Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

Watching the little brother in front of him be subdued by his demeanor, Wu Sheng didn't feel a trace of joy on his face.

Too many... he had seen too many people like this.

"Now that you understand, then fully cooperate with me. Let's each do our jobs. Are there enough people in Holy City right now?"

Lai Gou'er nodded: "There are enough people. Master Wu can rest assured on this point. Our several projects can be started at the same time."

Previously, during the Holy City unrest, although a large number of poor people came out to rob and cause trouble, only a small number of people actually benefited and could go enjoy life.

The vast majority of people just got a little something and still had to find opportunities to work.

If you want to build houses, it is enough to have a group of people who understand the technology lead others to work together.

As for ship repairs, Da Jing also has craftsmen who specialize in maintaining ships.

It is not difficult to transform existing large merchant ships into the kind of luxury yachts that Master Wu requires.

"Master Wu, what other requirements do you have? I'll coordinate them for you first."

Wu Sheng thought for a while and said, "I need a translator assistant to accompany me, preferably someone who is clever, eager to learn, and familiar with the local customs."

Lai Gou'er immediately said: "No problem! A deputy of mine is quite clever. Master, please come back to Holy Temple Mountain with me first, and I will bring him to meet you, and also arrange your accommodation."

"By the way, there's one more thing. Before I came out, Lord Marquis asked me to ask you how the coffee shop and oral liquid preparation are going?"

Lai Gou'er briefly recalled: "It's being worked on, but things have been very busy recently. It should be up and running in a while."

Wu Sheng nodded, and the two of them immediately went out and returned to Holy Temple Mountain.

Inside the Holy Temple Mountain office, Wu Sheng and Lai Gou'er were still discussing the details while holding documents.

Before long, a young man in his twenties appeared in the room, curiously looking at Wu Sheng.

Lai Gou'er immediately pulled him to his side and introduced him to Wu Sheng: "Master, this is the deputy assigned to you. This kid usually performs quite cleverly, and he is proficient in Spanish. You can just tell him whatever you need."

Wu Sheng looked at the young man for a moment and said with satisfaction: "Yes, not bad. He looks quite clever. What's your name?"

The young man stood up straight: "Luo Yide!"

Lai Gou'er said with a smile: "Master, this kid's name sounds a bit like a foreigner's name. Many people misunderstand him as a local when they hear his name."

"Xiao Luo! From now on, learn from Master Wu. The master has profound knowledge! Even a few words from him are enough for you to learn for a lifetime! Now, quickly accompany Master Wu to find accommodation and take good care of him!"

"Yes!" Xiao Luo said respectfully, guiding Wu Sheng to find accommodation.

Not long after, Pope Soljay pushed open the door and walked in, looking exhausted.

Seeing Lai Gou'er, he said weakly: "Lord Lai, is there anything you need from me? I'm still preaching."

Lai Gou'er sighed: "Father... no, you are the Pope now. You should act like a Pope when you are the Pope. Why are you still doing the work of a priest, running around every day? You should be managing now. Doing everything yourself will exhaust you."

"Besides, if you do it like this, who will obey you? Maintain some distance from them, rebuild the church order as soon as possible, and stabilize the foundation is the top priority."

Pope Soljay sat down in front of him, picked up the water glass on the table and drank it all.

"I've been doing this for half my life, I'm used to it, I don't think there's anything wrong with it."

"Okay." Lai Gou'er spread his hands and said, "Fortunately I'm here, otherwise it would be a miracle that you could live to this day acting like this."

"I'm here today to notify you of a great happy event."

Pope Soljay raised his head and asked in surprise: "What happy event?"

"Da Jing has sent a group of people to help rebuild Holy City and sort out the order."

"That's great!" Pope Soljay said in surprise.

As Pope, he had no awareness of becoming a leader, and apparently had not yet broken free from the identity of a priest.

"Yes, but there are also things that you need to help with. There are many priests in the city following you, right? I need them to help me collect the Yellow Registers when they are active in Holy City. That is, the specific information and distribution of the number of people in the city, which can also be called household registration."

"At the same time, we will rebuild residences in the slums first, and then allocate or sell houses at a low price according to the household registration."

"This is the plan that I just discussed with the people sent by Da Jing. The first batch of residential areas will be built in the slums of the South City, and the name has also been chosen, it will be called Shuxiang Jiayuan (Scholarly Garden)."

Father Soljay scratched his head and nodded repeatedly while looking at the map: "Very good, very good."

"Also, some important locations in the city need to be built with schools, places for civic activities, hospitals... Take a look and see if you have any objections?"

After reading the locations pointed out by Lai Gou'er, Pope Soljay hesitated: "The others are fine, but the schools... there are many church schools in the city, there is no need to build more, right? Besides, we need to teach theology here...."

"The schools built by Da Jing can also teach theology, you can rest assured on this point. It's just that we considered that a large number of people in the slums have been released, and now there are many more poor children. Church schools may not be enough. We can supplement these three."

"Moreover, they will also teach some unique knowledge from Da Jing, which will be of great benefit to the children of Holy City. They will be fully capable of visiting Da Jing in the future. If you are not at ease, you can lend me a batch of teachers from the church schools. Anyway, the teachers from Da Jing don't speak the local language, so they need to cooperate with each other."

It seems that there is no problem with saying that, that's the way it is.

After careful consideration, Pope Soljay solemnly agreed.

"Okay, it's not a bad thing after all, then you can do it, just say anything you need my help with."

Alright.

Lai Gou'er was delighted in his heart.

Although Soljay's current influence almost all comes from Da Jing, the church represents the entire bottom layer after all.

If he thinks it's not good, and if he doesn't cooperate well in the future, there will inevitably be some problems.

"Good! Since you have agreed, then let's start arranging it today. You arrange the priests, and I will also assign some professional people to you to record the Yellow Registers in the city, and also help us promote the project plan. As for the other engineering matters, just give it all to me. As for the other details, we will discuss it in the next few days."

"No problem."
