The meeting ended quickly.
No, it wasn't exactly a meeting because Jiang Chen didn't discuss it with them. Instead, he announced the future plans.
From today onwards, the Sixth Street will implement a ten day curfew until the situation stabilizes.
The ten member council will be expanded to twenty members, divided into the upper house and the lower house, respectively composed of businessmen and industry representatives. The upper house will be composed of the top ten businessmen, and the lower house will be elected by general election.
Due to the loss of eighty percent of the civil force and the corruption within, the civil force will be disbanded. The defense of the Sixth Street will be completely taken over by the Fishbone base.
To prevent a civil war from happening again, Jiang Chen announced the establishment of the Sixth Street military government on top of the council. The government will combine law enforcement and military power, and will have the right to veto any proposal made by the council. The council's power will be strictly limited to legislation and administration.
As to the head of the military government, the position of general, it will naturally be taken over by Jiang Chen.
The reason for the constitutional monarch-like decision was also Chu Nan's suggestion.
Jiang Chen was surprised to find that this guy knew a lot about politics.
"Although the power of the Group of Ten council was reduced by half in the city center and the civil war, it still shouldn't be underestimated. For example, their prestige in the Sixth Street and the soldiers deployed on the frontline. If we can't capture all of them, then we can only divide the power in their hands and make the smaller forces on our side. We only need to control the military power. There is not much difference between direct control and indirect control. "
The establishment of the lower house was undoubtedly great news for the small merchants, small mercenary groups, and hunter groups in the outer circle. Although there were many of them, they were not united as they had always been excluded from the core of power.
Jiang Chen's action, without a doubt, gained the support of the majority. Although they didn't do anything, it undoubtedly stabilized the situation. Coupled with the deterrence of military force, the slightly larger mercenary groups and other forces also chose to behave themselves.
As to the five council members, including Zhao Chenwu, they were all forced to accept the "honor chip" implantation and gloriously became the knights of the Fishbone base.
To their "cooperation," Jiang Chen expressed his appreciation and promised not to take over their assets in the Sixth Street, allowing them to keep their private army and property. Even the assets of the council members who unfortunately died, Jiang Chen gave them half of it as compensation for their loss. To a certain extent, it appeased their dissatisfaction.
To these ambitious people, this was the only way to restrict them.
…
On the second floor of the parliament building, an office was cleared out to serve as the office of the military government's marshal.
In front of the desk, Sun Jiao held the tablet in her hand and reported to Jiang Chen about the work over the past two days.
"The Crimson Chamber of Commerce's rebel army has a total of 52 captives, all of them have been implanted with slavery microchips, and have been reorganized into the Shen Xiang Town colony army. The rebels fighting in the city center saw that the coup had failed. One Wanderer tank surrendered to us because it ran out of fuel. The other three tanks retreated to the Crimson Chamber of Commerce's base outside the city. "
The surrender of a Wanderer tank was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise for Jiang Chen!
The electromagnetic reactive armor that used the Meissner effect could render most kinetic weapons that used metal cannonballs ineffective. The Particle Shield also had a certain degree of resistance against energy weapons. As the main cannon, the Type-52 Particle Cannon could render most armored units useless.
It could be said that because of the addition of the Wanderer tank, the armor strength of the Fishbone base would rise to another level.
"Is there any reaction from the Crimson Chamber of Commerce's military base outside the city?"
"Not at the moment. There seems to be some kind of internal dispute. With the death of Cao Jinsong, the slavery microchip implanted in his nephew, Cao Wei, has automatically lost its effectiveness. On the distribution of power, Cao Wei and Cao Jinsong's son, Cao Guangkai, had a conflict. "
"Another internal conflict …" Jiang Chen touched his chin as he muttered to himself.
"Since the human heart is not something that can be controlled by the microchip."
Human heart?
Jiang Chen shook his head and decided not to think about it as he signaled Sun Jiao to continue.
"From the battlefield and the Crimson Chamber of Commerce's warehouse, we obtained 10 power armors, 87 kinetic skeletons, 210 carbon nano armors. Some of the equipment only needs a bit of maintenance before it can be used normally." A smile appeared on Sun Jiao's face.
"This is a great harvest." Jiang Chen exclaimed.
"The best is yet to come." A proud smile appeared on Sun Jiao's face as she continued to report, "Seized assets of 1.5 million crystals, as well as a military factory, two pharmaceutical factories, and a biomass power station."
Jiang Chen took a deep breath before ecstasy appeared on his face.
Biomass power station. A ton of zombie fat could provide one thousand to two thousand watts of electricity. Thirty percent of the Sixth Street's electricity was supplied by this power station. Excluding the cost, on average, every hundred watts of electricity generated two crystals. The daily profit was between seven hundred to one thousand crystals.
"How are you going to reward me?" Seeing the excitement on Jiang Chen's face, Sun Jiao playfully winked at him.
"Is one kiss enough?" Jiang Chen smirked.
Sun Jiao rolled her eyes at Jiang Chen, pouted, put away the tablet, stretched her back, and complained.
"I'm done. I'm so tired these past few days. When are we going home?"
"We can go home in a few days. If you are tired, I can give you a massage." Jiang Chen peeked at her full breasts that were about to pop out as he joked.
Sun Jiao's face turned red, but a smirk appeared on her face.
She walked to the desk and sat on the desk in a suggestive position. With one hand on the desk, the fingers of the other hand gently supported Jiang Chen's chin as she slowly moved her face closer.
"Then I want it now," the mature woman said with a seductive voice.
"Now? Uhh, but there is no space here. "
"Isn't there a desk here? I can lie on it. " She used a seductive tone as her slender fingers slowly moved on the desk. Her eyes were full of love as she looked at Jiang Chen.
[This little vixen …]
[Office .avi?]
Jiang Chen gulped. Just as the seductive thoughts took over his mind and his hand subconsciously reached for her slightly open collar —
Knock knock.
There was a sudden knock on the door.
Like a cat, Sun Jiao nimbly jumped to the ground. Jiang Chen also quietly put his hand on the table, but his eyebrows twitched involuntarily.
It was as if nothing happened.
"Ahem, come in." Jiang Chen coughed as he said.
When he pushed the door open, he saw Cheng Weiguo's honest square face.
Seeing the serious expression on the boss's face and the dissatisfied expression on the "lady boss"'s face, he seemed to have realized something as an awkward expression appeared on his face.
"Uhh, should I leave for a moment?"
Jiang Chen saw the expression on his face and immediately felt awkward. He coughed and pretended to be serious.
"No need, if you have something important to say, just say it."
Hearing this, Cheng Weiguo's expression turned serious as he thought, [No wonder he is the boss, business is more important!]
So he immediately said, "Liuding Town sent a messenger and wants to visit you."
[Liuding Town?]
Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows.
