The first thing to do is to review the Lubin Mansion Yamen's political participation income and expenditure.
After Liu Shenglin picked up the materials distributed by the instructor, his pupils contracted sharply.
Why do I spend so much money?
The taxes collected from the temple fair last autumn alone reached an astonishing 67,815 silver dollars.
The subsequent issuance of fish tickets, grass tickets and various mining tickets is also considerable.
In addition, there are also taxes paid by various shops opened before the New Year in Lubin Prefecture, plus subsequent taxes in Hulun City and other places.
Liu Shenglin was surprised to find that Lubin Mansion held a Christmas. Although it caused trouble, it boosted the economy of Lubin Mansion.
After the New Year, the Gray Ax Army and the Blizzard Squad went out to suppress bandits. The army went out to fight, which was supposed to waste people and money, but it also increased some tax revenue. After the New Year, the sales of various shops surged.
How is this possible?
The tax amount is shocking, and the expenditure is equally shocking.
Military spending accounts for the bulk.
Liu Shenglin looked at it and frowned: "What a nonsense!"
This year, Lubin Mansion only planned to build a road, but it actually wanted to build a road up to 20 meters wide. The main road in the city is paved with a Western product called "asphalt"?
Why waste this money for no reason?
Even if we build a road, there is no need to build more than 20 meters?
Dig culverts to discharge sewage?
Manhole cover?
Buried street lights?
Build a power station?
Tile sidewalk?
Plaza?
Library?
Lubin Government calls this government infrastructure.
Do you have money to burn?
The tax revenue of Lubin Prefecture may seem astonishing, but to set up such a large stall, the little money is just a drop in the bucket.
Liu Shenglin sneered three times, continued reading, and stopped laughing.
Invite investment?
Bidding? Pay later?
It’s just nonsense.
This means you owe money first and settle the bill after the work is done.
If the money cannot be paid by then, won’t Lubin Mansion’s reputation be ruined?
The key is that Liu Shenglin’s family is rich. After seeing the bidding, there were several projects that he really wanted to participate in.
But when he considered that Lubin Mansion had to advance money to do the work first, and then pay the money after the work was completed, Liu Shenglin was not happy.
It was as if he was sure of winning the bid.
After all, he is in the Advisory Council. Doesn’t he think this little thing is within his reach?
The worst thing is spending money to gain relationships.
However, he would have to object later.
The duties of their members are to promote advantages and eliminate disadvantages, impeach officials, review government revenue and expenditures, propose bills, and discuss reforms
According to the information, the following are bills proposed by many members. There are almost more than 80 bills, including 12 industrial and commercial bills, 3 education bills, and public security bills.There were 17 bills, 28 prison bills, and more than 20 other bills.
They are all brought to the table after passing the review.
Wait until they see it.
Yao Jia knocked on the microphone again.
Dong dong.
Yao Jia held a cigarette and coughed: "Ahem, everyone, a lot of information should have been handed over to you for reading. However, the Lubin Mansion Consultative Bureau was founded and there is insufficient manpower. , I am not well prepared, so please bear with me. In addition to the bills you have in hand, there are also several bills proposed by the prefect, and we will take the lead in discussing them."
The facilitator distributed the materials again.
This time the information contains all the proposals proposed by Zhao Chuanxin.
The first thing is that the flag fleeing law was abolished in the Lubin Prefecture area.
The second thing is that the princes and Taiji were abolished in Lubinfu area.
The third thing is to establish technical schools in the Lubin Prefecture area to cultivate employment skills for the Han and Banner people who have no employment opportunities.
At a cursory glance, the crowd was in an uproar.
Yao Jia broke into a cold sweat.
Although he agreed with Zhao Chuanxin's decision, he did not think that Zhao Chuanxin's bill could be passed in the Advisory Bureau.
Yao Jia knocked on the microphone: "I will give you ten minutes to think about it. In ten minutes we will start voting."
There was a big bell swinging above the venue. Tick tock.
Suddenly there was a sense of urgency to race against time.
Ten minutes, fleeting.
Yao Jia said: "Lubin Prefecture Magistrate Zhao Chuanxin, the first motion is to abolish the flag fleeing law in Lubin Prefecture. Those who agree raise their hands."
The most original Method, show of hands.
Yao Jia felt nervous, as if waiting for a fateful decision.
I even dare not look at it.
The scene was silent for two seconds. To Yao Jia’s surprise, there was a roar of hands raised.
There are vote counters in the venue, counting from four directions, and the votes of the four people must be consistent to be considered passed.
But Yao Jia only made a rough count and knew that the motion was passed.
At least 23 people voted in favor.
Someone pounded the table angrily: "Why is it passed? Why? It's really unreasonable."
Yao Jia pointed at the microphone and said coldly: "You can question it, and you can submit it after the parliament is over. . If you are angry, please find someone to fight on the spot. I won’t stop you, but you can’t threaten me.” Yao Jia’s words led to frequent fights among members of the Advisory Council and bloody heads. flow.
The man became the leader and was targeted by Yao Jia, and his activities suddenly ceased.
Although Yao Jia is not as cruel as Zhao Chuanxin, he is not someone easy to provoke.
Theoretically, the financial power of Lubin Mansion is in the hands of the foreign woman Rebecca Levi.
But in fact, Rebecca Levi is the manager who settles accounts, and the real person in charge of financial life and death is Yao Jia..
In addition, this person has just experienced a life and death disaster, but now he is presiding over the meeting like a normal person. He is obviously not an ordinary person.
Seeing the silence in the venue, Yao Jia read out the votes and then announced: "The first motion is passed. The second motion is to abolish the prince and Taiji in Lubinfu area."
Despite being mentally prepared, the crowd was still in an uproar.
Yao Jia once again had the urge to look away and not dare to see the result.
However, the result surprised him again.
The number of votes in favor reached 23 again.
What the hell is going on?
He fully believed that this second bill would fail.
Unscientific, 12 out of 10 unscientific.
He looked questioningly at Tang Qunying, who was nearest to him in the audience.
Tang Qunying was also confused and shook his head slightly to express that he did not understand.
After the results came out, Yao Jia read out the votes again and said: "The second motion is passed. The third motion is to establish a technical school in the Lubin Prefecture area to train Han and Banner people who have no employment opportunities. Employment skills.”
This time, the number of hands raised exceeded 34.
Yao Jia smiled.
The first two items have been passed, so there is no reason to block the third item.
But he still waited for the vote counting results to appear, read the votes after the inspection of the civil election governor, and then talked about the results.
The process is very strict to reduce the possibility of cheating.
"Okay, I'll give you ten minutes to rest and vote on the next round of motions."
Yao Jia took advantage of this moment and ran out staggeringly.
Outside, Zhang Shouzeng and others, who were not members of the assembly, were waiting for the results at the door.
They have no voting rights and cannot even enter. Apart from the members and the speaker, the only ones who can enter are reporters. However, reporters are not allowed to speak before the end of the parliament, otherwise they will be forcibly removed from the venue.
But if every motion is passed, someone will come out to report it.
This is public.
Yao Jia hurriedly found Zhang Shouzeng: "Heyan, tell me quickly, what is going on? Why did it pass so smoothly?"
Zhang Shouzeng smiled. Yixiao: "The imperial court wants to set up a consultative bureau to formulate public opinion for each province, and to plan local and public security. But the imperial court stipulates that the qualifications of electors and electees are subject to restrictions on gender, age, property, education, and industry. If you observe carefully, it is not difficult to find that members can only be elected by gentry from all over the country, officials and wealthy people at the yamen gate. Women are not allowed to enter the house, tenant farmers are not allowed, and craftsmen are not allowed to join our consultation bureau. There are merchants and herdsmen. , there are tenant farmers, there are women, there are craftsmen, there are vendors, there are scholars, there are also students who specialize in Western science, there are law-related professionals, and it is the epitome of the real 400 million compatriots. If it benefits the majority of the people, the people will agree to it. If it were the imperial court setting up a consultation bureau, it would never be approved."
Yao Jia suddenly realized: "The prefect had anticipated today's situation a long time ago, and it was really a good game of chess. ”
“That’s it. "Zhang Shouzeng leaned on the railing and looked out the window, and said with emotion: "Your Majesty, the magistrate, usually laughs and curses, but he has a lot of troubles in his chest, which is really difficult for people to guess. "
Just like what Zhang Shouzeng said
In the conference hall, Liu Shenglin slammed the table and asked Jiang Lingzhu through Wu Xiangning: "It's just a woman who agrees with those three bills. Why do you do the same? Short-sighted? What does Zhao Chuanxin want to do? Abolition of princes and princes is just a superficial appearance. He is trying to dig up the roots of the gentry! ”
According to what he thought, Lubin Mansion will sooner or later become a place for the Han people to gain a foothold.
What will they do after they gain a foothold?
Find a way to acquire land and buy property!
Lubin Prefecture does not charge money for land reclamation, but it restricts the distribution of land for farming.
It doesn't matter. People like Liu Shenglin have plenty of ways to get land.
Are you pretending to be someone else?
But Zhao Chuanxin wants to combat this.
Jiang Lingshu sneered: "If you think that the Consultative Bureau is for your own benefit, the gentry and landlords. , then you are totally wrong. I advise you to put this thought to rest as soon as possible. "
"You" Liu Shenglin never expected that the young man Jiang Lingzhu would tell his original intention so straightforwardly.
It made him blush and thicken his neck.
Wu Xiangning crossed her arms and sneered: "We herdsmen followed the prince and Taiji to oppose the new government policy in order to get pasture for ourselves to graze. Do you think we are of the same mind as them? "
Liu Shenglin's face was ashen, but he was speechless.
Ten minutes are up again.
Yao Jia returned to the stage and announced: "The next item The bill was proposed by Tang Qunying of Lubin Prefecture to improve the status of women in Lubin Prefecture and establish a higher education school for women in Lubin Prefecture. "
Tang Qunying's nostrils flared with excitement, and she said to the people on both sides: "It's me, I proposed the motion."
However, the result disappointed her.
p>
All the women in the audience raised their hands, Jiang Lingzhu raised his hand, and some public officials in Lubin Mansion raised their hands.
But even among the congressmen with daughters at home, only a few raised their hands. There were not many people.
Now it was Tang Qunying’s turn to slap the table: “Isn’t this reasonable? As a daughter, can’t she shine on the family tree? I've hated it since I was a child because I couldn't change my bun! Women can also save the country from danger, but they are a bunch of short-sighted people."
Yao Jia hurriedly said: "Tang Qunying, if you don't like anyone, you can do it, but remember not to threaten. Do not fight with weapons or bare hands. Do not beat anyone to death. ”
This is the second time that everyone has heard Yao Jia say that they can take action if they are unhappy.
Good guy, everyone is numb.
Tang Qunying heard this , immediately stood up, rolled up his sleeves and shouted: "Does any man dare to meet a woman like me? "
A very strong man actually stood up: "Do I think I'm afraid of you? ”
Tang QunyingImmediately stepping forward, the man hesitated.
It was this hesitation that made him unlucky.
Tang Qunying slapped him.
Pa
The man has five fingers on his face.
He was furious and punched Tang Qunying.
Tang Qunying dodged and kicked the man on the calf.
"Ouch" the man hugged his legs and jumped.
Even though he was strong, the place was narrow and he couldn't move widely. In addition, he was not as flexible as Tang Qunying, who had practiced martial arts since childhood, so he suffered a big loss.
At this time, the two guides came over and pulled the two people apart one after another: "Okay, okay, stop fighting."
The man gritted his teeth angrily and pointed at Tang Qunying. : "You wait!"
"Afraid of you?"
Yao Jia's angry voice echoed throughout the audience: "I told you, you can fight, but you can't threaten. Who dares to physically The threat was carried out and the Council found out that he was immediately disqualified as a member."
The man was furious.
Tang Qunying returned to his seat with his head held high, like a victorious general.
Next, the smoking ban bill was passed.
The votes for the ban on gambling were evenly matched, which surprised Yao Jia.
Why are there still people opposed to the ban on gambling? But whose interests are touched?
Next, Liu Shenglin’s motion was read out: “Gentleman representative Liu Shenglin’s motion is that the gentry should participate in Lubin Mansion’s infrastructure construction, civil litigation and reclamation planning.”
This is The motion was, not surprisingly, rejected.
What’s dramatic is that the next bill was proposed by Jiang Lingzhu. He proposed: “The Lubin Prefecture Government Office should build the Lubin Prefecture Regional High Court. Lubin Prefecture, Hulun City, Zabaikalsk, Zhuobalse should invest in the construction of a regional intermediate court. In order to ensure fairness and justice, the lawsuit should be decided by a judge and should be handled in court, not by the patrol police, let alone the gentry, princes, and Taiji who should be involved in the process. Law enforcement must be carried out, law enforcement must be strict, Liu Shenglin and other gentry shouted: "No! The law is nothing more than human feelings. If this happens, what will happen to Lubin Mansion?" Aren't there too many cruel officials? In my opinion, the gentry should manage the litigation."
Jiang Lingzhu raised his speech board, instead of just opening his mouth like others.
Yao Jia likes people who abide by the rules, so she immediately stretched out her hand and made a "please" gesture: "But it doesn't matter."
Jiang Lingshu stood up and looked around: "Gentlemen are called lords by the people, but they have a good reputation. Unless they commit murder or arson, they can be exempted from the local government's responsibilities and pay very low taxes. Jiang has been studying law for several years, but he still doesn't dare to understand it. So, Do the gentry know the law? Can they just rely on subjective assumptions? After breaking the law, you can decide for yourself what is fair and unfair."
Liu Shenglin is still waiting to speak.Jia didn't give him a chance, and said into the microphone: "Those who agree, raise their hands."
Wow, more than half of the votes were in favor.
Liu Shenglin is so angry.
If this continues, they will soon be nothing more than gentlemen.
The world has really changed.
Zhao Chuanxin has a veto power on the motions of the Advisory Board.
But he does not participate in parliament.
And the veto power cannot be used easily, otherwise it will lose the hearts of the people and cause panic.
Zhao Chuanxin practiced the light blade for a whole day.
Legendary cultivation means that after low-level cultivation reaches a certain level, there will be a sudden breakthrough and upgrade.
But he is different.
Level 1 is level 1, and level 2 is level 2. Once you are proficient at level 1, you cannot break through at all.
He became familiar with the level 1 light blade after using it for a day and a half.
But when it comes to level 2 runes, he cannot master them no matter what.
Xingyue said: "The level 1 light blade rune is your initiative to condense energy. The level 2 light blade rune is based on level 1, guiding energy. From then on, it increases in sequence and becomes more and more complex. ."
Zhao Chuanxin popped out a light blade the size of a grain of rice and dissipated about ten centimeters in front of his finger.
He flicked his fingers again, and there was a light blade rune the size of a millet grain on the tip of his middle finger. He could use this to cut a piece of paper, but that was all.
He said distressedly: "It's like a maze, how to guide it?"
It's still a four-dimensional maze.
If it were a level 10 light blade rune, he could hardly imagine it. Would it cover the entire starry sky?
Xingyue said: "It takes a lot of hard work, but only the hands are familiar."
Zhao Chuanxin practiced until night, and felt extremely irritable.
I simply stopped practicing and went to the restaurant owned by Niu Hanzhang’s family to eat and drink, then teleported to the white house and opened the old divine code under the dawn light on the glass roof.
After calculating the consumables, Xingyue used central control rune fragments and solid rune fragments to build a gun-making machine for the pioneer partner Haven.
The machine was put into trial operation, and various parts were successfully made from solid rune fragments.
The Pioneer Companion Haven has some metal stored, but lacks wood. Only two guns have been built so far.
The metal stored in Pioneer Partner Haven is steel shipped by Zhao Chuanxian from the Essen Steel Plant in Germany.
He sent over a gun made by Xingyue's assembly line.
This is a bolt-action rifle imitating the Italian m1891. However, the round-nose bullets of the original gun have insufficient long-distance shooting performance. Instead, pointed bullets are used, and oil-root gunpowder is added to improve the range and power. Dramatic increase.
The total gun length is 1300mm, the barrel length is 900mm, and it weighs about 9 pounds. It has double locking latches at the front end. It has a fully constrained ammunition supply function, a simple structure, a small number of parts, and low use and maintenance costs in the desert.
The operation difficulty is extremely low.
Zhao Chuanxin teleported the gun back.
Human beings in the Old God Codex world are tall and physically stronger than people on Earth. It is natural that guns should be larger and heavier.
I activated the energy fluctuation convergence rune fragments and teleported to the Shadow Forest to cut wood to make guns.
The leader of the forest elves told me worriedly: Fearless Pioneer, according to the prophecy of the forest elves, when the Ancestral Spirit Peak shakes, the world is about to end. An earthquake occurred in Zuling Peak a few days ago. In the past, humans outside rarely set foot in the Shadow Forest, but recently, humans have frequently entered the Shadow Forest to take refuge. The bee-men, ant-men and other tribes that we drove away also reappeared in the Shadow Forest. Many people in my tribe were killed by unknown reasons.
Zhao Chuanxin said: Your guess is really accurate.
I said: Yes, I have also heard many people discussing the end of the world and the imminent resurrection of the gods.
I have no way to tell the forest elf patriarch about the energy fluctuations and convergence rune fragments, so I can't tell him what happened in the cursed desert.
The leader of the forest elf said: Fearless Vanguard, I want to give you a task. I want you to recall the elven scout. His people need his help. I have nothing more to give you. If you are willing to help, I can give you a few wishful thinking mushrooms as a reward now.
All your wishes come true after eating it, no side effects!
Zhao Chuanxin was stunned.
I, Cao, is there such a good thing?
Why did you hide such a good thing before?
He immediately wrote:
I agree.
I got my wishful thinking.
In Zhao Chuanxin's hand, there was a mushroom that was no bigger than a thumb. It was colorful, slender, and very clean.
Eating this thing will make all your wishes come true?
The leader of the forest elf said: Eat it in time, otherwise it will wither.
At this time, Zhao Chuanxin shrank when he saw that his wish had come true.
I blanch, is it such a timely method? Even a few seconds slower?
He gritted his teeth, closed the old divine code first, and ate all his thoughts into mushrooms
