Start with Planetary Governor

Chapter 396, Feiyi Shipyard

It was not true that little Peddes had no means of resistance. On the entire planet, he can theoretically mobilize some local governments, some planet-controlled enterprises, and even the properties he and his brother purchased privately.

He is still the planetary governor and can do anything in name.

However, although he is a fool, he is not really stupid.

He could easily assess that if they really wanted to cause trouble, he could indeed cause some trouble to Gu Hang, but it would only be trouble.

Even this kind of trouble does not reach the level of Gu Hang himself. Their professional bureaucrats immediately settled the matter.

And what price will he pay?

It's your own life.

At this point, little Peddes no longer has any fantasies in his mind.

He clearly understood that he had no safety guarantee at all and Gu Hang could kill him at any time.

Declaring him guilty and unable to serve as governor, and then saying 'unfortunately' that he suddenly died of illness or 'suicide out of fear of crime', and then reporting a new candidate for governor... This kind of thing happened too many times. Even sometimes, when the star domain government is too lazy to go through the long process of removing the governor, it will do this.

Of course, there is a political price to pay for killing him in this way, but this price is definitely something Gu Hang can bear. The Star Territory Government may reprimand Gu Hang for this, and may even impose punitive measures, but it won't be too serious.

Being in a different place, little Peddes felt that he would definitely take action.

So he is scared to death now.

Gu Hang, as the leader of the sector, issued a reprimand order and gave him a month. He now understands that this month is certainly not for him to re-form the government, but for him to think it over carefully.

He quickly conveyed his thoughts of bowing his head to Gu Hang through some channels.

Just like in the past, he could accept being an empty governor and not caring about anything. All matters related to the planet were left to the district government. He promised that he would be a mascot just like before.

However, the words he sent were as if they were lost in the ocean, with no response.

He watched as the sector government quickly took over various powers of the planetary government, including taking over various cities and regions, sealing up the personal properties he and his brother had left behind, and most importantly, taking over the Winged Star. There are two star ports and a shipyard.

In the meantime, he had countless opportunities to use his hands and feet to make moves, but little Peddes was like an ostrich, burying his head and doing nothing.

He thought more than once, how can he survive this disaster?

Why has he expressed his stance but received no response?

One of his staff then gave him some analysis.

"I'm afraid what Boss Gu wants is more than just you being a mascot or a rubber stamp. Now the entire Pegasus sector and all the worlds have joined the alliance, and the sector and the alliance are almost equivalent. To this extent. Now, don’t you know what Gu Hang wants? Do you still think you can just be a mascot?”

"You mean, let me take the initiative to join the alliance with the Winged Star?"

The staff member shook his head: "I'm afraid it still won't work."

"Isn't that what you said when Gu Hang wants Feiyi Xing to join the alliance?"

"But it can't be you. What is the essence of why he wants Winged Star to join the alliance? It is to better control the entire world. You yourself are the obstacle to this matter. You will not really obey him, and he will not I won’t believe it.”

Little Peddes was already very irritable, and with a little bit of madness under fear: "What on earth is going to happen? Does he just want me to die?! If that's the case, I will fight him to the death! Even if I really die, Even if I have to bite off two hairs from his body!"

"Resign from the position of Governor of Winged Star." the staff said.

"what?"

"Resign as Governor of the Winged Star and leave here." The staff continued to advise.

"Absolutely not!" Little Peddes angrily pushed the staff member and asked with red eyes, "Did you join Gu Hang? Did you come to dig a hole for me? Huh?!"

The pushed staff stood up, patted himself, and said slowly: "The first half of your sentence is right, I will indeed work for the alliance government in the future; but the second half is wrong, I did not dig for you. Pit, this is the last time I will give you advice as a staff member. Let go now. If you want to pay a sum of money, hundreds of thousands of tax coins, Gu Hang should still be willing to let you take it away. With this money, you have My brother’s connections in Yunluo will protect you, and you can still live the life of a rich man. Hundreds of thousands of tax coins may have been disdainful to you in the past, but as far as life is concerned, even if you live quite luxuriously, It’s enough to take a lifetime.”

"If you miss this last month's opportunity, then the last thing I can do for you is to wait until one month later to collect your body."

……

"Little Pedsi is gone?" Gu Hang asked casually.

"Yes." Zhang Lingdian responded cautiously.

Gu Hang patted his shoulder and said, "Relax, Osena said you have always performed very well, why can't you let go in front of me?"

Zhang Lingdian forced a smile and said, "It's a big responsibility and I don't dare to neglect it."

"It's good to be aware of your responsibilities. Relax, let's talk about something unimportant first, let's talk about little Pedro."

"Yes. Little Peter's ship left port yesterday. We confiscated most of his property, but we still left some loose money for him to let him leave with peace of mind to avoid further trouble. The part of the property he took away It’s about 400,000 tax coins, so it shouldn’t cause us any more trouble in the future.”

"Okay, this guy is lucky. He has a good brother. He has been a governor who only has fun and does not do anything for more than ten years. He can still be a rich man for most of his life. However, I hope he can make some progress in the future, otherwise I can’t keep my own wealth.”

"Yes."

"Let's get down to business." "Yes."

The business the two of them wanted to talk about was none other than the biggest asset on the Flying Wing Star - the Flying Wing Shipyard.

Speaking of Zhang Lingdian, he was one of the hundred outstanding students from the Flying Wing Star that his mother sent to help when Gu Hang and his mother initially reached a mutual understanding.

At that time, although there was reconciliation, Gu Hang still did not completely trust his old mother. He didn't take these one hundred people seriously at first, and left them all to Oceana, asking her to look after the arrangements and do low-level clerical work.

But the alliance at that time was quite short of people. It is evident that former refugee leaders like Patel were able to manage an industrial center. Although many of these top students from Feiyi Star are enjoying themselves and are struggling in low-level jobs, those who work hard and are willing to do things well can always make a difference.

Zhang Lingdian is such a person.

He was not given any preferential treatment at all, and even because he was an outsider and because he was initially considered a 'spy' sent by Gu Hang's mother, he was suppressed within the alliance's officialdom. However, he has still achieved outstanding results in any position for a long time in the past.

These achievements cannot be ignored. There are clear standards for the league's rank recognition and the performance evaluation of government officials. He does well, works conscientiously, is ranked well, and always achieves results. So how can he be promoted when the league is generally very short of clerical talents?

In other words, the league's system has been very hard on him, and many of his achievements are not as good as his, and he has been promoted very quickly.

Later, as the relationship between Gu Hang and his mother further eased and even merged, and it became clear that there was indeed nothing special about them. It was Gu Hang and his mother who really couldn't stand the group of scumbags and grass-roots men under him, so she found some poor graduates from major colleges in Feiyi Star and directly signed fifteen-year long contracts. They were sent here en masse.

There are many universities on Winged Star - this is also an important foreign exchange-generating industry on Winged Star. Not only many powerful people in Winged Star, not just in the Tianma star district will send students here, and even some from other star districts. People also come here to study.

There are more than 30,000 universities, ranging from technical subjects to liberal arts, and have trained countless talents.

But with a large number of graduates, not everyone has a good place to go.

For people like Zhang Lingdian, whose family conditions are not good and who rely on their own ability, various scholarships and academic loans to study all the way, the pressure is even greater. After graduation, they have to start repaying the loans.

For graduates on the Flying Wing Star, Gu's Trading Company is the best place to go, and the number of recruitment quotas every year is overwhelming. It’s a fifteen-year long contract and going to an unknown place, so that’s what I’m going to do.

This is how Zhang Lingdian came to be.

After the background was clear, the talents among the hundred of them who had done well and had long been on the list of the Alliance Organization Department began to rise like a rocket. Zhang Lingdian was the fastest one and even entered the Prime Minister's Office. , became one of Oceana's important right-hand men. Up to now, Gu Hang had even brought him forward and took charge of his role on his own.

The reason why he was chosen was because Gu Hang still fully trusted the judgment of the [system]. Zhang Lingdian is a talent who was enlightened in the [Hero] panel very early. His qualifications are not low, and he upgrades quite quickly. With his loyalty guaranteed, Gu Hang simply activated it more boldly.

Under the alliance system, the position of 'Planetary Governor' is unimportant. Although, in the imperial registration, this is the highest officer of the planet, and can even be regarded as the owner of the planet. But in fact, under the alliance's system, this can only be regarded as an honorary title at best, not even considered. The person who truly holds the power is the planetary leader of the Alliance Government.

Moreover, the planetary chief of the Alliance is completely different from the planetary governor of the Empire.

They are purely the chief executives under the alliance government and hold administrative power. Moreover, the alliance government has very strict control over the planetary governments. In addition to the planetary leaders who want to be accountable upwards, the various agencies of the planetary government, such as the Organization Department, Commerce Department, Development Department, Industry Department and other departments, are not responsible for the planetary government. In addition to the jurisdiction of the chief minister, it also comes under the vertical jurisdiction of the Union ministries.

The planetary chief has no power to interfere with military power;

Work such as legislation, judiciary, law enforcement, as well as auditing, anti-corruption, internal affairs, etc. are also the work of the Union Legal Affairs Tribunal. They are the work of Lambert, the Supreme Justice, and are theoretically independent from the government. The planetary leader cannot interfere.

Under the centralized system of the Alliance, there is no possibility for planetary leaders to be independent.

But despite this, the location remains important. Economic development and administrative management all depend on him.

Gu Hang still has great expectations for Zhang Lingdian, otherwise he would not have allowed the young man to take on such an important responsibility at a young age.

And Zhang Lingdian did live up to Gu Hang's expectations.

His first mission was completed very well.

As the most important asset on the entire planet, Feiyingxing Shipyard is now under the control of Zhang Lingdian.

The production capacity of the entire shipyard has also been found out.

Feiyingxing Shipyard has a large construction cycle of about four years and can produce one Musician-class cruiser, eight destroyers, 1 frigates, plus various types of patrol ships and civilian merchant ships. The total output value of this cycle can reach 8 billion tax coins, which on average is 20 billion tax coins a year.

Of course, that's the production value. In fact, some parts need to be purchased, and a large amount of raw materials, and even the processing of raw materials, are completed elsewhere. These procurement costs must also be factored in.

But despite this, in general, the annual profit is about 25 billion.

The Flying Wing Shipyard is the absolute pillar industry that supports the entire Flying Wing Star. It not only withstands most of the high taxes at development level 5, but also allows the 80 billion people on the planet to live a pretty good life because of it. living standard.

The value of this shipyard is not comparable to the one on Raging Owl now. If Nuxiao Shipyard wants to develop to this level, even with the addition of black technology, it will take a long time.

What's more, now that they are all in hand, there is no reason why Gu Hang's black technology should not be used in Feiyi Shipyard.

[Shipyard]'s architectural special effects can be exchanged and put up to increase production efficiency; some unreasonable designs can be reformed according to the shipyard's blueprint; some parts that could not be produced by oneself can now be processed by oneself, and there is no need to buy them from Buy from distant places through trade, or even rush to buy...

These can improve the efficiency of the flying wing shipyard and significantly reduce costs.

Once the Feiyi Shipyard is in Gu Hang's hands, it will be much more effective than before.

Of course, even if he owns Feiyi Shipyard, it does not mean that Gu Hang will give up the development of Nuxiao Shipyard.

Going hand in hand is not a bad thing.
