However, Ayato Kamisato had a different perspective.

"Serving the people?"

Ayato Kamisato fell into deep thought upon seeing this sentence.

He was somewhat unsure what the Coral Palace was doing.

Umijima was initially only dragged into the conflict by coercion from the shogunate, but now they have such thoughts.

"Was it that young man's idea? It actually had such a big impact on the Coral Palace?"

He didn't think there was anything wrong with it, nor did he think there was any problem with it.

After all, he also hoped that the people of Inazuma could live and work in peace and contentment.

This slogan perfectly aligns with his ideas.

"If the war ends in the future, perhaps we can keep him and invite him to work for the shogunate."

Ayato Kamisato began to think about how to poach people.

only……

He looked at the announcement, which contained no specific measures.

"Hopefully this will be action, not just a slogan..."

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

Of course, it's not just a slogan.

They were reluctant to disclose the details, fearing an overreaction from the shogunate, but that didn't mean they would do nothing.

While the shogunate was still speculating, Umijima Island had already launched a vigorous reform campaign.

For those in the administration, this reform was quite drastic, leaving them somewhat bewildered.

In many old regions, administrative departments directly parachuted in ICP leaders.

Branches were established in various departments, and some shrewd people realized that if they wanted to advance in the future, it would be very difficult to obtain party membership without joining the ICP.

only……

For a significant portion of these people, the ICP's concept of serving the people sets slightly high expectations on them.

If they have to think about the common people in everything they do, and rush to the front to protect them when something happens, then what's the point of them being officials? What's the point of them pursuing progress?

What if one pretends to enter, using this identity only as a stepping stone, and actually does whatever one pleases without considering these requirements?

The penalties are undoubtedly severe.

However, how much of it can be implemented depends on how much importance Xin Haijiangming and others attach to this matter.

ICP has only just emerged, and this system is only just beginning to be reformed and has not even been implemented yet. They are also unaware of the extent to which Jiang Ming, Xin Hai, and others are handling this matter.

If the pressure is light, then of course everyone's happy; if the pressure is heavy...

Therefore, this group of people, or rather, speculators, are still observing the situation.

They are waiting for a classic case, a classic case that can help them make a judgment.

For those who didn't have so many ulterior motives, who simply wanted to do the work but also had some aspirations for further advancement, they joined without hesitation.

Discipline may be strict, and punishments may be severe, but they are not greedy or corrupt. They simply want to do more and help more people. What does discipline have to do with them? How can they be punished?

There are also some people who simply treat working at the Coral Palace as an ordinary job, without pursuing further advancement. They are just doing their jobs to make a living. This group makes up a significant portion of the population, and their attitude is that it doesn't matter whether they join or not.

Regardless of the time or occasion, the indifferent middle-of-the-road group is often the most numerous.

However, the atmosphere inside industrial parks and factories was rather uneventful.

The reason is simple: they already have the "mutual aid group" as a preventative measure.

Although there are some differences between the two, they are largely the same in terms of personnel requirements.

For the people inside the factory, the biggest change was probably that the group was renamed and became a branch, the relevant rules and regulations became clearer and stricter, and the personnel mobility was tightened.

Although they are still free to come and go, this time the group has become a formal branch, with an additional set of formal procedures.

That's all.

For the members of the Southern Cross fleet, as outsiders, they were utterly dumbfounded.

Compared to the empty slogans in the announcement, they saw much more on Haiji Island in person.

It's not that they haven't seen people who want to fight for the people's interests... There are quite a few people like that within Liyue.

They had never seen such a way of categorizing people.

After distinguishing between the broad masses of working people and the exploiters mixed in with them, the government took a clear stance of supporting the broad masses of working people and opposing the exploiters.

This is completely different from the concept of "Liyue People" that they have traditionally encountered.

Led by Beidou, they began to consider the rationale and advantages of Haizhi Island adopting this method.

If you don't think about it, it's fine, but once you start thinking about it, you can't help but compare it to Liyue.

The people of Liyue, that's exactly what it sounds like.

Everyone in Liyue.

This includes merchants, bureaucrats, the Chiyan Army, dockworkers, farmers, and sailors like them.

When a decision is made under the banner of "the people of Liyue," are they truly the people, or just the merchants among them?

Are those merchants the same as them?

Can their interests be aligned?

More often than not, there will be conflicts.

So, this concept of "all people"...

On the Death Star, Beidou, leaning against the mast, widened his eyes slightly and suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Who has been confusing the issue all along?

Chapter 104 Dual Leadership System

While Beidou was pondering the problem, Wenchen and Anxin were still struggling to figure out how to revise the report.

Since the announcement was released, the two of them have been busy revising their assessment of Haizhi Island over the past few days.

The assessments in the reports consistently showed improvement, with each revision raising the bar higher.

From the initial turbulent situation and unstable environment, to the long-term stability, strong cohesion, strong action, and strong combat effectiveness, with the "rational faction" led by Xin Hai Jiang Ming having a clear understanding of themselves, and now, after so many revisions, they've become numb to it all.

Coral Palace is coming up with new ideas every day regarding its own reforms that they've never seen before.

For example, a few days ago, the 101st Division began to reform and establish something called the "Soldiers' Committee". According to the information they learned, the "Soldiers' Committee" was set up to achieve equality between officers and soldiers within the army.

With their limited understanding, they couldn't possibly imagine how the army's command work would be carried out if officers and soldiers were equal.

Their status as members of the Southern Cross fleet did provide them with some conveniences; when they encountered problems they didn't understand, they could communicate with the sparrows.

During the previous battle, they learned that the sparrow in front of them, who was responsible for providing them with security, was the deputy company commander of the highly effective guard company directly under the 101st Division.

From this position, you can gather a lot of information.

When they asked their questions, Sparrow immediately countered with, "What does equality between officers and soldiers have to do with the ability to command an army?"

This question stumped them.

Is there any need to contact them?

what?

Isn't it?

"But... if officers and soldiers are no longer distinguished and are treated equally, why should soldiers listen to their superiors? Think about it, if an officer orders a soldier to charge, and the soldier refuses and disobeys, what can be done?"

The sparrow looked at them with surprise.

"If there is inequality, will there be no rejection? What does peace have to do with inequality?"

"Isn't it because of their high rank that officers can command soldiers?"

"That's a division of labor in the workplace. Our equality is equality in terms of personality. In the workplace, there are leaders and superiors/subordinates for the purpose of command, operation, and division of labor and cooperation. Outside of work, we are all comrades, one family. There is no distinction of high or low status. What conflict is there?"

"..."

They vaguely understood something when they arrived here.

Haiji Island has once again broken something up.

They were unaware of this splitting process, so they didn't react.

But this kind of splitting...

Division of duties and personal integrity...

That doesn't seem to make no mistake, does it?

It doesn't seem to mean that just because someone holds a certain position, they are superior and can boss others around in various fields.

They in Liyue also opposed such behavior.

Why has their mindset remained that if there is a higher-level position, then the person holding that higher position is superior to the person holding the lower-level position in every way?

"Your thinking isn't still stuck in the old master-servant relationship, is it?"

Seeing their stunned expressions, Sparrow couldn't help but mutter a complaint.

"Logically speaking, with such a developed commercial sector in Liyue and such a widespread application of employment relations, this kind of thinking should not still exist so widely."

Although the employment relationship still falls short of the ideal equality they currently pursue, it is undoubtedly far more advanced and superior to the master-servant relationship.

How can these two people still have such outdated ideas?

The sparrow was puzzled by this.

Wen Chen and An Xin didn't say much, said goodbye, and then left thoughtfully.
