In southeastern Fujian, just as Ning Ji and the little bitchy dog were embarking on a new journey, the southwest land where he started was also in the midst of a vibrant spring.
The meaning of this spring is not limited to the changes in the four seasons that occur every year, but with the initial success of the 100-village pilot last year, the wheel of land reform is heading towards a wider place on the Chengdu Plain.
This strange and shocking thing is whizzing past in all directions of this plain as time goes by.
In each village, the land reform was pushed to the predetermined position step by step. Some people were confused and doubtful, and some did not believe it, and then resisted. The onlookers were first indifferent, then shocked, and then felt lost in disbelief.
Some people cheered and some wrote poems to welcome the arrival of a new era.
Such a new era is not a simple concept, but an inspiring outline. In the spring of March in Chengdu, countless concepts are being sorted out more concretely and thrown out by the "new cultural people" in the public opinion field of this spring.
came out, and the fierce confrontation was more violent than ever before.
Only then did people discover that in the past ten years or so, the core members of the Chinese Army led by Ning Yi have continuously conducted "paper talk"-style cultural deductions to achieve results, whether it is equality or the four peoples, or they are all weird and weird.
Humanistic assumptions have been sharpened and bullets filled at the moment when the "land reform" was officially implemented. People have been able to deduce various great future prospects based on the reality of this huge change, and each of them is immature.
The "new cultural people" in China, in their excitement, constantly began to enrich the specific theoretical system.
Any monotonous concepts and so-called great prospects are actually powerless in the face of systematic Confucian theory and thousands of years of practice samples. People can clearly see what are the various reasons why these monotonous theories cannot be realized.
Therefore, during the great discussions in the past few years, there were actually various researchers of Chinese military theory who were gradually convinced by the knowledgeable Confucian scholars from outside. But at this moment, after more than ten years of preparation, the theoretical frameworks involving different directions began to be combined with practice
At the same pace, the system began to confront the system, and the utopian theories and prospects began to be shaped by reality.
Then the strange giant began to stretch its body from the old earth, the soil and mountains were pushed away, and faint thunder filled the wilderness.
In the eyes of various Confucian scholars and observers, the regicide Ning Yi, who had been benevolent to others for several years, finally began to show his arrogant imagination and powerful power that overwhelmed the entire era.
If his desperate regicide on the Golden Palace more than ten years ago, his arrogance to destroy Confucianism, and even his feat of defeating the Jurchen West Route Army in the Chengdu Plain are still within the imagination of people, then this time
The implementation of "land reform" is really a crazy act that goes beyond the imagination of all Confucian high-level officials - there will be people in history who do such things, but almost without exception it will turn into a carnival of destruction without creation, and there will be no rationality.
People will never do it easily, and no matter how they do it, it will end in collapse in a short period of time.
But this time, it didn't.
The Chinese Army pushed such reforms to every village on the list with unprecedented organizational speed. It abandoned the cooperation of local villagers and reshaped the appearance of every village on the road like a razor. It not only pushed away
The old resistance, even during the advancement of this change, began to recruit new people and conduct training and education on the Four People's Thoughts. This practice began to inject real "fantasy" into the "fantasy" of the past ten years in public opinion centers everywhere.
s life.
Small-scale confrontations and fighting are breaking out frequently. In Chengdu, countless people began to make suggestions to the Congress of the Chinese Army and even Ning Yi himself. Even a group of old Confucianists "knocked on the door" in the government square to narrate the coming events.
This kind of interests-they no longer care about the previous "incompatible relationship" with the Chinese army.
But Ning Yi remained unmoved, and the figure displayed by his will and strength was shrouded under the entire southwest sky at this moment, piercing the stake of power into the ground.
The new theoretical framework will not destroy the old framework, and even now that practice has just begun, it cannot be said to have the upper hand; and relying on the violence of the military to promote land reform step by step and absorb new people cannot be achieved within a few years.
Within a period of time, the huge root system of Xiangxian culture was truly destroyed. But at least at this moment, the thoughts and structures of the four people have been injected into the soul, the skeleton is wrapped with flesh and skin, its heart begins to beat, and the blood circulates
, and under its feet, the real roots with vitality have begun to penetrate into the ground, and they have truly begun to compete for nutrients with the huge force of rural sages.
Huge changes will affect every form of existence in society. In Chengdu, the confrontation between old Confucianism and new Confucianism is just a derivative wave at the cultural level. In the settlements of migrant workers everywhere, they have lost their hometown and signed a new contract.
People who have sold their bodies began to inquire about the possibility of settling in the southwest or joining the Chinese army and fighting out to obtain land. This kind of expectation and enthusiasm has set off a wave of enthusiasm. Correspondingly, around opening factories in Chengdu or
On the one hand, the investment gentry began to worry about the changes in the situation; on the other hand, they were already actively looking for various opportunities amidst such changes.
Just like "Lin Chu" Lin Qiu, who currently holds a high position in the Ministry of Commerce, he has been experiencing the impact of waves of corrosion in recent times.
Lin Jingmei and others have recently been trying to make proposals under the guidance of Li Shishi to cooperate with the land reform to attract migrant workers as the backbone; and after two busy days of getting married during the Spring Festival, her husband Peng Yueyun had already been assigned to an unknown place by Ning Yi
Where to go on a mission? I haven’t seen him for more than two months.
In the mansion near the Maha Pond, Ning Yi was so busy that he had no time to write articles and curse people in the newspaper.
The landlords in the outside world who are complaining about their interests being violated, and the old scholars who are knocking on the ground out of fear cannot see him now, and he has no time to pay attention to these various individual voices. Countless data are being collected at the center every day.
Ning Yi remained expressionless most of the time, pretending to be sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, but his mind wandered more often and sometimes he lost his temper.
Although he did not have personal contact with the old Confucians outside and did not listen to complaints of grievances, Ning Yi still read newspapers every day. For a period of time, he especially liked to read the prospects of various "new cultural figures" on reform. He saw more than ten
The various arguments discussed over the years were constantly enriched and thrown out, and gradually this type of newspaper would be piled on top. After reading it for a few days, he became furious, replaced the person in charge of the Secretariat, and then added
I took out various newspaper articles that denounced land reform and read them for several days.
The progress of land reform has expanded from the 100 villages under his direct control to larger areas. Nearly 10,000 basic members as the backbone and 1,000 working groups will next complete the southwest region within two years.
There is not much possibility of problems with the innovation and military support of tens of thousands of villages, but these one thousand working groups have gradually begun to escape his sight. Although overcorrection will inevitably lead to various deviations and problems, but
Every problem that arises in the work group may become the root cause of future necrosis.
After more than ten years of accumulation, we have barely built a framework from a cultural perspective and established a practical cycle from the grassroots level. It is gratifying to implement it, but in the next few years, once a big problem occurs at the practical level, the entire reform framework
It may still turn into a sandcastle on the beach. Although it is said that the seeds of thought have fallen, before it matures from the practical level, every twists and turns will still be at the cost of the annihilation of millions of people or even an era.
.
At this moment, he actually felt fear and anxiety in his heart. Of course, on the surface, such emotions were no longer suitable to be shown to anyone.
Occasionally, there will be news from the outside world, such as the Western Expedition of the Jin Dynasty; various small actions of Dai Mengwei and Zou Xu; the advancement and changes of the Fair Party; the bumps in the small court in the southeast or the actions of the Jin people. In the past, he would report these
I treat it as entertainment, but recently I just give it a brief glance and leave it to the departments below, asking them to do things step by step.
Occasionally when I am lost in thought, I feel a lot more emotional about "Why bother?"
In the Chengdu Plain in March, in addition to the gradual expansion of the pace of land reform, more realistic spring plowing is also underway in sunny or rainy days. In the calm land, people who are far away from the war are generally living a stable life, while in the southwest
Wenpu County, where Tang Minjie was sent for more than half a year, experienced the most peaceful and fulfilling period in his life.
It's like a dream.
After more than half a year of work, he is now considered an old man at the 223 Agricultural Research Institute. His daily work is still simple: collecting feces outside Wenpu County in the early morning and giving it to some nearby children or a few latecomers.
The woman would do some literacy lessons, then return to the research institute near Xiaoye Village for fertilization, and then try her best to return to the dung station in Wenpu County before night.
During this period, perhaps because Peng Yueyun came to talk to him several times, or because of the impact of something as big or small as his opening of a literacy class at the dung station, Chen Cirang, the director of the institute, asked him to
He talked several times, tried to transfer him to a cleaner position, and also thought about doing some publicity for his literacy class, but Tang Minjie refused as gently as possible.
After living there for a period of time, through a friend introduced by Peng Yueyun, some newspapers from Chengdu could also be purchased in Wenpu County. Tang Minjie spent most of his small—but almost useless—salary expenses in Wenpu County.
In this way, through the newspaper, he can clearly see the drastic changes in the outside world. After reading the newspaper every day, he will read and explain various news from the outside world to the children in the literacy class the next morning.
"By understanding the world, you will become more useful people in the future."
And because of his behavior, people occasionally spread rumors in private: The guy who collects excrement at the excrement station might be some kind of big shot outside.
Of course, even if someone comes to get close to him, Tang Minjie, who is not teaching, does not show any characteristics of a "big shot" in his interactions. Although he will wash up a little while reading books and newspapers to the children, most of the time
He was slightly hunched over his exhausted body, and would occasionally dig his bare feet in the mud. Due to his long-term collection of feces, his body also had a faint odor. Ordinary people could rarely get along or talk to him for a long time.
He Qing, the Yexiang woman who first proposed teaching to him, had shown a good impression of him for a period of time. She once offered to starch and mend his clothes, and once gave him a pair of cloth shoes and several items that he personally received.
Insole, but after Tang Minjie clearly expressed his reasoning, the relationship between the two parties returned to a certain distance. He Qing did not understand where Tang Minjie's resistance came from, but there was originally a relationship between people.
It's extremely difficult to understand someone so deeply, and the other person's conditions aren't particularly good, so she doesn't really act shameless or arrogant.
Spring plowing in the southwest has started in February, and every household is very busy. Land reform from the outside world is the most frequently mentioned topic in everyone's mouth during this period. There are also landowners who are full of anxiety. In mid-February, even
There have been some bad conflicts and murders that caused uproar, but they are still far away from Tang Minjie and others.
By the end of February, a small working group split from the original 100 villages and came to a small village east of Wenpu County. It was said that the steps of land reform had already begun, and many Yexiang women secretly went there.
After waiting and watching, I came back and told Tang Minjie that the daughter-in-law of a certain landlord's family had hanged herself and was finally rescued. In fact, the reputation of this family is usually pretty good...
All kinds of bits and pieces of information, mixed with all kinds of news from newspapers every day, made Tang Minjie feel excited again in the calmness. The waves of the times were warming his broken heart. He occasionally thought of the Han people far away in the north.
Slave, their cries sounded in his mind, and he would think of Chen Wenjun again, and he would think: "Mrs. Chen, can you know what is happening here, can you feel the warmth here..." in response to his
, but there is only the howling and biting north wind in my mind.
In early March, the land reform process in the villages near Wenpu seemed to be a bit intense. In Wenpu County, soldiers from the Chinese Army came once or twice. This kind of thing is of course not surprising. Landlords in the world are not all bad people.
Even in many places, small landowners with bad reputations cannot survive. These things are structural injustices. When they develop to a deeper level, they can only be broken to form a new cycle. The Huaxia Army's response to
The land reform this time was not brutally fought to the end, and some regulations for redemption and negotiation were arranged. However, for some people who feel that it is not easy to accumulate land, there will of course be situations where they are unwilling to accept it no matter what. But if at a fixed time
If the negotiation fails, they will most likely be crushed to death.
Tang Minjie didn't have much feelings about these things.
In this way, on the evening of March 13th, when he was driving the dung truck back to Wenpu County, he felt a different atmosphere. In the distance, there seemed to be a commotion, and the law enforcement officers from the county came out.
The team was searching the surrounding areas, and there were even men with armbands on the roadside, who were vigilantly observing pedestrians leaving Wenpu County on the road, and briefly questioned some people.
As I passed by, I overheard a conversation.
"What happened……"
"... Mr. Qiu from Erqing Village stabbed someone with a knife. I heard he killed someone who came down from the working group..."
"Killed someone?" Hearing what these people said, Tang Minjie frowned and curiously went over to ask for the first time. After that, he didn't get an affirmative answer. It was probably certain that Erqing Village had another
Disputes broke out and murders occurred.
At this time, the sun was setting. Tang Minjie returned to the dung collection station with the dung truck, untied the mules, and did some simple cleaning. When it got dark, another team came over with torches on the road to search, and someone knocked open the door.
After entering the door, Tang Minjie was led by a Chinese soldier who he knew at a glance had been on the battlefield. He was accompanied by a security guard. After questioning and confirming his identity, he asked if there was any special movement in the evening.
Perhaps because both parties belonged to the Chinese military organization, when the entourage was asked to go in for a general search, they saluted Tang Minjie and asked him if he had been on the front line.
Tang Minjie shook his head and said no.
The group searched it and left.
It was almost dark at this time. Tang Minjie locked the door, then took a knife, moved a chair, and sat down on the high platform next to the dung truck for easy dumping. All his movements after closing the door were silent.
Breathless, I sat there looking at the stars and the moon in the sky, like a ghost. After a while, there was movement in the dung bucket, and a figure quietly pushed open the lid of the dung bucket and leaned out.
Turning around, he saw the figure sitting on a nearby chair and his knife hanging on the ground.
"Come out."
A tired voice sounded.
"Tell me why you shouldn't die."
This is a small episode that happened half a year after Tang Minjie returned to Southwest China...
Soon there will be some movement.
Just like the insignificant little waves in a big era...
