Chapter 194: The Autonomous and Mutual Aid System of Townships and Communities (3)(1/2)
Zhang Yue repeated what he and Liu Jin said to everyone.
After listening to it, everyone had different expressions.
All the students such as Gong Yu were happy and encouraged, their faces were flushed, and they were deeply proud of their ability to participate in such a major event.
This is the village system!
The inner dream of every Confucian scholar and the pursuit of every scholar-official scholar!
Almost instantly, they were like injecting chicken blood and devoted themselves to thinking and conception.
But Chen Wannian's expression was interesting.
After listening to what Zhang Yue said, he muttered in his heart: "Isn't this the improved version of the village community under the Shangjun system?"
As an old official, Chen Wannian recognized at a glance that many of the ideas Zhang Yue put forward were actually translated into the Chinese translation of the Qin Dynasty Township Society.
At most some improvements and fine-tuning were made.
For example, the system that is about to discuss matters every year in April, July, August, October, and the first month is a replica of Qin's "The Law of the Ritual Yuan. The Law of the April Law".
However, in the Qin Dynasty version, there was no regular setting, only the official setting.
Moreover, it is mandatory and punitive.
In the Qin version, the township officials who did not do well would be punished from "fighting ten" to "fighting fifty", and in severe cases they would be exiled.
In this version proposed by Zhang Shizhong, the punishment was abolished and the political achievements requirements for the "Zhengwang" were reduced.
Strengthen the autonomy of "normal bullets".
but……
What does this matter have to do with me?
Chen Wannian shrugged, pursed his lips, looked at his nose, and his nose, sat quietly without saying a word.
He would not be so stupid that he jumped out at this time, saying that Zhang Yue’s method was Qin Fa.
On the contrary, he is now thinking about how to make his own contribution in this matter.
Then use this contribution to get promoted and make money.
Beside Chen Wannian, Hu Jianze was so excited that he even shook his hands.
"This is a modern improved version of Shangjun's system!" A voice shouted in Hu Jian's heart.
As a Legal scholar, Hu Jian knew more than Chen Wannian.
He not only saw the shadow of the Shangjun system, but also the... The military meritorious lord's name and land and house system may use this village system to revive the soul and return to the world.
Hu Jian knew very well how the system of military meritorious lords’ names and land and houses collapsed.
Although there are reasons why the Han emperors of all dynasties deliberately did it.
But more importantly, the social environment and system that the military meritorious lord named land and house system itself relies on, no longer exists.
The state no longer controls a large amount of allocable land and resources, and the land grant system has been in name only.
It is almost impossible to resurrect the system of the title of the land and house of the military masters in the present environment!
However, Shizhong Zhang proposed a new path.
In a private land society, a new way out for the system of military meritorious lords named land and houses.
Although, now it seems that this system is unlikely to evolve into a purely violent system like Shangjun.
But... it's human-made, right?
Moreover, even if not, the system itself is conducive to the survival of Legalists and Legalists' thoughts.
After the Han Dynasty was in full swing for a hundred years, Confucianism was evolving, Huang-Lao was declining, and Legalism was also adapting to the changes of the times.
The most prominent and obvious feature is that most of the Legal politicians and scholars have been closely integrated with the military aristocratic group.
This is the change made by the Legalists to adapt after Confucian scholars took over administrative power.
The advantage of doing this is that no matter how Confucianism makes trouble, it will do it.
As long as the country remains martial and the military power remains strong, the Legalists will not perish or decline.
Even, you can use the power of military generals to compete with Confucian scholars.
When necessary, kick the Confucian scholar away and stand at the front desk by himself.
Of course, that is a last resort and an extreme choice.
Because after the accident in the Qin Dynasty and since the rise of the Han Dynasty, the world has been criticizing and criticizing Legalists.
At present, public opinion and social environment no longer allow the Legalists to become rulers.
Even the Legalists themselves felt that they were not suitable for them.
So, Hu Jian started to think almost immediately with all his brain cells and began to think very actively.
Just as Hu Jian was thinking, Sang Jun suddenly stood up, bowed to Liu Jin and Zhang Yuegong, and then asked: "How to ask Shizhong, what should I do if the salary of Zhu Zhengtan of the township community, the funds of the township community and the costs of organizing the people? Where can I get it?"
This question is critical.
Even Zhang Yue had not had time to think of this level.
After Sang Jun reminded him, Zhang Yue came to this point.
Any organization needs funds, expenditures, and the favor of the great master Manny.
If there is not enough funding, no matter how good the system is, it will be a slack. On the contrary, as long as there is enough funding, no matter how useless the bureaucracy is, it can still do a lot of things.
"What Mr. Sang said is quite reasonable..." Zhang Yue bowed and said, "You all think about how to spend the salary and funds of the village's regular squad? Where to spend it?"
The establishment of village clubs is for mutual assistance, to help farmers get rid of oppression and bullying by clerks, and to organize them to produce and live, promote and promote new technologies.
Not the other way around.
Of course, this source of funds is a difficult problem.
Is the state allocated? Impossible!
If so, wouldn’t this so-called local autonomy become a joke?
Even the funds are allocated by the superiors. Don’t think about having any right to speak. When others get stuck, they will kneel down!
What's even more terrifying is that if you are not careful, you may fall into the trap of redundant officials.
One to six elders were elected in a pavilion as representatives, and they formed a village and community autonomous organization on behalf of them.
Even if each person is in charge, he will only be paid according to the treatment of the lowest-level fighting food officer.
One person costs at least one thousand yuan a year.
There are six to twelve pavilions in a town, and thirty to sixty are on the right track.
The salary alone is tens of thousands of yuan per year.
In addition to the daily expenses of village activities, the expenses and other expenses of organizing people's production will be classified at least 200,000 yuan a year.
The normal land tax and straw quota income in a village may be higher than this number.
If it is just a small-scale operation, it is not realistic to popularize it!
As for self-financing?
That would be even worse!
Self-financing is equivalent to giving up the power of the village to the landlords and powerful people.
The same is true for whoever gives the money will be the boss.
The township organization raises funds on its own, so it naturally goes to find landlords and powerful people.
The landlords and powerful people gave money, but the village members dared not do what they wanted?
As for placing it to the people, it was an extremely bad decision.
The people are already under heavy burdens. If you play like this, wouldn’t it be a fuel to the fire?
Everyone sitting there were elites, top literati and officials.
Of course, you can think of these three levels. Even if someone doesn’t think of it, others will remind him.
So, for a moment, the whole room fell into silence.
It was Zhang Yue who broke the silence.
After thinking for a long time, he said, "You guys, I have an immature idea, please listen..."
"I plan to do this..."
"Allocate part of the public land to the township community as the rural property... the income from the township industry is the salary of the township community..."
"Then, a batch of livestock will be allocated to the township community to make it a livestock product in the township community, and the people will be encouraged to rent it, and the money and goods they have obtained will be funded for the activities of the township community..."
"The government will have to bear part of the village and community funds..."
"And the township community itself is allowed to raise some of it..."
To be continued...
