Chapter 1330 (1/2)
”Crazy! You're really crazy!”
In the study of the Imperial Palace, Aurelia was busy there while talking. As soon as the new laws and regulations were announced, even her secretaries couldn't be busy. Now almost everyone was running around. The information fed back from all over the country was in a mess, and the voice of magic phone kept rising and falling.
She cried and laughed, ”you're crazy. As a result, I'm crazy with you!”
If someone who doesn't know it sees it, I'm afraid I don't know what to think.
OLINA next to her felt almost the same, looking at Donne's face full of collapse: ”Dear, we all know what you want to do for the future of the world. We also know that you come from a more civilized and harmonious world. You really want to make the world more civilized as soon as possible, but what you are doing now is really exaggerated. You are taking too big steps! - you are competing for interests with those people, which is easy to arouse the counterattack of those people ！”
Aurelia cried and said, ”this time I agree with my mother. I really shouldn't be so crazy with you - now they're not crazy, I'm going crazy.”
Their mother and daughter are well aware of Donne's identity and mission, so they also know that Donne's original world is a more civilized world. Prandal's social reform is indeed imperative, but the reform is not so changed! Such a sudden release of a lot of new laws and policies, and most of them are against the aristocracy who occupy the voice of the society You're looking for death!
——It's a little ugly to say that the government forces the people to rebel, but at least someone will revolt for their own interests!
Donne shook his head and said, ”you are worried. In fact, the pain experienced in the reform is essential. In particular, the regime of our entire Ilus Empire has not experienced a huge internal revolution. It is a social reform initiated spontaneously in the development of social form, so it is normal to encounter resistance.”
OLINA couldn't help saying, ”since you know, you're still so sudden...”
”Just because I know, I need to make such a decisive decision,” said Donne very seriously. ”I've experienced a lot of things like reform. To be honest, if I don't have the courage to break my wrists, the determination to make a clean break with the past, and the determination to completely separate from the old society, I can't succeed.”
”Social contradictions generally exist in any class. The intensification of such contradictions will become more and more serious with the solidification of social classes. Now, the whole society is undergoing great changes due to our measures, and the contradictions between classes have been weakened. This is a good time for us to start.”
”If we don't take advantage of the current efforts to directly solve the remaining problems of the old society, but wait until later to deal with them slowly, these problems will sooner or later become a terrible time bomb and burst out at a moment that all of us can't think of.”
Donne looked at them carefully and said, ”that's my idea to solve all potential problems as soon as possible, rather than wait until it's about to break out. In fact, if I wasn't worried that nationalizing the land would stimulate those people, I would even directly turn the land into state ownership instead of taking back the land in my own name.”
Aurelia also knows that with the development of Datang chamber of Commerce, the productivity of the whole society is constantly improving. At this time, the contribution of the bottom people to the society is far greater than that of the aristocracy. At this moment, the aristocracy has done more harm than good to the whole society. They occupy a lot of social resources, but they have made no contribution to the development of the society. What's more terrible is that They also take this treatment for granted.
In the past, due to the inconvenient transportation and communication, the aristocracy was the tool for the rulers to maintain their rule and divide and rule such a large territory. The rulers only needed to manage the aristocracy, and their rule would basically not have too many problems.
But now, with all kinds of convenient communication tools, such as magic phone, artificial soul quantum computer, magic fax machine, and magic network, the central government's control over local areas is unprecedented, and there is no need for the aristocracy to assist in management. Their existence disperses the central control and has too many privileges, but it is an instability Certain factors.
Therefore, abolishing aristocratic privileges, re releasing resources to the whole society, increasing people's rights and giving them a way to rise are almost inevitable in the future - but Aurelia didn't expect this day to happen so soon.
Think about it carefully. What Donne said is also very reasonable. Social reform must be full of all kinds of resistance. No vested interest can be willing to release their rights. They will try their best to obstruct the occurrence of reform. This process itself is extremely difficult and full of all kinds of obstacles. It is impossible to complete the process of reform gently.
Normally, only a thorough revolution, overthrowing the previous regime and completely overthrowing the privileged class can create a new order.
