1091. Above the sea of clouds

Count Ian, the Minister of Logistics, returned to the office of the Logistics Department from the conference hall sullenly, and saw Baron Martino waiting at the door of the Logistics Department.

A group of officials from the logistics department are in the office, and they have already found various street corners to sneak out at this time, but today they are in order to collectively surround the financial officer Basil. Huton, it's rare for everyone to stay in the office of the logistics department.

Count Ian nodded to Baron Martino, stretched out his hand to shake hands with Baron Martino, and then said with a friendly smile:

"Baron Martino, Archon Surdak asked you and me to form the Urban Renewal Bureau, I don't know if you have any good ideas."

With that, he invited Martino into his office.

The assistant brought the black tea, and Baron Martino, sitting on the comfortable sofa, took the initiative to say to the Minister of Logistics, Count Ian:

"Lord Ian, I'm just a small nobleman living in the small town of Dodan on the White Forest Plane, and I have never been an official before, so how can I have any ideas!"

Hearing Baron Martino's words, Count Ian immediately asked tentatively:

"Oh? Are you a nobleman of the White Forest Plane? ”

Baron Martino immediately replied respectfully, "Yes, Lord Earl Ian." ”

Count Ian, the Minister of Logistics, was very satisfied with Baron Martino's respectful gesture, and while inviting Baron Martino to taste black tea, he asked Baron Martino:

"I heard that the Archon Surdak came from the White Forest Plane?"

Baron Martino replied, "Your Excellency was the mayor and garrison commander of our town, and the largest lord in the region north of the Thorn Mountains. ”

"Oh."

Earl Ian nodded, he knew the news.

After all, this Viscount Surdak has become the largest lord of the Ganbu plane in one fell swoop by virtue of his military exploits in the Ganbu plane, and he also has the largest army in the Ganbu plane in his hands, and there is Marquis Luthor standing behind him, so it is difficult for people not to pay attention to him.

Generally speaking, a noble lord in charge of a city is at least a marquis.

Earl Ian knew that Viscount Surdak was about to go to Pena City to attend the award ceremony, and he was afraid that when he returned from Bena City, he would be promoted to Earl.

Even so, in charge of a central city as a count, it is obvious that the title is still a bit too low.

However, judging from the current situation, Surdak's rule over the city of Mukuso is a foregone conclusion.

"How long have you known Archon Surdak?" Earl Ian asked casually.

Baron Martino said, "It's been about a year or so, the Archon approached me to build a temple of two goddesses in the town of Dodan, and later built a war college for the town......"

Baron Martino's posture was lowered, which made Count Ian feel comfortable.

Count Ian leaned back on the sofa and learned from Baron Martino that he was proficient in architectural design, to put it bluntly, he was just an architectural designer, and had no experience as a district official, which made Count Ian breathe a sigh of relief.

And he's a baron, and it doesn't seem like there's any threat to his position as head of logistics.

Since he was a close confidant of the Suldaq Archon, Count Ian's smile became even more cordial.

Later, Martino actually took out a stack of engineering project books and carefully explained some of the details of these urban planning projects to Count Ian.

Sure enough, as Archon Surdak said, each project was broken down in detail.

Although the Minister of Logistics, Earl Ian, looked very interested in listening, but in fact he was a little absent-minded.

He knew his logistics officials very well, and he knew that they had some relationship with the contractors, and he didn't think anyone would be willing to do what Surdak was promoting.

That is, these planning projects will not be taken on, and if a resolution is not implemented, then it will eventually go back to the old model.

So what he's doing now is useless work, and he's not interested in listening to useless things.

The Suldak Archon intends to rectify the corruption that exists in the city's renovation projects, which touches the interests of almost all officials in the Logistics Department.

Without the promotion of the logistics department, these urban engineering construction could not be carried out at all......

The logistics minister drank a few cups of black tea, then looked at his pocket watch, patted his stomach like a leather ball, and said to Baron Martino cordially: "I think the time is almost noon, or we will go to have some lunch first, and we will continue to talk about the rest in the afternoon?" ”

Baron Martino immediately got up, then nodded in agreement.

"Earl Ian, if there is a construction team to bid for the Urban Renewal Bureau in the afternoon, I will ask them to make a detailed quotation according to the details of these projects?" Baron Martino asked tentatively.

Earl Ian, the Minister of Logistics, waved his hand casually and said, "That's it!" ”

At noon, the officials of the logistics department had dinner together in the high-end restaurant on the west side of the central square, and the head of logistics, Earl Ian, sat in the main seat.

'Who can do these municipal works?' ’

'What do you do if you don't have money?' ’

'The situation of urban renovation projects is so complicated, who knows how much it will cost!' ’

The officials of the Logistics Department did not dare to complain in front of Surdak, or even in the town hall, but in the cafeteria, they began to complain about the rough style of the Surdak Archon.

But complaining is complaining, after all, the Suldak Archon is not only the ruler of Mukuso, but also the supreme commander of the garrison of the Gampu plane.

Gu Yi

Who would dare to complain in front of him?

It was said that every time he occupied a town, the nobles who did not participate in the council for the first time would be deprived of the dimensional territory.

It's just unreasonable.

'How can we pay for the project at the city hall out of our own pockets?' ’

Officials poured out bitterness.

The logistics minister didn't say much, but said in a joking tone: "If you have an idea, you can come to the newly established urban renewal bureau at the city hall to find me." ”

Officials have said that no one will go......

……

In the afternoon, the Minister of Logistics, Earl Ian, returned to the town hall and slept for a while in the lounge at the back of the office, where the female assistant served him in a noble dress and was just about to sit down for afternoon tea, remembering that she should go to the newly formed urban renewal bureau.

Walking to the temporary office area of the Urban Renewal Bureau, I saw Charlie and Luke standing in front of Baron Martino, holding a thick stack of materials in their hands, which seemed to have been stamped on them, and were looking through the details of the project.

It was only then that the Minister of Logistics reacted, the Archon of Surdak had stuffed the two young men into himself a week earlier, and Earl Ian had placed them both in the engineering team below, and I had heard that these two young men were hardworking, rarely spoke, and were very familiar with construction projects......

Earl Ian is only now coming to his senses.

At this time, Charlie and Lukexing hurriedly walked up, saluted the Minister of Logistics, and reported:

"Lord Count, we have set up the first construction team of Gampo, and we want to take over the renovation of houses in the civilian area, the urban sewer project, and the restoration of the city wall, and the detailed quotation and construction period have been submitted to Baron Martino......

So saying, he took out another stack of parchment and handed it to Earl Ian, and continued:

"This is the quotation we have listed, which contains the estimated completion date of the renovation works in each block, and we now have fifteen hundred craftsmen in our engineering team, and it is expected that a thousand more sewer diggers will arrive in Mukuso next week, and our engineering team will advance the works of these projects, and ask the Earl to take a look."

The Minister of Logistics suddenly found that Surdak was also in Baron Martino's office, and hurriedly reached out to take the parchment list, flipped through two pages at random, and said casually:

"It's clearly written, I think it's pretty good......"

"Before the evening, if there is no engineering team willing to undertake these projects, can these projects be given to the first construction engineering team of Gampo?" Baron Martino came out of his office and asked the Minister of Logistics with a smile.

Earl Ian, the Minister of Logistics, pursed his lips, snorted, endured the cramping pain in his heart, and said to the female assistant beside him:

"The notice went down, and it was said that there was already an engineering team willing to take over the three major projects of housing repair in civilian areas, urban sewers, and city wall repair, and if anyone else wanted to do it, they would make the quotation list and project delivery date and send it to the Urban Construction Bureau!"

After speaking, he smiled at him and walked into the office of the Urban Renewal Bureau......

Thea held a parchment notebook, stood at the door and blinked her big blue eyes, but sighed in her heart: The adult world is so hypocritical!

……

Charlie and Luke successfully took over the municipal works, 300 craftsmen from Wall Village were also called back from all over the city, Aung San separated more than 1,000 Bailin aborigines and followed the craftsmen of Wall Village as small workers, and Charley split up 30 engineering teams to go directly to the city to accept those projects that were in a state of semi-suspension.

The other artisans in Mucuso suddenly found out that they were unemployed, and there were some disputes during this time, such as the artisans organizing together to prevent the new construction team from entering the construction site.

However, these things are extremely simple for the knights of the guard battalion, especially the city of Mukuso has cleaned up a lot of gangsters who are messing around in the city a few days ago, and these craftsmen saw that the knights of the guard battalion were alarmed, and they immediately scattered in all directions......

The chief of the guard, Hamas, also took this opportunity to escort several of the arrested burglars back to Mukuso from the North Pass.

The robbers had been tortured on the North Pass for too many days, and each of them had confessed on a dozen pieces of parchment, and recorded their entire lives in detail, and the various experiences of these robbers could be used to write a book like a memoir.

The next day the robbers were guillotined, and the crowd of onlookers literally filled the square.

The executioner stood on the guillotine with a large axe, and the prisoner knelt at his feet, and the axe raised cut off the round head with precision, and blood splattered two meters away.

The people on the execution ground let out a burst of suppressed exclamations......

In just ten days, the security in Mukuso City has been greatly improved.

Charley and Luke's Gampo 1st Construction Corps were also on track for their projects, and they began to recruit artisans from Mukuso, many of whom now depended on their livelihoods.

Kobold slaves arrived in Mukuso the day before Surdak's departure, and these kobold slaves would be the main force of the city's sewer digging.

The ogre Gullitam and Brain Flower finally ate the long-awaited Yellow Sheep of Wall Village.

Surdak's series of tactics allowed the city of Mukuso to finally regain some vitality.

……

On the 20th of July, Surdak took Thea, Samira, Gulit and 300 soldiers of the First Turn back to Ruyt through the portal, and rushed to Bena City in a magical airship that stayed on the airport of Ruyt City to participate in the award ceremony.

He was accompanied by Clay, the Archon of the city of Ruit. Count Cushing, of course, did not go to Pena City to attend the investiture ceremony, but to Bena City to attend the wedding of Miss Hathaway, the daughter of the Marquis of Luther.

Surdak and Clay. Count Cushing boarded the magic airship together.

The airship floated into the air, the harsh sunlight made Surdak a little uncomfortable, and the province of Bena ushered in the height of summer, Ruit City was much hotter than Mukuso, the sky was as hot as a fire, and the steaming water vapor in the air almost distorted the scenery in the distance.

With a long roar from the magic airship, after entering the channel in the high-altitude wind layer, the sails of the five masts of the magic airship were all raised, and the strong wind blew the sails into a puff and flew towards Bena City.

Surdak stood on the roof of the ship, holding on to the railing with both hands, looking at the sea of clouds in the distance with the wind on his back, and his mood was mixed......
