Surdak rushed back to Ruyt, only to move his family to the castle of Ruyt, and did not actually return to Clay. Count Cushing has taken back the management of Ruyt, and he plans to draw up a half-year construction plan for Mucuso City by the end of this month, and then enter the battlefield.

He's already with Clay. Count Cushing said that he would help him manage it for another half a year.

During this time, Hathaway and Beatrice will also be involved in the management of Ruyt.

Gulit and the herd of cattle and sheep are still on their way to Ruyt, and if there are no major problems on the way, it is estimated that they should be able to reach Ruyt by the end of the month.

The magic caravan followed the flow of people into the portal in the central square of Ruit, and in the rippling water, Surdak arrived in the city of Mukuso.

After a month-long trip to Bena, Surdak returned to Mukuso and found that the buildings around the central square had been renovated and had taken on the appearance of the city.

The underground drains on the main street have been completely laid, the entire street has been paved with stone pavement, and now the sewers are deep into the streets of the city.

Surdak had the coachman drive the magic caravan around the civilian neighborhood for a while, and Charley and Luke's approach to the repair of the houses was to give priority to repairing those houses that were slightly damaged, and pushing the rebuilding directly to the reconstruction, but the reconstruction of the houses would take a little longer, and the task was to settle all the civilians so that every resident of Mucuso could have a shelter from the wind and rain.

With the introduction of the tax exemption system in the dry cloth area, a large number of merchants have taken the opportunity to flood the city, and almost all the shops on the main streets of Mukuso have resumed business.

Although the competition among the merchants was fierce, it contributed to the economic prosperity of the city.

Surdak had only been away for a month, and the city of Mukuso had changed a lot, with many buildings tightly surrounded by wooden shelves.

I saw Basil from afar. The treasurer stood in front of a newly renovated street-level shop, accompanied by Charlie and several leaders of the construction team, a two-storey townhouse, which seemed to have been renovated and finally delivered. The financial officer also went to the site to inspect it.

On the other side of the street, workers are constantly tearing down the wooden frames that have been erected, revealing the true face of the entire shop.

Surdak asked the coachman to pull the caravan to the side of the street, and he and Thea stepped out of the caravan and walked to the storefront.

I haven't seen him for a month, Charlie has lost a lot of weight, and he has become a lot darker, but the whole person has become a little more energetic.

Finance Officer Basil. When Hutton saw the golden Earl's Medal on Surdak's chest, he smiled and said, "Your Excellency Suldak, did your trip to Bena go well?" ”

"Everything went well, but it was too long to wait outside." Surdak said confidently: "How? If there is a problem with the quality of the shops repaired on the street here, if there is a problem, you should not help him hide it, that would harm them, if there is, put it forward directly, and urge them to correct it in time, this construction team has just been formed, and it is still relatively young, and it needs the help of you municipal officials. ”

Hearing Surdak say this, the treasurer Basil can be regarded as the stone hanging in his heart has fallen.

It should be that the letter of appointment from the Bena Province has been handed down, and Commander Surdak should have confirmed the position of Archon of Mukuso, and this award ceremony will elevate him to the title, which can be regarded as the final foreshadowing of this appointment.

"Now I hope that Charlie can speed up the construction a little faster, although the number of houses delivered in August is already six times that of July, but from my point of view, I also hope that you can spread the stall a little bigger, a little faster." Basil's treasurer reassured Charley.

"The influx of merchants from Ruit City has almost tripled the prices of the shops on the street, and even when the city was at its most prosperous in the past, the prices of the shops on the street would not be much higher than they are now, and now I need a large number of shops on the street to bring this price down." Basil's treasurer turned around and reported back to Surdak.

The three of them walked into the shop facing the street, and they could see that the shop was also decorated with some simple carpentry, the floor, stairs, wooden windows, and wooden doors were all done well, and the only thing that made Surdak a little speechless was that these carpenters were working in a strong Hylanza style......

"Charlie, what's the difficulty on your side?" Surdak touched the handrail of the oak staircase and asked Charley.

In fact, he was eager to remind Charlie that the stairs and floors were better made of red pine, that there were not many oak forests on the dry cloth plane, and that the oak was harder and more difficult to work with.

However, the carpenters of Wall Village have seen the most wood in their lives is oak, and Surdak is even worried that these carpenters will not even be able to work as carpenters when they encounter other wood.

Since it was Surdak who was asking, Charlie no longer hid it, and directly puffed up his chest and complained to Surdak:

"The construction team has many tasks and heavy tasks, and the infrastructure in the alleys of the city needs to be completed first, otherwise even if the houses are repaired, they will go back and do drainage and paving, which will affect the delivery date."

Charlie didn't care if Surdak was a viscount or an earl, the Surdak he knew would always be a native of Wall.

"In addition, the expansion of the city wall, this stall is too big, almost all the craftsmen we have recently recruited have been invested in the expansion of the city wall, and the funds of the engineering team have also been thrown into the expansion of the city wall!" When Charlie frowned, there were some wrinkles on his forehead, and it looked like he hadn't put a lot of thought into it lately.

Compared to Luke's diligence, Charlie's brain is more flexible.

"Didn't you say that according to the construction schedule, the payment will be made in batches? Treasurer Basil, how are the treasury reserves over there in the Finance Department? Surdak only gave Charley a start-up capital, and the follow-up will still need a continuous blood transfusion from the city hall.

"The treasury reserves are still relatively sufficient for the time being, but you should also know that the expansion of the city wall will not have any benefit for the Finance Department, and we will receive and allocate funds for each completed section of the city wall, and there is still some financial pressure, so the Finance Department needs the first construction engineering team to deliver the shops in the commercial street on time with quality and quantity, and these shops can be rented and sold in order to form a virtuous circle of urban construction funds." Basil's treasurer explained to Surdak.

Some aristocrats began to realize that buying real estate in the center of the city meant that large sums of money were circulating in the market of Mukuso.

"The expansion of the city wall has been postponed, has the old city wall been repaired?" Surdak pondered for a moment and patted Charley on the shoulder and asked.

"The inner walls have been repaired and are now being prepared to raise the walls of the old town, and we plan to add auxiliary supports of the masonry structure on the inside of the walls, and then continue to build up five metres," Charley said. ”

Thinking of preventing the cavemen from digging holes in the city and attacking the city, Surdak said, "In addition to repairing the city wall, I also plan to dig a trench on the inside of the city wall......

The three of them walked around the shops on the street as they talked, and finally Charley talked about the new measures implemented by the first construction team, and Charley and Luke, at Aung San's suggestion, turned the project teams into full-time construction teams, divided into demolition teams, mason teams, carpentry teams, cleaning teams, and so on. Now these construction teams are almost jumping back and forth in various engineering projects in the city, which is more efficient......

Before leaving, Surdak tapped Charlie on the chest with his fist, telling him to pay more attention to rest.

……

Surdak arrived at the town hall and then convened a meeting of the House of Representatives in the city of Mukuso, where he first read out the letter of appointment to the House of Representatives of the province of Ribena, and heard that Surdak was not only the Governor of the City of Mukuso, but also the Speaker of the House of Representatives, and also oversaw the entire Gampu plane, and also served as the Governor of the city of Ruyt.

The officials of the Mukuso City Hall finally recognized the situation in front of them.

In the past, Surdak served as the consul of Mukuso City, relying on his military power and the full support of the representatives of the Thirteen Lords' Army, but now Surdak took out the letter of appointment of the Bena Provincial House of Representatives and read it, which means that the Bena Provincial House of Representatives will fully support Surdak's governance.

Surdak then adjusted the functions and powers of the town hall, and the first thing was to officially appoint Baron Martino to the post of director of the urban renewal department, and the urban renewal bureau was officially separated from the logistics department.

After Surdak finished talking about his plan, he did not give these members of the House of Representatives time to consider and discuss, and directly voted by a show of hands.

As parliamentarians raised their hands, Surdak's first act after his official appointment went ahead.

Earl Ian, the Minister of Logistics, who was sitting in the corner of the Chamber of Deputies Chamber of Representatives, had a gray face, the largest piece of cake in the Logistics Department had been completely stripped out, and his power had been reduced by a large amount, apparently because of his recent work, which made Surdak not very satisfied.

Surdak also proposed an agenda item that he did not vote on the spot, but left it to the parliamentarians to fully discuss.

He plans to build a Mukuso City Logistics Center outside the city, which will concentrate all the export goods of the dry cloth plane and transport them to Ruyt City through the portal.

Surdak's first official return to Mukuso was spent sitting in the chamber of the House of Representatives.

When he had finished his day's work, he would take a magical caravan from Mucuso to the castle of Ruyt......
