Chapter 757: Twenty-four. Young Governor (5)

Candlelight swayed in bursts. "Top "Point" Novel 　.w
The shadows of the eight men and women were twisted and shaken with the dim light, and the people in burqa said nothing, sitting around the round table, like a group of breathing shadows, the whole space shrouded in the suffocating silence.
"The situation is serious."
The old male voice broke the silence, and under his own words, breathlessness mixed with the sound of breathing acceleration. Ignoring some of the other participants' gaffes, the faltering statement continued.
"Everyone knows it well. The Governor is the strongest and most dangerous enemy we have ever met."
"..."
All attendees frowned, saying nothing.
It is really a bit embarrassing to admit that you have encountered setbacks under the hands of a teenager, but to this day, it is tantamount to deceiving yourself by continuing to die.
Especially now that the "Railway Land Collection Order" and "Wasteland Development Order" are promulgated, no one can continue to be an ostrich with its head buried in the sand.
Road repairs and dredging of river channels were originally the responsibility of local lords. In order to operate roads, it is necessary to collect tolls from transit people to maintain smooth road traffic and open up new roads through taxation. This has been the case for thousands of years. As the Governor of the Special Administrative Region issued similar orders, it seems understandable.
But the Governor-General has the financial power to build the railway in his own hands, instead of the local lord or consortium as in the past. The funds for the construction of the railway, surveys, route planning, scheduling of personnel and materials...Many matters are directly under the jurisdiction of the Governor-General’s Office. There is basically no place for lords.
This kind of thing has to be put aside. Undoubtedly, it was seriously stimulated by the nobles' g point, enough to call the lords together. But nowadays, almost nobles who originally dared to lose their gloves for the ownership of a small piece of land uttered objections. Most lords stayed at home honestly counting gold coins-as shareholders of railway construction, a huge dividend It is enough to counteract all unhappiness and make them wake up with dreams. It's a little harder for them to pinch the goose that lays golden eggs.
As for the common people, they are excited for a piece of their own land, expensive compensation for relocation, and more and more high-profile "return certificate", without any interest and the Governor who gives them all to do the right thing.
I'm so up.
The above situation could not have been imagined in the past, but now it is a real reality.
"We are too weak."
One person present was speaking. Several echoing sighs followed.
Previously, they despised or despised the newly appointed Governor of the HKSAR. I think it is just a rich second generation who relied on his adoptive father and consortium to seize the office of the governor. When the governor posted a notice when he took office, he claimed that someone had removed the wood in front of the governor’s house and rewarded 10 Egyptian coins. These people are more determined than their own judgment. Almost laughed to lie on the ground and roll-except for the money to burn hands dude. Who else would ruin money like this?
For the first time, they watched, with mocking eyes, a peasant named Juan taking 10 Egyptians from the governor;
The second time, they saw dozens of people fighting to move the wood;
the third time. The number of people increased to hundreds...
For the fourth time, no one could laugh when facing the spectacular scene of tens of thousands of people rushing to move wood.
400 Egyptians is a small expenditure, but it has caused subtle changes to the people who were originally full of resistance and resentment against the Governor’s House. Now all the residents of Salbadu know that the new Governor is a whimsy. , And willing to fulfill their commitments. Although they will not immediately change their hostile attitude towards Charlemagne, as long as anyone who knows a little about politics and emperor science can see the subtle changes in people's hearts, even the lifeless city of Salbadu seems to be regaining anger.
Before they responded, the governor ordered money to bury the remains of the victims wearing wooden piles outside the city. The convergence of the body, the place of burial, and the arrangement of the ceremony were determined by the lord of the occupied area and the ordinary citizens, and the expenses were reimbursed by the governor’s office.
This order is obviously used to ease the relationship between the conquered and the conquered. Once implemented, the opposition of the SAR will be relatively relaxed. Participants knew this well and tried to undermine the Governor’s efforts, but suffered from no justification. The only hope was the opposition of the Titans garrison, and the creation of terrorist incidents at funeral ceremonies, and the use of conflicts to incite opposition, and the result was defeated.
Titans did not need to be agitated. When he heard the Governor’s order, a large group of bloody, forty-degree fever Wufu immediately rushed into the Governor’s office, strongly protesting this
cowardly, infamous, kneeling surrender to the conquered. "Shameful decision", asking the Governor to retract the order. The words were fierce and the attitude was firm. Many governors refused to accept their golden jade good words. Everyone could only hang in a collective posture to die.
The gentle gentleman Governor made a reasonable response to this: everyone’s opinions will be heard. In order to collect opinions more impartially and objectively, everyone will go to the meeting.
Immediately afterwards, the tea and chairs used for the meeting were moved to the main road lined with wooden piles, bearing disgusting corpses and swarms of mosquitoes. The governor slowly asked every soldier to be
as detailed as possible
and
no "I missed any tiny details", spoke in order, and enjoyed lunch, dinner, supper with the soldiers.
The next day, the Titans Garrison held a mobilization meeting. At the meeting, all the soldiers said that they would abide by the soldier’s pledge, unite closely around the SAR government with the Excellency Governor as the core, and firmly support the work of cleaning up and rectifying the road...
Before waiting for everyone to pick up the chin that fell on the ground, the doors of the activists who were preparing to show their magic at the funeral ceremony were knocked, and the professionals who checked the water meters and sent the couriers to each door came to the service. Then... there will be no more. Everyone is busy for the funeral of the warriors. Who knows or has time to care about a group of prisoners with no name, no files, and only numbers in the prison?
It was not until this time that the saboteurs, including them, realized how much cognitive deviation they had with Roland Dalk, the youngest governor ever, but it was too late. At this time, even people who do not like Roland have to admit it. He did a very good job without making any mistakes.
If he, like Titans, indulges soldiers to kill and set fire, and uses high-pressure terrorist policies to govern the Sarbad District, he will get a stable district in the short term, but the saboteurs will get endless sources of support and all kinds of support. Laughing crazy, they will see the scene where the Charlieman invaders drowned in the sea of ​​rebels. If he is too cowardly, then the development of resistance forces will not be contained, and they will be able to kick Charlie Man's more easily. Krolan did not choose either route. He skillfully used Huairou means and minimal force. Alleviated the opposition between the two sides.
Will not touch the interests of the majority. Most of them are just superficial kung fu and gestures, but the effect is surprisingly good. Taking advantage of this momentum, Roland played a new card-demolition and rectification.
This card was played so suddenly that it made everyone dizzy. Then partly laughed. Some people shook their heads.
The governor is too young after all. After one or two successes, I was immediately ecstatic-this is what the big guys think. The people did not think so much, they just went home silently to prepare the machete, pitchfork, bow and arrow. Give them a "surprise" when the demolition team comes to the door.
The lesson humans have learned from history is that they haven’t learned anything—someone once commented that what happened in the Salbadu district has repeatedly proved the correctness of this view.
The demolition team came to the door on time, and the group that "greeted" them also appeared on time, and then... still not. Then, the militiamen who were ready to swear to defend their homes rushed home and cheered home, picking up all the softness and the fastest as possible. Everything is packed and taken away. Then very sincerely and eagerly invited the demolition team to come to the house for demolition.
It’s not that the demolition team is equipped with an operation magician, which turns the original brave and strong working people into shaking people who like to abuse and torment themselves. People are welcome from the heart of the demolition team-for the demolition compensation of up to 100 Lire coins And a "return certificate" that keeps increasing in value.
Which one is better at learning demolition? Charlie Manludes looks for v.e...
This is just a joke, but it also reflects v.e's position as the international leader in the demolition industry. From the early years of water cuts and embankments, to the later demolition of field artillery, they always walked at the forefront of the times, constantly updating the demolition technology with a persistent spirit. And the "return certificate" is the latest Fool... No, negotiate technology and real estate development business model.
The details of the operation and the greasyness are not known to or cared by the common people, but the poor people who can only see meat eaters at the festival know that someone has bought the relocation certificate at a high price, and it takes only one day to obtain the equivalent of three houses. The price of relocation certificates for large and small lands doubled in the black market-200 livres, and there is a tendency to continue to rise. Everyone's eyes are red, everyone knows what to do...
Whether Castilian farmers love their motherland, yes, like the mother goddess. Are they willing to give their lives to defend their homes and the power to cultivate this land? No doubt, they are willing. But between Roland's fierce silver bullet offensive and poor life, noble sentiments like patriotism can only rely on the side.
The next thing is very simple, the construction of public baths, bathhouses, garden squares, shopping streets, high-end residential areas-land prices rise, more residents-the Government House charges high rents, investment recovery-citizens in the surrounding area petition Demolition-demolition and development again-land prices rise again...
Real estate promotes business prosperity, which in turn promotes various needs. At the same time, it absorbs the young and middle-aged labor force of the society. No one is idle. Social security tends to improve, which in turn increases the momentum of commercial activities. The entire Sarbadian district is moving towards a positive cycle.
Charlemagne is very happy, the Governor is very happy, the investors are very happy, and the ordinary merchants and ordinary people are also very happy. Only the most determined patriots and destructors cast their hatred and sadness on the thriving spectacle of the SAR.
A brutal and greedy governor is abhorrent, but it is necessary for their cause. It is because of the "objects that must be beaten" that people can unite and fight in vain. But a gentle and capable Governor is their nightmare.
Roland performed very well. Through the guidance of a series of actions, he successfully downplayed and disguised his identity as an aggressor, using real money and practical results to make the vast majority of people benefit from his governance. Under his strict orders, the Titans Garrison rectified military discipline. Unless you are attacked and need to defend yourself, you may not use force at will. Even if it is necessary to carry out the task, only limited force can be used, and it is necessary to avoid causing casualties to innocent civilians as much as possible.
So far, there has been no robbery, no murders, no rapes, no military tickets... the evil acts used to seem to have disappeared from the surface overnight, but the old Charlemagne still have a consistent sense of superiority and The Tyrian customs lack sufficient respect. But in the eyes of Castilians, this is much better than in the past. In return for the policy of moderate occupation, the citizens cooperated with the various government decrees of the governor’s office, and the society of layoffs and strikes suddenly fell to zero.
Now anyone can tell that it is in the Salba Du District. The relationship between the occupation forces and the citizens is slowly easing and harmonizing. Although the foundation is relatively weak, there is a lot of room for development. As the development continues, the area will become a "model occupation zone" and the experience will be extended to other occupation zones. Charlemagne will completely digest the occupied area of ​​northern Castile.
Never let things go that way.
The participants agreed. But facing Luo Lan's upright governance. They suddenly found themselves lacking a response.
In the final analysis, what kind of means can people who have seen the light die like them get on the table?
"...Extraordinary times. Only extraordinary means are possible."
"Are you saying... assassination?"
The answer seemed a bit hesitant, not at all like the tone of a person who specializes in dry and wet work.
They did not think of assassination, but the idea was denied by themselves. Not to mention anything else, Roland's performance in many incidents alone, and the conspiracy's vengeful means are enough to make them give up the option of assassination.
"Not by ourselves."
The shadow on the throne raised his head, and half the wrinkled face was exposed under the swaying fire, and his cracked lips came to a conclusion word by word.
"Leave the Governor's itinerary out, and let the fox do the cleaning for us."
##########
The warm tea ran across the throat, and the fragrance spread from the tip of the tongue, but even the finest Darjeeling black tea could not transfer the heat to the heart, nor could it dilute anxiety and disappointment.
After reading the domestic information briefing that he had just started, Roland suddenly had a feeling of crying and laughing.
Some people in the Charlemagne government may not really know or want to know the general trend of the world. Prior to the invasion of Castile, Charlemagne was actually in a period of unclear situation, policy confusion, and confusion on the mainland. Finally, he escaped from the war quagmire led by the northern front and the crown of St. Esteban. As a result, due to the selfishness of individuals and organizations, he stepped into Castilla. As a result, they are unwilling and unable to achieve reconciliation with Albion or the Principality, and they are suspected by Serres and Ymir, nor can they fight against the countries that support Castilla behind the scenes. In the dilemma, choose the "Battle of Guadalajara" as an opportunity that is not an opportunity, desperate, trying to get rid of the dilemma.
In this context, the Economic Intelligence Department, an economic intelligence agency directly under the Prime Minister of Richelieu, submitted 5 articles and 10 volumes of "Castilla Resistance Investigation", which has been classified as "extremely dense" by the Charlemagne government. Only 30 copies of the information were printed, and the contents are as follows:
1. Up to Muyue, the northern part of Castilla occupied by Titans is a major industrial town, but Castilla's economic structure is still the agricultural economic structure dominated by agriculture. Therefore, the occupation of the North will not weaken Castile's resistance to the war. Therefore, in response to this characteristic, it is the best strategy to attract Castilla farmers;
2. Due to the successive defeats, Castilla has been forming an atmosphere of foreign resistance, but at the same time, in order to make up for the losses in the early days of the war and the burden of expanding armaments, the tax rate is increasing significantly, and young and old laborers are recruited to the front. The bottom of Castilian society is very dissatisfied with the sudden increase of the burden, and the whole country is in a very delicate state.
3. The weapons needed for the war certainly cannot come from the countryside, but this is a secondary issue for Castile’s resistance. Now they are replenishing weapons from Albion and the Principality.
4. Based on the above reasons, the war between the two countries can no longer be resolved by military means and can only be resolved by political means.
The above is the central content of the "Castilla Anti-Fighting Forces Investigation". When the report was submitted, the Titans Command in the Tunisian Army expressed its "worthy of hearing" approval, and after the meeting, it was pointed out that "Only us It is not enough for the soldiers to hear this report. The military department and the cabinet should also be listened to." So the Economic Investigation Department rushed back to the country non-stop and began to tour reports.
What about the attitude of the military and high-level officials? When the reporter from the Economic Investigation Department tried to advocate a
political solution
at the headquarters of Titans, a young staff member raised his hand and asked,
In short, what areas of Castilla are needed? Please indicate key areas."
"This country is finished."
Roland, who had always been optimistic, threw the report on the table and sighed.
It is not difficult for anyone with a little sense of common sense to see such a reaction and come to the same conclusion.
One will succeed. The truth placed in that world is bumpy and unbreakable. For the ambitions of soldiers, politicians, and chaebols, sacrifice is always necessary. No matter what is sacrificed is human life and territory. Or something else, as long as you don’t have to sacrifice your own interests, life, and future, it is always acceptable. In order to plan their own future well, war is necessary. The "political solution" is not. So they don't need this kind of "useless" advice.
Crazy thoughts about such a group of brains. What can a dumb and stubborn guy expect?
The only thing that is thankful is that Charlemagne also has some sober people. It is not that the whole country is traversing towards the abyss of destruction.
"The Prime Minister's achievements in the SAR are quite remarkable, especially the strategy of reconciliation. He said that he has time to come and see it in person, and then use the Salbadu SAR as a model to extend the experience here to all occupied areas."
Sitting on Roland's shoulder, q version Li Lin twitched his neck to tease.
"Should I say what you want?"
Roland’s desire is to establish a coexistence system that is very different from the existing system. This special zone is to some extent his ideal test field. Various policies are experimented here, and the system and ideas are diffused by comparing the results, and finally various ethnic groups are realized. Coexistence between countries.
It is not a Titans-style "co-prosperity and coexistence", it is not a colony of the countries of the southern islands, and it is not a Alfheim-style "second class race should be managed", a system that allows different races to coexist on an equal basis.
It may seem too idealistic, but as long as you carefully cultivate this seed, it may one day become a towering tree.
However, the distant future cannot be taken into consideration at this moment, and there is still much to be done urgently.
"When will those production equipment be available?"
"Next week, it can't be any faster, who will keep you from getting here by train?"
"Who was patrolling the fraud at the beginning, and the railway was only repaired 10 kilometers?"
He teased his adoptive father mercilessly, and finally a smile appeared on his tired and hazy face.
So far, Roland has used the infrastructure construction and real estate investment boom to promote the economic development of the SAR, but he never thought of using these methods as the long-term development direction of the SAR, which is at best a temporary stopgap measure.
The money that comes easily also goes fast. Roland takes this for granted. Prosperity built on hot money investment like this cannot be long-term, and it is far from enough to rely on a moderate occupation policy and short-term economic boom.
Like a castle made of sand sculptures, the waves disappear without a trace. If you want to truly achieve long-term prosperity, you must have a solid foundation.
This foundation is the physical industry.
Just like Yalfheim, although most people are impressed with the financial strength and powerful influence of the consortium, the real biggest capital of the elf camp is not a pile of gold coins and a strong defense force, but a whole industrial system. . Relying on strong R&D innovation and production capacity, the elf camp maintains absolute leadership in both economic and technological fields, and then transforms it into other levels of advantageous interests.
Roland did not think that Li Lin would assist him with a complete industrial system. The knowledge and professional skills of Castilian nationals could not support that kind of tall stuff. What he needed was related production equipment for the military industry.
The production of munitions and arms is a well-known high-profit industry in industrial production. According to the current ammunition consumption of Titans, it is increasingly difficult to meet the actual demand from domestic production equipment and then transported to the front line, and the cost is too high. . Therefore, on the grounds of
meeting front-line needs
, the use of Sarbad’s superior geographical location to build some factories can not only persuade the upper classes, but also avoid touching the interests of the consortium, and incurring obstruction.
Of course ~EbookFREE.me~ Roland will not think that long-term prosperity can be guaranteed by being a supplier of military supplies alone. This is just the first step to start the development of the industry. The development of the munitions industry will drive other civilian production enterprises, and eventually make Salbadu a manufacturing center, whether it is civilian or military products. Can occupy a place in the market.
In another world, this strategy had been successful. Japan, which was once blown into ruins by the ghosts of the United States, was able to get the first pot of gold through the huge military orders of the Korean War, laying the foundation for future economic miracles.
Can Roland reproduce this case? For now, he has a great chance.
but--
"You have to be careful."
"what happened?"
"Next week, His Highness the Fourth Prince will arrive in the city of Salbadu."
Li Lin raised her lips and said:
"Don't you think that this is a good mobile phone meeting for mischievous people?" (To be continued...)
