Chapter 142
Less than half of the hour required by Fang Xing had passed.

Everyone is ready, holding the written materials in their hands.Different from the lazy atmosphere in the meeting room in the past, everyone sat in a row and waited for Fang Xing's call.

Fang Xing accepted the documents handed over by the navy in order, and at the same time remembered the names of the people written on each document and the corresponding person in an instant.

After reading, according to the current situation, a rearrangement was made and the task was sent down.

Fang Xing pointed at a person and said, "You are in charge of the supervision of iron mining on Sanfarud Island, and you are in charge of patrolling the surrounding waters. You..."

Because the arrangement was based on the past experience and areas of expertise of the navy, no one objected, but showed approval, and the sense of identity with the officer Fang Xing also deepened.

When it was Ulea's turn, Fang Xing jumped over.

Ulea couldn't help asking: "I don't know what my mission is?"

"Your task will be exempted. I think you have to be considerate of you when you are old. It is not good to be too tired."

Everyone can tell that this sentence is a lie. Although Uriah looks a little older, she is actually less than fifty years old. For the navy, she is an experienced veteran, and she will not be able to do anything in any job. He is inferior to others, not to mention that Major Levi is older than Lieutenant Colonel Uriah. If you are considerate of the old man, why did he arrange tasks for him.

But after Barlow's incident, no one dares to stand out now.

"No, my body is still strong. As I said before, my crippled body still contributes to justice." Uriah said.At this time, he can't really process documents in the office, so that people will gradually forget about him in the army, and it is equivalent to losing to the new Colonel Fang Xing, and his subordinates who originally favored him will change their minds.

Fang Xing thought for a while and asked, "I remember that you wrote that you are familiar with the surrounding terrain, and you are also very familiar with the internal environment of the island."

"Yes, I have been in the navy here for more than [-] years, so I am naturally familiar with the surrounding terrain and the interior of the island. I think I can be responsible for the security of the surrounding area."

Fang Xing shook his head, "I have a more important task for you."

More important tasks?Ulea was stunned. Is there any task more important than the security of the surrounding area?It should not exist.

Soon Fang Xing revealed the answer.

"Since you are familiar with the terrain, I will leave my diet to you. You will be responsible for helping me buy nearby delicacies. Remember not to leave the water meat in the capital of water and the lobster risotto in San Pobla. As for Bailey If so, let’s go from the base, if you want to come to a naval base, it’s impossible to even pay for the colonel’s meals.”

Everyone present was stunned.

Although I already knew that the new Colonel Fang Xing was an arrogant and unreasonable person, I never thought that Lieutenant Colonel Uriah would be asked to do that kind of errand work, and he would openly say that he had embezzled the funds of the base.

Ulea's face was also flushed with embarrassment and anger, but he still complied, "Since it's the colonel's order, then I will follow it."

This reaction was beyond everyone's expectations, including Fang Xing of course.He didn't expect Ulea to have the courage to run errands. Even if he refused at this moment, no one said anything. After all, it was just his unreasonable request.

After the task arrangement was over, everyone in the meeting room dispersed, each busy with their new work.

Two weeks passed in a flash.

In an office, a navy man walked in and reported: "Colonel Fang Xing, this is the transaction information collected from the surrounding area."

"Okay, just put it by my desk." Fang Xing replied while looking down at the document.

"Yes!" Haijun put the documents by the table, saluted respectfully, and then withdrew.

In two weeks, Fang Xing's sharp and effective way of handling things made everyone gradually recognize him, not out of fear.Especially those admirals who had re-arranged their work tasks, after realizing that the task efficiency had improved, they understood the reason for Fang Xing's deployment of tasks.

Fang Xing, who was processing the documents at hand, sighed, and things were far more complicated than he thought.For data files, although he can see the results at a glance, the difficulty is not about such things, but about other things.

The navy is not only responsible for the protection of law and order, but also includes disputes on the island, commodity bargaining, business gatherings, taxes, and other issues that require the navy to take care of. It's like acting as a nanny.

Throwing aside the quickly processed documents, he took the materials from the table and read them.

Sure enough, the problem was still the same—the price was wrong. Compared with Tom's previous price, even if there was a change, it would not produce such a big change, which was about [-]% higher than the expected price.This kind of price change will only happen when there is a shortage of goods, but judging from the information in hand, there is no shortage of iron ore, but there is a surplus.

Then there is only one possibility!
Merchants banded together to drive up prices.

Fang Xing couldn't help frowning, thinking about countermeasures.Is it necessary to use violent means to bring businessmen into submission?But even if violence is used, as long as these businessmen can't learn enough lessons, such a high interest is enough to make them repeat the same mistakes and raise prices again.

Called in a navy from outside and ordered: "Call Major Levi."

After a while, Levi came in, saluted respectfully, and asked, "Is there anything Colonel Fang Xing wants from me?"

"I'm going out to investigate some intelligence, and you will help watch over this base for the time being."

Levi was shocked when he heard the words, and he was a little happy that Fang Xinghui trusted him so much, but he still replied: "This is not in compliance with the rules. Normally, Lieutenant Colonel Ulea, who is a high-ranking military officer, is in charge."

"Him? I don't worry. Things are already busy enough. Wouldn't it be even busier if another one came over?"

Levi couldn't understand, "Lieutenant Colonel Uriah has always been on the neutral side. He will not favor anyone or help anyone. He has always enforced the law impartially. I believe he can do a good job."

Although during these days, Fang Xing asked Lieutenant Colonel Uriah to run errands, but with Uriah's character, he probably wouldn't care about a child.

He is a straightforward person, and also a person who is easy to be deceived - Fang Xing has made an evaluation of Levi, and he doesn't hate this kind of person.

He reminded Levi, "Sometimes what you see on the surface is not necessarily true."

"What you see on the surface is not necessarily true?" Levi murmured with his head down, trying to figure out the meaning in Fang's jargon.

Fang Xing didn't wait for him to come up with a result, picked up the wooden blade beside him, jumped out of the window, and disappeared.
