Chapter Summary
He had been thinking of intervening, but Zhao Wudi had kept him outside, with so many people around. While Zhao Wudi was indeed powerful, there was no need to save face for the city lord under these circumstances. If they lose their fighting ability because of this incident, we will also give them a sum of money, enough for them to buy a house here.” When Liu Ning said this, everyone was speechless with surprise.
The city lord watched all this with a cold face. Such a thing happening in his city made him feel embarrassed. He had been thinking of intervening, but Zhao Wudi had kept him outside, with so many people around. While Zhao Wudi was indeed powerful, there was no need to save face for the city lord under these circumstances. This was clearly a complete disregard for dignity. Zhao Wudi didn't say anything, because he had already analyzed the situation. The city lord's abilities were limited; letting this guy in might cause problems for everyone. It was better for him to stay outside obediently. What could he possibly do inside anyway?
At this moment, Zhu Tianhua whispered a few words to his father, and the city lord's face relaxed slightly. Zhu Tianhua had seen everything that had just happened. In fact, Zhao Wudi was also concerned about the city lord's safety. If the city lord really rushed in, how could they fight the monster with all their might? If the city lord died, it would be a huge boost for the Fusang Martial Arts School, so these people had to protect the city lord's life. After hearing his son's explanation, the city lord felt a little better. Regardless of whether these words were true or false, at least his face was saved. The two guards beside him also looked a little better. They were bound to the city lord for life. If the city lord was not good enough, then they were even less good enough.
"Burn all traces, including those liquids. We must remove them all. Nobody knows if these things are contagious. If they harm the public, it won't be good for any of us. You all need to be careful now. If any videos leak out, shut down the website immediately. This is my statement, and I will take responsibility if anyone holds us accountable. We absolutely cannot let anything leak out. Leaking it will not benefit any of us. Everyone should understand this clearly, otherwise we'll just have to wait and see. It won't do any good for any of us. I hope everyone understands."
After the group leader finished speaking, he left. He had lost face here today, but he was even more aware of something else: the news of this place could not be leaked. The common people didn't understand what was going on here, and many powerful people were even less aware of what was going on. Once those people found out, things would get complicated. So it was best to do these things properly now. If we don't take these things seriously, we won't need to care about them in the future. If we don't do them properly, it's hard to say what the future will be like. In this situation, everyone should work hard, otherwise the final result will not be good for anyone. The city lord will also investigate. Regardless of whether it's Liu Ning or Zhao Wudi, on the surface, they still have to obey the prefect's orders.
Several hours later, it was already dawn. The surrounding residents didn't know what had happened, but they all understood one thing: their homes were no longer homes. Some had insurance, which was considered quite good; at least the insurance company would pay them some money. Of course, it wouldn't allow them to live a peaceful life, but at least it would prevent them from living on the streets. For those without insurance, it was simply bad luck. The garrison government wouldn't pay them a single penny. Land in the city was incredibly valuable; if there were any compensation, it could amount to hundreds of billions of yen. How could the capital possibly come up with that kind of money? So, forget about it; there would absolutely be no compensation in this regard. Those without insurance would have no choice but to find a place to live under a bridge.
Liu Ning looked at these people and felt utterly miserable, but what could he do? Was he supposed to compensate them? Of course not. Everyone had seen what had happened; it wasn't his fault, but the fault of the Fusang Martial Arts School. Achieving absolute fairness and justice in this world was practically impossible. So Liu Ning could only turn away. He had many things to do now. The first thing was to tally the losses of his men and provide them with some compensation. They had lost one-third of their forces, and two-thirds were still watching. He had to satisfy them all; otherwise, who would fight for him in the future? They weren't fools; they were all watching this.
Since the guard team was formed, their treatment has been the highest in the area, so everyone knows that Liu Ning will definitely pay them a lot of money. But then again, what if someone dies? Liu Ning pays a lot while they're alive, but if they die, he might not care anymore. That's what they're worried about now. Liu Ning can't really tell them what they're thinking. Today, things will be handled this way. As for how it will turn out, that's hard to say. That's the current situation. After everything happens, everyone will understand how to handle things. If they can do better, they'll be willing to risk their lives here in the future. But if they don't do well, they shouldn't blame us for being unreasonable.
“Go and take a count of everyone. If anyone dies, give their family a one-time payment of 1.2 million yuan, plus 3,000 yuan per month until the child reaches adulthood, or until the parents pass away. If the family is willing to stay, give them 6,000 yuan directly. If they are planning to get married, we will compensate them with 50,000 yuan. For those who are injured, we will give them a reward of 600,000 yuan. No matter what their physical condition is, we must make sure they are healed. If they lose their fighting ability because of this incident, we will also give them a sum of money, enough for them to buy a house here.”
When Liu Ning said this, everyone was speechless with surprise. This guy was indeed quite shocking; the amount of money he offered was really substantial. He must be incredibly powerful.
