795: Chapter 781: Undercurrents 795: Chapter 781: Undercurrents When Lu Ping’an was about to leave, he was singled out for a private discussion by the officials.
On the one hand, they wanted to establish a relationship and recognize his achievents.
After all, Lu Ping’an has been doing a comndable job and his track record has been exceptional…
To so people, his “non-conformity” and “lack of ambition but dedicated work ethic” can be seen as quite favorable.
The other matter was that they had a new task, asking him to visit the State Governnt.
“As expected, the sa old ‘internal strife’ has started…”
Where there is governance, there is rebellion.
Where there is rebellion, there is strong suppression.
The conflict between Changping City and the other cities in the state has been longstanding and very difficult to alleviate.
After all, they are not just fighting for developnt rights, but also survival rights…
In the past, the State Governnt continuously “sucked blood” from the surrounding cities, causing countless talents and geniuses to choose better developnt areas.
This is a harsh reality, everyone has the right to choose a better future.
However, for those who stay behind, the deteriorating security environnt and the decreasing number of obedient professional fighters have beco pressing concerns.
Thus, with the “new era” major reshuffle, the restless cities below are not limited to these four cities.
They do not trust the State Governnt, or rather, if given a choice, who would want to entrust their own developnt and safety to others…
If sothing really happens, can they rely on the State Governnt?
All cities have their own clandestine activities, whether big or small, direct or secretive.
Faced with this situation, the Changping State Governnt also has headaches…
Their previous developnt path of only focusing on their own interests is not suitable anymore.
Now all states are consolidating forces to compete as a whole, and they also have to face the “rebellions” from below.
Strong repression, administrative orders?
It would be strange if the subordinates listened.
After all these years, there is a lot of understanding between each other.
However, unlike the life and death competition with the Aus people, the cities are fighting for “developnt rights”, but more directly, they are vying for resources, among which the most important is “human resources”.
In this new era, powerful explorers themselves are developnt resources, and professionals need sufficient resources to beco stronger.
Each city is seizing the opportunity to showcase themselves while also providing better developnt opportunities to the low-level professionals who are eager to advance.
The gist is, whoever can gather more and stronger professionals will be able to seize the opportunity.
Once this thing rolls into a snowball, it is impossible for the latecors to catch up.
Just like the previous Changping State, the “blood-sucking” has resulted in chaos.
For professionals who want to progress, a bigger stage is almost a necessity.
The lower cities indeed cannot retain people, and the even worse environnt has further led to brain drain…
“Holding a review eting and State Gas at this ti, isn’t this making things difficult for us….”
Not long ago, Changping State issued a sudden notice to hold an annual end-of-year review eting, and a “Sports et” and exposition with live broadcasting all over the state.
So of the events include individual competitions, performance matches for high-level professionals, and other practical programs.
As for the exposition, each city has its own exhibition area, mainly displaying otherworldly gains, latest technologies, records of warriors in foreign wars, etc.
Obviously, this is them flexing their muscles.
However, the cities really can’t refuse this opportunity as they need more reputation to recruit talents.
Showcase “wealth”, showcase “strength”, showcase “the gains of these few months”…….
With the implentation of the new policies, a large number of civilian forces have pledged allegiance to the officials, Decree-level combatants have largely accepted “reorganization”, everyone wants a piece of the amazing benefits of this era.
If they can show the “business card of the city” in this series of competitions, even if they can’t beat the Changping State Governnt, they might be able to beat other competing cities.
The bonuses of the era also have limits.
For those “freely acting civilian forces”, if you take more, I will have less.
Reputation, prestige, ranking…
All cities have dispatched their elite troops, ready for a grand “New Year” celebration.
“You’re not even 18 years old yet, right?
You’re already at Decree-level, and you’re also a lawyer….”
In many respects, Lu Ping’an is a very suitable candidate, so the responsibility was thrown to him.
The leaders of the Four-City governnt beca even more eager to woo him after receiving their own Decree-level warriors’ evaluations of him.
“Lu Ping’an?
He’s incredible…
We have a confidentiality agreent, and I can’t reveal specific details, but personally, I suspect that he might be able to reach Rule-level by the age of thirty.”
“Rule-level?
It’s just a matter of ti…”
“Don’t ask , I can’t defeat him…
I’ve been a Decree-level for ten years, but he is not an ordinary Decree-level.”
“….His true strength lies in his overall developnt potential.
He has just entered a rapid developnt phase.
It’s possible that the ordinary Rule-level is not his end point….”
Lu Ping’an’s “amazing potential” is the root cause of all his outrageous actions being chalked up to “youthful exuberance.”
The “gift” given by the officials was very sincere, there was no reason for Lu Ping’an to refuse…
Lu Ping’an speculated that they should already know about the existence of the “Trading Land”, but they choose to ignore it.
No sooner had things here ended than new trouble ca.
“Ancient City University wants to lead the team for an exam?”
A similar commission ca from the school authorities of Ancient City University.
The sa commission also ca from the expectation of his comrades in the Special Services Team.
“….Temporary explorer certification?
Haha, these guys really know how to exploit loopholes.”
Looking at the commission in front of him, Lu Ping’an was amused.
Without doubt, being an explorer is currently the hottest profession.
As long as one succeeds in bringing back a fortune, it is enough for many to live the rest of their lives comfortably…
In fact, among the “followers” of the first batch of explorers, quite a few have indeed chosen to retire on the spot and return to their hotowns as wealthy people.
However, the total number of explorers at present is not only limited, but also far from adequate.
But looking at the current situation, the Eastern Country officials have no plans to organize a second round of qualifications test for explorers.
“What if we don’t have new licenses?
Let’s issue temporary ones instead.”
As with the previous temporary Secret Keeper certificate, the central governnt, under its tacit agreent, allowed regional governnts to carry out the sa tactics.
These “temporary licenses” do co with the “rights to board”, but they are significantly reduced in various ways.
The scope of their duties is severely limited, the number of “followers” they can bring is reduced, and they themselves must accompany a real explorer….
In various aspects, they have referred to the relationship between temporary and professional Secret Keepers.
This temporary license limited to the issuing area will have slightly lowered requirents.
It is currently being prepared to be examined together with the upcoming Gas, and it is said to be live-stread across the state.
In a sense, it also serves to display the reserves of the city in an open setting.
Contrary to the hesitation of many people previously, the quota for this round is extraordinarily sought after.
This series of commissions is, in essence, actually a major move by the State Governnt.
As a young “talent” of the Ancient City, it seems quite normal for Lu Ping’an to be put in the line of fire.
Yet, he was still tempted.
“They are directly giving Rule-level items, it’s impossible to refuse.”
