    The rainy season is still going on, but the bustling Thunder Bluff has not stopped because of the rain, since the last rainy season affected Thunder Bluff's trade.  In order to allow Thunder Bluff to maintain the vitality that a prosperous city should have during the continuous rainy season.  At the end of the last rainy season, Thunder Bluff's main road began a fairly large project, and some slender cement pillars were built on every bustling street.  Because the production of steel is not yet rich enough to be used as a building material, the centers of these columns are still made of specially treated bamboo-like slender plants. Although their toughness and sturdiness are not as good as steel.  Comparable, but it is enough to support a cement column that is not too high. With three plants as the main body and a small amount of iron wire as an aid, a perfect frame for pouring cement can be made.  Now that the rainy season has arrived, large green awnings that have been in the warehouse for several months have been added to these unique cement pillars that have been repaired.  Almost the entire Thunder Bluff is connected by these rain corridors, and some smart vendors have occupied some spacious enough locations, selling various snacks or odds and ends used in daily life there as usual.  ¡°These vendors who don¡¯t have much money to open stores have all obtained certificates from specialized institutions in Thunder Bluff. Not only do the carts they use have a unified design, but even professional clothing is distributed free of charge by the institution.  There is no profession in Thunder Bluff that has become like a street rat. Vendors here are professions that provide convenient services.  Of course, occasionally the agency will deploy manpower to conduct random inspections to see if the vendors who have obtained the certificates are acting in accordance with what they have learned.  If there are some violations, points will be deducted from the license just like a driver's license.  If all points are deducted, the license will be revoked.  Vendors whose business licenses have been revoked will need to go to the agency for assessment again.  The President deeply loves the construction and use of the rain corridor, so that people on the road in Thunder Bluff no longer need to hold an umbrella all the time, or wear greasy raincoats to walk in the rain curtain.  All shops on the main road are operating as usual.  And this is exactly what Mo Yan wants to see when he builds the rain corridor. Only by constantly stimulating consumption can he make more money.  In the White House, Emily is still reviewing documents. Now the corruption situation in some institutions in Thunder Bluff has become serious enough that it cannot be ignored. Emily is having a headache on how to deal with these people.  **Appeared when Mo Yan started using humans and gray dwarves as officials in his administrative agency.  And Mo Yan also knew what happened.  But he was powerless to stop the attack.  After all, although Mo Yan is very smart and right, he cannot completely eliminate the problem of the bad nature of intelligent creatures.  As long as there are human beings, there will be corruption. No matter how holy a person is before he becomes a high official, he will gradually be corrupted after gaining power, just like the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.  , exists like the laws of nature.  What happened in Thunder Bluff.  It's hundreds of times faster than other places, because this place is hundreds of times more prosperous than other cities.  The development of a country's commerce brings not only prosperity, but also a huge test for the overall quality of the people.  The impact of material desire can easily make people lose themselves for money, and businessmen want to obtain greater benefits.  The last thing to do is to seek political asylum.  They are accustomed to using money to measure everything. The most basic method is of course bribery, and this is one of the root causes of corruption among officials.  , there is no need to discuss the question of who comes first, the briber or the bribe taker.  Because this is as boring as the question of which came first, the chicken or the egg.  Mo Yan knew that with the development of Thunder Bluff's business, the officials he appointed would inevitably be corrupted, so he also established some laws and necessary anti-corruption agencies at the beginning.  But those only pushed the time out a little bit, and did not completely solve the problem fundamentally, and Mo Yan was actually unable to fundamentally solve the problem.  He once wanted to appoint big businessmen as necessary officials like neighboring Carthage.  But after thinking about it carefully, Mo Yan gave up on this unrealistic idea. The Carthaginians had very sound laws that stipulated what merchants and nobles could and could not do.  Moreover, almost all officials are composed of businessmen. If any one violates the law, others will immediately be able to see it from his business performance.  But Thunder Bluff does not have such conditions, because except for Mo Yan himself, almost no one can be regarded as a big businessman, and everyone is picking up what Mo Yan has left to eat.  They can only develop industries that Mo Yan despises.  Although those businesses have also developed a lot, they are notThose who are able to make a lot of money and eat just one more bite will be in a mess immediately after being appointed to high-ranking officials.  After rubbing her painful temples, Emily decided to let these people go for a while and give them a warning or something to make them restrain themselves.  The specific situation still has to wait until Mo Yan comes back before a real decision can be made. After all, they were all personally appointed by Mo Yan, and he should be aware of such a situation.  And thinking of the minotaur that had gone to hell, Emily suddenly felt an inexplicable feeling of panic in her heart.  She stood up and walked to the window, looking at the rain curtain sliding on the glass. Looking at the cross on the high spire that could only be vaguely visible outside the window, she prayed to the goddess whose name she didn't even know to protect her husband from hell.  Protect yourself from harm.  At this moment, there was a knock on the office door. Emily packed up her clothes and sat back at the desk before calling the people outside the door to come in.  "Mrs. Emily." The person who entered was Reger, who was in charge of the SS. He bowed slightly to Emily and handed over a document and said, "This is some work of the SS last month.  progress, and some necessary budget approvals. Of course this is not the main purpose of my visit. I want to report to you an abnormal situation in the castle in the past month or so.  It¡¯s strange, he seems to be paying close attention to the goddess temple in the city.¡± When the temple was being built, Ruiz also went to check it out, but after seeing a lot of things that Mo Yan made nonsense of, he thought it was just a tauren.  A special hobby, or something to gain a foothold in religion in the future.  But that transmission broke his mind. It seemed that the goddess was not something fabricated by the minotaur, which meant that this god either existed in real life or was impersonated by a powerful demon in hell.  And after more than a month of observation by Ryze, the possibility of the latter is very small, because there are no traces of blood sacrifice in the temple.  In most cases where demons pretend to be new gods to defraud souls, the simple temples built by ignorant farmers all reveal some kind of evil exuded by blood sacrifices, but the one in Thunder Bluff is not only sacred but also has a sacred aura.  Ryze has been to many historical sites and has heard about some things that happened in ancient times.  In the legend, there is also an evil goddess among monsters. She invaded the world with a large number of monsters and killed a large number of gods. Although the gods fought hard to defeat her, they did not completely eliminate her.  In most temples, there are warnings and ways to deal with the appearance of the evil goddess. The evil goddess is like the Doomsday Judgment.  If one day the evil goddess resurrects again, the whole world will fall into endless suffering.  Ryze wanted to confirm whether the goddess who could send the tauren to hell was the evil goddess recorded in the ruins and temples. If so, everything would be too bad. He had to find a way to send this news out.  , otherwise it will be too late.  "Are you paying attention to the temple?" Emily said with some surprise after hearing Regel's words: "Does he also want to believe in that god? So far, no one other than monsters has believed in that god, but if he  If you can make such a start, it may encourage other people to choose to believe in it, which is a good thing. " "If this is really the case, I don't need to worry." Regel shook his head and said.  : "He seems to have discovered something terrible, but he didn't reveal any information about my insinuations. But his eyes are very familiar to me. They are eyes that are wandering between betrayal and non-betrayal. He  Maybe he wants to do something detrimental to the Lord of the City. " "Is that so?" This sudden news caught Emily off guard. She thought for a moment and drafted an order and handed it to Regeer. "Then.  Send more people to monitor him. Of course, you must ensure that he will not discover your surveillance. Otherwise, I would rather you not do it. " "I understand, madam." Regel looked at the signature and the official bull-head seal.  After confirming the contents of the order, he nodded and said: "I will arrange this operation. If anything happens, I will handle it specially. In the past, we might not have been able to do anything about a mage, but now  We have the emp he invented and made, so I can guarantee that he will not really do any major damage. "The magic-killing bomb emp created by President Deep Love Ryze will likely be used on himself.  This may be some kind of irony.  But Emily couldn't control these things. She thought for a while and added with some worry: "Wait a minute and you go notify Ellie and Jones to come here. I will arrange for them to assist you. A professional nurse can do it."  There are just too many things to do.¡±(Unfinished)Continued.  If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian to vote for recommendations and monthly votes.
