Chapter 30, Pressure
Denison Henry came to meet the Governor this time, and he was very, very surprised by the initial communication.
He got what he wanted for almost nothing.
Of course, it doesn’t mean that you really don’t have to pay.
After taking the goods, he had to pay for them with alliance coins; the governor provided a series of lists, asking him to buy this and that. He looked at them and found that there were some difficult things in them. For example, the governor wanted the best for Fuxing City.
Textile machines and sewing machines, I want to import textile raw materials, I want hot limestone generator sets, I want the hot limestone itself, I want to build cement factories, brick factories...
Moreover, the Governor seems to know the market very well. The list and approval he was given allowed him to take away goods this time, which are of similar value. According to his own estimation, the profits here are severely compressed. He wants to make a profit
For more money, I'm afraid I have to try my best to sell the alloy plastic steel and armor vests at a higher price. I also have to try my best to find cheap and useful sources for the things I buy for the governor.
Although it was difficult to handle, Henry was still full of motivation.
Isn't this the time to show off your abilities?
If everything is easy to handle, then the Governor can just find someone to do the job, what does he have to do with himself?
However, when the topic fell to the second half, he gradually became less happy.
Mainly mentioned a very crucial point.
Denison Henry wants exclusive sales rights to the alloy plastic steel industry.
This is a guarantee for his own interests. He needs this thing to ensure that the market path he has taken will not be picked by latecomers.
Eliminating competitors and doing monopoly business is of course more profitable.
But Gu Hang didn’t allow it.
He argued hard, saying things like, 'This will allow me to better serve the Governor', 'This will help me expand my influence in Junk Town, and I will help the Governor do more things in the future'.
Already.
However, none of his words could move Gu Hang.
Gu Hang blocked him back with just two words:
"I can give you the rights you want, but I won't give them to you for free. Why do you want so much from me when you haven't done anything yet?"
"Use your actions to prove your loyalty."
Having said this, what else does Henry have to say?
He nodded heavily: "I will prove it to you, Mr. Governor."
"Besides, do something extra for me."
"As you command."
"I still need more manpower in my camp. There are so many refugees in Fuxing City who rely on urban life. Bring them here."
"No problem, I will definitely bring you healthy and reliable refugees, and the price will be absolutely cheap."
Gu Hang shook his head and looked very dissatisfied: "What money are we talking about? Those refugees are not recognized as official residents by Fuxing City, but I recognize them. Every human on the Raging Owl is a subject of the empire.
They are all my subjects. I want you to publicize my kindness, my policies, and my declaration to them, and let them migrate here. If they are in difficulty, you must provide them with necessary help, and I will even directly help them if necessary.
They, do you understand what I mean?"
Henry was stunned when he heard this.
Why didn't you understand?
You must understand it then.
Whoring for free?
Don’t you just want to get people here if you don’t want to pay?
Henry looked very ashamed: "Yes, that's right, I am shallow..."
But according to the Governor, it doesn't seem like there's nothing going on at all.
Although Fuxing City is large, it can only provide so many jobs and support so many people. Outside the city, there are many refugees who cannot survive. It is not impossible to make these people willing to migrate here through publicity.
"But... Your Excellency, Governor, please forgive me. If we follow this method, the quantity and quality of the refugees who may migrate cannot be guaranteed. Most of the refugees who cannot survive are old, weak, sick and disabled;
Those who are strong and healthy can still find a job to support themselves."
Gu Hang waved his hand and said, "This is your job. Spreading my will to the people is also a sign of your loyalty. Don't let me down."
Damn, I really want to have sex for free!
Denison Henry could only say helplessly: "Yes, I understand what to do."
…
After sending away the complacent and ambitious Hong Shang, who was ready to do something big and had to satisfy both his reasonable and unreasonable demands, Gu Hang got busy with another thing non-stop.
He asked his follower Zhang Chao to send another communication message to Fuxing City.
Wohan, a member of the alliance, was a cultist's matter, and Gu Hang needed to ask Fuxing City to give him an explanation.
Of course, it doesn't matter how you explain it.
What Gu Hang needs is an opportunity to use the topic to his advantage.
Originally, he had to work hard to find this opportunity.
Now, there is a ready-made one.
There is a cult member in the Alliance Parliament, the nominal governing body of the Alliance.
When Wohan was resisting, he used the storm magic. When Gu Hang figured out that it was not his own spiritual power, but had some source of it, he almost burst into laughter.
After capturing Wohan alive, he had almost obtained the necessary interrogation and information.
This guy definitely believes in a cult.
Although he is not a devout believer, he does believe in what the original Moonkin Sect said, and is willing to use his status as a councilor to provide movement convenience to those cultists, and he will also donate money and materials.
He is not a core member, he is just a believer, but he is richer.
He also obtained some things, such as receiving the 'blessing from God' and mastering the magic of storm; he could ask cultists to help him do some secret things that he could not do easily.
In fact, this time he wanted to trouble the Governor. He wanted to ask the Original Angry Owl Sect to take action, but they couldn't arrange it temporarily because they were busy with other things.
With these confessions and the fact that Wohan himself was still alive, Gu Hang had the greatest leverage to launch an attack.
After the communication with Fuxing City was connected, the person talking to Gu Hang was still the Alliance's Parliament Speaker, Miriam Hodgson.
"Hello, Lord Governor." Hodgson opened his mouth to greet him first.
Gu Hang didn't give any face, and his tone was very stern: "Mr. Hodgson, I am very disappointed with your work."
Hearing the Governor's words, old Hodgson could already feel a dull pain in a nerve in his head.
The Governor is going to act like a monster again!
The large amount of supplies you asked for was given to you; I also sold the people you asked me to betray; what do you want now?
Hodgson replied weakly: "Please tell me, Lord Governor."
"How can alliance members be corrupted into heretics? How did you, the parliament leader, do it? Are the alliance parliament still loyal to the empire? Has Fuxing City become the home of the original Moonkin Sect?"
Gu Hang came out with a series of accusations.
Hodgson never expected that Gu Hang would actually say such a piece of news. A big pot was placed on his head, and he was stunned.
Before that, he didn't know Wohan was a cult member.
