Zi Yang's decision to increase the issuance of currency to offset the cost of building a large fleet caused an uproar in the Central Committee. There were opponents, and this deviation from the budget model aroused opposition from many people.
"There is a problem with your way of thinking, and that is the issue of the collateral for the issuance of currency. If it is a capitalist country, the issuance of currency is either collateralized by state taxes or by various debts. In the final analysis, this is a model where a country recognizes private ownership of the means of production. In the Min dynasty, what is used as collateral? Apart from productivity, how many assets do we have that are valuable? "Zi Yang spoke frankly to the opponents at the Central Committee.
It had to be said that no one dared to directly refute this theoretical content. But judging from the expressions of the comrades below the stage, they were not really convinced.
Completely ignoring the strange gazes below, Zi Yang continued to speak loudly, "The Min dynasty uses productivity as collateral for currency. With the development of productivity, the amount of currency input will increase every year. We have previously discussed the issue of what kind of currency to pay for production, and everyone has argued endlessly. From the perspective of the currency multiplier theory, ship-building is a high-tech industry that pulls heavy industrial and service industries. I think there is no reason to question the ship-building and point out that it has no effect. It is a good decision to expand currency expenditure by ship-building. "
Most of the opponents had little understanding of Zi Yang's theory, and those who could completely understand couldn't make a judgment for a while. At this moment, someone began to applaud below the stage. According to the Military Governor Of Vaize's habit, when the Military Governor Of Vaize led everyone from one victory to another, he would give a set of theoretical explanations. After the Commander-in-Chief finished speaking, the comrades below, regardless of whether they understood or not, immediately applauded. The matter ended, and they moved on to the next topic.
On the surface, Zi Yang had completed all the steps of the process, and a group of people began to applaud. Long-term habits made those Central Committee members who did not support him feel like they had given up resisting. Their inner resistance and dissatisfaction with reality suddenly turned into a kind of dissatisfaction with the Military Governor Of Vaize. In the past few years, the Military Governor Of Vaize had spent most of his time running around, and it was the same this time. After the Commander-in-Chief confirmed the naval shipbuilding plan, he went to North America to inspect. He left the work to the Central Committee. If the commander-in-chief was here, everyone wouldn't have to work so hard. As long as the commander-in-chief made a decision, everyone would accept the result.
There is no party outside the Party, the thinking of a monarch; there is no faction within the Party, the thinking of a thousand strange things. This was what the Military Governor Of Vaize had said. After the Central Committee meeting ended, a group of people led by Shen Xin immediately gathered. Everyone first informed their families that they would not be going back for dinner, and then ordered some food to be sent to the conference room. As soon as the door of the conference room was closed and the guards were guarding the door, Shen Xin shouted, "Hey! Hey! I think Ziyang's words are wrong, but can anyone come up with a reason to object from a theoretical standpoint? "
In the Min dynasty, there were people who used theory to explain problems, but it was usually the Military Governor Vaize who used theory to explain economic problems. Shen Xin's words made everyone at the meeting look at each other in dismay. The Restoration Party took the socialist route and ran for the ideals of freedom. However, this knowledge was more reflected in the examination, and real theoretical debates were a very rare thing.
Seeing that no one spoke, Shen Xin's frown deepened. Among the eight standing committee members, three opposed and five supported. Based purely on the theory of the minority obeying the majority, it was useless even if the Military Governor Of Vaize objected. However, this situation was too strange. The Military Governor Of Vaize spoke of democracy and unity.
At this time, the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee asked, "How many times did we really argue about theory under the commander-in-chief?"
This question made the group of comrades begin to recall carefully. "There was a debate about insisting on state ownership of land."
"Well … resolutely cracking down on the feudal superstitions, and the members of the Restoration Party were not allowed to have idealistic religious beliefs …"
"Yes … eradicating religions. As for religions and religious personnel above the country's laws, the target was not to be completely eradicated at that time. Comrades have concerns …"
There were not many debates that left a deep impression on the Military Governor Of Vaize over the past few decades. This group of standing committee members and Central Committee members had reached the level and age where they could distinguish between systems and theories. In the end, they could only recall a few of them.
At the thought of Zi Yang using theoretical tools to realize his wishes, Shen Xin was very unhappy. It was just that the comrades gathered on his side understood politics, human nature, materialism, and even many problems encountered in practical implementation. However, they did not study pure economic theory. Then everyone looked at Shen Xin in unison. Without waiting for his comrades to speak, Shen Xin said, "I'll send a telegram to Wang Mingshan right away and ask him to come back immediately."
When Wang Mingshan received the telegram, he was in Florence, Italy. Previously, he had come as a powerful figure of the Min dynasty, so this time, he experienced the situation of people leaving and the tea cooling. Fortunately, Wang Mingshan was not pretentious at all. Before this trip, he had already studied the problems he would face according to the latest version of the psychological guidance manual provided by the Organization Department of the Min dynasty. After experiencing all kinds of different treatment, Wang Mingshan wrote on the inside page of the booklet, "All the hustle and bustle in the world comes for benefits, and all the hustle and bustle in the world goes for benefits."
In the big villa of Italian Marquess Grace, the Marquess threw Wang Mingshan a glance. Wang Mingshan sighed and advised, "Grace, it's meaningless to be angry. Even if you were a duke or a prince, you wouldn't be able to make decisions at the national level, let alone a marquess like you. "
After hearing this, Italian Marquess Grace was not convinced. She turned her head and asked in a very unfriendly tone, "Even if I am an ordinary Italian citizen, I have the right to love my motherland. Italy actually lost to Ethiopia, and you dare to tell me that the Min dynasty did not work hard behind it? "
Such words full of patriotism made Wang Mingshan sigh slightly. He had been the secretary of the Party Committee for a long time, and promoting patriotism was one of the important jobs of the secretary of the Party Committee. Chinese people had Chinese patriotism, so Wang Mingshan agreed that the Min dynasty supported Ethiopia and killed tens of thousands of Italian invaders. Italian people had Italian patriotism. Grace was angry for the Italian invaders who were killed and upset for Italy's failure to expand abroad. Since Wang Mingshan firmly believed that patriotism was a correct idea, an idea worthy of guidance and encouragement, Wang Mingshan also knew that there was no reason to think that Italian patriotism was an evil idea. And what was the difference between the Min dynasty's annexation of North America a few years ago and Italy's invasion of Ethiopia now? For Wang Mingshan, this difference was that Wang Mingshan firmly supported the Min dynasty's annexation of North America, while firmly opposed Italy's entry into the Min dynasty's sphere of influence.
Just when he was at a loss, the servant brought a telegram. He opened it and saw a short sentence on it, "Return to Beijing immediately." It was signed by Shen Xin. Wang Mingshan wanted to persuade Grace not to be so childish, but he was more happy in his heart. Finally, he could persuade himself not to withdraw into such a complicated emotional life. Patriotism had no price.
Leaving Italy with a very legitimate reason, Wang Mingshan first went back to Cyprus. Wang Mingshan's son had already arrived in Cyprus to wait for Wang Mingshan according to the telegram. As soon as he saw Wang Mingshan, he asked, "Father, it's been difficult to do business in Italy recently. Our tanker is also in place, but the matter with Austria has not been settled yet. "
Wang Mingshan simply said, "Italian business is not easy to do, so you can do business in Turkey. Don't be afraid of the tanker. You can go to the oil refinery in Madagascar. They will talk to you. Also, Sinhala (Sri Lanka) also needs a stable oil transport fleet. You can also send someone to contact them. "
"Father, if you can give me a tiao …" Wang Mingshan's son said hesitantly.
"Back then, when we followed Military Governor Wei to expand the territory, who gave us tiao?" Wang Mingshan sat on the sofa and asked.
"You …, you were stronger than us at that time!" Wang Mingshan's son replied with some hesitation.
"In terms of education and knowledge, I can't compare to you since I was young. I only knew that the Earth revolves around the sun when I was a teenager. You knew this when you were three. You saw electric lights after you were born and used a phone when you were young. I might not have used a phone a few days earlier than you. You graduated from university and learned so much, how could you be worse than me at the same age? "Wang Mingshan continued to ask.
Wang Mingshan's son scratched his head and replied after a while, "The competitors in your era are worse than us now."
Lightly patting the armrest of the sofa, Wang Mingshan nodded and praised, "That's right."
"My advantage now is you, my father. I have no choice but to work hard." Wang Mingshan's son continued to speak.
Wang Mingshan asked his son to sit down and said slowly, "You are my son. I know what you are capable of. No matter how bad you are, you won't reach this stage. Your problem now is that you don't have the right attitude. Military Governor Wei Ze said to serve the working people wholeheartedly. You don't have to kneel. You just have to learn to listen to other people's requests and learn to listen to whether they have any needs for the services you provide. You are my son, so you can't have the stupid idea of others kneeling to you. "
The various thoughts in his heart turned into various expressions on his face. After struggling for a while, Wang Mingshan's son said, "But … but I'm afraid people will reject me. I'm afraid people will bully me."
