Although it is similar to say that, after joining the alliance, Red Arrow Star can still be the master of his own agricultural group and farm, and he can also let anyone inherit the property according to his own wishes.

But in fact, the price paid by the rich people on the Red Arrow Star is still very large.

Nominally, their performance, their respective companies, are all subject to the supervision of the Alliance. Even, the government that they had formed on their own, which was loose and did not look good, and at most played a little auxiliary role, would be replaced by a coalition government after it was dissolved. Gone are the days of planetary management, which relied heavily on farmer autonomy. The farm militia regiments, which had little construction level in the past, will also be disbanded and replaced by direct garrisons of the Union Army.

They put a rope around their necks and sent the other end to the Alliance. In the future, the alliance can strangle any farmer or agricultural group at any time if they want.

They won't have any ability to resist.

Of course, they expected this situation. After all, this time the conditions were originally proposed by them to the alliance.

Within Red Arrows, it is not without opposition.

However, these objections have been addressed internally in the first place.

The way they make this choice is actually very smooth.

First of all, it is very simple for the Alliance to kill the Red Arrow Star. Powerful military power, coupled with the legitimacy of the head of the star sector, coupled with the influence of the Gu family's status as the head of the family on interstellar trade...... The methods of rectification are all varied, from force to peace, from civilization to barbarism.

Anyway, when the time comes, you still have to kneel down to try to save your life, it is better to have not started in the alliance yet, everything on the Red Arrow Star is still valuable, or a valuable bargaining chip, first negotiate a good condition.

This is the condition that can be negotiated under the trade-off.

Did they have to be at ease in the past? Not really.

The situation on Red Arrow has been largely stable for many years, but there have been occasional bankruptcies of farmers and downsizing of agricultural groups. Under the market competition, they also have a set of clearing mechanisms to let those who are not doing well leave the positions they should not be.

Now, it is just turning the invisible hand of market competition into the visible hand of the alliance government.

They pay the price, but they also get the rewards.

The Coalition made a promise to take over the power of Red Arrows, but they did not have much will to make significant changes to the situation on Red Arrows. It's no problem that it's an agricultural planet.

The alliance also does not plan to invest heavily in the Red Arrow Star, but it is only to increase the export trade of agricultural machinery, agricultural technology reform, and expand and optimize the Star Port of the Red Arrow Star...... These measures are enough to bring enough benefits to these rich people on the Red Arrow Star.

They come with frustration and come home with worry, but in the years that follow, they will feel the warmth of the alliance and be glad that they made the right decision.

Gu Hang also gave instructions that the alliance should give preferential treatment to this kind of planet that takes the initiative to take refuge and fully accepts the transformation of the alliance.

It's not about being financially supportive – of course, it's necessary to exchange progress. More importantly, it is necessary to support them politically, and for these intelligent farmers, the alliance will try to ensure that their status, status, and wealth will not decline.

We have to create a vivid benchmark, if in the future, when there is such a planet that wants to take the initiative to join the alliance, there is such a good precedent, which can dispel the doubts in the hearts of many people and make the future of the alliance much easier.

……

Compared with the preferential treatment of the Red Arrow Star, Gu Hang was not so gentle with the Flying Wing Star.

Gu Hang was the Red Arrow Star 'Governor' he met with at the Flying Wing Star Pegasus Palace and accepted their joining.

And the reason why it's here, of course, is because this is where the head of Pegasus is located.

Winging Star has a population of 8 billion, a development level 5, and an annual imperial tax of 4 billion, what do you rely on to pay?

Most of them rely on the shipbuilding industry, and a considerable part of the remaining part is exempted or paid in other forms by various tax reduction and exemption policies.

There are many ways to do this 'other forms of payment'.

There are several major items in it, such as paying for the office staff and office resources of the star district government.

Of course, the personnel of the star government have to pay salaries, and these people have to eat the imperial treasury; They also need to have an office location, and the star government needs to be equipped with a car, a spacecraft that can perform interstellar jumps, and a servo skull to assist in processing data for the office......

That's a lot of money.

Even the entire Tianma Palace was built for the government of the Star District, and it took more than ten years to build a garden-style palace, which was used as the office land of the government of the Star District, and cost a total of more than one billion tax coins, which was the cost of the empire;

Although there are not many office staff in the star district government, the annual salary of a senior clerk is tens or even hundreds of tax coins, far exceeding the income level of ordinary people.

In addition, there are also such as the Pegasus Naval Academy, which also eats the Empire's finances, cultivates naval talents for the Empire, and transports them to the Pegasus fleet.

These costs are paid by Wingstar, and then get the certificate of the star government, as well as the certificate of the Ministry of Military Affairs and the Navy, and ask the empire for tax deductions.

In the past ten years, the annual amount paid by the Flying Wing Star Government and the Naval Academy has ranged from 500 million to 600 million at least and 1 billion at most.

This huge tax deduction, combined with the shipyard's payment of ships, forms the structure of Wingstar's payment of imperial taxes. Sometimes, when the Winging Star Shipyard happens to be in the cycle of big ships, the ship price is added to the tax, and the empire not only can't charge an extra dime from the Wingstar, but also has to put a lot of money into it.

However, how can there be no hands and feet in these things?

In the past, the leader of the star district government was Peters; Although the governor of Flying Wing Star is said to be Little Pei Desi, but little Peders is like that, can he lead Flying Wing Star well?

I don't have that ability to know.

At that time, he was only helping his brother, leading the governorship, and living happily every day, and the important work on the planet was actually handled by Peders himself.

When Pei Desi was managing the Planet and Star District governments, he actually used a group of people as two sets of teams. These people are doing the work of the planetary government and the star district government.

Isn't this just letting the same group of people, with the financial supplies of the Empire, be the team of the planetary government? This saves the planetary government a considerable amount of administrative costs.

There are a lot of personnel expenses and the cost of purchasing materials, and no one will check them in the past when Pedes is there and Martinelli is there.

But does it really stand up to scrutiny?

Can withstand a few hasty investigations, can withstand Gu Hang, the successor, do you really want to investigate?

Even, not only the expenses of these star district governments and naval colleges, even if it is the production of shipyards, is it really so fair and abides by the regulations of the empire?

That's just as uncertain.

Starships are not the same as other standardized war equipment, tanks, and the like. Starship from the hull design, power design, protection design, and the specifications of weapons and equipment on it...... All can be configured in different ways.

Of course, the word 'design' is a nice word. In fact, to put it mildly, it is the construction level of various shipyards.

The level of each shipyard is different, and the ships that can be built are not the same, and they can only be roughly regarded as XX-class specifications.

In this regard, people from the Imperial Navy and the Imperial Military Affairs Department will come over to evaluate the design of the ship and determine what the specific price of the ship manufactured by the shipyard should be.

But this kind of pricing, there will be a once. Subsequently, when the imperial tax collector came, it was enough to inspect the ship.

The two links of design and acceptance are not to be done, and the size of Pei Desi has not yet reached the point where his hands and eyes are open. Those who have this ability can't look down on this thing.

However, there are countless steps between design and acceptance. It's not easy to cut corners in the construction process, but let's just say the most normal - what about the money saved after the workers are skilled and the process is mature?

Not to mention that there are some abnormalities, such as the margin that was deliberately left at the time of design, which can be saved now.

From the administration of one team and two brands, to the cadets who ate the financial training of the navy, and then to the selection of qualified sailors as taxes;

From the construction of the ship, to the process change, to the acceptance of the ship;

When the level of integration between the star government and the planetary government reaches this level, there are too many links that can be operated in the middle.

After Gu Hang was officially appointed by the head of the star district, he ran to the Flying Wing Star Pegasus Palace as soon as possible.

He brought his own guards, and after landing, he also deployed the personnel of the Psionic Cultivator's Order, and came directly to the Tianma Palace.

The first person he met was the head of the guard team of the Tianma Palace. This group of elite warriors who are all equipped with feedback power armor are personal guards who eat the empire's finances and obey the command of the head of the star sector, and they belong to the benefits or rights that the empire gives to the head of the star sector.

The equipment was bought, and the personnel were specially drawn from the elite of the Astral Army. This is certainly a pretty good place for the warriors of the Astral Army. Can you stay away from the war, have higher allowances and benefits, or on a garden planet like Flying Wing, isn't it the best place for soldiers who have survived a hundred battles?

It's just that for the empire, it's not very clear whether it's a good thing that such an elite thousand-man team is placed here to be pampered.

In the past, the Pegasus Palace Guards were under the orders of both the Star District Government and the Planetary Government, which was not a matter of choice for them, as it was the same thing before. Even after Martinelli came, they were on the same camp, and the distinction was not so clear.

But now, this question is suddenly and firmly placed in front of them.

And they don't have to think too much about it to know what the right choice is.

In terms of interests, with the obvious sinking of the ship, the little Pedes has a serious brain disease; In terms of duties, they are the direct guards of the head of the star sector, and as for who the head of the star sector is, they don't pay attention to it, and they shouldn't pay attention to it. Whoever is in that position will listen to whoever is done.

Immediately afterward, they received the first order from the new leader: from the Tianma Palace, the office of the star district government, all unrelated people who are not the star government government are cleared.

In fact, there won't be too many people, although the Tianma Palace essentially serves as the headquarters of the planetary government, but the planetary government officials usually have a layer of the skin of the government clerk of the planetary government.

But little Pedes doesn't have this skin.

was in the Tianma Palace, waiting to greet Gu Hang, he didn't know how many grievances he had hidden, and he was still thinking about whether it would be better to recognize the reality and grovel after a while, or to be tough and would rather die than give in. As a result, he didn't even see Gu Hang's face, and he was driven out by the guards of the Tianma Palace who had guarded him.

Then, little Peders found that he, the governor of the planet, could not interfere in the affairs of the planet.

The people who should obey his orders are extremely rare, and most of the important positions and senior staff are the star government personnel who receive the empire's finances.

In the past, the head of the star sector nodded and asked them to do the work of the planetary government, of course they did it, but now, if they are not allowed to do it, what should they do?

Then you can only do it honestly.

Most of them are also reluctant to leave their posts in the star district government. Not to mention the amount of money in the post, they know better than anyone that the planetary government doesn't have a personnel budget at all - it was not necessary before, now?

Now no one is doing this budget.

Of course, without management, the planet will be chaotic. Gu Hang didn't want to make chaos in the rich place of Flying Wings, he already regarded this place as his property.

He will still let the officials of the star district government continue to work, but he can't do it directly.

As the head of the star district, he issued the first decree: reprimanding the Flying Wing Star Governor Peides Jr.'s chaotic governance, the planetary government is in vain, and the star district government temporarily replaces the management, and ordered Peides Jr. to reorganize the planetary government within a month and complete the management work, otherwise Gu Hang, as the head of the star district, will officially launch the impeachment of Pedes Jr. to the higher government.

Little Pedders was dumbfounded.

Where am I going to spend a month forming a planetary government?

The people in the star district government don't use it?

Isn't this going for my life?

But it was obvious that Gu Hang was not asking for his life.

If it were fatal, there wouldn't be this month.

For Peters Jr., it was a whole month of reflection time for him to make the right choice.

And little Peides found that there were not many options for him.
