Tang Yan's face became more and more gloomy.

Zang Feng waved his hand diagonally opposite, signaling him to be calm.

The Governor didn't know if he was fearless or wanted to suppress Tang Yan's prestige, so he didn't speak for a long time------ after all, this was the Governor's Palace, and they had searched their bodies before entering the rostrum area to make sure that they didn't have weapons to enter the office.

No sane person would make trouble in such a situation, unless he was impatient.

It wasn't until the cigarette was halfway burned that he lit the ashes in the blue and white porcelain ashtray, and said slowly: "It's true that I am the governor of Gem City, but it doesn't mean that I can interfere with the operation of the entire system with absolute power, you should know that the position of the governor is not the emperor throne of the feudal dynasty, but the people who control the departments are indeed equivalent to the ancient princes and nobles." ”

"The release of the bounty task is under the management of the civil envoy, and that person has no close relationship with me......"

The governor's words made Tang Yan think a lot.

A hundred-person panda army can give birth to the three giants of Lei Laoer, Fierce Hands, and Tian Hu, who are fighting openly and secretly with each other and hostile to each other. Naturally, the Gem City, where 10,000 people lived, was plagued by economic and power disputes.

The power system of Gem City comes from the surviving military personnel of Kotoshima City in the old era, who come from different departments and have different names.

In the difficult time of starvation, we were able to unite and lead the survivors of the atomic bomb to settle down in the stadium. When the city absorbs more and more foreign population, the city becomes larger and larger, and the time is getting longer and longer, and the power class no longer worries about the needs of food, medicine, arms, transportation, entertainment, living environment, and so on, the contradictions and conflicts accumulated in the process of dividing the cake of interests will become clearer and clearer, and will become more and more inflated, and eventually become a bomb bursting.

There is no substantial power struggle or military confrontation in Gem City at the moment, all because of the efforts of the person in front of him.

One view shared by many Gem City residents is that if ------ man in front of him had not taken over the governorship in time and pushed a monetary policy against public opinion, the current power system in Gem City would most likely have collapsed four years ago.

Nearly 200 years after the outbreak of the nuclear war, and decades after the establishment of the Gem City, in order to plan the economic activities in the area, after the completion of the expansion of the city, the authorities issued a series of new regulations, the most important of which is to end the long-standing business model of barter, and the Governor's Office uses pre-war technology to prepare and sell a city currency called Gem Coins, and all services and goods in the bazaar must reflect their value in the form of Gem Coins.

After the initial period of chaos, the issuance of the Gem Coin laid a solid foundation for the Gem City to become the largest economic and trade center in the eastern part of the peninsula, allowing the city's industry and commerce to develop in a healthy and orderly manner for many years.

In recent years, in order to compete with the western Kite City for the support of some villages and towns in the region, it has chosen to send a large number of gem coins in the form of loans.

In the grand scheme of things, this is positive for the growth of Gem City, but for the inhabitants of Gem City, it is tantamount to open plunder.

The cliques that wield power in the city of Gem City have relied on loopholes in the policy to exploit and plunder the newly issued gem coins of Gem City by colluding with lenders to take possession of the newly issued gem coins for themselves.

Because the Governor's Office has a monopoly on power and resources, people dare not speak out.

In order to protect their property, the residents and merchants of Gem City have sold their gem coins in their hands and exchanged them for hard currency in the wasteland world, such as medicine, food, and munitions.

The prices of goods in the bazaars skyrocketed, and more and more shops returned to the original way of bartering.

Naturally, the power group in Gem City did not want to see this, and the initial solution was to severely punish the owners of shops who refused to accept gem coins and chose to barter for the crime of speculation.

Rather than solving the problem, this kind of killing and exacerbating the situation has terrified some of the city's merchants and citizens with savings.

Since there is no way to change the facts, you can only choose to vote with your feet.

So many people moved west with medicines, arms, food, and other supplies.

Transporting goods requires safe and fast transportation, bodyguards to clean up living corpses along the way, and to guard against raids by marauders. It was under these circumstances that the Black Hand Mercenary Group and the White Widow's convoy made great progress.

The phenomenon intensified, and the managers of Gem City were in a hurry, not expecting the situation to deteriorate rapidly and the economic system to collapse.

They can't block the city and keep the residents from leaving, so that the Gem City will really be finished.

What was once hailed as a far-sighted decision became the starting point for the decline of the Gem City.

In order to exonerate themselves and protect themselves, the people in front of the interest group put Luo Zuoming------ the current governor on the throne of the leader of Gem City.

Speaking of which, Luo Zuoming is also a capable person, in order to save the gem city, he gambled on his own head and tried his best to implement a new monetary policy against public opinion.

First of all, the demonetization decree was enacted, and the circulation of old gem coins was suspended and diamond coins were issued. Residents of Gem City can exchange their Gem Coins for Diamond Coins at a certain rate.

Secondly, the diamond coin is anchored to the fiat currency of the Western Union, and the Governor's Office has no power to issue currency privately.

With the cooperation of the Jewel City Guard, the new monetary policy began to take effect, the order of the bazaar tended to be stable, and the commercial activities in the city slowly returned to their original level.

To put it bluntly, Luo Zuoming's actions saved Gem City and protected the interests of the residents in the city.

However, his actions blocked the path of some members of the power group to grab wealth, and drew the resentment of many managers, but because of the widespread popular support, those people did not treat him badly, even if they were resentful.

As time passed, the crisis of the collapse of Gem City was gradually left behind, and Luo Zuoming's management of Gem City became more and more restrained.

After all, the weather in the city is always changing, but the people who hold the lifeblood of the city are still the same people.

Luo Zuoming is just a face-faced figure who has been pushed to the forefront.

"I think the Legion Commander may be able to understand the helplessness behind the word 'involuntarily'." The Governor looked at Zang Feng and sighed.

Tang Yan lowered his head and thought silently.

Wang Ming, who controls the tax, security and energy supply of Gem City.

Chai Xiaonong, who owns Xinghui Farm and Ranch.

Xia Qiming, who monopolizes the arms market and holds the dry shares of Pink Heaven.

Huang Lei, who is in charge of civil affairs and is also a seafood tycoon in Gem City.

He controls the drug market, has close contacts with slave traders, and is the back of the black mercenary group's financier.

The Governor, who can wield one-third of the Jewel City Guard.

Add to that oligarchs in the fields of urban construction, water pipes, science and technology, and transportation...... These interest groups, formed around the representative figures, form the management system of Gem City.

Tang Yan remembered a sentence------ "Although the sparrow is small, it has all five organs."

The scale of Gem City is small, but there are many struggles on all sides.

At this moment, Luo Zuoming suddenly looked at his face and said, "Although there is no way to help you directly, I can show you a clear way." ”
