Chapter 380 The Existing Social Order Is About to Collapse
"So, the protection bill passed?"
Holding the phone, Fangzheng showed a weird smile.
"Yes, Mr. Fangzheng, Congress has passed the 'Cursed Son' Protection Act... But, is it really useful?"
Sheng Tianzi's tone was a little anxious and uneasy. She knew why Congress was willing to pass the bill. On the one hand, it was because the threat of the Zodiac was imminent, and on the other hand, they were confident that even if the bill passed, it would be useless. After all, the current general environment is that the "cursed son" will be discriminated against. The so-called law does not blame the public, can you still arrest everyone?
These congressmen have probably already planned that as long as the people resist fiercely, they will immediately withdraw the bill, and then use this as an excuse to weaken her power from the Holy Son of Heaven—this is not a bad thing, is it? It is also because of this that they did not resist much and finally chose to pass the bill. But in the eyes of Sheng Tianzi, this is not a victory.
"So, my request has also been passed?"
"Yes, but...Mr. Fangzheng, what does that mean...?"
The requirement that Fangzheng mentioned was a special clause in the "Cursed Son" protection bill, which specifically required Tiandao Palace to have the authority to assist in the management of the bill. This clause seems a bit strange, but because it is clearly stated in the bill that Tiandao Palace does not have the power of law enforcement, and the power of law enforcement is still on the side of the police in the Tokyo area, so although the members of the Congress are a little bit concerned about this "special assistance management" Doubtful, but approved anyway.
After all, Fangzheng also stated in the terms that those violators need to be imprisoned, and this part is naturally taken care of by Tiandao Palace.
But will anyone really catch those lawbreakers? I'm afraid that even if the police saw it, they would turn a blind eye. In this case, your Tiandao Palace does not have the authority to arrest criminals, so can you still make them surrender? What a joke!
"You'll find out soon enough."
After saying this, Fangzheng closed the phone and looked at the TV in front of him again. But at this moment, on the TV, those guests were discussing this matter with angry faces.
"Mr. Shengtianzi's approach is too much! She forced the Congress to pass the 'Cursed Son' protection bill, but what's the use? Doesn't she know the fate of going against the people? According to media surveys, Mr. Shengtianzi's support The rate has dropped by five percentage points, isn't that enough to explain the problem?"
"Those 'cursed sons' should not be protected at all! The Holy Son of Heaven is also in the 'Plundered Era', why did she introduce such a clause? Does she still intend to allow those 'cursed sons' to have voting rights?"
"Dear viewers, please see that currently on Central Avenue, thousands of people have gathered to protest against the 'Cursed Son' protection bill passed by the Holy Son of Heaven and the Congress. Everyone at the scene is very excited..."
Following the host's speech, the screen in front of him changed, and he saw thousands of people holding up slogans, marching on Central Avenue, and shouting slogans.
"Gastrus are unforgivable! Cast out the cursed son!"
In front of these indignant people, the host is also reporting with a serious face.
"Looking at it now, the 'Cursed Son' protection bill has not been recognized by the public..."
As Fang Zheng expected, the public opinion and social situation did not support the "Cursed Son" protection bill, but he didn't care, because...he already had countermeasures.
"five four three two one………"
Looking at the time on the TV screen, Fangzheng muttered softly.
"The following news will be broadcast."
Then, the screen switched again, and the host appeared on the screen. Her expression was a bit complicated, but she continued to speak bravely.
"Just now Tiandao Palace issued a notice in the official name. In order to support the 'Cursed Son' Protection Act of the Holy Son of Heaven, according to the special provisions of the protection act, Tiandao Palace will provide assistance and rewards. Anyone who understands the discrimination against the Cursed Son by others, Those who violate the protection act clues, such as abuse and assault, can submit video and audio recordings as evidence to the "Cursed Son" bill counter of the police station. Once Tiandao Palace confirms the authenticity of the evidence, those who submit clues can get rewards ranging from 10,000 to 50,000 , and the police officers who arrest criminals who violate the 'Cursed Sons' Act will receive a reward of 100,000 yuan per person each time... At the same time, Tiandao Palace announced that it will build a city dedicated to accepting Cursed Sons, Cursed Sons and The family can seek asylum at a designated location in the outskirts at…”
"how come…………"
Seeing the news on the screen, Sheng Tianzi and the other councilors were speechless. They all thought about what method Tiandao Palace would use to solve this problem. After all, even if the bill is passed, no one will implement it.
However, they did not expect that the other party would actually adopt such a method!
Money Offensive! !
In this era, most people can't make much money. Perhaps in peacetime, 50,000 yuan can only be regarded as a small fortune. But in this end times, when a bag of bean sprouts costs only 6 yuan, 10,000 to 50,000 yuan is definitely a huge sum of money! Its value is almost the same as 100,000 to 500,000 in peacetime!
Not to mention, every police officer who arrests a suspect can get a reward of 100,000 yuan! !
This is simply throwing money away! !
Where did Tiandao Palace get so much money?
Of course Fangzheng didn't have that much money, but getting money was not a problem for him. With Nimf around, hacking into the banking system and transferring funds was a breeze. And the money he's paying now all comes from the black gold accounts of those big shots and chambers of commerce. With Nimfu's methods, even if these guys search the bottom of the sky, they won't find any clues.
But now, for those congressmen, what they are worried about is not the disappearing money in their black gold accounts, but—the sky has changed! !
In this era, the life of the lower classes is very poor, and full of pressure and danger. This is also the reason why those high-ranking figures acquiesce in oppressing the Cursed Son. On the one hand, they really hate the Cursed Son. These high-ranking big shots like them can relax a little bit.
But now, Tiandao Palace's move has disrupted their calculations!
True, those people hated the "damned son," but no one would have trouble with money! As long as you provide clues, you will get money, and for the police, if you arrest a prisoner, you can get a bonus equivalent to one year's salary! What's more, it's all legal income!
It's their own congress that stamped the bill!
Before, these councilors were wondering what the so-called "special assistance" of Tiandao Palace meant, but now they finally understood, it turned out that the other party had this idea! !
And in this way, what will happen next, as long as an individual can think of it.
Even if those people are dismissive on the surface, there will definitely be impoverished people looking for evidence in private, and then selling it to Tiandao Palace. And those policemen can arrest the suspects in the name of "acting according to the law". Those who used to be able to bully the "Cursed Son" at will also have to restrain their behavior, otherwise, everyone around them would be a spy who might denounce them! !
"This is a breach of social order!!"
A member of parliament jumped up, his face livid.
"We must stop this behavior!!"
"But it's a bill passed unanimously by Congress."
Sheng Tianzi also seemed a little worried, but even so, she shook her head.
"Tiandao Palace's actions did not violate our agreement."
"But... that's right!"
Thinking of this, the congressman seemed to have thought of something suddenly, and slammed the table.
"The bill only allows Tiandao Palace to assist us and establish an office. It doesn't say that we want to build a city!"
"Yes, they want to establish a country within a country in the Tokyo area! This is impossible! We need to negotiate with Tiandao Palace immediately!"
"That's right, that's right!!"
Looking at the excited crowd, Sheng Tianzi also frowned slightly, but she was also puzzled, because Fangzheng never mentioned to herself the idea of building a city before, but now, he suddenly mentioned this, which inevitably made the girl a little strange .
"I will contact Mr. Fangzheng immediately, please wait a moment."
While speaking, Sheng Tianzi opened the contact, and then quickly connected Fang Zheng's phone. Soon, Fang Zheng's voice emerged from the microphone.
"Ah, Miss Shengtianzi, hello, since you called me, it means that you have seen the notice from Tiandao Palace? I don't know what your opinion is?"
"I have no personal opinion, Mr. Fangzheng."
As he spoke, Sheng Tianzi glanced at the surrounding congressmen.
"However, I would like to ask, about the construction of the city that shelters the 'Cursed Son'...why didn't you negotiate with us in advance?"
"Um?"
Facing Sheng Tianzi's inquiry, Fangzheng also responded with a question mark.
"Why am I telling you this?"
"Aren't you planning to build a gathering place belonging to the 'Cursed Sons' in the outlying area?"
At this moment, Sheng Tianzi and those congressmen also reacted, could it be that...
"I did mean to build a city of cursed children, but..."
Speaking of this, Fangzheng's tone was mixed with a strange smile.
"I didn't say that it would be built within the Tokyo area, so...you don't need to bother Ms. Shengtianzi and members of parliament to worry about this matter."
