Chapter 4620 Double-Edged Sword
After gulping down the 'wheat drink', Henry Boll quickly got to the point.
"Okay, what do you think about the new arrangement?"
The new arrangement Henry Ball said was for Luo Ji to start taking over the lower districts of other cities. According to the plan, he would have to take over at least ten lower districts within three months.
Luo Ji just wanted to roll his eyes at this.
If you compare this matter to eating, let you eat ten bowls of rice in one go, wouldn't it be too stuffy?
Now in Luo Ji's hands, he indeed has a team and some subordinates who are capable of acting on their own.
However, according to the calculations of Luo Ji's individual mastermind, in the next three months, he will take over at most five lower districts. This is still under a lot of pressure and risk.
He can't manage any more, and there aren't that many reliable talents for him to use.
Governing the city is not something that can be done with closed eyes, let alone the lower city where human beings gather.
In the Vatican of Holy Light, the governance of the lower city is basically rotten!
Regarding this issue, Luo Ji undoubtedly mentioned it emphatically to Henry Ball.
Regarding this, Henry Boll was also very helpless. Of course he knew that this matter had to be done step by step, but the lower urban areas of other cities are now in chaos.
After the border army captured those cities, they indeed picked out a group of administrators to manage the lower urban areas, but few managed them well, let alone developed like Luo Ji.
Just some time ago, General Iverson had called him to have a talk, and the talk was about this matter.
Under the premise of comparison with other managers, General Iverson is undoubtedly deeply aware of the gap in governance capabilities.
Not to mention comparing it with other humans, just judging from the current governance results, that Scarlett's governance ability is even stronger than most of the winged people they have seen.
General Iverson, who is fully aware of the importance of Luo Ji, in order to prevent some mediocre people from making the already dilapidated downtown area even worse, and also considering their big plans, also hopes that he can quickly stand up and take over. , the euphemistic name is that those who can do more work...
At that time, after Henry Ball learned about the situation, he knew that Luo Ji would definitely complain.
After all, General Iverson is still a general. Leading troops and fighting wars is what the opponent is best at. But if you want him to govern the city, engage in development, or even handle government affairs, then he is obviously not very good at it.
So the other party is not particularly clear about how troublesome it is to actually do his few fluffy words.
But Henry Bole knew that, after all, he and Luo Ji were closer in terms of ability.
So he was considerate of Luo Ji's difficulties, so, as early as when General Iverson brought up this matter, he had already won everything he could get for Luo Ji in advance.
It also includes a group of somewhat tricky guys...
"There are a group of people that you can use, and in terms of ability, they should be able to help you a lot, but I don't know if you can control them."
As soon as Henry Ball said this, Luo Ji knew who he was talking about.
Who else but those prisoners of war who were held as coolies in the mines?
These prisoners of war were all residents of the former human empire. Not to mention anything else, just in terms of knowledge and thought, they are no longer comparable to humans in the Holy See of Holy Light.
Among them, just picking a few people at random can provide Luo Ji with a lot of help.
But now there is a problem. Those prisoners of war are all hostile to the Holy See of the Holy Light. Once they are released, no one can guarantee whether the other party will bring them any harm...
While the two sides were thinking about it, Henry Bole's gaze fell directly on Luo Ji.
"Who are the group of people I'm talking about, you should know?"
"..."
Facing Henry Bole's sudden questioning, Luo Ji didn't have much expression on his face.
After the two sides looked at each other briefly for two seconds, Luo Ji nodded.
"Probably guessed something."
"Those kids from the downtown orphanage?"
Under Henry Ball's follow-up questioning, Luo Ji nodded generously.
"It's impossible for those children to appear out of thin air, right?"
We are all smart people, and some things cannot be hidden. Luo Ji and Ye Qingxuan, if they want to treat Henry Boll as a fool, then they are the biggest fools.
It was precisely because of Henry Boer's understanding of Luo Ji's mind that he basically concluded that Luo Ji had already guessed about the existence of this group of people.
At this time, Luo Ji's answer was basically in line with Henry Ball's expectations.
The core reason really lies in the orphanage.
Of course, Henry Boll didn't know that Luo Ji had already controlled the miniature reconnaissance robot to fly to the mine.
Now his understanding of the internal situation of the mine is probably higher than that of Henry Boll.
"Those humans are prisoners of war captured by our Holy See Kingdom in the early years of war with the Human Empire..."
While speaking, Henry Bole had been observing the changes in Luo Ji's expression.
In this regard, Luo Ji also stated bluntly...
"Don't look at me like that, I'm just a prisoner of war. We humans will also capture prisoners of war when we fight among ourselves. It's nothing unusual."
That's what war is all about. Luo Ji and Ye Qingxuan really didn't have much interest in the enmity between the country and the family of those captives.
But Luo Ji's statement undoubtedly reassured Henry Ball a little.
"You can understand, of course it's best, but the trouble is that those prisoners of war may not understand, so releasing them and even giving them power is actually a very risky move."
Having said that, Henry Bole paused...
"Moreover, there are more of them, and their abilities are basically above that of ordinary people in the lower city. If you adopt them, according to their abilities, you will soon be able to join the management team. Those confidantes you originally supported may not be them. opponents, if you are not careful, Scarlett, even you may be taken away by them!"
When it came to the end, Henry Bole's tone was undoubtedly a bit serious, and Luo Ji could hear the worry in the other's words.
"I can basically guess the risks here, and they do exist. If possible, I certainly hope to avoid this risk and let me develop slowly and steadily. In the end, didn't you bring up this troublesome thing?"
Henry Boll was completely unable to refute Luo Ji's words.
Steady and slow development is the safest way, which Henry Boll undoubtedly agrees with.
But it also has to be combined with the actual situation!
Considering the current situation of the border army, they undoubtedly need to stabilize the territory they have occupied in the shortest possible time, and even develop it, so as to increase their bargaining chips and confidence!
