    Chapter 910: There was a debate in the cabinet about the policy towards France. The vast majority of people emphasized that France should be killed so that this country would never be able to turn around.  ¦çFinally, Chen Xie said something: "France with a dictator and France without a dictator are two countries. When the country has a dictator or emperor, it will be very powerful. Otherwise, the country will be abolished.  "Although there is still an emperor in France now, when the aristocratic cabinet takes power and begins to implement "democratic" policies, the future of this country is doomed.  If other people said this, they would definitely be criticized to death, but when Chen Xie said it, everyone thought it made sense. Prime Minister Chen was indeed far-sighted.  In fact, in the current Ming Dynasty, Chen Xie has basically ignored things. Although he is still in the position of Prime Minister of the Cabinet, he rarely speaks on specific affairs.  Chen Xie never cared about how various departments acted or how the parliament quarreled.  After the last bloody incident in Parliament, the Parliament formulated new rules. It is okay to quarrel, but not violent. Anyone who does so will automatically lose their qualifications as a member.  This provision greatly eased the tense atmosphere in the Parliament.  However, in private, the relationship between legislators with different political views is still one of wanting to kill their opponents.  In the current parliament, the largest party is the Ennahda Party, and it is also the party that the media pays the most attention to.  It is the same in any era. Compared with the opposition party, the ruling party will definitely suffer in terms of public opinion.  Those who do things are definitely not as relaxed as those who watch the excitement and find fault. If you don't do things, you won't make mistakes. But in the Ming Dynasty now, if officials don't do things and members don't do things, it means inaction.  The trouble is even greater. If someone grabs this little pigtail, he will basically be hopeless in politics.  This is a very strange phenomenon. This is the current atmosphere in Ming Dynasty.  No one knows when this atmosphere formed.  These were the years when the political arena of the Ming Dynasty underwent the greatest changes, from the Advisory Bureau to the Parliament.  The current system is not very good, but it is legally determined that the imperial power cannot be dictatorial.  No one has been able to do this throughout the ages. The literati of the Ming Dynasty had always wanted to rule from the ground up. When it was realized in this form, many people were still hesitant at first.  But as time went by, I gradually got used to it.  If anyone stands up again and says that Emperor Qiangang is arbitrary.  The ministers must be fighting for their lives with him.  In fact, the most terrifying thing is the rise of capital. Once this thing occupies a dominant position in the era, it will have no rivals at all in this era.  Industrialization started with the textile industry, and when the division of labor became more and more detailed, the people who were most enthusiastic about the implementation of the compulsory education system were not the literati, but the capitalists.  Why do we say this? It¡¯s a very simple reason. Only those who have received education can be considered qualified workers.  An illiterate person can at most be considered a craftsman.  Compulsory education and vocational education.  From the initial official coercion to the later private initiative, what really played a role in the entire process was not the political power, but capital.  People who have studied can produce qualified workers in batches and learn everything faster.  During this period of the Ming Dynasty, there was always a huge gap in the demand for industrial workers.  For the sake of greater interests, capital naturally finds its direction.  Private vocational education is developing rapidly in coastal provinces.  The Ming Dynasty during this period.  There is still a problem, which is the imbalance of economic development between the east and west.  But this is a historical necessity.  There is no good way to change it.  There are too many objective factors that restrict the development of the western region, and they cannot be reversed in the short term.  As the Prime Minister of the Cabinet, Chen Xie does not intend to achieve short-term results.  You can only take your time, even if you are a god, you can't change this.  The government even now does not have the ability to tilt resources, and can only watch the gap between the eastern coast and the western inland continue to widen.  The phone rang.  As one of the status symbols of the Ming Dynasty, the telephone became popular in the capital very quickly.  From the initial five hundred to the current five thousand, Chen Fan has made a lot of money. Global Telecom is the most profitable company in this era.  Chen Xie was sitting on the recliner with his eyes closed and concentrating, with no intention of moving.  The Japanese lolita maid next to me is Tsuruko.  Picking up the phone carefully, Hezi, who was only fourteen years old, was the envy of countless girls for being able to serve Chen Xie.  As the prime minister of the Ming Dynasty, Chen Xie's only maid is probably here. The maids around him are all carefully selected, and each of them must not be older than eighteen years old.  When they are eighteen years old, they are sent out to get married.  If one day Chen Xiang gets things done with great enthusiasm, and Tsuruko is lucky enough to plant the seeds, he will have the opportunity to sign a contract and receive a large amount of property and a regular payment every year.  To ensure that mother and child can have enough food and clothing throughout their lives.  Many people are doing this kind of thing, sending girls to Chen Xie.  But the strange thing is that only the girl Chen Xie sent from Japan Province will accept it, and those sent from other places will be sent back.  Many people have painstakingly studied this hobby in Chen Xiang¡¯s crotch, but the research has naturally yielded no results.  Because of this special phenomenon, members of the Japanese Provincial Council have repeatedly clamored in parliament that Prime Minister Chen was once the king of Japan. This is a victory for the gentleness of Japanese girls.  However, these are of no use. Japan¡¯s current industrial structure isOn the whole, agriculture is still the mainstay. In addition to rice, the main crops are sugar beet cultivation on a large scale. The sugar industry, fishery, and agriculture are now the pillars of Japan's economy.  Japan is the province with the largest number of immigrants, apart from the mainland of Ming Dynasty.  Japan is the province that exports the most women.  Then, there was no more.  Japan, a province with almost no industry, is now most gratified that agriculture is booming and land taxes are decreasing year by year.  This is probably Chen Xiang's only contribution to Japan in the cabinet, which is to constantly encourage Japan's agriculture and fisheries.  How much property does Chen Xie have?  He doesn't even know it, but now a team of thousands of people is managing his funds and industry.  Chen Xie gave away all the things that should be given out, and kept the things that should not be divided, which will exist as a social fund in the future.  Chen Xie does not plan to donate to the country, but will provide help to those who really need help. This matter is already in operation.  "Prime Minister, Prime Minister!" Hezi called softly, and Chen Xie opened his eyes: "What's wrong?" "Someone from the cabinet came and said that contracts from Portugal, the Netherlands, Sweden, and the three countries have arrived and are waiting for you to use the seal.  ¡± This area of ??Xishan is now the territory of the powerful. Chen Xie¡¯s Villa is the largest, covering an area of ??thousands of acres.  As soon as the New Year was over, Chen Xie came here and asked nothing about anything except the war in Europe.  Chen Xie is not in the cabinet, but all departments still appear to be in order.  Apart from the war in Europe, there is nothing that everyone cannot deal with.  Cabinet ministers rejoiced at this behavior.  No one wants to have a gesticulating old immortal sitting above them. He really is an old immortal.  The person in charge of the cabinet now is Deputy Prime Minister Chen Zilong. He is not young anymore and has been supporting us.  The rising star of the cabinet is headed by Kong Shangren. This guy no longer writes "The Peach Blossom Fan". As a descendant of a saint, the cabinet is happy to see his rise.  In today's Ming Dynasty, the knowledge of saints has undergone essential changes.  The articles of Confucius and Mencius were reinterpreted.  Kong Shangren got his start by reinterpreting the articles of saints, and even used the Gongyang theory of the Han Dynasty as an argument.  The saint is definitely not wrong; what is wrong is the understanding of future generations.  Yes, look at how people in the Han Dynasty understood it?  To sum up, the common saying is "Don't be timid, just do it." Without the theories of saints as ideological weapons, how could the Ming Dynasty reach its current territory?  Only through constant foreign wars would the territory of Ming Dynasty be in the situation it is today.  However, people in the Han Dynasty failed to gain wealth from the war. This was a personal problem of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and had nothing to do with the thoughts of the saints.  ??Look at the reinterpreted sage theory. The Ming Dynasty held high the banner of sage thought. While conquering the east and west, it did not delay making money at all. Everyone got rich from war.  How about lessons learned from the past?  Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty served as a warning. A theory that cannot make money through war is not a good theory.  As for why Confucianism has undergone such huge changes, don¡¯t be surprised.  Confucianism has been able to unify China for so many years by providing theoretical basis for the rulers.  People are so skilled at this. As long as the above needs it, no matter whether the saint has said it or not, these people can find it for you from the pile of old papers.  The banner of today's New Confucianism is "investigating things to gain knowledge", which is the essence of the sage's thought.  Dare you say otherwise?  Aren't you afraid of how human we are?  My saliva will drown you!  How else to say that the most terrifying thing in the world is not an animal, but a human being?  People have thoughts and seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. How many people can stick to the "truth" in the face of interests?  Waiting outside is naturally the Cabinet Minister and Minister of Education Kong Shangren. This gentleman has recently been promoting Confucian education in the colonies.  It means sending people to colonies around the world to promote Confucianism.  Of course, the essence of studying things to achieve knowledge is not taught to the natives, but the way of humility and patience is taught.  In a word, be obedient to the people, otherwise I will stab you with a bayonet.  It should be said that his promotion has been fruitful, and he has opened more than one hundred Confucius Institutes around the world.  Recently, I am still planning whether to open a few stores in Europe.  No, after receiving the contract feedback from Europe, I immediately asked with great interest to meet with the Prime Minister.  "Greetings to the Prime Minister!" Kong Shangren saluted with great respect. Chen Xie looked up at him, smiled and greeted him to sit down.  This guy is very interesting. His political enemy is another group of people led by Hou Fangyu.  Let¡¯s put it this way, New Confucianism is also divided into factions. Although they are all under the banner of studying things to achieve knowledge, some are retro-style (representative figure Kong Shangren) and some are new-style (representative figure Hou Fangyu). Both sides are fighting on the theoretical front.  As a matter of fact, they were always competing with each other in the court.  One is the Minister of Education and the other is the Minister of Finance.  Each of his subordinates has a group of brothers, and they will quarrel with each other in the newspaper every now and then.  Interestingly, both of them are backbones and rising stars of the Nima Baath Party.  (To be continued.)
