Chapter 127, Long live the Governor!

In fact, not all inner-city people are rich.

With such poor productivity, how can we support so many rentiers?

Most people in the inner city still have to rely on their own work to support themselves and their families. They just have a relatively richer family background, better education, and better and more opportunities.

They are industrial workers, employees of factories and enterprises, clerks of chambers of commerce, and affairs officers under the alliance government... They have stable and even decent jobs, but this is the source of everything they have.

In fact, under the new system designed by Gu Hang, if these people work well, their chances will still be much greater than those from outside the city. Their advantages are their better education and richer work experience.

But this cannot be believed by just propaganda. Gu Hang does not need to use empty words to maintain stability for the time being. His army can do this in a short time.

As for the future, these inner city dwellers will feel this through actual experience.

In fact, he already had some preliminary ideas about the entire future political and economic structure, and had an agreement with Ossena.

The entire people's livelihood system will be established on forty-five levels: A-E, each with 9 levels.

Each level will be equipped with corresponding welfare benefits, including food rations, housing benefits, medical benefits, and determine the purchase rights for a small number of scarce commodities.

Every formal employee will receive at least E6-level treatment after entering the workplace. Those below E6 will receive relief for apprentices, trainees, partially subsidized students, criminal workers, and those who are unemployed for no reason other than their own...

The specific level is determined according to position and individual work contribution.

Although there is a certain link between rank and position, they are not completely consistent in fact. In the early stage, low-ranking employees will be promoted year by year based on their seniority and work contribution, which means that their basic benefits will be improved.

The promotion speed will slow down after reaching higher ranks.

Those with significant performance will be promoted.

The treatment of army soldiers does not follow this line, but it will correspond. Private soldiers and upper class soldiers have allowances similar to those of E-level, which vary depending on the army. After retirement, they will try to arrange jobs at the corresponding level; non-commissioned officers and senior non-commissioned officers

Some lower-level officers correspond to D grade; middle and high-level officers retire with C-level treatment; senior officers and general officers retire with B-level or A-level treatment depending on the situation.

Salaries for ranks and positions will also be paid monthly, but it is no longer in alliance currency. Now it is work points, and there may be certain currency reforms in the future. By spending work points or currency, you can buy things in the store.

Most civilian products, as long as they are not scarce, will be put on the shelves normally.

Want to eat better non-staple food in addition to regular food rations, such as cakes, ice cream, meat and dairy products? You can buy it;

Want high-quality electrical appliances? You can buy them;

Want to buy a Sanbengzi, or even use it as a car? You may not be able to buy it in the short term, but when the production volume increases in the future, the demand for military supplies is met, and there is additional production capacity, you can also buy it. It may still be available in the early stage

Rank restrictions can be lifted after the production capacity becomes more abundant.

After you have more supplies, you can buy everything such as personal hobbies, reading, entertainment, art...

In other words, housing, food and clothing, and medical care are all guaranteed as long as you enter this new system; wages can meet higher-level, more personalized, and diversified needs.

Want something better? Yes, work hard for a promotion and a salary increase.

Only education is an exception.

For this thing, Gu Hang plans to take the route of public administration, free of charge, and all depends on the results.

This system will include future civil servants, industrial workers, service industries, farmers...

Of course, at present, this entire system looks beautiful and somewhat utopian, but there may be many problems in its actual implementation.

Ensuring fairness, ensuring reasonable promotions, ensuring adequate supply of materials to meet individual and diverse needs, fighting corruption, avoiding institutional rigidity, planning material distribution and production plans... there are many problems.

But this kind of collective, planned system has a fundamental advantage: it is easier to concentrate efforts on big things.

On Raging Owl, there is one fundamental difference from the modern world: there is no problem of overproduction for a long time.

The significance of market regulation is not that great.

All excess production capacity will be eliminated by the huge pressure of imperial taxation.

The only thing Gu Hang has to do is to expand production capacity as much as possible. No matter how many things he makes, it doesn't matter if he can't sell or use them. The empire's huge system will eat them all.

Under this premise, the most important thing for Gu Hang himself is how to make this system full of incentives for the people within it.

He is not allowed to lie down, eat and wait for death, and the situation of muddling along in terms of welfare appears on a large scale.

These ideas should be put on the street lights, but they are what Gu Hang must do.

Promotion in rank, increase in salary, and vigorous promotion of values ​​are all positive incentives.

Performance appraisal, competitive upgrade quotas, downgrade penalty system...

This type of means that relatively encourages competition is also essential.

If the people don't work hard, how can Gu Hang prosper?

Work hard and the Governor will be able to get a sports car next year.

Of course, this is a joke. What Gu Hang wants is not those vulgar tastes.

Expand the army, develop industry, build starships, raise one or more battle groups... His ambitions are very big.

Talking back to the current reality, once these inner-city people enter his new system, due to their advantages in education level, professional skills, and previous professional experience, they are naturally better at everything than those in the outer city who are not even sure how to pronounce.

Poor people who can recognize the completeness will be more powerful. They will easily obtain a higher starting level and upgrade faster.

As long as they support the Governor, they will feel the benefits.

It is not difficult to restore the past living standards. With the improvement of productivity, this is even inevitable. And better class mobility will give them opportunities that they could not have had in the past.

Good times are yet to come!

…

Gu Hang's divergent thinking came to an end with the death of the last batch of executioners.

Next, there is another major event: the medal ceremony and military parade.

These two things are put together.

In fact, there are only about ten thousand people standing in the huge square now, and the open space left is for the upcoming military parade.

Each troop will set off from the preparation area outside, one by one, accompanied by bugles and majestic music, walk through the main road outside the Parliament Square, and along the road given way by the spectators, to the rostrum.

The commander of the unit will go on stage to accept medals, military ranks, and more importantly, on behalf of the entire unit, accept the designation and flag.

Military music was already playing, and four military bands were making a lot of noise in the four directions of the square. Speakers were placed in different directions, further amplifying the music.

Immediately afterwards, a square formation came slowly.

Four 'Rambler V' infantry fighting vehicles led the charge. Behind them were tanks that had not yet been painted, captured from the former Alliance Army, and then a group of Iron Bull trucks, accompanied by Ranger motorcycles.

They moved forward. Some of these trucks were loaded with soldiers and used as personnel carriers, and some were tractor trucks towing huge 155mm howitzers.

This is the 3rd Battalion of the former Governor's Infantry Regiment. In the officer's vehicle at the front, sitting are Perbov of the 2nd Battalion and the chief officer of the 3rd Battalion.

In fact, it stands to reason that the 2nd Battalion should be the first to be inspected, and as the chief officer of the 2nd Battalion, Perbov was indeed the first. Unfortunately, he was a bit lonely, and the main force of his troops was still recruiting and preparing troops in Weixing City. He also

We can only take advantage of the 3rd Battalion's square formation.

The entire phalanx arrived under the rostrum. Whether they were soldiers in cars or on foot, they all shouted slogans!

First, the officer in front shouted "For the Emperor!", and all the soldiers behind him followed suit.

This was followed by another "For the Governor!"

Gu Hang stood at the front of the viewing platform, watching his troops pass by. His face was expressionless and he just nodded slightly.

The soldiers followed the instructions, entered the open space reserved for them in the square, and stood there. Purbov went on stage together with the commander of the 3rd Battalion.

Gu Hang personally put on the epaulettes symbolizing the rank of major for them; then, he put on the medals for them.

Gu Hang personally designed two styles of medals.

At this moment, what they are wearing are ‘Revival Medals’.

The shape of this medal is roughly round, with a hammer held tightly and raised upward, surrounded by ears of wheat.

Gu Hang intends to issue the Fuxing Medal as a basic medal. It will be mainly awarded to soldiers and officers who have participated in a series of battles in Fuxing City and performed outstandingly.

Half of the recipients were those who died heroically or were wounded. Needless to mention the former, the latter will basically retire after receiving the medal.

These medals are not recognized throughout the empire, unlike military ranks. The ranks of the Planetary Defense Force will be recognized by the imperial military - although the gold content is hugely different.

But Gu Hang still needs to establish this system.

Soldiers who fight for themselves deserve honor.

Moreover, in addition to honor, medals also have tangible benefits. The 'Revival Medal' itself is equivalent to an E5-level allowance. Don't look at it too much, but it is extra on top of the original soldier allowance.

out. Moreover, this allowance will continue until retirement. Even if there is disability or death, the pension will be larger.

In fact, the purpose of issuing medals to disabled retired and fallen soldiers is to provide additional pensions to the soldiers who died heroically in battle and to send them to their relatives.

As for those who have no relatives, the military political department will arrange for an orphan - there are too many in the wasteland - to inherit them, but the premise is that the orphan needs to inherit the hero's surname.

They will be raised in special institutions for war orphans and receive necessary education.

After Gu Hang gave the two battalion commanders their military titles and medals, the awarding ceremony for them was over, and the phalanx of the 4th Battalion had already come behind them.
To be continued...
