“I’ve made up my mind. If you don’t have any objections, then do as I say,”said the consul.
“Of course I’ll carry out your orders!”Said Colonel Kono. He naturally had no objections to such things that were beneficial to him.
“Alright then, Go and prepare now. Tomorrow Morning, you’ll directly control the entire city district and completely implement military control!”said the consul with a big wave of his hand. Since he had decided to do this, then he had to act swiftly and decisively, he did not give the wealthy businessmen and high-ranking bureaucratic families any time to prepare.
“Yes, my Lord!”Colonel Kono saluted the consul before turning around and leaving.
“How is it? Is there anything else on your side?”The consul turned to Jiang Fei and asked.
“My Lord, this is my resignation letter. Please approve it.”Jiang Fei handed over the resignation letter that he had already prepared.
“Oh? Why?”The consul asked.
“After the military administration, I’m just a decoration. If I stay in this position, I’ll only incur the hatred of others. It’s better for me to take my own initiative and step down,”Jiang Fei said very frankly.
“This position that I’ve obtained, you’re giving it up just like that?”The consul asked.
“It’s because of my negligence in governing that caused this crisis to happen. Therefore, I should pay the price for it,”Jiang Fei said.
“Aren’t you afraid that I will take the opportunity to punish you?”asked the consul with a smile.
“My Lord, you want to punish me for my crime. I deserve it. After causing such a huge disaster, I really need someone to take responsibility for it,”said Jiang Fei.
“Do you really think so?”said the consul as he looked at Jiang Fei with interest.
“My Lord, you are doing me a favor by not pursuing this matter. If you pursue this matter, it will be my own fault,”said Jiang Fei.
“Good! Good! Good! With your attitude, I will let this matter go. However, you can forget about being an official.”With just one sentence from the magistrate, Jiang Fei was completely turned into a commoner.
“Thank you, my Lord, for Your Mercy!”Jiang Fei bowed to the magistrate.
“Since you are no longer an official, you can vacate your residence as well,”the magistrate continued. This was equivalent to asking Jiang Fei to pack up his things and leave. Although Jiang Fei had helped the magistrate so much before.., however, when the higher-ups fell out with each other, they were always so ruthless.
“Yes!”Jiang Fei bowed and left the magistrate’s residence.
Although Jiang Fei was a little surprised that the magistrate had kicked him out of the residence, losing his position was within his expectations.
“That’s good too. I have more freedom now.”Jiang Fei smiled slightly. He did not return to his home. Anyway, all his belongings were stored in the inheritance space. Therefore, he did not need the tattered clothes at home.
After losing his home, Jiang Fei immediately bought a new house for himself. This house was at the edge of the city, close to the slums. The original family had gone bankrupt and was in debt. After that, they had to face inflation, therefore, life could not go on. Therefore, Jiang Fei only used thirty lunar crystals to buy this small villa.
After buying the place to live, Jiang Fei did not run around because something big was going to happen tonight!
Originally, the family was very efficient. After taking the money, the family left. Although thirty lunar crystals was not a lot, it was enough for them to buy a small house in the slums and live for another year and a half.
Therefore, when the sky gradually darkened, Jiang Fei was the only one left in the house.
As time passed, Jiang Fei did not show any signs of sleepiness. After eating some simple food, Jiang Fei began to count down silently.
When the clock struck midnight, Jiang Fei knew that a storm was coming.
At that moment, a large number of military vehicles were driving out of the military camp in the suburbs. They formed a long line and headed straight for the city center.
From the moment they entered the city, a large number of military police quietly got out of the vehicles and took control of every street corner. As the fleet of vehicles continued to advance into the city, more and more military police got out of the vehicles and quietly took control of the entire city.
Three o’clock in the morning! Following a piercing alarm sound, Colonel Kono pulled the prelude of the Gamma Space Military Administration.
Overnight, the entire city was in an uproar. The streets and alleys were filled with armed military police officers. Even after daybreak, a large number of mecha entered the city. This made the entire gamma space tense up, no one knew what was going to happen.
The atmosphere of fear began to spread. After all, the previous rebellion of the security officers was still vivid in their minds. No one wanted to fall into the chaos of war after just experiencing an economic crisis.
Following that, the loudspeakers on the military vehicles began to broadcast an “An-min”announcement. After the civilians heard the announcement, they immediately calmed down. This was because the military had announced the implementation of a rationing system, which meant that they did not need to spend money, they would be able to receive food. Although it might not be good or full, it could at least ensure that people would not starve to death!
However, for those rich merchants and large families with money and food, the military’s declaration was no different from robbery. If the amount of moon spirit crystals and food exceeded a certain limit, they would have to confiscate it. If they hid moon spirit crystals and food, it would be a felony, which rich merchant and family would be able to accept such a clause?
However, no matter how those rich merchants and families disagreed, no matter how tough their attitude was, could they still be as tough as the cold muzzle of a gun? After Colonel Kono executed the two rich merchants on the spot as if he was killing a chicken to warn the monkeys, the rest of the people became obedient.
Even though all their wealth had been plundered, at least they were still alive. If they continued to resist, not only would they lose their money and food, they would also lose their lives!
For a time, in the central city district of the gamma space, the streets where the super-rich and families gathered were simply filled with cries and howls. Of course, those rich people who lived in villas in the suburbs also did not run away, colonel Kono also sent people to take over their wealth.
In the end, all the wealth and food would be gathered together. The huge amount made Colonel Kono’s heart tremble. This was such a huge amount of wealth, it could be said to be more than half of the entire Gamma Space’s wealth, now, it was all placed in front of him.
With the intention of getting close to the water tower, Colonel Kono directly blackmailed a large amount of moon spirit crystals into his hands in the name of drifting away.
As the saying goes, “The upper beam is not upright, but the lower beam is crooked.”Colonel Kono had already started, so would the officers at all levels not make a move? When they were confiscating the assets of those wealthy merchants, each and every one of them had also earned a large sum of money. Some people were even wantonly cruel to the women of these wealthy merchants.
Colonel Kono had turned a blind eye to this. Now that he was in power, of course, he could not be too harsh on the officers and soldiers under him.
Under Colonel Kono’s indulgence, the entire wealthy district in the city center was in a mess. These low-level officers were even more unbridled. It was unknown how many young ladies or madams from wealthy families had been killed.
