Chapter 201 - Agrarian Reform (2)
Chen Gongbo didn't know that the handsome weishenme would be angry, but he still reflexively shrunk his neck and didn't dare to speak again.
On the contrary, Chen Shao unconsciously stood up and said: "But Dashuai, this land problem has not plagued our country for a year or two, how can we solve it?" ”
Wang Zhenyu: "There was no way to solve it before, but now aren't we running an industry?" I think there's a way. ”
Chen Shao was stunned: "What does this industry have to do with this land?" ”
Wang Zhenyu: "You all do the calculations, is it the value of industrial products or the value of agricultural products?" Is it the industrial profit that is large, or the agricultural product that is profitable? In order to strengthen the effective control of the regime over the people, a large number of people have been tied to the land through various measures, and in addition to farming and being an official, other livelihoods are regarded as illegal, such as businessmen are not allowed to be officials, such as entering and leaving the road to guide people, people must be registered, and the official-based thinking kills people, comrades? ”
Chen Shao didn't seem to agree: "If there is no household registration system, wouldn't the world be in chaos?" Businessmen are cunning by nature, how can they be public in the world, if businessmen can be officials, how can the world not be chaotic? ”
As soon as Chen Shao's words came out, both Zhou Zhiyun and Ye Zuwen's faces became very ugly, these two were serious businessmen before they became officials, and they were businessmen for generations. Chen Shao's approach is almost equivalent to pointing at the monk and scolding the bald donkey, which is a bit of a reference to Sang scolding Huai. However, Chen Shao has a habit of not haode, and he generally does not pay attention to the surrounding situation when he speaks.
Wang Zhenyu saw it, and he hurriedly interrupted Chen Shao's words: "That's not right, Comrade Chen Shao." The businessman weishenme is cunning, there is no political status guarantee, when he is in the official position, it is a piece of fat that anyone can bite into, if he is not cunning, not tired of teeth, can he still live this day? And businessmen are shrewd and good at running their families, so we don't let people who are shrewd and good at running their families manage it, and we can't let a bunch of people who don't know how to do it and are good at losing their families. Look at Director Zhou and Director Ye, aren't they also businessmen and are in charge of local government affairs in Xianggui? Look at how their family has been doing in the past two years? ”
Having said this, it can be regarded as understood, although Chen Shao is from Wang Xuemen, his brain is not stupid or stupid, and he immediately found that there was a problem with his previous words, and quietly glanced at Ye Zuwen and Zhou Zhiyun, who were pale, and his neck shrank unconsciously, and then nodded at Wang Zhenyu and sat down dejectedly.
Wang Zhenyu is also happy in his heart, Chen Shao is very involved in trouble, he has always been such a characteristic, and it is quite cute to think about it: "I have a round field here, I believe that our Comrade Chen Shao has no opinion on our Ye Lao and Zhou Lao." ”
Now that the big handsomes have come out to save face, Ye Zuwen and Zhou Zhiyun had no choice but to laugh at it, and the topic continued.
"Now that the fundamental question of historical land reform has been solved, there are only two paths before us. First, according to the traditional method, land is distributed, and then generation after generation breeds, the government of officials continues to be corrupt, land annexation intensifies, and the rich have no land to stand on. And we estimate that we will also be ancients by then, so let him flood the sky, and our descendants will be like Emperor Chongzhen, find an old tree with a crooked neck and hang himself by himself. This time I went to Beijing and went to Jingshan, and the old tree with a crooked neck was still there, watching us there......"
Everyone was sweating by Wang Zhenyu's words, this is too infiltrating, Wang Zhenyu should not be a handsome, he should be a storyteller, and the story of the ghost blowing the lamp is the best.
Zhou Zhiyun was silent for a moment and said, "Then Dashuai, what about this second way?" ”
Wang Zhenyu smiled slightly: "The second way is a bit tricky, although there are ready-made examples, but it is not easy to do. Because the idea that the land is the only one is too ingrained in our country. One word, it's difficult! ”
Ye Zuwen suddenly became interested, and his daughter was angry, and gave birth to two children to Wang Zhenyu in one go. Although it is now the Republic of China, the constitution of this power has not been clarified until now, and there are hereditary and elected people. But after all, Ye Zuwen is a person who has lived in the Qing Dynasty for forty years, in his opinion, the emperor is gone, but hereditary is difficult to avoid, after all, this old Chinese can see through everything else, but not through his own children and grandchildren. Therefore, it is estimated that the son-in-law's country will still be passed on to his grandson in the future, so he is very interested in how to avoid the monstrous flood after death: "Wenzheng, no matter whether it is difficult or not, you speak out first and listen to it, if it is difficult, the big guys will discuss it together, there are more ways than difficulties!" ”
Zhou Zhiyun also echoed: "Yes, Dashuai, is it difficult, you say it first." We're here to help, and even the biggest problems can always be solved. ”
Wang Zhenyu nodded with satisfaction and said: "The second way is to change the current rural and agricultural structure, as for what it will look like, you can just look at the United States, our goal is to turn agriculture into an industry, farmers into a profession, and then bring a large number of surplus labor from the countryside to the city, let them become industrial workers, and let them live freely in this land." However, this difficulty is obvious, do you know what the situation is in the countryside now? Will the peasant weishenme be tied to the land? I commissioned Minister Zeng Qi to conduct a more in-depth investigation, and the conclusion surprised me. In fact, in China, there are three reasons why peasants are bound to the land, the official standard I mentioned earlier, and physiocratism is the first reason; The second reason is because of the clan power controlled by the feudal clan shili, this thing is very powerful, don't underestimate it, the orders of the emperors of the Weishenme dynasties are not under the county, and the Weishenme county is governed by the gentry outside the county? It's in this link. The Xinhai Revolution was so troublesome that the emperor was driven away, but Confucianism and feudal clan power were still operating there as usual. The structure of the whole society has not changed much, and now it has reached the point where it is impossible to do so, and without breaking the small peasant economy and lifting the shackles of land on labor, we will not be able to develop our modern industry, unify the whole country or even become a new power. However, after thousands of years of development, feudal clan power and Confucian culture have long been invoked and entangled with each other, and it is not something that we can suppress with an administrative order. And we must clearly realize that this feudal clan power is different from our past administrative power, and the foundation of the people is based on our Chinese reverence for our ancestors, so this thing is not easy to deal with, one is not good, and the people not only do not feel that you are fighting for their personal freedom and personality independence, but feel that you are disrespecting his ancestors. This is the same as that religious fanatics, so although we have to carry out land reform now, we must also pay attention to this detail, otherwise I estimate that not only will the reform fail, but we will also disappear into the long river of history after a lot of civil strife. ”
Ye Zuwen, Zhou Zhiyun and the people present couldn't help frowning after listening to Wang Zhenyu's words. Friends of later generations may not be able to imagine the strength of feudal clan power in this era, and do not understand the sacred significance of the eldest grandson of the eldest family to a family. Since the introduction of the patriarchal system in Confucianism, this inheritance system has become the sole criterion for the distribution of family benefits, which is more sacred than private property in the West and Allah of Muslims.
And these patriarchs also use clan power to bind the men, women, and children of the clan around the family as much as possible, after all, there are many people, and the battle for land and water between the families often requires fists rather than laws. But a big drawback of this approach comes out, the patriarch has become the emperor of the soil in this small area, and if he is kind to his own people, forget it, if he doesn't haode, he will take it and take it, and he has the power of life and death. Once the total amount of benefits is insufficient, they will encourage these clansmen to fight with other clans to obtain benefits, which is one of the main reasons why Weishenme has been fighting in the vast rural areas for thousands of years.
Now Wang Zhenyu's spearhead of land reform is directly aimed at the landlord and the patriarch, but the difference between the two is not big, in many places, the patriarch and the landlord are often the same person, if not the same person, most of them are close relatives.
Moreover, Zhou Zhiyun still has a piece of information in his hand, that is, most of the young officers of the Youth Army, many new members of the National Socialist Party, and many government officials, most of them come from such families. There is no way, the poor who can read in this era are really rare, and there are only a handful, so if you want to move the clan rights and land, it is likely to lead to internal instability, which cannot but be worried.
But fortunately, Wang Zhenyu thought of all these sufferings: "You don't have to panic, you don't have to be afraid, we are not Li Zicheng, we are not Hong Xiuquan, we don't bother to do anything about killing people and seizing property, and we don't care about Yin's wives and daughters." The first step is to solve the land problem, send the task force down in the name of the party and the local government, and see what good way can be used to replace the land in the hands of the landlords, make unified planning, redistribute it, and spend less money if it can be spent; The second step is to do the work of those not too stubborn enlightened landlords and gentlemen, who have all read the books, and the stakeholders can see through it as well as us, and this can start with their children who serve in our office, take the lead in giving compensation for political status, and follow up with economic benefits, but in the future, disputes involving the law must be handled through the judiciary, and this principle must be adhered to; The third step is to explain the reason clearly to those who are stubborn, let the local security forces cooperate, pick a few people who are happy, kill the heads who should be killed, and go to jail if they should be imprisoned, in short, our goal must be achieved, and our goal will definitely be achieved. I just hope that through this land reform, we can train three to five thousand grassroots workers, and if we really want to expand our territory in the future, these people will be the foundation for us to consolidate the new territory in the future......."
