187: Chapter 186 Unifying the South of the City - Establishing Rules

Having memorized the poem inside, Lu Qingfeng turned around and led her into the private room.

The four people present all stood up and called out respectfully: "Greetings, My Lord!"

They all knew that this mysterious My Lord had already utterly crushed and killed the leaders of the three major gangs that had ruled Chaos City for hundreds of years, completely unifying the Human Race's South District. They just didn't know what he would do next...

They also knew that today, perhaps, things would become clear.

"Sit... sit, don't stand!" Lu Qingfeng said very politely.

The four sat down obediently, all eyes fixed on him.

Lu Qingfeng smiled and looked at the woman from the Triad Society, saying: "Your name is Yuan Gu, right?"

Yuan Gu stood up and replied: "Yes, My Lord."

Lu Qingfeng pressed his hand down and smiled gently: "Sit down, sit down, don't be so distant. Everyone here today is one of us. Brother Lang, Fatty, Brother Qiang, they are all my acquaintances. You are the only one I am currently not very familiar with, so I wanted to get to know you!"

"Yes... My Lord." She sat down respectfully.

Lu Qingfeng scanned them with his eyes and took out a notebook.

The four of them, including Lian Caiyi, also took out notebooks, preparing to take notes.

Lu Qingfeng was very satisfied, because the words he would speak today might change the face of the entire South District, involving over one hundred million people; everyone had to be cautious.

He cleared his throat, opened his notebook, and said solemnly:

"I asked everyone to come to this meeting today because there are important matters to discuss. Previously, the struggle between the three major factions caused our Human Race here in Chaos City to live in misery, with everyone living worse than dogs. Although this is a City of Sin, it does not mean that everyone here is a sinful person.

Therefore, I want to try to change this place, at the very least, make our South District become like the other races, right? I have also been to the territories of the other four races. Apart from the Elf Race, the other three races still have advanced technology and prosperity... It is not as chaotic as our South District. Why is that?"

Seeing Lu Qingfeng ask the question, the four did not dare to answer casually... Moreover, this My Lord's words shocked them deeply. Only in Gao Qiqiang's eyes was there a glimmer of light.

Lian Caiyi smiled and said: "Everyone, no need to be reserved. Feel free to speak your mind; we are all our own people."

"My Lord..." Gao Qiqiang spoke first.

"Brother Qiang, you speak!"

"Because of our Human Race's deep-rooted flaws, we like to fight amongst ourselves. The inaction of the upper echelons leads to the numbness of the lower classes. Therefore, to change these things, we must first change the upper echelons... Because the other races have unified leadership, their policies can be implemented one by one. But here in our South District, whoever pushes a policy, the other side will definitely come to cause trouble. Over time, it became like this."

"Very good..." Lu Qingfeng looked at him with encouraging eyes. Brother Qiang had not been here for long, so he had not been completely eroded yet; he still had dreams and light in his heart!

"Brother Qiang is right. That is why this was my initial idea for unifying the South District. So next, the first thing is to make changes, starting with ourselves." Lu Qingfeng said with a smile. Of course, he had to learn to package himself. This place might become his base of operations in the future, and he had to package himself well.

No matter what the reason, as long as everyone in the future believes that he is doing this for the vast number of humans in Chaos City, that is enough. Of course, not right now; he still has to remain behind the scenes.

"Therefore, I am issuing the following decrees, which must be executed immediately."

Everyone quickly took out paper and pens, preparing to record.

"One: Gang members are not allowed to easily kill, bully, or threaten any civilians. This is an iron rule that must never be violated. Please, after you go back, strictly order your respective subordinates and factions."

"Two: From now on, all outsiders who enter Chaos City must be captured and detained for one year for identity verification. In the South District, no one is allowed to leave Chaos City without permission."

Although he could not control the other areas, according to his understanding, in the entire Chaos City, most of the Human Race transported outsiders through the South District, where there were over a dozen Smuggling Factories in total.

"Furthermore, checkpoints will be set up outside all Smuggling Factories in the South District. We will divide the work, and if anyone under your responsibility sneaks out, don't blame me for being ruthless..."

When Lu Qingfeng said this, the air in the entire room seemed to freeze.

Everyone also knew the importance of this matter. If people cannot get out, news naturally cannot be passed out, and there is no SkyNet signal here.

If this news were to get out, it might be fine for the South District temporarily, but it would be hard to say in the long run. Humans are the most complex animals.

As for how news is passed in other sectors, that is not something they can manage for now.

"Three: Eliminate the slums. This 'elimination' refers to arranging jobs for all of them, demolishing the entire slums, and vigorously building factories. Of course, this cannot be realized for the time being and will take some time, but I hope everyone remembers that population is our most important foundation... We cannot dig our own graves."

As time passed, Lu Qingfeng spoke one point after another, and everyone dared not be negligent, recording them one by one.

"Alright, that is all for today. Remember to notify your subordinates when you go back and release the news to the outside world that your three major factions have temporarily shaken hands and made peace, and are preparing to vigorously develop the South District!"

"Yes... My Lord!"

"Hmm..." Lu Qingfeng nodded, drank some water, and looked at them with a smile: "Rest assured, as long as you work diligently, I won't do anything to you; on the contrary, I will promote you... But if you act in defiance while pretending to comply, then don't blame me when the time comes."

"Oh right, one more thing. Brother Lang, Fatty, where is the list?"

"It is already prepared, My Lord!" Old Wolf handed a piece of paper to Lu Qingfeng.

He took it, read it, pondered for a moment, and smiled: "Alright, that is it for today. Sorry for the trouble... I hope you can keep this confidential... Discuss among yourselves how to proceed. If you have any issues, you can find Miss Lian!"

After speaking, he stood up and walked downstairs.

Lian Caiyi followed him downstairs, and when passing by that painting, she took another look.

The four people left in the room also began to discuss who would be responsible for what and how to proceed simultaneously.

Inside the car, Lu Qingfeng listened to their conversation.

"Caiyi, did you see that? Times create heroes. Their abilities are not bad at all!"

The ninth floor was not high, so Lian Caiyi could hear them too. She smiled: "Yes... I hope it goes as we planned!"

"It is not a hope, it is a certainty, Caiyi. Any schemes and tricks are nothing but bubbles in the face of absolute strength; they shatter at a single blow. Therefore, the most important thing is to improve our strength. However, I plan to take those two flowing cloud fruits back this time and give one to my dad and one to Old Xiao. Especially Old Xiao, he is barely holding on."

Speaking of this, Lu Qingfeng felt a bit uncomfortable. Is death inevitable for everyone?

The Martial Dao... where does it actually lead? Can one really achieve eternal life?

Also, this time when he goes back, he has to find someone to ask about something. This matter is very important to Lu Qingfeng; he has an important hypothesis that needs to be verified...
