Chapter 49 Internal Affairs Officer

After arduous struggle, in the evening, Redding and Bill finally walked under the city gate of Port Thunder.

At the last moment of entering the city, the vanguard of the monsters had already bit the tail of the transport team. If the attack of the monsters was not stopped in time, the slow and heavy vehicles of the transport team would have to block the city gate, which would inevitably lead to a bloody battle.

Lance is worthy of being a veteran who participated in the Gale War of the Storm Kingdom to open up the North Klein area. When he saw such an emergency, he immediately sent a rescue team and rushed out before the transport team blocked the city gate.

Redding also stopped, watching the confrontation between Lance's troops and the monsters. His personal soldiers lined up and guarded him.The lingering flame elements appeared from all around, and were quickly arranged in Ledding's hands. With the movement of waving the golden-red spell book, huge elemental energy gushed out, trying to exhaust the last mental power, and another Flamestorm!It was hitting the charge path of the herd.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the cavalry unit led by Lance completely smashed back the attack tip of the monster.

This action won about 10 minutes. The transportation team hurriedly rushed, and finally, with the help of the steel golem, they all safely entered the city wall.

Many citizens witnessed the end of the war on the city wall, and they had a direct impression of the ferocity of Warcraft.But what makes them talk about more is the power of powerful spells. From this, these ordinary city residents firmly believe that as long as they are under the leadership of the lord, Port Thunder will definitely be able to defeat the symbol of barbarism and win the hope of survival.

The number of monsters trailing the transport team was overwhelming. When the attack was fruitless, these monsters did not immediately attack or evacuate the city, but completely blocked the road to the east of the city.

Now, the four directions of the entire Leiming Port City are completely blocked by the monsters, leaving no gaps.The traffic artery leading to the port by the sea was also completely cut off. Fortunately, Leiding was well prepared, and all the civilians and soldiers there had withdrawn into the city.

Ledding arranged for the exhausted Bill and his party to rest near the station in the south of the city, and he himself had more important things to deal with—the spirited Ledding came to the aristocratic political center.

Now there are more and more monsters outside the city, and the monsters may attack the city at any time. Ledin must mobilize all the city residents to unite and make full preparations to fight against the army of monsters for a long time.

After the members of the aristocratic council evacuated by boat, Ledin occupied the original aristocratic political center and Thunder Sword's house, which is now the new ruling center and the base camp of the mercenaries.

Under the current situation of monsters besieging the city, Ledding immediately issued an order for the whole city to enter a state of emergency combat readiness.

Leiming Port has already started to implement militarized management, and the current promotion to combat readiness is nothing more than an order. All citizens are aware of the current situation, and no one will object to such an arrangement.

These days, Redding has been wanting to recruit some talents. The outside of the political center and the bulletin board of the Thunder Sword have already posted his specific requirements for recruiting personnel of various professions.

Legal professions such as mages, priests, and warlocks are in urgent need. Even elderly apprentices who have been stuck at the white level for many years will have a place in the army resisting Warcraft. In recent days, the recruitment requirements of these legal professions , and even reduced to the point where teenagers who have not found a job can sign up to participate.

A few days ago, Leding issued an order for food rationing. All the private property left by the nobles in the city and the food in the official grain depot were collected for unified management.

And at this moment when the monsters completely besieged the city, the grain merchants were also gathered now, and they were waiting for Leiding's summoning in the hall of the political discussion center.

Redding appeared, wearing the same military uniform, the mottled marks are the glory of the battle, and the bloodstains left on the black hair are a symbol of bravery - these are the commemorations left in the battle against the monsters.

Since entering the city, Lading has been busy with tedious political affairs. He has even forgotten the basic requirements of nobles who maintain their appearance. Otherwise, with Ladding's usual style, he will definitely use cleaning techniques to improve personal hygiene. just appeared in public.

"Everyone is a grain merchant in the city. You have also seen the occurrence of this animal swarm. The situation is extremely tense. We may face a few months or even longer siege. The grain reserves in the city are insufficient, so your hands All the stored food, except for your own use, will be confiscated in the name of Leiming Port’s acting governor.”

Ledding came up and stated the topic straightforwardly, and without consulting the grain merchants, he issued a grain call-up order.There was no room for maneuver in the tone, it was completely commanding.

"My lord, you can't do this. We are grain merchants, but these things are our private property. You can take them if you want, but there must be collateral." A red-nosed guy called out—it was Richard, A large grain merchant who once refused to deliver tens of thousands of gold coins and evacuated with the speaker.At this time, he waved his arms in an attempt to attract the attention of the acting governor.

"Of course, I will never take your things in vain. All the existing properties and land deeds of the evacuated nobles are collateral. If Thunder Port does not have enough gold coins to pay, then after the beast tide is over, these things will be yours! "

While talking, Leding threw a stack of house deed and land deed documents on the table in front of him, with a casual attitude as if what he threw was not the commercial real estate in the noble neighborhood, but the garbage land in the slums .

If the city is captured, the food will be nothing like the land. However, if the city is defended, the value of the land in the center of the city will definitely be more valuable than the food that Laidin wants to conscript.

The things on the desk shocked the nerves of the businessmen. They all opened their mouths and stood there in a daze. Their usually sharp-tongued temperament was overwhelmed by the huge wealth that fell from the sky at this moment.

"Praise you! Your Excellency the Governor of Hong Kong!"

"Your mind is as wide as the sea! Thank you for your gift!"

"Ah! Your Excellency the benevolent Governor of Hong Kong, your generosity is like a gift from the Dragon God! Thank you, thank you, the mother of the Dragon God."

It took several seconds for this situation to be accepted by the stunned merchants. Driven by their interests, they all expressed their blessings to Lading. There was a lot of noise in the hall, and there was naturally no problem with the food collection order. .

On the material form given by Laiding, all grain merchants have filled in the location of the grain storage and the quantity of grain stored.

The next step is the specific issue of the distribution of spoils among the grain merchants. As soon as they got the land deed given by Lading, everyone gathered in a chaotic group, arguing about how to carry out the specific distribution.

Only Li Cha did not participate in it, but walked in front of Leiding.

"Master Governor, I am the representative of the grain merchants in Leiming Port. I don't know where the grain you want to collect needs to be stored? I will let my people be responsible for transporting it!"

Li Cha saw that Leiding still maintains the principle of fair trade at such a moment. He felt that such a lord is a trustworthy object. If he can maintain a good relationship with the lord, then the future business... decided to continue in Thunder Port After developing, Li Cha immediately eagerly sought the Lord Lord's opinion.

The red-nosed guy confidently expressed his intimacy in front of Ledding, his eyes stared at Ledding all the time, and his eager eyes expressed his heartfelt feelings.

"Oh, you are so enthusiastic and willing to take the initiative to contribute to Thunder Port. Then, are you interested in being my internal affairs officer?" Laiding has been worrying about the recent tedious affairs, and now there is such a businessman who is willing to do it for him. He shared his worries, and he would never let such a talent go.

"Internal Affairs Officer?" Li Cha was stunned for a moment, and repeated what Lading had said. He couldn't believe that the Acting Governor of Hong Kong would actually throw out such a lucrative job and let him take it on.

"Of course, it's the internal affairs officer who has complicated things. You must know that as a mage, I am very busy. Besides, the defense of the entire city must be dealt with in time. Now the internal affairs of the civil affairs are in a mess."

"Ah, Your Excellency the Governor of Hong Kong, of course the humble Richard is willing to serve you! I can win your favor, and I will definitely go all out to organize the internal affairs of Thunder Port, and I will never let you spend any more effort on this." Li Cha's red nose was trembling slightly at this moment, and sweat was leaking out of excitement.

Today must be your lucky day!When meeting such a simple and honest nobleman, he didn't rob him of his hard-earned property, and even arranged for him to take over the position of internal affairs officer. You know, this position is a ladder to the status of nobility!And in the current situation of Leiming Port, such a position of real power is simply under one person and above ten thousand people!

When dealing with internal affairs, if you use a little bit of hands and feet, then... hum, there are so many benefits!

The huge pie that fell from the sky made Li Cha dizzy. He was agitated for a moment, and he couldn't hide the greedy look in his eyes.

Laiding saw Li Cha's expression in his eyes, and was not dissatisfied, but just expressed his plan lightly.

"If you agree, I will be very happy to announce that Port Thunder has a new internal affairs officer. But I have something to say before, the internal affairs officer of Port Thunder is not a fat job, if you don't do it well and cheat ——Mages will not be soft on liars, I have killed hundreds of monsters!"

On the opposite side, Li Cha's face immediately turned pale when he heard Laiding's warning words. He had just been shocked by the huge fantasy of power, and was actually blinded by greedy desire, trying to cheat in front of the Master Mage.

"Oh my God, I must have been possessed by a demon just now, and I actually wanted to play tricks in front of the mage. I'm not tired of it yet!" Li Cha felt uneasy in his heart. A powerful mage can directly detect all lies.

Li Cha carefully looked at the Governor of Hong Kong in front of him. At this moment, Redding was no longer a simple and honest nobleman in his eyes, but a powerful mage lord.The iron law of the Enfas Continent made Li Cha sober. It's not that the lord can't take the property of the grain merchants by force, it's just that the mage's self-esteem makes the lord disdain it.

What worries Li Cha even more is that the lord is definitely not an indecisive and soft-hearted person. He has seen Laiding's killing decision before. To deceive such a lord is courting death!

Li Cha shivered, fearing that the mage lord opposite would throw him a storm of flames and wipe him out.Today's evening, the scene of the huge transport convoy entering the city came to Li Cha's mind.Lord Lord's powerful performance, and his ruthless methods against monsters...

Seeing Li Cha's flustered expression in front of him and the sweat constantly appearing on his forehead, Ledding knew that this guy was really scared.

Under absolute strength, if the internal affairs officer really dared to play tricks, then Redding would definitely not mind executing a moth.

"Of course, it is also beneficial to serve as an internal affairs officer accordingly. If Thunder Port can successfully resist the invasion of the beast horde, then it will also have a share as an internal affairs officer for military exploits, at least the title of a lord." Since the warning has been given, the benefits are also Indispensable, only interests can drive human beings to make progress.

"Lord Governor of Hong Kong, I, Li Cha, will swear allegiance to you to the death, follow in your footsteps, and complete the important task of defending Thundering Port." As a member of the nobility, then even death can't stop him!

"Okay, from now on, you are the internal affairs officer of Port Thunder. First of all, what is before you is the problem of this food storage, and how to distribute it to refugees according to the plan. If there is anything unclear In a word, I need all the people in Port of Thunder to follow me willingly to fight against the invasion of monsters without any other worries. Do you understand what I mean?"

"My lord is saying, let me handle the internal problems of the city well, and have a fair and stable internal environment?"

Seeing that the newly appointed internal affairs officer was very smart, Redding nodded in relief, and then handed him a pass token for Port Thunder, so that Richard could have sufficient authority to contact him at any time.

Redding temporarily got rid of those tedious political affairs. Half a month after he took over as acting governor of Hong Kong, he finally had a full-time internal affairs officer. Well, forgive him for not being able to figure out any tricks, as long as he can deal with the beast horde in front of him, the rest will depend on the situation.
