From the perspective of agricultural production efficiency and industrialization, few people have considered it like this before, and there can be said that there is nothing at all. But the questions raised by An Xiangui and Lu Hong are not unreasonable. To improve the efficiency of agricultural production, intensive farm-style management is indeed a direction of development, and in the old time and space, China has already developed in this direction; and industrialization does require a large number of industrial workers. In this era, China has not yet formed an independent working class, so it needs industrial workers, which are only transformed by farmers.

Lu Hong said again: "All of you have learned the land enclosure movement in Europe when you were in school. Simply put, the land enclosure movement is to drive farmers away from the land, concentrate the scattered land in the hands of farmers, carry out intensive farm-style operations, and improve agricultural production efficiency. On the other hand, after farmers lose their land, they can only work in factories run by capitalists, and thus become industrial workers. This promotes the development of capitalist economy and industry. When industrial exhibitions, products are enriched, production and furniture are improved, and in turn, they can cooperate. The development of intensive farming and farm-style management has formed a virtuous cycle. Of course, it is impossible for us to engage in a circular movement now, but whether to allocate land to farmers is indeed questionable. On the other hand, if we concentrate the land confiscated landlords to carry out intensive farm-style management, and through some administrative means, we will transform landless farmers into industrial workers, will we enter a virtuous cycle? Although farmers have no land, but have work, they will have a stable source of income, which will also support us."

Zhang Zichen said: "But in the old time and space, weren't we developed industry and agriculture together? We didn't engage in intensive farm-style management, and did we also realize industrialization?"

Lu Hong obviously considered this and immediately said: "The experience of the old time and space can only be used as a reference and cannot be copied and copied, because the situations in these two eras are different. In the old time and space, we founded the country in 50 years. Although China has always been in a state of unstable status in the past 50 years, some local time periods have still obtained some stable development time, including the Golden Decade of the Beiyang Government and the Golden Decade of the National Government. Although these two golden decades are not as great as those of the Republic of China fans and have not made China truly prosperous and strong, it is not completely meaningless. At least through these two golden decades, China's national industry has indeed been developed to a certain extent and an independent working class has been formed."

"Although the number of working class was still very low in the national population ratio after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the absolute number was still a very considerable number because China's total population was large. In the old time and space, the basis for the completion of the initial industrialization development of the New China, there was no need to transform industrial workers from farmers. Even if industrialization cannot absorb the agricultural population, then intensive farm-style management in rural areas would not be possible. This will cause a large number of farmers to be unemployed and cause huge social turmoil. This is the era background of land policies in the old time and space, and this era has not formed an independent working class. This is the biggest difference in the era. Therefore, I think our development path should be changed."

Although the questions raised by An Xiangui and Lu Hong are indeed quite reasonable, Li Songchen and Zeng Dong have had a profound study of the agricultural situation in this era, so the two thought for a while and exchanged a few simple sentences, and then the loopholes in the questions raised by An Xiangui and Lu Hong were revealed. Zeng Dong said first: "In fact, similar to intensive farm-style management has always existed in ancient China. Although most of the landlords in ancient China relied on renting land for income, some of the management-style landlords hired workers and managed farming themselves. Although this is not the mainstream, it is not an isolated case. Moreover, we also opened two farms in Tianjin and Qingdao, which are the intensive farm-style management."

"However, although intensive farm-style management represents the direction of agricultural development, in order to truly improve agricultural production efficiency, it is still based on agricultural mechanization and popularization of fertilizers. In the current productivity and agricultural technical level, intensive farm-style management can improve agricultural production efficiency, but the improvement is limited, and farmers' risk resistance has not increased much. In addition, intensive farm-style management requires a large amount of capital investment in the early stage, and the operators must have strong organizational and management capabilities. These are not

What farmers in this era can do is, on the contrary, only landlords can do it, which is contrary to our original intention. Therefore, we believe that under the current conditions, it is not advisable to promote intensive farm-style management, but should still be mainly based on the family small peasant economy. However, the government can lead the opening of a small number of farms. On the one hand, it is to accumulate experience and on the other hand, it is to have a demonstration effect. In addition, for a few open-minded landlords, they can also be open to one side. After the subjective and objective conditions are ripe, they should gradually promote intensive farm-style management in the village as a unit."

After hearing this, An Xiangui and Lu Hong were silent for a while. Lu Hong said: "So how to solve the industrial employment gap? At most one month, German machinery and equipment will arrive in Qingdao. At that time, there was at least 10,000 employees in Qingdao. Next year, with the complete production of various factories, even the scale will be expanded and the opening of new factories, the employment gap will widen to attract 30,000 to 50,000 people. This problem must be solved."

Li Songchen smiled and said, "This is not inconsistent with the distribution of land in rural areas. According to our understanding, farmers in this era are not opposed to work. After the autumn harvest every year, before the New Year, a large number of farmers will go to the city to do odd jobs to supplement their household income. Some merchants will also go to the countryside to recruit short-term workers at this time. Therefore, we can fully attract farmers to work through policy guidance. For example, farmers who are allowed to retain rural household registration and land for a certain period of time. In this era, the income of workers is much higher than farming, and farmers all hope to settle down in the city and become urban people. The mentality of the old time and space is the same. When they have been workers for several years and broadened their horizons, most people will choose to give up rural household registration and land and completely transform into industrial workers. Even if someone returns to the countryside, they can attract more farmers to enter the city and become industrial workers through their own experiences."

Qin Zheng heard this and smiled and said, "Isn't this just a migrant worker exhibition?"

Li Songchen said: "It's almost the same. After all, industrialization is not achieved overnight, but a gradual development process. Therefore, converting farmers into industrial workers is also a gradual progress process. If there is really a shortage of people, we can still recruit people from other provinces. Henan and Hebei have a large number of poor people, which can meet our current industrial development needs. However, suddenly driving a large number of farmers out of the land is inadequate to our current industrial scale. It is easy to cause social unrest. Because of the situation where the Qing court and imperialism are watching, a slight mistake will shake our ruling foundation. From a political perspective, we now need to obtain the support of the vast majority of farmers as soon as possible, so dividing the land is the fastest and most effective method."

At this time, Xia Bohai said: "I actually have a bit of this point just now. We are discussing whether it is public or private land. The discussion just now is the land management model. This is a deeper issue. Of course, the appropriate discussion will be more profound, which will also help us make the final decision. But we have to stop here. Now the topic still needs to return to our original topic."

Lu Hong said: "Okay, as long as it can solve the problem of workers' gap, I don't oppose the distribution of land."

Xia Bohai nodded and said, "So do other people have any words?" After a while, seeing that no one had any more requests, Xia Bohai said, "Okay, then we will start voting."

The final voting result was to pass the resolution to implement public ownership of land with 14 votes in favor, 6 votes against, and 3 abstentions. Although the result of the voting was not as one-sided as the previous resolution, the advantage was quite obvious.

In fact, the dispute over the land system mainly exists among some younger middle- and lower-level time travelers within the Time Travel Group, but they have no influence on the Executive Committee. Most of the members of the Executive Committee are middle-aged people, and a considerable number of them are state cadres in the old time and space. Their ideas and concepts are pragmatic, and there are no literary and artistic youth who advocate pastoral music, nor are they so-called democratic figures who pursue universal values. Moreover, after being leaders for nearly half a year in this era, they will measure the gains and losses from the perspective of real interests. If you consider the interests of the Time Travel Group, you will naturally implement public ownership of land and divide the land into households, because this will not only gain a large number of support and support from farmers in a short period of time, but also increase the fiscal revenue of the Time Travel Group and strengthen the ruling foundation of the Time Travel Group. This account can naturally be calculated.

Xia Bohai said: "Okay, the voting results have been determined, so the next step is to formulate a common land system charter. This task will be handed over to the Ministry of Agriculture to complete. I hope you can come up with a detailed outline as soon as possible."

Zeng Dongdao: "Yes, we will complete it as soon as possible."
