Cosma Empire

Chapter 454 Court Council [Part 1]

What went wrong so that the high-level decrees could not be implemented and fully implemented?

In fact, Magus didn't say this truth, but all the politicians present knew it well - interests.

The transfer of benefits caused some artificial obstacles in the process of implementing the government order from the top down. When Magus demanded the full implementation of the prohibition order, the owner of a brewery without a license spent a little money to find his relatives. For the sake of money, his relatives found him a local official in charge of this area. Under the double "coercion" of favors and interests, the official had to give the green light to the brewery.

Granting the green light requires cost, such as regulation costs and labor costs. It is certainly impossible for the coerced official to pay for this cost himself, so he will recommend this certain person to the upper-level figures. For the upper-level people, if they intervene or not intervene in a big thing that is unlikely to affect them, it will not have any negative effects, but intervening will bring considerable benefits. Putting the money in his pocket, he opened an umbrella to shield the ants under his feet from the holy light that could burn paramecium.

At this time, there will be two situations. In the first situation, the paramecia are afraid that one day the umbrella may not be able to block the holy light and make them the nourishment of the earth, so they encourage the upper class to change to a bigger umbrella. For this reason, they are willing to provide more benefits, and even take the initiative to clear the way for this upper class figure in exchange for their own protection. So this upper-level person changed to a bigger umbrella. Under the umbrella, there were not only the mad dogs at his feet who had gained room to grow and evolve, but also other people.

In the second case, facing the increase of these benefit providers and more benefits, the upper-level person's ambitions began to expand, and he was no longer satisfied with holding the umbrella by himself, so he began to contact more people to hold the umbrella together, and Form a network, a complete benefit delivery network, in exchange for your own maximum value.

No matter what the situation is, in the end, due to the relationship of interests, the decree cannot be implemented at the grassroots level. Not to mention far away places, in the imperial capital alone, there are more than 30 bars that have not obtained a liquor license and are selling spirits openly. Even for those bars that have obtained liquor licenses, it is very likely that the liquor licenses in their hands were not obtained before the first Prohibition was issued, but were obtained illegally in various ways.

Who caused this situation?

There is no doubt that it is the city hall of the imperial capital, the management of the city. Maybe their original idea was not to get more money in this way, maybe they just wanted to make their political career look better, and they wanted to have a few sets of more decent clothes for themselves so that their wives could buy one more Necklace, let children have more toys.

It is actually not easy to be a politician. Their daily contacts will make their salary dwarf. That meager salary cannot support the daily expenses of a politician working in the imperial capital. Mags knows this, Powers knows it, all politicians know it. That's why Magus didn't point out this point. Under the ruthless plundering of the old party, it's not a big deal to collect a little bit of other people's political donations.

A umbrella, a network of relationships, and finally a huge chapter of the network to prevent high-level government orders from being implemented, so this topic has returned to the original point, where is the problem?

After Magus raised this question, no one answered it, not because it couldn't be answered, but because it couldn't be answered.

He captured the weakness of these people in one sentence, because they are different.

The difference is that politicians of noble origin and businessman origin do not need to consider the issue of "bribery" and "accepting bribes". For example, Magus himself is of great noble origin. Before forming a new party and usurping power, he owned hundreds of thousands of acres of land, and more than 200,000 people lived in his territory. The property he owned was enough to form a huge business group. Even if you give him one million, in his opinion, it may be the normal household expenditure in the past three to five months,

He couldn't be tempted at all.

On the contrary, these politicians of civilian origin are the ones who need to accept bribes, and they are also the first group of people who are attacked by capitalists waving banknotes-they are short of money.

"Back to our topic, the killings we have seen are positive for us and for this society. At least we know that in the past half a month, a large number of criminals have returned to hell instead of continuing to To poison this empire, to poison our people, should be a good thing, not a bad thing. Also, I would like to ask everyone, has anyone called the police about this? Has anyone marched about it?"

He smiled and shook his head, "No!"

"Gentlemen, this is a very special period, a process that is undergoing transformation and has not yet found an exit. We reserve the right to sue their actions, but we will stand aside and watch what they have done calmly.", Magus began to guide these people and instill his own ideas, "They are a knife that helps us eliminate some evils that we can't do anything about temporarily. When they get out of control and turn into evils, it's our turn to eliminate them."

"As for Mr. Du Lin's approach, I only represent my personal opinion, which is affirmative. Besides, he didn't order anyone to do anything. Everything was done spontaneously under the temptation of capital interests."

"In addition, Mr. Dulin talked to me two days ago about how to prove that an imperial citizen is an imperial citizen. Through our chat and discussion, I realized that there are some things in our country that we didn't think of. , There is no place to see. Mr. Dühring asked me a question, how to prove that an imperial citizen is a real imperial citizen. I admit that I have fallen into a cycle that I cannot get out of."

"I told him that only the relatives and friends of the citizen need to provide proof to prove that the imperial citizen is an imperial citizen. But then I realized another problem, how to prove that his relatives and friends are also imperial citizens, if According to my thoughts, maybe this question will never be answered, because the answer is too scary. Then Mr. Dühring told me his idea, which is to issue a certificate for the citizens of the empire to prove their identity .”

After he finished speaking, he closed his mouth and picked up a cup of tea. The release of this news requires a process of acceptance by everyone. In the past, like many nobles, Magus had kept a lot of slaves. These slaves don't need to pay them any salary, they just need to keep them from starving to death, and they will keep working and working until they can't. He will fasten a chain to each slave, and there is a small metal card on the chain, indicating the name and owner of the slave, as well as the number registered with the slave general office.

Now if identity certificates are issued to citizens of the empire, will it arouse some people's resentment and cause a tsunami of public opinion?

He himself has no idea, after all, this kind of thing is indeed a bit embarrassing, but it also has many benefits if it is done well. The basis of a country is its citizens, statistics and registration will be of great convenience in the management of these citizens. In particular, the establishment of a complete file proposed by Du Lin, Magus felt that it was very necessary.

A person's life trajectory from birth will be reflected in a document. It is clear at a glance what good deeds he has done and what bad deeds he has done. When one day he has a certain value to this society, people will be able to interpret from that file whether his current social value is real or illusory. It also acts as a deterrent to potential criminals.

When they intend to commit a crime, they should know that if they are arrested for a crime, this stain will accompany them for the rest of their lives. They will have difficulty finding well-paying jobs, they will have no daughters from legitimate families who want to associate with them, and they will no longer have even some of the rights enjoyed by citizens. The higher cost of crime is one of the best ways to reduce crime. He and Dooling talked a lot, so he will throw this idea at today's meeting.

Soon the conference hall fell into heated discussions. I am afraid that for some time in the future, apart from voting, this will be the main work to come.

Du Lin didn't know that some people wanted to fight against him in a way he couldn't think of, and he didn't expect Magus to promote this matter more actively than him. He just did some simple work in the whole thing, and then added The Internet has just expressed its vision for the future of these jobs.

Magus told him that the city of Odis can establish an identity system first, and if there are no major problems, it will find a way to promote it to the society.

In the eyes of Du Lin and Magus, the possible resistance is not reflected in Odis City. The labor certificate is a good way for everyone to accept new things. Even some non-workers want to join the labor union to obtain a labor certificate. After all, with this thing, you can get an extra dollar every month anyway.

For those businessmen and capitalists, they may not be willing to bend down to pick up a dollar, but for ordinary working-class people, this is three or even four days of food expenses. Moreover, I heard that the workers' union has formulated a system of "service seniority". The working class with more than two years of service will have one year of service. There is a six-point subsidy for the length of service, but ten years is sixty points!

If you work for 20 or 30 years, wouldn't you be able to earn an extra dollar or two a month?

As for when it will be implemented..., it may take a while.

A few years, or ten years.

But early registration is definitely not wrong!
