Chapter One Thousand and Forty-Eight: Re-election
Knowing that none of the high-level officials of the new home plan signed up, they all knew very well the future plan of the empire, and knew that the water was very deep.
What's more, this matter involves the brothers Xu Qian and Xu Wentao.
After the construction of the new home, the high-level of the empire will definitely move away, and the best person on Mars is Xu Wentao, and at that time, the power in Xu Wentao's hands will rise directly.
Emperor Xu Qian will definitely leave the means of checks and balances, including this election of the prime minister, if there is a mention of running for the election, it is obvious that they will participate in those who know the roots.
As a result, no one participated, everyone had their own little Jiujiu in their hearts, and not participating in the affairs of the royal family was an iron rule in many people's families.
Qiao Tongguang, Minister of Science and Technology, received two reminders from Emperor Xu Qian.
Qiao Tongguang was in a dilemma, and finally Ou and the emperor made it clear that his father had a strict order not to let him participate in the affairs of the royal family.
Qiao Yicheng, the founding marquis of the Star Spirit Empire, is Qiao Tongguang's father.
After following Xu Ping'an for so many years, I know Xu Ping'an's temperament very well, what Xu Ping'an hates the most is that others interfere in the affairs of the royal family, look at how many people who interfered in the affairs of the royal family back then.
All of them died, and 90 percent of them didn't end up well.
Therefore, I had already told Qiao Tongguang that I would rather be demoted than participate in the affairs of the royal family.
Not only did Qiao Tongguang do this, but Ding Zhijun's son, Ding Hanzhong, the minister of the Imperial Ministry of Industry, was also the same, and he did not participate in the affairs of the royal family.
There is also Guo Changhe's youngest son, Guo Xiaoren, who is now the mayor of Phantom City, and he also expressed his refusal to participate in this matter with Xu Qian.
The person who can go to the top of the empire, that one is not a human spirit, since ancient times, the people who participated in the emperor's family affairs have not ended well, and they all know this truth very well.
Even in the face of the temptation of the prime minister, they resisted.
On this day, Xu Wentao was called to the Star Palace by Xu Qian, and the two did not talk in the room but in the garden.
"Did you expect this situation today" Xu Qian looked at Xu Wentao and said, not to mention how greasy it was.
Xu Wentao smiled and looked at Xu Qian and said, "Big brother, to tell you the truth, I really didn't expect this, my original plan was to lie dormant honestly for two years, so that you and my father can rest assured of me."
"There are only three people who have signed up to run for prime minister, and I have thought of this in my heart, and as things change, I am really a little happy."
"I know very well in my heart the level of the three of them, and I believe that the eldest brother also knows their level, being a mayor is qualified, and if you want to become the prime minister, they are very lacking in overall vision and overall planning."
"As for the others, I'm sure none of them will want to get involved in the matter between our brothers."
At this moment, Xu Wentao was telling the truth, Xu Qian rubbed his head, the second child was too a bastard, and he actually saw through this matter.
"Big brother, to be honest, I really don't have the heart to compete with you."
"Or there used to be, but I definitely don't have it now"
"I dare to bet with you, at a certain point, my father will directly take action to wipe out all my efforts in one fell swoop," Xu Wentao said with a long sigh.
Xu Qian paused for a moment, and then smiled, which Xu Qian also took into account.
As long as Xu Wentao does not rebel, Xu Qian cannot make a death move to Xu Wentao, and if Xu Qian does a death hand, it is estimated that everyone in the top echelons of the empire will be in danger.
There is only one person who can be ruthless to Xu Wentao, and that is Xu Ping'an, for the stability of the Star Spirit Empire, Xu Ping'an can only be ruthless at a certain time.
Lao Tzu cleaned up his son, and it was righteous, and no one could say anything.
"Let's talk about it, what are you going to do after you are re-elected," Xu Qian said helplessly.
"Big brother, there is a certain amount of I can rest assured, I will not compete with the Imperial Division, I don't have that ambition anymore"
"After the success of the New Home project, the road to the Empire was opened, and there were other habitable planets near the New Home, not just one habitable planet."
"Even if there is an interest that is not suitable for human habitation, with the scientific and technological strength of the Star Spirit Empire, it can be transformed into suitable for human habitation."
"Now it takes decades to get from the Star Spirit Empire to the new home, but with the development of technology, this time is shrinking little by little, and in the future, I am not surprised that the voyage between the two places will be shortened to one year."
"What I want to do, you know, my father knows, but do you see my father stopping me?"
"Because my father knows that you have a problem, you are too stable, and you only do it when you think about 100% victory, so you will miss a lot of opportunities"
"The relationship between the countries of the earth is changing rapidly, they are rotten, and it can only be a great scourge to stay"
"Now although the countries of the earth have signed an agreement to reduce the starships, you haven't noticed it, big brother, they have not really scrapped the starships, but have been arranged as an abandoned fortress."
"Moreover, they are fully automating the construction plant, and after the upgrade is completed, the speed of building starships can be reduced by nearly three months"
"At the same time, according to the Ministry of Intelligence, they are also working on the design of a new generation of starships"
"Sooner or later, a big war is inevitable"
"What I want to do is to hasten the arrival of this big war, when we cut off the armaments of the countries of the earth in one fell swoop, you can only develop self-defense forces, and you cannot have military forces beyond the regulations"
"In this way, the solar system can become the backyard of our Star Spirit Empire," Xu Wentao said everything he wanted to say.
Xu Qian understood what Xu Wentao meant, because there are some things that Xu Wentao can do, but Xu Gan, as the emperor, can't do, and some rules must be followed, otherwise, it will cause everyone to be uneasy.
"Let's talk about the current employment and economic problems, if this problem is not solved, even if you are re-elected, you will be impeached," Xu Qian changed the topic and asked directly.
"Actually, this problem is easy to solve, I just need to ............................. In this way, the employment pressure will be greatly relieved, and in two years, I will not have to worry about it."
"There are countless jobs in the new home," Xu Wentao said easily.
"Hmph," Xu Qian snorted very unhappily.
Xu Wentao smiled, picked up the teapot and filled the eldest brother with tea, and then picked up his cup and looked at Xu Qian.
"You, I really owe you money in my last life" After Xu Qian finished speaking, he picked up the cup and took a sip with Xu Wentao's cup.
We clinked cups of tea together, and this matter was booked.
Xinghai City, Xu Ping'an's manor, Xu Ping'an, Dalina, Isabella, and Miao Yiyi were playing cards, and Song Xinyun was sitting next to Xu Ping'an watching.
"Now that the Imperial Chancellor has a difficult birth, aren't you in a hurry at all?" asked Isabella.
"I'm retired, and now my main job is to accompany my wife, and if there is anything for their brothers to discuss on their own, this little thing can't be done, and they have to be punished," Xu Ping'an said indifferently.
Several women looked at each other, all smiling bitterly.
"Now there are many parliamentarians who have publicly expressed their opinions, please come out of the mountain to solve this matter," Song Xinyun said on the side.
"Put away your careful thoughts, this is our retirement place, don't play with your heart" Xu Ping'an glared at Song Xinyun and turned his head to continue playing cards.
With a "snap", the angry Song Xinyun hit Xu Ping'an directly on the arm.
Everyone else also understands, after all, Xu Qian is Song Xinyun's son, and it is impossible not to care.
Other women are all laughing and don't participate, Xu Ping'an is very annoyed that they participate in political matters, so under normal circumstances, several women don't participate in these.
A small episode passed quickly.
On this day, the Star Palace issued a notice that the Emperor invited the Speaker of the National Assembly and the Minister of Justice to the Star Palace to discuss the issue of the post of Prime Minister, and the results would be announced to the public.
The media immediately forwarded this announcement, and it can be said that the current difficult birth of the post of prime minister is something that the top and bottom of the Star Spirit Empire are very worried about.
There is no need to worry about chaos in the empire, because the system of the empire is here, and the emperor can directly take over all power if necessary.
The people are worried about the direction of the imperial policy, if the surplus policy is greatly reduced, it will affect many families, and even the quality of life of some families will be directly reduced by two grades.
It's a matter of oneself, and it's impossible not to worry.
Two days passed, and the Star Palace once again issued an announcement, summoning Xu Wentao to the Star Palace to report on his work and accept the tripartite inquiry of the emperor, the speaker, and the minister of justice.
After the news came out, many people breathed a sigh of relief, because Xu Wentao's governing philosophy is to support the birth plan, and if Xu Wentao is re-elected, all problems will not be a problem.
This is the idea of ordinary people, the idea of the top is very simple, Xu Wentao's re-election is a foregone conclusion, for the stability of the empire, there is really only Xu Wentao as a suitable candidate at this moment.
Sure enough, a day later, the Star Palace announced that Premier Xu Wentao could continue to serve for a second term, but only after triple approval from the people, the National Assembly and the emperor.
The first step, the referendum, will soon open an online voting session, if Xu Wentao's support rate does not reach 40%, the referendum will fail.
If it exceeds forty percent, it means that the people of the Star Spirit Empire support Xu Wentao's re-election.
In the second step, after Xu Wentao passes the referendum, he will go to the National Assembly to defend himself, and after the National Assembly passes, it will be submitted to the emperor for approval.
In the third step, the emperor will talk to Xu Wentao, and if Xu Wentao convinces the emperor, the emperor will approve Xu Wentao to make an exception for another term.
No one wants to stay out of the matter, give you the right to choose, if you pass Xu Wentao's re-election, don't say that the royal family plays small tricks.
Many people shook their heads helplessly and smiled bitterly, this is the trick that the great god came up with, this hand is too clever.
Once Xu Wentao is re-elected as an exception, no one can use this excuse to attack the prime minister and the emperor in the future, let alone the imperial family.
Because it's the people's decision.
Two days passed slowly, and the government website opened a voting session, and all the people of the Star Spirit Empire who legally had the right to vote could vote for a week.
Time passed day by day, and a week passed quickly, and the results were also released, and the votes in favor of Xu Wentao's exceptional re-election were 57.2 percent.
Seeing this result, many people let out a long sigh, Xu Wentao was re-elected.
The congressmen did not dare to embarrass Xu Wentao at all, if they dared to engage in small means in this matter, it would really be against the will of the people, and the reputation of the parliamentarians would be even more stinky.
Three days later, Xu Wentao entered the Imperial Capitol and began to be questioned by lawmakers, explaining the problems he wanted to solve.
Three hours later, the speaker of the parliament announced that Xu Wentao would report to the emperor for approval through the congressional inquiry.
A day later, Xu Wentao went to the Star Palace to make a defense, and sure enough, the emperor approved it.
At the press conference, Xu Qian announced one thing, Xu Wentao promised himself that he would reduce the unemployment rate of the empire within two years, and if he failed to do this, he would directly exercise the right of veto.
Xu Wentao was stripped of his premiership and submitted to the National Assembly for review.
With Xu Gan's explanation, it has already been shown that Xu Qian did not release water and was dedicated to the country, so you have no excuse to oppose this matter.
In this way, Xu Wentao announced the beginning of his new term as prime minister.
The Star Spirit Empire has calmed down, everything is back to normal, and all departments are moving away normally, and the efficiency has also improved.
When the top level is stable, the country is also stable.
People, after all, are social creatures.
Time slowly passed a month, and the Government Council issued two announcements,
The first, the redemption of 1 trillion stars of government bonds will start in a week, and everyone who holds government bonds can go to designated banks to redeem them.
A one-time payment with principal and interest is payable within 15 days.
When the 1 trillion star coin treasury bonds of that year arrived, they were paid directly, which said that the Star Spirit Empire's finances were not bad for money.
This is the signal that Xu Wentao wants to convey to the Star Spirit Empire and even the countries of the earth.
The second announcement is that the birth policy of the Star Spirit Empire will not change, and it will continue to be implemented unswervingly.
After this announcement was issued, many people who were still worried began to feel at ease, and this was an explicit announcement by the government, and there must be no mistake.
When the Star Spirit Empire experienced this incident, the operation of the Iron Tree Mountain base did not stop at all, and everything went according to the plan in an orderly manner.
In recent months, there has been a lot of equipment and materials that have been teleported.
There are not many personnel, only 5,000 troops have been transmitted, and many constructions are not in place, so only so many people can be transported for the time being.
Time passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye, half a year had passed since Xu Wentao was in power, and the Star Spirit Empire had not changed much, but the new home planet had changed very much.
The new city construction has taken on a scale and is named Xinghuo City, which means that the spark can start a prairie fire.
Water plants, power plants, communication companies, and hydrogen energy plants have all been fully prepared and put into operation, and the living conditions have also been greatly improved.
Rows of residential buildings have risen from the ground, unified 12 storeys high, there are more than 100 buildings, the divisions are scattered and orderly, the internal structure is unified into one bedroom, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom, and each floor has 40 rooms.
It is close to the industrial area, which is convenient for the workers who come later.
It is located in the heart of the city, which is convenient for future urban development.
According to the plan, these buildings are temporary, only rented and not sold, and will be demolished when the follow-up personnel come to develop to a certain extent.
At present, these buildings have begun to be connected to water and electricity, and simple painting work has begun.
The city's renewable resource factory is also already under construction, and it is expected to be completed in about four months, and it is believed that by that time, the Star Spirit Empire will send a large number of people.
Earth, the fragile arms reduction treaty has not been implemented at all, or rather, the P5 has not implemented it, and it is announced that the XX starship will be decommissioned and dismantled, but in fact it has not been dismantled.
On the contrary, other countries have been enforced to enforce the rule of no more than two starships, and sanctions will be imposed if they are not cut, and Japan and the ANZ alliance have been jointly sanctioned by the P5.
After only three months of sanctions, the two countries could not bear it and began to dismantle the redundant starships under the supervision of the overseers sent by the P5.
The high-level hearts of the two countries are dripping blood, but there is no way, these days, a big fist is the truth.
This month, just after the P5 announced the lifting of sanctions, the domestic economy began to pick up, and in just four months, the losses were as high as tens of billions.
Outside the solar system, the universe is deep space.
It has been more than ten years since the day an alien spider-like aircraft flew in space, and at the speed of the spaceship, it has spanned several galaxies.
The spacecraft has also suffered from some cosmic rays and electromagnetic storms, and needs to find a suitable planet to stop for repairs.
On this day, another planet suitable for the survival of spider civilization personnel landed, and according to the scan before landing, there was no living life on the entire planet.
This is very strange, supposedly, it is not suitable for landing in this situation, but now that the spacecraft has to be repaired, it will not work without landing.
No one knows if there is a suitable planet ahead, and this planet is the best choice.
After the spacecraft landed at a suitable location, it immediately changed to a defensive posture and flew out twelve aircraft to land in twelve directions around the spacecraft.
It didn't take long for the connection between them to be formed, and at the same time, to the main ship, a defensive protective net appeared, enveloping the spaceship within a kilometer of the surrounding area.
Underground, an invisible electrostatic grid is also generated, which is very safe.
At the moment when the ship landed, under a large mountain, there were some buildings remaining, shrouded in darkness.
When the ship's shield activated, two pairs of shimmering eyes appeared in the darkness.
