Chapter 202 - Agrarian Reform (3)
"Lao Dou, you have to listen to me as a son in this matter, this field will be handed over to the work team, won't people also give you land bonds? If you still want to continue to run a farm, you can also apply for a report, and the land will not be rented for 15 years, where can you find this kind of good thing? In Yulin, Guangxi, Pan Yuchengzhen, dressed in a major's uniform, was trying to persuade his father, Pan Fugui, the largest landowner in Yulin, to accept a proposal to exchange government bonds for land.
Pan Fugui is in his fifties this year, and the Pan family's family business has been passed down to him for the ninth generation, and as the patriarch, he is now worried? The old rule, when you are upset, light a bag of hookah and smoke it slowly.
Pan Yucheng is twenty-one years old this year, he is the youngest of Pan Fugui's three sons, but in Lao Pan's opinion, he is also the most promising, at least he dares to run away from home and go out to join the army, which is better than the two who nest at home and wait for him to die. Because of nutrition, although Pan Yucheng is close to 1.8 meters tall, the most obvious feature of Guangxi people is thin and black, but there are a lot of them on him, so he also got the nickname of a bamboo pole when he was in the military academy.
Pan Yucheng escaped to study in the Guangxi Army Primary School, but later followed Zhao Hengti to participate in the Guangxi Aid Army, and then went to Nanjing as a beggar for more than a month, Zuihou inexplicably became a member of the Tiger Brigade.
Due to physical problems, Pan Yucheng of the first phase of Zuihou's teaching team was not selected, which is why he is still a major. Later, the first phase of the Xiangxi Army Military Academy opened, and Pan Yucheng was sent in to participate in a crash course. However, Pan Yucheng has a characteristic, that is, when he fights, he is very flexible in the execution of tasks, and he will never retreat but will not be brutal. Later, he was incorporated into Li Zongren's Seventh Brigade, and during the Changde Blockade Battle, the company he led suffered the fewest casualties and the greatest results, which attracted Li Zongren's attention. In the battle of Guangxi, as the deputy battalion commander of Zhang Xuguang's regiment, when the battle was at its most intense, he was very brave enough to lead a company of men and horses to launch a counter-charge against the Gui army, which was already at the end of the crossbow, and defeated Mo Rongxin's personal guard battalion on the spot. In the end, the will to fight of the Gui army was shaken, which led to the general retreat of the Gui army.
After the war, Pan Yucheng was promoted to battalion commander and stepped into the ranks of school officers, and currently serves as the commander of the second battalion in the 701st Infantry Regiment. Moreover, because of his previous performance, Colonel Zhang Xuguang, the old regiment commander who admired Pan Yucheng very much and had been transferred to the first division chief of staff and the commander of the 101st regiment, personally greeted Liu Zhenhuan, the commander of the 701st regiment.
A few days ago, the Rural Work Team of the Kuomintang Socialist Party, which was in charge of carrying out land reform work in the Yulin area, approached Pan Yucheng and mentioned the problem of land reform in Yulin, to be precise, the problem of Pan Yucheng and his father Pan Fugui.
Unlike other places in Guangxi, the folk customs of Yulin are very strong, but Pan Fugui relied on the Liliang of the Pan family to firmly control almost half of the land in Yulin, which is quite amazing. But this also means that the land reform work in Yulin has become more difficult, if you can do the work of getting through Pan Fugui, then you will get twice the result with half the effort, otherwise you may fall short.
Sun Qiankun, the leader of the task force, came to Pan's house almost every day for half a month to report, and Pan Fugui was so annoyed that he almost asked his subordinates to drive out this cheeky captain, but when he saw the officers of the security forces who followed Sun Qiankun, Pan Fugui could only disappear behind closed doors. In Pan Fugui's view, if he can defeat Lu Laoshuai's army, he can't afford to provoke a local tyrant.
Sun Qiankun, a 27-year-old former primary school teacher, was one of the first members of the Kuomintang to join the National Socialist Party, and has always hoped to make progress politically. This land reform was a very difficult task, but Sun Qiankun was still the first to sign up. Naturally, the organization department wanted to encourage such an activist, and immediately appointed him as the head of the entire Yulin District Work Brigade, and was responsible for coordinating the land reform of the entire Yulin County together with the special commissioners of the Yulin County Government and the Patrol Embassy Government Affairs Bureau.
The idea of finding Pan Yucheng to come back to do work was the result of our Captain Sun pondering and meditating for several days, and now it seems to have some effect, and he is now sitting in the room watching the Pan family's father and son fight.
Pan Fugui took a few puffs of hookah, he didn't answer his son's words, but looked at the polite Sun Qiankun and said: "Captain Sun, we can be regarded as old acquaintances in the past half a month, I really admire you, in order to move me, the old man, even the third child of my family asked you to call back." But admiration is admiration, there is one thing I don't understand, you weishenme want to take away the land in my hands, and rely on such a pile of land bonds that cannot be eaten or used. In addition, I want to allow my clansmen to leave their families and work in the city, what is the difference between this and directly breaking up our Pan family and destroying our ancestral hall? Without these men, our Pan family will be fat in the eyes of others sooner or later, don't you say? ”
"Old Bean!" Before Sun Qiankun could answer, Pan Yucheng complained and shouted to his father.
Pan Fugui raised his hand to signal Pan Yucheng not to speak, his eyes staring at Sun Qiankun.
Sun Qiankun had already had a plan in his heart, he smiled, looked at Pan Fugui and said softly: "Mr. Pan, I think you have a big misunderstanding of the policies of our party and government. First of all, I want to tell you that this era has changed, and it is no longer the Qing Dynasty. Now it is the Republic of China, emphasizing the rule of law and upholding fairness. The purpose of our land reform is not to crack down on local tyrants and divide the land, but to turn agriculture, which originally depended on the sky for food and had high risks and low profits, into a new large-scale and industrialized industry through such a land reform. It's the farm I mentioned to you before, as for the land bonds, it's not that you can't see or eat, you can use this to invest in the factory that the government is about to open, become a shareholder in it, and enjoy dividends. And this is also the second goal of the land reform, and our commander has long thought clearly: once the farming is carried out, a large number of surplus strong laborers will no longer have to farm, but will go to the cities and factories to work, and become part of the urban population. There is also the problem that you said that the departure of the strong man will endanger the security of the clan, and any disputes in the future will not allow private fights, all of which are under the jurisdiction and ruling of the court, what do you want so many men who can fight? And even if they enter the city, they are still members of the Pan family, and their ancestors are still in this place, aren't they? We haven't almost broken up your family and destroyed your ancestral hall in the land reform......"
"Don't jump around with new terms, I don't understand" Pan Fugui was a little anxious, "I know a little, if the land is gone, what will my Pan Fugui family eat and drink?" Why don't you drink the northwest wind? ”
Sun Qiankun was still not in a hurry and said: "Mr. Pan, first, we are not confiscating land, but requisitioning; Second, the subject of the requisition has the right to contract the land free of charge for 15 years in accordance with the standards set by the Government Affairs Bureau, and the contract will be transferred to the contractor at the market price at the expiration of the period. The land bonds you requisition will also be converted into shares of the Guangxi Development Corporation, and the annual dividends will definitely not be less than the land rent you collect. ”
Pan Yucheng was also anxious: "Lao Dou, the shijie outside is really different, now that people's machines are turning, our family's land output can't catch up." If you don't look at anything else, just look at your son and me, wearing a crisp uniform, and getting thousands of salaries a month, you know? In Anjiang, the most common soldier and worker were paid 80 yuan a month. I don't think it's even forty for you to collect rent on this acre of land. We can run our own factory, the income is definitely not less than the land, and the eldest brother and the second brother can also make a living from it, not better than playing mahjong every day at home?"
"The third child, proud, I have become an official and have come home to teach Lao Dou and my brothers a lesson" Listening to the voice, Pan Yucheng's second brother Pan Yu'an and eldest brother Pan Yunian walked in.
The eldest brother Pan Yunian is a stuffy gourd, generally silent, and likes to follow the crowd. It was the second brother Pan Yu'an who spoke out just now, Pan Yucheng and he have not dealt with each other since childhood, although the two are brothers, they are not a mother. Pan Yucheng was born to Pan Fugui's concubine, and the eldest and second were born in the main house, and the age difference was seven or eight years old. has been bullied by his second brother since he was a child, so although he is not a brother, he has a bad relationship. So he looked at Pan Yu'an coldly and didn't answer at all.
Pan Yu'an suddenly lost his face, and he said to Pan Fugui with a pale face: "Old Dou, don't promise them, I think the third child put on a dog skin and forgot the ancestor of the Pan family, otherwise how could he do this thing?" ”
As soon as Pan Yucheng heard this, he immediately became angry: "Pan Yu'an, you are still a brother." What nonsense are you talking about? You said that I eat inside and out, okay, then you have an idea, look at the current land reform, what should our Pan family do? ”
Pan Yu'an tilted his head and said, "What should I do?" The sky of this Yulin is our Pan family, and the earth is also our Pan family, what bullshit Wang Dashuai, the National Socialist Party, when he arrives in Yulin, it is the dragon he has to give me Pan Erye to lie down, and it is a tiger He has to give me Pan Erye to coil. This land reform, our Pan family will not change, I see what kind of bullshit team can take the second master and me, come here, copy the guy, and drive out this surnamed Sun for me, and this guy who wears dog skins and eats inside and out, from now on he is not a member of our Pan family, he is just a wild seed, and he will be driven out together. ”
Sun Qiankun looked at this scene coldly, Pan Yu'an's appearance made the whole situation take a turn for the worse, but Pan Fugui, the master, had been smoking hookah, and he did not say a word about Pan Yu'an's arrogance, and he had a great sense of acquiescence.
And here Pan Yucheng was already furious, and with Pan Yu'an's shout, Hulala in the main hall suddenly rushed into more than a dozen people with big wooden sticks, and immediately wanted to take people out.
Pan Yucheng pulled out his special shell gun and slapped it on the table, and shouted angrily: "I see who of you TM, if any of you dare to touch Mr. Sun, blame me Pan Laosan turned his face and didn't recognize people, Lao Tzu has crawled out of the pile of dead people a few times, I am still afraid that you will not succeed today." Who is not afraid of death, even if he does it, he is afraid that I, Pan Laosan, will recognize him, and I can't recognize it with this gun! ”
