1226. Meetings

President Sisi also knew that the Archon could not give Ruyter such a big credit to the Magic Guild for nothing, and that the investigation and elimination of the Dark Arts Retreat happened to be the point of accusation by the Magic Guild's law enforcement team.

Once it was revealed that there was a Dark Arts Hermitage stronghold in the Ruit City area, the Magic Guild knew nothing about it, and when he finished his tenure as president of the Ruyt City Magic Guild, his evaluation would be ruined.

President Sisi took off the magic cone hat he wore on his head, his gray hair was meticulously groomed, his hands were slender and his nails were neatly trimmed, and he held a short fir staff in his hand, and said to Surdak very modestly:

"Your Excellency Archon Surdak, thank you very much for informing us in a timely manner."

Surdak bowed slightly and said, "This is what we should do." ”

At this time, Thea was wearing a skirt and had an unconcealable sleepiness on her face, and walked over with black tea.

President Sisi waited for Thea to leave before he said earnestly to Surdak:

"This matter is very important to our Magic Guild, and I will follow up on the follow-up process throughout the next step."

Surdak smiled and said to President Sisi, "I hope to have more communication on these matters in the future, and get the support of the Magic Guild......"

President Sisi smiled, extended a hand to Surdak, and said, "Of course, this is our business, and I hope to cooperate with Ruyt City Hall in other aspects." ”

"For this matter, if there is any request, I hope you can put it forward, I will try my best to satisfy you......"

I didn't expect President Sisi of the Ruit City Magic Guild to be so easy to deal with.

Surdak busily said:

"I'm also looking forward to some of our collaborations in the future, President Sisi."

"Not being able to say hello in advance is our faux pas......"

Before leaving, President Sisi of the Magic Guild was given a map of the abandoned mine area and a pass for entry and exit provided by Surdak.

With this pass, you can freely enter and exit the research institute of the Dark Arts Hermitage that is occupied by the Heavy Infantry Regiment, otherwise the Heavy Infantry Warriors will not allow anyone to enter the Dark Arts Order's research institute.

After seeing off President Sisi, Surdak asked Thea to catch up on sleep in the break room next door to his office.

He was going to hold a meeting in the town hall, and he didn't need Thea to accompany him for the time being.

……

Surdak walked into the third conference hall of the city hall on time, and the conference hall that was still talking about it immediately fell silent, the finance officer, the logistics minister, the chief of the security guard, and the commander of the city security brigade were all present, and when these powerful people in the city hall looked at Surdak, they were extremely careful to hide the negative emotions in their hearts.

The town hall officials sitting at the end of the conference table touched their chins with their hands and brushed the expressions off their faces......

There was silence in the conference hall for a moment, and Surdak sat down at the head of the conference table.

Surdak habitually knocked on the table, keeping the eyes of everyone in the chamber looking.

He then said: "In the past two days, I have been dealing with some problems on the side of the abandoned mine, which should be left over from the time of Lord MacDonnell, and it is going very well, so I can return to Ruit City early. ”

The officials in the conference hall suddenly realized that in the past few days when the consul of Surdak disappeared for no reason, he had actually gone to the mountains of the abandoned mining area.

Surdak glanced around before he said:

"The first thing to do with this meeting today is to see if there have been any problems in Ruyt that have not been dealt with in the last few days."

He set his eyes on Nathaniel, the commander of the guard battalion, who immediately stood up and said, "Your Excellency, the security in the city of Ruyt has been normal lately......

Surdak then looked back at Mikey. Mende, the commander of the city's security brigade, also quickly stood up and said:

"Everything is normal in the city defense."

Surdak then nodded, motioned for the two to sit down, and then said:

"It's just that the number of foreign caravans is increasing, and we must beware of them gathering to make trouble while drunk, so the guard camp has to send some more patrols every night. In addition, I don't want to hear about local officials extorting businessmen from other places, once this happens, I don't care if the matter is true or not, the reported officials will be temporarily dismissed from all positions and under investigation until they prove their innocence! ”

"In addition, Kurt. The Count of Latte approached me and told me that some of the young and promising nobles in the city were optimistic about the future development of the restaurant square, so they wanted to acquire some land in the surrounding area and run some family businesses, and hoped that I would open the land around the steel mill to the outside world and allow it to be traded. ”

"I thought about it for a while...... In principle, I have no objection to young nobles doing business in the slums, but I need them to make a commitment not to exploit the commoners as nobles, and to follow the laws of the commoners when doing business in the ghetto. ”

When Surdak said this, the officials in the conference hall questioned in low voices.

But Surdak simply ignored these voices and continued:

"I don't want to see some conflicts of interest to put on an aristocratic status, and the land around the restaurant square, I will set up a new institution in the city hall - the property management office, for these houses that have not yet been renovated, the city hall is only rented and not sold!"

"However, the aristocracy engaged in commercial activities, there will be a policy of tax relief."

"Of course, the aristocrats will not always enjoy this benefit, in order to encourage newcomers to start their own businesses, the tax reduction time is one year, the specific amount of reduction, this depends on what industry is engaged in, if it is a trading firm, the tax reduction and exemption will be initially set at 30%."

"In addition, I don't want to see malicious competition, any monopoly, using the power and status in their hands to excessively suppress fellow travelers, will be severely punished."

"I hope that the business district of the restaurant area will be a hotbed of business in Ruit City, and I hope that some qualified businessmen can be cultivated there, and I hope that it can become a beacon for the economic development of Ruit City."

"All of you here, if any of your relatives or friends want to know about this, please repeat what I said to them......

After Surdak finished speaking, he stopped and took a sip of black tea that was slightly bitter.

The officials of the town hall looked different and asked Surdak for details, and Surdak explained these things in detail.

When this topic came to an end, the commander of the city security brigade, Mikey. Mende coughed lightly twice, and then said to Surdak:

"Your Excellency, regarding the repair of the city walls of Ruit, I hope that the city hall can increase some appropriations, in the past two years, the problem of the aging of the city walls has become more and more serious, and some places have collapsed and ......."
