Start with Planetary Governor

Chapter 1, My Manifesto
"In this world, just living is already very difficult."

"We lived in mines that had been abandoned before the war. We used the most primitive tools, even digging mines with bare hands, in exchange for leftovers from other survivors' camps. We didn't hurt anyone, we just wanted to live, But even so, some people put greedy eyes on us."

The black and thin man who knelt in front of Gu Hang and told his suffering was named Patel.He was neither tall nor strong, and his skin was rough under the dirty thin clothes.Judging from the appearance, it is indeed as he said, he is a person who digs food in the waste mine.

Patel continued: "Eight days ago, a group of wasteland bandits who called themselves 'Dead Prisoners' killed 42 of us and kidnapped [-]. God-emperor, the youngest among them was only four years old! They We were asked to pay a ransom, which we did, but they pushed the envelope and not only didn’t release them, they demanded more from us.”

"I went to Fuxing City, found the officials of the alliance, and asked them for help. They sent someone to issue a warning to the 'dead prisoners', telling them not to mess around..."

"Hehe, warning... the day before yesterday, those robbers cut the throats of two children at our door, and tore the piece of waste paper into pieces with blood on them. They claimed that we would pay twice the ransom within three days , or we will attack our mines, kill everyone, and take everything from us."

"We are in a desperate situation. Some people say that we have to escape, and some people say that even if we use hoes and fists, we have to fight those robbers with guns and cannons. But I know that we are not without a way out. Now this world has I have a new governor. I must come to you, Mr. Governor, and I beg your help, I beg you to save us."

Patel bowed his head, sincerely.From his perspective, he could only see Gu Hang's boots.They were a pair of soft leather boots, with satin-like ribbons and golden buckles, which looked elegant and complicated.

I don't know how long it will take more than 900 people from the waste hole society to work hard without eating or drinking for this pair of boots.

The boots moved in front of his eyes, Gu Hang folded his legs together, and asked him in a more comfortable posture:

"Why don't you come to me first before you find the alliance?"

Patel was stunned for a moment, and could only think of a reason, and said in a whisper: "We are a member of the alliance, and the alliance should govern this matter..."

Gu Hang shook his head and said: "You think you are a member of the alliance, the alliance will protect you, and I am just an airborne governor, maybe I can't sit in this position for two years, just like the previous governors, because I was executed because I couldn’t pay the taxes to the empire. You felt that I was not important, and you didn’t come to me until the alliance didn’t care about your affairs and you had nothing to do.”

"I definitely don't have such an idea!" Patel denied in fear. He gritted his teeth and made a major determination: "If you can save us, then we are willing to pay everything! After two years of imperial tax, we will Pay at a higher level!"

Gu Hang became even more disappointed: "Let me put it this way, Patel, you clearly know that I came to this planet a month ago, and my camp is here, not far from you. But you never visited Passed me until something happened, and you knelt in front of me and said, 'Your Excellency, please save us', but you didn't regard me as the real governor from the bottom of your heart, and you didn't even want to believe that I was the first day I came here. declaration."

"I said that I want to rebuild the entire wasteland world, so that everyone who submits to me can live a good life. But you don't believe it, many of you never believe it, and only think of me as an annoying tax collector. You pay taxes in exchange for the people I save you, so how do you want to pay taxes? According to the requirements of the imperial tax standard, all the people in the Abandoned Cave Club are exhausted in the mines, and you can’t afford it.”

Patel's dark and capable face looked extremely nervous: "Your Excellency, I believe your words, please save us."

As he said that, he was about to knock his head heavily on the ground.

But it was stopped by Gu Hang.

A pair of hands pinched his shoulders, lifting him to stand up without any resistance.

Gu Hang put his arms around Patel's shoulders, not disliking the oil and dust on his body at all:
"No need to kowtow, no need to kneel. I will definitely help those of you who work diligently. Those looters who are not productive are our common enemy. But they are only small problems, and rebuilding the world is a big deal. This is not empty words, since you are begging me, then I will completely save you, not just eliminate some 'prisoners', I will also help you, build a territory, have enough food and clothing. Now, I ask you, do you believe me?"

Patel's tears fell, and he didn't know how much was moved, how much was saved, and how much was because of acting: "I believe! I fully believe! From now on, Wudong Society will serve you Strive for your ideal!"

"This should be our common ideal."

Gu Hang patted Patel's shoulder: "Go and rest for a while, I will take my troops and rescue your compatriots in a short time."

"God Emperor, my compatriots and I are extremely grateful for your help!"

Watching Patel as he followed a guard thankfully, after leaving the barracks, Gu Hang turned his gaze to the man in military uniform who was standing straight behind him: "Captain Yan, your eyes tell me that you have something Confuse."

Yan Fangxu saluted him, and then said hesitantly: "Are we... really going to help the Waste Cave Society? On this waste earth planet, similar things happen almost every day, and we can't control it. "

Gu Hang said regretfully: "It seems that, Captain Yan, you don't believe my declaration either."

"Don't dare." Yan Fangxu said so, but he really hesitated: "But...with all due respect, you only have two years, Governor Governor. Within two years, we must at least submit the entire anger according to the minimum standard. Xiaoxing's 'Empire Tax', otherwise..."

Gu Hang followed his words and said: "Otherwise I will be dismissed and executed, of course I know. But ah, Captain Yan, we have been on this planet for a month, and you have seen what it looks like. It is an experience In the place of a doomsday catastrophe, most of the land is not suitable for survival. The waste energy storm is raging so far. There are mutated alien monsters and predators who can't survive and can only be robbers. The remaining survivors are hiding in various settlements. point, struggle to survive.”

"It's already very difficult for them to live, and they can't afford to pay such high taxes. Collecting taxes is tantamount to killing them. The contradiction between imperial taxation and the development of the planet is the main contradiction of Star Fury. The past governors , they are all focusing on taxation. The biennial imperial taxation is like a reminder, and they all took their lives in the end. But I am different. I have to change my thinking. Development is the last word. More prosperity, taxes are a small burden, and we succeed."

Yan Fangxu sighed: "You are right, development is the right way. However, development takes time, but what we lack most is time. Your first term is only two years, at least you need to pay the imperial standard tax A quarter of the quota, but Nu Xiaoxing has always been able to hand in only one-eighth, and there is still half the difference. In two years, if you want to double the planet's output value, this..."

"That depends on my ability." Gu Hang smiled, "It just so happens that I have some confidence in this."

As he was speaking, a illusory message that only he could see popped up in front of his eyes:

[The 1st Servant Light Infantry Battalion (300 people), the training is completed, and the troop level has been raised to T5. 】

[Limited by the level of equipment and the quality of personnel, the unit can no longer continue to train and improve. 】

Gu Hang's smile grew wider. He patted Yan Fangxu's shoulder, who was still worried, and said, "Let's gather our troops. It's time for us to seek justice for our neighbors."
