Chapter 560 God Loves the World
“I remember that my job was just to stand there, reassure the people, and provide strength to the [priests] under me.”
Mo Cheng leaned back on the sofa, looking at the information Lu Fanghua handed over and tapping the handle of the chair with his fingers, "These should be your job."
Taxation in all walks of life in Hanchuan City, foreign business cooperation, tariffs, and even changes to school textbooks...
These are tasks that look troublesome and Mo Cheng is absolutely unwilling to deal with them.
The girl shrugged and continued to place more documents on the table in front of Mo Cheng. "Although I am happy to serve you, these matters are necessary to demonstrate your power and must be reviewed by you."
Looking at the documents in front of him, which were more complicated than the textbooks and reference books he had used when preparing for the exams in his senior year of high school, as well as various test papers combined, Mo Cheng rolled his eyes and wanted to cast a [Judgment] to put an end to the matter once and for all.
“So all taxes will be raised to 90 percent?”
Lu Fanghua paused for a moment before speaking, "Although this city is your private property and I shouldn't say anything, I have to remind you that doing so will cause your people to rebel."
"I have raised the tax rate to 90 percent. How can they still have the funds to rebel? It seems that I am not collecting enough."
Mo Cheng is not good at government affairs and governance. It can even be said that his personality simply hates such troublesome things.
"Okay, no more jokes. Do you have any reference answers? There are so many senior executives of business groups in this city, and guys who stay here to become [speculators]. Is there no one who can give useful suggestions?"
After Mo Cheng's speech, some people left Hanchuan City overnight, but at the same time, some people entered Hanchuan City. Some people who had nothing tried to take a chance in this place and get some capital that could completely turn their lives around.
Mo Cheng's attitude towards this is to let it go. For him, now that he has taken the first step, the next things will not stop.
Those who leave overnight will eventually have to face the Second War.
"Yes." Lu Fanghua nodded and took out a lot of documents and placed them in front of him. "But I don't recommend listening to their opinions. These people's suggestions have left a lot of loopholes for themselves to exploit."
Domestic affairs must satisfy the needs of all parties and achieve a certain relative balance. Because this thing itself is just that, a seesaw formed by multiple levers, try to keep each one balanced as much as possible.
But now Mo Cheng has a new idea, to satisfy all parties and maintain a balance? That is not what he needs to do.
A ray of holy light evaporated all the documents related to this part, and Mo Cheng raised his feet and placed them on the table, as if he was stepping on everything in this city.
"Then, we will implement a rationing system so that everyone can get enough materials for the minimum survival. We will enable the use of [credit points] currency, which is linked to physical currency. At the same time, we will divide all professions and provide corresponding material supplies , only for professions, not individuals."
"If they need an explanation, tell them that the Earth has very little material and that it will be consumed sooner or later, so we must discard everything that is unnecessary and rush out of the Earth and into space. By the way, in addition to scientific research and heavy industry, tell them that if they join the military, the material supplies will be 20% more than other professions."
“Becoming a [priest] gives you so much more.”
The next few sentences are Mo Cheng's main purpose. He needs people to join the army as soon as possible. Perhaps he cannot count on these people's combat effectiveness, but Mo Cheng needs them as a controlling force to take over the captured cities.
Of course, there is another more important point: it is difficult to keep a multi-lever seesaw balanced. But breaking the board and letting everyone sit on the ground is definitely a simple matter.
As long as you have the power to suppress everything, as long as you don't satisfy everyone's demands, then you have no demands.
Taxes, economy?
When it comes to the two great goals of ruling the world and breaking out of the earth, everything has to give way.
"That's it for this question. This is the most appropriate way. Otherwise it would be too much." Mo Cheng tilted his head and looked down at the earth, with a malicious arc at the corner of his mouth. "Even though I have the strength to surpass humans, I still love humans."
There was no fluctuation on Lu Fanghua's face. She knew very well that when Mo Cheng said "love for humanity", he was not referring to a specific person. He might really love humanity, but this love might be for "humanity" as a whole.
A race of over twelve billion individuals.
In his eyes, individual people are nothing more than cells.
As Mo Cheng's deputy, Lu Fanghua should have refuted or even stopped such behavior.
But she just said, "If you do that, a lot of people will criticize you."
"It doesn't matter. Investigate the IP addresses and release them one city at a time."
Mo Cheng's mentality at this time is absolutely consistent with the one in the Bible. "They can attack a strong man like me who loves humanity, and they are against the great cause of human unification and marching towards the stars and the sea. They are no longer ordinary sinners. They have been possessed by demons and need to be purified."
The girl had no more questions and bowed slightly, saying, "Your wish."
For Lu Fanghua, when her family died at the hands of the Wolves, she no longer had any kindness towards this world.
There is goodwill, but it is limited to helping the human race survive. However, Mo Cheng has already given humans a way to survive, and she doesn't need to interfere with the decision that has already been made.
At this time, the clock in the room quietly pointed to three o'clock in the afternoon.
"Okay, it's three o'clock, time for afternoon tea."
Mo Cheng simply pushed the documents on the table. If no one else came to help with the troublesome matter, the best thing to do was to put it aside and wait for others to do it.
Of course, this situation specifically applies when the entire city belongs to him and no one can resist him.
"One more thing." Before Mo Cheng left, Lu Fanghua 's voice sounded first, "The hot spring bath that suits your status has been built, and the accompanying personnel have been gathered. Do you want to have afternoon tea there?"
"An escort? What is that?"
Mo Cheng ignored the fact that Lu Fanghua didn't use honorifics when speaking to him. He knew that the other party probably didn't have much genuine respect for him. Considering those [priests] who became fanatical after accepting his power, Mo Cheng suspected that the reason Lu Fanghua was so normal now might be that more than 80% of the hatred in his heart was resisting the [influence] of the Holy Light.
Hatred towards the [wolf pack] and this world.
Holy light has some kind of subtle power.
This was not Mo Cheng's instruction, but to gain power far beyond one's own, one must pay a corresponding price.
Even if Mo Cheng gave permission to use it, there was always the possibility that children would hurt themselves when playing with swords.
Lu Fanghua, who is able to resist the subtle influence of the holy light, is worthy of Mo Cheng's attention.
