Beiyang reactionaries

In fact, Wang Daoyi and Su Xixun formed their team a long time ago, but the approval from above was too slow, and it was not approved until June 6th.

These actions of the cabinet are indeed very high-profile.

As Yang Yongtai said, this is holding it high.

But it's actually procrastination.

Slow down the time.By the time the special inspection team and the special court came to Funing, Jiangsu, where the incident happened, it was already June 1923, 6, and a week had passed.

Therefore, in terms of public opinion, attention has begun to slowly decline.

On June 1923, 6, Wang Daoyi, the leader of the special inspection team, met with the Japanese Agricultural Reclamation Company and asked them not to leave Jiangsu until the investigation was completed.Ask them to take part of the money to compensate the injured students and farmers.

Yin Rugeng accepted this condition on behalf of the Land Reclamation Company.

It's already been highly rated.Many people think that the special investigation team has entered the working state.Unfortunately, what they don't know is that in order to make a concession from the Nongken Company, Yang Yongtai personally met with the Japanese consulate and secretly stated that this incident will not affect Japanese citizens.

Yang Yongtai, as the deputy prime minister of the cabinet, promised the Japanese consulate that this time the incident will be reduced to a minor one, and the Japanese will never be tried.As long as a little compensation is paid to the dead and injured, then the cabinet can settle the matter.Therefore, the Land Reclamation Company accepted the compensation mediation.

When the heat gradually decreased, on June 1923, 6, Yang Wei, the chairman of the provisional Senate, announced that the provisional Senate would discuss the issue of suffrage.

Discuss whether to expand the scope of suffrage.

The preliminary proposal is that as long as they are Chinese, people over the age of [-] (including [-] years old), regardless of gender, regardless of property, and regardless of whether they are illiterate or not, are eligible to participate in the election.

There was an uproar across the country when the proposal came out.

On June 1923, 6, after the Provisional Senate announced the new suffrage plan, there was a lot of discussion all over the country for a while.

The question of suffrage was a real tug.

Because this is a question that really involves the distribution of power.

Therefore, the suffrage plan announced by the Provisional Senate received waves of opposition.Allowing women to participate in the election has already made many powerful factions dissatisfied.After all, most of China's power factions are traditional social celebrities who disagree with the so-called "equality between men and women" and don't like to see women in public.

These people have always been the most opposed to the issue of women's rights, but these people are powerful figures in China.Back then, Sun Yat-sen and the others gave up their idea of ​​"equality between men and women" and abandoned those female comrades who fought side by side, just to win over these people.Although it has been the 12th year of the Republic of China (1923), there has been a lot of propaganda about women's rights in these years, and there are more and more female students, but there are still many stubborn people.

They are still opposed to women's suffrage, and women have the right to vote.

However, the suffrage plan of the provisional Senate not only involved the issue of women's suffrage, but also many other issues.

What did you say that even illiterate beggars can participate in elections regardless of property issues or cultural issues?This is not a joke.The right to vote in European and American countries means that only those with certain assets and knowledge can participate in elections.

Those without certain assets are the bottom of society.Even more illiterate.

Is this kind of bottom class eligible to participate in elections?

Also eligible to share the right to vote and be elected?

so funny.

Those current local power factions, who would agree to such a thing.If the right to vote and to be elected is really released, this will really affect their interests.So when the provisional Senate announced the new suffrage plan, the voices of opposition were very strong.

Local provincial councils came up with protest letters one after another, and major newspapers criticized the new suffrage plan one after another.

"How about it."

The issue of suffrage is definitely a core issue in Chinese society.

Most of the current congressmen and government officials are, at least locally, rich and powerful.No matter how poor the family background was, they were also born as small landlords in the local area.In the local area, the really poor families, the families who can't even eat, can't study, and can't get to the status of the current celebrities.Unless they fight on the battlefield, there is no chance to squeeze into the upper class.

Therefore, from their point of view, the right to vote and be elected should be held by people like them.Since ancient times, the stability of the government has relied on these local gentry.

The same should be true now.

Although Duan Xun established government agencies in towns and towns, he has already extended his hand into the towns and towns, taking away a lot of power from the local gentry.But generally speaking, in the current rural areas of China, those local gentry still hold a lot of power.

They don't want to, those mud legs still hold the right to vote.Even the right to vote will not be agreed, let alone those mud legs have the right to be elected.This is a violation of their rights, this is no joke.

How can that be.

So their opposition is the loudest.And because these people hold local power, the current local councilors, including county councilors and provincial councilors, basically come from such families.

This is a class.

They do not want this power to be shared with others.

So the opposition is very loud.These people are all educated and knowledgeable people, and they analyze from various levels how much threat the change of voting rights will bring to China and so on.

Anyway, it is against.

Of course, it is not without voices of agreement.

After these years of development, including the "New Culture Movement" of the previous few years, a group of Chinese intellectuals still strongly support these plans.Including many students, they are the biggest support force.

And those leaders of the feminist movement.

They even raised their hands in favor of such a plan.

The two sides scolded and fought fiercely.

However, as the discussion on the issue of voting rights became more and more intense, the northern Jiangsu incident was downplayed by many people, and many people almost forgot about it.In fact, this is what Chen Yuhao wants.

Of course, the issue of voting rights this time also made Duan Xun understand the current situation.

Local power was in the hands of local gentry.

It is very difficult to shake this force.Duan Xun needs to find some other forces to check and balance these local gentry.But now is not the time.

Because there is a more urgent problem waiting for Chen Yuhao.

"Prime Minister, everything that should be prepared is ready."

"No problem?"

"Yes."

Kang Xinru nodded.

Duan Xun couldn't help taking a long breath.

The issue of voting rights has been clamored for more than half a month, but there is still no result.But it has already attracted the attention of the whole country. Even the issue of suffrage is discussed in China, and even newspapers in Europe and the United States have begun to report it.

Because China's previous voting rights procedures are actually more similar to the voting rights in European and American countries.That is to have permanent property, that is, people with property and culture have the right to vote and be elected.

Any other woman who has no money is not eligible to have the right to vote and be elected.
