Chapter 693: Plan and Goal
In the center of the hall of the National Assembly, Lei Luo frantically advocated the dividends of the war in full view of everyone, supplemented by the support of various national policies, and soon mobilized the emotions of most of the people present and successfully transformed his goal into the goal of everyone.
Although the ninja war is a matter between ninjas, but now that Konoha and the country of fire are officially integrated, the affairs of ninjas can also become the affairs of ordinary people, such as what country takes money to make ninja equipment, produce detonation charms and the like, which are all pediatric, more important......
"The third-generation chakra reagent produced by the Konoha Research Institute, that is, it can make ordinary people have a 40% chance of sensing chakra, and then successfully become a secret medicine for ninjas, has now passed clinical trials with a zero lethality rate."
"So I propose that everyone present work together, and some people contribute money to produce this reagent in large quantities, and carry out recruitment operations throughout the Fire Country, screen out more ninjas to participate in the ninja war, and lay the foundation for our Fire Country!"
This speech, Lei Luo said impassionedly, and it was magnificent, and in the blink of an eye, it shocked everyone in the hall of Congress.
No one could have imagined that Konoha would quietly research such a powerful thing and make ordinary people become ninjas? Are you sure it's not a joke?
Maeda Takashi and Chida Yu, the two party representatives, subconsciously glanced at each other, the latter did not speak, but the former looked up at Lei Luo after a short thought:
"Hokage, to be honest, it's a good thing that there are more and more ninjas, from all angles, it's this third-generation reagent, how much does it cost?"
"If the total amount of the plan is less than one billion, then I personally agree with this decision."
Whether it is to build infrastructure, invest in various business activities, or organize human resources to do this or that, they all need money, and the richest group of people in the Fire Country are the capitalists who have become members of Congress.
With the power in hand, although it can earn more benefits for itself through legislation, the obligations corresponding to the power must still be undertaken, including paying taxes and investing in the country's industrial construction.
And since the scale of this national ninja plan proposed by Lei Luo is the entire territory of the Fire Country, the cost must be very large.
Moreover, it is estimated that the majority of the money will have to be paid by the capitalists of them, who will make them richer than the bureaucrats?
In other words, Lei Luo kept his promise and put the capitalists in the position of rulers of the Fire Nation, allowing them to successfully achieve the class leap.
This level of sincerity can't be bought just with money, so even if it's to save face for Lei Luo, the capital councilors led by Tian Gaozhi in the past know what attitude they should show.
What's more, there are more and more ninjas, which can not only make the country's military strength stronger, and a large number of ninjas will be derived, but it can provide labor that is far cheaper than ordinary people, which is obviously beneficial to capital.
Maeda Takashi's words seemed to be an introduction, and the capital parliamentarians discussed it in a low voice, while the bureaucratic parliamentarians couldn't stop looking at each other, obviously the national ninja plan was not what they originally expected.
Under the influence of the parliamentarians, the inside of the parliament hall was also full of whispers, and everyone present discussed the prospects of the comprehensive ninja plan, some of them opposed and some of them supported it, and their opinions were extremely different.
Lei Luo, who was standing in the center of the lobby, lowered his head and thought silently, but soon, he raised his head again, a look of solemnity flashed in his eyes, and he said loudly:
"Silence!"
After just one sound, the field fell silent, feeling the Dao gaze on him, Lei Luo cleared his throat and continued to pick up on the previous words:
"The cost of a reagent is about 300,000 taels, since Mr. Gao Zhi's psychological price is one billion, then I propose to produce 9,000 reagents first, spread them in the major cities and towns of the Fire Country, and see how the effect is."
"In addition, the money is paid by the cabinet, and the investors hold half of the shares, and the state takes the other half, all of which is used as a loan to the people who receive the injections, and when they become ninjas and make money, they will repay the state and individuals one after another."
One billion taels is not much for the capitalists, you take a little and I can easily get it together, and this money is not wasted, if it is counted as a loan, it also takes care of the interests of their capital.
After comprehensive consideration of all aspects, the capital councillors raised their hands to agree, and the bureaucratic councilors on the other side, although extremely unwilling to let the ninja's power continue to grow, but one-third of the councillors have agreed, and one-third of the councillors are Konoha people, even if they oppose it, it is useless.
Seeing the twenty-one councillors raise their hands one after another, Lei Luo nodded slowly, and added a second explanation to the previous issue of land resource distribution.
In general, don't think about the land in the country, if you want to hold the land personally, then support the country, support Konoha, win the war, make the land cake bigger and bigger, and everyone will have a share at that time.
Although the members of the capital parliament were dissatisfied with this policy, in view of other policies, including the state to organize manpower to build factory facilities, organize manpower to carry out compulsory recruitment and study, and greatly reduce the tax on factory construction......
With the policies in place in these roundtable agreements, Lei Luo's sincerity is still very strong, so although he is unwilling, he can still control it, and the capital councillors agree, and the strategy of external expansion has been settled.
From this point, it can be seen that as long as Lei Luo and the capital forces negotiate now, then it is this ninja merchant alliance that holds the power of the Fire Country, and as for the collection of those nobles and bureaucrats, the elements of the old times are just used as a façade to appease people's hearts.
Under the simple and crude system of voting by show of hands by the minority obeying the majority, the Congress is almost a hall of words for Lei Luo, with both economy and force in his hands, and even if the old aristocracy and the old bureaucracy are not satisfied, it will be of no use in the slightest.
Aware of the current situation, the bureaucratic councilors led by Chida Yu naturally quieted down, except for occasionally criticizing the ignorance of the capital councilors, they didn't say anything, and they were even more brainless in support of Lei Luo's decision-making.
In this way, two hours passed, the legislative process and some important project formulation links passed, and the election of the prime minister, including the corresponding cabinet formation, was finally about to begin.
I don't know what kind of psychology it is, the bureaucratic parliamentarians ignored the Guanghui Daimyo present, and collectively elected Lei Luo as the first prime minister of the Fire Country.
Rao is Lei Luo repeatedly shirked, indicating that he had no intention of being the prime minister at all, but under the repeated insistence of everyone, he reluctantly accepted the appointment.
To be honest, Lei Luo really doesn't want to be the prime minister, in his eyes, as long as the Fire Nation can implement the general direction according to his own will......
He was reluctant to take on the specific tasks of managing cabinet members, approving projects, and making administrative decisions, which he knew to be very time-consuming.
The policy of separating the military from the government has not changed until now, and Lei Luo knows that people's energy is limited, as long as he firmly grasps the military power and occupies one-third of the seats in the Congress, it will be enough.
