"I want to go out and have a look. It's snowing so hard, I'm afraid many people can't bear it." Zhang Anle said and changed into a cotton jacket and a coat.Put on a cotton hat, gloves, and a scarf.After wrapping himself tightly, he put on his leather boots and walked out of the room.

Walking to the front yard, the guards were busy clearing the snow.Seeing Zhang Anle coming out, they quickly saluted Zhang Anle.

"Cough, cough, with such heavy snow, go back to your room and rest until the snow stops." Zhang Anle opened his mouth, the cold wind poured into his mouth, and couldn't help coughing twice.

"We are also idle. Let's sweep it now, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with it when there is more snow and it freezes." The leading captain said.

"Okay, you guys get busy first, I'll go out and have a look." Zhang Anle waved at them and walked out of the gate.

Zhang Anle is going out.The guards must follow.They had already arranged the duty list, and immediately three people followed Zhang Anle out.

In addition to the gate, it is busier than home, and there are many people sweeping snow on the street.The place where Zhang Anle lives is either rich or expensive, and every household has servants.They got up early and started to sweep the snow, but it's still snowing heavily, so what they did was basically useless.As soon as the front feet were swept, the snow fell again on the back feet.

Take a few steps down the street.The wind outside is much stronger than at home.Walking was a little unsteady, and Zhang Anle gave up the idea of ​​continuing to play when he saw this situation.He greeted several guards who followed him, and returned home.

In the afternoon, the snow gradually became smaller.Zhang Anle tried the phone, but there was still no sound. Such heavy snow even made communication a problem.

The next day Zhang Anle woke up and saw that the snow had cleared and the sky had cleared.Zhang Anle tried the phone and still couldn't get through. After a simple breakfast, Zhang Anle rushed to the executive government.

Fortunately, the executive government's telephone was connected, and Zhang Anle dialed the Beijing Municipal Government's telephone number.When the person who answered the phone learned that it was Zhang Anle's call, he was a little agitated and had to say it several times before explaining the situation clearly.Lin Changmin was not in the office and went outside to inspect the situation of the snow disaster.

It seems that Lin Changmin attaches great importance to this matter, and Zhang Anle feels relieved now.However, he was still worried about the lack of manpower in Beijing, so he called the direct division stationed outside Beijing and asked Zhang Qifeng to lead the troops into the city to wait for Lin Changmin's orders.

At noon, Lin Changmin called Zhang Anle back.

"This time the snow disaster is very big! When we organized the snow clearing in the morning, we found several corpses. They were all beggars on the street. There are also some people whose houses are too dilapidated and crushed by the snow. These people probably also More bad luck than good luck." Lin Changmin said on the other end of the phone.

"How is the snow clearing outside now? Are there enough people?" Zhang Anle had expected what Lin Changmin said, and he was not surprised to hear what he said at this time.

"The snow on the main road has almost been cleared, the direct division is in place, and there are enough manpower. It's just that the money for the disaster relief has not yet been received." Lin Changmin replied at the other end.

"There should be a lot of money left over from the National Day ceremony last time. You can use all of this money for disaster relief. If you don't have enough money, you can report to the State Council. In addition, we must strengthen patrols and prohibit price gouging in the market. Prepare more food and coal. , to ensure that the people can eat. Take the time to organize people to dig out the people buried in the snow as soon as possible, and save as much as possible. The collapsed houses should be tidied up as soon as possible. This is just winter, and the colder The day is still to come! If there is anything you need to report to the State Council, you must do a good job in disaster relief." Zhang Anle knew that there was a lot of money left over from the National Day ceremony, so he directly transferred all the money to Lin Changmin, and he ordered a few more Issues requiring attention.

"Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, I will take care of these things right away." After receiving Zhang Anle's promise, Lin Changmin seemed to regain his energy, and said loudly on the other end of the phone.

In the afternoon, Zhang Anle walked around the street and found that there were food distribution offices set up by the government at several intersections.The snow on the road has also piled up into big snowdrifts, and from time to time you can see the police or people on the troop patrolling.

Zhang Anle went to several grain stores to inquire, and the price of grain did not rise.Zhang Anle knew that Lin Changmin had really worked hard, so he could finally feel relieved this time.

A week later, the snow on the street has almost melted.The situation of this snowstorm is also clear. According to Lin Changmin’s statistics, more than 80 beggars died of freezing on the roadside, more than 2000 houses collapsed, causing more than 1000 deaths, and thousands of others suffered from frostbite to varying degrees.

"Now the houses have started to be repaired, but many people's families were buried in the snow. This is when we repaired a lot of dilapidated houses during the National Day celebration, otherwise the number of deaths and injuries in this snow disaster would have doubled." Lin Changmin My heart is very heavy. After all, Beijing is under his rule, and he has a great responsibility on his shoulders.

"The sudden snowstorm has really tested our ability to work. I am gratified that you have withstood the test. You have done a good job in your work. As the saying goes, you can learn from a fall, and everyone can learn from this kind of thing." I don't know when it will happen. But once it happens, people will die. Whether our government departments can quickly and effectively perform their functions is the problem we should think about and solve. Usually make more preparations and make plans. In the event of an accident This is what we should do." Zhang Anle reassured Lin Changmin, and at the same time put forward requirements for future work.

"Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, I will draw lessons from this snowstorm." Lin Changmin didn't expect Zhang Anle to make such a request, and quickly promised.

"What I'm talking about is empty words and clichés. The real work is for you to do." Zhang Anle said with a smile.

"The commander-in-chief's speech is very instructive. We must study and understand it seriously." The chief of the Senate in Beijing flattered without losing the opportunity.

"Yes, yes, we must study and understand it seriously." Others did not dare to lag behind and echoed one after another.

"Okay, I have other things to do, so I'll leave first, you guys go ahead." Zhang Anle said, got up and left the small auditorium.

This time the Beijing Municipal Government held a summary report on the snow disaster. After learning about it, Zhang Anle went to the meeting and said a few words.Unexpectedly, now he has become a person full of empty words, Zhang Anle murmured in his heart.

When watching the news in the previous life, Zhang Anle always hated watching all kinds of meetings of leaders at all levels, talking about empty words, clichés, and nonsense.Now that he was standing in this position, he found that what he said was empty words, clichés, and nonsense.

After the snow disaster has passed, the next thing to do is to prepare for the national congress of all walks of life.Gu Weijun has been busy with this matter since he came back from Harbin.During the snowstorm, he had to focus on disaster relief again, and this time he finally had time to study the meeting carefully.

Chapter 6 Representatives from all walks of life

Gu Weijun actually disagreed with Zhang Anle's National Congress of Representatives from All walks of life.He thinks that Zhang An is a bit too idealistic. Although everyone will shout the slogans of freedom and equality, and shout them very loudly, it is impossible to achieve equality in society.

For example, in this meeting, representatives from all walks of life, according to Bao Weijun's understanding, are workers, farmers, merchants, soldiers, and soldiers, which is the minimum.But when I found Lin Changmin and inquired about it, when the meeting of representatives from all walks of life was held in the northwest, I realized that it was really a representative from all walks of life.There are even those who sing operas, do small businesses, and even those who do nothing but beg for food.Gu Weijun has really learned a lot this time. I'm afraid Sun Yat-sen didn't have such a plan at the beginning. Let the beggars participate in politics. Does he know what politics is?

No, if the national congress of all walks of life is really held in the same way as the congress of all walks of life in the Northwest District, it would not be a joke.When Gu Weijun thought of himself having a meeting with beggars to discuss how to build the country, he felt uncomfortable all over his body.Unable to say, he came to the executive government and wanted to have a good chat with Zhang Anle.

"You came here just for this question?" Zhang Anle asked, blinking his eyes after hearing Gu Weijun's explanation of his purpose. []

"Yes, I think it's a good idea to hold a meeting of representatives from all walks of life, but there should be a limit to the representatives of all walks of life. You don't need to graduate from a university or be a scholar, but you must at least know how to read. If you can't read two big characters, you can come to the meeting. Isn't this a joke?" Seeing that Zhang Anle didn't care, Gu Weijun stood up anxiously from the sofa and said.

"Haha, don't get excited, sit down and talk slowly." Seeing him like this, Zhang Anle couldn't help laughing.I didn't expect Gu Weijun to lose his composure sometimes, and now he doesn't have the calm look on the negotiating table.

Gu Weijun also felt that he had lost his composure, and sat down a little embarrassed.

"I can understand what you mean. Mr. Yang and Mayor Lin also raised the issue you mentioned when they were in the Northwest. They thought it was a serious meeting to find some local celebrities and gentry, and then some experts and scholars. Look. But if this is the case, it is not called a meeting of representatives from all walks of life. Of course, it was too equal in the Northwest, and some beggars also participated in the meeting. But that meeting was very successful. Everyone came from different industries. The questions raised were also All kinds of things are good for us. Only by discovering more problems can we better understand the needs of all walks of life. Our government can better serve the people." Zhang Anle tried to use the Northwest District's successful Case to convince Gu Weijun.

Zhang Anle knew why Gu Weijun lost his composure. Back then, Yang Du and Lin Changmin thought this matter was something he had discussed many times.Gu Weijun and others did not understand Zhang Anle, probably because of the deep-rooted class concept of scholars, farmers, businessmen and businessmen in China.They are not willing to share political power with the lower classes, I am afraid this is the limitation of the legendary history.

It's just that Zhang Anle insisted on his own opinion at the time, and the two of them didn't want to have any estrangement from Zhang Anle because of this matter, so they followed Zhang Anle's wishes.But now that Gu Weijun also raised this question, Zhang Anle couldn't help thinking whether his thinking was too naive, or their thinking was too backward.

"I can understand that you promote the political idea of ​​equality and democracy for everyone in us, but with all due respect, this idea is not suitable for China today. Our country has been ruled by emperors for more than 2000 years. What the people need is not a complete democracy, Equal social and political environment. They are still used to having a strong leader to lead. If they want to be democratic and equal, it is not a good thing for this country. Now even the West is not completely democratic, at least I think I have never heard of any country whose parliamentary representatives have real lower-class people. We want to listen to the voice of the lower class, and there is no need to contact the lower class. It’s like we want to eat but don’t have to do it ourselves. If we really want to achieve a relatively democratic In politics, we only need to ensure the election of members is democratic. The people vote for the members they trust, and these members will naturally listen to the opinions of all walks of life for the votes of the people." Gu Weijun obviously meant to make reasonable use of the existing parliamentary system, Instead of holding a meeting of representatives from all walks of life.

"I think judging from the current situation in our country, it is too difficult to achieve universal suffrage. Even provincial elections are difficult to achieve universal suffrage. But without universal suffrage, it is difficult to ensure that members of parliament can truly participate in and discuss state affairs objectively. Besides, ordinary people now The enthusiasm for participating in politics is not high, and there is no such awareness. Not to mention the common people, even the congressmen have no real concept of participating in politics. The farce of Cao Kun bribing the president two years ago made people laugh and cry. Under such circumstances Relying too much on the parliamentary system can easily cause it to be manipulated by a certain class. Maybe in ten or twenty years, it will be better for us to implement the parliamentary system." Zhang Anle does not deny the parliamentary system, but he thinks it is not suitable for the present of China.

"I think we can now implement two ways of inviting representatives and provincial recommendation. We can invite representatives we think can participate in the meeting, and then each province will give a certain number of places, and they will recommend representatives. We can invite representatives to try our best. Allow more people with the ability to participate in politics to participate in politics. At the same time, you can also limit the number of people from all walks of life, so that it not only reflects the representatives of all walks of life, but also prevents the level of representatives from being uneven." Gu Weijun thought for a while and proposed, he especially emphasized that there are A person capable of participating in politics.

"This is also a good idea. In fact, representatives from all walks of life are just a collective term. If there are thousands of representatives from all walks of life, it will not stop it. I mean, the main social classes. Workers, farmers, merchants, small handicraftsmen , Landlords, intellectuals, soldiers, ethnic minorities, and social celebrities, these important social classes must be represented." Zhang Anle knew that it would be difficult to change Gu Weijun's thinking in a short time.Zhang Anle is not a stubborn person, so he agreed with Gu Weijun's opinion.

"Okay, I'll think about this matter after I go back, fix the number of people and distribute it to the provinces, let them submit the list first, and we can decide the list of invitations." Gu Weijun saw Zhang Anle heard his opinion very happy.

The two chatted for a while, and Gu Weijun got up to leave.

After sending Gu Weijun away, Zhang Anle began to reflect, it seemed that he was indeed a little too naive.I can no longer use the thinking of future generations to look at the current China. If this continues, I am afraid that it will not benefit the country or the individual. We still have to consider the problem according to the actual national conditions.It seems that there is a long way to go to implement democratic politics in China, Zhang Anle couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Chapter 7 beat Gu Weijun

The original 29 provinces in the country plus the three municipalities of Beijing, Shanghai, and Vladivostok, as well as the newly established Binhai Province and Xing'an Province, have a total of 34 provincial-level administrative regions. Each administrative region has 6 representatives, a total of 204 people.

Zhuang, Manchu, Hui, Miao, Uygur, Tujia, Yi, Mongolian, Tibetan, Buyi, Dong, Yao, Korean, Bai, Hani, Kazak, Li, Dai, 5 ethnic minorities, one 90 ethnic groups, [-] people.

Religious persons, Buddhism, Taoism, Christianity, and Islam, four religions, 4 places for each religion, a total of 16 people.

Landlords, farmers, workers, students, merchants, and handicraftsmen have 10 quotas for each class, a total of 60 people.

军队分到40个名额,各行业代表60人,特邀代表150人,再加上中央各部门机关48人,一共668个代表名额。

"This plan has fully considered various aspects. First of all, the number of representatives of each provincial administrative region is the same, which reflects that the status of each province is equal. Each of the [-] ethnic minorities has a quota, which reflects the principle of equality of ethnic minorities. They can also participate in state affairs. Similarly, the quotas for each religion are equal, and the quotas for each class are equal, which also reflects the principle of equality." Gu Weijun said with some pride, this is the list of representatives that he has been thinking about for a long time.

"Well, this list is good, and it has indeed achieved the purpose you said. However, the equal number of places in each province does reflect that each province is equal. However, it is impossible to be completely equal between provinces. For example, how many people are there in Shandong Province? There are tens of millions of people. Mongolia only has hundreds of thousands. Compared with the interests of tens of millions, the interests of tens of millions should not be equal?" Zhang Anle asked with a frown after hearing Gu Weijun's words.

"This..." Gu Weijun was at a loss for words, not knowing what to say.
