() Until one day, Liu Fu was fishing on the beach and saw a small fishing boat being stopped by a torpedo boat responsible for security work. The people on the boat were arguing with the guards on the torpedo boat, so he was curious and asked the guards to stop him.
The people on the boat took them to the shore and planned to chat with them.
This is a Taiwanese fishing boat, one of the smallest. The hull of less than ten meters is equipped with a 10-horsepower gasoline engine, which works with a small sail on the boat to provide power to the boat.
There is an old man on the boat. His long-term life at sea has darkened and wrinkled his skin. His age cannot be seen at all. It can only be seen from his incomplete teeth that he is already quite old.
.
"I'm just fishing for some crabs. My cage was dragged here by another boat. I didn't come here on purpose. I came here to fish for my cage." The old man who was brought ashore by the guards saw a few people standing on the shore.
There are also armed guards and
He was a little panicked. He lost the strong energy he had on the boat just now and kept explaining himself. Although Taiwan has lost the habit of being inferior to officials in recent years under the leadership of Liu Fu, but generally older people
People still can't change these habits.
"Brother, don't panic. I'm also the county magistrate. I'm here for a meeting. I was walking around for a while and I happened to bump into you. How about we chat? I'll ask them to help you fish your cage later." Liu
As Fu said this, he handed the other party a cigarette.
"Hey, let me tell you, who from the locals comes here? It's a trivial matter to catch a cage, so I'll smoke one." The old man said that the cage was a trivial matter, but his eyes betrayed him, but this kind of cigarette has
Cigarettes with gold trademarks seem to be more attractive to heroes.
"You live nearby?"
"I can't live here. It's all rocks and sand. I can't build a house or plant any land. I live in the oyster village in the north." The old man took a sip of his cigarette and squatted down on a nearby rock with great enjoyment.
"How many people are there in my brother's family? How can he go to sea alone?"
"Hi, I left early. My son went to join the army. He has been away for almost two years and will be back next year. I was a fisherman before I came to Taiwan. I had nothing to do by myself, so I built a small boat to catch some crabs.
You're a shrimp, you can't get out of the open sea." The old man looked very happy when he talked about his son.
"Oh, this year...?" Liu Fu thought that this old man must be around 50 years old, so why does his son still serve in the military? Although Taiwan has a national military service, it is generally required to serve as a soldier for two consecutive years.
The choice of young people.
"I'm 66 years old. Alas, I didn't get a wife until I arrived in Taiwan. My son was born late and he only turned 20 this year. Brother, you are the county magistrate and you know more than me. Can you tell me how an old man like me can have a son?
, if something happens to my son, I will end my relationship immediately."
"Yes, this rule is not very good. I will bring it up for you when I go to the meeting to see if the service period of my only son can be shortened in the future." Liu Fu felt a little ashamed when he heard the old man's words. When the military service system was originally formulated, he didn't care about it.
Neither he nor the officials of the Ministry of National Defense thought of this issue, or they thought of it, but no one raised it.
"Hey, that's great. I'm just saying it casually. I've been thinking about it every day since my son left." When the old man saw that Liu Fu was serious, he hurriedly tried to smooth things over for himself.
"Brother, when I came to Taiwan, were you used to living here?" Liu Fu wanted to know more about the feelings of ordinary people.
"I came here the year Governor Liu passed away. I am a fellow villager of Governor Liu, and supposedly a fellow villager of President Liu." The old man took another puff on the butt of his cigarette, patted his chest, and vowed to speak frankly.
"But then again, my hometown is too poor. There are only two families in our village who can get a wife. Otherwise, I am already thirty years old and I can't have a wife. Alas... Taiwan is much better than my hometown.
, just plant some land and make a living, and you can support people. Even I, who have never been to the sea, can still support my family by fishing."
"You know that there is a revolution going on in the mainland right now. The emperor has abdicated, and there will be no more, and he will be changed to president. Do you want to go back to your hometown?" Liu Fu continued to ask, and handed the old man a cigarette to help him.
Click on.
"Hey, I'm not going back. When I die, I will ask my son to bury me and my wife together. Why are we going back? There is a brother in my hometown. A few years ago, someone brought me a letter saying that there is a place in my hometown.
The border is full of chaos and war, and it’s not very peaceful either.
.We are just rough people, no better than you who have studied and served as officials. We can eat wherever we can, and we can go wherever we can to survive. To put it bluntly, whoever becomes the emperor or the president, the common people have to eat.
No, no matter how many there are."
On this day, Liu Fu chatted with this old man for more than an hour. In the end, the old man had smoked enough good cigarettes and was worried about his crab pots.
The fishing boat was heading in the direction he expected.
After the hero left, Liu Fu did not continue fishing. Instead, he sat on the rocks alone, smoking a cigarette and thinking a lot.
The old man's words reminded Liu Fu that it doesn't matter what model is used to build the country. As long as everyone is comfortable here, then the country will be successful. On the contrary, no matter how advanced your country and political system are, they are just a trick of a group of politicians.
It's just a game, meaningless to the country.
As for the main body of this country, the common people, although they have no idea what kind of country or political system you belong to, they have a very simple and accurate measurement standard, which is whether they are happy or not.
And they also have a very powerful weapon of resistance, which is their feet. It’s uncomfortable here. I can’t live anymore. I want to find a comfortable place to live. And when the people of your country start to use this weapon,
Does your country’s state system and political system still matter?
After thinking about this, Liu Fu found the heads of various departments of the government to redesign the state system and political system of the new country, and only stipulated one requirement, that is, no matter what kind of system, it must conform to the current situation.
After more than half a month of marathon meetings, when dozens of people, including Liu Fu, were about to collapse, the country's system was finally figured out.
So, after a week of rest and preparation, on April 1, 1915, Liu Fu announced the establishment of the South China Sea Federation in the Presidential Palace. This federation temporarily consisted of Taiwan Island and its surrounding islands and the entire territory of the original Indochina, now Annan and
It is composed of surrounding islands with a total area of 790,000 square kilometers, including nearly 80 ethnic groups and a total of more than 23 million people. April 1st every year is National Day.
The entire South China Sea Federation will be divided into six provinces and one special zone based on geographical location. Taiwan is divided into three provinces: Taipei, Taichung and Tainan, while Annan is re-divided into three provinces: Anbei, Anzhong and Annan.
The three provinces are basically divided according to latitude.
It completely breaks the past national boundaries of Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. In addition to these six provinces, the South China Sea Federation also has a special zone, which is Mindanao. Since it is still nominally leased from the Philippines, it is temporarily classified as
Special Zone.
The capital of the South China Sea Federation is tentatively designated as Taipei. The national flag is a red, yellow and blue striped tricolor. The national anthem is temporarily an athlete's march. Liu Fu has no feeling for music. He happens to have this song on his mobile phone and uses it. He can't go abroad.

In the government of the South China Sea Federation, the president serves as the representative of the highest power and the actual person in power, and has established the position of vice president as an auxiliary to the president. Both the president and the vice president are elected by universal suffrage, with a term of four years, and can only be re-elected for two terms at most.
Under the president and vice president, there are ministers of various departments. Now the South China Sea Federation has established defense, commerce, agriculture, diplomacy, finance, internal affairs, education, transportation, forestry, energy, health services, science and technology, justice, labor, and construction.
There are a total of 15 departments and two directly affiliated bureaus, the Audit Bureau and the General Police Bureau. The heads of these departments are appointed by the president.
