Chapter 60 Southern Governance!
Disarmament, construction of police and police systems, and formation of grassroots organizations are all national-level strategies. Naturally, Ouyang Bian and Su Che cannot be decided only by Ouyang Bian. This is just Ouyang Bian first look at Su Che's opinions. Next, there is a need to conduct multiple inquiries and seek a larger-scale consultation. Only after most of them agree can they be promoted in actual promotion.
After talking about these three things, Ouyang Bian thought about it and felt that it was still not perfect enough and had to improve it. So he said: "Ziyou, you should pay more attention to things in the south, not only economics, but also other things."
Su Che nodded affirmatively: "You are right. The south has just settled down and there are still many problems that need to be solved. Next, I will focus on the governance of the south."
Ouyang Bian nodded and reminded: "We should pay attention to the stability of the people in the south. Before, we drove the Song Dynasty to the south, which caused the migration of major families to the south.
Those people moved south of the Yangtze River, Jingxiang Road, Fujian Road, and even Guangnan East-West Road. During the Yongjia Rebellion, large northern families migrated and occupied land to become kings and formed a powerful clan.
This time, many large families migrated, and they may conflict with these large families. If they are not careful, large-scale fighting will occur, which is very unfavorable to social stability and will greatly hinder economic development.
The government should pay more attention to this, and the grassroots organizations and the police system should pay more attention to it. Land reform should be more thorough, and the land should be divided into small families to prevent the formation of clans.
If there are still clans who cannot see the situation clearly, the government will intervene with force and attack hard. If it is broken up, then organize it. We cannot allow these tumors to grow!"
Ouyang Bian said that he was murderous.
Su Che felt shocked and felt a little puzzled. First, it was difficult to avoid clans at this time and it was a customary existence. Second, Ouyang Bian rarely shouted and beat and killed. Even when the Song Dynasty was destroyed, Ouyang Bian advocated curing diseases and saving people, and persuaded surrender more and killed less. This time, Ouyang Bian's will was so firm that he didn't know why.
Su Che didn't understand very well, but Ouyang Bian understood too much the disasters that were prone to occur during the migration process.
During each migration of the Han people to the south, it was like a disaster in the end. There were robbers everywhere along the way, and small families moved south with their elderly and young people, and they were destroyed by themselves. Only when the big families moved south together can they safely reach their destination.
After the big family arrives at their destination, because of their huge size, it will pose a threat to the local big family and will compete for resources between them. This competition includes fields, water sources, firewood, etc. In the popular words of later generations, it is called inclined.
These robberies were compromised from the beginning, and later they would have formed armed fighting. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, Guangdong died directly from millions of people due to local and military fighting, and Guangdong's economy collapsed directly at that time.
Ouyang Bian would not allow this situation to happen, so from the beginning, it is necessary to guide and interfere, from the establishment of grassroots organizations to the establishment of a police and police system that maintains order, all are based on the prevention of this situation.
As for why the army is not used, this is for the sake of co-applicability.
The army is relatively suitable for quasi-military operations such as sweeping bandits, but in internal sorting, the police and police system that is fundamentally grounded is more suitable.
Because this contradiction generally evolves from small to large, if it is controlled from the beginning, it will not eventually turn into large-scale armed fighting, but it is not cost-effective for the army to do such a meticulous work.
Therefore, it is most appropriate to establish a professional police and police system.
It is more appropriate for the army to use the knife to the outside world.
Although Su Che didn't quite understand, he believed that Ouyang Bian was always right, so he didn't ask too much. Judging from Su Che's experience, clan organizations will indeed have a great impact on society.
Su Che's mother, Cheng, was born into a wealthy family in Meishan, Meizhou, Northern Song Dynasty, and the Cheng family was the richest man in the local area.
Later, Cheng married Su Xun.
Su Zhe and Su Shi had a sister. Because the women had a low status at that time, many of them had no names, or the names were not recorded in relevant historical materials, just because she ranks eighth in the Su family and was called "Su Baniang".
The famous Su Xiaomei in the novel unofficial history is based on her, but she is one year older than Su Shi.
At that time, they were very particular about being a good match and being close relatives. When Su Baniang reached the age of marriage, the Su family and the Cheng family decided to marry Su Baniang to Su Che's cousin Cheng Zhicai as their wife.
In this way, for Su Che, Cheng Zhicai was not only a cousin, but also served as his brother-in-law.
Logically speaking, this marriage should be quite happy. The two parties have a strong alliance, both of which are both in-laws and children are very familiar with each other, and there will be no problems.
However, I don’t know why, after Su Baniang got married, she was very unpopular with her parents-in-law and was often abused.
What's even more bizarre is that she had a child the next year after she married, but her husband's family ignored her and had to go back to her parents' home to recuperate.
However, her parents-in-law actually came to seek punishment, saying that she was not filial and even snatched the child, which directly led to Su Baniang's depressed death.
Because of this, the Su Cheng family turned against each other, and Su Che was very concerned about the matter of the Cheng family. The influence of the Cheng family in Meishan made Su Che look at him with admiration. Although the Cheng family was not doing evil, even so, the Cheng family was still very powerful in mobilizing social resources. Later, it promoted Cheng Zhicai to the Song Dynasty. A family in a small place had such energy, which was amazing.
There are many such families all over the country. If they can push their children to the court, they will certainly have a huge influence in the local area. If such families occupy the local area, no wonder the Song Dynasty could not collect taxes and had no control over the local area.
Ouyang Bian wants to deal with these wealthy families, probably because of these considerations.
In fact, Su Che's idea is correct. Ouyang Bian does have this idea. If a country wants to be strong, it must unite most people, but the local wealthy families are against the trend of history. Although they have no name for separatism, they have the reality of separatism.
After Ouyang Bian and Su Che finished discussing, Su Che said goodbye. He would promote this matter as soon as possible. Ouyang Bian also wanted to seek the opinions of the military. Disarmament has never been a simple matter. If it involves the military, it must be very cautious in any era.
