Ninja at the top of the food chain

Chapter 964 Lei Luo Gives Up Thinking

Regarding the general election, Lei Luo did not want to interfere. No matter which side Maeda Takashi and Kageyama Mori won, it was only related to the change of the country's development route, and it was not a big deal for him.

The interests of capitalists or ordinary people should naturally be fought for by these two groups. If they intervene rashly and use totalitarian power to determine the use of personnel, it is in violation of the Constitution.

Although Guanghui crazily spoke ill of Maeda Takashi, Uzumaki sometimes echoed it, but Lei Luo would not listen to wind and rain. For a top ruler, maintaining the fairness and justice of the law is very necessary.

It would be unwise to attack the republican faction because of someone else's words. Besides, no matter how bad Maeda Takashi is, the other party is not a fool after all. Lei Luo doesn't think he dares to violate such things as position principles.

In other words, as long as the principle of the position remains unchanged, Maeda Takashi and his republicans remain loyal to the Fire Nation and the country's constitution, Lei Luo will not bother to care how much money the other party has made and how many political means they have used.

In the newly born capitalist empire, the contradiction between the bourgeoisie and the people at the bottom has not yet reached the point of irreconcilability, and the dividends of war have not been exhausted, so there is no reason to panic people because of a little thing.

Although the Grand Canal project is a policy that benefits the country and the people, in Lei Luo's eyes, it is not yet at a level that allows him to intervene. The reason why he promised Yahiko that if things go wrong, he will interfere with the actions of the Republicans is because one:
Yahiko and Xiaonan are his apprentices after all. If it weren't for this, Lei Luo would not bother to pay attention to whether the canal is repaired or not, and who will benefit from these trivial matters in the end. After all, these things have not risen to the level of national stability.

Yahiko Konan left in a hurry, Naoki also left early because she was anxious to see her sister, and there were only Mitsue, Uzumaki, and Minato left in the field for a while.

"Teacher, I originally planned to take the path of the political system after I retire in the future, but looking at the situation now, I can still be my Hokage honestly."

Watching Yahiko and his wife leave, Minato came back to his senses, and sighed to Lei Luo with a wry smile. Thinking of the conversation just now, he suddenly felt a pain in his head, and felt that his IQ was not enough for the first time.

In this game of power, let alone understand the methods of all parties, if it were not for the explanation by Guanghui Meizuo, he would be confused from beginning to end, and his performance would not be as good as Yahiko.

"You are a ninja, what are you doing blindly in the political arena?"

He gave Minato an angry look, and then Lei Luo cast his eyes on Guanghui and Uzumaki, and found that the two were chatting very speculatively, so he coughed lightly and asked seemingly casually:
"Mitsue, Makoto Uzumaki, the two of you applaud Kageyama Mamoru so much and deliberately belittle Maeda Takashi, do you...do you all tend to be inclined to the democratic ideal of governing the country?"

Guanghui has always had a deep enmity with the republicans, Lei Luo knows this, and it is reasonable to discredit Takashi Maeda for this, but he is not sure about Uzumaki.

"It's not really an inclination, it's just that I don't like the behavior of those capitalists." The first to answer was Makoto, who spread his hands casually and explained the reason a little bit:
"Lei Luo, you have never been to Feng Province. You don't know what the Republicans have done without telling you. They often do business without knowing it. The country is fine. The key is the provinces. Some bad things are really repeated.”

Although Makoto Uzumaki is a high-level official in the Feng Province, unlike Yahiko, he is not a high-ranking official. He is only in charge of affairs related to Ninja Village. The right to speak is not small.

Lei Luo knows Whirlpool Cheng very well, and understands that it is not difficult to hold the power of Feng Province with the other party's methods and minds. Even though in name, senior officials should be the top leaders of the local government, but in Feng Province, it is definitely Whirlpool Cheng who said Calculate.

As for the reason why the other party did not want to be a high-ranking official, if I remember correctly, it seems to be related to some people in Congress.

"What did the republicans do without telling me?" Looking thoughtfully, Lei Luo pursed his lips, his brows furrowed slightly without knowing it, and then he saw Xuan Wucheng wringing his fingers and talking eloquently. Talked:
"Malicious acquisition of mineral resources, export of fake and inferior products at high prices, employment of child laborers under the age of ten, construction of factories in disregard of the environment, and common corruption of local officials. In short, only you dare not think about it, but they dare not do it."

"In contrast, although there are many officials and businessmen who are not so clean inside the Kageyama Shou faction, at least they are not as excessive as the Republicans, and their position is still more biased towards the people. This is why I prefer Kageyama Shou s reason."

"Without it, justice is at home."

"Really..." Lei Luo was silent for a while, his eyes swept over Makoto and Guanghui, and finally focused on Guanghui's face. Looking at his wife's expression that seemed to be normal, he asked in a deep voice:

"Root, why don't you take care of these things?"

The situations described by Wu Wocheng are obviously violations of the constitution, but from Wu Wucheng's standpoint, even if he knows about it, he shouldn't take care of it, because he is a leader of the military region and has no reason to be responsible for these aspects.

The only institutions that can take measures against senior officials are the roots.

"Can you handle it? Don't you think that the republicans are just one person and two people?" Guanghui shrugged disapprovingly, looked at Lei Luo's gloomy face, and continued casually:
"Not long after the end of the war, it is difficult to digest the integration of the new territory into our country in a short period of time. Whether it is the construction of the political system or the improvement of the law, it takes a process, and the law enforcement is the same."

"The republicans, to be precise, are capitalist alliances. This emerging interest group is huge and united. Its tentacles have penetrated into all walks of life long ago. With the network of relationships they control, the things they honestly say are important to them. It doesn't matter at all."

Recalling the disadvantages of the capitalist system in the memory of his previous life, Lei Luo faintly realized that it is the nature of capital to pursue profits, and it is also the general trend for the people of the Kingdom of Fire to look at money.

The newly integrated provinces will inevitably fall into the situation of being continuously exploited in front of powerful parliamentarians. This is a social problem that will naturally arise in the process of development. It is impossible to rely on strict prevention and defense. inhibition.

What's more, the root is more focused on the domestic and local areas. They are not only responsible for official corruption, but also responsible for combating criminals and anti-federal espionage. Even if the scale continues to expand, there are now tens of thousands of people. , still too busy.

In short, the Fire Nation is too big.

After careful consideration, Lei Luo decided...

Don't think about it.

After all, if a country wants to develop and grow stronger, it must rely on the power of capitalists. The interests of the people at the bottom will certainly be damaged, but it is really insignificant in the face of the high taxes created by capital forces.

Which is more important and which is lighter is simply a matter of knowing at a glance.

"Hey... Anyway, there are still war dividends, take your time, you should be fine if you take your time, don't be in a hurry..."

"Ninja integration is so difficult, let alone national integration. '
