It was not the military problems that plagued the lack of front, but the administration of the two city-republics of Moro and Eastern Samoa. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 In Wufeng's view, the two republics of Moro and Eastern Samoa are also the so-called open-boiled republics based on the prosperity of industry and commerce, which are similar to those city-to-commercial city-republics in the western continent, except that the landowners still occupy a large proportion of seats in the councils of the city-republics of Moro and Eastern Samoa, although they cannot influence the city-councils, but they should not be underestimated, because there is still a considerable area of territory outside the urban areas of the two city-republics that belongs to agricultural areas。

Due to the prosperity of industry and commerce, most of the councillors who control the power of the city council come from the industrial and commercial class, especially some large industrial and commercial families, who play a pivotal role in the council, they either send family members to serve as officials, or send interest spokesmen to run for council, or because the interests are combined to form groups to influence parliamentary policy, the power of the city republic is actually in the hands of a few large families who control the lifeblood of the city's economy.

In East Samoa, for example, the control of power in the city is basically three, almost controlled by three families and their allies, and if only two of the three families can reach an agreement, they can basically be passed by the parliament.

The Medici family, which controls about forty percent of the business of the city's shipping industry, not only has its own private wharf, has more than 80 large and small ships, and has a transportation network throughout the three continents, and has a strong economic foundation in the Tang River Empire。

Another alliance that can be compared to the Medici family alliance is the pearl diving, The Modai family, which is dominated by the fishing industry, controls half of the fishing industry in East Samoa, and the pearl industry is sixty percent, which can be described as a well-deserved Yuzhu family, and the various sea pearls produced not only have an important position in the eastern continent, but also exported to the central and western continents, the in-laws of the Modai family, the Cele family, control the largest shipyard among the three major shipyards in East Samoa, and also have a large number of forests and mountains in East Samoa, and are also large landowners and timber exporters in East Samoa。

The other family is the Gray family, which was originally a large plantation owner in East Samoa, and has a large number of coffee, Sugar cane plantations, but they have always been a politically disadvantaged group, for a long time can only sit in the city council, and later the Gray family took advantage of the tsunami damage of the East Samoa city republic salt industry and were on the verge of bankruptcy, spent money to buy a large number of salt farms, in one fell swoop became the salt giant of the East Samoa city republic, and also affected the entire salt industry and salt sales industry, so it rose in the city council and became the other pole of the triumvirate.

The three families and their alliances, as well as the forces attached to them, controlled more than seventy percent of the city's councils, while the remaining thirty percent were made up of small merchants, artisans, freelancers, townspeople, fishermen, and peasant representatives. According to the laws of the city, the body that directly exercises the executive power of the city republic is the ruling axe, which has seven officials, namely the chief consul, the assistant to the chief consul, the finance minister, the interior secretary, and the commerce minister.

General affairs are handled by the executive axe, while major affairs and the introduction and revision of laws and policies require the approval of the city council, and particularly important matters require the consent of more than two-thirds of the members of the city council to be passed, and the city council has a total of 100 members, which means that the consent of more than 67 members is required for the approval of particularly important matters.

The situation of Moro is similar to that of Eastern Samoa, except that Moro has always been the financial center of the eastern part of the Peninsula Alliance, where the financial aristocracy is more powerful, and they are more closely connected to the South Sea Alliance, and many of the merchant nobles of the South Sea Alliance countries and city-states are inextricably linked to the financial aristocracy of the Moro.

To be honest, Wu Feng still admires this political model of the two city-republics of Moro and Eastern Samoa, no matter how many shortcomings there are, but at least one thing is certain, this system is certainly quite advanced compared to the council that he gradually implemented in his territory, although this model is not very suitable for the interior of the empire due to regional differences, but Wu Feng believes that with the passage of time, this model will gradually show its advantages, and can more clearly and truly reflect the will of the people, and those who try to use the privileges of the government to seek the interests of everyoneThe various drawbacks that infringe on the interests of the public will also be subject to considerable constraints.

However, there are still many problems in this model, such as the uneven quality of the population due to the different economic levels of the people, which makes the election of legislators easy to be controlled by others, especially those who have economic strength can use various means to achieve their own goals. And this model is not very suitable in the current chaotic situation, the so-called open cooking system in this era is easy to delay major events due to low efficiency, so although Wu Feng himself has an appreciative attitude, he does not think that now is the time to implement this system, especially in the interior of the empire, which requires a gradual change in the people's thinking mode to gradually adapt and accept.

But now that it's in their own hands, where do these two cities go? This point of Wu Feng is quite a headache, it should be said that from the current point of view, the political operation mode of the two city republics of East Samoa and Moro is still quite smooth, although the actual power of the two major city republics is in the hands of a few families, but on the surface they have at least achieved their power control through a more covert way, and now their own ownership has completely overturned their inherent political model, and the balance of forces formed by all parties has been immediately broken, maybe they have never thought that the Tanghe people, who were thousands of miles apart, could suddenly come to the city, and suddenly become their own masters, they are probably at a loss at this time, I don't know what my future will look like, but they don't know that they are at a loss, thinking of this, Wu Feng himself can't help but smile slightly bitterly.

Their purpose is very simple, that is, to have a stable outlet to the sea in the Great South Sea, so that the goods of Western Xinjiang can have a convenient access to the sea, and also let their naval army grow up as quickly as possible, and this requires a stage suitable for their growth. At the same time, he must also have the ability to control the Southern Passage, with this ability, not only can he form a flanking situation from the land against those enemies (Macedhans) and potential enemies (Nanyang Alliance), but also can cut off their land transportation channels at any time, once his naval strength reaches the level of blockading the Great South Sea, then the entire Eastern Continent will become a chessboard that he can arrange at will.

At present, this strategic intention has been basically achieved, but Wu Feng does not want to base the realization of this strategic intention on the chaos and decline of the two urban republics of Eastern Samoa and Moro, he hopes to find a suitable balance, which requires his own innovation in the political model and the compromise of all forces.

Hearing a slight sound of footsteps behind him, Wu Feng knew that it was Su Qin who had arrived. Su Qin had just transferred from Situ Biao to Milan, and sailed directly from Milan to East Samoa, and when he was in Milan, the two cities of East Samoa and Moro had not yet fallen, and he did not learn the news through the local area until he arrived in the territory of the South Sea Alliance halfway, so he went straight to East Samoa by boat and landed.

"Su Qin is here?" Without looking back, Wu Feng's gaze still fell on the junction of the sea and the sky in the distance, where the light blue and gray gradually melted into one color, and the blowing sea breeze brought a faint smell of sea, which is only people who have lived in the depths of the continent for a long time will be so sensitive to this smell, and the people who have lived here for a long time have long lost their sense of smell to this faint smell, maybe they feel that this smell of the sea exists everywhere in this world.

"Yes, Your Highness. It wasn't the first time Su Qin had gone to sea by boat, but sailing thousands of miles like this still made him feel a little tired, and although he had rested for two days, the feeling of discomfort still hadn't disappeared. However, the complicated affairs in front of him left him no longer able to rest, and he had to shoulder the heavy responsibility of communicating and coordinating with the industrial and commercial forces in the cities of East Samoa and Moro, while Wang Yu took on the task of bargaining with the Nanyang Alliance.

"What's the matter, these guys are not easy to deal with, right?" Wu Feng still stared ahead, his hands were behind his back, the breeze was coming, and he raised his clothes, the sea breeze from the Great South Ocean was so warm and wet, it was already December, and the north was already cold and windy, but here, like a gentle and gentle lover's hands gently caressing your cheeks, warm, numb, this feeling was a hundred thoughts of Wu Feng, who had not tasted the breath of the ocean for many years.
