In the newly built lecture hall on the back street of Longyuan Pavilion, more than 20 young people were whispering.
"Is that Sun Wen?"
"I don't know, but I just heard her calling the person next to her Shaobai. Could it be Chen Shaobai from the Four Bandits?"
These young people are all students of Qiu Fengjia's Guangzhou Gezhi College, but the courses they are taking now are not from Gezhi College. These people are all students who have been carefully selected and allowed to enter Lin Youde's White Feather Fan training class, and are future political workers.
The backbone. The object of their discussion was Sun Wen and his entourage who came to visit Lin Youde this morning and were invited to attend the afternoon class.
Just as the young people were looking at the unfamiliar faces in the back row and talking enthusiastically, their squad leader Pang Dongming suddenly stood up and shouted "Quiet!"
Pang Dongming was wearing the student uniform of Gezhi College designed by Lin Youde, with a Philippine Campaign Medal and a blue Outstanding Service Medal on his chest. Lin Youde very thoroughly implemented his formula of "first form, then shape the spirit, and finally achieve both spirit and form."
The idea is that the details in this regard are really extraordinary. All kinds of medals and rewards were formulated before the Nanyang Army entered the war. Anyway, making medals and giving honorary titles is not a high-cost job. Low investment and high return. Why?
Happy but not doing it?
When the monitor yelled, the entire lecture hall immediately fell silent, and Lin Youde and his teaching assistant Ba walked onto the podium one after another.
"stand up!"
Suddenly, the students all stood up, neatly and vigorously.
"Why do we study?"
"Read for the rise of China!"
The sonorous and powerful voices gushing from twenty throats made the marble lecture hall tremble.
"sit!"
There was another neat sound.
Sun Wen and Chen Shaobai looked at each other, and the latter snorted disdainfully.
Lin Youde on the podium saw all this. In the last time and space, he always thought that Chen Shaobai was a crazy student, but in this time and space, Chen Shaobai gave Lin Youde the feeling of being closer to a dandy - yes, in online novels, he was always crazy at the beginning.
He is a tragic character who is dying and is trampled to pieces by the protagonist in the end.
As for Sun Wen, Lin Youde was very convinced at this time that the girl would not necessarily be convinced by his theory, but would definitely listen and think carefully about every word Lin Youde said. Sun Wen in this time and space has the magnanimity and mind of a leader,
But unfortunately, he lacks leadership skills - at least that's what it seems for now.
In the original time and space, Lin Youde did not have any favorable impression of Sun Yat-sen as a historical figure. He admired Taizu's pragmatism more than Sun Yat-sen's idealism. However, in this time and space, facing Sun Wen who he had just met today, Lin Youde did not
He clearly felt the charm of her body. If he, Lin Youde, had not already established his own foundation and career, he might have chosen to follow this girl and use his own abilities to make up for what she was missing.
From a leader to a leader's strategist - well, once you accept this setting, it seems to be very interesting.
But it is a pity that Lin Youde has already taken action. He is already the top leader responsible for the fate of the entire organization. Unless Sun Wen takes the initiative to join him, there is no possibility of cooperation between the two.
Lin Youde felt it was a pity.
It would be a pleasure if we could use this opportunity to let Sun Wen steal some advanced theories and ideas from him, so that she would suffer less setbacks in the future. That's why Lin Youde arranged this audit for Sun Wen.
Lin Youde cleared his throat, followed the style of an old professor he admired in college, pressed his hands on the podium and said: "Students, I believe you all already know your senior Pang Dongming. As the predecessor of this class, Bai
A survivor of the Lufan crash course, he will receive a complete political education with you from now on. Now I propose that we all stand up and observe three minutes of silence for those classmates who died in the Battle of the Philippines."
Three minutes later, Lin Youde opened the lecture notes, and during the moment of silence, Ba had already written the main contents of today's lecture on the blackboard one by one.
“Yesterday we talked about how the basis of mass work is to allow the masses to obtain tangible and practical benefits, and discussed how to use these benefits to guide and mobilize the masses. Today, what we are going to talk about is how to work under the conditions of limited resources.
We will quickly enable the people to obtain tangible and tangible benefits."
Lin Youde himself did not personally go to the Hailufeng base area for on-the-spot investigation. The basis for his decision-making was firstly Du Qifeng's report, and secondly the "Hunan Peasant Movement Investigation Report" written by the great ancestor of the previous time and space.
It was also improved based on Taizu's relevant theories, combined with his actual situation after time travel, and his own thinking.
The system implemented by Lin Youde in Hailufeng Village made full use of the strength of Linji Trading Company in his hands, as well as his golden finger: his business skills are now very high. And this set of skills has been improved by Lin Youde in the past two years.
Through observation and practice, he found that this set of skills has little impact on industries with high profits. This set of skills cannot directly increase turnover and profits, but for those industries with lower profits, the impact is relatively large: this kind of industry generally
It's all about making small profits but quick turnover, or selling to the same people repeatedly, so Lin Youde's skills that improve customer satisfaction can be fully utilized.
Therefore, the basic principle of the rural grassroots system established by Lin Youde is to tie as many farmers as possible to Lin Ji's chariot and bring them into the scope of his skills. On this basis, full reference is made to the various periods of modern China.
Practice rural reform and establish a grassroots organization.
The reason why we adopt the Tangkou organizational form is that it is closer to the perceptions of farmers in Guangdong.
Whenever Lin Kee expands to a new place, it will first purchase land with money, and significantly reduce the land rent on the acquired land. At the same time, it is proposed that any landowner who reduces the rent can use the reduced land rent to subscribe for shares of Lin Kee.
Since everyone can see the benefits of Lin Ji’s policy, the implementation of this part of the strategy will generally not encounter much resistance.
Then Lin Ji will purchase the cattle owned by local farmers. Farmers who sell their cattle can choose to take less money to join Lin Ji's tang, while other farmers can use their labor or give money to their members.
When you join Lin Ji's Tangkou, everyone takes turns using the cattle under the Tangkou's dispatch, and the Tangkou organizes the construction of farmland water conservancy - because when farmers participate in the labor organized by the Tangkou, they are regarded as Lin Ji's employees, and their work efficiency will increase.
Improvement, but Lin Youde deliberately attributed this to "this is for ourselves to work, so everyone works harder."
After the harvest, due to the reduction in field rent, farmers will have surplus grain for sale in addition to next year's grain preparation. These grains will be purchased by the Tangkou and then enter Lin Ji's circulation system - this is when his skills come into play.
It worked. Grain is not a very profitable commodity, but it is expensive and everyone wants to buy it. Once Lin Youde's skills are added, Lin Ji's rice shop is full of customers and there are many repeat customers.
When farmers have extra money, the Tangkou will provide low-interest seedling loans because the Tangkou provides cattle for farming. If they fall ill or have some problem, the Tangkou will organize farmers who came to the Tangkou to work as laborers during registration to help in the fields.
As a result, farmers' desire to save money for rainy days is greatly reduced, and the purchasing power converted from this money is greatly increased.
At this time, the supply and marketing cooperative opened by Lin Ji's hall showed its value. Farmers consumed the products produced by Lin Ji, and the remaining money in their hands entered Lin Ji's own money circulation.
A closed cycle is formed from this. Since most of the business-related processes are under the influence of Lin Youde's skills, and Lin Ji itself adopts a relatively advanced management system, the benefits generated during this cycle are very amazing.
This directly led to the rapid expansion of Lin Youde's financial resources in two years.
The increase in financial resources and the corresponding increase in reputation have made Lin Ji's expansion in new areas smoother. At first, Lin Youde's grassroots staff still needed to rely on traditional activities such as worshiping Guan Gong to implement new policies. Now Lin Ji
Ji's New Deal basically radiates to the surrounding areas automatically. Often when a church is established in one place, farmers from other places soon come to ask to join, and the landlords are also happy to reduce their rent and invest in Lin Ji's shares to receive dividends - because
That was indeed more profitable than collecting rent. Some young landlords even directly mortgaged their land to Lin Ji for shares, and then moved to live near Longyuan Pavilion of Lin Youde in Guangzhou, where they lived a life of debauchery.
The best thing is that Lin Youde is not afraid of others trying to learn what he does. Anyway, the results will not be as effective if he learns it. His organization can implement it efficiently and effectively. You can't afford to hurt a man with golden fingers.
"So, students, you see, after this whole process, we actually didn't spend a penny more. The initial investment was basically repaid within a year. To use a common saying, this is called a waste of money. We just
Through the change of strategy, we have completed the task of making a significant improvement in the lives of the local people. During this period, we did not ask anyone for a penny of sponsorship. No, to be precise, we made a lot of money in this process. The market's
The expansion will lead to the corresponding expansion of our factory, so that we can accommodate more industrial workers, and because our Linji factory itself has high welfare, the living standards of these industrial workers have also been improved."
"Just one policy," Lin Youde raised his index finger, "and the world has changed."
"I have a question."
"Say, Tianhua."
"Since farmers and landowners welcome our reform policy, why do you, Mr. Lin, keep teaching us to prepare for armed struggle? As long as we continue to implement the New Deal and expand the area covered by the New Deal, we will be done, right?"
Lin Youde smiled. He was indeed Chen Tianhua. The more he came into contact with the patriotic young people of this era, the more he felt that it was a pity that they died in the last time and space. If they had united under the banner of a powerful person earlier, these talented young people who died young would have
How many fruits will it bear in the future?
He looked at Sun Wen again and thought: I will save these young people who will be sacrificed in your violent revolution in the future. I will save the best blood of the Chinese nation.
"Tianhua," Lin Youde put away his sudden surge of emotions and answered the students' questions seriously, "The biggest reason why Lin Ji's new policy can be implemented relatively smoothly in rural areas of Guangdong is that Guangdong has been open to trade for many years, and rural areas of Guangdong have
The landlords have become bourgeois. Our policies actually meet the needs of the bourgeoisie. But in the vast inland, landlords still retain their feudal nature. In some areas, there are even cases where landlords make money from business and then go back to their hometowns.
To expand real estate in their hometown, they cannot willingly give up their land. At this time, they must rely on the army. In addition, the New Deal will undoubtedly make China rich and powerful, and China's prosperity will inevitably undermine the power of the great powers in China.
, what the great powers need is China as the sick man of East Asia, not China as a world power, and they will definitely not stand idly by."
"Are we going to go to war with the big powers?" someone asked.
"What, are you scared?" Lin Youde asked with a smile.
The young people in the lecture hall looked at each other and smiled. The fearlessness contained in those young smiles is the backbone of a nation.
At this time, someone else raised his hand and asked: "Sir, is our New Deal a bourgeois reform? If so, will there be a land enclosure movement like the British in our rural areas in the future?"
"Good question. I remember your name..."
"Yao Yuping is from Pingyuan. He was recommended here yesterday by Mr. Qiu Fengjia."
Now Lin Youde remembered that when he saw Qiu Fengjia's recommendation letter yesterday, he was surprised that Yao Yuping was born five years earlier.
"The British enclosure movement should not and cannot be staged in our Chinese countryside. It is also bourgeoisization, but the specific circumstances of each place are different, which will lead to considerable differences in the historical process. The UK's land area is only that of our country
One tenth. In addition, the farming civilization in Western Europe has never been as good as ours in China. Therefore, Britain has less rural land and fewer farmers. After land enclosure, the factories in the cities can accommodate these farmers who have lost their land.
"As for China, we have a vast territory, vast rural areas and many people. Our cities and our industries can never absorb so many farmers. But the development of capitalism requires a large number of industrial workers. Where do these workers come from? From liberation
Here comes the rural labor force!
"As you can see, during the harvest last summer and autumn, we Lin Ji organized a wooden cow and flowing horse harvesting team to carry out harvesting in the rural areas under our control. We also provided machines to shell the harvested rice, and we also grinded the rice.
Machine mills were used to complete the work. In the past, most farmers could not afford the products of these mechanical techniques, so they had to harvest and shell them by themselves, which was inefficient. Feudal landlords were also unable to use large-scale joint operations because they did not understand each other's needs.
Reduce the cost of using machines in batches, so wooden cows and stray horses are generally only used by big businessmen and military officials for transportation, which is a huge waste of productivity.
"Last year, in the rural areas under our control, many people who returned to their hometowns to help had nothing to do during the busy farming period. These people eventually participated in military training and became soldiers of the Hailufeng Detachment of the Nanyang Army. In the future, as our base areas expand,
, more rural labor forces will inevitably be liberated, and they are our soldiers and our industrial workers."
Lin Youde's words made all the young people present, including Sun Wen, nod their heads.
At this time, the squad leader Pang Dongming suddenly asked directly without raising his hands: "Sir, why are you telling us this? Isn't it our duty to strengthen military morale on the front line? We just need to know how to politically mobilize the soldiers, right?"
.
Lin Youde smiled and shook his head, saying: "Dongming, the short-term crash course you participated in was indeed set up for this purpose. That's because the war is about to begin, but my expectations for you are more than that. I hope that all of you here will
, in the future, if we go alone to a strange place, one year later, that place will be filled with our supporters."
Lin Youde's words set off a wave of whispers among young people. Some people had questions: "Can it be done?"
"Of course," Lin Youde replied confidently, "Remember, knowledge is power, you must make good use of it. Okay, that's it for today's lesson."
Upon hearing this, Pang Dongming immediately shouted: "Everyone stand up!"
Another swish.
"We are the sea of flowers in May, prepare and sing!"
"We are the sea of flowers in May, embracing the times with our youth. We are the rising sun, igniting the future with our lives. The sound of gunfire in Nanyang has aroused the awakening of the nation. The magnificent cause inspires us to carry on the past and open up the future. Glory, patriotic youth
The regiment, mother named us with patriotism, and we create a new world."
In the melody of the Gezhi College Patriotic Youth League song "composed" by Lin Youde himself, Sun Wen, who was sitting in the last row of the lecture hall, was silent, looking thoughtful.
**
In the next few days, Lin Youde led Sun Wen and his party to Hailufeng.
Their first stop was a large village named Xu. As soon as they heard that shopkeeper Lin was coming, all the villagers crowded into the entrance of the hall. Many of them were carrying farm tools such as hoes and were covered in mud. They had obviously just arrived.
Rushing back from the fields.
Lin Youde had to let his guards and maids clear the way before he could lead Sun Wen around the village.
Halfway through the visit, Sun Wen suddenly asked: "Mr. Lin, that little yellow flag hanging at the door of some people's houses is..."
"Well, that means someone in their family is serving in the Nanyang Army. There are a few small stars on the flag, which means there are several people serving in the army."
"So, where are those red flags?"
Lin Youde was silent for a while and then said slowly: "That means someone in their family died in the Nanyang Army."
At this moment, Chen Shaobai, who had been following Sun Wen and Lin Youde who were walking side by side, snorted and said disdainfully: "Others died in a foreign country, but Lin was enjoying a happy life in the rear. You are playing with women, you are sending this flag."
, do you want to show your hypocrisy? I think..."
Before Chen Shaobai could say what he was looking at, a loud shout came from the side.
"Damn it! Say that again?"
Before he finished speaking, a bald man emerged from the crowd. Although the strong man was not wearing a military uniform, the Xuanwu mark on his clothes still showed his identity. In order not to irritate the Qing court, Lin Youde ordered the returning Nanyang troops not to wear them.
Military uniforms, but officers need to wear their badges on their chests, so that they can gather soldiers on the spot for unified command when something goes wrong.
"My brother died in Nanyang, but he died willingly! The life we lived before Lin Ji came was worse than death than it is now. As long as my father and mother can continue to live this kind of life, I will
The bastard can still go to school, so it doesn’t matter if I die! I’m a rough guy, and I don’t know anything else, so I just recognize the principle of repaying a favor!”
"right!"
"Third brother, beat this bastard to death!"
The crowd suddenly became excited. The strong man who jumped out at first spat at Chen Shaobai's feet and cursed: "Damn it, if shopkeeper Lin hadn't been here and the army had discipline not to beat the common people, I would have f**ked him."
Die to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, a lean old man jumped out of the crowd. The old man raised his cane and shouted: "Brother Bing, you can't hit me, I'll fight you! I'll beat you to death, you bastard!"
Seeing that the crutch was about to fall, Lin Youde spoke.
"Okay, everyone. This Chen Shaobai is still my guest, please give me some face."
The effect of these words was immediate. The strong man who jumped out at first snapped and saluted Lin Youde, and the crowd quickly fell silent.
Upon seeing this, Sun Wen immediately went up and pulled Chen Shaobai out of the crowd. The matter was calmed down just like that.
That night, Chen Haihui ran to Lin Youde's temporary residence in Tangkou and patted him on the shoulder mysteriously: "How about it? Is it good for me to arrange that trip during the day?"
Lin Youde suddenly realized that Chen Haihui still put his arm around his shoulder and continued: "Now, if you can't handle Sun Wen, don't tell me that you are the number one lover in Guangzhou."
"Damn it, I'm not good at all." Lin Youde hurriedly argued that he was indeed not. It was just the effect of a golden finger. How could it compare to the power of Chen Haihui, a real love saint.
Chen Haihui shook his head, expressing his disbelief.
**
After spending half a month in Hailufeng, Lin Youde returned to Guangzhou.
The next day after returning to Guangzhou, Sun Wen left Guangzhou with her people. She left a letter to Lin Youde.
She wrote in the letter: "Wen has fully understood Mr. Lin's ideals and beliefs. If Wen had not raised the banner of the Xingzhonghui, she would have chosen to join Mr. Lin at this time. But Wen has already
Having embarked on the path of her choice, and with many followers, Wen cannot betray their trust. In the future, Wen will continue the path of violent revolution, and maybe one day, Wen will make achievements that are enough to boast to Mr. Lin. By then, Wen will continue on the path of violent revolution.
At that time, please be sure to allow Mr. Wen to have a drink together and talk about state affairs."
After reading the letter, Lin Youde saw that Ba was very concerned about the content of the letter, so he handed it to her. After Ba read it carefully, he sighed and said, "I think she will leave because she is worried that the people around her can't get along with you.
Harmony, based on my understanding of the Xingzhong Society, quite a few of their members are in conflict with your compatibility with Youde. Miss Sun can neither bear to see her subordinates conflict with you, nor can she bear to abandon these followers like this.
Her own people can only choose to leave. She is too kind, always tolerates the willfulness and nonsense of her followers, and wants to create a 'Great Harmony' that belongs to everyone."
"When you put it that way, she seems to be a bit like a saint."
"Well, sometimes I feel that Miss Sun Wen is like a martyr."
