Chapter 244 The real elites
This time, Li Ke did not wait too long. Whether it was Mr. Lynes or the secretaries and ministers of the family owner, they quickly gathered a large number of manpower to prepare to take over the city stopped by plants. And as expected,
There are smart people who want to escape from the city at this time, but without exception, every one of them is firmly tied up by the plants that suddenly appear on the edge of the city, and sent to a place that has begun to recover.
The cell of order.
The first to be unblocked were the soldiers of the secret forces. They gave up their resistance under the persuasion of the secretaries and ministers, and were temporarily commanded by Lynes and others, and took to the streets together with the useless policemen to maintain the
To maintain public security, and inform the confused and frightened civilians of the fact that times in Piltover have changed, allowing them to stay at home with peace of mind and wait for the next arrangements.
Due to lack of manpower, Li Ke had to hire some people who had not actually participated in the persecution, such as so-called elites like Bernard, as his secretaries. And he came back with a bunch of rude crew members.
Lady Sarah also gained some nice positions for her and her crew: Commander of Piltover's maritime defense and fleet.
As well as several magical wooden boats close to 200 meters long that Li Ke promised.
But that's the extent of it. Although the person she brought over could not stand up to the bully, it also had little to do with the word good person. So Li Ke pointed out an actual official position to Sarah, and did not
The person she was brought to was not given any important position, but was given certain rights to Sarah and allowed to do it on her own.
But Sarah's help is limited to this. Although she is the future pirate empress, her ability to take over Pi City's navy may be somewhat insufficient now. Those old foxes will definitely follow her orders and use her orders.
Misinterpretation in various ways. So Li Ke estimates that he still needs to help her solve some of the troubles, so that Miss Good Luck can truly control Pi City's navy for him and become a force that he can use.
But more troublesome things require [ www.xbqg5200.info] his handling.
"Open the granaries of various noble families, distribute food, and don't let people starve to death before we restore order in this city. Do you understand? Bernard, if someone causes trouble, then everyone responsible for this will be hanged."
...Also, Mr. Harker, I want to know why I saw a large number of artillery approval records in the document, but I didn't see those powerful artillery in the battle with those armies or on the city wall.
Where’s the device?”
Li Ke sat in the square at the junction of Zaun and Pi City. After inspecting the city wall with only sparse cannons, he first gave Bernard instructions on his preparations for these civilians, and then turned his head and looked at a group of people.
A 'young' man who was about forty years old and had short hair asked his question. And this man, who was also wearing a suit-like dress and always had a smile on his face, after Li Ke asked his question
, answered Li Ke's question with another question in a gentle and sincere tone.
"About this, sir, who do you think the cannons we have placed on the city walls are used to defend against?"
Li Ke frowned. He hated this kind of gentleman with rich experience in fooling around and officialdom. So he stretched out his hand, and Bernard on the side immediately handed over the paper with Mr. Hank's accusations written on it, and
He silently prayed to his senior who worked in the Security Bureau of Pi City.
"Let's see, treason, corruption, threatening competitors, and loan sharking. It's really interesting. You haven't even killed anyone with your loan sharking. Can you tell me why?"
Li Ke was a little surprised, because this gentleman was neither involved in the gang industry, nor had any experience in persecuting low-level civilians. What he did was the most worthy of hanging, which was just loan sharking, and it was not the kind of nine-in-one act.
Shisangui's loan sharking is a 'high-interest' loan for apprentices. Among the evidence collected so far, he is considered a relatively clean person: because those who have not repaid their debts were not forced to die by him.
Instead, he hired me with the important persuasive reason of "working for me will postpone the increase of interest".
"Ah, because the most precious wealth in this world is human beings, my husband, I think you are very aware of this, right? Otherwise I wouldn't be here, but would be hanged directly by you, or sent to prison
Go to jail and wait for trial."
He paused.
"So, I only lend money to those who have potential. If they can repay the money I loaned them through work and invention after studying. Then I will not only make a lot of money, but also get a capable person.
I am very grateful. And those people I misjudged also have the most basic working ability and can work in my store to pay back the money. I can get a group of employees who are above the standard."
Smiling slightly, this man with almost no flaws continued.
"What's more, how much money do those poor people who are really reduced to abject poverty have? What capital can they have to repay my money? Only smart and capable people can invest, right?"
Li Ke was stunned for a moment, first carefully looked at the person who theoretically managed all security affairs in Pi City, and then shook his head.
"If I were not really short of people, sir, just with these remarks and your speculative skills, I would have hanged you. Well, back to the topic, of course I know what you are preparing the cannon for.
It was used to defend against the Noxians, but these cannons did not appear on the walls of Piltover, so as a trusted ruler, I need to know the whereabouts of these cannons."
He is now accepting all the armaments in this city, so he will ask about the whereabouts of these cannons, which are large in number on paper. After all, even if he himself is not afraid of shelling or anything, the civilians below, as well as Sarah and the others, are
This is not the case, so the whereabouts of these missing equipment must be found out. However, in response to his question, Mr. Hack just shook his head helplessly, and then spread his hands.
"Well, sir, no offense, but I have to tell you that the Noxians will not attack us until the war is over, so..."
He lowered his voice.
"... Just make the people believe that they are protected."
After finishing speaking, the gentleman showed an awkward yet polite smile to Li Ke, and took out a document from his arms and handed it to Li Ke.
"There are many things like this, so I have specially prepared a list of equipment for you to ensure that you don't have to worry about equipment that does not exist. And if you still want to know about equipment that does not exist,
The true whereabouts of the equipment that disappeared after appropriating funds.”
He spread his hands and his expression became helpless and serious.
