It was September in North America. "We are the people, we are the citizens, we are not the subjects. There have never been citizens in England! " In Richmond, the capital of British Columbia, such political propaganda could be heard in the hotels.
Lloyd? Senator George sometimes went to the pub to drink, and he heard this many times. He didn't care about such a statement. Everything changes slowly, and this is especially the case for social change. It had been two years since Britain regained New England. After many discussions, including the colonial minister Cecil Rhodes's life, the British Empire's administrative system, which had never had a written constitution, was adjusted. The entire British Empire was divided into eight provinces, and the most important was that all the administrative districts of Great Britain were under the British Province. The entire British Empire was divided into eight provinces, and the most important was that all the administrative districts of Great Britain were under the province of Great Britain.
No matter how ruthless the politicians in Downing Street were, they still represented the British elite. For example, in the guidance of public opinion in the old American territory, the British did not consider turning the Americans into the Queen's subjects. As long as the situation of the United States in South America was more critical, the Americans in the south would try their best to pull people from the original American territory to the south. At the same time, the British mainland sent a steady stream of poor people to North America.
As the rising star of the Liberal Party, Lloyd? George put forward several bills. From the "Division of Land Use Types" to the "Provisional Regulations on Land Application Management", including the latest "Land Replacement Act". The Liberal Party's whole set of land distribution models was passed. Those mines could be discussed later. The Liberal Party first tried to capture the hearts of the British poor. Those poor people could apply for a minimum of 40 hectares of land in the North American agricultural area. The blueprint for these policies came from China, so even the agricultural cooperatives and agricultural technology exchange institutions were almost the same.
Lloyd? Senator George had never imagined that he could lead to so many laws. Such an achievement didn't make him feel particularly happy. After the previous strong experience, politics was more like an obligation and responsibility for the Senator.
He ate in the pub where he was used to eating and listened to the common speech of the Americans. Lloyd? Senator George walked out. It wouldn't be long before all the Americans took the citizenship oath on New Year's Day, 1894. Just like the guys in the tavern had said, after the oath, they would no longer be citizens, and they would no longer be the owners of these lands. The land of the British Empire legally belonged to the Queen, and the people of the British Empire were the subjects of the Queen. This was the rule of the British Empire. Many people who were loyal to the United States had already left. If those who refused to bend their knees were willing to leave on their own initiative, they would be able to live in Laohe County. In Senator George's opinion, it would be great!
The British Empire had a very clear view of the world situation, and their understanding of the world was no less than that of the British Empire. The current president, Shen Xin, made a judgment during the political standing committee meeting. "In the next three years, there won't be a large-scale war against the Democratic Dynasty. We should focus all our energy on internal affairs."
Even though this was the consensus of everyone, even though no one really cared, Shen Xin had to say it. As the president of the country, even if he didn't have the authority to make decisions in front of the founding leader, Shen Xin still insisted on doing his job. Of course, after making a strategic plan, Shen Xin asked, "Commander-in-chief, when do you think this world will be at peace?"
America need need to have Are Need British Are Need Have American. " Vézé gave an answer. "As far as he was concerned, in the 21st century, nuclear weapons contributed to maintaining peace, but the level of a country was the key. In addition to the World War, the major industrialized countries had maintained their own peace, and non-industrialized countries had all kinds of wars or large-scale conflicts. "Governor, you still have the attitude that you need to be strong." The political committee disagreed with Vézé's words.
Vézé didn't bother to say more. With the current land endowment and productivity level, the Min dynasty had the right to be arrogant.
If he forced the situation that his comrades couldn't see on the table, he wouldn't be a genius who was half a step ahead, but a lunatic who was one step ahead. If he forced the situation that his comrades couldn't see on the table, he wouldn't be a genius who was half a step ahead, but a lunatic who was one step ahead.
Vézé didn't say anything, so President Shen Xin continued his duties. "The issue of restoring the Han Dynasty's Yellow River and Dreamy Cloud Lake involves too much. We can only make adjustments to the land approval and freeze the development projects in these two areas for the next two years. We'll deal with it when the new five-year plan begins. "
After saying this, the president said, "We've allocated manpower and budget to conduct archaeological and research on the Han Dynasty's Yellow River and Dreamy Cloud Lake water systems."
Vézé just nodded silently, indicating that he understood. The Yellow River's southward migration was related to the Yellow River's artificial excavation during the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, which led to the Yellow River's southward migration. A big reason for the fall of Dreamy Cloud Lake was the problem of soil and water conservation in the Yangtze River and the entire basin. A large amount of sediment had caused the lake to gradually disappear. To solve this problem, the only way was to clear the silt regularly. But starting such a project at the end of the 19th century did have problems beyond productivity.
However, Vézé was in power, and power meant that he could decide the direction and content of the country's investment. For example, if Vézé dared to say that the old Yellow River channel should be re-excavated, the country would do it regardless of the cost. Emperor Yang of Sui had gone bankrupt because of the construction of the Grand Canal and was finally destroyed. Before the Min dynasty couldn't bear it, Vézé's order could probably still be carried out.
Seeing that the Military Governor Vaize didn't say anything, it seemed that he didn't want to see the full effect immediately. No one did anything to strengthen these water conservancy projects that had no concept. There was a lot of work that needed to be strongly promoted, and the first was the issue of enterprise reform.
The president was directly in charge of these matters, and he refused to say anything. Shen Xin had no choice but to speak. "The comrades are very emotional now. There are many enterprises on the list this time. Your Majesty, many factories are going to be removed. No one wants to be merged by others. "
"The war has been going on for four years. During these years, how many products did they provide have a failure rate? Their labor productivity is so much lower than that of other enterprises. What else is there to say now? "Vézé's voice was very calm. Private enterprises could still be completely determined by the market. They lived if they made money, and died if they didn't. State-owned enterprises couldn't use this kind of standard. The level of production and management was an important standard that determined their fate.
No one spoke on this issue. This wasn't silent support, but speechlessness. The others didn't care about this. The president was unhappy, but he didn't dare to refute Vézé. After a while of fear and pressure, Premier Wang Haiyang opened his mouth. "Your Majesty, although there aren't many enterprises to be removed, the comrades have a lot of opinions."
Seeing Premier Wang Haiyang speak, the other members of the standing committee secretly sighed in relief. Those who could become the directors of state-owned enterprises weren't people without background. The leaders could ignore these people, but there were always people they had to pay attention to. And the directors of state-owned enterprises might have connections with these people. Even if they didn't have any connections before, during this time of reduction, everyone would use their connections to protect themselves.
Vézé said calmly, "This is the time to talk about politics. I have already begun to ask for a meeting at all levels of the party organization to explain the reasons and methods of this reduction to everyone. Also, we need to strengthen education within the party about the world's outlook. Time's up. Whether it's a success or not, this round is over. Even if a certain job ends, it doesn't mean the end of life. As a member of the Restoration Party, we must have this view of the world. "
The president wasn't too impressed by Vézé's words. The party, government, and army were still under Vézé's control. The position of president, the highest leader of the government, had been given to Shen Xin. Even earlier, the position of the prime minister had been independent, and there had been several prime ministers. So when it came to solving the problem, Vézé didn't talk about reality, but talked about reason. This made the president, who was carrying out the specific work, feel a little disapproving.
With this mood, the president couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, it would be great if the comrades listened to me just because I said so."
As soon as he finished speaking, Vézé didn't say anything. Shen Xin's expression changed. The change on his face was nothing compared to the emotions in Shen Xin's heart. The Restoration Party had an elimination mechanism, and the prime minister's words made Shen Xin want to eliminate the younger generation. If they couldn't keep up with the party's pace, it would be good for everyone to be eliminated. As a prime minister, if he couldn't even make good use of the power in his hands, he was already unqualified. At the very least, he had no responsibility, no courage, and no ideas.
Vézé's face was calm, and he said calmly, "If the comrades have doubts, then the comrades of the Central Committee should first determine their own views. Since we are going to carry out ideological education for the whole party, we should first hold some meetings for criticism and self-criticism. These basic party systems have been established for so many years, but they have been better implemented in the military summary during times of war. In fact, they are not very useful in terms of personal cultivation. The war is over, and we have entered a period of peace. Although we are busy with work, we are not so busy that we have no time. We should carry out ideological education in this regard. "
Shen Xin had always been the political commissar of the army, and political and ideological work was his job. Listening to Vézé's proposal to improve this system, he was half happy and half worried. Ideological work was the most difficult, not because human beings were good at deceiving others, but because human beings were very good at deceiving themselves. If ideological work was done well, the comrades' thoughts could be liberated and even sublimated, and from then on they would have an epiphany. If it was not done well, it would only create more confusion, and it would also create a group of foxes using the tiger's might to intimidate others. Those foxes using the tiger's might to intimidate others would only make things worse.
Time passed quickly, and October was the start of the Three Meetings. For the past twenty years, the Military Governor Of Vaize had played the leading role in the Three Meetings. And this time, the Three Meetings were presided over by the President of the State according to his authority. The Military Governor Of Vaize had unexpectedly devoted himself to the establishment of party affairs. Seeing that he had actually taken over this position, Shen Xin's uneasiness was tinged with excitement, and his excitement was tinged with uneasiness.
The President was elected by the people, just as the title of Emperor and the supreme power of the Military Governor Of Vaize were granted by the people. The Prime Minister himself was a member of the Central Committee of the Restoration Party, elected by the political standing committee and approved by the Politburo meeting. In other words, the President was the Prime Minister's boss. The core of this five-year plan was to solve the management level of state-owned enterprises, and the specific implementation was naturally reported by the Prime Minister.
Shen Xin found Prime Minister Wang Haiyang. He thought that Wang Haiyang would probably be in a difficult position, but he did not expect Wang Haiyang to say with relief, "The problem of the factories has been solved."
"It's solved?" Shen Xin was a little puzzled. The factories that were to be laid off this time were all munitions factories, and the criteria for the layoff were their production performance in the war. The vast number of soldiers and soldiers, as users, and weapons and equipment were related to life and death. This was a public opinion. Because of this, the key reason why many people did not want to be laid off was that they could not afford to lose face. They did not expect Wang Haiyang to solve it so easily.
"It's solved." Wang Haiyang looked very happy. "At first, I was worried that these people would express their opinions by letting the workers block the government's gate, like in Wuhan a few years ago. But now the whole situation has changed. After the development of North America, the employment opportunities have skyrocketed. The production of those enterprises is not good, and the workers' income is low. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the workers have changed jobs. Who would be willing to work for the factory cadres? "
Wang Haiyang was naturally happy to be able to solve the seemingly difficult problem so easily. But when Shen Xin heard this, he actually felt a burst of melancholy. Originally, state-owned enterprises were places that everyone was very eager to go to, and it was not easy to enter state-owned enterprises. Now the world had changed, and the attraction of incompetent state-owned enterprises had actually declined to the point where they could not even cause trouble. The pragmatism of the people was really ruthless.
Wang Haiyang continued to say in a relaxed manner, "Chairman Shen, now let's see if we will be so sad this time. And the problem of state-owned enterprises is so easy to solve, we can continue to move forward and raise the standards. What should be merged will be merged, and what should be eliminated will be eliminated. Moreover, the next five-year plan will be formulated by you. Chairman Shen, do you have any key points? "
"Key points?" Shen Xin had actually begun to consider this issue a long time ago, but he found that he had only been the chairman for a short time, and he could not immediately grasp the key points. So after thinking about it, he thought of a direction. "If I were to formulate it, at least in education, in addition to completely eliminating illiteracy, we should also normalize the 11-year compulsory education. Don't use the sports-style model to promote education. "
"Why?" Wang Haiyang did not expect Shen Xin's first direction to be education. As the political commissar of the North American Military Region during the war, everyone generally thought that Shen Xin's top priority and expertise was the military field.
Shen Xin replied, "Because the minimum age for employment is now stipulated by the law to be 16 years old. Everyone is usually five or six years old when they go to school. After the 11-year compulsory education is over, the children will also reach the age of employment. "
Wang Haiyang was speechless for a moment. Shen Xin's reason was based on the law, which was rare in previous policy-making. The law was usually something that people would really bring out when they were almost at the end of the argument. Usually, individual will was above the law. This idea of formulating a system according to the law gave Wang Haiyang a sense of novelty.
With this sense of novelty, Wang Haiyang reminded, "The five-year plan is not only about education, but also industry, agriculture, national defense, and foreign affairs. These are all part of the five-year plan. "
Shen Xin was a little shaken by Wang Haiyang's words. He replied calmly, "There is no need to rush these things. The five-year plan is only the direction of development in the next five years. There is no need to forcibly formulate most of it. It's like fighting a war. No one knows what the result will be when you fight the enemy for the first time. Because the changes in the territory are too great, we probably don't believe many of our predictions. "
Seeing that Shen Xin's words were flawless, and there was no problem with his train of thought, Wang Haiyang could only choose to stop talking about it.
The meeting was not presided over by the Military Governor Vaize. Everyone was not used to it, but the meeting still had to be held. It was not until the party meeting was held that Vézé attended the meeting as the party chairman. At this time, many comrades had a real understanding of the political level of the Min dynasty. Politics was divided into 'governance' and 'governance'. Although the meaning of the term in ancient times was different from that of today, it was the party that decided policy, and governance was completed by the civil service system. As long as the Restoration Party did not fall, the person who decided everything was the party chairman.
When Vézé picked up the microphone, all the comrades quieted down. In this silence, Vézé said calmly, "Comrades, I am now the chairman of the party, not the president of the country, so I want to talk about the construction of the party. A party is an organization with the same political ideas, and it is an organization that needs iron discipline. Everyone has worked for so long, I think everyone is very clear that this kind of similar ideas, this kind of iron discipline, can not be achieved by force. Only through the explanation, discussion and propaganda of political ideas can our comrades in the Restoration Party understand these ideas. Before the destruction of the United States, we actually did not have the time and energy to solve this problem. Because at that time, what we pursued was security. Our China did not have a secure environment at that time. Now it is different. We have gained security. On this basis, as the chairman of the party, the focus of my work is to achieve as much political consensus as possible within the party. "
In 1893, few people really understood what Vézé meant by this. People who had entered the new era did not know where they were. It took time for the new era to be recognized, understood, and reflected by people.
Many people even thought of Vézé's words from the perspective that Vézé wanted to listen to the government from behind the curtain. Even if they knew the name and authority of the chairman, even if they knew that the Min dynasty was actually a non-monarchy. But many people still couldn't help but make a comparison and connection between the supreme power and the monarchy. Now that Shen Xin was the chairman, where would Vézé be? Probably only the position of the retired emperor could correspond to it.
