Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

"However, my majesty, I still don't understand," Zhao Bingjun said worriedly, "Since it is a new agricultural economic policy, and you advocate it, why don't you propose it at a cabinet meeting and issue a decree to implement it instead of To go this way... this way..."

"Is it such an evil path?" Guan Xuqing smiled meaningfully, "Zhi An, you still don't understand politics, you don't know what reform is, and what reform is, and you don't even know that there is a relationship between the two. What a big difference. Of course, it is impossible for you to know how much resistance I will encounter if I want to implement an economic policy aimed at improvement in the country, and how much resistance I will encounter if I want to implement an economic policy aimed at reform. How much resistance is there. Can India's 2000-year-old agricultural policy be easily changed?"

"Your Majesty! What do you mean..." Zhao Bingjun finally understood what the emperor said about the new agricultural economic policy, but after he understood it, he wished that he didn't understand anything.

"You don't need to understand anything now, you just need to finish what I have told you." Guan Xuqing shook his head, and then continued, "What I need you to do now is to let your brother-in-law go immediately Activities, remember, activities must be carried out in the name of individuals. I want him to become the person in charge of the collective farm he is in within two months. As for what needs to be done after that, I will Will give him a new will. Remember, you must let him understand that what I need is for her to do this in her own name. During this process, if there are any reports of corruption and the like, you will They can be intercepted privately. All in all, I have no knowledge of what happened there!"

It is undeniable that Guan Xuqing is quite mature in politics now. The young man who was ignorant and somewhat naive at the time has grown into a political veteran who is good at both sides and using people as guns.This time, the new agricultural economic policy he wants to implement is actually the rural land contract responsibility system. He wants to abolish the large collective farm system that was practiced in India, and transform the old land policy into individual contracting by individual farmers. Family-based semi-privatization of land policy.

Obviously, under the original collective farm system, no matter how high-quality the members of the farm were, their enthusiasm for labor would be greatly affected under the economic system where all the members were in the same pot, and they worked more or less.Now, the Sino-US war has just ended, and because a large amount of light and strong labor force has been consumed in the war, if the empire wants to restore agricultural production as soon as possible at this time and improve the rural economy, then the only way to rely on it is to work in the largest The production enthusiasm of farmers has been improved to the maximum extent.Then again, how can we maximize the enthusiasm of farmers for production?This point may be complicated for others, but for Guan Xuqing who came from China in the 21st century, it is not so complicated. China's success is already the best example.

But one thing is very important. The system of big landlords and small serfs that has been practiced in India for thousands of years is deeply rooted. It is difficult to change it overnight. As India becomes a member of the Chinese Federation, the original landlord class has been greatly weakened. This brings opportunities to the land contract responsibility system.However, Indian officials and local people will definitely find it difficult to accept this new thing immediately. Guan Xuqing believes that if he directly puts forward his proposition in a cabinet meeting, he will definitely receive stronger resistance from the Indian side, precisely because he understands this. , That's why we try our best to avoid bringing the issue of reform directly to formal meetings for study. He has to take a detour, which is a detour, but it may be smooth.

As it is said in guerrilla warfare, surround the city with the countryside.Surrounding the central government by local governments, Guan Xuqing needs to find a pilot point somewhere in India, vigorously promote his reform strategy, and then use the success of this "point" to drive "wide" reforms.But how to choose this "point"?Notify the place directly by administrative order, and then select such a pilot from India?This is obviously not possible, because it will directly expose the emperor's intentions, which will attract obstruction and resistance from all aspects of India.

Since the right path may not work.Then he took a wrong path, an evil path, and on this evil path, Zhao Bingjun's brother-in-law became Guan Xuqing's first sight.

Guan Xuqing's plan was actually very simple.That is, he wants to take advantage of the prevalent status quo of official flattery in the local area, let Zhao Bingjun's brother-in-law take the position of the head of a collective farm in the local area first, and then appear in front of everyone as a purely corrupt image.When he became the owner of the farm as he wished, Guan Xuqing will hold a family banquet in the Forbidden City and invite Zhao Bingjun's family to have dinner here. At the same time, his brother-in-law will also be invited.

It is conceivable how many people will envy the new farmer after attending the emperor's family banquet. At the same time, how will the local officials of the Indian states treat him.There is no doubt that the farmer will become a celebrity in India by then, and in the eyes of those sanctimonious local officials, he will become an even more untouchable figure.

Who Controls the Ups and Downs: The Third World War (closed volume) Chapter 170 and Five Spring Breeze

From then on, Guan Xuqing's second plan will start quickly.He will ask the new farm owner to implement a new policy in the farm he is in charge of, that is, to subcontract the land and all production tools of the farm to the farmers on the farm in the form of lease, and then every year Collect fixed taxes and public grains from these peasant households.As for the remaining part of the grain after paying the public grain, the contracting farmers will keep it for their own use.As for the amount of public grain that each household should pay, it should be slightly higher than the amount of income that collective farms could pay to the state each year.People with a discerning eye should be able to see that this is actually a household-based production contract and land contract responsibility system.

According to Guan Xuqing's estimate, when Zhao Bingjun's brother-in-law was doing this matter, not many people would doubt anything, at least no one would think about the reform of the rural economic system.People are more likely to consider that this new "favorite farmer" is engaging in corruption in a different way. Therefore, some people may sue him for corruption, but no one will say that he is subversive. The land policy that people depend on.

Two years, no, maybe only one year. Guan Xuqing believes that many farmers in the pilot farm will taste the sweetness of this system, and their enthusiasm for production will be fully mobilized.By that time, this once corrupt and depraved farm will become a model of agricultural production in India, and the methods they adopt will be more acceptable to people.People may shout in front of a certain system, "I would rather have the grass of India than the seedlings of China", but no one will waver and hesitate in the face of huge interests.So, why do we have to choose one or two pilot projects before every major economic system adjustment reform?In fact, the role of this pilot is not only to test the feasibility of this reform, but also to dispel the doubts that people originally had in their hearts.

Standing by the lakeside of the Summer Palace, the smug Guan Xuqing did not explain to Zhao Bingjun the real intention of his actions, because he believed that Zhao Bingjun would not disobey his orders.

After wandering by the lakeside with the breeze blowing and rippling waves for nearly an hour, Guan Xuqing, accompanied by Zhao Bingjun, re-boarded the embankment and came to the side of the road shaded by poplars.At this time, four black cars were already quietly waiting there.

Ten meters in front of the car, a patrol team of twelve soldiers with live ammunition, led by a second lieutenant officer, was walking toward this side with neat strides.From the light blue military uniforms they wear, it can be seen that this is the patrol guard guarding the Forbidden City. Their duty is to patrol around the Forbidden City 24 hours a day to prevent hostile elements from attacking the palace.

When passing by Guan Xuqing's side, the second lieutenant clearly recognized his identity. With a loud shout, the group of soldiers turned sideways in unison, and made another salute in unison. While continuing to march, the pace was converted into a standard dragon army goose step.

With a faint smile, Guan Xuqing just made a gesture of waving.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late, shall we go to the Grand Theater now?" After the group of soldiers passed by and Guan Xuqing's hand was put down, Zhao Bingjun leaned over and whispered.

"Well, let's go." Guan Xuqing nodded, said something casually, and then leaned over and got into the car door.

Soon, four black cars drove slowly, and then headed due west.After about ten minutes, the car turned onto Chang'an Avenue and finally stopped in front of the newly renovated National Grand Theater.

"Your Majesty, look," Zhao Bingjun, who was sitting in the passenger seat, suddenly turned around when the car was about to stop at the side of the road, and pointed in the direction of the entrance of the theater, "It's Ulanova."

"Well," Guan Xuqing snorted, lowered his head slightly, and looked in the direction Zhao Bingjun pointed through the glass of the car window.

Sure enough, it was Ulanova, the gentle woman who had been having an affair with the Chinese emperor for more than a year.At this time, she was wearing a plain white windbreaker with a velvet collar, standing pretty at the entrance of the theater, her bright light blue eyes were staring at the emperor's car without blinking.

Seeing the woman who had a special relationship with him outside the car window, Guan Xuqing felt a little warmth in his heart.Strange to say, this dancer from the Soviet Union can always bring him a warm and relaxed feeling. As for why, he himself can't explain it clearly.

The ambiguous relationship between the two has been maintained for more than a year. During this year, Guan Xuqing often secretly dated Ulanova, and most of the dates were held at the National Center for the Performing Arts.Today is another day when Guan Xuqing came to date Ulanova. According to the agreement between the two, Ulanova, who is known as the queen of ballet, will perform her best "" on the stage of the Grand Theater. Swan Lake", but the audience is only the Chinese emperor.

What is happiness?For a man, being in power and having a beautiful woman in his arms, is this a kind of happiness?Guan Xuqing still can't figure it out, but he knows that he is very happy now, really happy.Ulanova herself, as a celebrity of a generation in the literary and art circles, naturally has many suitors, but when it comes to dealing with feelings, she is an extremely conservative person.This soft-hearted woman, who shines like a comet, has never been married in her life, and she is so willing to be the underground lover of the Chinese emperor for decades.

For this love affair that lasted for half a century but failed in the end, some people in later generations criticized, some admired, and some even sighed. The relationship between the children was adapted into a movie and put on the screen.But it is a pity that this costly and sentimental film was not released in China, because the Chinese government believes that this film is the most shameless slander and frame of the great man of the empire.But having said that, this is a relatively realistic film in nature, and it has achieved great success all over the world. Regarding Guan Xuqing's extramarital affairs, most people think it is normal.What happened to the great man?A great man is also a human being, and he also has emotions, joys, sorrows, and joys. As a public figure, it is a sin that cannot be forgiven if he is promiscuous, but if this extramarital affair is based on real feelings, then it seems It can be forgiven.

Of course, at this time, Guan Xuqing didn't know what repercussions his relationship with Ulanova would cause in future generations. In fact, even if he knew, he probably wouldn't have any scruples.People live for what?Is it just for others to see or comment on?The answer is of course no.It's just for others to watch or comment on, it's a model play, not a real person.

Guan Xuqing doesn't want to live for others, and he doesn't care what other people or even later generations think about his private life. He only feels that he is very successful and lives happily.People say that there is always a woman behind a successful man. This is true, but it is a bit too sure.Could it be that there can only be "one woman" behind a successful man, and he can't have a second one?

I spent a warm and charming long night in the room belonging to Ulanova in the Grand Theater, and the next day just lit up.Accompanied by Ulanova, Guan Xuqing walked out of the theater's back door in good spirits.Outside the door, a dozen guards led by Luo Ming had been waiting there for a long time.

"Okay, you go back first." Standing beside a car, Guan Xuqing let go of Ulanova's slender white hand, and said softly, "I will come to see you again in a while."

"Hmm." Ulanova glanced at him with some reluctance, and then whispered, "Take care of yourself and don't overwork yourself. I heard Mrs. Zhao say that you often stay up all night, that's not good .As you said yourself, your body is the capital of your career..."

When Ulan Nuowa said this, Luo Ming, who was standing aside, found it funny, "The body is the capital of a career."This sentence sounds hypocritical, but it is very creative. It was originally reserved for Guan Xuqing, and the emperor often used it to persuade those imperial officials.Now, Ulanova applies it and repays her own way, which sounds a bit ridiculous.

Luo Ming's untimely sneer obviously made Ulanova, who was already a little uncomfortable, even more embarrassed. In the blink of an eye, this submissive woman's face was flushed.

Angrily glaring at his subordinates, Guan Xuqing turned his head and hugged the blushing Ulanova intimately, then took her hand again, and patted the back of her hand lightly. shoot.

"Okay, let's go back, I should go too." Turning around, Guan Xuqing got into the car, and through the opened window, said finally to Ulanova who was standing beside the car.

"After all, did Zhuo Ru ask you to come here so early to urge me?" Guan Xuqing said to Luo Ming in front of him after the car started.

"Hey, not today," Luo Ming turned around, and the thief said with a smile, "Speaking of which, if Mr. Liang didn't stop me, I might have come here an hour and a half ago."

"Oh, did something happen?" Guan Xuqing was taken aback, and said with some doubts.

"It seems so," Luo Ming nodded and said, "Anyway, before dawn, probably before five o'clock, Mr. Feng woke me up and said that he had something very important to tell you. Report. When I asked him what was going on, he also kept secrets and didn’t tell me, presumably it was a very confidential matter.”

"Xianghua?" Guan Xuqing frowned.

"Yes, it's Mr. Feng." Luo Ming nodded and continued, "I originally wanted him to wait a while, but Mr. Feng, Zhao Bingjun, Mao Renfeng, and Zheng Jiemin also arrived. They all had expressions on their faces. Seriously, it made me feel confused, so I thought of coming over to find you quickly."

"Hiss..." Guan Xuqing gasped, and said to himself: Could it be that a new war broke out again?Otherwise, why were the heads of the Supreme Command and the Security Bureau mobilized?The Supreme Command is responsible for the country's military security and homeland defense, while the Imperial Security Bureau controls hundreds of thousands of special agents. The war that can mobilize them all can only be a war brought about by the invasion of foreign enemies.At this time, facing such a powerful military force of the empire, which other countries around will come to make some kind of invasion?This is simply unimaginable.

"Didn't they say why?" Guan Xuqing calmed down and asked again.

"No," Luo Ming said aggrievedly, "I just asked one more question, and I almost got kicked by Feng Gong, so I didn't dare to say more."

"Drive faster!" Guan Xuqing didn't have the heart to speculate anymore, he waved his hand and said something disturbed.

Following Guan Xuqing's order, the car quickly increased its speed.In the rapid reverse of the scenery outside the car window, the car drove through the streets.It took less than 10 minutes to drive into Tiananmen Square.

In front of the main entrance of Qianqing Palace, Guan Xuqing got out of the car door, and saw Feng Xianghua, Zhao Bingjun and others coming out head-on, and when they saw the emperor, their faces immediately showed joyful expressions.

"salute!"

The guard soldiers on duty in front of the palace gate obviously didn't know the emperor's urgency at this time, they saluted him as usual.

"What's going on?" Guan Xuqing asked Feng Xianghua with a quick step to gather with the people coming down the steps. "Where is the fight again? How is the battle? Who is in command at the front?"

"What...what's the fight? What...how is the battle going?" Feng Xianghua was taken aback by the question. He first looked at Zhao Bingjun, then at Mao Renfeng beside him, and finally said a little stammeringly, "Yes Is a new war breaking out? Why doesn't the minister know?"

"I haven't received any news about this, what's going on?" Zhao Bingjun was also taken aback, and asked with a question mark on his forehead.

"You ask me what's the matter! I still ask you what's the matter!" Guan Xuqing became angry when he heard it, feeling that his worry for a long time was a false alarm, "There is no war, so you are mysterious this morning What are you doing secretly?!"

"Oh," everyone was stunned for a while, and then realized that the emperor thought that they came to him together so early because a war broke out.

"You misunderstood," Feng Xianghua held back a smile, and stepped forward, "Actually, we came here so early, and we did have a confidential event to report to you, but this event is not a war, but good news... ..."
