Gold is Justice

Cream snorted and gritted his teeth.

Dak looked at the citizens behind him and said, "Anyway, this is a problem that our president needs to face. Don't worry, the president is fine."

When everyone was silently watching the girl on the stage, the girl took a deep breath as if she had finally realized something, and said slowly——

"The ruins do need to be taken care of. The victims do need to be compensated."

"Mr. Eddie Invincible, since you just said that you came to ask me this question on behalf of the Magic Association. So can I have a discussion with you now?"

Eddie was taken aback for a moment, but immediately, did he feel that he had already gained the upper hand?

The first thousand 230 seven chapters are linked to each other

"What do you want to discuss?"

In this regard, the flame magician opened his mouth.Ariel continued to smile and said: "It's very simple. You can see that our Pelican City will gradually expand in the future, and the situation will become better and better. If you are really worried about the ruins and pensions...then Otherwise, can you agree to open a branch office in our Pelican City in the name of the Magic Association in the future? In this way, the Magic Association can enter our Pelican City openly, and you can live in peace of mind. In a special dormitory, instead of looking for a hotel to live in like now."

"Ah, and, George Peanutton Knight over there, does your Holy See also need to establish a branch in our Pelican City? I believe that the God of Light must also be very concerned about the disaster that our Pelican City encountered. In order to appease the hearts of the people, can you, in the name of the Holy See, promise to donate money to help these believers of God?"

"The above, whether it is the donation from the Magic Association or the donation from the Holy See, I will make good use of these two donations, and then better support the Pelican City. Similarly, I will set aside two pieces in our Pelican City Come to establish branches for the two Holy See and the Association! In this way, some magicians, paladins and priests in our Pelican City can join the Association and the Holy See without having to go all the way to those big cities Only then can it be certified, isn't it?"

For a person, the happiest thing in life is probably spending money.

And there is nothing better than spending money than spending other people's money.

What's even more refreshing is that other people beg you to spend their money, and you don't need to bear any responsibility!

Everyone knows that the ruins of Pelican City and the issue of pensions need to be resolved, and everyone knows that the money must come from Pelican City's financial budget.

But if it comes from the budget, the money spent on other places will naturally be less.

Maybe the ordinary citizens can't feel it yet, but the followers of officials who also work in the city government know it clearly.

But now, their new mayor, even this new mayor who has not yet sworn in and was only recognized 10 minutes ago, is already helping them get money!

Doesn't this style of efficiency make those followers and staff happy?

At least, Round Cheese now has an expression of enlightenment, and he can't help clapping his hands.

"Donate... donate money?"

Eddie, who just felt that he seemed to have the upper hand, suddenly looked like a wilted cucumber, and his face twitched.

On the other hand, George Peanutun immediately jumped up and shouted loudly: "Why do you ask us to donate money?! This is your Pelican City's problem! This is your..."

Words, only half a sentence was spoken.

Before he could finish the second half of his sentence, the paladin immediately noticed the disappointment and doubt in the audience's eyes, which made him shut up immediately and swallowed the words in his heart again.

Eddie Invincible on the side seemed much calmer, and said: "Mayor Ariel, I am happy to help the people of Pelican City. But anyway, the affairs of Pelican City are the affairs of Pelican City, and our association can Help, but it is impossible for us to pay for it? Let’s not talk about this, let’s talk about how much money you plan to spend to solve these problems? Our association can help..."

It's a pity that after entering Ariel's trap, it is not so easy to leave.

Ariel showed a somewhat embarrassed expression on her face, and said, "Let's not talk about Pelican City's financial issues yet. Excuse me... is the Association of Magicians really planning to turn a blind eye to our city? Obviously, the entire Association of Magicians The most elite troops are now in our Pelican City, I always thought you were treating Pelican City as your second home!"

The corners of Eddie's mouth twitched again. He glanced at the people below from the corners of his eyes. After a little hesitation, he gritted his teeth and said, "You...are you really willing to let us settle in? Let us the Magic Association settle in?"

Ariel looked relaxed, and said with a smile: "Of course! If you are willing to support Pelican City, the citizens of Pelican City must think of you well. Since the citizens like you, what do I have to do?" What about opinions?"

Hearing this, the corners of Eddie's mouth twitched again, his hands trembled slowly, and he gritted his teeth: "Then...in that case..."

"Wait a minute!"

George at the back suddenly stretched out his hand, pressed Eddie's trembling fingers, and whispered in his ear——

"Are you crazy?! This woman not only bound our money to her guild, but now she wants to bind the Holy See and the association to her Pelican City! You really thought we donated money, and then put the branch If the organization enters Pelican City, can it control her in reverse? Do you think this woman has never thought about it?!"

This sentence immediately pulled back Eddie's chaotic heart!At that moment, he immediately shook his head, and said decisively: "It's fine if you settle in, but I also need to consider the money, and I need to make a request to the headquarters! But generally speaking——"

"Generally speaking, you still don't want to? Well~~~ Just pretend I didn't say anything."

Ariel would not let him finish all the words, immediately interrupted the conversation, turned around, and walked slowly to the center of the rostrum.

After such a round, Eddie Wudi next to him really suffered from being dumb.He clenched his fists tightly, and some flames are now leaking from between his fingers.

If possible, I believe that what this flame magician wants to do the most is to grab that girl's neck, and quickly burn her beautiful skin to ashes with flames. "Don't worry, don't worry~~~ It's your idea, don't mind it so much. No matter how glib she is, it should be her problem, and she can't escape it."

To Eddie's embarrassment, the idea was indeed his own.But now, the one who was irritated and messed up was himself.It's a shame to even let the guy from the Holy See next to him comfort him!

Eddie snorted, sat down in his seat, and stopped talking.

George laughed, and continued: "That's right! Anyway, we've already decided how to deal with her, so let's let her be proud for a while, and we'll have plenty of time to deal with her later."

The Holy See and the association stopped talking so far, and the topic came back to Ariel on the rostrum.

She glanced at the association and the Holy See over there from the corner of her eyes, and after confirming that they seemed to be no longer making trouble, she breathed a sigh of relief, spread her palms, and quietly wiped the sweat from her palms on the top of her pants.

To be honest, if people from the association and the Holy See were really allowed to enter Pelican City, Ariel really didn't think about how to deal with it for a while.

When the time comes, people will come directly to your gate to monitor you, can this business still be done?

But fortunately, I acted like I really wanted them to come in, which made these two guys panic and retreat decisively.

It's just that bluffing can't always be effective, and we still need to find a way to drive them away safely as soon as possible...

"Well, then, now let's go back to the topic just now."

Ariel imitated round cheese, coughed before speaking, and continued——

"I have indeed considered the issue of ruins and pensions in detail before. I believe that everyone is thinking about how to deal with it now, right? As the newly appointed mayor, it is indeed necessary for me to discuss it with you , How should we deal with this job. Bring all those prisoners!"

Having said that, Ariel waved her hand.Cream, Duck, and Brad, who were the wardens, immediately nodded and turned to leave.Not long after, the three wardens and Ke Ke led the mighty 400 prisoners into the trial square slowly, and sat down in the middle of no one.

Coco waved the wand in his hand, and a large number of guarded undead soldiers stood around these prisoners, forming a kind of vigilance.And these prisoners are also looking at the people sitting in the stands all around in fear, all of them lowered their heads, worrying about their future fate.

After the prisoners came in, the citizens in the stands immediately became excited.

They scolded these deranged prisoners, and some even picked up the garbage they had in hand and threw it at them.Fortunately, the defense of those undead soldiers was in place, so that the prisoners inside were not smashed to death.

"Mayor Ariel! What does this mean?! Why are you still protecting these prisoners?!"

"Yes! That's right! Let's kill them! Make them pay for what they did!"

"Kill them all! Kill them all! Bury them alive! Cut off their hands! Cut them in half! Cut off their eyes and noses! Kill them!"

"These inhuman demons! The accomplices of these demons!"

Facing such a group of angry citizens, Ariel did not speak up immediately.

She was just waiting... and soon, her waiting was answered.

"Silence, silence!"

It was not someone else who spoke, but another small platform on the east side of the platform in the entire square.

Now, three desks are built on this platform.And the voice that just shouted came from the one in the middle of this desk - the crisp tower.

At this moment, Suta was wearing a long black dress with the pelican bird and the balance badge of the coal mine pinned to his chest.Somewhat surprisingly, the bangs that originally covered her face were all combed back, revealing her dark eyes and fair skin.

However, when everyone turned their eyes to her, the human judge was obviously shy, his face flushed, and he shrank his head back.

The first thousand and 230 eight chapters are open and fair

"These prisoners will be sentenced by us."

When Suta lowered his head and dared not speak, a citrus tree grew rapidly on another table!These trunks intertwine with each other, culminating in a prominent orange-yellow seat in the centre.The judge of the flower goblin is also sitting on the rattan seat now, with a smile unique to the flower goblin on his face, and continued to say——

"If anyone is dissatisfied with our trial, it's fine. You can come to us to argue later. But before that, if anyone wants to disrupt court discipline, don't blame me for being rude!"

As soon as the words fell, the flower fairy flung out her hand.A vine whip was also thrown out in conjunction with the movement of her palm, making a loud "pop" in the air.

"Similarly, since I am the judge of this court, it is my job to maintain order in this court."

After Citrus finished speaking, the one-eyed man on the other side also rubbed his hands, and said slowly——

"You may feel that it is daytime and you can do something under my hands. But if you really want to try this, I assure you, you will definitely regret it. Definitely."

Humans have always feared power.

In particular, it is the power that will be afraid of the power that I have personally experienced.As the three judges showed their attitudes, the audience who were still noisy just now finally calmed down slowly.It's just that they still maintain that skeptical attitude on their faces, and all of them show full distrust.

Think about it carefully, after all, who in this world is so kind to prisoners?It is to give the prisoners good food and drink, and to hold card games for these prisoners, and to talk to them.Even the warden sat with the prisoners and played around.

No matter who sees such a scene, it already fully shows that Song of the Mermaid has worn a pair of pants with these prisoners, right?

Ariel's eyes swept across the audience again.Of course, she also understood the resentment in the hearts of these citizens, and understood their dissatisfaction.

However, instead of spending time arguing with your mouth, show your sincerity with your actions.

In this world, only action is the real way to change something.

"Now, our prisoners are all seated, please sit down first. Then, let me talk about my thoughts now."

Ariel stretched out her hand and flicked her fingers towards the bottom of the rostrum.

Afterwards, several flower elves, mainly Buffy, flew up slowly with a scroll, and put the scroll in Ariel's palm.

"Thank you, then, let me talk about it now. I want to show you some statistics I have made these days. I believe this will be very useful for you to understand."

Ariel opened the scroll in her hand, nodded silently, and began to say——

"First of all, let's talk about the clearing of the ruins."

"During this period of time, I measured the area of ​​the ruins in detail. The ruins are located at the largest road entrance and exit on the east side of our Pelican City, spreading almost one-fifth of the city. Most of the buildings have been burned, only Some of the remaining buildings have not been completely reduced to ashes, but because of damage, they cannot continue to be used and need to be demolished and rebuilt.”

"During these times, some of the ruins have been cleaned up, but not fast enough. Some of the structures are likely to collapse, so cleaning up requires professional people and professional tool technology. For this reason, I asked about the people in our Pelican City A group of artisans. They made a series of detailed lists for me. Buffy, continue."

As Ariel finished speaking, Buffy and some flower fairies flew up to the rostrum with a large piece of cloth, and opened it behind Ariel.

On the above, there are many detailed bills and expenses recorded in detail.

Ariel stretched out her hand, pointed at the list behind her that covered the entire curtain, and said slowly——

"The props needed for cleaning up costs include dustpans, trash cans, landfills, shovels used for digging landfills and cleaning, gloves used for work, clothing for body protection, three meals a day for staff, etc. It's all written on this curtain behind me. And then there's this reconstruction fee. Go ahead."

The flower fairies delivered a large curtain again and opened it, which included the construction cost of the city and the planning part of the city.

Ariel continued without changing her expression: "These are the expenses that the carpenters paid for the construction of my urban area. I asked our hardworking craftsmen about this price list, and they agreed that I would publish it."

"Now, please take a look. Since this is a large project, the cost of a single building only needs to be about 70.00% of that of building a single house in the past. In fact, this is the limit of the price I can suppress .Further down, our craftsmen probably have the heart to kill me."

Ariel raised her hand and gave a thumbs up to the artisans including whiskey and polyester in the spectator seats, making a comparison to express her gratitude.And those craftsmen groups were as excited as ordinary citizens, but now they are openly praised, and each of them can't help showing a little smug and proud expression on their faces.
