The currency used in domestic and international transactions in the Tianyi Empire is the Earth Circle Coin.
At present, there are no problems with the economy of the Tianyi Empire. This is mainly because in the areas occupied during the war, in addition to not causing trouble to the people, some work and economic-related arrangements were also carried out.
The most stable thing at the moment is that there is enough food. There is no riot among the people, and many people can get free food.
Some captives have become citizens of the Tianyi Empire, most of them (mainly as conscripts) have returned to their families, and only a small number (former regular Dion Army) continue to serve as soldiers to maintain national order and security.
The relevant departments have also begun to carry out relevant reconstruction work, and the reconstruction work is recruiting employees in the form of recruitment.
Once accepted, applicants will receive corresponding wages, which allows families that are in urgent need of financial resources to get jobs.
The soldiers of the Tianyi Empire include some former regular soldiers of Dion, and others are mercenaries of the Tianyi Mercenary Group.
The current salary packages of the soldiers of the Tianyi Empire are similar to those of the Tianyi Mercenary Corps. In terms of salary, it is definitely higher than the original salary of the Dion Army.
As for other government departments, their salaries and related subsidies will be based on those of the former Dion Empire.
Many related industries have resumed operations, providing local people with opportunities to find new jobs.
The Tianyi Empire has now shut down the neutron jammers and removed the neutron jammers buried underground.
Allow the ground on Mars to restore normal communications and networks.
On October 12, 126th year of the Universe Year, Long Fei was now in the Emperor's office reviewing reports from his subordinates.
The Tianyi Empire conducted a census, and the population is currently calculated to be around 300 million, including people from various countries who were once captured, as well as people who have now joined the Tianyi Empire.
Salamander reported to Long Fei: "Your Majesty, this is the result of our current investigation, and I have found that if we distinguish the population that was truly native to the Martian sphere, the population may be less than 150 million."
"After years of war, the population has definitely dropped dramatically. Take the population of the entire international community for example. Before the war started by Fadis, the total population was about 30 billion. Now the total population is less than 15 billion."
Salamander sneered, "Hey, this is great news for countries that want to reduce their population. Food consumption alone can be reduced a lot."
Long Fei smiled bitterly and said, "Those countries want to reduce their populations, but I need more people now. Mars is so big, but only 300 million people is too few."
"If we want to increase the population now, we should solve some current problems first. There is no problem with food stability. Now we need to guard against inflation and strengthen the economy. People should have stable jobs and extra income, and find ways to reduce the cost of raising children. If schooling can be free for 12 years, and medical care is not expensive, especially for children, if they can get low-cost or free medical care at government hospitals when they are sick, it will reduce the burden on families, and those families will be willing to have more children."
Long Fei nodded and said, "Then, we must issue an order now. Education and medical care cannot be capitalized. They must be nationalized and controlled by the state."
"Your Majesty, this is the safest method."
At this time, Li Xiucheng entered the emperor's office and reported to Long Fei, after learning about the discussion between Long Fei and Salamanda.
"Your Majesty, if it were in the past, you would have found ways to capitalize on education and medical care, and tried every possible way to make countless dollars into your pocket."
Long Fei sighed: "Alas, I am the emperor of a country now. I have to change my position and my mind. I must be responsible for my empire. I have to think about the well-being of my people. Of course, I am still the chairman of Tianyi Group. Of course, I still have to think about the development of the group. I will still make the money I should make."
Li Xiucheng and Salamander looked at each other.
Long Fei continued, "Also, since there are no outsiders here, you don't need to call me Your Majesty. Just treat me as usual."
Salamanda said: "Lao Fei, the people have enough food to eat and have a certain number of employment opportunities. The internal situation is still stable. The only unstable factor is that there are still officials from the previous administration in our government who occasionally make trouble."
"It seems we need to set up some kind of reward and punishment system, especially for those guys who are secretly disobeying us. We need to punish them severely."
Li Xiucheng said, "By the way, the prisoners in the detention center are now being arranged to return to the Martian Sphere. However, what are you going to do with this group of people from Mswati? I don't think you gave them ID cards, right?"
"Indeed not. These guys must accept punishment for their entire lives. Even if there is amnesty in the future, they will still not be pardoned as criminals."
Li Xiucheng asked: "Lao Fei, do you want to keep the class system and slavery system of the Dion Empire?"
"I will make some changes. Slavery will basically be abolished, except for the worst criminals like Mswati who will be sentenced by the court to be convicted as slaves. Convicted slaves will have to do hard labor for the rest of their lives. As slaves of the country, they will have to do hard labor for long hours every day and do hard labor for their entire lives."
Li Xiucheng made an exaggerated gesture and said, "Wow, Lao Fei, this is a heavier punishment than the death penalty."
"Killing someone and paying with one's life is a matter of course. I agree with this statement very much. I hate those human rights bitches who often say that criminals also have human rights and the death penalty should be abolished. Especially those human rights bitches who often say that even the most evil criminals should be given a very good and comfortable living environment in prison. This is to protect their human rights. I really want to spit in the face of these human rights bitches."
Li Xiucheng and Salamanda's expressions showed that they agreed with what Long Fei said.
"If the death penalty is abolished, and the most evil people are forced to work hard for more than 12 hours a day, eat terrible food, and even sleep in a terrible environment, I absolutely support such a criminal law."
Salamander snapped his fingers and said, "This kind of punishment makes the most evil people suffer every day. I absolutely support it because it is the greatest punishment for those who have committed unforgivable crimes."
"Lao Fei, your Tianyi Empire is going to abolish the death penalty, right?" Li Xiucheng asked.
"Do you think this kind of punishment is good?"
"If that's the case, I strongly support it." Li Xiucheng agreed.
Then Salamander asked, "Lao Fei, how do you plan to modify the class system, commoners, first-class citizens, and special-class citizens?"
"All ordinary people, adjusters, and new humans are civilians. Only elites or those who have made contributions to the country can obtain first-class citizens. First-class citizens can receive some additional treatment."
"How do you distinguish between the elites and those who contribute to the country?" asked Salamanda.
"Elites such as scientists, judges, etc., who have made contributions to the country, such as soldiers who have received third-class merit or above and first-class merit or below, can all be given first-class citizen status. Their benefits include free medical care and even priority when necessary."
"Then the special-class citizens are those who have made great contributions to the country. For example, soldiers who have received special merit or above (there are special merit medals and higher military merit medals) will receive the same treatment as first-class citizens. In addition, they will receive housing awards from the state and a 5,000 yuan allowance from the state every month. The buses and subways they take will all be paid for by the state. Their children will also be nurtured by the state. As long as their children perform well, all expenses will be paid by the state."
Li Xiucheng said: "This is not based on background, but on performance, which is fair."
Salamander asked, "What about the nobles?"
"Nobles must also make great contributions or merits to obtain the title of nobility. A duke can be passed down for three generations, a marquis for two generations, an earl, a viscount, and a baron for only one generation. Only special-class people can obtain the title of nobility, and first-class people may be able to obtain the title of baron."
"What are the benefits for the nobles?"
"It's basically the same as special civilians, the only difference is the allowance. The monthly allowance of a baron is 10,000, the monthly allowance of a viscount is 20,000, and the monthly allowance of an earl is 30,000. Of course, an earl has a fiefdom, and he can get 5% of the annual tax revenue from his fiefdom. The monthly allowance of a marquis is 50,000, and the annual tax revenue from his fiefdom is 10%. The monthly allowance of a duke is 100,000, and the annual tax revenue from his fiefdom is 15%."
Li Xiucheng asked: "What rights do nobles with fiefs have?"
"The dukes and marquises have certain jurisdictions over their fiefs. For example, they can mobilize some local governments to handle some matters in their fiefs, such as repairing roads or building some facilities. The dukes and marquises can order the local governments to execute them. Of course, they must report to the central government before execution. Only after obtaining the central government's consent can they handle it with full authority."
Li Xiucheng and Salamanda looked at each other. They both understood that in the Tianyi Empire founded by Long Fei, the nobles had no special rights, and even the rights of the dukes and marquises were limited.
