With the confessions of these four people, all the truth came out.
The truth is not the result that Iger demands. What Iger pursues is justice.
What is justice?
Justice is that Iger knew that Bill was a fast shooter, and then arranged for these witnesses to duel with Bill.
As for what the truth is, Iger doesn't care.
Does it matter who makes the first move?
It's not like children fighting.
Egger is willing to sacrifice the lives of four witnesses to demonstrate the impartiality of the gospel team.
Unexpectedly, he gave up without even one of these people dying. Before, Iger thought that at least one or two people would have to die before the other party would be convinced.
It turns out that Bill was really wronged.
Now the Gospel Tribunal has reopened, and this time a professional lawyer is taking the stage.
This professional litigator had no idea that he would ever return to his old profession, and he cherished this opportunity very much.
That said, it all depends on whether you will do light work or move bricks every day in the future.
As soon as the prosecutor took office, he immediately charged four witnesses with two felonies of perjury and organized premeditated murder.
This kind of witness suddenly became a plot point for the prisoner. In the past, everyone had only seen it when Phoenix was in court, and no one expected that they would be able to eat it today.
Drama is what everyone likes to hear and see. People in the audience don't care about the truth, let alone fairness and justice. They just want to know whether this melon is sweet or not.
Since the prisoner had confessed and confessed in detail, the prosecutor did not have much room for improvement. Subsequently, the jury of the gospel team voted that Bill was not guilty of self-defense, and the four people were found guilty of perjury.
Subsequently, Judge Andy banged the gavel and announced that the four people would be sentenced on another day.
The so-called setting of a day to pronounce judgment depends on what price the other party is willing to pay. After all, they are four strong laborers.
Andy would definitely not shoot people indiscriminately. The gospel team followed Iger's suggestion and added bonded workers and reform-through-labor personnel to its members.
Egger has already told you here that these two types of people are different from slaves.
The source of slaves is usually innocent people who have been coerced by force, but these two types of people are subjective and voluntary.
The status of bonded workers is higher than that of reform-through-labor workers. They use their labor to pay off their debts. If they are particularly outstanding, they may be able to receive additional awards and pay off their debts in advance. After paying off their debts, if they are willing to join the gospel team, they can officially join the evangelical team after passing the assessment.
join in.
Reform-through-labor officers use labor to atone for their sins, and their guilt is more of a problem than their debts.
Of course, the gospel team cannot deliberately mistreat them. After all, people are precious resources, and they are one of the effective assets of the gospel team.
Besides, prisoners’ participation in labor reform is absolutely voluntary. No matter how powerful the evangelical team is, they cannot force those who are unwilling to work to do so.
It is said that forced labor is not sweet, and the efficiency of forced labor is actually very low. The prisoners are either thinking about being lazy or escaping all day long, and a lot of manpower is needed to maintain order.
Therefore, the prisoner can decide by himself what high-value items should be used to compensate for the crime.
To put it bluntly, in this world, money is still the boss, and it makes perfect sense to buy life with money.
If you don't have money, you have to accept the punishment and go to work obediently.
If you don’t have money and don’t want to work, well, this idea is very dangerous.
In this trial, the gospel team won a great victory. In addition to winning face and applause, Bill also stole the show.
Taboo topics tend to attract more people's attention.
In this world, "talent" is an extremely taboo topic.
Today, through the public trial of this big melon, everyone feels that this taboo topic of talent should be discussed openly at the moment. Because talent is a hidden card, if others know in advance that you have this hidden killer card, they will
Reassess your strengths.
To put it simply, there will no longer be situations where someone pulls out a gun and threatens Bill.
Egger keenly discovered this issue that people were talking about, and he felt that with proper publicity, deterrence can be transformed into strength.
Of course, this matter is a double-edged sword for Bill. While it can greatly increase his popularity, it will also bring him certain dangers.
After serious discussions with Bill, Iger sought Bill's opinion, and he and Andy discussed how to use this incident for publicity.
When it comes to packaging and publicity, this is Andy's specialty. Under his guidance, Avella drafted and carefully compiled today's case into a story. Because the story was too long, it was specially divided into two parts.
broadcast.
Tomorrow morning, Lily will broadcast the large-scale documentary story "Bill's Innocence", and the day after tomorrow will talk about "Iger's Innocence".
Although this incident is simple, it is wonderfully written in Elvira's writing.
The intricate relationships between characters, the flesh-and-blood love between brothers, and the conflicts in personality have become the best selling points. This kind of bloody plot with gossip is an extremely good theme no matter what era it is in.
As expected, the effects of these two programs were so good that they exploded.
…
Iger did not want to gain Bill’s reputation, nor did he want to become famous himself. He actually wanted to use this story to instill the core concept into the minds of the audience: the gospel team is the most powerful defender of order.
This incident was an unexpected incident, whether it was premeditated or not, but it came earlier than Iger expected. Originally, he thought it would be stable until the autumn grain harvest. After all, a large amount of grain needed to be harvested at that time.
, someone will come to fight against the autumn wind (try their best to ask for property).
But this incident has sounded a wake-up call to Ige. The Puduo County now is no longer the Puduo County it used to be.
Although the space and resources here are enough for all survivors to survive, human nature is inert, greedy, envy, jealousy and hatred.
You occupy a small town with water and electricity, but we can only hide in a dilapidated house and eat mush. In the eyes of some people, this is called "oppression."
Although Iger is very reluctant to face such a situation, things often change beyond his control. The main enemy of Jixi Town will gradually transform from the former infected to survivors.
In other words, if Puduo County is considered as a whole, the current threat to its survival comes from internal conflicts.
Iger and Andy discussed this matter all afternoon, and they discovered that they had made a very serious mistake in the plan they had made before.
This mistake is to be too tolerant to some teams that are unwilling to join the defensive alliance.
In their previous understanding, the two believed that a third party should be allowed to exist between enemies and friends, which means that it does not have to be black and white. Neutral forces must be allowed to exist.
The mistake in this understanding is that in a chaotic environment of joint development, there will inevitably be three situations: black, white and gray. But Puduo County is different. This is the territory of the gospel team.
By allowing neutrality, you are actually acknowledging that someone can defy the order here.
The correct tone for dealing with the survivor team should be: Puduo County is the territory that I have conquered with my life. Once you reach my territory, you must obey my orders.
Any survivors who disobey the gospel team's orders will be driven out directly. When necessary, they can use force to deter them or even eliminate them as enemies.
After this tone was settled, it was not too late to make amends. Andy and Iger then spent an entire night and drank two pots of black coffee, and finally formulated the criteria for the lowest level of friends.
In addition to the military alliance, the two of them established a generalized free trade alliance.
To put it simply, the entire Puduo County survivor team should be organized into a big onion structure.
The gospel team is the innermost layer of the onion, the outside is the sub-team, and the outside is the military alliance. The layer outside the military alliance is the free trade alliance.
Joining the Free Trade Alliance is compulsory, but the Free Trade Alliance is not a mandatory organization. It is an economic self-help organization whose core goal is to establish free trade in Puduo County.
In order to achieve this goal, the gospel team in Jixi Town is now ready to serve as a core member and provide everyone with an effective currency: fuel coupons.
Through fuel coupons, allies can trade with each other more conveniently.
Similarly, for mutual benefit and win-win results, all teams and individuals who recognize and use fuel coupons are regarded as "closest friends".
The closest friends can enjoy the most preferential treatment in trade. No team or individual is allowed to increase the price of goods and services without authorization for friends who use fuel coupons.
Specific prices are determined by everyone through discussion, and can rise or fall at regular intervals. Each rise or fall will be broadcast repeatedly using gospel radio.
In the not-too-distant future, when everyone turns on the radio on time every morning, they will hear a female voice reporting: "
Today’s prices:
Potatoes, 200ml per pound; flour, 300ml per pound; canned beans, 500ml each..."
Finally, there will definitely be sweets to be had by joining the Free Trade Alliance.
This is also the most attractive policy formulated by Iger and Andy, that is, all teams can obtain corresponding loan qualifications after being evaluated. The specific loan amount and interest standards are customized by the gospel team.
These are tempting carrots, but of course, the stick is also ready.
The first is to hold the first Free Trade Conference. The gospel team will dispatch field personnel to conduct a census and registration of people in Puduo County. The gospel team will invite all survivor teams to Jixi Town as guests. Each team will receive 2 people free of charge.
Teams and individuals who fail to register for the census and go to Jixi Town to participate in the meeting will be regarded as "undesirables" and ordered to move out of Puduo County within a time limit.
At the same time, Andy was going to announce to everyone the issue of membership dues payment.
Because all members enjoy the security benefits brought by the Evangelical Defense Alliance, they are required to pay membership dues to fund the operations of the Evangelical Defense Alliance.
In this way, the entire Puduo County system has been formed. Those who are not willing to join the Defense Alliance now will probably regret it in the future, because there will be no barriers to joining the Defense Alliance in the future.
Now that the division of labor is clear, Andy is responsible for building and managing the economic and trade alliance, and Iger is responsible for building and managing the military alliance. The two of them seem to have returned to the time when Andy was in charge of internal affairs and Iger was in charge of external affairs.
Next, Ige has some things to do. He plans to go back and reorganize his reclamation team again. This time he will pull a very large joint field team and then go through Puduo County.
From now on, there can only be one type of people in Puduo County, and that is those who join the Evangelical Alliance. In addition, both infected people and survivors are enemies that the field team needs to eliminate.
