Now that the words have been spoken, whether Soshyan is an Astartes, a manager, or based on his personal character, it must be done.
He had never broken his trust with anyone in his life, not even a demon (referring to Amnak).
Not to mention the tens of billions of residents of Nessen 5.
Of course, actual actions are definitely much more difficult than words.
For example, first of all, he must have a master plan to develop economy, industry and population, and it involves the entire galaxy rather than a single planet. This cannot be thought out by his own mind. It requires many people who understand the nest. Institutions composed of people involved in economic operations, trade, culture and even science and technology come together to study and formulate.
So in the Governor's Spire on Nessin 5, he announced the establishment of the Nessun System Development Planning Committee. The committee's main task is to play an advisory role, formulate economic and industrial macro-development plans for the entire system, and provide guidance for enterprises and the Joint Chamber of Commerce. Provide guiding opinions to determine the production scale, price levels, market allocation, wage standards, working hours, etc. of each enterprise to prevent production and trade problems caused by blind competition, but it has no actual administrative power. In addition, the committee is positioned as A mortal auxiliary organization under the Astral Knights Chapter, all members have the treatment of senior servants of the Chapter.
This decision immediately shocked all the upper echelons of Nathan No. 5 present.
The economy of a hive city is usually divided into three parts. One part belongs to the "Governor" or "Imperial Official", one part belongs to private business owners and factory owners, and the other part belongs to organizations such as the Mechanicus and the Established Church. The former is mainly the airport, large-scale Transportation facilities, public service facilities, etc., in the middle are many light industries such as markets, transportation, food processing plants, etc., and the last part covers a series of industries such as energy, electronic products, church real estate, etc.
In terms of the proportion of the total economy and production, the latter two account for almost 60% of the total economy of a hive city, but their management is almost very lax. Small businessmen are generally limited by their scale. It will not have any impact, but big businessmen and factory owners often unite to form huge chambers of commerce and trade guilds, using their size and control of the economy to exert influence on the governor and officials. As for the Mechanicus Not to mention the state religion, at least the merchants will still be subject to taxes. These two organizations do not even need to pay attention to taxes. Even the governor cannot easily interfere with the internal affairs of these two organizations, let alone interfere with their affairs. industry.
Soshyan's establishment of this committee made it clear that he wanted to "control" everyone. This was really unacceptable to them who were used to "freedom".
However, they can resist anyone, but Soshiyan, as the leader of the Astartes Chapter, has nothing to do.
After all, the "reasonable" Astartes are at least not that scary. Once they are "unreasonable", there will be no place for mortals to reason.
Of course, just because they can't fight it doesn't mean they will accept it.
Even Soshyan knows this very well——
But this cannot shake his determination. If the power of the Nessen Galaxy is to be integrated, this state of chaos and disorder must be broken!
However, this does not mean that Soshyan wants to confront the entire upper class. Ten years of expeditions have sharpened Soshyan’s political mind and mentality. Fear and violence are only one of the strategies and means of rule, but they are by no means all. The dynamics of interests Balance is equally important.
So this extended to the selection of committee members. Soshyan announced that it would be composed of experts and scholars in equal proportions from each world, and then transferred a small number of sages from Ulanhudana, thus dispelling some people that he might will "favor" the concerns of a certain world. At the same time, the director of the committee is alternately served by the planetary governors of Nessen 4 and Nessun 5. Each governor serves for five years and takes the lead in formulating plans for the next five years - but this director In essence, it is a false position, because it is the individual members who formulate the plan, and as servants of the war group, they do not accept the management of the governor. This means that the essence of this supervisor is actually the person who makes the final decision and seals the plan after it is formulated.
Such an overlapping but non-subordinate organizational structure can, on the one hand, ensure that the Chapter can always have control over the overall development of the galaxy, and on the other hand, it can draw the rulers of the galaxy into the planning level, allowing them to become the leaders of a series of development plans. Indicate performers and leaders.
This is Soshyan's compromise, or respecting the administrative power of the planetary governor. He wants to tell everyone that the Astral Knights still maintain the principle that the Astartes do not directly participate in the management of planetary affairs, so as to soften the upper management to the maximum extent. Hostility to this socio-economic change and industrial structural change led by the Astartes.
And this leads to another question -
The question of belonging to the Adeptus Mechanicus in the Nessen system.
Generally speaking, after a sage leaves his forging world to serve in a certain hive city, it is equivalent to being included in the imperial bureaucracy. In a sense, it can be regarded as being separated from the original world, but in actual operation , due to various reasons, it is actually difficult for the sages to completely separate themselves from the original forging world system. This is somewhat similar to the situation of the casting generals. They are both the rulers of Mars and a member of the High Lords Council, so there is a certain In a sense, serving as a sage not only represents Omnissiah's status in the imperial administrative system, but also represents the rights and interests of a certain forging world in the hive.
The Nessen Galaxy has always been the "reservation" of Griffin IV. Even before Soshyan became an Astartes, the Nessen Galaxy only had mechanical priests from Griffin IV. For a long time after the formation of the Chapter's home planet, the planet's Mechanicus system was still dominated by the sages of Griffin IV. It was not until Soshyan introduced the power of Ulan Huda into it that the Mechanicus system was completed. Aspect replacement.
It's not that Soshiyang has any dissatisfaction with Griffin No. 4, it's just that many things are more assured and smoother without "one of his own". Soshiyang also used the same method to deal with the power of the Adeptus Mechanicus on Nathan No. 5. .
He summoned the five sages of the Adeptus Mechanicus on the planet Nessen 5 and gave them two choices, either to change their family or to pack up and leave. As the actual ruler of the Nessen galaxy, Soshyan naturally has this power. But he did not intend to break with Griffin IV, but explained his intention in a tactful way: this was to unify the consensus of the Adeptus Mechanicus in the Nessen system. He promised to explain the situation to Griffin Four's casting director.
Afterwards, he asked representatives of Ulanhuda to talk to these sages.
The situation is much better than he expected. In fact, the sages who will be sent to this place are basically people who have failed in the struggle in the forging world or have no hope of promotion. After all, the Nessen galaxy is considered a "backcountry". The world is waiting for who wants to come?
For these fallen sages, there is not such a big psychological barrier to re-entering a forging world with more opportunities and promises, and the opportunity to climb up to become a great sage.
In other words, in the Adeptus Mechanicus, it is common to change families and even become a traitor or spy.
This incident, coupled with Soshyan's experience in Angstrom, made him realize once again that the standards of loyalty within the Adeptus Mechanicus are flexible and diverse, which also made him better understand why the sages are often described as Highly self-interested guy.
