Chapter 128, ideals and unforgiveness
Gu Hang's speech ended in the tsunami of "Long Live the Governor".
What he said in the last paragraph can be said to be a picture, but it is a clear political commitment when it is said on this occasion, and it really makes people feel that the future can be expected.
The residents of the outer city are looking forward to the governor's ability to implement all the promises he said in the future.Thinking back to the propaganda of the clerks who obeyed Miss Ossina's orders and those red hats during this period of time, they began to believe that all this would not be too far away.
For the first time, the fire of hope was ignited on this land.
And even those residents of the inner city are inevitably touched.
Not to mention anything else, at least the governor's speech seems to indicate one point: he is not someone who can only extort money like the second-generation governor. They don't seem to have to worry about people working in factories in order to pay taxes; I don't know How many people will be treated as taxes, sent to the empire's transport spaceship, and fly to an unknown place in the starry sky, never to return forever, without hearing from them.
If this is the case, it seems that it is not impossible to support the new governor.
Hmm... the bottom line of a person is broken a little bit like this.
Give it a hard slap, and then as long as it's a little sweet, it seems that the situation is not unacceptable.
...
Is this public trial, public execution, military parade and awarding ceremony a performance?
Of course it is.
But who can deny the importance of propaganda in politics.
In this matter, the people in the inner city were slapped for watching the public execution of old acquaintances, and then they were fed a little jujube.After being tormented by Lambert for several days, the terrifying atmosphere created should be slightly relieved after this incident.
The residents of the outer city simply ate a sweet date.
There is no need to give a slap, they have suffered too many beatings in the past.
The demoralized people began to really look forward to the things the governor announced, and to look forward to a better life in the future, and they even became more energetic in their work.
It's just that publicity is publicity, but those things need to be implemented, and it's not just broadcasting them with loudspeakers.
Things need to be done one by one.
How is the school built?Where is the teacher from?How to allocate resources?The same is true for hospitals.
The so-called welfare policy is linked to the 45 ranks that Gu Hang conceived before, but what is the specific welfare situation and material allocation of each rank?How long is Fuxing City's current resources enough to last?Where do insufficient resources come from?How to ensure that subsequent production can keep up?
Not to mention, the output cannot all be eaten.The imperial tax is two years away, but preparations must start now.
There is no need to widely publicize each of these specific matters, and even many of the means cannot be said.
After the awarding ceremony, Gu Hang held an internal meeting.
This meeting is the real dry goods and the key.
Such a meeting lasted for two full days.
...
When Lambert left the conference room, it was already the morning of the third day.
The morning sun was not too harsh, but it still made Lambert's eyes a little uncomfortable.
The past two days had been dark for him, literally.
Board and lodging are all in the conference room, and yesterday there was an all-night meeting.
The governor is able to maintain a radiant look at all times, but he, Lambert, is a mortal and cannot bear this kind of suffering.
At the moment, he is really tired.
But I couldn't contain my excitement.
During the two-day meeting, a very important part was the appointment of personnel.Today, he is the head of the Supreme Legal Council and the highest justice of the alliance.His next important job is to formulate laws according to the spirit conveyed by the governor during the two-day meeting.
To this end, he needs to establish a Legislative Council to do legislative work and an Executive Council to do judicial work.In addition, he also needs to establish a disciplinary committee to supervise and audit government officials and enterprise factory managers.
At the beginning of the establishment of the new coalition government, there was already vigilance against corruption and institutional rigidity.He needs to grab this part of the work hard.
This is also in line with the work he did during the previous period.
Legislation, judiciary, supervision and auditing... many powers in one body. In other words, he, the highest justice of the alliance, is in a sense the same level as the head of the government—the prime minister of the alliance.But now, the prime minister of the alliance government is still in charge of the governor himself.
This almost means that he is already the highest official in the new alliance.
The Hodgson family's early investment in the governor has now paid off.
Even though, the concentration of such great power on him alone is definitely not something that can last long, and it is only a temporary measure when no one is available.After all, when the positions were divided, these positions were reserved, and someone would replace them in the future.
But so what?
He, Lambert, is in charge of this work, so aren't these people who will come up in the future essentially all of his old subordinates?Even if he doesn't work here in the future, he will still have a huge influence here.
However, high officials and rich salary are by no means the reason for his excitement now.
From his personal point of view, are these things worth exchanging the lives of the whole family?
If given a choice for him, he would never choose it a hundred times.
But his grandfather chose, and he didn't realize it until something happened.
When he just decided to come to the governor's camp to help the governor, he knew that his decision represented the attitude of the Hodgson family being put on the bright side.But at that time, the worst outcome he thought in his mind was that his grandfather would be in Fuxing City and bear a lot of pressure, and his family would be suppressed.
But all of that can be redeemed, and after the governor succeeds, he will get back what he lost.
He never thought that the chairman of the alliance's parliament would die in the capital of the alliance.
But old Hodgson may have thought of it a long time ago, but he didn't tell him.
Is it for him?
Is this for the Hodgson family?
Lambert thinks not.
If it's for these, they don't have to do this step.What is there to say about the Hodgson family now?Everyone is dead, and he is the only one alive.
What is that for?
He remembered the conversation he had with his grandfather before he left Fuxing City and came to the governor.
"The whole planet is looking forward to revival, the sooner the better. I am willing to contribute to this first, instead of continuing to wait silently. Being a promoter of the times is far more meaningful than waiting for the times to change and then getting on the bus in a hurry many."
This sentence buried a political family in Fuxing City, but it also became the fuse, allowing the governor to become the master of Fuxing City earlier.
No matter how many twists and turns there are in the process, it has now become an established fact.
Why do you say that only the governor can save the world?
For this question, what exactly did the transformation into an empire bring to Fury Owl Star?
History can be used as a lesson.
Imperial taxation is indeed a heavy oppression, but in the hundred years after the war and before returning to the empire, how was the situation of the fury star?
It's bad, even worse than the time of the second governor.
When a generation of governors established the alliance, the total population on Fury Owl might have been more than 2000 million people; after his 17-year rule, this number has doubled to nearly 5000 million.The birth rate has greatly increased, the death rate has been greatly reduced, and a large number of hidden populations have reappeared due to social development.
It's just that in the last 12 years, it has fallen to less than 4000 million.
Returning to the empire did bring heavy taxes.But other than that, it's not without its benefits.
To rebuild the world, the empire will allocate financial subsidies, which will be distributed by the star region government.
This aid, in the hands of a generation of governors, has brought about the great development of Star Fury in 17 years, and it can be called the engine of the revival of the planet.
Without these, a generation of governors took the lead to form an alliance and integrate forces from all over the world?
In addition to reconstruction assistance, there is one more important benefit of returning to the empire: interstellar trade.
After returning to the empire and having its own governor, the imperial caravan will use the fury star as a trading stop.A large number of things that Fury Star itself has no conditions to produce will be obtained with the arrival of interstellar trade.
These two items are the biggest benefits after returning to the empire.
Is it true that Fury Star can't develop?
no.
Although it is difficult, with the aid of the empire and joining the interstellar trade route, the Fury Star should have flourished.
What they need is a reliable governor.
Neither can be as incompetent as the first three generations, who are controlled as soon as they land, and the government orders do not leave the office; nor can they be like the second generation of governors, who only use violence and fear to rule the world, regardless of development, and exhaust their resources. Sooner or later, the game will collapse ; It can't even be like a generation of governors, maybe capable enough, but too kind, without the majesty of a ruler.
The loose political system of the alliance makes the forces in various places quite independent, and it is impossible to gather the power of the entire planet to concentrate on development and reasonably deal with the empire's taxation.This is the bane left by a generation of governors.
This is the result of Lambert's own thinking.
He is betting whether Gu Hang is a governor who meets these requirements.
At least so far, he feels he has made the right bet.
That being the case, saving the entire world doesn't seem like a vain thing.
And this is why he and old Hodgson are willing to give everything for it.
...
After leaving the meeting room, Lambert did not immediately go to the legislative work entrusted to him by the Governor, but went to the Union Prison and met with someone.
Former Union MP, Bradford.
This one did not appear on the previous execution list.
Normally, he is going to die.The dirty things on his buttocks are much more than many people who have been sentenced to death and executed.
But he is not dead.
It is said that it is because of his major meritorious service performance.
This is mainly reflected in the fact that Bradford has accused quite a few people of crimes and provided incriminating evidence.
Of course...
"You know." Lambert said to Bradford in the prison, "Being a so-called tainted witness can't atone for your crimes, and we actually don't need the accusations and evidence you mentioned ."
Bradford's current mental outlook is not bad, he nodded: "I understand."
"Now, it's time for you to make your first real contribution." Lambert said, "Minister Ossina has something to do for you."
"It's about food."
"Yes, you are very smart." Lambert said, "Right now, Ms. Ossina is the only minister in charge of finance, civil affairs, production and commerce. These responsibilities will definitely be separated in the future. The position of Minister of Commerce, I I think you must be interested. However, the competition for this position is very high, and you have inherent disadvantages."
Bradford listened carefully.
Moreover, he was somewhat surprised by Lambert's attitude.
Lambert didn't care about this, and just continued: "If you really want to join the new government system, the first shot must be fired, and to truly reflect your own value, solving the food problem is a good entry point."
"I understand, thank you."
Lambert stretched out his hand and stopped the thanks: "Someone will let you out in a while, and take you to see Minister Ossina, do your job well."
After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
"Wait." Bradford called him back.
Lambert stopped, but didn't look back.
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."
Lambert knew that Bradford's apology was for their Hodgson family.He waved his hand, turned his back to Bradford and said, "Don't make any misunderstandings, I heard your apology, but I will never forgive you. The only reason you can save your life is that you are still useful to the governor. You'd better keep ensuring that this reason exists, otherwise, no matter how far you flee to the ends of the earth, I will make you pay the price you should pay."
...
Bradford, who saw the sun again, was in a good mood.
Although Lambert threatened him verbally before he was released, he didn't take it to heart.
In other words, Lambert's attitude is just as it should be.
Even if he wasn't the mastermind, he was also the main accomplice in killing the Hodgson family, and the two of them had a sworn feud.
Ask yourself, if you are in the same position, you are afraid that you will be punished by the governor and kill your enemy.
In fact, by entrusting himself to Lambert, the governor probably meant to entrust Lambert himself with the decision-making power on this matter.If Lambert really wanted his life, the governor might not even say a word of blame.
Regardless of why Lambert didn't do it, at least he survived for now.
Even, there is a chance to continue climbing.
Minister of Commerce... If Zhen gets this position, his status will probably not be worse than before.
His heart was full of motivation, and after seeing Ossina, he really showed his true skills.
