Chapter 553 Gaming License
The United States here is a little different from John's previous world, officials are career civil servants, there are no truck drivers and celebrities, and they can become governors and presidents by putting on a show, and they are all running step by step from district mayor to mayor to governor.
Moreover, there is a clear distinction between the North and the South, the Republicans are unlikely to serve in the Confederate States, and the Democrats will not serve in the United States of the North, and the only hodgepodge between the two parties is in the federal government.
Moreover, the party is very strict here, party members do not jump between the two parties, and all middle and senior civil servants of the state must be party members.
And most of the party members also have an identity, Freemasonry, the United States is the Freemasonry who led the people to overthrow British independence, so the Freemasons are in charge of the United States, but the Freemasonry leadership is divided into two factions because of different governing ideas, so the United States is divided into two, with the Democratic Party and the Republican Party, and the Union State and the United States. But this separation is only a separation within Freemasonry itself, and externally a state.
Just like two brothers, at home they are each other, but outside they are one family.
The officials were even more sad when they heard John's words, they were the worst to be errands under the hands of the strongman, but there was no way, John was the boss, they couldn't raise the flag to rebel, throughout history, the strongman was in power, and the rebel would end up very miserable!
And they are already very lucky, the Ministry of National Defense, and the troops, the people who carry stars, flowers, bars, and strips on their shoulders, have been killed more than 20,000 people in the past two years. Terror, since the founding of the United States, this is the largest anti-corruption and severe punishment of disciplinary violations, shocking the world. It wasn't until last month that the Pentagon reopened its doors.
The biggest corrupt institution in the United States is the Department of Defense, every year like a gold-swallowing monster, not only corruption, in order to increase the military budget to do everything, the United Arms Company falsely reported prices, spread the threat theory, it is simply the hardest hit area, for such a disaster area, John naturally made a heavy hand, the entire Department of Defense almost replaced, the arms companies involved in the case were all banned, the people involved in the case and the military corruption were all sent to Alaska, corruption has no death penalty, otherwise John has the heart to kill them, but John has already said hello, these people are all sent to the polar places of Alaska to serve their sentences, it is very difficult to come out alive, even if they are lucky not to die, they are basically scrapped。
John's goal is very clear: to pull out the moths, strengthen ideological education, build a disciplined army, firmly grasp the military power in his hands, and then eliminate the corruption and discipline construction of the police department, the FBI and other law enforcement departments, and after grasping these violent organs, he will begin to rectify party affairs and the rule of officials, and whoever dares to rebel with military power in his hands will be killed.
If the southern government wants to develop, it must have a set of efficient administrative teams, and the management of the United States has been too loose for more than 100 years, and with the development of the economy, corruption has become more and more serious, just like a seriously ill patient, and the management ability of such an administrative team is low, so the public order is getting worse and worse, the economic development is getting slower and slower, and the industry is becoming more and more backward, and a mountain fire cannot be saved.
John saw that these officials wanted to kill their father and mother one by one, and he didn't want to encourage them.
"I want you to go back and seriously investigate your own jurisdiction, make an economic plan for one or two years, don't sit in your office all day and think about votes, go out and see what your jurisdiction can develop, what is suitable for development, for example, Hawaii has fertile land, it is very suitable for growing coffee, why not join forces to make Hawaii an American coffee planting base? And tourism, why not increase the scale of publicity, why not strengthen the tourism facilities? Since tourists can create a two-dollar economy by spending one dollar in Hawaii, why don't they rack their brains and clean their pockets? I'm giving you a policy, if you can't develop it, you can choose two ways, either go to the desert to plant trees, or go to Alaska to mine. ”
"What policy, boss?" Ricky Campbell hurriedly asked, he didn't want to choose either of the two choices John gave, there was no good place, either he died of heat or cold, both of which were uncomfortable.
"I'm going to issue a gaming license to Honolulu, Hawaii, so I hope you'll take this opportunity to make Hawaii a tourist, shopping, vacation, and gaming capital. ”
John didn't do it before, because he was afraid of affecting Las Vegas, but Charles was too inch-free, and West Virginia, as a military base of the federal government, let West Virginia grow marijuana, which was compensation for West Virginia.
But Charles said that it was an honor for West Virginia to be a military base for the government, and there was no need to compensate at all, in fact, he also wanted to take a state to grow marijuana, otherwise he felt that he would suffer a loss, and he didn't think that West Virginia was small in size and had many forests, and if he took out a state to plant, it would affect West Virginia, and he only considered his own interests, forgetting that he would come to West Virginia for refuge when the war started.
So for Charles's inch, John is not ready to stay, the tourist city of Hawaii is very suitable for the development of the gaming industry, but for fear of impacting the gaming industry in Las Vegas, for the sake of the overall situation, John has never thought about it, now there is no need to keep his hands, since Charles wants to play marijuana and does not care about West Virginia, then he can't manage Las Vegas.
And John decided to build the most luxurious casino in the United States in Honolulu at that time, and build a shopping street, and build a Disneyland on top of it.
Ricky Campbell heard John issue a gaming license to Honolulu, a pair of eyes lit up, with a gaming license, many local tyrants will come to Honolulu to open hotels and open casinos, these investments can drive economic growth, and with more and more of these tourist facilities, attract more and more tourists, are you afraid that the economy will not rise at that time?
But Nolulu can't go up, as John said, in order to achieve significant economic growth, diversification is needed, and a single economic structure is not conducive to urban development.
After the meeting, Ricky Campbell left Morgan Estate with the officials, but they did not leave New York, but stayed at the Hilton Hotel to discuss the development plan, and after discussion, several people decided to vigorously develop tourism at the same time, the development of coffee planting, Hawaii is very suitable for growing coffee, and the quality is very good, among which Kona coffee is in short supply.
After plotting out where to grow coffee, Ricky Campbell and several mayors approached Starbucks, now the largest coffee company in the United States, and they wanted Starbucks to invest in growing coffee in Hawaii.
But before they could find Starbucks, General Mills approached them and decided to build a factory in Hawaii to grow coffee aggressively.
Hawaii is suitable for growing coffee, but not every island can grow high-quality coffee, so John asked General Mills to invest in some instant coffee business, just like Nescafe, instant coffee does not have high requirements for the quality of coffee, it doesn't matter if it is worse, people with high quality requirements will not buy instant coffee like Nestle, so let General Mills plant vigorously, it doesn't matter if the quality is poor, anyway, as long as it is cheap.
And there is a lot of sugar in Hawaii, so you can also make some coffee candy, coffee companion or something.
