Chapter 109 Yun Zhongjun
Chapter 109 Yun Zhongjun
"This is all thanks to Lord 023. If it weren't for you, Fumu wouldn't be so well-behaved."
The man to the left of the man in the white coat had shoulder-width strides, his hands behind his back, and his black martial arts uniform was impeccably tailored. His voice was concise and resonant.
The man to the right of the white-coated man, dressed in a scholar's robe, possessed a more refined demeanor, unlike the man on the left who exuded a strong martial spirit. Upon hearing this, he nodded slightly, remained silent for a moment, and then asked, "When will this Cloud Lord Network be able to be deployed in my Yuntai Prefecture government office?"
The man in the white coat arrived with the God of Corruption and a group of craftsmen from the Heavenly Crafts Bureau. Upon arriving in Yuntai Prefecture, he used the transfer order in his hand to draw a large amount of national fortune energy and resources from Yuntai Prefecture's reserves.
He also ordered the Tiger Cavalry to clear out a space in the very heart of the Tiger's Den for him to imprison a fragment of the former dynasty's God of Dreams' authority.
Originally, both the Tiger Cavalry and the Yuntai Prefecture government resisted this arrangement, but since 023 possessed a token with extremely high authority and was even accompanied by two Dragon God Soldiers, they had no choice but to accept it reluctantly.
However, just when they thought that this 023 was a fool who had come down to get a degree, they didn't expect that the other party would give them a real lesson.
Even though Yunzhongjun Network is still in the experimental stage, it has improved the administrative efficiency of Huxue by at least 90%. Not to mention that tasks that require a lot of cumbersome and redundant work, such as accounting, registration, warehousing, and surveying, have been improved by more than 500%.
This greatly shocked the Tiger Cavalry and the officials of Yuntai Prefecture.
The man in black military uniform on the left, standing in a soldier's stance, is the commander of the Tiger Cavalry Regiment of Yuntai Prefecture. The man dressed as a scholar on the right is the chief secretary of the Yuntai Prefecture government office, who assists in handling most of the daily administrative affairs of Yuntai Prefecture.
"What does Chief Secretary Chang mean? The Yunzhongjun Network is still in the experimental stage and is classified. Allowing you to visit and inspect it is already a favor. How dare you try to interfere?"
Upon hearing the scholar's words, the Tiger Cavalry commander frowned and said bluntly.
"The Tiger Cavalry oversees the entire realm, and all their needs and resources are allocated and used uniformly by the Imperial Household Department. Naturally, my Yuntai Prefecture has no right to object."
However, the national fortune energy consumed by this Cloud Lord Network, the resources used for its construction, the materials used for its maintenance, and other miscellaneous expenses all come from my Cloud Terrace Mansion. If there are no results, then so be it.
Now that we've achieved results, why are you excluding my Yuntai Prefecture government office? Isn't that a bit too domineering?
As for secrets, well, Commander Liu, we've been working together for several years now. We don't need to use such vague terms between us. We'll know that the pilot program was chosen to be held in Yuntai Prefecture. There's no way to hide it from us.
Yunzhongjun Network may be a useful tool for you, but it plays a greater role for us. After all, we are responsible for people's livelihood, and we have to deal with all walks of life to carry out macro-monitoring and regulation.
"With the assistance of Yunzhongjun Network in organizing the data, the speed at which we process public and government affairs will be greatly improved."
Chang Changshi smiled.
They've been investing money and manpower these past few days, even going to great lengths to cultivate the national fortune they've worked so hard for. Of course, they can't let it go to waste; it would be foolish not to fight for the results.
Seeing that the Tiger Cavalry Commander was about to argue, 023 waved his hand, interrupting him, and said softly, "I know that the Yuntai Prefecture government is doing its job, but the Yunzhongjun network is still in the experimental stage."
I imprisoned the fragments of the corrupt dream's authority here, and locked them with the aura of the nation's destiny, just to add an extra layer of insurance, so that the resistance of the corrupt dream's consciousness would not affect a wider range of people, and even if there was a backlash, it would be borne by the prisoners held in the tiger's den prison.
However, if some of the power is stripped away, it will inevitably weaken the firewall... the role of insurance. Moreover, most people in government offices do not have enough mental strength to resist the mental impact formed by the resistance of the corrupt dream consciousness.
"My lords are all pillars of the dynasty. It would be unfortunate if they were harmed or even rendered mentally impaired by such meaningless matters."
Chang Changshi listened quietly. He did not refute what 023 said, but it was a fact that Yuntai Prefecture had contributed. They planted the trees and paid for their cultivation. When it came time to reap the rewards, it was impossible to kick them out.
He needed a clear answer today, otherwise he wouldn't be able to explain himself to the Prefect.
"Give me another month. Once I've fine-tuned the flow and stimulation power of the Dream of Corruption, I'll give you a derivative version of the Cloud Lord Network."
As for power and processing speed, how about using the essence and spirit of forty Qi Refining martial artists as the core, and one hundred and sixty martial artists at or below the Blood Gate level as support?
Having consumed so many resources from Yuntai Prefecture, even with the powerful authority to issue orders, 023 still needs to consider the attitude of the local government. Otherwise, even if they dare not do it openly, they can still use some underhanded tactics to undermine 023's work.
It was originally intended for testing, so it doesn't matter who uses it. 023 didn't intend to use this thing to blackmail anyone. Since the Yuntai Prefecture government wants to use it, let them use it. Once they taste the benefits, they might increase their investment.
Overall, it is more beneficial to his research work.
"I wonder about its power consumption and processing speed..."
Before 023 could reply, the Tiger Cavalry Commander, understanding the implied meaning, snorted coldly: "The Cloud Lord Network that my Tiger Cavalry uses now is only twice as powerful as what you mentioned, sir."
"In that case, I thank you, Lord 023. Rest assured, my Yuntai Prefecture will not lack even a single thing for Yun Zhongjun's network research."
Chang Changshi bowed deeply.
"You're too kind, Lord Chang."
Having achieved his goal, Chang Changshi knew that 023 and the other two had something to discuss, so he tactfully took his leave.
After their conversation ended, the two watched as the other was led away from the depths of Qianbo Island by a guarded tiger rider.
Before the firmly locked fragments of the Corrupted Dream God, the Tiger Rider Commander looked at 023 and asked with slight hesitation:
"One of the tasks the lord has undertaken this time is to reorganize the commerce of Yuntai Prefecture. However, Yuntai Prefecture is a port city, and the government office is the one most closely involved with the Liuyun Merchant Guild. If we hand over the Yunzhongjun Network to them now, the accounts will become even more difficult to audit."
"Difficult to investigate? Then we won't investigate."
023 fixed his gaze on the corrupted dream crystal before him and said calmly, "Do you know why I didn't place the experimental core of the Cloud Lord Network in Dragon Pool?"
"Please give your instructions, sir."
"In order not to provoke their sensitive nerves, by focusing on the Tiger Riders who are different from the internal ones, I have already subtly told them that I have no interest in their affairs."
As for the Liuyun Chamber of Commerce, I've never considered it a threat. I'm not like my classmates who need to coordinate all aspects to achieve their goals.
