This was the morning after the night of bloodshed.

In the City Council Hall, Bai E looked at all the representatives from the assembled factions and slowly announced several policies he had long decided upon—

"First, provide a free basic health check-up for all residents of Blackwater City, and distribute basic dications on a large scale, setting up a public dical site in each area to offer free dical services to residents of Blackwater City in need."

This point was indisputable. Although many faction representatives had doubts upon hearing this news, considering this was Bai E's first decision as the city lord,

the new officer distributing so benefits to the residents of Blackwater City was also considered a strategy to win people's hearts.

Although the cost was sowhat large, since City Lord Bai E had already spoken, if his first decision were questioned on the spot, it would be sowhat embarrassing for him.

So those representatives with doubtful expressions remained silent, tacitly approving the issuance of Bai E's decree.

Of course, Bai E did not wait for any opinions; he simply continued speaking on his own.

"Second, from now on, conduct a key physical examination for all residents under the age of 18 in the city. This examination only requires testing specific indicators, and the resource investnt is relatively high, but each individual only needs it once. In the future, every newborn will also undergo this key physical examination. For each individual who ets the standards of the key physical examination, the city will provide certain growth resources to assist in the city's talent reserve. Of course, according to experience, the proportion of such special talents will not exceed one per thousand, so the actual investnt will not be so high that the city cannot accept it. Detailed specifics will be handled by the doctor and financial departnt after the eting."

This was a policy the doctor implented in his own city. So surgical considerations could be seen from birth in infants, and such children would receive preferential resource cultivation, with mandatory surgical transformation at the age of 12.

Of course, Blackwater City would not enforce transformations, but investing early in individuals with potential, even without surgical transformations, would allow them to undergo physical training early and transition into other types of talents.

The doctor had a lot of experience with such matters, making him and the financial departnt discussing undoubtedly the best choice.

Like the first policy, the second policy was also evidently to win people's hearts.

The shrewd nobles imdiately saw through that these so-called special talents were absolute private soldiers recruited by Bai E for himself.

What happened to the previous city lord, as the instigator, Bai E certainly would not allow to happen to himself a second ti.

Controlling the city's elite and consolidating his rule.

This is sothing every ruler would do, and it's understandable.

The only thing intriguing is the "doctor" ntioned in Bai E's speech, just which doctor in the city he was referring to.

Being able to quickly gain the trust of City Lord Bai E, this "doctor" is not simple...

Ignoring the changes in thoughts of the various representatives, Bai E continued to introduce the third decree.

"Third, from now on, provide at least six years of compulsory education for all children in the city who have reached the age of 6, and lift the blockade on certain advanced knowledge for all residents of Blackwater City, including but not limited to the manufacture and injection of Gene Optimization Solution, advanced physical training plans, computer information-related technologies, and human dicine-related knowledge. Specific release regulations will be provided in more detail after the eting by Helen from the Scientific Research Institute."

"..." This point instantly touched sensitive nerves in so people, with soone wanting to voice opposition on the spot, only to be quickly pulled back by their quick-witted companion, shaking their head frantically to signal him not to speak.

If the first two decisions were to win the hearts of the general populace of Blackwater City and establish individual authority, then the third decision was undoubtedly to weaken the monopoly of these noble powers.

In the past, they had gathered considerable wealth from ordinary people through war gangs by relying on this advanced knowledge, but now, with City Lord Bai E in power, distributing the advantage originally exclusive to them across the city undoubtedly provides the possibility for those ordinary people to beco new nobles.

This, of course, made many nobles find it hard to accept.

The noble who stopped his companion from speaking out was not supporting City Lord Bai E's decision but rembered the bloodshed of last night vividly and dared not provoke the wrath of the dragon at such a ti.

Now, facing the matter head-on, they would gradually change the actual situation in the subtle influence in the future, a common thod for these nobles;

Politics is said to be mutual compromise until a balanced situation acceptable to all is created.

The previous city lord was like this, and the current city lord... no matter how powerful he may personally be, as long as there are places where he needs them to act, such compromises are inevitable.

But not everyone retreated like this, and soone couldn't help but stand up to question, "City Lord, isn't this decision a bit too much?"

Bai E turned his head, looking expressionlessly toward the direction of the speaker, "What do you have to say?"

The person stamred for a mont but mustered the courage to argue, "The dissemination of those advanced knowledge will allow the ordinary populace to all possess the power to threaten stability. If any trouble arises among them, the consequences... are unimaginable. For the sake of city stability, I suggest that this decision requires careful discussion and review."
