Mage with knife

"Senior Barty, haven't you heard? Seven days ago, at the Cultivator Academy in Trust City, two more instructors advanced to advanced cultivators, one a magician and the other a warrior."

Of course Barty knows.

"Many of the senior cultivators who came out of the cultivator academy in Trust City are interested in civil administration. And Trust City has no shortage of senior cultivator managers at all, or in other words, there is no place for them in Trust City. Lord Dick hopes that I will come early

The new city lord of the big city has taken office, and I’m taking a few with him by the way, haha!”

Gao Shun has followed Dick for many years and knows Dick well.

"Gao Shun, that's wrong. When Campbell took over as the city lord, why didn't Dick support the two senior cultivators as helpers?" Barty asked.

"Senior Batty, that's different. I'm familiar with City Lord Dick. As for Campbell... To be honest, from the beginning when he took over Persia City, Lord Dick didn't want to see him. Although Campbell has great feelings for Persia City,

, Campbell still criticized some of the changes made by City Lord Dick.

Fortunately, there was old Peter in Persia, so Campbell didn't dare to bare his teeth.

How could City Lord Dick let that idiot Campbell take away the high-level cultivator talents that the Cultivator Academy of Trust City has worked so hard to cultivate? Wouldn't that delay the continuous cultivation of talents?"

Gao Shun's tone was also full of disdain for Campbell. Again, you Campbell don't have the ability to convince others.

Having said that, as long as Dick doesn't want to transfer people, wouldn't it be over if Holy Island just transfers people?

This is not in line with the rules and traditions. The Holy Island only transfers people at the level of the city lord. Other high-level cultivators are very voluntary. In the past, there were still many high-level cultivators in the big cities along the Arctic Sea. Many

If you don't want to be a guest elder in the big city, the Holy Island doesn't have the right to force you to do so.

"Senior Barty, actually, I really don't want to leave. When I arrived in Nerchinsk City, I personally felt the overpopulation and the decay of the system. I think other big cities are probably like this. They are lifeless and there is no hope."

Gao Shun continued.

"But, Gao Shun, people have to do things, right?"

"Is it really useful? I'm afraid that if I don't do well in a new city, I'll just follow the crowd. Isn't that what Campbell is like? If you can't fight, you just compromise. What happens after you compromise? Just follow the crowd. Anyway, everyone is just waiting to die.

Haha!" Gao Shun had a wry smile on his face.

Do you really think that reform is that easy? If you don’t do it well, you will fall into it yourself. So what if Dick supports Gao Shun’s two helpers? Without Dick’s platform behind him, are local forces so easy to deal with?

When Martial, Senna, and Lopez went to the city of Rwanda, the three artistic elite masters, weren't they being played around by local forces? Then the Dark Knife organization seized the opportunity and set off a horrific civil strife, which even the city of Rwanda was lost.

.

Managing a big city is not simply about suppressing combat power. It is very troublesome to straighten out various relationships.

Now Martial, Senna, and Lopez can do well in Rwanda City. It is probably because they have compromised with the local forces. The consequence of the compromise is... everyone is almost the same, let's hang out together.

Listening to Gao Shun's in-depth analysis, Barty was also at a loss. Especially when Gao Shun used Campbell, Martial, Senna, and Lopez as examples, it was completely realistic.

There is a reason why Gao Shun doesn't want to fly solo. Gao Shun doesn't want to follow the trend and sincerely wants Snow people to really develop. However, if he can't hold on, Gao Shun will also fall.

"Gao Shun, what suggestions do you have?" Batty is a saint, but that doesn't mean he is good at management, right?

"Senior Barty, actually, you don't have to worry about City Lord Dick rebelling, right?"

"Gao Shun, what are you talking about? Damn it! When did Holy Island suspect that Dick would rebel?" Batty was so angry.

"Senior Batty, what else is difficult to do? The Holy Island is not good at the new management model, but City Lord Dick is good at it, so just imitate the Persian City little by little and be done with it?"

"What do you mean?"

"For example, in the cities of Trust and Persia, Lord Dick broke the original administrative model. In the past, the outer city was the management unit; now, the province is the management unit, and one province has several outer cities under its jurisdiction.

.”

"Then what?"

"Holy Island can refer to this model and group several large cities into one large area, and then it will be unified under the jurisdiction of Lord Dick. With the current strength of Trust City, there will be no problem in managing four or five large cities.

In the future, if there are more senior cultivators graduating from the Cultivator Academy in Trust City, and the area managed by City Lord Dick will have one or two more big cities..."

I wiped it! In this case, wouldn't all the outer cities along the Arctic Sea be annexed by the Trust City sooner or later? Is it possible? Dick is going to be a king.

"Senior Barty, you don't have to worry at all. Aren't all the senior practitioners who graduated from the Cultivator Academy in Trust City all Snow people? Haha!" Gao Shun said with a smile.

That seems to be the case.

The cultivator academy in Trust City continues to blossom and bear fruit, and aren't the people who thrive the most?

The conversation between the two people was considered confidential and could not be disclosed to anyone, not even Dick.

As for Gao Shun's suggestion, Batty can only give it back to Holy Island, he can't decide. Of course, there is no rush for this kind of thing. After all, there is only one Gao Shun in Trust City who meets the requirements of the alternative city leader.

.Gao Shun had not been in Nerchinsk City for long, so he was not in such a hurry to leave.

To be honest, Dick doesn't have that much on his mind right now. Dick's thoughts are all on improving his magic skills. Fortunately, Dick's mentality is still good. The one-month retreat period is fixed, and he doesn't mean to rush it.

"The spies of the Dark Knife organization are here again? Haha!" Dick laughed. These people from the Dark Knife organization are really persevering and will take advantage of opportunities when they see them.

"Yes, you launched a killing spree in the territory of the Eskis, and the Dark Knife organization thought it had another opportunity." Old Peter said, "Gerrard and Lampard are not bad. They were established by the Eskis themselves.

The inner guards cooperated well with our Persian city inner guards and tracked down many Eski traitors."

"Well, it was originally expected that there would be hundreds of thousands of Eskis, but now there are more than 300,000. It is estimated that the great migration of these Eskies was instigated by the traitors of the Dark Knife organization. If there is no instigator, why

Maybe there are so many more Eskies in a month?" Dick was not stupid.

"What does Old Peter, Gerrard, Lampard mean?"

"Play hard to get or kill him in time, it all depends on your wishes, Lord City Lord."

"Okay, a lot of Eskis have been killed, so that's about it. We really have to wait until these traitors start a riot, and more Eskies will be involved."

"I understand, Dick, what you mean is to do it now."

"Let Gerrard and Lampard take the lead. Since they are doing well, I still believe in them." Dick himself has no prejudice against the Eskis, but he has seen the Eskis being bullied by the nobles.

Just people.
