Blackstone Code

Every Marillo adult in the crowded streets holds a "ballot" in their hands, on which they can write down the politician they want to nominate.

After brief but efficient discussions, the final plan was formulated, with the federal government appointing approximately 45 percent of its government officials directly from the president.

The other fifty-five percent of government officials are elected by Mariroans.

The election is incredible to Marillo people, they have only seen it in the news.

Sometimes they also use elections and Congress as a joke to show off their knowledge to their friends——

"Did you hear that?"

"The federal House of Representatives started fighting again when they were voting!"

"They are so interesting, it's like a clown convention in a circus!"

In fact, not only Marillo people, but also many people will sneer at the federal so-called "free and fair system" and liken the bruised and bruised politicians in the House of Representatives to "political boxers."

But they can never understand the essence of this system!

But Marillo people will soon be able to enjoy the most ridiculous and interesting political system in the world.

When they get that ticket - and the way the federal government is explaining it right now, not everyone is going to have a ticket, and not every family is going to have a ticket.

It is only those who have a job, and a stable job, who can receive a ballot from the place where they work.

The federal government claims that this is done because only those with stable jobs will pay taxes and can provide assistance to the development and progress of society.

So their opinions are obviously more important because they really put in the effort.

For those who do not have stable jobs or even do not work, votes ranging from 100 to 10,000 will be issued according to the region and population density.

Most areas are not eligible to receive 10,000 votes, and in many cases it takes hundreds of people to turn up to vote.

Some people think this approach is unfair. After all, we are all human.

But people in the south of Marillo think this is fair. They work, start businesses, and pay taxes. They pay much more for Marillo than people in the north!

Naturally, they should also have more political power.

These people are both enthusiastic and confused at the same time, but they still have a hint of longing!

Because they will decide who can ride on their heads in the future, rather than being ridden directly.

This is like choosing a master between a horse and taming a wild horse directly. The end result is riding on a horse, but for the horse itself, the meaning is completely different!

The "sense of mission" that grows from the inside out will make them more tolerant in the next period of rule. The people of the Federation have already set an example for everyone.

After all, you are the politician you elected. Even if your scalp is numb every day, you must persevere!

"Division is always the simplest and most effective method." Lynch stood on the balcony of the hotel holding a wine glass and looked at the polling station in the square in the distance.

Even if the temperature is very low, it still can't stop people's enthusiasm.

Television was also broadcasting footage from the voting site, with many people expressing their understanding of politics.

They are so suppressed that they look so strange!

Some Marillos stood behind Lynch, as did the young president.

These people are all those who "surrendered" to the Federation before, but a few gentlemen are not among them.

Some people had accidents, such as traffic accidents, etc. Unfortunately, they were not rescued and did not see the arrival of a new era.

But the remaining people will see it on their behalf and push history forward.

The young president mused, "Will they form a confrontation?"

The people he refers to naturally refer to the south and north of Marillo. After the racial antagonism was suppressed, the north-south antagonism reappeared under the Federation, or in other words, under the promotion of Lynch.

This is actually what the federal government wants to see. A united Marillo will never be in the interest of the federation.

Even if it becomes part of the federation due to historical inertia, the federal government does not want it to be united, at least not in the next fifty years.

As for fifty years from now, the current batch of Mariroans will have died long ago and not many of them will be left.

Under the impact and brainwashing of the Federation culture, the new generation of Marillo people may forget that there once was a glorious civilization called "Marillo".

Instead, simply think that "Marillo" is the name of a region, just like Bupen.

A hundred years from now, even "Marillo" may no longer appear in people's consciousness, because everyone is a federal citizen!

Lynch shook his head, "You're not entirely right."

"Not only are they going to fight, they're going to pull us to fight with them, but it's a good step for us."

"Southerners have more votes because of their economic advantages, so there will be more politicians from the 'Southern faction' among the government officials in the next few states."

"And these politicians from the south will not take care of the northerners. They will only be more inclined to vigorously develop the southern regions that are easy to produce results."

"This will form a one-sided trend. The further south you go, the stronger the economic environment and political atmosphere will be."

"The northern forces cannot compete with the south, and they will only gradually die out in the end."

"In confrontation, we will also be more easily accepted by southerners who will dominate the Marillo region in the future."

Lynch took another sip from the wine glass, "If we rashly enter Marillo's political arena, society, and the lives of ordinary people."

"This will appear very abrupt. The 'foundation' of racial antagonism in Marillo for so many years is still there."

"A small problem may rise to the level of racial issues, but our current approach will not cause these problems."

"Southerners will consider us their best allies and a community with a shared future."

"They are more tolerant and accepting of the Federation people, and will eventually make no distinction between them."

"Sometimes politics is simple, but sometimes it requires a little bit of thinking!"

He turned slightly sideways and looked at the people behind him, "As for you, you don't need to worry about your votes."

“We are the experts in this area!”

There have been many general elections in the history of the Federation where vote fraud was suspected, but after repeated investigations, some cases were always unclear, or nothing was found after investigation.

When these people held up the ballots with their names filled in and prepared to stuff them into the ballot boxes, there were actually a pile of sealed ballot boxes filled with ballots.

These "spare" votes can come in handy when the results of the live vote count are completely different from the results we need.

At the same time, when the North-South antagonism in Marillo begins to spread, communication between the North and the South will decline. Even if someone feels something is wrong, they will only think that it is a conspiracy of the "South" or "North"!

"They betrayed us!"

The universal slogan explains everything!

"Next, we just need to wait quietly for the final result!"

The people behind Lynch all admired what he said. For Lynch, they also had deep fear in their respect.

One person, with some small tricks, can have the whole country and everyone at his fingertips.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, these plans of his are not perfect, and even have major flaws.

As long as the northerners can be persuaded to accept reality, be willing to be ruled by the federal government, and follow arrangements, then there will be no big differences between the north and the south.

Or it would be okay to persuade southerners not to overly exclude northerners and allocate part of the federal resources to the northern regions to make the north richer.

But this possibility is slim.

Because people are selfish.

The harsh environment and low education level of northerners make them generally accept death and do not know how to adapt.

Once they have identified something, it will be more difficult to change their minds. It will take a long time, but no one can change it, let alone a long time.

Southerners have begun to enjoy the dividends of the federal economic development. They themselves have not earned enough, and they are still thinking of earning more so that they can immigrate to the federation. How can they take the initiative to share part of the benefits with the northerners?

The gap between rich and poor, different ideas, cultural differences, too many things have caused tensions in peacetime.

Moreover, it is not the local government but the federal government that is strongly involved now, which makes this conflict even more tense!

However, these may be a disaster for the Marillo people, but for the federal government, it may be the best situation!

The general election lasts for a week. Lynch has to go back with his team, so he can only celebrate the New Year in Marillo this year.

He didn't go anywhere for a week, just in the hotel.

The winter here is so cold that Marillo may have adapted, but he still doesn't adapt well.

Logically speaking, there seems to be only a dozen degrees difference in temperature between Bupen, which is more than ten degrees below zero, and Marillo, which is more than thirty degrees below zero, but it is so cold here that it hurts!

He tried to go for a walk, but finally gave up in the cold wind.

This week, news about the election has been the hottest topic in Marillo South, and people's enthusiasm almost broke through the freezing weather!

In the end, the first governors of the five major states in Marillo and the mayors of more than 40 cities were elected amidst the votes cast on television.

Some of the lists will be unexpected, but others are expected. Many senior officials of the old central government are on the list.

Those who have surrendered are basically on the list.

Next, the federal government began dispatching and bidding. At this time, many places in Marillo needed to be rebuilt, and this was also a big order.

Before Lynch returned to China, he had already heard about the undercurrents in the domestic construction industry, and groups related to the construction industry began to actively bid.

The budget given by the federal government for the reconstruction/renovation of the Mariro master plan is as high as 2 billion federal soles in the first phase!

Such a big cake, everyone wants to take a bite!
