Starting from the Planetary Governor-Chapter 535 - 316, I’m Going to Die

The Rage Bear Legion goes without saying, they fight according to the orders of the Military Affairs Department and the Star Domain Military Headquarters, and Gu Hang won’t fuss over the details with them.

But the supply of the Rage Bear Legion was delivered by Rage Owl Star, which is not provided by the Imperial Military Department. Don’t think ammunition is cheap, especially the shells for heavy artillery, ammunition for bomb guns, replacement parts for technical equipment… These are all expensive.

Moreover, the newly brought in five garrison divisions and one armored composite brigade are not from the Rage Bear Legion but from the Rage Owl Star’s Planetary Defense Army, they surely won’t fight for free.

The construction cost for these forty thousand troops has already reached one million Tax Currency.

The alliance also transported a large amount of food and freshwater.

This wave of investment by Gu Hang has already reached nearly two million Tax Currency in total cost.

In this situation, Gu Hang, on Korolya III, signed an evacuation agreement for the refugees with the government on the other side.

In the future, the alliance will still further dispatch troops, provide ammunition, military weapons and equipment, food, freshwater, textiles...

The total aid is estimated to reach the scale of seven million Tax Currency.

This amount of money is substantial, but the alliance can afford it.

A considerable part of it is direct military participation in the war offsetting wealth; aid in various forms of ammunition, technical equipment, is also replenishment for the alliance’s troops on the frontlines, not given to the Korolya people but counted in this seven million support.

The only thing really handed over to the Korolya people are some light weapons.

This is normal; the alliance’s military factories also need orders. The various types of heavy weapons are eagerly awaited by the alliance’s own troops and they have no spare to give to the Korolya people; but some G-series rifles and such, have plenty of excess production capacity.

The same is true for ammunition; war on the homeland of Rage Owl Star has largely quieted down, ammunition consumption immediately decreased, and the surplus must be "sold" off, right?

Freshwater and food follow the same logic. Rage Owl Star still has a relatively abundant freshwater resource, with extensive oceans suitable for desalination.

As for food, the Green Valley Region had a bumper harvest last year, and the Rage Owl Star people couldn’t even consume it all; it would just be left to age if not exported.

Moreover, a substantial part of these resources will be provided to refugee camps. And the people living in the refugee camps... in the future, they will all be people of the alliance!

And the seven million Tax Currency "aid" in exchange, is that the alliance will "help" Korolya III evacuate ten million refugees.

Among all forces plundering the population of Korolya III, this agreement is considered to be quite ruthless.

The reason for such ruthlessness is the result of Gu Hang’s efforts.

This is the role of "reputation," starting to slowly show its effectiveness.

Of course, there’s also the political influence of the Gu Family.

In fact, not only did he earn, but the Gu Commercial Firm did as well. A significant portion of the transportation orders, not only from Rage Owl Star but also from other major forces. Whether transferring materials or personnel, a substantial number of ships are needed. The Gu Commercial Firm got pretty fat just from these transportation orders.

As for the population transferred from Korolya III, Rage Owl Star is very welcoming; the quality of the population is actually not bad.

In stark contrast, the population from Heijian Star is very troublesome.

Heijian Star has also migrated hundreds of thousands of people, all from the Luman Kingdom. They are truly illiterate, the vast majority come from serf backgrounds, can’t read, don’t hold any skills needed in an industrial society, and the cost of intermediate training is substantial.

Compared to the Rage Owl Star People, although there’s a considerable percentage of illiteracy, it’s nowhere near as high as the illiteracy rate of the Heijian Star People.

Even among the illiterate, there are disparities.

There’s a reason for that; Rage Owl Star is a wasteland planet, its residents may not be literate, but they must have some skills. He may know how to drive, repair cars, assemble and use firearms, tinker with some junk machinery...

Without these skills, one couldn’t survive in the wastelands.

Quite a few wastelanders, under the system established by the alliance, entered schools and learned enough characters during adult education, even just a few hundred or a thousand, to read and understand written articles, and communicate in writing, which is enough to become a qualified industrial population.

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.

The population from Korolya III has similar attributes. Many of them mingled in the underbelly of Nest Capital, living worse than livestock, but their literacy rates are stronger than those of the wastelanders, with many having experience working in factories and mines – work is necessary to survive.

Even in Nest Capital, there is still the most basic education, where children around five or six years old go to school for a couple of years before they can work as child laborers.

The difference in population quality means that the value that different immigrants can immediately bring to the table varies greatly.

However, overall, at this stage, Rage Owl Star is welcoming all comers.

Even if they come from Heijian Star and need some time to be cultivated for modernization before being sent to work as farm laborers in the Green Valley Region, that’s fine too.

A qualified labor force, given normal opportunities and a platform, can create far more value than it consumes, there must be surplus labor value.

What’s more, the efficient system of the alliance, which eliminates the middle layer, requires no taxation, yet surpasses it, is much stronger in collecting surplus value than the conventional private property system.
