Fan Jianming smiled and said, "If you don’t build such an official residence for me, then I am afraid I will really be regarded as a savior by the people of the whole country. Treated as a predator."
The people present didn't react at all, looking at him puzzled.
Fan Jianming took everyone to the balcony, pointing to the villas on the left and right, and said: "In history, these predators, whether they were in the East or in Africa, they all regarded themselves as pioneers of civilization."
"Country V two or three hundred years ago, and the West a hundred years ago, even said that they were liberators."
"Because of this, in the countries they have colonized, so many rapes sprout up, and they even help them oppress their people in turn."
"However, after a period of proof, almost all talents have realized their true colors. They are a predator. On other people's land, colonization is used to drain the blood and sweat of the people and the resources of the country."
Norma smiled and said: "Your Excellency, don't you just build such an official residence? How can it be linked to the national resources and the blood and sweat of the people? Besides, all the businessmen who provide construction materials and the workers who participated in the construction are all paying for it. Yes, and it’s higher than their income from doing farm work or fishing in the sea."
Fan Jianming smiled and said: "These are two different things. After all, I am a foreigner. Even if I become a nationality of N country, the majority of the people still regard me as a foreigner. I want to share my joys and sorrows with everyone here. That is the salvation that deserves my name. If you live in that mansion, sooner or later you will be hailed as a predator just like the people who once lived in this group of villas."
"Do you know why there is no such department as the Ministry of Finance in the newly born ***?"
Everyone hasn't figured out what's going on, even Norma and Leah, who have participated in the cabinet meeting, have no idea.
Fan Jianming explained: "At that time, your father and General Nong Lie didn't even pay attention to the position of the highest official of the ****, but they paid special attention to who is the future minister of finance?"
"I don’t know that firewood, rice, oil, and salt are expensive when you’re not in a family position. Only when you’re a family do you know how important the economy is to a family. What's more, both of them are the *** of the country.
Everyone knows how to manage the country without money? "
Li Qianqian nodded thoughtfully, "So it is? Indeed, for a country, military power and financial power are particularly important. In fact, you can seek a balance. One country controls the military power and the other country controls the financial power. Yet?"
Fan Jianming smiled and said: "If the highest official of the **** is Norma's father or Nong Lie, then this method can be used to balance it. The problem is that now I am the acting highest official, this problem is serious. "
Norma asked puzzledly: "Is it different? I think the lady is right."
Others didn't understand. Only Wu Wenli understood at this time, but she didn't interrupt. She didn't want to take this opportunity to appear that she had a higher IQ than others, or that she knew Fan Jianming better than others.
Especially in front of Li Qianqian, she would not express herself so superficially.
Fan Jianming said: "Regardless of the minister of finance, which country's official will eventually take the post, in the eyes of the people, the power of the Federal Ministry of Finance must ultimately be in the hands of me, a foreigner."
"If I had control of the federal finances and I lived in such a luxurious mansion again, what do you think the people of the two countries would think? Coupled with the smearing of people with ulterior motives, wouldn't I be an outright predator? ?"
"How great it is now, there is no Ministry of Finance in the ****, when you need money in the future, you can directly find two franchise partners to share, and all the wealth created by the **** will also be shared with the Ministry of Finance of the franchise. in."
"In other words, the **** itself does not have a penny. Even if I, a foreign monk, really leaves one day, it is impossible to escape with the hard-earned money of the two peoples."
"Moreover, whether it is the government of S or N, there is no need to worry about my corruption in the ****. For a country to the government, no corruption can truly win the hearts of the people."
Wu Wenli smiled without saying a word, and the others suddenly realized.
It turns out that there is no Ministry of Finance in the ****. It is Fan Jianming's foresight. While not losing popular support because of the possibility of corruption, it also avoids the possible conflicts between the governments of S and N.
Li Qianqian said at this moment:
"It's okay for you to serve as the supreme officer, but have you ever thought about it. If your future successor still doesn't have this right, how difficult is it to do something if you want to do something?"
Fan Jianming shook his head and said: "It's not difficult at all! **** Because there is no property in his hands, no matter what you do, you must get the consent of the two top officials of the alliance, even the government officials and people of the two countries. Support can be implemented."
"In this way, not only can the breeding of corruption be prevented, but also every project can be scientifically confirmed and approved by the general public and government officials. This is the real centennial plan."
"In fact, I have always felt that our **** should not become an institution of power. It is actually like an association between countries, similar to the nature of the African Union or the United Nations."
"After all, everyone is accustomed to living in their respective countries. Suddenly changing the habits of the past is probably just an impulse. With the outbreak of some contradictions and conflicts in the future, the federal government may split again."
Norma said at this time: "I understand your good intentions. The **** you are envisioning now is actually the same as the chamber of commerce in the business world."
"You hope to use this method for a period of transition. In the end, the people of the two countries are willing to truly merge into one, or continue to maintain this loose federal method, it is up to the people of the two countries to choose."
"Yes," Fan Jianming said: "The current federal government is only the government, and even the highest officials of the two countries have this urgent desire."
"Only when the thinking of the people of the two countries are understood, the two become one and become stronger, and if they are reduced to zero and still poor and backward, they will strongly propose to implement a true federal ***."
Norma nodded in admiration, but said: "Since the **** doesn't even have the Ministry of Finance, what are you afraid of living in this mansion?"
"Furthermore, your house in Jiangcheng is so good, and your general mansion in Country S is also so magnificent. If in our country N, your mansion is too small, it is not your personal face, it is even related to the face of our entire country. I believe that the people all over the country will not agree."
