Mickey, Commander Mende stood up and said to Suldak in a neither humble nor condescending manner:
"In previous years, the allocation for this area was 5,000 gold coins, but this year some sections of the city wall were more seriously damaged, so our city defense and security brigade applied for slightly more repair money..."
Kurt Latie, the finance officer of the city hall who was sitting opposite him, immediately responded:
"Mende, did you pay a little more? You just doubled the maintenance and repair funds! The grant application you submitted to the Department of Finance this year stated that it was 10,000 gold coins! I think with this money,
You don't need to spend time and energy on repairs at all. You can tear down a section of the city wall and build a new section. In this way, you only need to spend another five years to renovate the entire city wall of Ruit City before the end of your term.
."
"Does the wall of Ruit City need to be repaired every year?" Surdak asked the officials around him.
Logistics Minister Allen Benton immediately replied:
"That's true. The city hall allocates funds every year. This year's application for the security brigade is higher than in previous years."
Finance Officer Kurt Latie turned to Logistics Minister Allen Benn and smiled, then said immediately:
"But everyone knows that after so many years, the walls of Ruit City have become old and worn. Now they are completely repaired only when there are cracks in them..."
The officials also discussed Ruit's city wall in a flurry. Surdak did not express his opinion at first. He just sat aside and listened quietly to everyone's discussion. When he finally understood what was going on,
The general situation inside.
"Well, I don't care where you used the funds for repairing the city wall in the past. I can forget about the past..."
Suldak stood up from his seat, stared at Mickey Mende and said:
"Starting from this year, city wall repairs will be publicly tendered. The specific form is that the city defense and security brigade will list the sections of the city wall that need to be repaired to the logistics department. The logistics department will put all the city walls that need to be repaired out to bid, and finally the construction team that wins the bid will carry out the system.
Maintain these city wall sections, and wait until everything is inspected and accepted, and then the Finance Department will collect the money.
After Suldak finished speaking, he cast his gaze on the faces of Financial Officer Kurt and City Defense and Security Brigade Commander Mickey Mende.
Mickey Mende looked at Suldak in surprise, the expression on his face was a little unnatural, and he couldn't express the pain in his heart.
Originally, this repair money went through the accounts of the City Defense and Security Brigade, and some part of it would flow into his hands. This time he applied for double the repair money, hoping that Surdak would not randomly check all the funds.
…
And the most important thing is that there is money in the Treasury of the Finance Department now,
According to Commander Mickey Mende, as long as he persuades the young financial officer in front of him, he can get a large financial allocation.
Moreover, the city walls of Ruit City were indeed very dilapidated and needed to be repaired. Unfortunately, he submitted the application at the wrong time. Suldak happened to be away these days, so the application went to the financial officer Kurt Latier first.
, so there is this scene in front of me.
No one expected that Suldak would make a decision directly in the conference hall and change the process of applying for funding for repairs.
Now this allocation will not be delivered to the city defense brigade at all, and even the original money will not be allocated.
Mickey Mende is a little regretful. If he had known this, he would not have said these words anyway. According to the practice in previous years, even if there is only an allocation of 5,000 gold coins, he can still get at least one-tenth of it, but now
I don't think I can even get a hair out of it.
When Suldak looked towards him, Mickey Mende forced a smile to show his support for Suldak's decision.
His slightly stiff face was full of wrinkles when he smiled.
But the matter had already been decided, and he glanced at Kurt Trattier with some disgust. The conflict between him and the financial officer was more than that.
Suldak looked at the table again and faced the officials at the back of the conference hall who had begun to whisper among the family members below.
Members said:
"Now that the slums are being renovated, I hope that the environment in Ruit City will always be kept clean and tidy. Who is in charge of the Health Bureau? Please come forward and let me know!"
A nobleman sitting at the back of the conference hall stood up hastily.
Surdak quickly gestured and asked him to sit down.
Surdak then continued:
"As a large number of caravans pass through Ruit City and enter the Ganbu plane, the passenger flow in Ruit City will increase day by day. Therefore, out of consideration for the safety of these business groups, I hope that the public security issues in the city can be improved.
To improve, all potential dangers must be eliminated quickly, including those young nobles, and they must not kill people in the city. Once I find out, I will definitely punish them severely."
Although Suldak spoke not too fast, the officials in the conference hall found that no one dared to make any objections.
Surdak wants to attract foreign caravans to settle in Luyite City and Mukuso City. Now Mukuso City no longer has the advantage of tax exemption, so whether these merchants will open their shops in Mukuso or Lu
Yite, this requires businessmen to make their own choices.
"In the past, some foreign businessmen came here to borrow money, but now, some young people in Ruit City want to do business. I hope that foreign businessmen can get equal competition in Ruit City...
By doing this, Surdak changed the trade pattern of Ruit City.
He also knew that this would touch the interests of some noble lords, but if the city wanted to change and develop, it had to take this step.
Surdak is no ordinary consul. His previous identity was the commander of the heavy armored infantry corps. In Mukuso City, he controlled a large number of troops.
Therefore, any noble lord who dares to resist and oppose him will be defeated by force in the final solution.
Now, the entire Ganbu plane is in the hands of Surdak.
Moreover, there was Luther Houche standing behind him. It is estimated that even the chief executive of Talapa Gan District would not dare to offend him easily.
After the meeting ended, Suldak walked out first.
Later, other officials attending the meeting gathered together in twos and threes, apparently discussing what was discussed at the meeting.
Now that Ruit City is on the right track, Surdak needs to make it more prosperous...
Immediately afterwards, Ruit City ushered in a huge caravan, and businessman Malacom's Thunder Rhino caravan finally arrived in Ruit City again.
This time, Malacom plans to move the remaining half-dismantled furnace of the steel workshop to Dodan Town.
Following Malacom to Ruit City, there was also the business group from Dodan Town...
