Although it sounds similar, after joining the alliance, Red Arrow Star can still decide on its own agricultural group and farm, and can also let anyone inherit the industry according to its own wishes.
But in fact, the rich people on the Red Arrow Planet paid a high price.
In name, their performance and their respective companies are all subject to the supervision of the alliance. Even the government they originally formed, which was so loose that it only played a supporting role at most, would be replaced by the coalition government after it was disbanded. The past model of planetary management that mainly relied on farmer autonomy will be gone forever. In the past, the farm militia regiments, which were basically of no construction level, will also be completely disbanded and replaced by direct garrison troops from the Alliance Army.
They put a rope around their own necks and gave the other end to the alliance. From now on, as long as the alliance wants to, they can strangle any farmer or agricultural group to death at any time.
They will not have any ability to resist.
Of course they expected this situation. After all, this condition was originally proposed to the alliance by them.
There is not no opposition within the Red Arrow Star.
However, these objections have been resolved internally by them first.
The way they made this choice was actually very smooth.
First of all, it is very simple for the alliance to kill the Red Arrow Star. The strong military power, coupled with the legitimacy of the head of the sector, and the influence of the Gu family's status as head of the interstellar trade are all diverse, from force to peace, from civilization to barbarism.
Anyway, you will still have to kneel down to save your life. It is better to negotiate a deal first before taking action in the alliance. Everything on the Red Arrow Star can still be considered valuable. Good conditions.
This is the condition that can be negotiated after weighing.
They must have been able to sit back and relax in the past. That was not the case.
The situation on Red Arrow is generally stable for many years, but occasionally farmers will go bankrupt and agricultural groups will shrink. Under market competition, they also have a clearing mechanism to allow those who are not doing well to leave their undeserved positions.
Now, it is just a matter of changing the invisible hand of market competition into the visible hand of alliance government control.
They pay a price, but they also gain something.
The Alliance made a commitment. Although they took over the power of the Red Arrow Star, they did not have much willingness to make major changes to the situation on the Red Arrow Star. There is no problem here maintaining the appearance of an agricultural planet.
The Alliance does not plan to invest heavily in Red Arrow, but just by increasing the export trade of agricultural machinery, reforming agricultural technology, and expanding and optimizing the star port of Red Arrow, these measures have already been achieved.It is enough to bring enough benefits to these rich people on the Red Arrow Star.
They came with helplessness and left with worries, but in the following years, they will feel the warmth of the alliance and be glad that they made the right decision.
Gu Hang also gave instructions that the Alliance should give preferential treatment to planets that actively surrendered and fully accepted the Alliance's transformation.
Of course, it does not require special financial support. Mutual exchanges and progress are necessary. More importantly, it must provide political support. For these smart farmers, the alliance will try its best to ensure that their identity, status, and wealth will not decline.
We need to create a vivid benchmark. If there are planets that want to actively join the alliance in the future, having such a good precedent can dispel the doubts in many people's minds and let them The road ahead for the Alliance will be much easier.
Compared with the preferential treatment given by Red Arrow Star, Gu Hang was not so gentle towards Feiyi Star.
Gu Hang met the Governor of the Red Arrow Star at the Winged Star Pegasus Palace and accepted their joining.
The reason why it is here is of course because this is the office of the leader of Tianma.
The Winged Star has a population of 8 billion, a development level of 5, and an annual imperial tax of 4 billion. How can we pay the imperial tax?
Most of it depends on the shipbuilding industry, and the remaining part, A considerable part of it is exempted or paid in other forms through various tax reduction and exemption policies.
There are many ways to use this other form of payment.
There are several major items in it, such as paying for district government office personnel and office resources.
Of course, the personnel of the sector government must be paid and paid, and these people need to feed the empire's finances; they also need an office location, and the sector government needs to be equipped with vehicles that can carry out interstellar jumps. The spaceship must be equipped with a servo skull required for office work to assist in data processing
This is a very large amount of money.
Even the entire Tianma Palace was built for the district government. It took more than ten years to build a garden-style palace. As the office space of the district government, a total of more than one billion was spent. Tax coins are money spent by the empire;
Although there are not particularly many office staff in the district government, a senior clerk's annual salary is dozens or even hundreds of tax coins, which is far more than The income level of the average person.
In addition, there is also the Pegasus Naval Academy, which also uses the empire's finances to train naval talents for the empire and transport them to the Pegasus fleet.
Flying Wing Star pays these costs, and then obtains certificates from the district government, as well as certificates from the Ministry of Military Affairs and the Navy, to claim debts and tax credits from the empire.
In the past ten years, the amount paid by Feiyi Star to the district government and the Naval Academy every year ranged from 500 to 600 million to as much as one billion.
This huge tax credit, coupled with the ships paid by the shipyard, constitutes the Flying Wing StarThe structure for paying imperial taxes. Sometimes, when the Wing Star shipyard happens to be producing large ships, the shipping fee plus tax deductions, the empire not only cannot collect an extra cent from Wing Star, but also has to pay a lot of money.
However, how could there not be any manipulation in these matters
In the past, the leader of the sector government was Peter Peddes; although the governor of the Winged Star was Little Peddes, he was With Pedsi looking like that, can he lead the Winged Star well?
I don’t know if he doesn’t have the ability.
During that period, he only helped his brother, led the governorship, and lived happily every day. The important work on the planet was actually handled by Peders himself.
When Peddes was managing the planet and sector government, he actually used a group of people as two teams. This group of people is doing the work of the planetary government and the work of the sector government.
Isn’t this just letting the same group of people, with financial supplies from the empire, serve as the team of the planetary government? This saves the planetary government a considerable amount of administrative costs.
No one would check many personnel expenses and the cost of purchasing materials in the past when Peter and Martinelli were here.
But can it really stand up to the investigation?
Can it stand up to the meager investigation? Can it stand up to the successor Gu Hang, does he really want to be investigated?
Even, not only the expenses on these sector governments and naval academies, but also the products produced by the shipyard, are they really priced so reasonably and comply with the regulations of the empire?
The same is true Maybe.
Starships are different from other standardized war equipment, tanks, and the like. Starships can adopt different configurations from the hull design, power design, protection design, and weapons and equipment specifications on it.
Of course, the word design sounds nice. In fact, to put it harshly, every shipyard has this level of construction.
The level of each shipyard is different, and the ships they can build are also different. They can only be roughly regarded as xx-level specifications.
In this regard, people from the Imperial Navy and the Imperial Ministry of Military Affairs will come to evaluate the design of the ship and determine the specific price of the ship manufactured by the shipyard.
But this kind of pricing will happen once. The next step is to inspect and accept the ship when the imperial tax collector comes.
The two links of design and acceptance cannot be manipulated, and Peddes has not yet reached the point where his hands and eyes can reach the sky. Even those with such ability would look down upon this little thing.
However, there are still countless links between design and acceptance. It is not easy to cut corners in the construction process, but let’s talk about the money saved after the most normal workers are skilled and the craftsmanship matures
Not to mention there are some abnormal ones, such as those that were designed back then. The margin that was deliberately left at the time can now be saved.
From the administration of one team and two brands, to the financial training of naval cadets, to the selection of qualified sailors as taxes;
From the construction of ships, to process changes, to ship Acceptance;
When the integration of the sector government and the planetary government reaches this level, there will be too many operational links in between.
After Gu Hang received the official appointment from the head of the sector, he immediately ran to the Winged Star Pegasus Palace.
He brought his own guards. After landing, he also deployed the manpower of the Psychic Order and went directly to Tianma Palace.
The first person he met was the head of the Tianma Palace guard. This group of elite warriors, all equipped with feedback-type power armor, are private guards who are financially dependent on the empire and obey the command of the sector leader. They are the benefits or rights given by the empire to the sector leader position.
The equipment is purchased, and the personnel are specially selected from the elite of the Astra Militarum. This is of course a very good place for the soldiers of the Astra Militarum. Being able to stay away from war, with higher allowances and benefits, and on a garden planet like Winged Star, isn't it the best destination for soldiers who have spent the rest of their lives in battle?
But for the empire, It's not clear whether it's a good thing to have such an elite team of thousands of people sitting here and enjoying themselves.
In the past, the Pegasus Palace Guards took orders from both the sector government and the planetary government. This was not a multiple choice issue for them, because it used to be the same thing. Even after Martinelli came, the distinction between them, who were on the same camp, was not so clear.
But now, this problem suddenly and firmly faced them.
And they don’t need to think too much to know what is the right choice.
In terms of interests, following Little Pedro, who is obviously shipwrecked, is because of a serious mental illness; in terms of responsibilities, they are the direct guards of the sector leader. As for who the sector leader is, they don’t know. Pay attention and should not pay attention. Whoever is in that position will just listen to whoever is there.
Immediately afterwards, they received the first order from the new leader to clear out all non-sector government non-relevant persons from the Tianma Palace, the office of the district government.
In fact, there won’t be too many people. Although the Pegasus Palace actually serves as the headquarters of the planetary government, planetary government officials usually have the skin of sector government clerks.
But little Peters doesn’t have this layer of skin.
In the Tianma Palace, waiting to greet Gu Hang, I don’t know how much grievances I hide in my heart. I am also wondering whether it is better to recognize the reality and bow down, or to be tough and prefer to die rather than surrender. As a result, he was kicked out by the Tianma Palace guards who used to protect him without even seeing Gu Hang's face.
Then, little Peddes discovered that as the planetary governor, he could not interfere in planetary affairs.
Those who should obey his orders, extremely rare, and most of the important positions and senior staff are sector government personnel in charge of the empire's finances.
In the past, when the sector leaders nodded and asked them to do the work of the planetary government, of course they would do it. Now, if they are not allowed to do it, what should they do?
Then they can only do it honestly. Dry.
Most of them are reluctant to leave their posts in the sector government. Not to mention the amount of money in the position, they know better than anyone else that the planetary government has no personnel budget at all. It was unnecessary before, but now no one makes such a budget.
Of course, without management, the planet will be in chaos. Gu Hang didn't want to cause chaos in Feiyi Star, a wealthy place. He already regarded this place as his own property.
He will still let the officials of the sector government continue to work, but they cannot do it directly.
As the head of the sector, he issued the first decree to reprimand the governor of the Winged Star, Little Peddes, for his chaotic governance. , reorganize the planetary government and complete the management work, otherwise Gu Hang, as the head of the sector, will formally initiate the impeachment of Little Pedro to the higher-level government.
Little Peter was dumbfounded.
Where can I go to form a planetary government in a month?
The people in the sector government are not used
This is not to kill me
p>
But it was obvious that Gu Hang was not trying to kill him.
If it was life-threatening, we wouldn’t have this month.
For little Peter, this is a whole month of thinking time, allowing him to make the right choice.
And little Peddes found that there were not many choices for him. Please remember to collect it, the latest and fastest website without anti-theft, free to find books and add books, you can join the qq group 952868558
