Xu Kuang looked at the Lord of Xiangtao Ridge in front of him and couldn't help but ask:

"Mr. Mike, what's the matter with you?"

Mike sighed and said to Xu Kuang with a tired face:

"Your Excellency Xu Kuang took down Xiangcheng Town and Balsam Melon Ridge in one go. It's really impressive."

Xu Kuang was a little confused. He didn't think this person was here to flatter him.

"Mr. Mike, if you have anything to say, just say it. You've made me don't know what to say."

Mike nodded, looked at Xu Kuang, and took out a stack of paper.

Xu Kuang looked at the paper in Mike's hand in shock and asked:

"What's this?".

Mike sighed and said to Xu Kuang:

"This is the detailed information about our land, population, and industry in Xiangtao Ridge, as well as the land deeds, tax deeds, and commercial deeds for these things."

Xu Kuang frowned slightly. He finally understood that this old guy wanted to sell them all.

But yes, the side of Xiangtao Ridge close to the Pearl River is a cliff, and the only low-lying area is connected to Mushroom Ridge, while the other three land routes have been surrounded by Xu Kuang's territory. If Xu Kuang has evil intentions one day, Prepare to get Xiangtao Ridge, Xiangtao Ridge is really just waiting to die.

To be honest, Xu Kuang was tempted. He could get as much as he wanted for this kind of territory that was reasonable, legal, and bloodless.

"How much are you going to sell it for?"

"Fifty thousand gold coins.".

Xu Kuang looked at Mike and asked:

"Are you serious?".

Mike replied:

"I'm very serious."

Xu Kuang carefully looked at the title deed and population of Xiangtao Ridge, and made a silent calculation in his mind. He found that spending half a million gold coins to buy a land of nearly 200 square kilometers and a population of tens of thousands was not a loss.

Xu Kuang nodded and said to Mike:

"I understand, do you want cash or monthly payment?".

Mike thought for a while and asked:

“Can I get it monthly?”.

Xu Kuang nodded.

Mike asked:

“How much money can I get every month?”.

Xu Kuang smiled and said:

"It depends on your own wishes.".

Mike nodded, stretched out his hand, like a child asking for candy, and said to Xu Kuang:

"Then get me 10,000 gold coins first.".

Xu Kuang wrote a note directly and asked him to go find Jenny.

Xu Kuang handed this pile of things to Xu Zheng and asked him to sort it out as soon as possible.

Ju Ling was also transferred back. As soon as he came back, he was called by Xu Kuang.

Ju Ling looked at Xu Kuang and asked:

"My lord asked me to come back, there must be a task for me."

Xu Kuang touched his nose and said to Ju Ling:

"Indeed, I am planning to establish the Department of Education and make you the director.".

Ju Ling was stunned for a moment, and then asked:

"What does the Department of Education do?"

Xu Kuang counted on his fingers:

"Schools, middle schools, military schools, and the medical school that will be established soon, and the business school that will be established in the future, and... in short, the further you go, the heavier your burden will be."

Ju Ling immediately stood up and said to Xu Kuang:

"Thank you for your lord's appreciation. I have lived up to your lord's high expectations.".

Xu Kuang nodded and said to Ju Ling:

"I give you the first task. Set up a medical school and teach 500 soldiers the most basic battlefield first aid knowledge within three months."

Ju Ling:......

He looked at Xu Kuang and asked:

"What can you give me?".

Xu Kuang thought for a while and said to Ju Ling:

"Three hundred thousand gold coins.".

"anything else?".

"Gone.".

Ju Ling took a deep breath and said to Xu Kuang:

"Well, this is really a difficult task, Lord, please don't worry, I will definitely be able to complete it.".

Xu Kuang nodded and said to Ju Ling:

"Come on, I will build a hospital in half a year. I hope the people there will be qualified to be doctors by then.".

Ju Ling suddenly lost his balance and sat on the chair again.

"Lord, the training of doctors should not be rushed...".

Xu Kuang touched his nose in embarrassment. He felt a little too fast. He asked:

"It seems a bit fast...how long do you want to prepare...".

Ju Ling budget said:

"The most important thing is that there are no good doctors. If there are good doctors, I can recruit talents for you in a short time. But now, I can only say to take it step by step."

Xu Kuang nodded and said to Ju Ling:

"I understand, please take care of yourself."

Ju Ling nodded, turned and left.

After Ju Ling left, Xu Kuang started looking for someone to talk to again.

This time it's Hathaway.

Xu Kuang said to Hathaway:

"Your burden may be heavier next.".

Hathaway asked in surprise:

"Why?".

Xu Kuang sighed and said to Hathaway:

"Because these ridges on three sides have already surrounded the city, this will be the main urban area of Mushroom City in the future. You still need to communicate with Jenny's Commercial Department for future business planning."

Hathaway nodded and said to Xu Kuang:

"I have no problem, I believe in my own abilities.".

Xu Kuang nodded and said to Hathaway:

"You can go home and see Uncle Wayne when you have time.".

Hathaway looked at Xu Kuang in shock and asked:

"Why?".

Xu Kuang sighed and said to Hathaway:

"Victor is dead. My uncle's two brothers who were born and died in the past are all dead. He is the only one left. He will be very lonely."

Hathaway nodded and said to Xu Kuang:

"I will take this matter to heart, but only after I am done with these things.".

Xu Kuang sighed. He didn't know whether it was right or wrong to let Hathaway do these things.

Xu Kuang began to talk to people one by one and gave everyone a shot of vaccination.

Immediately afterwards, Mogu Ridge held another meeting.

At the meeting, Xu Kuang announced the merger of the four territories into one, which caused a burst of cheers from everyone.

But soon, Xu Kuang sighed again, and he said to everyone:

"Don't be happy or blindly complacent. Our crisis has not passed yet. It's best for you to consider how to fool the Noble Management Department recently. If we can't handle this matter well, we will be in trouble next time."

Xu Kuang thought for a while and frowned slightly, but soon he changed the topic to other places.

Xu Kuang then announced some personnel transfers and appointments:

Zhuge Duan was appointed Minister of the Interior, in charge of all departments, and Guo Zan was appointed Director-General of the Department of Foreign Affairs.

Lane was transferred from the Household Registration Department to the Agriculture Department, Pang Yu was appointed director of the Household Registration Department, Huo Yun and Zhang Damiao were stationed in Xiangcheng Town... Zhou Jin was appointed commander of the first division of the Panshi Army, Zhao Congfeng was appointed commander of the first brigade, Xin Jian was appointed commander of the second brigade, and Huo Kang was appointed commander of the third brigade...

Artillery, cavalry, and infantry were reintegrated.

Xu Kuang recited a long list, as if he was worried that others would not be able to remember it, and he seemed to be worried that he would not be able to remember it. In short, it was very contradictory.

Xu Kuang sighed. He looked into the distance, knowing that he might have to spend the next days in a different way.
