Just when Chu Hua and his party were playing an adventure game.
Cortana, who was far away in Daxia, received a lot of shocking news.
After investigation by the newly established Engineering Supervision Bureau, it was found that corruption in the country exceeded her expectations, and the redundant procedures were extremely numerous.
The so-called corruption is to steal profits from the project.
The corruption that most contractors do is to win projects at very low prices and then bribe officials to expand their business scope.
Combining the two, the profits that can be obtained are huge.
"But what exactly caused the explosion in the tower?"
In the Star Governor's office, Cortana looked at the report in front of her and thought for a long time.
Corruption within the empire was somewhat different.
Not only did the design of key facilities not cut corners, but they were even higher than the standard.
What does this mean?
From the perspective of others, they are simply doing charity.
But from Cortana's point of view, she does understand.
As the core of the Dawn Alliance, Daxia has many member states.
Even if they can open up a colonial market, the contractors can be well fed.
The premise of all this is that Daxia's certification is required. Only those who have done projects for officials will others recognize the contractor's brand value.
Therefore, it is quite normal to exceed the project standards even if the profits are posted.
"But this is no reason for people to win the bid in violation of regulations."
A line of images of contractors and officials appeared in the sky, and Cortana announced their fate with a flick of her finger.
If the construction units of the project can be selected, this is tantamount to exposing a weakness to the enemy.
Even if it is an act of corruption that benefits Daxia, the administrative center will not allow such a thing to happen!
Cortana rubbed her brows. The two days of thorough investigation had made her understand a very important truth.
The empire at its peak was far less stable than he imagined.
Although His Majesty has said a description of stability, that is only data for rulers.
Can five percent of 100 be the same as five percent of 1,000?
Daxia is no longer a power empire with only a few dozen galaxies at the beginning. The problem of expansion is only hidden because of its strength.
"The position of Star Governor is really hard to get..." Cortana sighed.
At this time, a request notification to open the office sounded, and after she agreed, a girl wearing glasses walked in.
She has medium-short hair similar to Cortana's, and doesn't look like she has anything outstanding about her. If she posted the photo on the Internet, she would probably get the comment of a local girl.
This comment is not derogatory, some people are just like this.
As for why myopia surgery is so advanced now, why she doesn’t solve the problem of myopia, I can only say personal reasons...
"Teacher, please drink some shiraz tea. You have been busy for two days." The girl came in with a teapot and cup and gave her a gentle word of comfort.
Seeing the visitor, Cortana relaxed slightly and smiled: "Xiren, I thought you had gone back."
The girl known as the attacker shook her head and poured shiraz tea for Cortana: "How could it be? The corruption project hasn't been investigated yet and you haven't left yet. How can I just leave?"
Cortana was stunned, not knowing what to say.
I wanted to say that as a Star Governor, you should strictly abide by your own time planning.
But I thought that I didn't go to get off work according to the regulations, and it was hard to say some words.
"Okay, let's leave together after Lanxi's data is sent for review."
"Well, please let me do my part~"
It has been five years since he became the Star Governor, and he has witnessed the vigorous development of the Great Xia Empire.
Although he is still very young according to the average age, it is time to start training his successor.
Xiren was chosen by her herself
candidate.
Born in the main star of Eastern Capital, he has excellent grades, is smart and capable, and has a sincere heart.
From all aspects, apart from her softened personality, Cortana is quite satisfied with Xi Ren's performance.
Even if he is not the next General Star Governor, it is not an exaggeration to at least be sent to other regions to be an ordinary Star Governor.
But before that, Xiren still needs to exercise.
The two took a short break and enjoyed the special Sherra tea.
This is a powder extracted from the Syracuse plant. After drinking it, it will have a certain therapeutic effect. A few sips of it can relieve fatigue and clear blood vessels.
Some companies even put up an advertising slogan: "No gifts during the Chinese New Year, only Shiraz tea."
Relying on its relatively good effects and high price, many companies have made a fortune from this.
"Teacher, there's something I don't understand. Our finances are so rich, why don't we just exempt most of the taxes and allow various corporate projects to expand rapidly?"
During the break, Xiren asked curiously based on what he learned.
Cortana thought for a while: "I have thought about what you said."
"I don't know if you have ever heard that taxation is a necessary price for a civilized society. If it is applied to the interstellar world, it actually also applies..."
Although the ruler has supreme power, many decisions are made by the Star Governor himself.
There is a lot to learn about how to manage a galaxy or even an administrative region in order to find a job in this position.
Not long after the two of them talked and studied, the information compiled from Lanxi's administrative department finally arrived.
Cortana and Xiren looked at each other and smiled: "Okay, now I'm going to teach you about relationship management with dependent countries. We don't teach this stuff in school~"
"Well, I will work hard!"
Return to your desk.
Cortana flipped through the key information and handed over the data review to Xiren.
But as she looked at it, Cortana frowned and stopped browsing.
"Teacher, I find it strange that there is a lot of money flowing around Lanxi..."
Following the data handed over by the attacker, Cortana's eyes flashed.
Combined with some spy information she knew, she immediately saw one thing.
Someone wants to take action on Lanxi's interstellar ***!
"Confused? Not for other people? But why is this?"
Three questions lit up in Cortana's mind.
She immediately stood up and said to the attacker: "Contact Lanxi Administration Department immediately!"
Xiren quickly understood the importance of the matter and acted quickly.
Cortana initiated an exclusive communication and prepared to warn His Majesty Chu Hua.
The organizations standing in the interstellar prison are complex.
In order to ensure independence and increase everyone's trust, in addition to controlling the military units, Daxia will not interfere too much in the administration, nor will it force other forces to abide by Daxia's rules and regulations. Everything is based on Lanxi administration, plus other empires Jointly set up departments to enforce regulations.
But after dealing with things today, Cortana understood one thing.
When power is too dispersed, someone will inevitably take the opportunity to cause chaos.
This is also the price of freedom.
