According to Chinese rules, the appointment of any provincial official requires the approval of a majority of the local council and a vote of the Chinese Grand Council. Only candidates with more than half of the votes can become ministerial-level officials.
However, after all, the Chinese nation was a fledgling nation, and the Balni province only existed on the lips of high-level officials. The Balini Parliament was nowhere to be found, and it had not been established.
This situation operates in accordance with the legal procedures of the Chinese Code. It should be voted by the Chinese Assembly in Ryukyu. Someone nominates and everyone votes. Only then can Huang Wanxia become the Minister of Culture and Education.
This is the most correct legal procedure. Obviously Huang Wanxia has not experienced such a process. But even Fang Dong and Wu Haoran did not dare to question the identity of this minister who had not been approved by parliamentary votes.
Because Huang Wanxia’s nominee is the head of state, and how could the head of state’s nomination not be passed in the Grand Council? There is also centralization within the framework of democracy. Xiao Letian is the representative of centralization, but no one dares to question this centralization because he is the founder of the entire Chinese nation.
Wu Haoran is not a fool. On the contrary, his IQ is very high. He was blinded by anger just now. When Fangdong stopped him, he figured everything out as soon as his mind calmed down.
"Is this true? You were appointed by the head of state? Sure enough, you succeeded..." Wu Haoran who said this did not have a sarcastic tone, but felt extremely lonely.
"Okay, Minister Huang, although you are not the largest official in Boni Province, you are indeed the earliest official. We must respect you for this! I think you must have something to explain when you come after me, right?" "
Why the two of them suddenly became respectful was because they finally understood how important the Minister of Culture and Education was. Don't think that this is a Qingshui Yamen. Cultural and educational work has always been the focus within the Chinese.
The power Huang Wanxia holds in her hands at this moment is already something that the Fang family and the Wu family must rely on, especially regarding the issue of admission quotas for Ryukyu universities.
Bo Ni Province has just joined the Chinese ethnic group, and it must have received many preferential policy supports at the beginning, among which the establishment of education is the most important one. Who among the children of these big families in Nanyang does not want to go to Ryukyu to study?
Who has the right to recommend, and not the Minister of Culture and Education? What will the world's big families fight for in the future? Not only money and connections, but also talent reserves.
In the military world, business world, political world... and even the scientific world in the future, whether there are people of your own in these industries and whether there are direct descendants of your own family is the most important indicator to measure the strength of a family.
Huang Wanxia has seized the power of education in the entire Balni Province. At this time, she is no longer the poor principal she was before. No matter how big the family is, she must be polite now.
After understanding this, the two of them quickly changed their smiles and apologized for their rudeness.
Huang Wanxia is also a woman with a delicate heart and a sweet heart. She sees clearly but does not tell clearly, "You are fighting for the entire Chinese people in Borneo. It is normal to be emotional after a bloody battle. I am not that petty. I came to see you today just to hope that you don't misunderstand the head of state!"
"After you left, the head of state specially left me to bring you some words. After observing for 24 hours, the head of state is still satisfied with your work, especially the war you fought brilliantly!"
"Really! Are these really the words of the head of state?" The two of them became as excited as if they had been given blood.
Huang Wanxia smiled faintly, "Don't you still know the battle you fought? The head of state said that the battle of forcibly crossing the Balan River allowed him to see the bravery of the Nanyang Chinese. In the future, the new army will definitely increase the proportion of Nanyang soldiers. of!"
"However, the head of state also saw something that worried him. Human trafficking is actually just a symptom. The source of the problem is not actually here, but the Nanyang Chinese family!"
"The head of state said that the so-called feudal system must be attached to the family system. All feudal dynasties must have countless powerful family forces..."
“I only have the family in my eyes and no concept of the country. The monarch and the king are actually just a co-owner elected by the major families. They should first fulfill their filial piety and then be loyal, protect the family first and then consider the country. This is what the Chinese have always wanted to abolish. thing!"
"But in the past few years, Nanyang has experienced great economic and cultural development, population growth and increased military strength, but it has actually gone backwards in terms of public consciousness!"
"Fangdong...Wu Haoran...You two are both elites in the big family, and you have been trained with a lot of money as the next generation of family heads. Tell yourselves whether the Chinese code in Bai Layi is the most powerful now." ? Or are your families more powerful?"
"Human trafficking has formed an organization. There are unfilial children in your big families participating in it. Without the family's connivance and protection, how could they possibly traffic people to the Qing Dynasty?"
"Remember, remember! The head of state is actually not opposed to intermarriage between Chinese and indigenous women. Even the phenomenon of some high betrothal gifts is unavoidable. After all, the imbalance of the male-female ratio is an unavoidable problem that must be solved!"
"The child bride system is cruel, but in Borneo today, it is also a way to educate indigenous children... But why do you conduct slave trading? You even bound your feet to satisfy the preferences of those perverted men in the Qing Dynasty!"
"You are also from the military academy. The two things that the head of state hates most about the Qing Dynasty are pigtails and foot binding! Do you know? You have touched the red line of the head of state..."
"Because the head of state has equated these two things with the greatest evil in the world! Unforgivable evil!"
Huang Wanxia scolded her, and the two grown men broke into cold sweats at being reprimanded. Especially when it came to saying who was bigger, the family or the code, they almost knelt down.
Xiao Letian was right. The Chinese family concept is too strong, especially in remote areas like Nanyang. Since Xiao Letian did not exercise effective rule here, but only exerted influence, the entire social structure was completely based on ancient times. rules run.
A wealthy family will continue to have children and continue to make money, and then acquire more land and industries to make more money. They may even bring relatives from home to gather together to form a clan.
There were conflicts between different clans, and of course there were intermarriage alliances. Gradually, several families came together to form a force.
As long as there is power, there will be armed forces. This is certain. As they accumulate more money, they will naturally have a sense of protection. They purchase weapons to organize their own guards, and even hire people with high force value to guard their homes and homes.
Soon, a local power gradually took shape, and the Fang family and the Wu family grew bigger little by little.
It's a pity that when a family grows, there will definitely be unfilial sons. Human nature is to help relatives but not to take care of them. Even if a relative does evil, the first thing the family thinks of is to protect them.
This is a deep reason why the Nanyang slave market can grow so big!
