Petunia felt a little uneasy, but she still sat in the position Guilliman said.

She straightened her waist for fear of leaving a bad impression on the other person.

"My Lord Guilliman, your summons is more important than all government affairs." Petunia said respectfully.

Guilliman smiled, stood up, reached out and turned off several projectors, returning the government information to his database.

Penny saw him stand up, very tall, like a mountain, with a shadow covering his thin body.

The Primarchs are the gods of war, they are responsible for killing and destruction.

Penny could feel the oppression. She couldn't imagine the terrible mental pressure those who became enemies of the original body would endure when facing the original body.

Guilliman walked to the balcony window, and Terra, which was being rebuilt, came into his eyes.

Find new life in the midst of destruction.

This is a good sign.

"You worked for Imperial Chancellor Tyrion, right?" Guilliman asked.

"Yes, sir. It's a pity that he died. This incident has hit us hard, and a lot of work has been delayed." Penny replied.

"Indeed, Tyrion's departure is a loss to the empire. He is a hero, although he has never taken up a weapon. But there are many kinds of heroes, and some people use their own way to protect mankind and the empire. Tyrion

En is this kind of person. He prevented a crisis that could tear mankind apart. Many soldiers were saved because of his foresight and kindness. I originally expected to see him in Terra, but unfortunately, my father recalled him

went."

Guilliman withdrew his gaze and looked at Petunia again, who was waiting for him to continue.

"Although the deceased makes us sad, we should focus more on the present. I have investigated your file and found that you had a very good relationship with Tyrion, and your political views are highly consistent with his. This is a good thing."

Petunia was a little uneasy, the original body spoke so well of her.

"Sir, thank you for your compliment."

"This is not a compliment, but a statement of facts." Guilliman walked to the table, "I have an important position in my hands that requires people like you. Terra has reached a point where it has to change, but many people

They don’t want it to change, for their own benefit, they want Terra to remain the same, and even the empire to remain the same.”

"But this idea is impossible to realize. The empire must change, otherwise we will be in danger. But too drastic changes will also cause resistance. They may not resist me openly, but don't underestimate them. Use various methods

They still have the courage to use a sneaky way to sabotage my plan. Bureaucracy is a very complex system, and any changes will have a chain reaction, so I need someone who is familiar with Terra's operation mode to serve as my

His right-hand man."

"This person needs to know enough about Terra, and he must have ideals and be full of passion for reform. Only in this way can he hold this position, so I chose you, Petunia. I invite you to be my assistant in the name of the Imperial Regent.

, became Reich Chancellor.”

"Is this appropriate?" Petunia became a little flustered. She was promoted too quickly. She didn't expect that she would be appointed as Prime Minister of the Empire by the original body. This was too sudden.

"There is nothing inappropriate. I need a capable and obedient reformer to sit in this position. A storm is coming, and I need someone to help me stabilize Terra so that the empire, this big ship, can reverse its direction and escape the fate of death.

"

Penny hurriedly stood up and bowed, "Thank you very much, Lord Regent, for your appreciation. However, whether this appointment needs to be decided by the High Lords Council, if you have not yet reached a consensus with them, I'm afraid it will cause some unnecessary trouble."

."

"The Council of High Lords?" Guilliman said with a hint of drama in his tone, "This is another thing I want to tell you. From now on, there will no longer be a Council of High Lords. I will promote a new

Political reforms will be carried out to strengthen Terra's control over all forces. I will announce this at the upcoming general meeting."

"The hereditary nobility of each planet will be banned, and every planet in the empire will adopt a democratic voting system, allowing those people to elect those who represent their interests. A complete set of democratic voting systems will be established from planets to galaxies to star regions.

.All interstellar trade within the empire is handled by the trading organization established by the empire. This organization will dynamically adjust prices or make subsidies so that the living standards of each planet will not differ too much. I will also ensure that each planet

can enter the minimum industrial age, allowing human productivity to be further released. In addition, the conventional forces of the empire will be divided into three systems: military, government affairs, and business. They will be separated from each other and maintain a certain degree of independence.

Responsible."

"On this basis, I will fix the position of Imperial Regent. All forces in the Empire must absolutely obey the orders of the Regent. Under the Regent, the Imperial Prime Minister is responsible for sharing government affairs. Dictatorship is very necessary. I hope you can understand. Now

Today's empire needs someone who can make decisions quickly, so that he can deal with a series of crises and make the empire run efficiently."

"For officials or businessmen in the three systems I established, the empire has extremely strict requirements on their character and talents to ensure their loyalty to the empire and fairness in their actions. The so-called free era has passed.

We have to make sure that people who are loyal and care about the people are in office. The losers have to be weeded out and sent back to the garbage heap."

Penny was stunned for a moment, her mind went blank.

What the Primarch did was no less than shattering the empire and rebuilding it again.

Such reforms are more than just a storm.

The position of Imperial Chancellor is a hot potato, and he will definitely have to step in to solve those difficult problems.

She wants to cut off people's financial paths and dig into their roots.

This hatred has been completely suppressed.

"Would this approach be possible?"

Petunia asked cautiously, she wanted to know if the original body knew what such a move meant!!

Guilliman smiled and answered straightforwardly: "Yes, it will definitely be turbulent. This system is too idealistic, and it will bring crisis if you are not careful, so I need your presence to stabilize Terra and buy time.

, allowing me to achieve it step by step. The first step is to prepare to cleanse Terra's bureaucracy. The second step is to export enough administrative personnel from the solar system and the Ultramar sector to establish an empire.

Framework. The third step is to strengthen publicity, bring us closer to the grassroots, formulate fair policies, and allow them to independently safeguard our reforms."

All systems in human history, whether they are feudal monarchy, democratic voting system, or dictatorship, are essentially systems that maintain production order and then distribute the cake.

Guilliman shattered the original system because he wanted this new system to attract enough elite talents for him.

The real elites who serve the empire should control power and wealth in the system they build.

There is no fair system in this world, only a relatively fair system.

Guilliman created a system in which the weak and the strong prevailed, which was the best for everyone.

He cannot ask those imperial heroes to serve the empire while giving nothing to others.

Any system that encourages people to make selfless contributions will not last long. It is a very vicious system that tries to enslave others.

In what position do people make selfless contributions?

Only slaves will be selfless and devoted to their slave masters.

All conflicts in society basically revolve around cake cutting.

Who gets more and who gets less has always been a very serious issue.

In the feudal dynasty, why did the peasants revolt?

The reason is that no one is willing to do the work without sharing the cake.

If he wants to maintain the survival of the human empire and protect the survival of mankind, Guilliman must face human nature - selfishness.

The term selfishness has played a disgraceful role in most of human history.

People usually use various covering behaviors and words to avoid others saying that they are a selfish person.

In fact, this is precisely where the biggest problem lies and where all contradictions originate.

Selfishness is human nature. Suppressing selfishness will accumulate resentment and eventually lead to the collapse of the system.

Selfish people are not bad people.

Those who claim to be selfless may not necessarily be good people.

Selfishness may be the biggest driving force of human beings, and it is also the most important factor that tests whether a system can last.

If a society has such a law or such unspoken rules, if you seek help from others once, you will need to pay a certain amount of money or other equivalent conditions to the person who helps you.

Who would ignore those in need of help?

In that way, everyone will have a subconscious mind, and helping others will not be harmed, but will also benefit.

If you help someone who asks for help, you don't get a reward, you waste your time, and you are forced to lose your wealth because of it, then who will meddle in other people's business?

When a society preaches such nonsense as selfless dedication without asking for anything in return, we have to be wary of people who don't want to give cakes and want to trick others into doing work.

If you pay, you will get something in return. This is the mechanism of human nature.

Loyal soldiers sacrificed their youth and took countless risks. In the end, their reputation, honor, and wealth were taken away by their superiors who did not go to the battlefield. They could not even provide for the rest of their lives. Who would be willing to do that?

A hard-working worker has worked hard all his life and has not been able to enjoy a day, but he still has not enough to eat and no clothing. Why do people still support such a system?

What Guilliman's system wants to ensure is the advancement of elites who can contribute to the goal of human survival.

People from those families may say it’s unfair, why should they have accumulated thousands of years and lose to others over decades.

Guilliman doesn't care what those guys think, and those guys can't shake the foundation of his rule.

Human beings are a social division of labor that cooperates as a whole. No individual can create such a huge wealth alone without being separated from society.

The wealth of those families can easily amount to trillions. If they can create so much wealth without the foundation of the empire, then it is naturally their ability and there is nothing wrong with it.

But they obtained wealth on the basis of the empire's cooperation and division of labor, so this wealth is not just theirs, but belongs to the whole, to every individual who cooperates in the division of labor.

Many family members think they are elites, but in fact they are worthless if they strip away that status.
