Chapter 283 Gears of War(1/2)
The police lights flashed, and a large number of PLCs were investigating nearby. Several young people in the house had been carried out and put into body bags, waiting to be dissected after returning.
Several WBI agents also came. There are doubts about this case. It is not difficult for these young people to get guns, but they have been so noisy for a long time. Some neighbors even saw them drinking more than they did tonight.
I was still drunk, but no problems occurred.
What is happening now seems a bit unbelievable to many people, and these young people have gun licenses, all the documents are complete, and the guns have been sent for testing.
"Ma'am, are you sure the relationship between these young people is good?"
A detective was investigating with a neighbor woman, and the woman nodded.
"Yes, they have been together for a long time. Although they have had conflicts, their relationship is very good. They both work part-time or work on a daily basis from time to time. When they have no money, they go out to work. When they have money, they get together to party."
Another detective was questioning the apartment manager, and no one in the entire apartment building had seen them have any major conflicts.
It's just a bit annoying at night. Although the PLC has come to mediate a few times, the effect is not very good. They will temporarily restrain themselves, and then start holding such carnival parties again.
But recently they planned to save money and add some soundproofing to the house. These young people would shoot each other and all of them died. This kind of thing seemed incredible to the people in the whole building.
Moreover, the gun almost always kills with one blow, either the heart or the head, which makes many investigators find it puzzling, so the case must be investigated carefully.
10 am.
Selena was drinking coffee and watching the news on TV. Tommy had just come back from the office. At this time, a piece of news caught Selena's attention. Several young people gathered together for a drunken carnival, and finally because of some unknown reason.
They drew guns and shot at each other, resulting in the death of all seven people.
Because there are doubts about the case, the PLC is currently investigating with all its strength, and the WBI has also set up a task force to investigate.
"It's really scary, dear, young people today are already living a very good life, why don't they go to work? Such a life is not good, and it will disturb the neighbors."
Tommy took the coffee from Selina, took a sip and smiled.
"Who knows, some people just don't like working."
Selena smiled and nodded.
"Indeed, no one is born to like to work. If I can live a stable life, I don't want to work."
Tommy smiled and kissed his wife on the forehead.
"Come on, Madam President, you are not going to a nursing home today."
Serena then stood up, hugged Tommy and said coquettishly.
"My dear, I also want to have a good rest with you and lie in bed doing nothing all day long."
"How about tomorrow?"
Selena blushed and nodded, kissed Tommy and then went out. Tommy was holding coffee and watching the news reports and interviews with some neighbors at the scene.
"It looks like it was too hasty. It should have fired a few more shots."
Tommy stood up as he spoke. He sneered and returned to the office with coffee, where several ministers were still waiting.
"At present, some people are unwilling to go to work."
Susan said, Tommy laughed, he laughed.
"This country is free, and it is those people's right not to go to work."
Tommy looked at the current unemployment rate, which actually started to rise. Because the country has launched various benefits, and many Stikas have been integrated into human society, many people have received a lot of subsidies every month.
Enough to live on.
Because the current welfare is even better than many people worked desperately for a month before, Tommy's purpose in doing this is just to make people's lives better.
Nowadays, these things are being reported everywhere. Some lazy people have been born. Some people even suddenly quit their jobs and started to eat, drink and have fun everywhere.
“Should some benefits be cancelled?”
Susan asked. She has completely changed her view of Tommy. She used to think that Tommy was just a dictator and a tyrant, but now Susan thinks that many of Tommy's actions are right.
"If you don't work within three months, your benefits will be cancelled."
Tommy said and Susan nodded.
"I think three months is too much, Mr. President. Many industries are now facing a massive shortage of people, and some people can even work for only one month and then have fun for two months, and then continue working, so they still have holes to take advantage of."
Tommy laughed.
"Minister Susan, the three months I am talking about are not three consecutive months, but three cumulative months. If you have not worked for more than ninety days, the state's subsidy benefits will be permanently cancelled."
Susan laughed.
"Mr. President, you are thinking far-reaching, and you can indeed give some tired people enough rest time."
Tommy hummed.
"After the employment rate has fully increased, the 90 days can be gradually adjusted to within three years, or within two years, depending on the efficiency and attitude of the practitioners."
Tommy's words shocked Susan, and she smiled.
"Mr. President, you are really thoughtful. We will go back to study the decision immediately and then issue a formal system."
Tommy hummed and then said.
"For this group of people, let those who participate in community services provide good guidance, and strictly instruct companies that once they violate labor laws, they must be severely punished. It is not just as simple as direct fines, but the person in charge must be directly arrested."
Susan hummed. Tommy's purpose in doing this was to further consider the rights of workers. Indeed, due to the lack of market, many companies make employees work overtime every day, and there have been cases of karoshi.
As a result, the company went bankrupt and all its qualifications were revoked. However, such things still happened in some places, but this incident made many factory owners smarter. They will find solutions as soon as possible after a problem occurs.
Solve it with money.
Susan continued.
"Mr. President, many companies have begun to transform. In the future, electric energy is an industry that we must expand, so now..."
Tommy laughed.
"Minister Susan, it is not possible to build a huge electric energy industry. I have already said it."
Susan didn't quite understand, Tommy laughed.
"What we need is decentralized and integrated. The scale can be small, but it must be dense. I have already said it."
Susan didn't quite understand that it would be more troublesome to build some power generation facilities in this way, but since Tommy said this, he must have a reason, and Susan didn't dare to refute, let alone ask more questions.
"That's it, Miss Susan. If there is a war in the future, and the enemy only needs to attack our power plants, then our entire country will be paralyzed. If these power plants are distributed across the country, they will not be able to cut off our power supply.
.”
Tommy said as he retrieved a piece of information and passed it to Susan.
"I have discussed with many scientists, and they have accurately calculated how power plants are distributed, which can make the country a perpetual motion machine. Even if any place is attacked, other places will not be without energy supply."
Susan took one look and said.
"I'll get started right away, Mr. President."
Susan said and bowed and left, while Tommy discussed with the Minister of Food.
"Now that our food production has begun to recover, I need a team in the future that can meet all the nutritional needs of the people in a short time and can store food that will not spoil for a long time."
The Minister of Food was stunned, then laughed.
"That's only compressed food, Mr. President, but if these foods are produced and stored too much, in the future..."
"I don't care what happens in the future. All the excess food will be made into this kind of compressed food. Remember, it must be able to be stored for a long time and be able to easily satisfy people's stomachs."
The Minister of Food became confused and asked.
"Will war really come?"
Tommy hummed.
"It will definitely come, don't you believe my prediction?"
Tommy asked with a smile, and the food minister shook his head in embarrassment.
"Of course I trust you very much, Mr. President, and I will start preparations today."
"No need, I have asked people from the Science Department to prepare some detailed plans in advance. You just need to implement them faithfully. If there are not enough people, we will recruit a large number of people."
After the food minister left, Tommy showed a cold smile.
Tommy is now preparing for a full-scale war. The energy produced by the Stekas has completely become a war energy reserve, and now it is a material reserve for various wars.
