my wife is a consul

"No, no, no, I don't need anything. It is better to invite Baron Smith as the chief and select members of the election supervision committee!"

When the two sides were arguing extremely fiercely, Lu Ming said seriously.

In fact, the situation is also very obvious. The Onsawa family and Apaiwang family from East Ferman, the "Freedom Army" in Inner Sea, the remnants of the Chachai family in the south-central part of Ferman, etc., all support this Phaya Lee in Antioch. play a bigger role in the new structure of power in Kuala.

Not to mention the Central Continent group.

Moreover, the troops directly controlled by Phaya Lee also include the original Phaya Guards, which is the current Guards Brigade.

As for other factions, the Bassong family is still deeply saddened by the tragic death of the leader of the family.

The power of Northern Ferman is represented by Speaker Parmawinai, but because of his short-term irrational and extreme behavior, the Northern Ferman and the Bassong family have become sworn enemies.

Moreover, its military power has just suffered setbacks and weakening.

The complete neutrality of Sifelman's Surya family, even in this short and tragic war, has been standing still, but it makes no matter which side gains power, it must seriously consider the interests of the Surya family.

The Willow family, which controls the police system, is in a similar situation.

The Imperial Bank and Western businessmen are just watching, as long as their interests are not harmed, they do not want to participate in the struggle of these natives.

Although Congressman Bakun shouted joyously, in fact, the big drug lords are powerful in military power, but if they want to meddle in the politics of the peninsula, all the families in the Ferman Peninsula will unite to resist.

Therefore, when Phaya Lee smiled, the next sentence he said was "What does Ascentra Island think about the situation on the peninsula?"

Councilor Ba Kun's expression also changed slightly.

Ascentrina Island is the largest poppy island in the inland sea, with a population of one million people living on poppies.

"Mr. Phaya, the fair supervision of the general election still depends on you!" Speaker Parmawinai said with a smile.

Lu Ming waved his hand: "I really don't have the energy. Besides, I think Baron Smith from the imperial capital will set up this supervisory committee to reflect fairness and justice."

Pamawinai was slightly startled, this guy really wanted to refuse, he didn't want to run for governor, did he?

Chen Huanxing, who had been silent all this time, said with a smile at this time: "Master Phaya likes the carefree life of a fairy, and he certainly doesn't like to take care of specific affairs. I have the most contact with Lord Phaya, and I understand this."

Lu Ming smiled and waved his hands, and said, "Your words are correct, but I have some opinions on the state's power system."

Parmawinai said with a smile: "Mr. Phaya, but it's okay to say!"

Lu Ming nodded: "Everyone knows that I am from the Principality of Montenegro. For example, in Antigua, all parties have been fighting each other at every turn. In fact, in the final analysis, there is a lack of a place to quarrel. The governor has too much power. Who will do it? It is difficult to level the bowl of water. There are too many members, and it is difficult to represent the interests of all parties. Therefore, I personally think that in Antigua, we should have a system similar to the upper house of the Principality of Montenegro. We can call it The House of Representatives, the Senate, etc. can be named whatever you want, mainly because of the roles they play. The tribes and families you represent can each have a senator. As the real authority of the state, if there are differences, everyone will quarrel. Voting, power comparison, it is very obvious at first glance, no need to use force at all, everyone can know what the result of using force for these differences is, and the winner will be known without using force!" Laughing: "I It sounds vulgar, but that's what it means!"

Everyone nodded,

Judge Chatisa, in his grief, paid no attention to these things,
Only Speaker Pamavinai frowned slightly. In this way, the most powerful side and the Bassong family would inevitably suffer.

But when he looked at Judge Chatisha, and saw Chatisha and others gnashing their teeth, he knew how he wanted to take revenge on himself.

Parmaweinai couldn't help feeling discouraged.

Over there, I heard Phaya Lee continue: "The Senate is mainly to resolve major affairs in this state, most of which are peninsula affairs. Therefore, whether it is the Free Traders Alliance in the Inland Sea or Congressman Bakun, there is no need to enter. There are also Middle-earths, Griffinians, etc., who are not the majority ethnic group, and do not need to enter the Senate." Pause, and look around, "Look now, six senators, Speaker Parmawinai, Chattisa The judge, Mr. Khunpa, Mr. Sujino, Mr. Longla and Director Willow can each nominate one person, of course, it seems that it is better for you to directly serve!"

This represents the six most powerful tribal groups in the peninsula.

The Fermans in the north, the Bassoon family in the south, the Onshawa and Apaiwang families in the east, the Surya family in the west, and the Willow family in the center.

When Speaker Parmawinai heard that the size of the Senate was so small, and that all external forces were blocked, no one from Central China would have a seat. He felt relieved. It seemed that this proposal was not bad. A governor is more conducive to stability, and there is no need for every ten years of general elections. On the Fairman Peninsula, conflicts will almost always erupt, and all parties will flex their muscles and compete for status.

"I propose that Mr. Phaya, as the permanent president of the Senate, coordinate the affairs of the Senate." Senator Sujino said with a smile.

Lu Ming immediately waved his hand: "I think the chairman of the Senate should be held by each senator in rotation, once a year, so that the balance of power can be maintained to the greatest extent."

Director Willow said: "Master Phaya's proposal may really solve the chronic diseases of our peninsula for hundreds of years. I also agree with Master Phaya as the permanent chairman of the Senate. Bring fresh vitality to the development of the peninsula!"

The Willow family undoubtedly benefited the most. Its family was originally the weakest, but now it can gain an equal position with other families in the most important power center.

It's not just the Willow family. In fact, all four families except the North Fehrman Group and the Bassoon family have benefited.

The four families took out one alone, which was originally inferior to the Northern Ferman Group and the Bassong Family, but now they have the same right to speak.

Therefore, except for the silence of Speaker Parmawinai, Judge Chatisa was in a state of grief and anger for a long time.

The other four families are all persuading Lu Ming to be the permanent chairman of the Senate.

But Lu Ming's refusal was obviously not for show. In the end, everyone had no choice but to insist that Lu Ming be the "permanent first senator". This "first senator" will be served by the Phaya family from generation to generation.

Even Parmaweine felt that it was too unreasonable for him not to speak, so he persuaded him a few words.

After all, this Phaya Lee represents the remnants of Chachai and the interests of the Central Continent, and even seems to have the support of the Inner Sea forces.

It is obvious that Phaya Lee played a big role in the battle that changed the direction of the entire peninsula.

What's more, if I want to say that I have to thank this Phaya Lee, otherwise, the foundation of my Northern Ferman Group may be trampled down by the Southern Allied Forces organized by Mayor Basong.

Although everyone is concerned about their own interests, the parties who participated in the war later did not want to see a situation where one family dominates.

After everyone's persuasion, Lu Ming reluctantly agreed to be the "permanent first senator".

Councilor Ba Kun's face became more and more ugly.

Seeing that the matter came to an end, Chen Huanxing said in the sidelines: "This war has also dealt a heavy blow to Fairman's economy. Many investors have lost confidence and even fled to other places. From an economic point of view, I think we should launch a A major move to boost the local economy and restore investor confidence!"

Lu Ming smiled and said, "Tell me about it?"

"How about turning Fairman City into a free trade port? Exemption of state taxes on all foreign goods!" Chen Huanxing's words were shocking, and he explained: "We don't have any industry at all in our locality. The implementation of trade protection just makes the people The burden is increased, and the factories of inefficient officials, large and small, are protected. In fact, Antigua can completely abandon the industrial development route and take the tertiary industry..."

Chen Huanxing explained what the tertiary industry is, eloquently.

Lu Ming picked up the teacup to drink water. In fact, in his previous life, this was the proper comprador route. Moreover, from the perspective of the Mitai people, Chen Huanxing was a super foreign comprador.

But for Antigua, it may not be a path. After all, it is not an independent country, and it may not be impossible to see its own advantages.

Chen Huanxing even proposed large-scale training of Mitai servants to work in other states and provinces.

But in fact, no matter what route, according to the current political and economic model of Antigua, it is very difficult to develop. Chen Huanxing's priority is also the interests of the Central Continent.

……

On September 25, all parties in Antigua issued a joint statement.

The main content is that the state has formed the highest authority - the Senate.

The governor and most of the powers of the former legislature are now exercised by the senate.

The Senate will appoint officials at all levels to the State Executive Office, which is the state's executive agency.

The new mayor of Fairman will also be appointed by the Senate.

The state's general election next month will mainly elect members of the House of Representatives.

Baron Smith from the imperial capital will organize a supervisory committee to supervise the entire election process.

Felman City is planned as a free trade port.

and many more.

……

On the afternoon of the 25th, Lu Ming received a call from Schmidt, the representative director of "Punk Trade".

Fairman City will become a free trade port, so it is obvious that Emerald Isle will become an abandoned island. The 1 million yuan investment of "Punk Trade" is completely in vain, let alone the attempt to take the opportunity to contact Baron Smith rise.

In fact, Lu Ming has already transferred the 1 million yuan to the special work department of the Western Regions, which is used to support the local friendly city-states as a special fund to counter the expansion of the city-state alliance supported by "Punk Trade" in the Western Regions.

Under Schmidt's fierce criticism, Lu Ming just said helplessly: "I didn't expect that either, Mr. Schmidt."

Schmidt seemed to calm down suddenly, "You will pay the price! The punk trade is not something you can mock at will."

"I'm really sorry, I really didn't expect..." Before Lu Ming finished speaking, "beep beep beep", the phone had already been hung up.
