Chapter 284 The End
Max's words were like a loud bell, deafening everyone.
At this moment, the atmosphere that had been stirred up by Rawl fell into a trough again with his words.
Max was very satisfied with this.
Similarly, as a mature politician, he knew that since the problem had been fully exposed to the public today, the royal family and the prime minister's group would definitely have a clear result, otherwise the young emperor would definitely not be satisfied with the "results" they had achieved so far and would definitely continue to make things difficult.
After thinking for a while, Max bowed again to Hans Ming on the throne above him and said:
"Your Majesty, what I said comes from my heart. But as Luo Er said, if Your Majesty still decides to declare war on human civilization, I will lead all my officials and follow Your Majesty to the death."
He was very smart, and even at this time, his attitude was simply not to refute.
However, it is obvious that to achieve this goal, Hans Ming is already very satisfied.
After thinking for a long time, Hans Ming waved his hand to signal the Prime Minister to stand up, then took a deep breath and said:
“On the one hand, human civilization has many advantages, and on the other hand, it is to solve the employment problems of the high number of mining workers in our civilization.
Even if 200 billion of the 20 billion mining workers have been arranged to go to the solar system to rent and sell to human civilization, it is still a drop in the bucket compared to the total number.
If I remember correctly, the few resource planets we have now have less than 10 years of mining time left.
As this time approaches, if the resettlement issues of more and more mining workers are not resolved, we will face an unprecedented humanitarian disaster.
To this end, the Empire has decided to coordinate the available combat power of the Ministry of War to complete the maintenance of all warships, personnel equipment, firepower configuration and other aspects within three years. Is there any problem with this, Prime Minister? "
Hans Ming knew that this was a rare opportunity. Even if the Prime Minister, who had two minds, might secretly disobey his orders in the future, as long as he agreed, Hans Ming could use his identity to send relevant collaborators to handle related matters together.
At the same time, he still has a backup plan that he hasn't used yet, but there's no rush for that. Everything has to wait until the pre-war coordination work is completed.
Facing the Emperor's aggressive questioning, Prime Minister Max obviously did not want to drag on today's meeting for too long. He nodded and said, "I obey your order."
Hans Ming heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this. Finally, the old dog fulfilled his promise and stopped contradicting him.
Even if it was just a superficial promise, it was enough for him.
"The Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Justice will each send out a working group to work with the Prime Minister to complete the overall coordination work.
Instruct the Ministry of Revenue to calculate this year's surplus in advance and list the remaining star coins in the treasury. From today onwards, no department may withdraw any money from the Ministry of Revenue without my imperial signature.
Stop all major projects under construction within the empire, and stop approving expenditures for all projects except necessary livelihood issues. All expenditures must have my signature.
The Imperial Army was ordered to hold a military parade including all the Imperial warships three years later after completing the overall preparations.
That’s all, Prime Minister. What do you think?”
In the conference room, at this moment, it seemed that only Emperor Hans Ming and Prime Minister Max were left. One of them was speaking, while the other was forced to express his opinion.
As Hans Ming finished his words, the atmosphere in the conference room dropped to freezing point again.
Below, Max's cloudy eyes narrowed slightly. He did not answer the emperor's question immediately. At this moment, his brain, which had not been working efficiently for many years, started up again, analyzing the pros and cons.
It was obvious that the emperor was preparing in advance to seize power.
Judging from the current content, although the emperor's order was ostensibly a pre-war preparation, the mere operation of joint surveillance by four departments revealed the other party's eagerness to seize power.
But this is understandable, these are all predictable. After all, he had said before that even if he disagreed, he would follow the emperor's will.
Thinking of this, Max nodded helplessly. As long as this meeting ended as soon as possible, the situation couldn't get any worse.
During his 300 years in power, his control over the empire was not limited to the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Revenue.
"Your Majesty, I obey your command."
"Very good, my dear, please stand up."
Seeing this, Hans Ming's tense face finally revealed a smile. He held Max with both hands, and after he stood up, he turned his gaze to Roll who had been silent over there.
"Luo Er, your department will continue to arrange for people to conduct intelligence reconnaissance on human civilization. You will now be in charge of the Empire's intelligence department. Is there any problem?"
As the Minister of Personnel who was specially trained by Hans Ming, Roll not only had working experience in the Ministry of Personnel, but also possessed outstanding abilities in military affairs and intelligence gathering.
This so-called Imperial Intelligence Department has always been a spy organization within the royal family. Although its operational capabilities have been reduced due to the manipulation of the Prime Minister, after all, what they are facing is just a second-level initial stage civilization that has just joined the Galactic Alliance.
Compared with the various mature technical equipment purchased by their Hans civilization from the star market, such a not-so-difficult task of spying on human civilization should not be difficult.
Upon hearing this, Luo Er stood up, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I obey your command."
Hans Ming nodded and thought for a while. Today's meeting was an unexpected victory for him.
If we impose more conditions on them, it is inevitable that the prime minister's sensitive nerves will be provoked and explode again.
Forget it, many of the benefits have been achieved.
"That's it. After you return, all ministers will immediately start making relevant arrangements. I want to see your actions within three days. Otherwise, the empire has plenty of talents who can take your place.
The meeting adjourned. "
Hans Ming warned again with a serious look on his face, then stood up and walked towards the rear passage, and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.
He knew that his orders would be secretly disobeyed by the Prime Minister.
But it doesn’t matter. His words were not directed at the officials of that force. They were a warning to the senior officials of his own departments.
For 300 years, he also did not exist simply as a puppet emperor.
Although he was powerless to control the changes within the empire, as an emperor he had his own treasury and had already made corresponding arrangements.
Just as he said, the empire, or he, does have a large number of nearly mature talents of various types who can be used to replace these officials at any time.
When everyone saw this, they looked at each other, and the enthusiastic atmosphere that had been created by Rawl was no longer there.
They all had serious expressions and then dispersed.
At this point, the meeting on the empire's development direction and strategic orientation for the next ten years finally came to an end.
