Chapter 1272 The Characteristics of Nanyang (Second update, please subscribe)
“Tobe, or not tobe: that is the question.”
A sudden question made Li Yian fall into deep thought. It is the most classic line from "Hamlet". Translated into Chinese it is
"To be or not to be, that is the question."
The reason why Margaret This line is mentioned obviously because of the recent "Zhang Mingguo Revenge Case."
Even this first family actually needs to live. Their life is the same as that of ordinary families. After dinner, they will also get together to watch TV or chat there.
Sometimes, when they are together, they will inevitably talk about current affairs.
At this time, Margaret said.
“I heard that the District Procuratorate has formed a prosecution team headed by prosecutor Li Miao. Its members are all the best prosecutors from the District Prosecutor’s Office, but Zhang Mingguo only has one defense lawyer.”
Her tone was full of sympathy for the weak. After all, in this unfair trial, Zhang Mingguo was the weak one, and his defense lawyer was also weak.
So it is inevitable that there will be a tendentious attitude. Sympathy for the weak is also the most basic human nature.
“Oh.”
Li Yian responded without saying anything. It was as if he didn't pay attention to all this at all. At this time Margaret said again:
"Dear, do you think Zhang Mingguo is guilty?"
Although she is a princess, Margaret has always been a very interested person. She has been very concerned about this case since she learned about it, and she is extremely sympathetic to Zhang Mingguo, and at the same time she admires it very much.
It has to be said that such a person who enjoys grudges will always arouse people's spiritual resonance.
Waiting for Li Yi'an to answer, Li Yixuan said:
"Mom, whether he is guilty or not should be decided by the jury - no one is immune from the death penalty unless indicted by a grand jury. Punishment for other serious crimes."
Then he specifically emphasized:
"Father should not use his influence to interfere with justice at any time."
Her son's retort made Margaret pouted and said:
"We are just chatting at home, and outsiders don't know, and Yixuan, don't you think he is very brave? Like Just like the knights in the movie."
"That's not important."
Li Yixuan shook his head and said:
"The important thing is the law. Anyone who breaks the law should be punished. .”
Margaret asked after hearing what her son said.
"Then what would you do if you encountered a similar incident?"
"Believe in the jury, believe in our laws!"
"If he is convicted Guilty? Because of killing a traitor, because of the traitor’s past crimes."
After a moment of silence, Li Yixuan said,
"I will respect the outcome of the trial."
"Really? Even if it is the death penalty!"
Faced with his mother's questioning, Li Yixuan has not yet answered, and Yi Yuan on the side said directly:< br>
“The result must be respected, but the law is nothing more than human feelings, and the judge will decide according to his discretion. Moreover, even if it is the death penalty, just pardon it before execution!”
After that, he rushed again The elder brother smiled and said:
"Right, brother."
Li Yixuan smiled and said:
"Absolutely, but we need to find an opportunity."
After that, he said Turning his eyes to his father, Li Yian said when he was about to speak:
"Yixuan, have you completed the homework I assigned before?"
Li Yian directly changed the topic. In fact, he was using this method to remind them that now, we do not need to pay attention to this incident to avoid affecting judicial justice.
Whether it is history or experience from another world, Li Yian is very clear about the interference of superiors in cases, and even personal likes and dislikes. They will fundamentally influence the fairness of the judiciary. Once the superiors influence the judiciary based on personal likes and dislikes, then there will be no so-called fairness.
The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked - when the person in power intervenes in the judiciary, others will follow suit.
Therefore, for those in power, the most taboo thing is to interfere in judicial trials. Especially that kind of special care. Don't say what you want - this is for the sake of fairness and justice, but in fact it is just fart.
From the moment the superiors intervene in the judiciary, whether there is justice or not, the judiciary has been interfered with.
They only need to say "This is a case that concerns you". Maybe the result will satisfy Li Yian, but what about the future?
What will it look like after setting the precedent of interfering in justice?
In the end, we have to come up with the idea that "large cases should be judged by **, medium cases should be judged by influence, and small cases should be judged by relationships." This is not alarmist, but an inevitable development trend after judicial intervention.
At this time, the best choice is to keep your distance. Don't express any opinions.
In fact, in the past ten years, what has been the most difficult thing for Li Yian?
Just restraint!
It means restraining many inner desires, including the desire to do Bao Qingtian.
Actually, a normal country does not need Bao Qingtian. Why do people long for Bao Qingtian in the world.
Because the sky is unfair!
But is it injustice in the sky or injustice in the world?
Li Yian didn't know, but he knew that if he did Bao Qingtian, Nanyang would definitely be unfair.
For this reason, in the legal provisions of Nanyang, there is the crime of obstructing justice, which is a criminal offense and one of the indictable crimes. Moreover, the judge has the power to impose an appropriate penalty based on the seriousness of the crime without any restrictions. Therefore, in theory, there is no upper limit on the sentence that can be imposed, that is, life imprisonment. But if a public official commits a crime, the starting point for the sentence is generally 15 years. In fact, this is also a characteristic of Nanyang's justice - if public officials commit crimes, they will be punished severely! Therefore, in Nanyang, few officials will express their views or opinions on a certain case, let alone exert influence. Because this is a crime!
Although this is just a conversation between family members, it is better to change the subject.
“Ah...”
Facing his father's inquiry, Li Yixuan quickly replied:
"It's basically completed. I think the first step is to solve the financial problem of "Yinglong Town" and ensure that the local finance can be ensured through some measures. Self-sufficiency is the fundamental prerequisite for the development of Yinglong. After all, finance is the mother of government. Without self-sufficiency finance, it will definitely be difficult to maintain by relying solely on subsidies."
Nodding, Li Yian motioned for him to continue.
"So, I think Yinglong Post Office should be allowed to issue its own stamps."
Li Yian was stunned by his son's suggestion and said in confusion.
"Issue your own stamps."
Although Li Yian knew a little bit about many things, he basically knew nothing about stamps. After all, he lived in an era where Writing letters... is already history!
In addition to college admission letters, what else should be sent?
Besides, it’s also express delivery!
I have only heard of stamps, who has ever used them?
His father's doubts made Li Yixuan excited. He finally encountered something that his father didn't understand. This was not easy!
So Li Yixuan explained.
“Because the printing cost of stamps is really very low... Stamps are also good souvenirs for many people. For example, in Europe, Liechtenstein, the traditional stamp kingdom, issues stamps every year. Although the stamps are not printed in the country, they account for a very large part of the country’s income, but the profits are still very considerable.”
Then he specifically added:
“In order to promote the national response to the dragon. Of course, in order to open up the market for stamps, we can include Yinglong in geography books. It is estimated that by issuing commemorative stamps every year, we can probably obtain more than 200,000 yuan in fiscal revenue. After deducting the cost, we can basically guarantee the local Financial expenditures.”
Margaret also agreed:
"200,000 should be the minimum. The price of commemorative stamps is high, and the profit is also high. It is different from ordinary stamps. One stamp costs one yuan. In Nanyang terms, , there shouldn’t be any problem raising about one million dollars a year.”
“The premise is that those stamps must be attractive enough and distinctive enough.”
Li Yiyuan is also on the side. Agreed.
Obviously, compared to Li Yian, they all have a certain understanding of stamps.
"This is a good idea. It can at least solve the financial problem to a certain extent."
Nodding, Li Yian said:
"Then what's the next step?"
"Next The first step is to create a livable environment!”
A few minutes later, when Li Yixuan took out his design, Li Yian was a little confused.
Is this a space city from a science fiction novel?
“So, I think it is necessary to build a dome city and cover the entire city in a large glass dome. This dome can not only block the severe cold, wind and snow in Antarctica, but also produce a greenhouse effect. Let it create an independent ecosystem independent of the Antarctic environment."
When mentioning the "independent ecosystem", Li Yixuan opened another picture and continued to explain:
"This artificial ecological circle is like a large greenhouse. We can plant trees, fruits, and vegetables inside. Of course, people can also live freely inside and participate in the temperature inside the local greenhouse in Yinglong and the temperature inside the dome. , should be around 20 degrees. This allows local residents to experience the sunshine in the cold winter and even enjoy the tropical seaside life on the beach."
Since his father assigned this assignment, Li Yixuan has started thinking. Not only did he read a lot of information, but he also went to the university to seek advice from some professors. Finally, he came up with the idea of this "dome city" and "independent ecosystem".
"At the same time, due to the improvement of the living environment and the increase in population, Yinglong Town can not only develop the fishing industry, but also establish fishery processing workshops, thereby truly achieving full financial self-sufficiency."
Listening to his son's explanation and looking at the drawings he showed, another word came to Li Yian's mind involuntarily - space!
Isn’t this dome city prepared for space?
If human beings want to enter space, whether it is the moon or Mars, they cannot do without such a "glass cover". Only under the protection of such a glass cover can humans truly survive in space. Come down.
Moreover, in another world, scientists seem to have a similar plan - to create an environment suitable for human habitation through a super-long-span dome structure in areas with extremely harsh natural conditions, such as the polar regions, deserts, and even alien planets. Regional environment.
From the earth to space, we all need dome cities like this!
"Dome city, independent ecosphere...ecosystem?"
Almost subconsciously, another famous experiment appeared in Li Yian's mind - Biosphere 2!
Biosphere 2 is located in Arizona, USA. It is a man-made closed ecosystem built from 1987 to 1989. It covers an area of 13,000 square meters and is about 8 stories high. It is a dome-shaped sealed steel frame structure. Glass buildings. Biosphere 2 is designed to explore the interaction network within living systems with different regional structures based on various biomes, and to prove that artificial closed ecosystems can self-sustain and support human habitation in space or other celestial bodies. There are several biomes and living areas, agricultural areas, and work spaces within the building.
Biosphere 2 has planned two long-term scientific research missions: allowing eight people to live for two years with only sunlight input. However, their attempt failed. Although "Biosphere 2" failed to achieve its design goals, it is mankind's largest "independent biosphere" attempt.
At this time, looking at the dome city designed by his son, Li Yian couldn't help but have an idea in his mind - can it be turned into Nanyang's "Biosphere One"?
There is no need to only input sunlight, it is just a test of the dome city. Through this test, it is proved that humans can live well in the dome!
Of course, this is only the first step. If this experiment is successful, "Biosphere 2" can be established, a truly "independent biosphere". Humans can live in it only by inputting sunlight—— Relying on the oxygen produced by plants, relying on self-cultivation and self-production.
Although this is just a conjecture, if humans want to enter space, this step must be taken.
Seeing his father staring at his drawings, lost in thought, Li Yixuan asked:
"Dad, what are you thinking about?"
Looking back at his son and then at his drawings, Li Yian said:
"Space, I think... it might be suitable for outer space , suitable for us to build our own city on the moon!”
