Chapter 258 Rumors spread
That night, Chongzhen had a dream, dreaming that Daming and Li Zicheng's Dashun successfully reorganized the assets and established the "Daming Shareholding Republic". He became the chairman of the board of directors and president of the Ming Dynasty (ceo), and Li Zicheng became the chairman of the Ming Supervisory Board. The two chairmen happily toasted at the celebration, chatting and laughing, and fireworks were lit in the sky, and the gongs and drums under the audience were loud, and the people cheered, and the jubilant music sounded one by one, and there was a harmonious and passionate scene everywhere, which was simply fascinating.
I woke up from the dream and realized that it was Nan Ke’s dream!

The next afternoon, Chongzhen saw the summary of the debate between Longkongge on "Reference News" about "Unified China by the shareholding system". It is said that the guest topic last night was originally about the better, which is railway train, steam car or gasoline car. It was just because gasoline cars had made three prototypes to run in Nanjing. Longkongge thought this should be a hot topic, so he chose the guest topic that night. However, when the audience chose the time to argue freely, they all chose to focus on "
The joint-stock system unifies China" started a debate. Zhou Junli wanted to bring the topic to other directions more than once, but he failed. In the end, he had to respect the wishes of the audience. After all, Long Kong Pavilion's self-definition rule was to freely argue and let the audience choose the topic. As long as it was not prohibited by the court, it could be debated. Since "Reference News" published articles on "The joint-stock system unifies China", it was naturally not a prohibited issue. So that night, the listeners of Long Kong Pavilion had an unusual controversy around this issue.
What is published in the newspaper has been edited and the essence of the matter has been removed and the essence of the matter is naturally the essence of the debate:
The righteous side said that the shareholding system unified China has many benefits. One is to avoid civil wars and chaos. If China is unified by military means, it will be squandered military pay and poison the local area, the economy will stagnate, the fields will be abandoned, and the death of compatriots will be caused by foreign enemies. The shareholding system unified China is a peaceful reunification and a concern for the welfare of the people. It is a benevolent and righteous act. The world is very lucky and the people are very lucky.
The opposing side stated that the so-called unification of China by shareholding is a heresy and is not taken by wise men. Since ancient times, there has been no two masters in heaven. Li Zicheng started his business by robbers, burning, killing, and doing everything. How can such bandits be compared with the emperor of the Ming Dynasty? The world is the world of Emperor Zhu of the Ming Dynasty. If bandits can also share the world with the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, then all the cultures will be eliminated, and there is no place for "benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness" to exist! Therefore, this move is definitely not feasible.
The supporters of the positive side said: The shareholding system unifies China, of course, is the controlling stake of the Ming Emperor. The Ming Emperor still controls the political situation. Li Zicheng only enjoys 10% or 20% of the equity. Rather than participating in court politics, it is better to just let him enjoy wealth and glory. This is similar to Zhao Kuangyin's release of military power with a cup of wine. The so-called "great events" are not limited to minor details. Although Li Zicheng was a traitor before, if he participated in the shareholding system, he would follow the general trend of the world and make up for his mistakes. It can still be said that his achievements are in the country. Therefore, it is not wrong for Li Zicheng to enjoy equity and even enjoy corresponding positions.
The opposing side refuted, saying: It is wishful thinking that Li Zicheng will accept 10% or 20% of the equity. If he wants 340% or even 50% of the equity, then how can he deal with it? Even if he accepts 20% of the equity, Li Zicheng proposes that the Emperor of Ming Dynasty should be the chairman of the board of directors, and Li Zicheng wants to make a prime minister, so what if he is in charge!
-------
Zhengfang: Under Li Zicheng's rule, people's livelihood was in decline, and he still had a huge debt of more than 25 million taels of Mongolian government bonds, which would be great if he could account for 10% and 20% of the equity.
Opponent: If Li Zicheng accepts 100% of the shares, his generals, such as Liu Zongmin, will definitely want shares. What if it does?
-------
Zheng Fang: After the Ming Dynasty implemented the shareholding system, there will be a shareholders' meeting, a board of supervisors, and a board of directors. They will check and balance each other. They will surely clarify the rule of administration and promote the great rule of the world in Ming Dynasty. If the interests are related, there will be motivation, the interests are related, and there will also be supervision. In this way, great rule of the world is expected.
Opposing side: On the contrary, the result of checks and balances between multiple parties will be to discuss everything without deciding, and everything will be delayed, so how can we talk about the great governance of the world!
-------
After seeing these specious debates, you can't convince me on both sides, and I can't convince you either. Anyway, each has its own reasons. The literati of the Ming Dynasty advocated empty talk, which made the free debate of Long Kongge always a grand event that attracted scholars, and "shareholding unified China" undoubtedly provided scholars with a gossip topic. Chongzhen smiled bitterly and threw the newspaper aside.
Annan implemented a shareholding system, and its influence was not limited to the Ming Dynasty and Annan. After this incident was spread to Japan, the Japanese did not expect that the Japanese also took a fancy to the magic weapon of the shareholding system and were promoting the shareholding system transformation in Ryukyu in full swing. Intelligence personnel from Japan and Ryukyu sent back the relevant information through Feige's letter. It is obvious that the Japanese pirated the intellectual property rights of Annan's shareholding system transformation basically copied the version of Annan's shareholding system transformation. In the Japanese plan, Japan accounted for 51% of the Ryukyu shares, and the others were the Ryukyu kings and ministers. In this regard, although the Ryukyu kings and ministers were reluctant, they had no choice but to delay the matter.
This matter must be countered. One way is to use force. However, the conditions in all aspects are not mature, and it is not the time to use force. The second way is to develop a Ming version of the Ryukyu joint-stock plan to deal with the Japanese version of the Ryukyu joint-stock plan. Fortunately, there are some members of the Ryukyu royal family who are exiled in the Ming Dynasty. You can first have a Ming version of the "Ryukyu Shared Republic". With this move, it will lay the groundwork for the restoration of Ryukyu in the future. Many exiled governments in later generations eventually restore the motherland, and there are many successful cases to follow.
In the next two days, Chongzhen made some arrangements about Ryukyu. After thinking that the arrangement was almost the same, he sent envoys to Japan and Ryukyu. To Japan, it was nothing more than to express the protests of the Ming Dynasty. Japan wanted to use the Japanese-controlled Ryukyu joint-stock reform to make Ryukyu escape from the vassal status of the Ming Dynasty. This was completely futile. The Ming Dynasty once again asked Japan to withdraw its troops from Ryukyu unconditionally. The Ming Dynasty would support the Ryukyu exiled government in exile in the Ming Dynasty to restore Ryukyu. The envoys who went to Ryukyu may not have seen the Ryukyu royal family at all, but the Ming Dynasty's edict had to be sent to the island. Knowing that the Japanese would intercept the edict, the edict was for the Japanese to see it.
The only thing about Ryukyu is this way for the time being. As soon as Chongzhen was free, he would find Wang Youqing or Du Jun to play chess as usual. Unexpectedly, the eunuch of Chongzhen went to find Wang Youqing, but Wang Youqing had not arrived for a long time. Chongzhen played chess with Du Jun. Du Jun was too aggressive and was particularly dedicated to playing chess. Chongzhen was naturally not a match for Du Jun in terms of strength, and soon fell into a disadvantage. Although there were still some disputes on the chessboard, it was almost impossible to turn the tables. Chongzhen was pondering whether to admit defeat. Wang Youqing happened to be here.
Chongzhen threw the chess piece in his hand and said:
"I lost this game of chess. Hello, Aiqing Wang, why did you come?"
Wang Youqing quickly explained:
"I went to Qingfeng Mingyue Tower for tea. I was about to report to the emperor that rumors spread very much."
Chongzhen asked:
"Oh, what is the rumor? Let's hear it."
Wang Youqing said:
"It is rumored among the market that the emperor is considering talking to Li Zicheng about the unification of China with the shareholding system. The rumors are centered around this. Some say that the emperor has ordered people to formulate several plans and then negotiate with Li Zicheng. What's ridiculous is that the market is full of slight and eye-catching, and even there are many versions of personnel arrangements after the unification."
"Oh, tell me."
"I dare to tell the rumors. If there is any inappropriateness, please forgive me!"
"Tell me, after that, it's no big deal. I won't be punished for my words."
"A saying is that after unification, the emperor has been both part-time and personally served as the chairman of the board and the prime minister. Li Zicheng served as the vice chairman of the board and Niu Jinxing served as the vice premier."
When Chongzhen heard this, who was fucking frightened and said, Niu Jinxing was also the vice premier? This guy was so stupid! Then he thought that this was just a rumor, so he said:
"Wen Tiecheng reported to me that the rumor that I am good as the chairman of the board of directors after the traditional Chinese tradition, but the position of Prime Minister was assigned to Li Zicheng. Haha!"
Wang Youqing also laughed and said with a smile:
"Some people also say that Li Zicheng also wants to be the chairman, and the position of chairman of the Supervisory Board was left to Li Zicheng. The Prime Minister is Shi Kefa, but the Vice Premier is not Niu Jinxing. Li Zicheng will definitely recommend Liu Zongmin."
"Oh. Haha! It's so ridiculous!"
"Some people also say that the Prime Minister is probably Fang Yizhi. The Emperor values the young Fang Yizhi. The Prime Minister is the one who is the Prime Minister. However, there are many vice prime ministers. For the balance of power, Liu Zongmin, Niu Jinxing, and Song Xianke may all be able to go to the Ming Dynasty. There must be two to three more. Shi Kefa and Ma Shiying may not be able to be the Prime Minister, but he is far stronger than Liu, Niu, and Song."
After hearing this, Chongzhen thought that the gossip spirit of the people of the Ming Dynasty was really amazing, and the rumors were all over the place. According to Wen Tiecheng's report, some people even said that the Prime Minister he had decided was Wang Chengen, which was really nonsense. But there were still so many people who were keen on spreading rumors and believing rumors! I don't know what the rumors would look like when they were spreading.
Chongzhen shook his head and said:
"I'm thinking, if Li Zicheng heard these rumors, I don't know what he would think."
Chapter completed!
