Chapter 1821

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

Upon hearing Sean's question, Bob immediately moved his arm to show Sean and said with a chuckle, "Commander Lennon, my arm has pretty much recovered. It doesn't affect my life. I can still do labor work! It's just that I have only one arm left, and the factories and mines don't want me..."Bob's expression darkened again at the end of his speech.Sean performed the amputation, and the surgery was successful with no after-effects.However, he lost an arm after all. He could not work like regular people anymore. He had also approached the coal mine he used to work at to find a job, but they rejected him.As a man, he had no job and depended on his wife and daughter—It was something no man could accept unless this man had no shame."Don't worry. I will help you find a job. You need more rest."Sean said to Bob.To reassure Bob and prevent him from thinking he was only comforting him, Sean added, "We lack someone to manage the canteen warehouse at the city defense army's main camp.
