Volume 1 Chapter 95 The Great Commander of the Frontier
January 11, 2506. Fourth Field, Heavy Karma, Beta-4 C27· F590, planetary code F590-E279.
After Moya left, Field also began to have a headache and asked Yao Tianhuo.
"Elder Yao, what do you think should be done with Moya?"
At this time, Yao Tianhuo calmed down, and he also made a difficult mistake in the face of Field's problems. There are rules for who to punish and how to punish the empire. Even if it is the emperor, he has to find a crime.
So how do you convict this ink cliff? According to the existing laws of the Empire, as a collective intervention in the Third Interstellar Civilization, the Ishtar Interstellar Convention can be convicted and sentenced through the Civilization Arbitration Court.
But after all, this Moya is only leading a caravan, and it has not instigated the entire civilization, so it obviously cannot be explained as a collective. In this way, Bright Sky Fire cannot sanction Moya in the name of the Civilized Arbitration Court.
Yaotianhuo was not the only one who made the difficulty, after Moya's problem was reported, the relevant departments were stupid. The Heavy Industry Army Garrison, the Star Law Division, and the Lianshang Division didn't know what to do with Moya.
Before, Field was puzzled. Leap Technology Group is crazy about squeezing employees, and for a company, this means that the boss has taken a lot of wealth. Namely, money.
But when the company expands to the level of civilization, it is in a closed space. The question arises – where the crops grown by farmers, the products produced by factories, and the resources collected by mining go.
Even the employees of the headquarters of Leap Technology work day and night. It's really not an exaggeration to say that there is no time to eat. There is no time to consume, there is no desire to consume, and even the only entertainment is covered by Tengyue Entertainment, a subsidiary of the group. According to the survey data, output and consumption do not match in this closed system.
There are a considerable number of products missing, it can't be burned, right? No matter how arrogant and lascivious the boss of the group is, it is impossible for him to consume the creation of the entire civilization.
The appearance of Moya made this doubt disappear. I should have thought that the answer to this is very simple - the closed system is exported to the outside world. And what he does is only trade with the E279 civilization, and does not participate in any behavior of the Leap Group.
In essence, Leap Technology Group carries out interstellar terrorist activities through the reign of terror, the exploitation of people, forced labor, and the conduct of interstellar terrorism. The Star Law Division asked if Mo Ya's behavior could be interpreted as a high-class crime and stolen goods.
The other bosses thought about it and thought about it, and felt that it was inappropriate—not only did Mo Ya not have the contact of criminal intentions, but he also did not realize that his actions were suspected of violating the law. A group of bigwigs generally think that this explanation is too far-fetched and is suspected of imposing a crime.
In the end, he could only be charged with one innocuous crime - disturbing public order, an administrative warning, a fine, and an order to rectify the trade association.
The charges were convicted and the sentence was given. Sentencing is a difficult matter again, because nothing like this has never happened before.
There is no other reason, the universe is too vast, and the planets are too small. Almost all of the merchants of interstellar trade follow established routes, jumping between known civilizations and making money by reversing goods. In order to save costs, the vast majority of merchant groups will use the Empire's hypothetical star rail network whenever possible.
In this way, the chances of the merchant group discovering civilization and generating contact are almost zero. It's like an otaku hiding at home every day, going back and forth between the kitchen and the bedroom. And then don't contact anyone, it's impossible to get a girlfriend.
The same is true for some other individuals or groups.
There are no cases, no laws, no judicial interpretations. was sentenced to a full offense, but the punishment must not be messed with. It is difficult to determine who will collect this fine, and how much it will be fined.
The bottom line is that the trial is risky, and they may be held accountable for it. And the department that collects the fine, the problem can be completely put on the line, such as abuse of power.
Besides, there is no shortage of money in any department, and most of them have their own independent finances. After thinking about it, this errand was still handed over to the army for specific implementation.
Field is also aware of the risks, and you are afraid of the wrong verdict, and you are not willing to let the Army carry it out. This is a blatant cheat!
However, a word from the other side gave Field back.
"Don't you always shout about poverty? Don't want the money sent to your door, and don't beg us for support in the future. ”
Grass! Count you ruthless!
Field's lungs exploded. The financial system of the empire was definitely an outlier, and each department had its own revenue in addition to the fixed budget allocated by the central government and the special budget. That is, to engage in a little side hustle.
For example, the Lin Group, which Fielder himself acquired by Antigia, was used to run the Army's Star Port. Another example is the fishery company invested and built by Lianshang Division Zaantiga. Ports and shipyards invested by the Ministry of Industry. The Ministry of Rites, together with the Provincial Knight Department, and the state-owned enterprise Heavy Industry Empire General Machinery Group, invested in the construction of the school.
Except for some special provisions, the income is basically set aside by the departments for their own use.
This is a system that no country dares to think of, and it almost means corruption when it comes to it. And this kind of system can only be played by the Empire, and only the Empire dares to play. The empire even dares to connive at bribery, is it afraid of breeding corruption? Similar to the ghost thinking of "as long as I collect money and don't do things, it is not considered a bribe", and there is also "As long as things are done well, shouldn't I give a little more money?" ”。
This is similar to the share incentives given to executives in a company.
Magical things can only be seen in empires. As we all know, there are many things to do in each province of the empire, and the money given by the central government is very limited. Therefore, the army in each province basically has to find its own way to get funds.
Buying a second-hand ship of the Navy at a low price and selling it to an interstellar society third-hand ship at a high price are basic operations. Similar to Antija, the construction of interstellar ports to control interstellar import and export trade customs has long been promoted as a successful experience.
Even so, budget gaps are still frequent from time to time. That's why there is the most magical scene that only the Holy Empire has, asking for money from a wealthy department. Right! It's just reaching out and asking for money. It's not borrowing, it's not budgeting, it's really like asking for private money.
The ministries of industry and household affairs in the provinces are all big rich people, and even after deducting the taxes that should be paid to the central government, they can still have a large amount of money left. Even in each province, the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household have made it a tradition to support the army of the province.
This is really a system that the people of the empire dare to play, and the empire can play. In any country, corruption can kill you. The empire is the result of the spirit that has been accumulated and formed over many generations, and it is not known how long it has been the result of the evolutionary choice of civilization.
Now, they used this to crush Field, who could only grit his teeth and swallow in his stomach. As for the risk of liability, to be honest, it is all due to the overly rigorous style of the Imperials.
In this circle, almost all the relevant departments of heavy industry came. The results of the discussion at the meeting were in accordance with the law. This is a flexible within the permitted duties, so you can't just report it if you don't want to report it. If all the officials of the empire were like this, there would be no emperor in the empire. One died of exhaustion, and finally died.
Thinking of the Emperor, Field couldn't help but feel irritated.
When the other seniors saw Field, their original smiles suddenly disappeared. I thought I had made a joke. The senior member of the Star Law Division said: "Xiaofei, uncle is joking with you. The army doesn't want to take on this errand, so leave it to the Star Law Division. Uncle came to issue this ticket. ”
Field shook his head and said, "No, I just thought of something else. Leave Moya to the Army. It's okay. ”
Saying that, Field smiled, and several bigwigs were relieved to see that there was really no problem. Although Grandpa Field has been retired for many years, it is not good for a group of elders to bully the younger generation.
It stands to reason that their department is basically not short of money, and if they come to issue fines, it will not affect justice because of lack of money. The army has been running out of money all year round, and judging from this point alone, the army may open its mouth. Then it would be inappropriate to leave this matter to the army to decide.
However, firstly, interstellar security is the responsibility of the army garrison, and secondly, they all believe in the behavior of several bigwigs of the heavy industry.
