Chen Hongliang mobilized his Dantian Qi and shouted loudly: "Please be quiet, everyone."
As expected, his voice was loud, and with the help of the copper trumpet, the sound spread to the entire square in an instant, and standing there Next to him, General Manager Zhou's ears hurt, and he quietly took a few steps to the side.
"Brothers, what is being held here today is the first election of the Luzon House of Lords in the Ming Dynasty.
This is a major initiative in the history of Chinese civilization, but it did not happen out of thin air.
Mencius once said that we are friends when we go in and out, we help each other when we are sick, and we are friends when we are sick.
Support is the source of mutual help in our Chinese culture.
In the Song Dynasty, I Our ancestors have already begun to formulate rural regulations and civil conventions, and our election today is the culmination of the wisdom of our predecessors.
This is formulated by our great emperor to allow everyone to be able to do what we want.
Everyone is the master of Luzon."
"His Majesty the Emperor said that we want to establish a government that is owned by the whole people, governed by the whole people, and enjoyed by the whole people.
The members we elect today need to be loyal to the Chinese nation, loyal to the Ming Emperor, and responsible for the people of the Ming Dynasty under their rule.
And four years later We will conduct re-election, and if you do well, people will still elect you, but if what you do does not satisfy everyone, then they will elect someone else who is satisfied with it. " "Elected members, you must formulate laws suitable for Luzon, you must supervise the various administrations of the Governor's Palace, you must review the financial expenditures of the Governor's Palace, people must call you Mr.
Congressman, and people will refer to them as I will tell you my opinions and suggestions as a basis for you to amend the laws and supervise the officials.
In Luzon, you are the representatives of His Majesty the Emperor, and you will rule Luzon on behalf of the Emperor."
"Please let us cheer for our Emperor: Long live His Majesty the Emperor!"
More than 20,000 people in the square shouted together: "Long live His Majesty the Emperor!"
So many people cheered together.
The locals watching the excitement and the Spaniards imprisoned in the military camp were all surprised.
Philip murmured: "Spain is going to lose Luzon."
After saying that, his tears finally flowed down.
The speech in the square continued: "We spent a month to preliminarily select Chinese people who are qualified to run for parliament.
There are 103 Chinese people in total.
Among them, our Chinese people in Luzon will Elect people who can speak on your behalf and you will elect people who care about us.
People who live in hardship.
Now these one hundred and three gentlemen are standing here.
When everyone comes in, someone has given you a ballot.
Whoever you want to vote for, just put your ballot in the box in front of this person.
The person with the most votes in the end will be our first-term congressman.”
"Please line up and vote one by one.
Don't run, don't make noise, and don't interfere with forcing others to vote.
Please work hard for the Marines who maintain order.
The voting begins now."
It was finally time to start voting, and people in the square rushed forward.
Gui Suzhen had expected this situation.
Three thousand Marines were scattered in the square, holding bright bayonets and shouting: "Don't run, keep away from each other."
Needless to say, the intimidating power of bayonets.
The crowd who had just been about to rush forward calmed down and began to look for their favorite candidates in the square.
After finding them, they looked at the soldiers next to them and slowly walked forward.
Place your ballot in the box in front of the candidate.
The ballot paper is a piece of paper with the word "Member" printed on it.
After putting the ballot paper into the ballot box, the candidate bows to express his gratitude, and the elector bows in return, showing a humble and courteous manner.
There were more than 20,000 people, and it took an hour to complete the selection.
Mainly because it was the first time that everyone was unfamiliar with them, and it took a lot of time to look for people everywhere.
After the selection, one hundred and three candidates came to the high platform holding their boxes.
Three soldiers were in charge of each box, one counting, one supervising, and one writing the correct words on the paper, while the candidate himself looked on.

This step is very fast, and then all the soldiers who have counted will hand over their statistical results to the total counter beside the stage.
The counter erected a large blackboard in front of the high platform, and then used chalk to write the number of names and votes on it.
After all 103 people had registered, the counter would write "1" in front of the name with the most votes, and then find the names behind it in turn.
The ranking will end when it reaches the fiftieth place.
At this time, a transcriber copied the first to fifty names on red paper and pasted them on a large wooden board next to the blackboard.
General Manager Zhou said: "Gentlemen, please follow me to the House of Representatives."
The House of Representatives is a two-story wooden building three miles away from the Governor's Palace.
It is surrounded by a wall and has a wooden sign hanging at the door that reads "Luzon House of Lords".
There is also a wooden building opposite it, and It looks similar here, except the wooden sign at the door says "Luzon House of Commons".
Fifty members followed Mr.
Zhou into the House of Lords and came to a strange hall.
This hall is not flat, but sloping.
There is a small platform at the lowest door, with a small table on it.
Opposite the table are rows of increasingly taller chairs.
General Manager Zhou said: "I have just asked people to put your names on the backs of the chairs.
Please sit according to your names.
Because we only have fifty members now, everyone's positions are towards the middle and front. ” The congressmen were very curious.
They found their names one by one and sat on them.
The chair was fixed to the ground and very hard, making it uncomfortable to sit on.
General Manager Zhou stood in front of the small table and did not sit down.
He said: "This place is called the parliament hall, and everyone will discuss things here in the future.
This table is used for people to speak, and the table next to it is used to record everyone's proposals and legal provisions.
There will be a special The recordkeepers are here to serve you all.”
He pointed to the first empty seat directly opposite the table and said: "This place is the seat of the Speaker.
The Speaker is the convener of the House.
The current Speaker is Luzon Governor Yang Gong, and future governors will automatically become the Speaker of the Upper House. " The congressmen were a little surprised.
Didn't they say that the House of Representatives supervises the Governor's Mansion?
Why did the Governor become the Speaker?
The Speaker is naturally the highest official of the House of Representatives, so what else is there to supervise?
After hearing the discussion of the members, General Office Zhou pressed his hands and said: "Dear members, the Speaker is just a convener, a person who presides over the meeting.
His power is as great as each of you members.
They only have one votes, so you don’t have to worry.
In addition, the House Supervisor.
The Governor-General's Mansion is the right thing to do, but it does not mean that it must always be in opposition to the Governor-General's Mansion.
If the Governor's Mansion does not violate the law, then the House does not need to cause trouble to the Governor's Mansion.
Everyone is doing this for Luzon's good and everyone is cooperating.
There is also supervision, which should be easy to understand
