Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 313

313. Chapter 312, I am an Alliance member!

In the Qinggu area, a group of investigators had just returned from hunting… Oh, they were investigating clues.

They also heard the Governor’s speech on the radio.

A young inquisitor hesitated and said, “Is our ‘team leader’…really back to investigate clues? Why did he leave us here and go to make a global speech? I don’t think he takes the work of the investigation team seriously. He just wants to come back to be his governor!”

His question caused a burst of laughter from the other members of the investigation team next to him.

He was confused and didn’t know what was so funny about what he said.

The others were too lazy to explain to him. They didn’t know each other well. There were people from the Ecclesiarchy, from the Mechanicus, from the Psionic Order, from the Ministry of Justice… They formed a team temporarily and didn’t want to say anything that shouldn’t be said to this young man.

Only the old inquisitor from the Inquisition, like him, stopped the young man who wanted to speak again, pulled him aside, and whispered to him.

“What nonsense are you talking about? If you can see it, don’t talk nonsense, otherwise everyone will laugh at you.”

“Why? You are not allowed to talk?”

“Then Team Leader Gu came back to be the governor, and why are we here on the Wrathful Owl Planet?”

“To investigate clues!”

“What have you investigated these days?”

“Uh…” He recalled that he ate delicious food in different ways every day. The grains, meats and other products produced here in the agricultural center were all natural.

This is very rare in the empire, especially in some nest cities and planets with large populations.

How can naturally raised livestock, vegetables and fruits be as cost-effective as large quantities of synthetic meat, artificial fiber and vitamins?

Of course, there is no need to mention the high-level dignitaries and the rich who have money but nowhere to spend. But this group of investigators are not the top bosses in their respective forces. They are more than enough to be middle-class, and they are not rich.

Then they really can’t eat this kind of pure natural food.

As for the so-called investigation activities… He really thought it was an investigation before, but now thinking back, it was just hunting to relieve boredom.

“Come here and enjoy the food and drinks. Just enjoy your vacation. You still need to investigate? The demonic disaster here was brought under control as soon as it showed signs. It has been a year and a half. What else is there to investigate?”

“This…” The young man found it hard to accept.

“If you don’t like it, you can investigate it yourself, or report it yourself after you go back. But I tell you, don’t make trouble for yourself. If you report it, things won’t change. This is what the higher-ups have tacitly agreed to, and it may even be the result of some exchange of interests.”

Having said that, the old judge said no more.

After returning, a familiar person smiled and said, “Why do you care so much? Young people will know how to do things after hitting the wall a few times.”

“Isn’t it to avoid spoiling everyone’s fun?”

…

On the Angry Owl Star, the people who listened to Governor Gu’s entire speech were not only the people in the investigation team.

There were also more than 250,000 interstellar immigrants.

210,000 of them were brought back from Koroja 3 when Governor Gu returned this time; the other 40,000 were brought back from Black Arrow Star when the Alliance hired Gu’s Trading Company’s ships to transport supplies to the Alliance troops stationed on Black Arrow Star.

Governor Gu’s speech was all about the Alliance and the development of Angry Owl Star, and he didn’t mention much about the immigrants.

However, after hearing the Governor’s speech, the immigrants were still very excited and full of longing.

In the past achievements that Governor Gu described, they realized that the Alliance, as the ruling body of this planet, had great power and firm will.

And in the future picture described by the Governor, they saw that a better life was beckoning to them.

The Alliance did not specifically mention what would happen to these people, but in fact, there was no need to mention it.

After arriving at the Wrathful Owl Star, each of them was assigned a corresponding rank. Most of them were at the E4 level, which was not up to the level of the Alliance’s E5-level official citizens, which meant that their citizenship rights were not complete, and their welfare benefits were not good.

But… whether it was the people from Koroga 3 or the people from Black Arrow Star, they generally had no dissatisfaction with this.

E4 was enough, and the welfare and allowances per capita amounted to 0.3 tax coins per year.

Is this not enough?

When Koroga 3 treated people like livestock, the per capita consumption of 0.1 was considered to be no deduction by the masters.

The consumption of food and industrial products increased threefold at once, so what was there to be dissatisfied with?

What’s more, a bright road was laid out in front of them. Obtaining the rank of E4 was a start. The Alliance assigned them corresponding jobs or learning opportunities, and the conditions were relatively loose. As long as they worked hard for a year, it would be very easy to raise their rank to E5, obtain full citizenship, and improve their own treatment.

The governor was talking about the Alliance, but he was also talking about them.

Most of them had already abandoned the fear of being away from their hometown when they migrated on the starship.

To hell with the shabby lower district of the hive city! We are all Alliance people now!

Mandoya Lucas was one of the people who quickly changed this identity.

Moreover, unlike most of her compatriots, although she was born in the lower district, she was able to make it through many opportunities. At the age of 40, she made it to the upper district and became a hive construction planner based on what she learned.

It sounds good, but in fact she is just a wage earner.

Due to her poor background, her career ceiling is limited, and many of her ideas and designs are not taken seriously.

There are obviously many plans that, as long as they are completed, can greatly improve the living conditions and quality of the residents in the lower district, but these designs have always been kept at the bottom of the box.

If she completely abandons her past, she may be able to live a good life.

But she just can’t forget the lower district of Fino City.

The environment there is dangerous, there are many bad people, gangs are rampant, cults are breeding, honest people live in water and heat, but once they have the chance, they will immediately become people who oppress others…

It’s almost terrible there.

But she never thinks that the people there are wrong.

The desperate environment is the root of everything.

When the plague broke out, she was investigating in her “hometown” and carrying out a new round of designs.

In the disaster, like many refugees, she was rescued by the army from the Angry Owl Star and saved her life, and then she was sent to the starship to the Angry Owl Star in a daze.

After listening to Governor Gu’s radio speech, she was shocked.

This was a speech she had never heard on Korojia 3-the dignitaries there were too lazy to even pretend to love their people.

She had some hope in her heart.

Perhaps, her abilities could be demonstrated on another planet.

With a nervous mood, she found the team leader of the textile factory job she was assigned to, expressed her abilities, and hoped to meet the “people above”.

She thought she would be harassed a lot, which was common in Koroja 3. She even prepared a lot of excuses to increase her credibility.

But no.

She went all the way up and met the mayor of Weixing City, Mr. Palt.
