Chapter 758: Great Industrial Development (Part 1)

When Shi Maozhou, chairman of the Democratic Rehabilitation Party, showed his content about national culture to everyone, he immediately won a lot of applause. At this time, Xiao Hongsheng, the former director of industry and commerce and now the chairman of the Huafu Party, also took the initiative to come up with a statement, and then handed it over to Wang Guorui.

"Your Majesty, this is about my humble opinion on the future development of various industries in the mainland. Please correct me." Xiao Hongsheng said.

Wang Guorui looked at this article, and there were tens of thousands of words, which was as thick as a book of short stories. Wang Guorui was not interested in reading it carefully.

"Tell me the important core, and then let me listen to it, and let everyone present refer to it!" Wang Guorui said.

Xiao Hongsheng obviously knew the result a long time ago. Although he knew that Wang Guorui definitely didn't have the heart to read them one by one, he still had to write the rewritten documents. This is the so-called official rule. This is not a complete formalism. After all, this kind of national development plan must leave paper documents for future archival investigation, and if something goes wrong, it can be used as a basis for accountability. Such a thing about the development of the country cannot be decided just like that. Paper documents must be left as records, and then they can be counted as historical records, and they are also used as a basis for future accountability. . So although Wang Guorui didn't know how to read carefully one by one, he still had the necessary paper documents.

"When I was the head of the Department of Industry and Commerce, I also had some experience. After we entered the mainland, the territory expanded countless times, and the governance method must be changed. When we were in Taiwan, the territory was small, Moreover, the problems left over from the history of the landlord class are not big, and the power of the landlord class is not considered to be deep-rooted. But in the mainland, the power of the landlord class is all over the world. We simply cannot do it across the board. If it is done across the board, it will inevitably lead to the national system of the entire country Turmoil can even bring about big problems. The so-called governance of a big country is like cooking small fish, we must be cautious and not act too hastily.”

"The minister formulated this plan on future industrial development, which is combined with economic regulation. There is also a plan to develop the industry as a whole."

Xiao Hongsheng first focused on the issue of landlords.

"The landlord is a product of our China since ancient times. He is not only different from the nobles in the West, but also different from the "∈"∈, samurai in Japan. And he is a special phenomenon combined with our imperial examination system and society. , and use the tax-free privileges given by the government and political rights to continuously devour the land, and then use a large number of people as tenants for exploitation. In this process, no actual economic value is generated, and the food is still so much food, just the land It's just a change of ownership."

"But existence is reasonable. And this has lasted for nearly two thousand years. So we can't just make a hasty one-size-fits-all. I think we can try to use economic means to limit the living space of the landlords, and then gradually starve the landlords to death."

"Why are the landlords capable of exploiting a large amount of grain, and even some exorbitant demands that 60% of the grain be handed over to the landlord? But the people have no choice? Since I learned this about the emperor's statement about human resources, I suddenly understood. The emperor said very clearly about human resources. Human resources are actually a kind of resource. Human resources must be regarded as a commodity, and commodities must have their market. Since ancient times, our country has been in troubled times. The population is sparse, that is, human resources Precious time. At that time, almost everyone got land and a stable life. But once the time passed and the population recovered, these people had no culture, no other ability to earn a living, and no industrial development for them. Changing careers. They can only be bound to the land. They cannot change careers."

"But at this time, the land is becoming more and more concentrated, and then landlords are formed. Even at this time, the population of the common people is increasing, and they are all people who can grow food. Therefore, there is obviously a surplus of such human resources, and the human resources who can grow food are obvious. Severe surplus. Once the supply of resources exceeds demand, it will naturally result in low value. The reason why landlords dare to charge such excessive rents, and the people have no bargaining power, is because they know that if they do not do it, there will be many people rushing to come Do."

"And this leads to the exploitation of the people, but there are still many people who cannot obtain the right to farm."

And Xiao Hongsheng made a conclusion at the end, that is to say: "As long as there are too many human resources who can only farm, it will definitely cause the land to be unable to require so many people. And if there are excess human resources, it will inevitably result in no bargaining power. So we have to address this excess of manpower and find a solution."

"The minister's current plan is to build labor-intensive enterprises, and then consume a large number of surplus human resources in the private sector. For example, industries such as textiles and clothing require a large number of people. After the development of these industries, they can absorb A large number of rural people join employment. When those rural people join these labor-intensive industries, a large number of rural people leave the countryside, and the landlords will inevitably be unavailable. At that time, the conditions must be lowered and better conditions should be given to the tenants. "

"And we can develop labor-intensive industries. As long as farmers find that farming for landlords is not as good as working, they will definitely give up the idea of ​​farming for landlords and go to work. At this time, we can force landlords to sell their land at low prices. Sold it to us."

Wang Guorui understood Xiao Hongsheng's plan, but in fact, this plan was nothing more than drawing salary from the bottom of the pot. How can those landlords negotiate terms with those peasants, but the peasants have no bargaining power? In fact, the most important thing is that those farmers lack livelihood skills and can only engage in agricultural work, and there are too many such people, and the supply exceeds demand. Therefore, landlords can easily force them to do the most work and earn the least income. And if these surplus labor can be transferred to those labor-intensive enterprises, then they will definitely be diverted away.

Then I thought to myself that if the landlords had no population to plant, they would definitely be forced to relax the conditions to recruit farmers. But once it develops to a certain level, it will be more profitable to go out to work than to farm for the landlord, which will definitely make those people seek to go out to work instead of farming for the landlord. In this way, those landlords can be economically drawn from the bottom. Once no one is willing to farm for them, then they will definitely be forced to find that they have no way to make money as landlords, and they will inevitably be forced to sell their land at a low price.

This is to dig out the foundation of the landlords from the economic base, and then achieve a means of eliminating the landlord class. This method can absorb a large number of people to join labor-intensive enterprises, and then develop a large amount of economic strength.

"Is this labor-intensive industry necessary?" Wang Guorui asked.

"Your Majesty, yes, it is necessary. Any country has to go through this stage. All countries with relatively few land resources and relatively large population must go through this process. The education level of our population is generally low. , the literacy rate is very low, so they don't have much livelihood skills. We can only let them work in labor-intensive industries, and then let them have a way of making ends meet, instead of being forced to be confined to the land by the landlord Exploitation."

"And if all the landlords are hit, not to mention how **** the process will be, not to mention that even if the land is divided, it may not be enough! Our country has a population of 400 million, how can there be enough land to divide? So we must use various industry to absorb the wealthy rural working population, and then let them integrate into the city as soon as possible, and then starve the rural landlords to death.”

After hearing this, Wang Guorui realized that labor-intensive industries are necessary, especially in a country with a large population like China and a country with a relatively low level of education. Many people in later generations believe that many Chinese enterprises are labor-intensive, with low technological content and unable to create too much profit value. But in fact, maintaining labor-intensive industries is a long-term national condition that China must have. In the long run, the education rate of the population in China will definitely not be high, and the overall quality of the population and labor force cannot be improved in a short period of time.

And if it directly evolves into a technology-intensive industry ~lightnovelpub.net~, a large number of workers with low education levels will inevitably face the risk of unemployment. However, the relatively low cultural level in China is an inevitable phenomenon, and it is not so easy to solve, so they must have the ability to make a living. This is the basis for maintaining the stability of the country. Otherwise, more than half of the country's population would be unemployed. How cold and frightening is this number? A little more than half the unemployment rate, and a revolutionary rebellion is at hand.

Therefore, it is not that the governments of later generations do not want to truly evolve into technology-intensive enterprises, but that too many workers need to be fed. If the real progress reaches those high-tech ages, the quality of the population may not be able to adapt, which will inevitably bring about a crisis.

"Governing a big country is like cooking a small fish. You can't mess around easily! High technology is not something that everyone can play, especially in my country where more than 80% are illiterate, and the population with sufficient education is too small to be competent. High-tech jobs. We must compromise with them, so labor-intensive enterprises are a must, and special openings must be opened to try to bring in those rural laborers, so that their landlords can starve to death , had to take the initiative to compromise with us."

"Well, how do you plan to develop labor-intensive industries?" Wang Guorui asked. (To be continued.) uw
