From Chief to Ball

The "Great Regulations" stipulates various situations that may lead to war. As long as the regulations of the Great Regulations are met, war can be declared directly, but this kind of thing has never happened before, so the people of Xia Guo are extremely angry.

By the way, some workshop owners and big landlords have long felt that there are too few people nowadays, and it is too slow to rely on the country to give birth to children, and there are also a group of illegitimate eldest sons and illegitimate children who have no hairs. The land is also very good.

With [-] votes in favor, [-] votes against, and [-] abstentions, the National People's Council declared war on the city, and Chen Jian stood on the sidelines and did not interfere at all.

But after the declaration of war, the "Expansion Act" followed after the victory. The previous Huaxia League clearly stipulated that no country will be enfeoffed in the future, and there can only be less but no more. So what about the newly conquered land?And most importantly what about the people of those conquered lands?

The big farmers proposed that non-Chinese people could be used as slaves, and they put forward a very "scientific" theory under the suggestion of the agronomy class.

"We believe that non-Chinese people can be used as slaves. Not only as slaves, but also like breeding cows and horses."

"Everyone knows that short peas always give birth to short ones, and strong cows and horses always give birth to strong ones."

"For slaves, some of the strongest ones should be selected as slaves, and of course some with big buttocks should be selected as female slaves. They live to have children. According to one child a year, they can live for 15 to 20 years."

"If they are born strong, they will be kept and raised; if they are not strong, they will be drowned. In this way, why does Xia Guo worry about not having labor for work? It will take less than 50 years to cultivate everywhere."

Chen Jian sat there, listening to such "reasonable" remarks, but remained silent.

A few old-fashioned people below shouted, "This is wrong. Humans are human beings, not animals."

"But you are already human, don't worry about them!"

"We are not for ourselves, but for more people! This is against the wishes of our ancestors. Our ancestors hoped that we would educate those who have gone the wrong way, instead of directly capturing them as slaves. Otherwise, Xia Guo would not be like this Qiang Qiang, speaking of you, you don’t even have the surname Ji, if the king hadn’t captured people and made them slaves, you would be a beast now! If you want to put it this way, only people with the surname Ji are human beings, and those with different surnames are beasts!”

dang dang...

It was no longer Chen Jian who ordered the door, he knocked on the gong for a while, finally calmed down, and asked, "Any other opinions?"

A workshop owner stood up and said: "We don't think we should be slaves. First of all, being a slave and giving them a free status, of course, the free status does more work. Furthermore, the king said that the things made should be sold. All of them were captured as slaves, and the rest were killed. To whom should we sell our things? It is enough for the slaves to give them a bowl of rice. Will you buy clothes for the slaves? In the end, this is not very in line with the wishes of the ancestors, and we still need to be educated. of."

"Education? You pay for it?"

"We can support some, or reclaim the land there, and hire the people there to work. In order to prevent them from rebelling, we can also support some people in the city, let them share some benefits, and let their children come to school. It's better than Being a slave is stronger."

"Besides, if you bring them back as slaves, what about our heirs? Those who have no property will not agree to these people taking their jobs."

After listening to it for a while, Chen Jian secretly wanted to laugh, his mind was full of mercenary, and he said a lot of reasons, the education of his ancestors was always the last reason.

The final bickering finally died down, and the Expansion Act finally took shape.After the capture, a governor was set up at the same level as the county magistrate, but he had the right to mobilize the local garrison.It is not allowed to import slaves into Xia Kingdom.All Xia Guoguo people, after serving in the military, can go to distant places to open up, open farms, workshops, etc., and are exempted from tax within two years.Those who have made military achievements in the battle can apply for financial support from the government...

On the whole, the interests of the already rich old Xia people are still maintained, because the poor have nothing, and even if they go there, they have no capital to develop. They can only find ways to obtain military merits and mix with the financial support provided by the government.

Chapter 144 It's Over

Declare war, start a fight, call soldiers... Now that everyone has agreed, everyone feels that this meeting should be disbanded.

However, before the meeting adjourned, Chen Jian suddenly walked to the front desk, and everyone who had already stood up was stunned.

Standing with Chen Jian were Hong Yu and his younger sister Yu Qian'er. Everyone felt a little weird and had an ominous premonition for a while.

"Accordingly, I shouldn't be standing here at this time. This time, I will break the rules we set up."

"I'm old, I'm nearly sixty, my teeth are loose, and I can't eat happily. It's time to hand over everything about Xia Guo to younger people."

boom……

The following suddenly became chaotic. As early as 20 years ago, Chen Jian had already focused on promoting a few capable people. Now the most capable people, who have fought in wars, made meritorious deeds, served as county magistrates, and county guards, have become step by step. Shang Shu Zuo Pu shot, entered Xia Guo's decision-making circle.

Everyone knew that this was the next king, and they all knew that their current king would grow old one day, but they didn't expect Chen Jian to say it himself.

Relying on his playing house in the previous 30 years, Chen Jian created a weird system and left behind many weird official names.

It may fail, but it is enough to leave a seed that makes people know that the world does not need an emperor.If it doesn't work, it will perish. Xia Guo is gone, and there are still big countries such as Qi and Wei, etc., there will always be one who can complete the unification, use the same language, and have the same culture.

Xia Guo's rights are concentrated, but they are also mutually restrictive.

The order is regarded as the chairman of the National People's Congress and the highest judicial officer. It is used to monitor whether the government order complies with the agreed "Great Regulations". If it does not comply, it can be rejected.

The "Great Regulations" is regarded as the constitution. Chen Jian tried his best to think of various situations that may arise within 200 years. It is very cumbersome, or it can maintain stability for decades, and he can't know what happened after that.

The three provinces restrict each other, but the king has the right to nominate Shangshuling and Zhongshuling, which will be voted by the People's Council, but when Chen Jian was here, he only nominated one. people.

Although Wang has the right to nominate Shangshuling and Zhongshuling, the qualifications for nomination are strictly regulated, which are clearly written in the regulations.There are strict regulations on academic qualifications, assessment, and whether to start as a local official, and it is required to be the top chief of the Six Ministries or other departments to be eligible.

The king, or the decision-making circle including the three provinces, basically has the right to be arbitrary, as long as it does not violate the regulations, as long as it does not order to strongly oppose it, or even hold a temporary national council to oppose it.

Shang Shu Zuo Pushe is basically the next successor. Since Chen Jian, the kings have left after 20 years of office. If they do not leave after the term of office, it will be regarded as a betrayal of China, and everyone in the world can conquer it.

Chen Jian is also very clear that, in fact, in a maximum of 30 years, this weird system will become a small circle of various big families, and it will be up to the people of the Xia Kingdom to make their own choices.

If every emperor is Qinhuang Hanwu, it must be better than this set of weird things, but generally every emperor thinks that he is Qinhuang Hanwu, in fact, if you look closely, you will find that you are at the same level as Sima Zhong.

Besides, the Xia Kingdom is part of the ethnic group, not all the ethnic groups are the Xia Kingdom. If this ethnic group is really not suitable for standing, then one life will be a hereditary king and beat everyone to their knees.

Regardless of success or failure, regardless of whether there are ambitious people or not, at least the ethnic group is left with another choice, a possible non-imperial choice.

As for the threat of nomads... Chen Jian felt that in a few decades, nomads would have to squat on the grasslands to burn cow dung. No martial arts or blood would be better against the threat of nomads than lead bullets and bayonets.

Hearing the buzzing sound below, Chen Jian pressed his hands to keep everyone quiet, and said with a wry smile: "Our country of Xia is the only one. I will hand over the country of Xia to you. I hope you really understand the power of public instruments The difference between it and a private weapon, and you understand the stories I told you."

"The little bird will always try to fly when it grows up. I don't care how you fly, just do what you want to do."

He wanted to say a few more words, but after thinking about it, he felt that there was really nothing to say, so he handed over the king's seal, took a last look at these familiar people, smiled without any nostalgia, and drifted away.

A car, never look back after saying goodbye to everyone in Hwaseong.

The three people in the car are all old, and they are no longer young, with gray hair and wrinkled faces.

After the car left Hwaseong, all three of them had smiles on their faces.

"Where is this going?"

"As I said back then, go to the sea and watch the sun by the sea."

Red Fish sighed, thinking that this was a promise many years ago.Yu Qian'er at the side also remembered that when Xia City was first established, he asked his brother what was on the other side of the mountain, and now he finally had the opportunity to see the legendary sea.

After a long time, Hongyu suddenly asked: "A long time ago, you said that one day you may be the enemy of the whole world, and you may even stab me and Yuqianer to death when you can't fight them. In the past few years I've been waiting, thinking you're going to do it, but in the end we're going to go to the sea."

Chen Jian smiled and turned his palms into the backs of his hands. He wanted to explain something, but after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't even say a word. He just looked at the scenery outside and said, "It's getting cold, what a beautiful autumn."

The people in the car stopped talking, and whoever was crying, choked up and said, "I haven't been happy in my life..."

After a long time, on a small hill by the East China Sea, Chen Jian sent away the two closest people in the world.

Two handfuls of loess, nothing else.

Sitting between two piles of loess, Chen Jian cried for the first time in this life.
