Chapter 638 My power as an emperor is infinite

After Su Yonglin explained, everyone in the meeting fell into deep thought, and nodded slowly as he explained, understanding the reasoning.

Kong Maojie, director of the Supervision Department of the Renaissance Society, quickly responded.

"So what the chairman means is that the state enacts laws and enforces that whether it is a famine year or a good year, no matter what the situation is, the landlord must never extract more than [-]% of the grain, and cut this line to death, it can be low but not high, so as to protect the tenants Interests?"

Su Yonglin nodded.

"Yes, that's what it means. The tenants have no bargaining power, and they are not even within the scope of the imperial household registration statistics, and they cannot be protected by the imperial court. This situation is infinitely similar to the [hidden households] in ancient times. This situation itself is what we unacceptable."

Su Yonglin continued: "With such a law, the interests of the tenants can be protected, so that the tenants will not starve to death because they lose their bargaining power even in famine years, and restrict the landlord's mischief and hoarding. I think it is beneficial to the country and the people. thing.

We need to know that the more the landlords exploit, the greater the possibility of generating refugees, and once refugees are generated, it is the government that has to pay the price. How can there be such a good thing? "

After hearing Su Yonglin's words, Zhou Chong, director of the General Affairs Department of the Renaissance Society, frowned.

"Chairman, this is naturally a good thing, we all know it, but can this really be implemented in place? Not to mention that there must be protests in the DPRK, even if the court passes this decree, can it really be implemented locally?
To implement this policy, the total grain output must be determined. To ensure justice, the government must intervene in weighing, and the government must send people to intervene between landlords and tenants. In this case, can the landlords agree?You also said that this will cause a nationwide shock. "

Many people agree with Zhou Chong's opinion, thinking that such a policy is good, but it must be difficult to implement.

Don't even think about this kind of thing, it is almost inevitable. Many famous reform strategies in ancient times are very difficult to promote, and some even take ten or twenty years to slowly advance. whip method.

Nonetheless, there is also the danger of death.

In this regard, Changjiang Yu of the Organization Department also raised his own concerns.

"Even if the imperial court forcibly pushes forward and forcibly sends people to intervene between the landlords and the tenants, then in order to recover their losses, the local landlords are likely to clear a group of tenants and keep only the minimum labor force.

The land belongs to them, and the government cannot take it by force. In this way, there will be a large number of refugees who will affect the stability in the local area without waiting for the disaster year. So, wouldn't it be a worry for the Ming Dynasty? "

Yes, this is also a problem.

Many participating members agreed with Jiang Yu's view, and felt that once this law was implemented, it would inevitably cause many difficulties. What's more serious is that the effect has not yet been seen, and first of all, there will be a large number of refugees that affect social stability.

It is also unknown whether the landlord groups will hold armed protests, which is very troublesome.

In contrast, there is another group of revival members.

They believe that Su Yonglin is right in doing so, and they must fight against this unfair exploitation and oppression, and lead the tenants to overthrow those bastards who have lost their conscience.

Tian Guizi spoke on behalf of these revival members.

"The tenants work hard, the landlords sit on a lot of land, do nothing, and can enjoy the benefits without going to work in the fields, and can forcefully seize more than half of the fruits of labor from the tenants. The tenants are hungry and blue, but the landlord is ruddy.

Many of you here are from tenant families. Don't you know the hardships and misery of tenants?To change all this, isn’t that the original intention of the Revival Society?If this is so timid and fearful of the life and death of the tenants, is there still a need for the revival to exist? "

After Tian Guizi made his speech, the venue was silent for a while.

Tao Yongguang, a subordinate of Tian Guizi and head of the Civil Affairs Department of the Ministry of General Affairs, also made a speech.

"I think what Premier Tian said is right. Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover, and there is always a solution to the problem. The chairman also said that you can't stop solving problems just because you have problems, and you can't be afraid of your tail because you are worried that there will be problems. To solve it, if this is the case, what is the difference between the revival and those rotten officials?"

Led by Tian Guizi and Tao Yongguang, this group of Fuxing members firmly supported Su Yonglin's idea and strongly demanded the promotion of this policy.

This group of members headed by Zhou Chong and Jiang Yu is not against Su Yonglin.

Zhou Chong stood up to speak.

"We just thought about it more, but felt that doing so would cause a huge shock at the moment when Daming was just established, making the country unstable. Daming has not yet unified China, and there are many regimes around.

The Xia Kingdom in the west, the Song Kingdom in the south, the Goryeo in the east, and the grassland cavalry in the north, these are all potential threats to us. If we have troubles ourselves, won't they take advantage of it? "

Tao Yongguang firmly opposed this and stood up to refute it.

"The stability of a country is always relative, and there is no absolute stability. It is normal for some regions or areas to experience vibrations. If we have problems, these countries may not be free from problems.

I heard that there is a serious conflict in the Xia Kingdom. The Xia Kingdom's King Li Renxiao and the country's Prime Minister Ren Dejing are fighting openly and secretly. The internal division is very divided. Do they have the spare power to interfere in the Ming Dynasty?

The same is true of Song State. The peasants are uprising one after another, and Song State is tired of suppressing the interior. It is impossible to threaten the safety of Daming. As for Goryeo... he would not dare to attack Daming even if he had ten courage.

Moreover, such an approach is in the interests of the vast number of working people, and it is bound to get the support of the majority. There is no need to fear those exploiters, just as the Restoration Army never feared the Jin Army. "

Tao Yongguang's rebuttal left Zhou Chong and Jiang Yu speechless, and members who objected to this had nothing to say, so they could only turn their attention to Su Yonglin.

Tian Guizi and Tao Yongguang also looked at Su Yonglin.

Kong Maojie, who had not spoken much, also looked at Su Yonglin.

Su Yonglin listened to their discussion and remained silent for a while. Now that they had finished arguing, Su Yonglin nodded slowly.

"I also know your concerns. As Director Tao said, I am not worried at all. Xia Kingdom, Song Kingdom, and Gaoli Kingdom are all dead bones in the tomb. Although the cavalry in the northern grasslands is fierce, there is no unified word. It's not enough to be a threat.

So what we really have to face is the internal problem, just the rebellious attitude of the landlords to this matter, they may cause chaos, but isn't that just right? "

Su Yonglin's words aroused most people's doubts.

After being stunned for a while, Kong Maojie, who had not spoken, was the first to react.

"I understand! What the chairman means is that once these people violate the law, they will violate the law, and the three judicial divisions are all under the control of the Renaissance Society. When the time comes, they will be justifiable! The teacher is famous! Anyone who opposes can do it. Buckle the hat of rebellion and deter Xiao Xiao!"

"correct!"

Su Yonglin smiled and said: "The key to this matter is not to expect them to implement it properly, but to pass it at the central level to make it a real law. After the legislation is successful, according to this law, those who violate the law will be criminals. Just do them.

Moreover, the three judicial divisions are all under the control of the Fuxing Association. In the future, the local judicial departments will also be led by Fuxing members. At that time, the use of this law can fully crack down on those who violate the law, seize their land, liberate their tenants, and logically seize the rural power.

As for before that, they cleared the tenants, tried to create refugees to affect the local stability, and put pressure on me, that is what I can expect, but I am not worried, I have enough land for them to farm, I have enough Food and manpower can escort them to where there is land.

They retire the people they don't want, I want the labor they don't want, I want it, and they don't give me a lot of labor for no reason, to Daming, isn't this a good thing?Do you guys think this is a bad thing?
They let me be the emperor, yes, I will, but if they want me to be the emperor, they will give me imperial power. As an emperor, my power is infinite. If they don't obey, it will be a rebellion. , because I am the emperor. "

It's also a way of fighting magic with magic.

To make him emperor, he must be given imperial power. In principle, imperial power is infinite. As long as Su Yonglin has enough support, he can do whatever he wants.

Does he have enough support?

Of course there is.

After a little thought, the members found that there is indeed a lot to do.

As long as Su Yonglin really has enough manpower, material resources and land to deal with these expelled tenants, he can turn them into his own strength.

Does Su Yonglin have it?
Of course there are.

There is money, there are people, and there is even enough land to distribute.

And Su Yonglin is really willing to spend money, he really has a strong mobilization ability, and he really has a very strong execution ability, all of which are beyond the imagination of the landlords and evil gentry.

If they resist, Su Yonglin will resolutely strike, and immediately harvest a batch of land and population.

If the yang acts against the yin, Su Yonglin can also use the local judicial power to attack, and can also reap the land and population.

If they pretend to abide by it, but in fact they want to cause local chaos, then as much labor force they throw out, Su Yonglin can eat as much labor force.

The amount they throw out is limited, but Su Yonglin's appetite is far greater than they thought.

So once this game begins, Su Yonglin is really confident that he can win and that he can gain an advantage.

He is confident that through this game, a new way can be opened up for the Renaissance Society to expand its local power, and before the full-scale liquidation operation is launched, the foundation for a victory for the Renaissance Society will be laid.
