421. Down-to-earth, investigation and analysis(1/2)
Land is the basis of everything.
After the vast transformation of equal land, farmers have the most profound experience of whether the land is better than the private sector or the public sector.
It’s just that their expectations are different and selfish, so many people are unwilling to look at the gap directly.
certainly.
There is still a comparison. If there is no horizontal comparison and can only compare the previous days vertically, then there is no need for any pain, and I just feel that the prosperity and health are.
As for the rumors about the situation in the north? Rumors! Absolute rumors!
Therefore, people always deceive themselves. After all, if all suffering is unforgettable, life will be too difficult. Suffering is never worthy of praise, and forgetting is just helpless escape.
When there is nowhere to escape, you either wake up or collapse, that's it.
Zhang Zhixiang left Orange Island and did not go back to the Yangtze River by water, but walked around Changsha Prefecture, because the two intertwined land systems in Huguang are the most powerful and are the most valuable for reference.
Changsha, Changde, Yuezhou.
Three months later.
After walking around Dongting Lake for a long time, Zhang Zhixiang returned to Orange Island again. Fu Youyu's reconstruction of the resort island had begun to show results. This time, Zhang Zhixiang was preparing to live for a while.
He wants to complete a work - a Huguang Rural Survey Report.
Because there are a large number of former Wang family manors around Dongting Lake, Zhang Zhixiang successfully obtained the most realistic records and data from the Dongting Lake area.
He also witnessed the changes in the Huguang area since Xu Jie led the public ownership reform.
During the investigation, Wang Jiangque left and went to Nanjing to observe a sentence. Xu Dong, who had made friends with Xu Jie and helped Xu Jie to activist and donated land, was beheaded.
On the first day of April, Xu Jie officially launched an armed change.
With premeditated plans, the regiment almost destroyed the Nanjing Parliament, and several major merchants were arrested. As hundreds of heads fell on the Nanjing court, the curtain of the great era was completely opened.
From Nanjing to the remote rural areas of Sichuan and Guizhou Mountain, the people at the bottom were mobilized.
They started violent changes with an over-venting attitude.
The old dominators, whose heads were cut off, the blood turned red on the earth, nourishing the dry and barren soil, and the new vitality began to grow wildly.
They have no experience and may have made many jokes.
But there is no doubt that they are trying to control their own destiny, although...their thoughts have not changed.
"Xu Jie's biggest problem is that he lacks a pioneer. In the past training of Donglin Academy, democracy and freedom were the premise. Because the students' components were not clarified, the education of Donglin Academy was only a superficial skill."
"Their reform is nothing more than an old-style reform under the banner of new things."
"If you want to say that there is any difference with Wang Anshi's reform, it is probably because Xu Jie knew the power of the lower class and used this power well, so he succeeded."
"Although it seems that the two reforms are very different."
"Wang Anshi's reform was to 'financial management' and 'reorganize the army', so he had to change the financial problems of the court, so he needed to improve productivity. Among them, grain output was the most critical, and policies such as the Qingshou Law were implemented, intending to ensure the smooth progress of farmers' production without changing the ownership of land and tax exploitation..."
"And Xu Jie's open reform completed the transformation of the entire society under the premise of equalizing the fields, determined the existence of exploitation, overturned the exploiting class, greatly liberated productivity, and allowed the people to turn over and become masters."
"It can be said that not only one of the two reforms won and the other lost, the idea was very different."
"It cannot be divided into two parts at all."
"But in fact? Xu Jie did urgently come up with a systematic theory, giving them a theory that can guide their thoughts and actions, but there are huge problems in implementation."
"The most important problem is those Xu Jie's students who carried out the change."
"The slogans they shouted were not the same as their cognition. They just followed Xu Jie to do it, but did not really understand what this change requires and what its meaning is. Are they sincerely supported because of this greatness?"
"They are not. All they see is that the old system has been overturned, and they, as Xu Jie's direct descendants, will take the new stage..."
"so."
"This is actually an old-style reform with a new slogan, or an alternative dynasty, but it has not truly completed the transformation and progress of civilization..."
Zhang Zhixiang wrote this investigation report as if it was carved on a stone.
During the investigation and visit.
He has encountered many examples. Xu Jie's own team has led to various strange phenomena at the bottom. The most common one is that in a village, everyone is keen on fighting. Everyone wants to grab the name and the righteous, and then use various secret tricks and damage tricks. Then no one presided over the persuasion, and gradually abandoned farming. Then, when it comes to whom the family has a lot of grain harvest, he says he is a landlord...
In this way, the atmosphere will be broken.
Xu Jie considered the issue of trends, so he kept sending "inspectors" to various places to correct the customs, but just like when Wang Anshi was reforming, Wang Anshi also liked to send the censors to tour the various places to correct the customs and rectify the law.
But, useless.
Or in other words, treating the symptoms but not the root cause, everyone took it seriously at the beginning, but later the problem was not really solved. Two or three times, no one looked forward to it.
When getting used to it.
People's enthusiasm for Xu Jie will also fade, and what is exposed to the vast rural areas is confusion, while the new order is chaotic and the old order begins to be restored.
Family patriarchy began to reappear on the stage.
Many things have happened, many things have signs and are about to happen.
No matter what, Zhang Zhixiang did not think that Xu Jie's reform was successful.
Although the countryside is chaotic, the city is doing well, and almost everyone praises Xu Jie, and even thinks that Xu Jie is the most outstanding saint ever.
They firmly believe that following Xu Jie's path, everyone will have a bright future.
As for the chaos and hardships facing rural areas?
The difficulties are temporary, but there is nothing wrong with the "technical level". Once the government is rectified, everyone's knowledge and cultural level will be improved, and they will be solved.
Farmers are poor?
It doesn’t matter, it’s because of insufficient productivity. When productivity is developed, everyone will become rich.
Zhang Zhixiang writes stop and stop.
No matter what, after three months, the villages where the land is private are developed well, and the villages where the land is private are different. After all, a focus is on internal consumption groups, how can they compare to groups where others work together.
Books are in the light at night.
Wang Jiangque sent the dumplings over, and she sorted out many of the information by herself, so she understood it very well, pulled the chair and sat down, saying, "Xu Jie's biggest problem is that this reform is just a sign of its own."
“He did not make actual changes in the minds of the people.”
"He just forced the people to change their lifestyles. At the same time, he also emphasized dedication and patience, advocated hard work, and allowed capital to increase density to the greatest extent, so their industrialization process has far exceeded ours."
"Factory can be said to be blooming everywhere and various projects are launched."
“Essentially.”
"This is a carnival of industrial underwear in the skin of change."
Zhang Zhixiang nodded and said, "Xu Jie doesn't mind that there is a price, and some people become the price but don't know that in front of the general public, the productivity reforms brought by industry are earth-shaking."
"They were amazed at this power, and then they were fascinated."
"That's all Xu Jie wants. He knows the problem, so he uses his influence to suppress it and maintain a certain fragile balance. As long as the industry develops enough, the rest is enough."
"Xu Jie is not afraid of deterioration, so he can let go and embellish the peace."
"Even after several years, people's memories will be beautified, and Xu Jie will be given various halos, which are extremely sacred."
It's not just whitewashing the peace.
Xu Jie would expand democracy and fairness, and then accuse and interfere with the court's practices. They would even organize the pursuit and go to the northern boundary to "punish evil and promote good."
Regarding this.
Wang Jiangque sighed: "In the past, the gentry ran to the south, but now they are run to the north."
"In addition to the dramatic, it is also a direct expression of the differences between the two sides. Xu Jie killed all the people indiscriminately and drove them away. All he could use were those real poor scholars, those scholars who were not affected by the equalization of fields and reforms."
"Although they are not small in number, they are still a little vague in terms of talent."
"Although the talent of a county is enough to govern the country, it is the model of the past. The imperial power of the past dynasties could not be used in the countryside, and the countryside was basically self-governed by gentry, so there were not many talents."
"After the law is reformed, the government's responsibilities have been infinitely expanded, and it is no longer the original talent of a county, and can meet the needs."
"But the countryside is a vast world and requires great achievements."
"Almost every village needs talents who can make ideas, and under the planning and development, each township and county must have a longer-term vision and morality that can convince the public."
"However."
"Not to mention the more than a thousand counties in the Ming Dynasty, just talk about the vast rural areas, and there are two or three million villages in the Ming Dynasty."
"Xu Jie has no choice but to have enough talents to manage such a vast territory and maintain the results of the reform under the internal friction of the basic contradictions."
It was not only the gentry but also the officials from the south.
He could not control the fire lit by Xu Jie. While he declared war on the gentry, basically all the officials in Jiangnan began to flee, and no one was willing to stay and wait for death.
Many of these people used to be corrupt, abused and oppressed the people, and committed many crimes.
These people are not very powerful people.
However, the instantaneous vacuum is the main reason for the problem. In almost an instant, the entire Jiangnan government system collapsed. Xu Jie needed to complete a rebuild, which can be said to be time-consuming and labor-consuming.
It's not a matter of talent, but a matter of experience.
To be continued...
