Chapter 211 Management Meeting.
Wang Xiaofei then introduced the specific work content of each person, including the work of each other department. With this, the entire national structure was almost complete.
At this time, Liu Yan from the Ministry of Finance suddenly spoke up: "Dean Wang Xiaofei, how can our country maintain its finances in this situation? We only have expenditures but no income. How can we collect taxes? How much tax should we collect from farmers for their crops?"
Hearing this, the most prominent and obvious ones were Dai Yutian and Bibi Dong. Both of them were emperors of the empire and understood the importance of fiscal balance.
Wang Xiaofei couldn't help but complain in his heart: What kind of people are these? They have no business acumen at all, and they actually target the people at the bottom of society.
"This is also very simple. There are a few points regarding taxation, so everyone should take note."
"First, there will be no agricultural or planting taxes going forward. How much can farmers pay for the little food they grow?"
"I don't know what forces were behind the previous fighting arenas and auction houses, but from today on, there's only one force behind them: our Douluo Federation. All industries of this nature will be nationalized."
"Regarding the property confiscated from the former Wuhun Empire, the Heaven Dou Empire, and the Star Luo Empire, it will be returned to the national treasury, with any excess distributed to the public or returned to the individuals. All real estate will be nationalized and subsequently leased out or recruited. For example, some of the shops and residences throughout the capital will be allocated to office staff, while the rest will be rented out. All rent will go to the Ministry of Finance."
"Our R&D department will develop and manufacture spirit guides and other items, which will become one of the country's most important sources of revenue."
"Also, so-called sects will be heavily taxed, based on the number of members. If they're not registered with the Federation, they'll be classified as illegal gatherings and will be dealt with severely."
...
When Wang Xiaofei finished his speech, everyone in the room was stunned. This was sheer utter chaos. Merchants would be in big trouble in the future, and few would dare to protect them. However, it would be a good thing for civilians and farmers, as their burden would be greatly reduced. Furthermore, if things continued like this, it was unlikely that any major sects would emerge.
Someone couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, what exactly is an illegal gathering?"
Wang Xiaofei rolled his eyes. "An illegal gathering is any gathering of more than 1,000 people in a single location, such as a meeting, a parade, or a spirit fighting competition. These must all be reported to the administrative authorities and approved. Otherwise, it's considered an illegal gathering."
Everyone was speechless. If this continued, there would be no major sects with more than a thousand members. Any sect with more than 1,000, or even 800, would be considered an illegal gathering. It seemed the Douluo Alliance would no longer be a major force, relying solely on this method for management. Opposition would even be minimal.
"Oh, right, there are two more things to confirm. Three more departments will be added later, but the personnel will not be fixed."
"First, the Supreme Gods Pavilion will be established. I will personally organize it. It will include all Titled Douluo and will decide the future development direction of the country and the implementation of some major plans, including legal amendments and so on."
"Secondly, we will start with the establishment of the Douluo Federation Government Conference. The conference members will include all departmental officials. Everyone can put forward some proposals, and everyone will jointly confirm whether to implement them."
"Finally, there will be a federation-wide conference. Each region will organize federal representatives to participate, specifically in counties."
"A meeting of the Gods Pavilion can be held as long as it is proposed."
"All other types of meetings only happen every five years."
Upon hearing this, everyone was speechless again. What the hell was this? They had never heard of it before.
Wang Xiaofei seemed to sense their confusion. "Rest assured, everyone who contributes to the Douluo Federation will be rewarded accordingly. Going forward, the Douluo Federation will also implement a points-based reward system for its members. The Finance Department will establish a Treasure Pavilion to house treasures acquired from across the world. All officials can redeem these treasures based on their points."
"These treasures include various elixirs, immortal herbs, even spirit bones, as well as some quotas for obtaining spirit rings."
"All of you Titled Douluos here have been busy for some time and have made contributions to the Douluo Federation. Everyone here can receive a spirit bone from me."
With this, over 300 spirit bones flew out of Wang Xiaofei's body. Of course, the oldest was only 30,000 years old; those older than 30,000 years were kept separately.
Hearing this, everyone seemed relieved. Who would want to be an official if there weren't any benefits? It was unbelievable that after only a month on the job, there were already spirit bone rewards. This benefit was previously unimaginable.
Dai Yutian and Bibi Dong were speechless. It seemed like most of the spirit bones they had brought out were from their own treasure trove, and now Wang Xiaofei was actually using them as rewards. They were truly speechless.
Yang Pojun and Niu Meng couldn't help but ask, "Director Wang Xiaofei, what exactly is this department for?"
One of them was the prison director, and the other was the deputy director of R&D. After a long while, they were both confused and unsure what to do.
"Don't be so anxious, both of you. The real work hasn't started yet."
"The prison will be responsible for the detention of all those who have violated the law and made mistakes. You will be responsible for the allocation of all criminals in the future, whether they are arranged to go to labor reform, jail, or not to go to other places for labor reform. For example, some obedient personnel can be arranged to help the Ministry of Construction. Those who work hard and make contributions can have their sentences appropriately reduced."
"Otherwise, the prison can also conduct some re-examinations of the personnel. For example, if someone reports that they have been wronged, they can be gathered together for a retrial. Severe shocks can be reported directly to me."
"Don't move the R&D department for now. I will bring Dean Yang Wudi back and start work again."
"The R&D department's focus in the future will be the production of soul guides, research on martial spirits and soul beasts, and the production of some ironware. The subsequent blacksmith association will be managed by the R&D department."
"Of course, the R&D department will also cooperate with the Ministry of Agriculture. They need to conduct some plant research to increase the output value of crops or the processing and cultivation of some plant-based soul beasts."
At this point, everyone now understands the work content of each department of the Douluo Federation Government, and also understands Wang Xiaofei's attitude towards managing the entire Douluo Federation.
