The Guardian's Sword

The poverty class referred to people living in the west part of the city and barely
surviving.

It was difficult to jump from one class to a higher one because of the severe
stratification. It required not only economic support but also the recognition of the
higher class. Thus, the former mayors encountered huge resistance when
handling poverty.

Almost everyone in the wealthy class and the middle class was opposed to
improving the status of the poverty class and making their lives better.

It was because the poverty class was equivalent to cheap labor.

Improving their quality of life and status would shake the interests of the wealthy
class and the middle class-especially the wealthy class.

Other than stratification, another factor that prevented poverty from being
properly addressed was the economy and productivity at that time.

Now, economic and productivity growth seemed to be out of the question.
Therefore, they should focus on the wealthy class if they wanted to deal with
poverty. Even if it hurt their interests, they must make them shut up and
obediently accept the change.

Of course, the method to do so required further study.

"Commander, would you like something to drink?" Zander walked over and
asked.

"Then make me a cup of coffee,” Sean said flatly.

Soon, Zander brought Sean a cup of coffee.

Of course, it was only ordinary instant coffee, and Sean had never been
demanding about food and beverage.

After taking a sip of his coffee, Sean smiled and said, "Zander, how do you think
those influential families and wealthy tycoons would react when they find out
what we've done at the slum today?"

Zander pondered for a moment and said, "Maybe they'll be dismissive of it. They
might think you're putting on a show and trying to build your image in a way that
will give you more say in Dorodo's administration.”

"Haha! Yes, but maybe more intense than you think. They might think I'm a
nuisance."

Zander instantly frowned at Sean's words. He became lost in thought, trying to
figure out what Sean meant.

It was a long time before he said, "Commander, do you..."

"I just think many influential families aren't improving the city and the economy.
They are dragging them down instead. They occupy a large part of society's
wealth. But the part they occupy is stacked like objects in a villa storeroom, doing
nothing. This would be bad for a long term of development.”

Zander had pretty much figured out what Sean meant. However, he did not think
Sean would have such an idea.

He was going after the wealthy tycoons!

"Zander, I'm hosting a charity gala in three days. Help me send some invitations
to the wealthy tycoons and influential families in Dorodo..."

"Sure, no problem," Zander nodded immediately.

Suddenly reminded of something, Zander asked again, “Does this include Mayor
Quentin?"

"Of course,” Sean said immediately.

A look of shock came over Zander's face. He did not expect Sean to include
Mayor Quentin as it was probably inappropriate
