Chapter 811: Learning Western Anti-Corruption

Lu Bu established this system for reporting and whistleblowers to share fines, which not only effectively protected the rights and interests of whistleblowers, but also greatly activated the enthusiasm and initiative of whistleblowers. The whistleblowers no longer rely solely on their sense of justice and the civic consciousness advocated by Lu Bu, but also because the fines are high enough to balance, compensate and even greatly reward their contributions. Instead, they change their original cowardice and actively supervise officials at all levels for the central court under Lu Bu.

From then on, not only did many civil culprits who stood up to report corrupt officials in order to protect their own interests and the interests of the same class, but also many full-time semi-official culprits emerged. They stared at officials at all levels every day, conducted openly and secretly, peeped at surveillance, and did everything they could. Once they obtained the evidence of corruption among these officials, they immediately reported it to the censors, censors, and court officials at all levels intervened. Once they were verified and confiscated the property of corrupt officials, they rewarded the culprits in public at the first time. Once the culprits received a large amount of rewards, they immediately went to the official security company and hired retired Central Army special forces soldiers from the frontline as their bodyguards to guard against the revenge of the corrupt officials' families.

Of course, these whistleblowers' surveillance eyes are not just aimed at corrupt civil officials. According to the regulations of Lu Bu's system, they have paid extensive attention to the leaders of various entities in society, especially the shopkeepers of official enterprises. Just like the bosses of central enterprises and state-owned enterprises in the 21st century, they have great economic resources and have great opportunities to corruption, and they have become prey in the eyes of these whistleblowers.

Under the rule of the Han Dynasty, Lu Bu implemented a system of high salaries and honest support in various places. The salaries of civil servants and official business personnel were twice or even ten times that of ordinary people. It was absolutely no problem to support a family. It was saved and could even afford to raise three wives and four concubines.

Under such a high-paying system, if anyone is still corrupt, it would be really sorry for the court and Lv Bu. He is really a slut.

Lu Bu is zero tolerance for corruption under the system of high salary and integrity. He gives you enough salary and is still corrupt. Even if you embezzle a single copper coarse, he will not do it. Once discovered, he will not only confiscate all illegal gains, but also confiscate your original legal gains.

Lu Bu stipulated that corrupt officials would not execute the death penalty, but would execute life imprisonment and joint seizure. According to the amount of corruption of officials, 10,000 yuan was sentenced to one year of labor. If 10 million yuan was corruption, it would be sentenced to one thousand years. Corrupt officials would not survive even fifty years. The remaining sentence was distributed to all vested families of corrupt officials. His wife and biological children would perform lifelong labor.

Of course, there is a situation where these corrupt officials sent their wives and children abroad before they were discovered, and they were arrested. It doesn’t matter if they were sentenced to death, reprieve or life imprisonment. Sacrifice one person to be happy for the whole family. This situation is feasible in the 21st century, but it is absolutely not feasible in the third century where Lu Bu is located.

These corrupt officials can send their wives and children to the Roman Empire, to the Western Regions, Japan, and Goguryeo. They can send them to any foreign land, as long as their wives and children can tolerate the bumps of tens of thousands of miles of carriages. As long as their wives and children can withstand the backwardness and poverty in those foreign lands.

You should know that Lu Bu is in the third century now. Because the inventions and creations advocated by Lu Bu greatly improved the social productivity of the Han Dynasty. The Han Dynasty's national strength was booming, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. The Han people are the most diligent and smartest nation in the world. Once their rulers are not dictators or idiots, they are not dictators of fools. The Han Dynasty will definitely be the richest country in the world, even several times richer than the Roman Empire. The material life enjoyed by a man of the Han Dynasty may be much more comfortable than a city lord of the Roman Empire. In this case, the Han Dynasty at this time is like the United States in the 21st century. Only foreign vassals go to the Han Dynasty and try every means to obtain the Han Dynasty's Chinese origin, just like going to the United States to obtain a green card. Few Han people go to the foreign vassals to suffer. In this case, the wives and children of corrupt officials go to the foreign land freely, and they will not leave.

Moreover, in the Han Dynasty, Lu Bu stipulated that in order to ensure the safety of the families of officials at all levels, all the families of township officials must live in the county town and be protected by the county soldiers, all the families of county officials must live in the county town and be protected by the county soldiers, all the families of county officials must live in the prefecture city and be protected by the prefecture army, and all the families of state officials at all levels must live in the capital city of Luoyang and be protected by the Central Army. This method is good at protecting, but badly speaking it is surveillance. No official of any level can easily defect to other forces, unless you can abandon all the family members with determination.

Even though some officials have too much corruption, they have to escape from the Han Dynasty. Even if the families of these corrupt officials have escaped, they cannot escape the pursuit of the three major intelligence organizations under Lu Bu, which are spread all over the world.

Lu Bu now fully understood why the three spy organizations of Dongchang, Xichang and Jinyiwei were so notorious during the Ming Dynasty, because the enemies of these spy organizations were all Donglin Party members who controlled public opinion. These bastards who steal state resources for personal gain naturally wish that the court would not have any surveillance of them. In fact, there were Jinyiwei throughout the Ming Dynasty. During the Dongchang period, the emperor could not attend court for decades, and the court was as stable as Mount Tai. The idiot Chongzhen believed the fool of the Donglin Party, weakened the Jinyiwei, abolished the Dongchang, and abolished the surveillance of officials at all levels. As a result, he was still blinded by court officials every day. The Donglin Party was privately prosperous. Shanxi merchants, based on the bureaucrats of Shanxi, had a crush on the Qing Dynasty. All kinds of traitors appeared and began to sound the death knell of the Ming Dynasty.

Lu Bu learned from Emperor Chongzhen's lesson. Not only did he not weaken the privileges of the three major intelligence organizations under his command, he also slightly strengthened their power and granted them the right to arrest, interrogation and partial execution. However, they did not have the right to execute officials above the sixth rank, and the right to dispose of senior officials was in the hands of Lu Bu and his heirs. Moreover, the commanders of these three major intelligence organizations changed every ten years when Lu Bu was at Lu Bu and then rotated every five years to prevent them from losing their heads.

Lu Bu's system of protecting whistleblowers was not only learned from Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che, but also from the evil American imperialism and British imperialism.

Generally speaking, the **s will not report themselves. Under the anti-corruption system where the people do not sue the officials and do not investigate, someone needs to expose it. This exposer is called a "whistleblower" in the West, just like a referee on the football field. When someone violates the rules, the referee will blow the whistle.

It is quite an image to call the whistleblower. With such a whistleblower, every public official needs to maintain self-discipline at all times. If he does not follow the rules, he will be stopped by the whistleblower and sent off.

Although whistle blowing cannot cure the whistle, one thing is certain: "blowing" is better than not "blowing". At least the behavior of the thief is stopped. At least the thief should think twice before thief, and at least suppress the thief's domineering arrogance. It is precisely because of this that countries and regions that are good at anti-corruption have formulated a "whistleblower" system. The United States has the "Whistleblower Protection Act" and the United Kingdom has the "Public Interest Disclosure Act of 1998", which are special legislation to protect and encourage "whistleblower".

The "Whistleblower Protection Act" issued by the United States in 1989 stipulates that if the Department of Justice receives a complaint from the whistleblower and reports and decides to participate in the prosecution as a plaintiff or witness, the whistleblower can receive 13% to 25% of the compensation amount; if the Department of Justice does not participate, the whistleblower can investigate and prosecute on his own. Then he can receive 25% to 30% of the fine.

The Western whistle blowing system has not only achieved remarkable achievements in the field of anti-corruption, but also in the field of food and drug supervision. The US stock market is recognized as the best-growing stock market. One of the important reasons is that the US Securities and Exchange Commission established a "whistleblower" system earlier. According to this system, whistleblowers can receive a reward of 30% of the amount involved. Once verified, counterfeiters and insider traders can be sentenced to up to 25 years in prison. Heavy rewards and heavy punishments are the core of the US whistleblower system.

Falsification and insider trading in some countries occur frequently, and food and drug problems are emerging one after another. If the "whistleblower" system is introduced, the whistleblower will receive a heavy reward and be protected. Why worry about the whistleblower who does not arise from the inside? Why worry about the unstable growth of the stock market? Why worry about the unsafe food and drug? But the relevant departments turn a blind eye to the good Western system and ignore it, which makes people sigh.

Once this system is activated, the entire anti-corruption system will enter a healthy state of operation, and the society will enter a cultural and moral atmosphere of pursuing progress, and the whistleblower's share is fine. It is not a bonus established by the court with public funds. No matter how much the whistleblower makes, it is taken from the pockets of the thugs.

In the third century, Lu Bu did not have any burden of ideology, nor did he have any ideological burden. He did not think that the East was correct, nor did the West was wrong, nor did he think that the ancient feudal ones were wrong. Lu Bu discovered an amazing fact that both the ancient Chinese and Western countries in the 21st century were more clever in the anti-corruption level. The reason why they were clever was that they were indeed willing to fight corruption.

In protecting the whistleblower, Lu Bu decided to learn from the Germans and learn from the cautious and persistent Germans, providing witnesses with all-round legal protection. First, when asked, witnesses can refuse to disclose relevant identity information such as where they live, where they work, etc.; they can ask to cover themselves with a screen or mask, or sit in a testimony room made of one-way glass, where witnesses inside can see the outside, but the witnesses inside cannot be seen. Secondly, when they are convinced that the witness is threatened, they can exclude the defendant

If this is not enough to ensure the safety of witnesses, the witness can ask for trial outside the court and use high-tech to testify using special methods such as video, audio transmission, voice change, image change processing, etc. If it doesn't work, it can use the commissioned inquiry to make a record and submit it to the court. These systems are progressive, linked, and meticulous. These witness protection systems that were not adopted by some countries in the 21st century were completely copied by Lu Bu in the third century.

All states in the United States will deal with retaliation against witnesses as a crime, with the maximum sentence of death, while in some countries the maximum sentence is seven years. Lu Bu listed the act of retaliation against the reporter as a felony, and the maximum sentence is life imprisonment and joint and several liability, and may sentence one thousand years of labor.

Western countries, whether legislation or law enforcement, keep the identity of the whistleblower confidential, and will never unscrupulously send the information of the whistleblower to the bureaucrat who was reported, because it is simply acquiescent to the other party's retaliation against the whistleblower. As the ruler, Lu Bu would never shamelessly protect corrupt officials. In the Han law, it stipulates: "The licensee does not respond to personal circumstances or only tells his previous identity. The name or address of the whistleblower, or any matter that may lead to the exposure of the whistleblower. For any records containing the name, characteristics or possible exposure of the whistleblower, the court should conceal all such materials and dispose of them if necessary."

Lu Bu knew that the Han Dynasty was a society of personal affection and was very kind to corruption. Many people had a negative attitude of self-protection. What's more, they held the mentality of me being too fucked. In order to curb the negative attitudes of these people, Lu Bu learned from Western countries and listed the crime of not citing knowledge. In the law of the Han Dynasty, "Anyone who knows that or pretends not to know or pretends not to know, even if it does not involve any interest provision or benefits, they can be held accountable for disciplinary responsibility. If the reporting is not made in order to benefit someone or to harm someone's interests, they must also bear criminal responsibility. Those who know that corruption is well-founded and who are protected or not cited will be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than five years and not more than twenty years."
