"You're doing well!" Leo said, reaching out and patting Jason's arm, looking at him in a delicate gentleman's trench coat and a high-end wallwatch.

The spirit net swept over the other party, and I have to say that compared to Jason's situation a few years ago, the blood of the giant family on his body has been stimulated to a certain extent, and the most direct manifestation is that his body has become taller and stronger.

"Haha!" Jason smirked twice, then said to his wife who was following him, "Come on, Lisa, let me introduce you, this is what I often call a good comrade-in-arms and a good brother, Leo!"

"Hello, Leo. After Jason confirmed Leo's identity, the last trace of suspicion in Lisa's heart also dissipated, and she followed her husband's instructions to come forward and greet Leo, and her tone was much closer.

"Hello. Leo nodded, then said to Jason, "I should be living in Port Set for a while." ”

"That's great, Nelson will definitely be happy," Jason was very sincerely happy with Leo's decision, and then as if he remembered something, he hurriedly said: "By the way, your two properties have always been taken care of by me and Nelson now, and now that you are back, it is just in time to exchange them for you." With that, he led Leo out, and said, "Let's go to your apartment first, I think you should also want to freshen up first, I can take advantage of this time to go to Nelson and tell him the news of your return." ”

Leo didn't object, followed Jason out of the office, outside the hotel, boarded a special carriage, and drove towards the city.

On the way, Jason gushes about his experiences and past events over the years, while Leo listens as he looks out at the scene in Port Sette, recalling his old memories.

Leo Dodd's memory is extremely impressive, because this is the first big city he has seen, and even if the memories of the past have become memory fragments, the memories related to Port Set are still very deep.

If he hadn't joined the army, Leo Dodd would probably never have left his hometown, a barren village in the interior of the Kingdom of England, to take over his father's blacksmith shop, make some farming tools and other daily iron tools for the villagers, and then marry a village woman and live this life.

However, Leo Dodd eventually chose to go out, and in a very cheap way to get out of the village and see the outside world, and the first big city he saw was Port Seth.

Originally, the troops were going to leave from the exclusive military port, but there were not enough military ships at that time, so some civilian ships were requisitioned, and some troops were allowed to leave by ship from other port cities, and Leo's unit was assigned to the port of Seth, and even luckily stationed here for two days, so that Leo could visit the city.

In Leo's current memory, he clearly remembers the scene when he and his comrades visited Port Set, and even remembers the oath they made to brag to each other, I have to say that the oath made at that time had a property in Port Set and became a city person, and now it is considered complete.

Like other new megacities on the continent of Vilon, the architecture of Port Sette is changing rapidly, with old buildings being demolished and new buildings being rebuilt every day.

Although the port of Sette is one of the earliest port cities in the Kingdom of England and has a history of hundreds of years, with the tsunami and the dungeon, the old buildings in the past of the port of Sett were almost completely destroyed, and those that were not destroyed in the end became a ruin, so that the rebuilt port of Sette became as full of all kinds of trendy buildings as the new city, without the slightest feeling of an ancient city.

For the city builders of Port Set, they may also have to thank the original tsunami, because the old Port Set was built without any urban planning, and the whole city was built very chaotic and dirty, without the slightest pattern of a big city.

For example, for the convenience of the old town, all the urban areas were built around the dock area, and they were mixed with each other, and there were no sewers, all kinds of filth flowed everywhere, and the smell filled the whole city, which also made the most popular commodity in Port Sette at that time was perfume.

When the earthquake and tsunami devastated the city, Port Sette became a blank canvas on which city architects could paint as much as they wanted.

It's just that the original city builders obviously didn't expect that the Fran Empire would be divided, the Vilen continent would fall into all kinds of chaos, and there would be a large influx of refugees and displaced people into Port Set, which would expand several times in just a few decades, so the land reserved for urban expansion had already been occupied, and if it continued to expand, it would have to be built on the surrounding mountains.

For this reason, the magnates in the city now have to think of other methods, such as starting from urban construction, using the high-rise building construction method inherited from the American and Galrican kingdoms to increase some two- and three-story apartment buildings to a dozen stories high, and reducing the size of the rooms, renting them out to the common people at a low price, and then canceling all the parks that were previously built in the slums and turning them into houses, and even moving the workers' families to the factory area, building workers' exclusive residential houses and commercial streets, reducing the chance of workers entering the city, and making the city less crowded.

However, even in the face of the influx of refugees on the continent of Veron, the various measures of Port Sette still did not have much effect, just like the main road to the commercial district, the main road of the city, there are some refugees waiting to be recruited on both sides of the road, and the originally spacious road is also blocked by the crowded flow of people, and the horse-drawn carriage stops six or seven times in just a short stretch of road, and the time spent in place is even several times the driving time.

"They're all poor people. Perhaps seeing Leo's gaze lingering on the refugees for a while, Jason took the initiative to say: "The municipal council is considering stopping accepting these refugees, and there is a proposal to send them to the Moisan mainland." Lady Anne and Adeline are contacting the lord of Carlin to ask him to take in the refugees. You also know that Carlin County is full of swamps and wastelands, and no one in the Inge Kingdom wants to open up the wasteland, and if there are these refugees now, it can help the Inge Kingdom to have more land to use, and it can also alleviate this refugee flow. ”

"Lady Anne, are they in Port Set?" asked Leo.

"Yes. Jason nodded and said, "After the bombing of Miria City, Lady Anne left the Valon Continent, and they now live in the Garden District, where there was originally a medical school property, but now it has been transferred to Lady Anne's name. Ms. Anne and Adeline also serve in Catherine's School of Nursing. ”

Leo noticed the other information revealed in Jason's words and asked, "What happened to the medical school in the Kingdom of Inge?"

"The Council of the Kingdom believes that the great plague in Miria City is related to the medical school, and has put the medical school on the list of organizations to be monitored, and has confiscated all the facilities and properties of the medical school in the Kingdom of England. Jason also had a serious expression on his face, and said: "I heard that some strange things have been found in the facilities of some medical schools, and there are many corpses, there is evidence that these corpses are some missing homeless people in the past, anyway, now the medical school has become infamous in the Kingdom of England, and Ms. Anne has also withdrawn from the medical school, and is preparing to discuss with the royal government to establish a local medical school in the Kingdom of England." ”

"Looks like Lady Anne has a lot of ambitions!" Leo said with a smile.

There is no doubt that if the Kingdom of England Medical College is really established, with the prestige of Lady Anne and the efforts to promote this matter, the first president of the Kingdom Medical College will naturally be Anne.

However, in Leo's opinion, the chances of success in this matter may not be great, because there is already a medical research society within the Royal Academy of the Kingdom of England, although this medical research society is only a secondary society of the Royal Academy, and there are not many members, but the members here are all doctors trained in the Kingdom of England, with the xenophobia of the Kingdom of England, they definitely do not want an outsider to establish the Kingdom Medical College, and then an outsider becomes the dean.

Therefore, it is most likely that this medical research society will be reorganized, and this small academic college society will gradually become the Kingdom Medical College.

After passing through the three squares, a large number of patrols began to appear on the road, and the surrounding refugees began to decrease, after passing through a temporary fence, the refugees completely disappeared from the street, and the surrounding houses were no longer a dozen storey buildings, but became the most common red brick apartments in the Kingdom of England, and under each apartment was a shop, many well-dressed people came and went in and out of the shop, this scene was in stark contrast to a few hundred meters away.

Jason explained at this time: "This is a temporary arrangement made by the city council, which divides the commercial area into two parts, restricts refugees from entering the commercial area, municipal area, garden area and other urban areas, and any refugees who enter here without a pass will be immediately arrested, either they will be sent back to the Valon continent, or they will be sent to the mines to mine." This was also a measure of last resort, because the security in the city was also extremely bad at the height of the refugee flow, and there were even cases of city councillors being robbed by refugees, so these refugees except for those black-hearted factory owners who like to hire people at a low price, the residents of Port Set did not like them. ”

"Why don't they go back to the Veron Continent?" Leo frowned and asked, "As far as I know, the Fran Empire and the Fran United Kingdom have temporarily ceased war, and it should be better for them to return to the Veron Continent than now." ”

Jason shook his head and said, "You also said that it is a temporary truce, who can guarantee that the war will not appear again in a short time, they must be thinking that if they return to Veron and the war starts again, then it will be difficult to leave." ”

Leo looked at Jason with a little surprise, and said with a smile: "Jason, you have changed a lot over the years, if you couldn't say these words before." ”

Jason smiled and habitually wanted to scratch his head, but seemed to think of something, and immediately put his hand down and said: "Lisa said that since a man has become a family, he must mature, think more about things, and stop thinking about everything with his fists like before." ”

Seeing that Jason was able to find a suitable other half, Leo was also happy for his friend.

After a half-circle around a square, the carriage turned into an alley and stopped in front of a small apartment building behind a street-facing shop.

After Jason got out of the carriage, he motioned to Leo to wait, and then walked to the front shop, and after a while, a well-dressed old man walked out of the shop with Jason, and when he came to Leo, he saluted Leo and said, "Welcome home, sir, I am your butler Baroque Sanjes." ”

"Hello. Sanjes. Leo nodded.

Then the old man took a bunch of keys out of his pocket, walked to the apartment building, opened the door, and led Leo and Jason inside.

After entering the house, the old man led the two directly to the study, and then took out some documents from a secret safe in the study, put them on the coffee table in front of Leo, and said to Leo very formally: "These documents are all the recent situation of the property under your name, as well as the income over the years, and there are also some legal documents, you can sign these documents directly if you have no problem, and these legal documents can take effect immediately." ”

"Don't I only have an apartment and an office building?" Leo asked, picking up the papers, looking at them.

"Nielsen and I thought the office building was empty and empty, so we rented it out for you, and then used the rent to buy a few shops, invest in some properties, and make some gains over the years. Jason explained: "In addition, the apartment actually contains the shop in front, and the shop in front is a high-end watch store, and Nelson and I thought it was a pity to close, so we let it continue to operate." Sanjes is the steward we hired to help you manage the property, and he's very responsible. ”

"Well, thank you!" Leo nodded, didn't say much, just quickly looked through the documents in his hand, then picked up the pen on the coffee table and signed his name behind several legal documents, closed all the documents, handed them to Sanjes, and said: "You have managed well in the past few years, and your salary will double in the future, I hope you can continue to manage these industries for me." ”

"Yes sir. Sanjes didn't show much joy at the doubling of his salary, but remained calm, as if he wasn't the one who raised his salary, and then he put some of the keys on the table, including the safe, which all indicated what locks to open, and asked Leo and Jason if they needed a drink, and then walked out of the room, closing the door gently.

"How's that? Not bad!" Jason said with a smile: "This is the butler that Nelson and I hired for you, he used to be the butler of the Duke of Buckingham, assisting the Duke of Buckingham in managing some estates, so these small estates of yours are very simple in his hands, to be honest, if it wasn't for the housekeeper specially selected for you, maybe I would have already poached him with a lot of money." ”

Leo didn't care about Jason's envy, he cared more about another thing, and asked, "Why did he leave the Duke of Buckingham?"
