Lin Yan thought so, but it was absolutely impossible to ask everyone to think the same way as her. She's not that naive yet.
Take Huang Ye for example, it is a big obstacle to achieve equality.
Alan just wanted to divide the big families, but Huang Ye had already strongly opposed it. It was extremely difficult to do this alone.
Lin Yan agreed with Alan's approach. The existence of big players was indeed not conducive to development.
A family with a large number of people always has a sense of superiority. If the family tradition is upright, it's okay, but if you encounter someone like the Jin family who is unreasonable and bullies small households, it will intensify internal conflicts over time.
Now, before the big players have formed a climate, it is time to stifle the crisis.
There are more and more newborns and the population is growing rapidly. It is time to strengthen management.
Sun City should establish rules and regulations that everyone must abide by and not act recklessly. The system is a constraint and a kind of protection.
After thinking about it, Lin Yan went to Alan and talked about his vision for the future.
After hearing this, Alan was very appreciative, "Your ideas are the same as mine. You are more thoughtful than I thought. It is exactly what I want to do. Let's list the system first and let the people in the arbitral tribunal discuss the modifications."
Alan was very excited. She felt that what Lin Yan said was exactly what she wanted Sun City to look like, but she couldn't describe it herself. After hearing Lin Yan's thoughts, he suddenly became enlightened. I wish I could have a big fight right away.
"Don't rush this. There are too many issues involved here. For example, the division of large households, family relations, marriage between men and women you mentioned, etc., cannot be done immediately. We have to take time to figure it out. First, find a few people to consult privately. Let’s take a look and see what they think.”
Lin Yan felt that there were too few people who thought the same as them. Among the current members of the arbitration tribunal, it is estimated that only Alan voted in favor. Others either staunchly objected or remained silent.
Although it is difficult to do, it is necessary to do it. One step forward is one step forward.
Alan calmed down and said, "You are right, these questions are too sharp. As long as Huang Ye objects, others will not agree."
"We might as well change our thinking and not clearly put forward the concept of dividing large households, but only formulate a system to stipulate what can and cannot be done, clarify the rights and obligations of individuals, and first let people have a basic understanding in their hearts. Know and understand that the system is to protect the basic rights and interests of individuals from being infringed."
Alan hesitated and asked, "How should this be stipulated?"
Lin Yan smiled slyly, "We only stipulate that men and women over the age of sixteen can voluntarily start a family and open an account. We don't force it. Anyone who wants to start their own business can do it."
"If it is stipulated in this way, the intention is indeed not that obvious." Ah Lan's eyes lit up, "Since it is a single household, it is a new family, and it is divorced from the original family."
"That's exactly what I mean." Lin Yan nodded, "There are always people who want to live separately. As long as one person does it, others will follow suit. Time will help us achieve what we want."
The two talked for a long time and listed the items to be listed. Lin Yan said that this was the basic law of Sun City and everyone must abide by it.
In the next two months, the people at the arbitral tribunal were busy establishing the Basic Law, and Lin Yan participated in the entire process. The wheat she planted has already grown ears and will mature in a while.
The growth cycle of wheat is longer than that of roe, and Lin Yan estimates that it will take about four months to mature.
On March 25, the arbitral tribunal held a plenary meeting, and Huang Ye attended with his sick body supported.
Also attending the meeting were the owners of the laboratory and managers from various departments.
The purpose of this gathering was to discuss the first draft of the Basic Law and to make deletions and revisions.
After everyone arrived, Alan read the first article aloud. The Basic Law was established to protect everyone's life and property safety and to protect the interests of Sun City. Everyone must abide by it.
No one had any objection to this article, so Alan continued to read the second article.
All people are born equal and free, and enjoy independent personality and the right to life.
As soon as he finished reading, Kurotsuchi asked: "What does independent personality and the right to life mean?"
Alan said: "Independent personality refers to human independence, autonomy and creativity. It requires that people neither rely on any external spiritual authority nor any real political power, and have the ability to pursue truth. The ability to make independent judgments and the spirit of independence in political participation. The right to life refers to the right to life that a person enjoys in accordance with the law and is not subject to illegal infringement. Once the right to life is deprived, other rights cannot be discussed. Therefore, the right to life is the most fundamental Personal rights.”
Lin Yan found this passage from a book. It can be said that she transferred most of the contents of the Sun City Basic Law.
Alan put in a lot of effort to understand every word in it, and she answered the entire debate.
The fierce debate lasted for three days, and the Sun City Basic Law was established, with a total of thirty-two articles.
It stipulates the rights and obligations that citizens of Sun City should have, and everyone should abide by them. It also involves land, the election and rotation of public officials, the revision of the Basic Law, etc.
Everything was ready. On April 1, the Basic Law of Sun City was promulgated.
At the same time, it also brought a new shock to people. The Basic Law was written on yellowed paper, with black ink and neat handwriting. It was written in one page.
When people look at the light paper, they just feel like they are dreaming. I dare not touch it for fear that it will break if I touch it.
The original version of the Basic Law was engraved on a stone slab with verbatim verification under the witness of everyone, and was strictly kept by the arbitral tribunal. The paper versions issued are all transcribed manually.
Bai Chen showed his excellent ability in papermaking and got everyone's attention.
At this moment, many people realized what the existence of the laboratory meant. What are those kids working hard on every day?
Alan and Heitu also turned their attention to the people in the laboratory. In the past, they only thought that Lin Yan was leading a group of children to toss. Now, they don't think so.
Faintly aware that the existence of the laboratory is the key to changing Sun City. Whether it is the research on iron tools or the paper made, it is unprecedented.
After paying attention, I discovered that they, who I thought were still little babies, have grown up, and each of them can take on their own role.
Lin Yan didn't have time to pay attention to the two major events that shook Sun City. All her attention was on the wheat seedlings in the field.
At the end of March, the wheat ears were already full, and by April they were gradually turning yellow, and matured in just a few days.
The more than twenty ears of wheat at that time turned into hundreds of ears of wheat. It's heavy and makes people feel good when they see it.
When Lin Yan was sure it was ripe for harvest, he cut off each ear of wheat himself and carefully observed and recorded the proportion of empty shells and full ones.
The final summary found that empty shells accounted for nearly one-third.
In late April, she selected some wheat ears with few empty hulls and planted them individually.
Then plant other ears of wheat in another patch. Get ready to see what happens to the next generation.
