Thinking of this, Fang Ze's head turned rapidly and he felt that this was indeed a good idea.
After all, no matter how powerful Fang Ze is, he can't manage such a large eastern jurisdiction alone. He always needs some helpers.
At the regional meeting a week ago, Fang Ze also discovered the attitude of the senior officials of these regions towards him: they did not oppose but did not support either.
They knew they couldn't fight Fang Ze, but they also knew that Fang Ze needed them if he wanted to manage the eastern jurisdiction well. Therefore, under the instruction of the federal high-level officials, although they accepted Fang Ze, the uncrowned king of the East District, they did not care much:
If Fang Ze didn't give orders, they would do their own thing. But if Fang Ze gave orders... they would listen and do them, but they were just doing errands and not taking them seriously. This can be seen from the fact that Fang Ze was in seclusion for a week and these people didn't even ask for instructions.
So after discovering this situation, Fang Ze actually had a headache. Because in this way, although he is the uncrowned king of the eastern region, he still has more of a symbolic meaning. It is simply impossible to understand the government orders.
But now when he discovered that these old foxes were not without desires and had their own little thoughts, Fang Ze suddenly felt that this was a good breakthrough.
If he can take advantage of this breakthrough, then maybe he will no longer be alone in the Eastern Jurisdiction. Moreover, once this breakthrough can be effective in the Eastern Jurisdiction Region, when he arrives at the federal center, he will soon be able to obtain a large number of mid-level and high-level forces, allowing him to truly have rights commensurate with his strength and position.
This will be a great help to Fang Ze's path to true god, or to the second best path to becoming a venerable person.
But... Fang Ze also knows that these people are old foxes and are difficult to deal with. So I can't be too direct, but I have to play hard to get and survive them...
Thinking like this, Fang Ze suddenly had concerns in his heart.
So he smiled and patted Hei Niu on the shoulder, then looked at the senior executives who were still looking at him with bright eyes, and said, "Members of the council are so anxious to see me, I believe it is urgent."
"But I'm really sorry. I felt something in my heart two days ago. I just broke through the ultimate realm, and I can't take care of official business for the time being."
"So you can go back first and make your own decisions about various departments and states. If you really want to ask me for advice, you can come back later."
Speaking of this, Fang Ze looked at Hei Shark again, and then said, "As for Minister Hei, Hei Niu said just now that you have been waiting for several days and I believe the matter is urgent, so come here first and report the situation to me. "
Having said this, Fang Ze glanced at everyone present, then turned and walked towards his room.
Fang Ze's attitude was clearly expressed in a few simple conversations:
1. You guessed it right, I have indeed been promoted to Juedian. And he also has a special promotion method in his hand.
2. I see your psychology, Xiao Jiujiu, and know that you don’t really have official business, so I don’t bother to receive you. If you have work to handle, don't you just go ahead and handle it yourself? Don't use this reason to pry for information.
3. If you have thought it through and really want to get closer to me or have real official business, then I am also willing to chat with you. After all, I am now the Acting Speaker and your boss.
The people present were all human beings, so they understood the hidden meaning of Fang Ze's words just by changing their minds.
For a moment, they couldn't help but hesitate.
To be honest, the people present were all prominent figures in the area, and most of them were from Fang Ze's father's generation, or even his grandfather's generation. Even those in the middle and young generation are more than ten years older than Fang Ze.
When Fang Ze became their boss at such a young age, they felt jealous and dissatisfied. But because of Fang Ze's strength and the double suppression of the Federation Center, they could only keep these thoughts in their hearts. But what they showed was also lack of cooperation, support or opposition.
When they came to see Fang Ze this time, they came with a sense of curiosity and exploration. They did not expect that they would face an important decision here.
So for a while, these congressmen could not help but frown slightly and began to think about how they should choose.
Gradually, some members smiled and nodded towards Fang Ze, then turned and left. Most of these members who gave up this opportunity were middle-aged and middle-aged members in their prime. They don't have that much desire for the ultimate realm, and they don't want to choose to join Fang Ze just because of a simple breakthrough opportunity.
But...more legislators are older. They have been trapped in the Ascension Stage for a very long time. Some even reached the Ascension Stage during the establishment of the Federation. Fifty or sixty years later, they still have not met the requirements for promotion to the Ultimate Level. So when there is someone who may help them advance to the Ultimate Level. The opportunity is in front of them, and they really can't wait.
So...soon, the first Congressman who couldn't hold himself back appeared.
He was an old congressman with a wrinkled face and gray hair who looked very old. He took a step forward and called Fang Ze, "President Fang."
The veteran congressman's statement was extremely respectful, and was completely different from his expressionless response to Fang Ze's question in the conference room a week ago.
When he heard the old congressman's call, Fang Ze couldn't help but stop, then turned around and looked over.
Seeing the old councilor, Fang Ze pretended to think for a moment, and then suddenly said, "Oh. Councilor Chen? I remember that you are the councilor responsible for urban planning and rating of the entire jurisdiction, right?"
Seeing the old congressman nodding, Fang Ze pretended to be curious and asked, "What's wrong? Do you have any work to report to me?"
Having said this, Fang Ze waved his hand and said comfortingly, "You are a senior and have seniority. If it's just a small matter, just make your own decision. You don't need to report to me, I can trust you."
Councilor Chen is indeed an old fox. Hearing Fang Ze's polite yet teasing words, he did not blush at all. He smiled heartily and said, "How can this be done? Speaker Fang is young and promising. He has become the leader of the Eastern Region at such a young age. I have long wanted to learn from you, but I have never had the chance."
"Now I finally have a chance, so of course I have to listen to your guidance."
Although what Mr. Chen said was all official and cliche, the meaning of approaching and showing goodwill was extremely obvious.
So when he heard what he said, Fang Ze did not continue to beat him, but looked at the others with a half-smile, then nodded and said, "Okay, since Mr. Chen is interested, then after Minister Black Shark finishes, I will also talk to him You talk."
Seeing Fang Ze relent, Councilor Chen suddenly showed a surprised expression on his face.
But at this time, seeing that Mr. Chen successfully got the opportunity to talk to Fang Ze in private, other congressmen who were still hesitating finally couldn't sit still anymore and started to express their goodwill to Fang Ze.
As a result, the corridor became noisy again for a while, all of them were voices getting close to Fang Ze and wanting to chat with Fang Ze alone.
Fang Ze originally intended to select a few reliable helpers from this group of congressmen, so he accepted all who came and made appointments with them all.
So...it was already late at night, but everyone present seemed to have forgotten the time and was ready to stay up until dawn...
........
Five minutes later, in the reception room of Fang Ze's room.
Fang Ze and Black Shark sat opposite each other.
Fang Ze still attached great importance to He Weidao's right-hand man, who was also the head of the Secret Service Department of the entire Eastern Jurisdiction Region.
After all, the main responsibilities of the Special Service Department are war investigation and counterintelligence. It has the power to supervise external wars and investigate internally. It is considered the core violence department of the Federation. The person in charge of each region must also be the most trusted by several elders of the Federation. people.
That is to say, the power of the nobles in the eastern jurisdiction is too strong, and there are relatively few foreign wars, so Black Shark has little reputation. If placed in other regions, he would definitely be among the top three powerful figures in the region based on his position.
After recalling the responsibilities and powers of the Secret Service Department, Fang Ze couldn't help but look at Hei Shark, and then asked, "Minister Hei has been looking for me these days. Is there something wrong?"
As the head of the Secret Service Department, Black Shark will 100% be promoted to Juepin in the future as long as he makes no major mistakes. Therefore, the two people who knew this made a tacit understanding not to mention the matter of wooing each other, but simply talked about business matters.
After hearing what Fang Ze said, Black Shark also took out a document, handed it to Fang Ze, and said, "Yes. Chairman Fang. This is an invitation sent by the federal center four days ago. You need to personally Reply."
After hearing Black Shark's words, Fang Ze also reached out and took the document and read it carefully.
The document is truly an invitation. The content is to invite Fang Ze to the Federal Parliament and the Pole Star Base to visit and study, and the Federation's Grand Speaker and several elders will also chat and communicate with Fang Ze.
After seeing this invitation, Fang Ze's brain was racing to guess the purpose of the federal center.
First of all, he eliminated the old drama of the Hongmen Banquet and the drinking of wine to release military power. After all, he doesn't have any territory or power worthy of the federation's concern, and he himself is a humanoid self-propelled aircraft carrier. If the federation's top brass let him enter the central state, the federation's top brass should be afraid, not him.
Secondly he ruled out mere overtures. After all, the Federation's various measures during this period have already proven their support for Fang Ze. What the two parties need to do next should be continued cooperation to build trust, rather than calling themselves over to show goodwill in person.
After excluding these two most common possibilities, there are not many options left.
'Show me your strength and latest technology? "
"Let me see the real situation of the human race now?'
'Or do you want to communicate with me face to face about the future direction of the human race? '
After thinking about it, Fang Ze felt that only these three possibilities were the most likely.
After all...those elders wouldn't really ask me to study, right?
With this in mind, Fang Ze looked at Black Shark, and then said, "I've read the documents. You can reply to the center and I accept the invitation."
Speaking of this, Fang Ze glanced at the date and said, "The time will be tentatively set in 10 days, right?"
Hearing Fang Ze's words, Black Shark nodded and said, "Okay, I will go and reply to the federal center now."
Because they belong to different factions, after chatting about business matters, the two of them had nothing else to talk about. So Black Shark saw this and took the initiative to leave Fang Ze's room.
After leaving the room, what caught Black Shark's eyes were the dozen remaining members of Congress who were still waiting in the corridor.
They stood in the darkness, whispering to each other, but when they saw the black shark, they spontaneously stopped communicating, and then looked at the black shark with dark eyes.
Black Shark passed by them expressionlessly and headed towards the end of the corridor.
Although there was no communication between the two parties, Black Shark and these congressmen knew that from the moment these congressmen chose to stay, the two sides were no longer in the same camp.
Walking to the end of the corridor and turning the corner, Black Shark slowly stopped under the light. He turned around and looked at the dozen or so congressmen again through the reflection of the glass, feeling an inexplicable sense of crisis in his heart.
Obviously a few days ago, when Fang Ze became the speaker, no one responded at all. Although he was aloof at the meeting, he was just a solitary person. As a result, within a few days, he had already opened up the situation and attracted a quarter of the MPs to lean towards him.
So given time, will the entire eastern jurisdiction really not only know Fang Ze but not the Federation?
At that time, what is the difference between that and the real border closure and secession of the country?
Thinking of this, Black Shark couldn't help but think of the dead He Weidao...
He looked up at the lights in the corridor, his eyes filled with confusion.
'Old He. You have suppressed the nobles for so many years and single-handedly returned all the rights of the entire eastern jurisdiction to the hands of the federation. But in the end, why did he take the initiative to hand over the entire eastern jurisdiction to Fang Ze? '
'Just because he can fight?' '
'Can you really trust him? '
As a special talent, Black Shark's success today relies on his loyalty to the Federation, strong strength and excellent professional skills.
So when he found that he could not understand the changes in the entire political situation and the decisions of his old friends, he could only sigh slightly, and slowly left the parliament building with a feeling of loneliness and discomfort with the changes of the times... ..
.......
Although Black Shark doesn't understand politics, as the commander of the Secret Service Department, he understands people's hearts. So in the next few days, things turned out exactly as he expected.
After Fang Ze met with the dozen or so congressmen one by one, the situation in the entire eastern jurisdiction quickly changed a lot:
Some of Fang Ze's orders began to be implemented in the eastern region and states. The direct descendants of the Si and Bai families began to gradually enter the management of the region and states, and some middle-level people who were close to Fang Ze also began to gradually move into the management of the region. The core stage of the district.
The chain reaction of this was that some members who had no inclination originally, and some members who were originally members of the aristocratic faction but were now helpless due to the death of the demigod, all turned to Fang Ze.
As a result, Fang Ze's prestige in the eastern jurisdiction greatly increased. Cooperating with him alone, he can suppress the strength of the first region, so he immediately transformed from a "mascot" with no strength but no power, and became the real king of the eastern jurisdiction...
In this way, time passed day by day, and soon it was the day when Fang Ze was going to the federal hub state.
And on this night.
In the investigation room late at night.
Fang Ze and Mr. Chen sat opposite each other. Fang Ze looked at Mr. Chen in front of him, and then asked slowly, "Mr. Chen, are you ready?"
