Chapter 421: The second 10-year plan

The first 10-year development plan was successfully completed, and the country's fiscal revenue doubled, which is the basis for Li Mingyuan's decision to implement five-year free compulsory education.
Education is a strong foundation for national development. On the basis of the first ten-year development plan, education is still the top priority in the second ten-year development plan.
Improve the orphan raising and education system, and incorporate the East Asian immigrants to earn a living. The orphans caused by the death and loss of their parents are fully included in the national security system. The central government will pay for all the orphans ’primary and middle school expenses and education expenses. .
In the next ten years, the total tuition fees for intermediate schools and colleges and universities will be reduced by 30% and 25%, respectively.
Gradually achieve the ultimate goal of universalization and free education.
In terms of agriculture, we adhere to the production method of family farm-based production, medium-sized and large-scale farm pasture production, and continue to promote a standard family model of seven households (two adult parents and five children) and two hundred acres of arable land. (Research scholars in the field of native agriculture believe that a family of seven or nine with a family of 200 acres of arable land or 1,000 acres of pasture is the most suitable for the stability of South American native society.)
Integrate and monopolize South America's foreign grain trade channels. The state-owned grain export trading companies under the jurisdiction of the government will uniformly formulate grain, livestock purchase and export prices, and formulate a protection system to prevent the phenomenon of low-value food hurting farmers and expensive food.
In terms of population growth, the system of encouraging fertility will never waver, gradually improve the system of workers 'employment, alleviate the pressure of industrial development on workers' families, and provide corresponding relief policies for those with difficult family conditions to reduce their education, housing, and child care. Social expenditures in support, etc.
In the heavy industry, we will continue to increase the construction of infrastructure such as railways, highways, bridges, and canals. By 1899, we will achieve the goal of exceeding 1.5 million tons of crude steel output and the country's total iron and steel entering the top six in the world. …………
With the technical foundation laid down in the first ten-year development plan, Li Mingyuan was even more handy when he formulated the second ten-year development plan again.
"Population is the foundation of the country. Without sufficient population, no advanced machinery or equipment can be used. Therefore, the introduction of immigration and the encouragement of childbirth will be implemented as a national policy and will be implemented forever. As for some officials, they are worried about the overpopulation and the intensification of social conflicts. Question, there is absolutely no need. "
After the first discussion of the second decade's development plan at the Dachao meeting, Li Mingyuan began to explain several issues that officials were worried about.
"There can be two reasons. One is that the country's industrialization is accelerating, and the number of workers who work in cities has rapidly increased. As a large number of farmers and educated youths have entered the city and transformed into urban populations, workers' working hours have increased and their lives have increased. Accelerating the pace, the cost of raising young children will also be higher than that of rural families. Constrained by various factors, it will cause urban workers' families to reduce their fertility desires and the number of urban newborns.
This phenomenon is not only in France and Germany (the German population was 50 million in Germany in 1871. Although the German population increased by 9 million during this period, the infant birth rate showed a downward trend. It is only because the mortality rate has decreased significantly that it appears that the population is growing faster than before. .) And other European countries exist. In the local area, according to the data of the new population survey in the past three years, Changan, Songjiang and other urban households have an average birth rate of 4.9 babies per household, which is higher than that in rural areas. 5.1 babies are 0.2 percentage points lower.
As the country's industrialization process accelerates, the national fertility will likely be further reduced, so it is difficult to maintain the current high growth pattern of the local population.
Secondly, even if the population continues to grow at a high speed, causing the population in the local area to exceed the optimum range, the central government can take appropriate measures at this time to transfer some of the surplus population to overseas colonies, and then resolve the overpopulation in a moderate manner. The problem. "
"The land is very sparsely populated, and the British Empire restrains it. It opposes the expansion of its territory to Brazil and Chile. The Americas are hostile to the United States and the Republic of Brazil. They always want to find opportunities and dismember the empire.
In this unfavorable situation both internally and externally, it is too early to discuss the problem of excessive population growth in the future. "
From the perspective of the highest-ranking official in the country, Liu Pu's views are more consistent with Li Mingyuan.
"In the future, there will be an overpopulation of indigenous people, which can expand the territory to the north or disperse the population to overseas colonies. If the Congolese colony cannot accommodate more populations, relying on its population advantage, the imperial army can also use the guns in its hands in the direction of Southeast Asia and Africa. Get enough living space for the local Chinese! "...
Government officials and military generals have stated their positions. Although their standpoints are different, their views are very consistent.
"Last year, some officials came up with different ideas because of the conflict between old and new immigrants. In the second half of the year, Americans fanned the flames, and based on the rapid growth of the local population, rendered the Han population threat theory in South America and encouraged Brazil. Countries such as Chile and Chile have joined forces to curb local development. In this case, some officials listened to the so-called Malthus theory in the West, and then shook their minds and followed American steps to challenge the contradiction between old and new immigrants. It was foolish! "
Li Mingyuan's tone became cold, and he reiterated again: "Malthasian theory is nothing but a flawed and endless fallacy.
The Propaganda Department of the Ministry of Proprieties must do a good job of internal and external propaganda, refute the discredited propaganda propaganda made by Americans, expose the sinister intentions of the United States and some western countries to the local people, ban the spread of Malthusian ideas in the country, and continue to increase the introduction of immigration Intensify and encourage the implementation of fertility policies! "
The Han Dynasty, which has an area under control of 3.6 million square kilometers and a population of more than 17 million, has become a comprehensive national strength in North and South America, second only to the United States in the Americas.
With an annual net population increase of more than 1 million, excluding the number of overseas immigrant inputs, the birth rate of a newborn born to an average age couple of 5.02 babies is calculated. In less than 16 years, the number of local natural population can double.
Even compared with the data of the population doubling in 25 years in Malthusian theory, the rate of population growth in the Han country is very rare in the world.
The Han country, which ranks first in South America in terms of industry, military and population, will continue to attract the attention of the United States and some hostile countries even if it develops in a low profile.
Focusing on the struggle for dominance in South America and even the entire Americas, Americans did not forget to use various means to curb the development of the Han country when they were competing with Britain.
First, the "Chinese Exclusion Act" was used to plunder Chinese property and sever the power of Chinese expansion and development in the United States. Then, on the ground of explosive population growth, the Han threat theory was rendered.
The contradictions between the United States, Britain and the United States have attracted the attention of many European countries.
Tsarist Russia, Italy, and France have a lot of radicals inside, applauding the Americans ’moves, but at the national level, Britain, France, Germany, and Russia, either indifferent or like Russia, have some expression, but their strength Inadequate, unable to exert influence in South America.
It is impossible for officials who can be mixed into the first-level position of the country because of American propaganda to do unprofitable things to the country. After all, everyone knows that the United States ranks first in terms of absorbing immigration and population growth.
Except for the United States, countries in South America and Canada, Mexico and other countries are also absorbing immigrants. However, because of the small number of Chinese in the early days of the founding of the People ’s Republic of China and the surrounding harsh international environment, Han ’s continued adherence to immigration introduction policies only allowed population growth. More conspicuous.
Enriching newly-occupied areas with immigrants is something European countries are doing ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Britain and Russia, as colonial powers, are also the most active countries to evacuate local immigrants to newly-occupied areas.
Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa are key immigration input and colonies operated by the United Kingdom, while the vast Siberia and Central Asia have become the first choice for the Tsarist Russia to settle the poor.
As large as a country with a population of tens of millions, such as Britain and Russia, and as small as a country with a population of tens of millions, such as the Netherlands and Portugal, are sending populations overseas and colonies. The difference is that Americans use this as an excuse to attack the Han country. .
Overseas immigrants are constrained by transportation capacity and cost of immigration. The number of immigrants cannot grow unlimitedly. Based on this understanding, Western countries are curious about the rate of population growth in South America and South Korea, but considering imitating the Han government, The huge financial expenditures brought about by the state to organize immigration transportation, resettlement and other operations, most of the countries wisely chose to give up, while a small number of people with comprehensive comprehensive strength like Britain and Germany borrowed from the experience of the South American and the United States , Adopted a more enlightened policy than in history,
Led by the national government and some non-governmental colonial institutions, local people from the bottom are encouraged to migrate to overseas colonies. …………
