Building a New World

Chapter 1365 Difficulties in Road Laying

After Gais passed away, Megan took over his duties completely.

It must be said that Megan Scholar is not in vain.

Although she has been with Gais for only a little over a month, she has a clear understanding of his way of executing government affairs, and even improved it on this basis to execute it more efficiently.

At the same time, she is also very hardworking in learning the common language of humans. After all, as a prime minister, she has to communicate with civil and military officials, and also listen to the voices of the people in the city. The mastery of language is a very important part.

No one has any doubts about Megan Scholar's ability because of her orc identity. After she took over the job, she immediately used practical actions to tell everyone that the new prime minister is not inferior to the respected Gais.

Because of Gais's death, Jia Zhengjin has been in a bad mood these days.

At the same time, he also learned that the resurrection technique also has a target that cannot be effective, that is, people whose lifespan has reached the end.

He regretted why he had been addicted to the game, and only cared about playing every day, but ignored the people around him.

In fact, if he had given Prime Minister Gais a bottle of life spring water in advance, he could have extended his life and would not have died so soon.

But who would have thought that Prime Minister Gus would pass away so suddenly? He was originally planning to give him the Fountain of Life at the end of the year, according to his merits, and to motivate other civil and military officials.

Who knew that Gus, who usually looked healthy, could not make it to that time...

No matter how I think about it, I feel a little sorry for him.

Although the Fountain of Life is precious, now I have the Tree of Life, which can produce it automatically. Compared to a bottle of Fountain of Life, of course, capable subordinates are the most important!

Tina, Perrin and Christina all know that their husbands blame themselves, so they stay by his side every day to enlighten him.

This day was the same. Jia Zhengjin was not in the mood to go to the underground factory, so he was in a daze in the bedroom.

The three wives also put down their work and stayed by his side, hoping that he could get out of his sadness.

At this moment, Olivia suddenly came to report: "Lord Keane, Prime Minister Megan asked you to go to the palace, saying that there is something important to discuss!"

Hearing the word "Prime Minister", Jia Zhengjin's first reaction was Gus. But he also knew that there would be no Prime Minister Gus in the future, and Megan would be in charge of the city now.

He left the palace with a depressed mood and followed Olivia to the palace.

The three wives immediately followed him.

When they arrived at the palace, they found that Prime Minister Megan was sitting in the position of Prime Minister Gus, and a large number of civil servants were standing quietly on both sides.

Seeing Jia Zhengjin coming, Megan immediately stood up and saluted respectfully with all the civil servants: "Greetings, Lord Keane!!"

"No need to be polite!" Jia Zhengjin nodded slightly and went straight to the throne.

The three wives immediately sat down beside him.

After Jia Zhengjin sat down, all the civil servants sat down one after another. But Prime Minister Megan turned around and faced him closely and bowed his head and said: "Lord Keane, I have something important to report to you!"

"What's the matter? So hurried?" Jia Zhengjin sighed and asked with his head tilted.

"Report to Lord Keen!" Megan took out a stack of documents and presented them respectfully, "It's about the policy you formulated before, which is now facing considerable resistance."

"My policy?" Jia Zhengjin took the document in confusion and glanced at it casually.

The document wrote about the popularization project of cement roads, and each sheet was the current progress of the project in different countries and regions.

"Lord Keen, you formulated a policy before, wanting to promote cement roads throughout the continent and connect all ethnic groups and national transportation routes." Megan said seriously, "At that time, we had already sent people to various countries and ethnic groups to communicate. As a result, so far, although about half of the countries and ethnic groups are willing to cooperate, nearly half of them strongly refuse!"

"Oh? There is such a thing?" Jia Zhengjin frowned, "Why? Paving cement roads is also beneficial to all countries.

Convenient transportation can make the country's economy better. How can anyone refuse? Do they have any opinions about my Holy Dragon City or me? Don't believe me?"

"No!" Megan replied immediately, "These countries and ethnic groups absolutely respect and admire you, Lord Keen."

"Then why..."

"Because everyone Different countries have different national conditions and face different difficulties! "Megan replied, "Of course, the cost of paving cement roads cannot be paid entirely by our Holy Dragon City, and for small countries, this is a considerable burden. Especially after the two battles between the Sea Clan and the Dark Dragon, those small and medium-sized countries were seriously injured. Therefore, a large part of them cannot agree due to funding issues. "

"So that's it!" Jia Zhengjin nodded, "Then this part can be funded by our Holy Dragon City to build the road. Help them restore their economy, and then repay them according to a certain percentage of interest! We can also ask them for the management rights of those sections of the road and collect tolls directly from passers-by. "

Originally, other countries funded the construction of cement roads by themselves, and the management fees of the sections were collected by their own people. But for those who can't pay, Jia Zhengjin doesn't mind using this method instead.

"Then we send people to contact the other party according to these conditions?" Megan asked.

"That's right! The most important thing now is to build cement roads in all areas to make transportation more convenient!" Jia Zhengjin said, "If you have difficulties, you can explain them to us in detail. If you can help, we will fully cooperate with you in the case of obtaining certain benefits!"

"Yes!" Megan nodded in response, and then said, "In addition to those that have been shelved due to funding issues, there are also some countries and regions that have refused due to geographical issues, customs, or political factors. The envoys we sent have not received any response so far. So I would like to ask Lord Keane how to deal with it!"

"The envoys haven't come back yet?" Jia Zhengjin asked doubtfully, "How many such areas are there?"

"Thirty or forty!" Megan replied, "Do we need to send more envoys over?"

"This..." Jia Zhengjin hesitated. After all, the manpower for the city construction of Shenglong City is still very tight. And the envoys didn't come back, so something must have happened. In this case, sending more envoys would probably be futile.

"It's meaningless to send an envoy!" Perrin said expressionlessly, "We must find out what happened in these areas!"

"Yes!" Megan nodded and replied, "So I have a suggestion. It is not convenient for us in Shenglong City to send strong people directly. After all, our own construction is more important. But we can pay to hire mercenaries and let them investigate on our behalf! At present, Shenglong City has established a mercenary union, and many mercenary groups have settled in, including some with good reputations. We can hire them directly!"

"This is a good idea!" Tina said quickly, "By the way, Keane, why don't we go out for a walk? I see that you have been depressed recently because of the death of Prime Minister Geis. Going out for a walk may make you feel better, and it can also solve some problems!"
