Chapter 179, don't worry about imperial taxes at all
After this wave, Gu Hang directly spent all the gift points, leaving only 62 points.
But all the work has been arranged, and Gu Hang needs a while, patiently waiting for the time to blossom and bear fruit.
In the next two months, Gu Hang didn't make any big moves, but in the territory he controlled, the changes were still very big.
The first major event was that the war in the central provinces had finally almost completely subsided.
After completely annihilating the main force of the anti-Governor's Alliance, the Central Army led by Yan Fangxu swept through one million square kilometers of land in the entire Central Province in a little more than half a month, and two million people were completely brought under the rule of the Alliance.
The leaders of the so-called anti-Governor's Allied forces, the leaders of many large settlements, surrendered even if they did not commit war crimes, then let the government department led by Osena raise the whole idle position; A small number of them are indeed okay, then let's see how to continue to let them manage the settlements, transfer to bureaucrats, and retain them if they do a good job, and get out if they don't work.
But some hardliners, some who surrendered at the last minute, some of the chief evils who committed crimes, then there is nothing to say.
Lambert Hodgson, as the chief justice of the League, once again made a 'limelight', held a trial, and sentenced more than 300 people to death, and thousands of people to 3-10 years of hard labor.
Of course, now is not the time when Gu Hang has just taken down Fuxing City, there is no need to make the scene too bloody, so there is no scene of execution on the spot and in public, just pull it to the shooting range normally, and shoot it.
In this regard, Yan Fangxu still seemed a little regretful. He had intended to carry out a ceremony of triumph and sacrifice of prisoners to the governor, but this was rejected.
According to the Governor, these things are also worthy?
Yan Fangxu touched his nose and was a little embarrassed. However, after he then achieved at least a qualified record by virtue of this operation in command of the group army, he was promoted to the rank of brigadier general with this experience, which can be regarded as a consolation.
However, although Gu Hang seemed disdainful of those rebel leaders, in fact, the pacification of the central province was still of great significance:
The total population of the Union exceeded the five million mark. The most significant growth has come from the central province, the largest and most populous of the three provinces currently planned. Once this place is pacified, it means that two million people have joined the alliance.
The Union's population policy has been carried out consistently. Large-scale settlements with resources, industries and scale should be retained and developed; Others, abolished, merged into the population into Fuxing City and Weixing City, strengthen the population scale effect, to meet the manpower needs of the concentrated development of various industries.
The Weixingcheng Industrial Zone, which has received population growth, more fierce laying of various production lines, and better solution of resource problems, has further improved its industrial production efficiency.
The production of RN series trucks has increased to 1,000 units per month. The production of armored vehicles of the Edifier series also came to 90 units per month.
In the production of iron cattle trucks in these two months, the foreign trade part was discarded, and the rest was replenished to the army.
The 2nd Division, the 3rd Beast Slaughtering Brigade, which was reorganized from an independent regiment into a brigade, has completed a comprehensive motorized modification, and the 11th Division and the 12th Division, two new motorized infantry divisions built according to the specifications of the 2nd Division.
The full strength of the motorized infantry division is more than 9,000 people, and it can achieve a motorized march with all personnel, not only has 3,000 more troops than the garrison division, but also has stronger mobility, and the number of artillery is also larger, and the overall firepower is more than twice as strong.
These two troops were incorporated into the Central Group Army and were under the command of Yan Fangxu. At the same time, the 7th and 8th divisions broke away. They will then guard all parts of the central province and suppress the localities. The Central Army, which had newly acquired the 11th and 12th Divisions, marched south with the remaining 1st, 2nd, and 3rd divisions and brigades, advancing to the border between the Central Province and the Qinggu region.
The Qinggu region is the main direction of military operations of the alliance in the next stage.
And the newly formed troops are not only the 11th and 12th divisions. Subsequently, the 10th Special Operations Brigade, the 13th Mechanized Synthetic Brigade, and the 14th Motorized Infantry Division were also planned.
The 14th motorized infantry division is the same as the 2nd, 11th, and 12th divisions, needless to say; The 10th Special Operations Brigade is a special establishment, and Gu Hang plans to build an elite special operations detachment specializing in special operations, operations behind enemy lines, and decapitation operations with the elite soldiers of the dozen or so storm detachments that are still alive as the core. However, at present, there is only a shelf, and the training price of elite soldiers is still a bit expensive, but the equipment is not a big problem, and the LR5 series laser gun has given him the capital to form an elite special combat team.
In the future, in addition to the Immortal Bird Warband, Gu Hang will still need a sufficient number of elite troops to carry out some special tasks.
As for the 13th Mechanized Composite Brigade, the specifications are similar to those of the 1st Wind Extinguishing Brigade, but because there are no more tanks, all the tank companies in each combat composite battalion have been replaced with a mechanized infantry company.
But in general, except for the fact that the soldiers have less experience, the combat effectiveness will not be much different from that of the 1st Brigade.
These 13th and 14th divisional and brigade-level units actually have enough soldiers. At present, there are almost 30,000 recruits in the recruit training base outside Fuxing City. Just wait for all kinds of equipment to be in place, and then be organized into a new unit.
At present, the motorist is fine, and the equipment can be in place in a month; Compositors are not very good, it takes two months.
However, this is based on the current military production capacity. Subsequently, the production capacity will become more and more explosive. In fact, in the past two or three months, the output of the Edifier has increased from the original thirty or forty units to ninety units, which is almost three times.
And the explosion of production capacity, or the development of the entire territory, can also be seen intuitively from Gu Hang's current monthly gift point income.
At the beginning, the month after coming down from the starship, the gift point I got was 678; Last month, I already had 817 Gift Points; And the latest month's income points have come to 1022 points a month.
Among them, the largest increase came from Weixing City, followed by the increase of 2 million people after the central provinces were recovered. Although there are many people in the latter, in fact, the gift point has not risen so much, mainly because the productivity is too stretched.
The third increase came from Fuxing City, where the city's population has returned to the million mark.
As for the 300,000 people in the Tower Province and the 500,000 people in the North Central Province, the reward points provided are all small shrimp level numbers, mainly in these two places, although the number of people together is not small, but the productivity is too stretched, the living standard of the population is too stretched, and the food and clothing are not satisfied, almost all the staff are extremely poor, and people often starve to death, and it can hardly bring any positive benefits to the entire alliance, and even need the alliance to allocate materials to support them, ensure that they do not starve to death, and provide them with development funds.
In the short term, these places are largely negative assets for the Alliance, in addition to helping the soldiers and population. It takes a long time to invest in construction to get better.
In terms of bounty points, these places are also very low.
At present, Gu Hang is not particularly clear about the income calculation mechanism of fixed monthly gift points. Only four major factors can be roughly distinguished: the size of the population, the standard of living of the population, the gross productivity, and the contribution to the whole political system.
Moreover, the increase in the number of points of this gift is not linear. Otherwise, it is difficult to explain why when Gu Hang didn't even take Fuxing City before, he could have a monthly income of dozens of dollars by relying on the thousands of people in the governor's camp; However, now there are 500,000 people in the central and northern provinces, a population base of hundreds of times, and the income from gift points is about the same as the size of the camp at that time.
The increase in Gift Points may be a step-by-step, segmented increase? After the whole government reaches a certain size, and then it is improved, it has to be improved even more to get the same increase as in the past?
However, regardless of the specific algorithm, there is a reason that is fine. As long as Gu Hang strives to improve the number of people he actually controls, improve productivity, and improve people's living standards, then this number will definitely rise.
And Gu Hang got these two months of income, and the gift points that had been spent in his hands rose to a relatively considerable number again, coming to 1901.
Gift points can't lay eggs anyway, Gu Hang still uses them to smoke technology.
However, this time he didn't draw another thousand gears. High-level technology cannot be mass-produced, although the technology product itself is very powerful, but it will not help the entire alliance to increase production capacity.
In short, there are not so many gift points on hand, so it is better to take out some of them and draw 100 gears to see if you can make up a little basic technology and fill in the previous hole.
As a result, it really worked.
I hit a basic level first, and then the probability of 100 gear became 20% of the basic level, and the probability of falling by 30% dropped it, but the advanced level increased from 10% to 20%.
100 gears should only fall by 20% every time they win the lottery, but the probability of basic technology has fallen by 30% this time, and more of them have fallen to the advanced level?
I don't understand this mechanism anymore...... But that's certainly a good thing.
He drew two more shots, and it was all empty. After all, the overall winning rate is only 40%, and the Air Force is normal.
Then I won it once, and I was in the advanced class. The overall probability is 10% for the base level and 10% for the advanced level.
I pumped five more times, and I hit the advanced class. At this point, there are only 2.5% probabilities left.
Theoretically, 2,000 bounties can only be shipped, and the probability of basic and advanced levels is half each...... To this extent, from Gu Hang's point of view, it can basically be said that the prize pool of 100 technology cards has also been drained.
However, up to now, he has drawn a total of nine times, and he has won a total of two advanced and one basic level.
In terms of quantity, before the prize pool is drained, 100 gears are still more cost-effective than 1000 gears.
And these three technologies, the basic level is [Servo Skull], and the advanced level is [Alloy Ceramic Steel] and [Anti-Gravity Engine].
Seeing these three things, Gu Hang was very satisfied.
The front-loading technology of the Rapid-Attack Airship is all lit up.
Alloy ceramic steel is not much to say, Gu Hang is extremely satisfied with this technology. Like Alloy Steel, this is an advanced version of the advanced alloy.
With it, the blaster can be mass-produced; The reactor is ready for mass production; The outer armor of the rush airship, as well as some internal parts, are also sufficient......
In the future, a large number of medium and high-end industrial products need alloy ceramic steel, which is the foundation of the foundation.
The anti-gravity engine can be directly supplied to the Wind Falcon fast attack airship. Moreover, this advanced engine can also be applied to some more advanced equipment. This kind of engine is the basis for some super heavy equipment to move, even if it is some Titan, the main engine is not it, it also needs it in some position, reducing gravity.
Otherwise, a lot of equipment is heavy enough to weigh itself, and its own weight is not enough to be borne by some structures that are not strong enough.
In short, with these two things, the Wind Falcon Rapid Attack Boat will be able to pull out the production line and be able to mass produce it on its own.
Of course, there is also a servo skull. If there is no servo skull as a fire control system, it is not impossible to produce, it is nothing more than to let the co-pilot, or call the gunner, to carry out the naked eye aiming.
But obviously, that will make the combat effectiveness somewhat reduced.
And once you have a servo skull, it's like having a secondary computer.
As for what the hell is a servo skull...... This is actually a genetic technology that can make a human with an intact brain and an intact skull into a 'wet piece'. It's similar to being a servant, cutting out a part of the brain, erasing personality, active thinking, and just using it as a computer.
On many Mechanistic creations, you can see such a thing: a human skull, connected to some machines by a metal notochord, and sometimes the skull can move and float around on its own with the notochord......
To be honest, Gu Hang didn't quite understand why it was a basic technology. In his previous life, this proper black technology couldn't be more black.
However, this is really just a basic technology.
Like land resource exploration, servo skull technology is also blueprint, which includes the manufacturing process.
The finished black box can directly pull out a set of equipment required for a servo skull transformation studio.
It's a little easier than you think. One studio, one junior specialist, one in a day.
But Gu Hang noticed that this set of processes included a very important one: burning incense, praying, and a six-hour prayer of scriptures......
Gu Hang didn't understand at first, but soon understood.
It would be foolish to think of this universe as a materialistic universe. He's a psyker himself.
Obviously, this process can really create something like a servo skull, which is inseparable from supernatural powers.
In other words, almost all technologies have some supernatural elements in them, but they are more or less, obvious or hidden.
After figuring out this step, Gu Hang didn't bother anymore.
Just use it, no matter what the principle is.
Anyway, he couldn't figure it out himself.
However, for the fact that a complete human head is needed to make a servo skull, Gu Hang still can't accept it.
He's not the kind of guy who doesn't want to let perfect morality and ethics bind him - with the moral level of the Empire, taking a living artificial servo skull is really nothing.
But at least he won't just arrest people and do it.
In this regard, he still made relevant regulations: only death row prisoners and criminals who have been deprived of their human rights and do not even have an E9 level are allowed to be used as materials.
Only these guys, who no longer have human rights, can not be looked at as human beings and can ignore their wishes.
In addition, it is possible to sign donation documents with the public, soldiers, and during death, and when the body is donated after death, the brain will be preserved.
What is the cause of death such as a bullet in the head, brain cancer, etc., it must be impossible; If you have been dead for too long, you will definitely not be able to. However, some other body organ lesions lead to death, and the head is preserved by a special method within an hour after death, which can be performed with this set of surgeries and transformed into a servo skull.
To be more direct, doing it before you die has the highest success rate.
However, Gu Hang has not yet considered whether to open it. This can lead to ethical issues and even homicides, corruption.
Not for the time being, but if the situation changes in the future, the demand for servo skulls is particularly large, and it can't be satisfied by death row prisoners, maybe Gu Hanghui will really be forced to put it forward.
It's a pity that the prisoners who were arrested for the death penalty before they were shot before Gu Hang pulled out the skull, otherwise it would be a good source of raw materials.
In short, with this technology, the [Wind Falcon Attack Boat] can be fully put into production.
In the past two months, eight Wind Falcon have been pulled out of the finished black box. After the follow-up production, it is initially estimated that three aircraft can be produced per month, and four planes can be pulled out of the black box in a month, which is a total of 7 aircraft per month.
Of course, this production capacity will be increased in the future.
When it came time to pay the taxes a year and a half later, Gu Hang optimistically estimated that there would be no big problem with an air regiment and hundreds of wind falcons in his Astral Army.
And this air regiment is not a big problem with a tax dollar of 1 million.
In addition to the alloy ceramic steel, servo skull, anti-gravity engine, and wind falcon speed attack boat have been put into production, the deep veins of the waste cave mine have now completed the preliminary construction and put into production.
The 'Ruined Mine' and 'Storm Mine' in Gaota Province have also been put into production.
Especially in the storm mine, Wu Jiarong has concentrated on overcoming the original technology of collecting spiritual gas dug out of the ruins in the past month, coming up with a trial version, building a sturdy wind tower group, and connecting it to an energy compressor.
According to Wu Jiarong's estimates, in two months, it will be able to reach the expected monthly energy crystal income of 40,000 tax coins.
Of course, this is an average, it is an estimate, and the specific amount of energy can be mainly determined by the frequency of waste energy storms.
According to the latest statistics of the Ministry of Production of the Union Government, the annual output value of the whole Union can reach about 2 million tax coins in terms of tax currency.
This is the eighth month that Gu Hang has been on the surface.
Even if there is no such thing as forming an Astral Army to deduct taxes, after a year and four months, it will not be a problem to pay 2.5 million tax coins.
It is true that the output value of two million tax dollars a year must not be used to pay taxes, and people have to eat and drink. But who's to say productivity won't continue to rise?
To put it bluntly, the main production capacity of the alliance is still in the population of about 1.6 million in the twin cities. The vast majority of the remaining 3.3 million people live in extreme poverty, with very low productivity contributions. But since Gu Hang was able to build an industrial center like Weixing City in eight months, he certainly had the ability to create another one. The productivity of the more than 3 million people living in extreme poverty has tremendous potential for growth.
Give him a year, and he is absolutely confident that the current annual output value of two million will increase by more than 500%.
With a city, there is no problem in paying imperial taxes for a year.
Not to mention, he's still expanding.
Gu Hang didn't have to worry about the empire's taxes at all, he didn't have to worry about the first installment, and he didn't have to worry about the later ones. He already had too many ways to solve the tax problem, and the pressure of the empire's taxes would become lighter and lighter as it developed and expanded.
What's more, there is also a blackmail target.
In the sky, the Beautiful Maiden is doing business with Blackbird Heavy Industries.
As the governor of the planet, Gu Hang's request to approve the interstellar trade between Blackbird Heavy Industries and the Beautiful Girl is that they have to make up for the current tax period, as well as the tax arrears and dissatisfaction in the past two periods, with a total price of seven million tax coins.
This is a reasonable request for Blackbird Heavy Industries, which is entrenched in the western world of the Angry Owl, which directly or indirectly controls a population of more than 10 million. According to the tithe standard, there is really nothing wrong with taking out two million in the first phase of tax revenue. In addition to the previous debt, the seven million tax coins are even less.
A month ago, the envoy of Blackbird Heavy Industries had arrived in Fuxing City and met with Gu Hang.
The two sides have held several rounds of consultations on this matter.
In the end, Gu Hang still had no way to bite seven million and not let go.
Obviously, Blackbird Heavy Industries will definitely not be able to agree to the price of seven million.
First of all, they don't have that much money; Secondly, they will not give it, the value brought by this interstellar transaction is not necessarily worth so much, why should they give it so much to the governor?
Gu Hang didn't want to persecute too much.
He could have declared Blackbird Heavy Industries a traitor for not paying taxes, but now he has not been able to go thousands of miles away to quell the rebellion. He can also block the interstellar trade of Blackbird Heavy Industries, not only this time the business will not be successful, but he will not want to do legitimate interstellar business in the future.
But no one will benefit from really getting to that point.
Blackbird Heavy Industries can smuggle, although it has to face the threat of starships, but after all, starships are so big, and they also have to run in circles in the orbit of the planet, and people fly to the other side of the planet, use small spaceships, and fly low after entering the atmosphere to avoid detection...... Trouble is trouble, risk is risk, but not that it can't be done at all.
And Blackbird Heavy Industries has been hit, can Gu Hang have any benefits at the moment? Nothing.
It's better to talk about a reasonable price and put it in the bag for safety.
Seven million people don't agree, so let's talk about it, Gu Hang's bottom line is two million.
And in the end, the price they negotiated stopped at 3.5 million.
This amount of money alone is enough to pay taxes and be rich after four months in a year.
Sure enough, Gu Hang was not worried about the imperial tax, and he was completely confident.
It's just that some people are not very happy about the negotiation between Gu Hang and Blackbird Heavy Industries.
