My name is Ren

Chapter 344 Great changes in an era often start with a trivial thing

In the end, almost all votes were passed in the sixth vote, for which some people paid a small price for others——"Supplementary Articles of the Reform Plan of the Imperial Parliament"

In the supplementary clauses, many new rules and regulations have been added to the parliamentary leading group of Pilargos, for example, the speaker has more powers.In the past, the three speakers only had the power to increase the number of votes and did not have the ability to directly interfere with voting, but now they do.When four of the five speakers have the same opinion, as long as the number of votes in favor exceeds 30.00%, it can be passed.This move has greatly strengthened the speaker's ability to control the parliament, and it also means that the "minority" has the possibility of a counterattack.

At the same time, as long as four speakers oppose a bill or policy, the voting item will be suspended and postponed, and it can be voted again after modification.

The speaker's power in parliament has been greatly improved, allowing the speaker to gain greater authority.

As part of the transaction, Pelagos also returned part of the benefits to Queen Pars after receiving the benefits.

Members of Parliament will no longer be life-long positions, but will be born by election.The entire election is divided into two parts. One is the election of permanent members who will be voted by the Congress. The permanent members will be permanently stationed in the imperial capital and will be replaced every three years.The other part is members elected by the local nobles and political parties, and the local and political party internal elections determine the appropriate candidates to serve as members.These councilors don't stay in the imperial capital all day, they can choose to participate or not to participate in the parliament.

If you do not participate, you will automatically abstain from voting and do not account for the total number of votes. This type of member is replaced every five years.

At the same time, the speaker will have the power to initiate the impeachment of a member. After three rounds of voting, if the number of votes in favor exceeds 70.00%, or if three speakers agree and the number of votes in favor exceeds [-], the impeachment will be passed, and the impeached member will lose his status as a member.

The rotation system and the impeachment system are actually regulations set up to consolidate the power of the speaker in the end.Every rotation of councilors is actually a feast of profit sharing. If you want to participate in this three-year profit distribution, you must hug the thighs of the speakers.

There are also some relatively unimportant regulations that cannot affect the overall situation.

In short, both parties were very satisfied with the result and got what they wanted.

Ryan also got what he wanted.

Among the less important provisions, 150 of the 350 voting seats would be reserved for non-aristocratic parties.The nobles occupy 250 seats, including councilors elected by local nobles.The nobles are also very satisfied with twice as many seats as civilians. After all, compared with [-] seats, there are now an increase of nearly [-] seats, which is enough for many people to be eligible to join the ranks of parliamentarians.

Even if some people are dissatisfied with the 150 seats that the civilian class will take away, they will soon take the initiative to move closer to this side in the new round of elections.

This is a huge victory, and it will also be a turning point in history!
No one has discovered the reform of the Imperial Parliament yet, which directly turned history around a corner and moved forward in an unprecedented and unforeseen direction!

Complete the book!
However, it does not.

At noon, the first page of Pravda grandly introduced the process of the reform of the Imperial Parliament. A saint of history in the imperial capital commented in the newspaper for the first time, saying that this was an "exciting" reform, and the non-aristocratic class entered the empire. The parliament, the premier political core of the Orlando Empire, means that the power of the people has been awakened and has been valued by those in power.For the first time, the rights of a citizen are taken seriously, a victory for all Desi, and a victory for the Empire of Orlando.

The saint believes that this move will directly ease and change the phenomenon of class antagonism, resolve the disadvantages brought about by strict classes, and the people will also start to control their own destiny through representatives.It has strengthened the public's recognition of the empire and also increased the cohesion of the empire.

At the same time, scholars who have never been peaceful stood up immediately and announced the establishment of the "Orlando Imperial People's Party" to strive for more benefits and treatment for the Desi people, and keep hunger and poverty away from the kind-hearted Desi people .Responders gathered for a while.The initiator, the former dean of the Royal Academy of the Imperial Capital, Grand Master Randolph, announced as the party leader that he will participate in the first election after the parliamentary reform and will give speeches across the country.

Many scholars began to build momentum for Randolph, and the momentum was huge, and it quickly radiated around the imperial capital. Some cities close to the imperial capital established branches on this day.

"This is beyond my expectation." Ren tapped the table with his fingertips, "These guys are more sensitive to smell than I thought, but don't worry, they won't be great."

Already known as the "Father of the Civil Rights Struggle", Tretter nestled on the sofa, lazily holding his teacup, blowing on the bright red tea soup, "150 seats is not too many, plus the People's Party is four parties. In terms of strength, the People's Party is obviously not as good as other parties, but in terms of appeal, the People's Party is stronger." What he said is not wrong. Compared with the People's Party, which has a larger audience, the other three parties seem to be limited to among a certain group of people.

There are far fewer farmers, businessmen, and workers than ordinary people.But the strength of a party is not that whoever has more people is stronger, but depends on each other's corresponding status in society and the division of labor.There are no ordinary people, a farmer is still a farmer, a merchant is still a merchant, and a worker is still a worker.But can ordinary people live without these people?Moreover, it is precisely because of the positioning of a certain group of people that the cohesion of these three parties is far from comparable to that of the new People's Party.

It's just that Randolph's punch really caught people off guard. Ren believes that spontaneous parties will not erupt at least after the first plenary meeting of the Imperial Council.At that time, people saw the changes and benefits brought about by the restructuring for a while, and then they burst out with more enthusiasm.

After pondering for a moment, Ren said: "In the final analysis, the nobles have the final say in the election of seats. Even if we can't prevent Randolph's people from entering the parliament, we can let them occupy as few as possible in the parliament. seat. And I'm not going to just accept that fact, I'm going to fight back."

"What are you going to do?" Tretter was a little curious.

"From what they are best at, to disintegrate their buildings." Rennes smiled confidently, "Public opinion!"

The media of public opinion in this world is still at a relatively simple stage. There are more or less two newspapers in the imperial capital, but outside the imperial capital, many public opinions can only achieve the purpose of propaganda through word of mouth.Now that the scholars have "participated in the war", Rennes will not be relentless.He wants to publish several newspapers covering the entire Orlando Empire. Scholars don't have the financial resources, but he does.As long as public opinion can be controlled, these scholars will obviously become insignificant.

It can be said that Ren is better than scholars in discrediting this thing!

Under the general trend, there are also some small things happening quietly.

In the Imperial Research Institute, the first steam engine prototype has been built. For this reason, the director of the Imperial Research Institute hired two master craftsmen to knock out the prototype by hand according to the drawings.A group of researchers looked at the internal combustion engine on the circular orbit with great excitement.When the cap of the steam engine was lifted by the steam and a thick steam was ejected, the heavy steam engine began to operate.The piston pushed the wheel, and it began to move forward slowly on the predetermined track.

"It's a miracle!" An alchemist stared at the steam engine with a speed of less than ten kilometers per hour obsessively. He was so excited that his hands were shaking. "This is simply a miracle! The God of Light is above, there is no magic power fluctuation, and there is no need for Tiberium spar, relying entirely on this..." He suddenly didn't know how to describe the thoughts in his heart, and held back After a long time, I finally managed to choke out a word, "This kind of natural power can exercise, it's amazing!"

Some people were a little disappointed by this, "But its speed is too slow, not as fast as a horse running, not to mention those more advanced mounts, this kind of steam engine has very little use value." He took off his eyes while talking , the room with a sharp increase in humidity was filled with suspended water droplets, which covered his glasses lenses with a layer of mist. speed?"

Immediately, some people echoed it, and some people put forward more ideas and opinions, but only the dean of the Imperial Capital Research Institute did not express his opinion.People gradually shut up and turned their attention to this powerful old man.

He raised his hand and pressed it, coughed lightly, and said, "I don't think there is any need for magic transformation!"

This sentence confuses most of the researchers. If it is not modified, what is the value of this restored steam engine at such a slow speed?The slow speed is not suitable for transportation, let alone carrying people. Is its value just placed in such a laboratory as an incidental product of the pursuit of truth?

As if understanding the confusion of these people, he continued: "You have already learned that there is no fluctuation of magic power on this steam engine, and it is destined not to be a magic product. This means that not only us, but ordinary people can also create this steam engine. A kind of machine and put it into practice. Our thinking has always been fixed on magic, no matter what kind of problem we encounter, the first thing that comes to mind is which kind of magic circuit to use to solve the problem, or which kind of magic base to use to avoid trouble .”

"This is a kind of narrow selfishness!", he unknowingly accentuated his tone, "From ancient times to today, magic power is constantly weakening under the 'ebb tide', one day we may not be able to release any magic, all There is also the possibility of the magic base being in danger of becoming a waste. On that day, do we have to accept the reality and sink in despair?"

"No, God has directed us to a brand new direction, a direction that does not require any magic, and any magic base can solve all problems!"
