Chapter 222 Detailed discussion
Elizabeth took a building block, played with it in her hand and then said: "So, Mr. Detective, we only need to send enough police officers to the East District to solve the problem?"
We? I have no right to interfere with the security of the Capital District. This Miss Rose's tone seems to really mobilize the police in the Capital District.
"No, if we want to fundamentally solve the problem, if we want to fundamentally solve the problem in the East District, we must re-establish order from above and arrest the top leaders of the mafia and the corrupt elements who collude with them."
"This is a bit difficult." Martin felt that it would be difficult for him to promote the new policies he envisaged in a small city of Lesdu. In the capital of a kingdom, where the intricate places are being cleaned up, the resistance is not that great.
"If the upper road is difficult to walk, try the lower road. Changes must be made from the citizens. We need to provide enough jobs in the East District. If everyone can make money in Bruguet, they will be able to live freely.
If you identify with this country in your heart, the foundation for the mafia's survival will be gone. If the citizens have enough money to pay taxes and support enough police officers, public security will naturally be better."
"Citizens pay taxes to support the police?" Elizabeth asked curiously, "Isn't it the state that pays to hire them?"
Is this lady completely unaware of Bruguet’s current situation? Annick explained after silence:
"Although the police in various places claim to be the servants of the king, it is the city councils in each place that actually pay them. So how do you convince the councilors in other districts to use the tax money collected from their districts to hire the police in the East District."
“So the East End’s economy needs to be developed?”
"Yes, when people have money, their moral standards and security needs will also increase. After they have money and choices, why should they accept the mafia's exploitation at all levels."
After Elizabeth was silent, she thought about the characteristics of Lumang East District.
Seeing that Miss Rose didn't say anything, Annick asked tentatively.
"Miss Rose, does Lumang East District have no pillar enterprises or specialty industries?"
"I'm sorry to say it, but even in Lumang, the capital of science and technology, the Eastern District does not have much special features. Maybe Canli immigrants require relatively low wages? This can be regarded as an advantage in developing industries."
Sweatshop? But you can't afford that in a capital city.
"I don't think this is a big advantage. Compared with Lumang, labor costs in small cities around Lumang are lower. By the way, what are the characteristics of immigrants from the Kingdom of Canli besides low wages?"
"Well, I haven't had any contact with them." Elizabeth confessed truthfully.
"Let me tell you, several of the sailors who are descendants of Serri on our ship are more or less interested in playing musical instruments and painting, and many of them like to play art." Drake thought of his captain, who was a Serrei type.
.Although most sailing captains are very reliable, they always make some sexy news every time they dock.
"Artistic? That's something to do. There are a lot of rich people in Lumang. Miss Rose, I want to build the East District into a cultural and arts center, which may improve the local environment."
"Art Center? I understand."
Do you really understand? Annick shook his head and waited until she hit the wall. Forget it, just go about your own business.
"By the way, Mr. Sailor, do you know a famous pirate on the sea?"
Drake, one of the ten kings of the sea, finally felt a little better after feeling deflated many times here.
I didn't expect that you, the boy, also have a problem and asked me for advice. You need to get the place back.
"Tell me, I think I know a lot about the four sea emperors in the Sea of Storms and the little pirates who weigh two hundred pounds each."
"Then I'm welcome. Do you know the tyrant's first mate? His name is Hilton."
Drake was a little suspicious when he heard that. How come even the grassroots knew that Hilton had come to Eggsburg?
"What, why are you interested in transparent people?"
"Transparent person?" Annick was a little interested when he heard it.
"That's Hilton's nickname. His main skill is that he can become transparent, just like a rubber balloon, and he can change his appearance freely."
"It's a bit difficult to deal with." Annick felt that this kind of person was just here for assassination. He could appear transparent and change his appearance.
"He is at sea, why do you people from Eggsburg have to deal with him?" Drake asked, pretending not to know that Hilton had come to the shore.
"Come to Eggsburg, and we encountered traces of him a few days ago."
"Let the special operations department handle it."
Drake continued to watch the policeman's performance and had to cooperate with him.
"Don't I want to make some extra money? By the way, does this transparent person have any unique hobbies or hobbies?"
Drake thought for a moment. "He is particularly fond of women. Every time the tyrant robs the ship, only the more beautiful women can survive."
The price? The price of using superpowers is really special. It’s because I prefer women instead of men.
"Okay, does this transparent person have any character weaknesses or something like that?"
This little policeman wouldn't really challenge a spiritual being. Derek still hoped that his partner would live longer.
"Conceited and arrogant, but also very cunning and cautious. In short, it is difficult to deal with. Don't try to challenge me beyond the level."
"Thank you Mr. Sailor for reminding me, I will only follow and provide intelligence to the special operations department to make some extra money." Annick's cowardice was much deeper than they thought.
"That's good."
"Do you have anything else to do? If nothing else, we will be here today?" Annick took care of himself and became the host.
"Yes, I have a question. Last week, the priest of our church asked me to answer a question: What is the difference between fairness and equality? Let me think about it. The God of Justice and Order that I believe in begins with fairness, not equality."
Martin raised his hand and put forward his idea.
"What's the difference between the two? I can't understand what you clergy are thinking about all day long." Drake heard that this was a bit big-headed, and he was not good at this kind of twists and turns.
"I think fairness emphasizes consistency in means and rules, and equality means that everyone shares the results equally." Compared to Drake, who is a poor student, Elizabeth obviously has some ideas.
"What are you doing, Mr. Detective?" Martin heard Miss Rose's thoughts and had some ideas. Then he looked at Mr. Detective, who often had more ideas in his head.
"Well, in fact, Miss Rose has already explained part of it. Let me add something. When equality is established, there will be no differences between people. Everyone is assigned the same rights and obligations. It is an ideal relationship between people."
After Annick's long speech, everyone was silent and thinking. After a while, he continued:
