The Guardian's Sword

After half a month, Yvonne's mother was finally able to get out of bed and walk.
However, her legs were still not fully healed, so it was still painful and would take
about one to two months to fully recover. After all, human bones were the
slowest-growing parts of the human body.

A recovery time of one to two months was already the best Dr. Wosh of Dorodo
First People's Hospital could do.

Sean had spent more than 800,000 Dragon Dollars to treat Yvonne's mother's
legs. However, it did not bother Sean. One was because he did not care about
the money, and the other was because he had seized a large portion of Onyx's
assets, which went to the city defense arm's treasury to be part of the city
defense army's funding.

Sean's treatment fee for Yvonne's mother could be reimbursed from there.
"Yvonne, your cooking is getting better and better!" Zander ate the food Yvonne
made as he gave her a thumbs up and praised her.

“Yvonne's cheeks reddened slightly. She lowered her head and peeked at Sean.
When Sean turned his head around, she quickly withdrew her gaze shyly.
"How's the slum doing now? Sean asked.

“Yvonne immediately replied, "The companies and factories in the slum are mostly
up and running now."

"That's wonderful... Anything else?" Sean asked with a smile.

"Anyone with limbs has jobs, and making a living is no longer a problem. Third
People's Hospital is also under overtime construction. We will probably be able to
start treating the poor in a few months."

"That's wonderful... Anything else?" Sean asked with a smile.

“Yvonne nodded and continued saying, "The mayor opened the west city gate so
that the rest of us could go out through it and work on fields outside Dorodo.
We've planted the grains and expect to harvest them in the fall. We can eat our
own harvest or sell the leftovers to Dorodo's granary. It would be a lot of money.”
The cities in the City-State Union were guarded by walls, and Dorodo was no
exception.

The walls protected the city but also hindered its development, making it difficult
for people to enter and leave the city.

Dorodo had four city gates, divided into north, south, east, and west, and kept
only the east city gate open as entrance and exit while the other three city gates
were closed.

However, Mayor Quentin had now opened the west city gate to give easy access
to the poor in the west. He also cultivated and expanded the fields in the west of
Dorodo so that Dorodo could have more food, which could also feed the poor.

It was a good policy, and it was a policy that Sean did not think of, but Quentin
thought of it and implemented it.

While Quentin had many drawbacks in managing Dorodo, he also had many
advantages.

"Your life will get better, and there will be no more poor in Dorodo in a few years,"
Sean said with a chuckle.

“Yvonne was also delighted as she replied with a loud "Okay!".

The next morning, Sean was working in the commander-in-chief's office when
Zander hurried over.

"Commander, something bad has happened!" Zander said as soon as he came
in, and he sounded anxious.

"What happened?” Sean asked.

"This morning, some slum residents in the west went out of Dorodo through the
west city gate to work in the cultivated fields, but a stray mercenary regiment...
No, a gang of stray bandits suddenly attacked and captured many of them!"
