Chapter 957: Title
Gavin talked to Xu Wentao for almost two hours before leaving, and after seeing Gavin away, Xu Wentao returned to the room, poured himself a glass of wine again, and went directly to the balcony.
The sea breeze blew Xu Wentao's hair, looking at the stars in the sky, Xu Wentao's mind was very confused, whether to continue to be drunk and dream to death, or to rise up and return to the Star Spirit Empire.
Xu Wentao had a hard time making a choice.
After Gavin left and returned to the hotel, he opened his laptop and started to video with Xu Ping'an, telling all his conversations with Xu Wentao.
"Do you really think Xu Wentao will return to the Star Spirit Empire," Gavin asked.
A smile appeared on Xu Ping'an's face on the screen, "Gavin, he is my son, although he has less time with me, I know him very well"
"Wen Tao has a little emotion, which is understandable, but now that you have explained it to him, he knows very well what he should do."
"The throne of the Star Spirit Empire is still very attractive, I don't believe he can really put it down."
"What do you think, Xu Wentao's renunciation of the right to inherit the throne will not cause open and secret battles between their brothers, isn't it good?"
"Could it be that you really want to see the open and secret rivalry between their brothers develop into an enemy relationship," Gavin said with a frown, not understanding Xu Ping'an's thoughts.
"Gavin, as long as the countries of the earth are capable, they are all fighting the idea of the Star Spirit Empire"
"I don't dare to be blatant now, it's because we people exist, and once we die, what will it be like"
"How can there be no strongman to ensure that the Star Spirit Empire continues to be strong"
"Don't forget, now the people of the Star Spirit Empire are immigrants, they are loyal to the country, there are no decades of stability, don't expect them to increase their loyalty to the country"
"Without a strong king, it is impossible to guarantee the independence of the Star Spirit Empire, and having two generations of strong kings will increase the population of the country by several generations"
"At that time, the Star Spirit Empire can truly become a country" Xu Ping'an said these words with a serious expression on his face.
"I don't understand what you're talking about, how do you say I did it," Gavin said, rubbing his brow.
Gavin dislikes the political intrigue and mutual calculation, because Gavin has seen too many dark things, and more than 95% of the people who do these dehumanizing things are politicians.
The two ended the conversation after a while, and Gavin turned off the computer, leaned back on the couch, and shook his head with a helpless expression on his face.
Time passed slowly, and Gavin accompanied Xu Wentao to Aidrius Island to return to the Star Spirit Empire by starship, Gavin was not convinced, and Xu Ping'an completely saw through Xu Wentao.
From now on, the Star Spirit Empire will have a lively look.
There is Xu Ping'an, the emperor, who is indulgent, and there are two princes fighting openly and secretly, which is absolutely lively.
Two months passed slowly, and on this day, the emperor issued an announcement that Xu Wentao would go to the wasteland five hundred kilometers west of Fanxing City.
The seventh city of the Star Spirit Empire, Qin City, will be built here.
Wang Changyou was appointed as the executive vice mayor of Qincheng.
Ordinary people can't see anything from this announcement, but in the eyes of the high-level leaders of the Star Spirit Empire, this appointment is not simple.
Wang Changyou was one of the three more loyal advisors around Xu Gan, seven of the top ten advisors around Xu Gan were executed, and Wang Changyou was one of the remaining three.
Now it has been dispatched to Xu Wentao's side, the executive deputy mayor has real power, and the appointment and dismissal can only be decided by Xu Ping'an, and now he is dispatched to Xu Wentao's side.
The meaning of this is worth savoring.
Zhang Jianbin also saw the notice at his residence, shook his head and smiled bitterly, Xu Ping'an is really ruthless, this is to make it clear that the two sons are fighting openly and secretly.
After this fight, the political skills of the two sons will definitely improve in a straight line, what will you do with us who are working, and will we be able to settle down in the future.
There are only three ways for all government personnel to go, the first is loyal to Xu Ping'an, the second is loyal to Xu Qian, and the third is loyal to Xu Wentao.
If you don't want to take sides, all three will hit you.
The fate of standing on the wrong team can be imagined, and it is impossible for Zhang Jianbin not to have a headache.
"God, why didn't you directly split the scourge of Xu Ping'an to five hundred years ago," Zhang Jianbin looked up at the starry sky and said directly.
Time slowly passed for a month, and a small gossip began to spread in the Star Spirit Empire, and Xu Ping'an was considering the matter of knighthood as a reward for the old man of the Apocalypse Group.
Some people are calm, some people are not calm, and many public servants start to discuss this matter after eating together.
Time passed slowly, and the people of the entire Star Spirit Empire were discussing this matter, and soon, this wind blew to the earth again, and the media on the earth began to report on this matter.
On this day, Xu Ping'an's personal social account was updated.
Fifteen chapters of photographs were published above.
Song Yunfan, Liu Mingtang, Cao Wujun, Coster, Del, Feng Qingping, Tang Jie, Sokeya, Fred, Huque, Wu Bokai, Wang Xiaojun, Denverson, Duan Zhirong, Easter.
Photos of the captains of fifteen starships, each of them in military uniform, holding a captain's scepter unique to the Star Spirit Empire.
Fourteen males and one female.
Under the photo, there is also a sentence [new] [Holding the Star Spirit Scepter, the starry sky of the universe is looking for the marquis!].
Xu Ping'an's batch of content is very informative, and it has caused a lot of repercussions among ordinary people, knighthood, this is a great honor, and people who want knighthoods seem to understand something.
The most direct reaction is that the number of people in the various schools of the Star Spirit Empire and the Star Air Force Academy of the Empire has increased.
Many young people began to fantasize that they would hold the scepter of the Star Spirit Empire, command the starship to go to the starry sky of the universe to expand their territory, and then accept the emperor's knighthood.
This is a conspiracy, a conspiracy to increase the people's recognition of the country, to give ordinary people a goal, and to guide these people to strive for the development of the country.
Obtain the approval of young people first, and as young people recognize the country, the ladder will be formed from generation to generation, and the country will become more and more stable.
Xu Ping'an said that after the establishment of ten cities, a congress will be established, and now the sixth and seventh cities have begun construction, and it is time to be knighted.
The more people who have titles in the country, the more people who support the state system 100 percent, will greatly consolidate the stability of the country.
The bigwigs of many countries on the earth have seen Xu Ping'an's plan, and many people are shaking their heads, Xu Ping'an is doing things one by one, waiting for the Star Spirit Empire to start establishing a parliament.
It will no longer be possible for the Diet to form a strong check on the imperial power, and the position of the royal family will become more consolidated and entrenched over time.
The topic of media guidance has been discussed unconsciously for half a month, and on this day, Xu Ping'an announced the rank, treatment, rights, and obligations of the knighthood.
Prince, Duke, Marquis, Earl, Viscount, Baron, Six Titles, Earl and below each rank is the third rank.
The lowest-tier baron enjoys an imperial allowance of 800 Star Coins every month until you die a natural death, and those who have the title can enjoy a tax deduction of 2% if they are engaged in business within the scope of the Star Spirit Empire.
Charity must be carried out once a year in the Empire, and the amount of charity must not be less than 1,000 Star Coins, which is the obligation of the knighthood.
Viscount, the monthly imperial allowance is 1,200 Star Coins, which is eligible for a tax deduction of 4%, and the number of charities per year is 2,000 Star Coins.
Earl, the allowance is 2,000 Stars, and the tax deduction is 6%, and the number of charities is three times a year, and the amount of charity is 3,000 Stars.
The Marquis, with a stipend of 3,500 Star Coins, enjoys a 10% tax deduction, and the number of charities per year is four times, and the amount of charity is 4,000 Star Coins.
Duke, the allowance is 5,000 star coins, enjoy 12% tax deduction, the number of charities is not limited, and the annual charity amount is 6,000 star coins.
Wang Jue, the allowance is 10,000 star coins, enjoy 15% tax deduction, the number of charities is not limited, and the annual charity amount is 20,000 star coins.
At the same time, Xu Ping'an announced an organization, the Ethics Committee, whose duty is to examine those who hold titles to see if they have fulfilled their obligations.
Those who hold the title must abide by social morality, and anyone who causes a scandal can be stripped of his title after the Ethics Committee reports it to the emperor.
Every two years, the Ethics Committee will nominate 500 people to the emperor for review, and those who pass the audit will be knighted, regardless of the industry.
In other words, as long as you have contributed to the Star Spirit Empire, then you can have a knighthood and be knighted once every two years.
Titles are not static, you can contribute to the Star Spirit Empire through your own efforts, and you can increase your title based on your merits.
Correspondingly, the succession of titles is decreasing, you have a duke, and when you die a natural death, your next generation will have the title of marquis, and in the next generation will become an earl.
Decreasing generations.
In the future, after the establishment of the National Assembly, 50 seats will be reserved for the National Assembly, and these 50 seats will be selected from among those who have knighthoods, and there is no need to be elected.
The list of knights is expected to be announced early next year, and a knighthood ceremony will be held in the second half of next year.
Xu Ping'an gave a clear date, which detonated the media in one fell swoop, and people didn't care much about this kind of news anymore, but now they are paying attention again.
Many media outlets said that if the knighted person can follow the rules of the Ethics Committee, in the future, the person with the title will definitely be a respectable existence.
The media of the Star Spirit Empire began various analyses, and this wind also spread to the earth across hundreds of millions of kilometers without exception, causing a lot of repercussions on the earth.
