What troubles Wufeng is not a military problem, but a ruling and management of the two urban republics of Moro and East Samoa. Wufeng, who has seen some urban republics on the Baltic coast of the Western Continent, is not unfamiliar with this political model of urban industrial and commercial forces as the power class. In Wufeng's view, the two republics of Moro and East Samoa are also so-called democratic republics based on the prosperity of industry and commerce, and are similar to those of urban republics with developed industry and commerce in the Western Continent. However, the seats occupied by landowners in the parliament of Moro and East Samoa are still large. Although they cannot control the urban republics, they cannot be underestimated, because there is still a considerable area of ​​territory outside the urban areas of these two urban republics that belong to agricultural areas.

Due to the prosperity of industry and commerce, most of the members who control the power of urban councils come from the business class, especially some large industrial and commercial families, who play an important role in the parliament. They either send family members to serve as officials, or send interest spokespersons to run for parliament, or because interests are combined into groups to control the policy of the parliament, the power of the urban republic is actually in the hands of several large families that control the lifeline of the city's economy.

Taking Eastern Samoa as an example, the control of urban power is basically three, almost controlled by the three families and their allies. As long as two of the three families can reach an agreement, they can basically be approved in the parliament.

The Metic family, which controls about 40% of the entire urban maritime industry, not only has its own private dock, but also has more than 80 ships of all sizes and sizes. The transportation network covers three continents and has a strong economic foundation in the Tanghe Empire. Quanzhou and Isoban Port in the Japanese land are both important trade strongholds of the Metic family. However, his important ally, the Giggs family mainly focuses on the shipbuilding and repair industry. The Giggs family of the three major shipyards in East Samoa control one, and the other is jointly controlled by the Giggs family and the Metic family. The shipbuilding and transportation industry headed by the Metic family is the strongest and has the greatest influence in the city council.

Another one that can be compared with the Metic family alliance is the Modai family, which mainly focuses on bead collection and fishing. The Modai family controls half of the entire East Samoa fishing industry, and 60% of the bead collection industry. It is a well-deserved fishing family. The various sea beads produced not only have an important position in the East Continent, but are also exported to the Central and Western Continents. The Modai family's in-laws controls the largest shipyard among the three major shipyards in East Samoa, and also has a large number of forests and mountains in East Samoa. It is also the owner of the large land and timber exporter of East Samoa. The two families are together due to their in-laws, which is enough to compete with the Metic family alliance.

Another family is the Gray family. This family was originally a large planter in East Samoa. It owned a large number of coffee and sugarcane plantations, but it has always been a disadvantaged group in politics. For a long time, it could only stay in the city council. Later, when the Gray family took advantage of the tsunami losses in the salt manufacturing industry in East Samoa and was on the verge of bankruptcy, they spent money to acquire a large number of salt farms, becoming the salt-making giant of the East Samoa Urban Republic, and also affected the entire salt-making industry and the salt sales industry. Therefore, they rose in the city council and became another pole of the three giants.

The three major families and their alliances and some of the forces affiliated with them influence more than 70% of the members of the entire city council, while the remaining 30% are composed of small merchants, handicraftsmen, freelancers, citizens, fishermen and representatives of farmers. According to urban laws, the institutions that directly exercise administrative powers of the city republic are the government, and the government has seven officials, namely the CEO, the assistant to the chief consul, the finance minister, the interior minister, and the minister of business. The latter four are all subject to the chief consul, and there are also the justice of the Republic and the marshal of the Republic. These two are not subject to the jurisdiction and constraints of the chief consul, and are directly elected by the parliament. The above seven officials are appointed and removed from the parliament.

General affairs are handled by the executive government, while major affairs and legal policies are introduced and revised to require approval from the city council. Extraordinary major affairs require the consent of more than two-thirds of the members of the city council before they can be passed. There are a total of 100 members of the city council, which means that particularly major affairs require the consent of more than 67 members of the parliament to be approved.

The situation between Moro and Eastern Samoa is similar, but Moro has always been the financial center of the eastern part of the Peninsula Alliance, where the financial aristocracy is more powerful, and their ties with the South China League are closer. Many commercial aristocracy in the countries and city-states of the South China League have close ties with the financial aristocracy of Moro.

To be honest, Wufeng still appreciates this political model in the two urban republics of Moro and East Samoa. No matter how many disadvantages there are, at least one thing is certain. This system is definitely quite advanced than the Consultative Conference that has been gradually implemented in its territory. Although this model is not very suitable for the imperial land due to regional differences, Wufeng believes that as the times go, this model will gradually show its advantages and can reflect public opinion more clearly and realistically. Those who attempt to use the privileges of the government to seek the interests of each person and infringe on the interests of the public will also be greatly restricted.

However, this model still has many problems. For example, due to the different economic levels of the people and the uneven population quality, the election of parliamentarians is easily manipulated, especially those with economic strength can use various means to achieve their goals. This model is not very suitable for the current situation of chaos. The so-called democracy is likely to miss major issues due to inefficiency in this era. Therefore, although Wufeng himself has an appreciation attitude, he does not think that now is the time to implement this system, especially in the empire. This requires a gradual change in the people's thinking mode to gradually adapt and accept.

However, where should these two cities go? This is a headache for Wufeng. It should be said that from the moment, the political operation model of the two urban republics of East Samoa and Moro is quite smooth. Although the actual power of the two major urban republics is in the hands of several families, on the surface, they have at least used a relatively hidden way to achieve their power control. Now that their entry has completely overturned their inherent political model, and the balanced separatist forces of all parties are immediately broken. Perhaps they have never thought about how the Tanghe people, who were originally thousands of miles apart, would suddenly come to the city and become their masters. They are probably confused at this time, not knowing what their future will look like, but they do not know that they are also confused. Thinking of this, Wufeng himself couldn't help but smile bitterly.

My goal is very simple, which is to have a stable sea outlet on the South China Ocean, so that Western Xinjiang products can have a convenient sea outlet and allow their navy to grow as quickly as possible, and this requires a stage suitable for their growth. At the same time, I must also have the ability to control the southern channel. With this ability, not only can I form a pincer attack on those enemies (Maqi Khans) and potential enemies (Southeast Alliance) from land, but also can cut off their land transportation channels at any time. Once the navy's strength reaches the level of blocking the South China Ocean, the entire Eastern Continent will become a chessboard that I can arrange at will.

At present, this strategic intention has been basically achieved, but Wufeng does not want to base the realization of this strategic intention on the chaos and decline of the two urban republics of East Samoa and Moro. He hopes to find a suitable balance point, which requires his own innovation in political models and the compromise between various forces.

Hearing a slight footsteps from behind, Wufeng knew that Su Qin was coming. Su Qin had just turned to Milan from Situ Biao and boarded a boat from Milan to sail straight to East Samoa. When he was in Milan, the two cities of East Samoa and Moro had not yet fallen. It was not until he arrived in the territory of the South China Federation of South China and learned the news through the local area, so he took a boat to East Samoa to land.

"Is Su Qin here?" Without looking back, Wufeng's eyes still fell at the junction of sea and sky in the distance. The light blue and gray white gradually merged into one color. The sea breeze that hits us brings a faint smell of sea fishy smell. Only people who have lived deep in the mainland for a long time will be so sensitive to this smell. People who have lived here for a long time have already lost their sense of smell. Maybe they think this smell of sea fishy smell exists in every part of the world.

"Yes, Your Highness." This was not the first time Su Qin went out to sea on a boat, but sailing thousands of miles in one breath like this made him feel a little tired. Although he had been resting for two days, the feeling of discomfort had not completely disappeared. However, the complicated affairs in front of him could not have more rest time. He had to shoulder the heavy responsibility of communicating and coordinating with the industrial and commercial forces in the two cities of East Samoa and Moro, while Wang Liao took on the task of bargaining with the Nanyang Alliance.
