Fan Jianming smiled and said, "If you don't build such an official residence for me, I'm afraid I will be regarded as a savior by the people of the whole country, but if I live in this official residence and live in a few years, I will be regarded as a robber by the people."

The people present suddenly didn't react and looked at him in confusion.

Fan Jianming took everyone to the balcony, pointed to the villa on the left and right sides and said: "In history, these plunderers, whether they were in the East or came to Africa, regarded themselves as civilized pioneers."

"The V country two or three hundred years ago, and the West a hundred years ago, even said that it was a liberator."

"It is precisely because of this that so many traitors emerged in the countries they colonized, and even helped them to oppress their people in turn."

"However, through a period of proof, almost all people realize their true face, they are a plunderer. On other people's land, they use colonial methods 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 do you connect it with national resources and the blood and sweat of the people? Besides, we pay for all the merchants who provide construction materials and workers who participate in the construction, and the income from doing farm work or fishing in the sea is higher."

Fan Jianming smiled and said, "This is two different things. After all, I am a foreigner. Even if I have joined the nationality of N countries, the general public still regard me as a foreigner. I want to share the joys and sorrows with everyone here, and that is the well-deserved savior. If I live in that official residence, I will sooner or later be called a plunderer like the people who once lived in this group of villas."

"Do you know why there is no department of the Ministry of Finance in the new republic?"

No one figured out what was going on, and even Norma and Lea, who had attended the cabinet meeting, didn't know.

Fan Jianming explained: "At that time, your father and General Nong Lie didn't even pay attention to the position of the highest position of the federal government, but he was particularly concerned about who would be the future Chancellor?"

"If you don't be a family, you don't know how expensive it is to be a family. Only by being a family can you know the importance of the economy to a family. What's more, both of them are leaders of the country, and they know more than anyone else. How can you manage the country without money?"

Li Qianqian nodded thoughtfully and said, "So that's the case? Indeed, for a country, military power and financial power are particularly important. In fact, you can seek a balance. Isn't it enough for a country to control military power and a country to control financial power?"

Fan Jianming smiled and said, "If the highest commander of the federal government is Norma's father or Nong Lie, this method can be used to balance it. The problem is that now I am the highest commander in acting, and this problem will be serious."

Norma asked in confusion: "Is this different? I think the lady is right."

No one else understood, but only Wu Wenli understood at this time, but she did not interrupt. She didn't want to take this opportunity to seem to have a higher IQ than others, or to be more familiar with Fan Jianming than others.

Especially in front of Li Qianqian, she would not express herself so superficially.

Fan Jianming said: "No matter what the Secretary of the Finance Department is, the officials of which country will eventually take over, in the eyes of the people, the power of the Federal Ministry of Finance will eventually be in the hands of me, a foreigner."

"If I had the power of federal finance and I lived in such a luxurious official residence, what would you think of the people of both countries? In addition, people with ulterior motives would have defamed me, wouldn't I be a real plunder?"

"How good now, the federal government does not have a Ministry of Finance. When money is needed in the future, we will directly share it with the two franchised republics. All the wealth created by the federal government will be distributed to the Ministry of Finance of the franchised republic."

"In other words, the federal government itself does not have a penny. Even if I, a foreign monk, really leave one day, I will never be able to escape with the hard-earned money of the people of both countries."

"And no matter it is the S government or the N government, there is no need to worry about me corruption in the federal government. For a country and the government, only if there is no corruption, can it truly win the hearts of the people."

Wu Wenli smiled but said nothing, and the others suddenly realized.

It turns out that there is no Ministry of Finance in the federal government. It is Fan Jianming's foresight. While not losing the people's hearts because of the possibility of corruption, it also avoids possible conflicts between the governments of S and N countries.

Li Qianqian said at this time: "It's okay for you to be the supreme commander, but have you ever thought about it? If your future successor still does not have this right, how difficult will it be for the federal government to do something?"

Fan Jianming shook his head and said, "It's not difficult at all! Because the federal government has no property, no matter what it does, it must be approved by the highest officials of the two franchised republics, or even the support of the officials and people of the two governments to implement it."

"In this way, it will not only eliminate the breeding of corruption, but also allow every project to be scientifically confirmed and approved by the general public and government officials. This is the real century-old plan."

"Actually, I always feel that our federal government should not be an institution of power. It is actually like an association between countries, similar to the AU or the United Nations."

"After all, everyone is used to living in their own countries, and suddenly completely changing their past habits is probably just a moment of impulse. As some conflicts break out and conflict in the future, the Federal Republic may split again."

Norma said at this time: "I understand your good intentions. The federal government you envision now is actually the same as the chamber of commerce in the business world."

"You want to use this method to make a period of transition. As for the people of the two countries who are willing to truly merge into one in the end, or to continue to maintain this loose federal approach, it is left to the people of the two countries to choose themselves."

"Yes," said Fan Jianming: "The current Federal Republic is just the government, and even the highest officials of both countries, have this urgent desire."

"Only when the people of both countries have figured out the thoughts of them, and if they have gradually become stronger, they have broken down into pieces and are still poor and backward, they will strongly propose to implement the real Federal Republic."

Norma nodded admiringly, but said, "Since the federal government does not even have the Ministry of Finance, what are you afraid of when you live in this residence?"

"Besides, your house in Jiangcheng is so good, and your general's residence in Country S is so grand. If your official residence is too petty in our country, it is not your personal face, and it is even related to the face of our entire country. I believe that the people across the country will not agree."
