Chapter 451 The power of the council, the power of democracy!

In the Qing Dynasty in 1875, after some local elections, many people in the Advisory Council changed. Of course, if you say that there was no original person, it would be impossible. After all, the local power is still there, but this is also the dark clouds have dissipated.

Yes, many cultural people in many places feel that the dark clouds have dispersed. We can roll up our sleeves and do something big!

So, what are the people from the Advisory Council doing?

To be honest, they don’t know what they do, because just this is the matter, supervision, has never been there before. This is something in the modern democratic system, and it really hasn’t been before.

But however, we Chinese are good at invention and creation, and are also good at combining with our local actual situation. Didn’t we have censors in the past? Then isn’t we just scolding if we have something to do, and scolding if we have nothing to do?

So, this is coming!

"The reason why our Qing Dynasty had a crisis today was because of the flood of Yatian. Although our Guizhou area is remote, how could we sell this kind of thing myself? Isn't this poisoning the whole country? How does the people in other parts of the Qing Dynasty view our Guizhou area? Therefore, I suggest that our Guizhou area government can no longer encourage this kind of Yatian area trade, and it should be prohibited..."

This is the Advisory Council in Guizhou. Some members of the council suggested that we can no longer sell ya tablets, and we should stop this business!

Then this matter...a good thing!

So, as soon as this proposal came out, many people followed up immediately, and even the Advisory Councils in Yunnan and Sichuan also proposed similar proposals.

Who dares to say that it is not easy to come out with a banned ya movie? No one can do it, right?

This matter has extremely pure justice in morality. There is no doubt about it!

But, what is the reality?

What the members of the Advisory Council said were actually very tactful. The reality is that the current Yafan business is actually the local governments of the Qing Dynasty, and these governors are controlling it, especially in places like Yunnan and Guizhou!

Originally, the real hole was in Guangdong and Guangxi, but places like Yunnan and Guizhou really have no specialties in economic aspects. It is not easy to farm in this place. There are many mountains and climates and... In traditional Chinese medicine, it means that there are many miasma and are prone to epidemics.

Therefore, the convenient conditions that can be used in such places are to smuggle ya films. It is easy to leave on the border, and there are people outside, and they even produce them themselves. Anyway, this business is the main source of economic resources of the local government!

It is indeed embarrassing to say this kind of business by the government. But that's the reality.

In other words, should it be banned?

Absolutely! Nothing happened!

But what should I do after this thing is banned?

In terms of Yunnan and Guizhou, this business has more than 60% of the capital operation of the entire government!

In other words, if it stops, the civil servants in Yunnan and Guizhou will suddenly lose their iron rice bowl.

Perhaps these officials usually act like a domineering person and suck the people’s wealth, but if they are gone, serious problems will occur in this society.

Of course, the local governors know about these things, but...

"We don't care! We don't care!"

This is the attitude of the Yunnan-Guizhou Advisory Council. It is simple and clear, and you can't say anything about this attitude, because people say this, it's right to do this!

The Advisory Council is to supervise the government. They only have the power to supervise and have no other authority. Therefore, their attitude is not wrong at all. They are doing this job. As for other things, they are right, otherwise they will overstep their authority.

At this time, the Qing Dynasty had already started to make telegraphs here. This thing was a contribution of the Westernization faction, because the current Westernization faction did not create some real industrial practices. The Jiangnan Manufacturing Administration was smashed before, so they made telegraphs, otherwise wouldn’t they be useless?

So, telegraphing is a good thing. Because of this thing, the Qing Dynasty's central government's control over local regimes has dropped significantly, but now the situation has improved a lot. At least the Qing Dynasty's central government can quickly know the local dynamics.

This thing appeared twenty or thirty years earlier than the original history. It was precisely because of this thing that the matter of the Yunnan-Guizhou Advisory Council was quickly known to the entire Qing Dynasty, and so...

It's done well!

We have to learn too!

Among the eighteen provinces of the Qing Dynasty, which province has no dirty things?

Even if it is not selling Ya films, there is nothing else. So the members of the Advisory Council were happy and just learned from Yunnan and Guizhou. Let's take the small braids of these powerhouses.

Various voices came out again. Some said that you cannot engage in entertainment, but it is just a miserable girl. Your government cannot interfere. Some said that you officials cannot engage in smuggling... Officials who are smuggling by themselves have actually been there for a long time. For example, the sea ban was imposed in the Ming Dynasty, but in fact, many ministers were smuggling at home, such as the famous Xu Jie, who had a small house in the capital, but in his hometown in Jiangnan, hehe, and he also fooled the emperor to not increase the commercial tax...

Anyway, it’s all kinds of things to find trouble!

So, the officials in this place all had a headache, and this was really a death!

"5 months! You will let me stop doing 5 months! After 5 months, I will stop my business in Yantu!"

This is what Guizhou Governor Guarja and Songfan told the members of the Advisory Council, which is his solution. Didn’t your MPs propose it? Then let’s solve it, but you have to give me some time to solve this problem, otherwise what should I do?

A transaction that accounts for 60% of the government's expenditure, stops as soon as you say it? Isn't this nonsense?

Logically speaking, this requirement is actually very normal and reasonable. After all, this business of buying and selling yan land was not started by him, so you can tell by the name. He is a man of man, and he was airborne.

but!

"No! Our MPs held a meeting, we voted, and we disagree!"

"Yes! If you want to break it, you will break it immediately!"

"If you, Songfan, will cut off this business immediately! Well, all our congressmen will resign!"

The members of the Advisory Council have a very, very tough attitude!

Songfan was a Manchu. When he saw this, he forced him to do so. Can Manchu still be angry with the Han people?

"Damn it! You will resign if you resign! I'm still afraid of you?"

Songfan's attitude was also very tough. He was a businessman. Of course he knew that as long as he stopped here and suddenly he had no other source of income, he would not have to work in the entire government office.

Moreover, what the hell is this Consultative Council? Can they treat me like this? I am so full of people!

It can be said that Songfan's tough attitude has roots, but when the Qing Dynasty's central government learned about this matter quickly... this is right, there is a telegram, and the Advisory Council was supervised by the Central Committee, but it attaches great importance to it.

So, what will happen after the central government knows?

"... Although the Advisory Council is too voluntary, Guarja and Songfan are not dealt with properly and are not favorable to the people! They are not worthy of the holy heart!..."

Simply put, it was an order to scold Songfan for a good scolding!

It can be said that the attitude of the Qing Dynasty central government, that is, Cixi's attitude, was very particular. She did not punish Songfan too severely, but she had a clear attitude on the surface, that is, the central government was on the side of the Advisory Council.

In other words, no one can stop the political system reform of our Qing Dynasty!

To be honest, this reprimand was a result of being fought against Cixi by Prince Gong and others. Cixi’s original meaning was to capture Songfan directly back to the capital!

Yes, I just masturbated for Songfan!

If Cixi really did this, it would be enough to see. In fact, Songfan is a good governor in the local area. He is a man of a man. Of course, he is in the center. Although he also has his own little plan, he is much better than governors in other places.

To put it bluntly, this is our own person in the Central Committee, and places like Yunnan and Guizhou are far away. To put it bluntly, the power is not strong enough, so the Qing Dynasty can control it and replace it with other good places. It is difficult to intervene. And you, Cixi, want to severely punish Songfan?

Then isn’t this a self-destruction?

The same is true for Songfan's original reliance. He felt that he was devoted to the Qing Dynasty, a loyal minister, and those who were consulting the council, were he considered a fucking bird?

But unexpectedly, this ending turned out to be like being slapped hard by the central government!

Many people saw this attitude of the Qing Dynasty. There were naturally many praises, and the people from the Advisory Council, let alone!

Keep going!

Yunnan and Guizhou have made a move, and the advisory boards in other provinces are even more joking. They are like news media in later generations, constantly exposing the dark side of local governments.

The independent princes in the local area were really unbearable.

In this way, the central government of the Qing Dynasty was of course happy. How great is this? This step of reform was a great success. The rights that could not be taken back in the past are now supervising us. Moreover, the pressure of public opinion is really useful. The Advisory Council exposed the matter and the telegram was reported to the whole country at once. Do you want to change the princes in your local area?

Hehe, you will be scolded to death!

From this round, the central government of the Qing Dynasty was very happy and it can be said that it saw the phased results of the reform.

But, however, the princes in that place are all elites. Are they stupid?

So how do you deal with these advisory boards?

You can say nothing, there are capable people and smart people... (To be continued...)
