There were three main aspects to the slum's governance.

The first was medical care.

The medical facilities in the slum were horrible. Many people could not afford to see doctors after they got sick, so they could try to heal themselves. They could heal themselves if they were lucky. If not, their illness could get worse until they die.

Moreover, poor people who had fallen sick could not work, leading to further poverty and making it a vicious cycle.

The slum's medical facilities naturally became a priority.

Sean and Quentin planned to establish Dorodo Third People's Hospital to increase access to medical care for the poor.

At the same time, medical care should be provided to all those in the slum who earn less than Dorodo's current average monthly salary.

To put it more colloquially, people who earned less than the average monthly salary and lived in the slum could get extra discounts for medical consultations. The poor people in the slum could then afford to get treated and thu

    "Okay, okay, okay, Commander Lennon. Let's have lunch and try my daughter's cooking."Quentin said to Sean with a chuckle.Sean nodded slightly and followed him.The city defense army's main camp.It was dark in the underground jail. Though there were lights in the cells, it was still very dark inside.Three young men were shouting in a cell in the innermost part of the prison.The three young men were none other than Lionel of the Walker family, Solomon of the Stewart family, and Nathan of the Lambert family.These three were locked up in the innermost cell, while the bodyguards were locked up in another.Compared to the bodyguards, the three of them were comfortable.After all, a dozen of them were crammed into one cell, so it was so crowded that they could only sit against the wall. They could not even lie down.The three could lie down, rest, and have room to move around in the cell.Even so, they kept kicking up a fuss."D*mn it! Let us out! We're heirs of noble famili

    "Forget it if you don't believe me. I don't want to waste my time talking to you."The city defense soldier took his flashlight and prepared to leave after saying that.Just then, Solomon suddenly pulled his wallet out of his pocket—When the three were locked up the night before, only their phones were confiscated, denying them access to the outside world. They did not take their other belongings or money."Stop!"Solomon shouted and stopped the city defense soldier.Then he pulled a stack of green cash notes out of his wallet—probably tens of thousands of Union Dollars.Union Dollars was unlike Dragon Dollars.The largest denomination of Dragon Dollar was 100 dollars, also known as a hundred dollar bill.The largest denomination of Union Dollar was 1,000 dollars.100 Union Dollars was equivalent to 150 Dragon Dollars.Thus, the stack of Union Dollar bills was equivalent to tens of thousands of Dragon Dollars."What do you want? Are you trying to bribe me? You're insulting m

    Ian said, "Don't argue with them. They're scoundrels and scumbags. We city defense soldiers aren't scum like them! We must observe discipline and not violate it.""You're right, Sir."The city defense soldier took a deep breath and lowered his head.He was angry, but he knew Ian was right.He must not violate military discipline by hitting a prisoner no matter how angry he was.However, footsteps suddenly came nearer at that time.Besides that, the lights in the underground cell lit up one by one.It was none other than Sean who came to the prison.Sean led the way with Zander at his side, and several city defense soldiers trailed behind them.Seeing the arrival of Sean and the others, Ian quickly stepped forward with the city defense soldier beside him and raised his hands to salute.Sean nodded slightly and planned to walk by when he suddenly noticed the spit on Ian's armor."What's that?"Sean asked, pointing to the spit on Ian's armor.Ian snapped to attention and repo

    "Okay, Donald, you and Ian will punish the three young masters. Give them 40 strokes each."Sean's calm statement made Lionel, Solomon, and Nathan pale dramatically.'40 strokes?'Is that a joke? That can kill us!'Lionel instantly panicked and shouted at Sean, "Who are you to hit us?""I'm the commander-in-chief of the city defense army, and the three of you have just tried to bribe and threaten the city defense soldiers. The punishment for each of these crimes is 20 strokes. The total is 40 strokes."Sean explained with a laugh.As soon as Sean said this, the city defense soldiers behind him pounced on Lionel, Solomon, and Nathan, pinning them to the ground.Sean only continued speaking calmly, "Lionel, Solomon, and Nathan, do you realize I'm here to let you go? To tell you the truth. I don't want to let you go, but you didn't violate Dorodo's laws, and I can't punish you randomly."But you were so uncooperative, trying to bribe and threaten the city defense soldiers. You ha

    Ian and Donald had a blast.They both had long wanted to beat up Lionel, Solomon, and Nathan.However, they had to put up with them because of military discipline.Now, they were free to vent their anger and discontent.These three were normally high and mighty heirs. Their statuses were much higher than the city defense soldiers.They threw their weight around, and nobody could do anything to them.However, these three heirs were now like three poor pests at the mercy of Ian and Donald.40 strokes were finally over.Lionel and Solomon passed out several times but were doused awake with cold water before passing out again.They were dying. It was as if they would die anytime soon.Nathan pinned to the ground nearby was terrified."It's your turn, Young Master Lambert."A smile spread across Ian's bearded face.Half an hour later.Looking at the dying Lionel, Solomon, and Nathan on the ground, Sean said indifferently, "Since we've punished them, send them back to the Walke

    However, he could no longer keep calm.Sean's actions repeatedly disrupted their plans and arrangements, and the three influential families were now suffering huge losses."This can't go on. If we let that Sean do whatever he wants, our families won't have a future in Dorodo!"Cole said exasperatedly."Then tell me what we should do. We have businesses in other cities, but the ones in Dorodo were the biggest. Now that we're restricted in Dorodo, our losses are more than 50%. Can you solve this problem?"Dylan asked in reply.Elijah said nothing. He was deep in thought, trying to figure out what to do next.Cole had no idea what to do. He had never been calculating.Just then, an old man rushed in.The old man was the Walker family's butler."Sir! Sir! We're in trouble! The city defense army has sent Young Master back! The three young masters had been beaten half to death and are now unconscious!"Elijah, Cole, and Dylan's expressions instantly turned ghastly when they heard

    However, such small houses would fit a single family in the slum.Of course, it would be crowded for a family of three or even four to use such a small house.Even so, it was already much better than the houses they used to live in!Once the houses were built, they would be rented to the poor on a monthly basis. After five years of rental, they could buy the house they were renting at a below-market price.Such a policy was a blessing to the slum residents.Besides that, the poor had already found out about Sean's fundraising for them, so Sean's reputation in the slum was at an all-time high.Sean and Zander had just arrived at the slum and were immediately surrounded by a large crowd of poor people."Thank you, Commander Lennon. You saved us all!" An old lady nearly 60 years old said with tears of gratitude."Commander Lennon, you're a saint. You're a kind man!""How wonderful is it that the slum has met a savior like you!"Words of gratitude came from all directions and str

    Life was so hard for them.However, Yvonne said in surprise, "Commander Lennon, what I meant is that you come with me to my house, and I'll make Sashakee dumplings for you. You can't eat this vegetable unless it's cooked. You can't eat it raw!"Sean's expression became a little weird.Zander looked like he wanted to laugh but was afraid to."Isn't it inappropriate for me to go to your house? Does your family have enough food to eat?" Sean asked.Yvonne said cheerfully, "Enough! We have enough to eat! We have a lot of food at home. We can't finish them so soon.""How come you have a lot of food at home?"Sean asked in confusion.Most of the poor had no source of income after the closure of factories and companies. There should not be enough food.Yvonne was a little embarrassed as she said, "My father was sick earlier. He worried about us going hungry when our family ran out of money, so he asked my mother to buy some food in advance and store it at home. Dehydrated wheat will

    "Even if you haven't stepped into the legendary Transcendence Realm yet, you're already capable enough to overpower most martial artists! Mr. Lennon, you've possessed such strength at your age. You'll surely enter that legendary realm one day!" Adam exclaimed.He had practiced diligently day after day for decades, yet he was only a Beginner Great Grandmaster. Even so, he was one of the most talented martial artists among several generations of Greendom Chapel members. However, that talent was as different as night and day compared to Sean.Sean was now only in his 20s, yet he already possessed the strength to rival the supreme priest who had passed away.There were no other people as strong as Sean in the entire Dragon Kingdom."Alright, stop flattering me. I'll have someone transfer 500 million to you later. You can use it to improve Greendom Chapel's current situation. When the time comes, I'll accompany you to meet that man from Melode Cathedral," Sean said with a smile as he sh

    "Mr. Lennon, you also know how strong that old priest is. We Catholics only have the supreme priest who could rival him. Now that the supreme priest has passed away, that old priest has become even more arrogant..." Sean nodded slightly and sighed before expressing his regret. "It's a pity about the supreme priest.""Human life has its limitations. The path of martial arts is long and arduous. Few people in history have been able to reach the legendary Transcendence Realm." Adam sighed as well. He had already reached Great Grandmaster Realm that countless martial artists dreamed of. Even so, there were opponents he could not defeat and problems he could not solve."Mr. Lennon, since you're willing to leave that calligraphy in Greendom Chapel, you must have some history with Greendom Chapel. I wonder if you can tell me," Adam finally said after a moment of silence.Adam was the former chaplain of Greendom Chapel, but he had gone into seclusion to further advance himself after stepp

    A Christian refers to a follower of Jesus Christ who might be a Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant, or follower of another branch of the religion. A Catholic was a Christian who followed the Catholic religion transmitted through the succession of Popes, who were leaders of the Catholic church. Thus, All Roman Catholics were Christian, but not all Christians were Roman Catholic. The difference in beliefs had put the two in conflict."Could it be that their conflict has reignited? Didn't a Catholic priest warn those donkeys?" Sean asked with a frown.Adam nodded slightly and sighed before slowly replying, "It's just as you said. After the passing of Tiger Mountain's supreme priest, Christians often gave us Catholics a hard time. Now, not only are chaplains from all over Dragon Kingdom affected, but even Greendom Chapel has gotten into this situation."Most chaplains and churches relied on donations from their followers for their income. Once they lost this source of income, chaplains and

    Meanwhile, a daunting aura rose from the old chaplain.The Brown brothers’ expressions instantly changed, even being forced back three steps by the pressure from the old chaplain before barely stopping.Willow's eyes filled with panic. She felt like she had encountered a mortal enemy and had her life on the line.Sean's gaze focused before he immediately reached out to hold Willow."Cut that intimidating aura out. Who are you trying to scare?" Sean snapped as he looked at the old chaplain.However, the old chaplain's kind demeanor changed. He stared solemnly at Sean and asked, "I'm asking who you are.""Who am I? Is my calligraphy in Greendom Chapel gone?" Sean replied indifferently.The old chaplain froze in place as if struck by lightning."What? The old chaplain is from Greendom Chapel? How is that possible… Greendom Chapel is a nationally renowned holy place. H-How could one of their chaplains be selling counterfeit goods here?" Willow exclaimed. Her hands covered her mouth

    The smile on the old chaplain's face instantly froze. He looked awkwardly at Sean and stammered, "L-Look at my age. How could I engage in deceitful acts? God... I've lived a righteous life. I didn't expect to be so misunderstood in my twilight years..."Seeing the old chaplain's pitiful expression, Willow could not help but feel sorry for him.However, Sean looked disdainfully at the old chaplain before saying with a smile, "Sir, perhaps being an actor suits you better than being a chaplain."The old chaplain's acting skills were impeccable. He might even win a prize if he attended some award ceremony. With his white beard and the slightly worn-out robe that had turned somewhat faded, others might indeed mistake Sean for misunderstanding the old chaplain."Sir, you can't say such things! I've lived an honest life. You can't just tarnish my reputation!" The old chaplain pleaded earnestly, looking at Sean.Ignoring the old chaplain, Sean picked up a vase from the stall before him. W

    Sean glanced at Elton and Bernie beside him and said with a smile. Elton and Bernie scratched their heads awkwardly and beamed. "After we finish browsing Antiques Street, let's head to the new company office together and get acquainted with it. At least we won't end up not knowing where our company is in the future."Daniel and his brothers immediately nodded.Then, the group continued to stroll through Antiques Street. However, Antiques Street had been around for so many years, and each stall was run by shrewd peddlers, who made it increasingly difficult to find hidden treasures.Even with Sean's keen eye, he had not come across a genuine antique after strolling through Antiques Street for so long. All he saw were counterfeit antiques that looked authentic.After another ten minutes or so, Sean suddenly stopped in his tracks.Not far away, an old man with white hair in a black robe opened up a large bag of items and placed the items on the ground. He then took out a small sto

    Willow held Sean's arm, her face filled with happiness.Sean scanned the surroundings of the street stalls with a smile, searching for genuine antiques. The Brown brothers quietly followed Sean. With the Brown brothers standing behind Sean like bodyguards, the street peddlers who had heard about suckers in Antiques Street were now hesitant to make any sudden moves."Mr. Lennon, I heard this place is full of scammers. You wouldn't want to ruin your reputation here," Daniel reminded with a chuckle.Sean glanced at him and replied flatly, "Come on. Would my reputation be ruined in such a small place? Check out the two little trinkets Willow bought for only 500 dollars. If we auction them off, I can make at least 20 million dollars!"Daniel and his brothers paused and turned to look at the hairpin and the ring Willow was holding.Seeing the three men interested in the items, Willow stopped and handed the hairpin and ring to Daniel. "Feel free to take a look."Since they were Sean's

    It was normal to pay others for their service. Sean only gave them 10 thousand dollars when he had made 20 million dollars a while ago. Ten thousand was just a drop in the bucket. Daniel and his brothers swiftly made their way through Antiques Street, soon spotting Sean and Willow. Sensing someone approaching, Sean immediately turned around to look. Sean smiled when he saw the Brown brothers."Mr. Lennon! Mrs. Lennon!" Daniel and his brothers greeted respectfully when they arrived before Sean and Willow. Willow felt slightly embarrassed at being called "Mrs. Lennon" and only nodded slightly before looking elsewhere. Sean nodded with a smile. Fortunately, this part of Antiques Street was relatively isolated with few people around. Otherwise, Daniel and his brothers' sudden appearance would attract attention."Mr. Lennon, you spotted us from so far away. Your abilities are admirable!" Daniel lamented.Sean shook his head with a smile and said flatly, "Martial arts is all a

    "Don't be offended. Mr. Lennon also instructed us to watch over these three guys here," Bobby answered with a smile, not mentioning that they were hired earlier to mess with Sean for 3 thousand dollars.The four men standing before them were burly and not easy to mess with. Bobby would not foolishly tell them he had tried to trouble Sean."Is that so? How can we be sure you're not associated with these two?" Daniel asked hostilely as he raised his eyebrows skeptically.Bobby and his henchmen's expressions immediately changed, fear evident in their eyes. Bobby quickly pulled out his phone, showed the transaction record of Sean's payment, and said, "Look, look! This is the record of the money Mr. Lennon just wired me!"Zander glanced at it, confirming the identities of the three men in front of him as the same ones Sean had mentioned on the phone."I'll take these two back to the company. You three can find Mr. Lennon and help him out with any troubles," Zander said solemnly.Dan
