Hirobumi could get in China, only God knows.

In the case of northern Japan, with the departure of Hirobumi Ito, Katsura Taro became prime minister and sat in this position in just one month. Then in July of 1901, a series of actions began in Tokyo.

First of all, they reduced the army, the army to more than 200,000, at least 50,000 troops. The Navy has decommissioned most of its aging ships, but has also sent inquiries to China to order two destroyers and four high-speed torpedo boats from China.

This is the first time that the Tokyo government has purchased ordnance from China. What the meaning symbolizes, everyone knows. Liu Xian also did not expect that Katsura Taro, a representative of the Japanese armed forces and a political representative who should have the most hard-line attitude toward China, would greatly soften China in his administration as soon as he came to power.

However, he still agreed to the purchase opinion sent by Tokyo as soon as possible, and even the transaction between the two sides took only three days, and the Chinese ambassador to southwest Japan signed an agreement with Katsura Taro in Tokyo. It only took three days, all because the Chinese ambassador to Japan was on the way.

After Ito Hirobumi went south to 'investigate', Liu Xian took people to Chengde. He's getting older, and he's a little out of the heat. In June and July of the Western calendar, the temperature in Beijing is high, as if it is on fire. In the second half of this year, Liu Xian had another princess to marry, and two sons to marry.

The closure of the South Seas has been suspended, so the closure of the country in North America is imminent.

More than four years have passed in a blink of an eye, and tens of millions of Chinese immigrants have taken deep roots in this vast and rich land in the entire Viceroyalty of North America, especially in the Midwest of the Viceroyalty!

The foundation of the feudal kingdom exists! (To be continued.) )
