Chen Zhongliang certainly has reason to worry.
He had already become a county magistrate in the Ming Dynasty.
Moreover, a county magistrate who is less than thirty years old is actually considered young even in the new Ming Dynasty, which pursues the "rejuvenation of officials".
Moreover, this time the emperor urgently recruited him to the northern capital, which may be of great use.
Of course Chen Zhongliang wanted to make a big splash here in the Ming Dynasty, and he also had an uncle who was the prefect of Guangzhou - as long as he went to the mainland to serve as an official, this uncle would become his uncle in minutes!
Therefore, Chen Zhongliang, who has both ambition and background, is now at the peak of his career ambitions.
Now that I see the crisis in the north of the Ming Dynasty, I can't help but feel a little heavy.
You know, Qian Ming was gradually hollowed out and finally collapsed when there were refugees inside and built-up captives outside.
Although the Ming Dynasty is now powerful in military force.
But if we encounter a scene like that in the late Ming Dynasty, it’s hard to say how many years we can withstand it.
Especially now, there are enemies in the south, north, and west of the Ming Dynasty!
After entering the residence arranged by the Tianjin magistrate's office and settling in as a child.
Chen Zhongliang walked alone to the streets of Tianjin.
After buying a recent newspaper at a newsstand, I hurried back to my residence.
I didn’t see much information about the refugees in the newspapers. Instead, I saw news praising local tycoons for donating money to the victims.
However, Chen Zhongliang still saw some useful information, that is, the Beidu court was now recruiting immigrants from the Northeast.
Go to Liaodi for farming.
Chen Zhongliang was thoughtful.
"That's it. That's it!!"
Chen Zhongliang suddenly became enlightened.
"So what?"
Xu Hongxia, who was breastfeeding with an open mind, asked.
"I know the emperor's intention of asking me to come to Beidu! Why didn't I think of it! Ha! Hahahahaha! I, Chen Zhongliang, am really going to be prosperous!"
He stood up suddenly.
"Madam, I have troubled you to take care of the children these days. Please don't disturb me except during meals!"
"What are you going to do?"
"Retreat!"
Chen Zhongliang got into the study, squinted his eyes, and recalled the various experiences and lessons he had in charge of reclamation and development in various places in Lanfang in the past two years.
These are the steps for him to advance!
"Weak minister Chen Zhongliang, long live my emperor!"
Yangxin Hall, Imperial Study Room.
Emperor Zhu was looking through the book "Lanfang Reclamation Gains and Mistakes" in his hand with admiration, and nodded frequently.
"Without courtesy, please sit down."
Zhu Daohua said with a smile.
This Chen Zhongliang was a talent recommended to him by Chen Tingxuan, the prefect of Guangzhou.
It’s true that you don’t shy away from your relatives when you’re a good person.
However, Chen Zhongliang's various measures in Lanfang coincided with Zhu Daohua's ideas about the development of the Northeast.
Moreover, this article [Lanfang Colonization Gains and Losses] summarizes the Ming Dynasty’s experience and lessons in reclamation and development in Borneo in great detail.
And these valuable experiences and lessons.
In the future, it can be used for reclamation development in the Northeast, Northwest, and North America.
Chen Zhongliang sat aside carefully.
He heard Emperor Zhu politely address his cousin and ask: "Zi Qi, you have done a good job in Jifeng County. The county with the fastest expansion in Lanfang is the county under your rule. Tell me, How did you come up with the idea of breaking down the boundaries between clans and regions?”
Chen Zhongliang hurriedly said: "Returning to the emperor, it's because I am in Lanfang and I am often shackled by the clan. Many things cannot be done. Moreover, within the clan, the big family bullies the small family, and outside the clan, the big family bullies the small family. In a place like Lanfang that requires everyone to work together to develop, this unfair village situation is really not conducive to uniting everyone."
Zhu Daohua nodded slightly.
yes.
In a place like Borneo, if we cannot unite, how can we develop, how can we drive away the natives, and how can we protect the fruits of our labor?
And to unite, it is impossible for everyone to unite due to the inherent exploitation and unfair distribution of benefits within and outside the clan.
And to develop colonization, especially the development that truly colonizes the people with the characteristics of the Ming Dynasty.
We must unite as one.
"That's why I want to break up the clans and organize villages based on families instead of clans. In addition, the guard system is not suitable for implementation in a place like Lanfang, because the settlement needs to be profitable. If If you can't make a profit, or if most of the profit is taken away by the guard officer, then there can be no unity. What's more, the guard office is under the generalisal's government, and the officers sent are all warriors. How can they know how to run a farm? But if The commander doesn't care, let the military households below do their own thing. It's fine in Shudi, but if we encounter an environment like that of Lanfang where we have to fight with the natives all the time, the military households of this single family will not be able to fight against it."
"So on the one hand, the distribution of benefits in a settlement village must be fair to unite everyone. On the other hand, the scale cannot be too small. A settlement village must have at least a hundred households or more, because when opening up raw land, doctors are needed. , teachers, accountants, it is best for the government to set a unified price to purchase the income from farming, and then provide commodity supplies. In addition, for cattle, horses and other livestock, a single family cannot afford it. It is best to own them collectively and use them jointly. , like just like.”
"company?"
"Yes! The emperor is right, it is a company! If you want to make a profit, you must run this farm as a company. You cannot let the farmers below grow whatever they want. It is best for the government to purchase it uniformly. Unified sales, how can ordinary small farmers understand the market price, so the price needs to be uniformly stipulated by the government."
When Zhu Daohua heard this, his expression became more and more serious.
In collective farms, the means of production are collectively owned and purchased and sold collectively.
Tsk tsk tsk.
Is this Chen Zhongliang also a time traveler?
This is proper socialism with Ming characteristics!
If this is successful.
Use this method to develop North America.
Could those North American colonists compete with the collective farms?
This is a dimensionality reduction attack.
But this Ming Dynasty is an empire.
Could a feudal empire engage in such an experiment that was close to socialism?
Zhu Daohua thought quietly.
Judging from Lanfang’s experience.
Chen Zhongliang was very successful.
After thinking for a moment.
Zhu Daohua said: "Ziqi, your idea is very constructive, but tasks such as unified purchasing and marketing, as well as selling daily necessities and various production materials to farms cannot be left to the government."
"If you don't want to do it for the government?" Chen Zhongliang was stunned, "Then who will do it for?"
You know, if thousands of collective farms are set up in the Northeast in the future.
How much influence will the institutions that control the sales volume and purchase price of agricultural products on these farms, and even the sales market of farmers on these farms have.
"For whom"
Zhu Daohua did have a headache.
For private individuals to do this?
How can this be.
If collective farms were established, then these collective farms would be the most effective grassroots organizations in the Ming Dynasty.
These organizations must not be controlled by others!
But if you let the government bureaucrats do this.
The possibility of doing something wrong is still very high.
After all, Boss Zhu is experienced and has seen a lot.
Then
State-owned enterprise? !
A word that was out of date for more than a hundred years came to Boss Zhu's mind.
Are there any countries now engaging in state-owned enterprises?
Um.
Theoretically speaking.
Organizations like this kind of unified marketing cooperatives must implement corporate management on the one hand and be profit-oriented to avoid bureaucracy.
on the other hand.
Harmony is also an important weapon of the country and cannot be manipulated by others.
It seems to be calling for the arrival of state-owned enterprises again.
Boss Zhu kept thinking about the failure cases that adopted too advanced production relations in the inappropriate era.
After all, I didn't dare to take this step.
"Ziqi, why don't you stop being an official for the time being."
Zhu Daohua smiled.
"I will establish a Northeast Development Corporation. I will invest part of it privately, the court will invest part, and then raise part of the capital from the private sector. It will be regarded as a mixed joint-stock enterprise, and the control will temporarily belong to the royal consortium."
"You will be the general manager! You will be responsible for everything from the establishment of collective farms! I will give the Daming Development Corporation exclusive rights and sign a unified purchase and sales contract with each collective farm. The funds for the establishment of collective farms in the Northeast will go to the Daming Development Corporation. The company's accounts, and all land in the Northeast will be temporarily reverted to state ownership and can be leased to collective farms on a long-term basis. The ownership will belong to the court, the right to use it will belong to the farmers, and the right to market agricultural products will belong to the Northeast Development Corporation."
According to Zhu Daohua's idea.
The Daming Development Corporation is an agricultural trust quasi-state-owned enterprise.
The main purpose is to provide basic market functions for purchasing agricultural products, selling daily necessities and means of production to collective farms in the Northeast while taking into account profits.
And collective farms cannot be turned into a big pot.
It is an operating entity whose shares belong to all bankers!
In the future, the banker's equity can be sold on the market.
The only thing that made Emperor Zhu feel very uneasy was.
Isn't this a little too ahead of its time?
It's too big a step.
It's easy to pull off the eggs
