I Made Beast-taming Widespread Across The Globe

785 Beasts Are the Key to Advance! (2)

In any case, no one wanted to expand outwards anymore. What they needed to fight for was not extra living space, but more right to speak in the existing living space.

As time passed, this phenomenon became more and more serious.

Although the various factions did not show any clear trend of fighting, their relationship was not very harmonious.

However, from Mayor Gu’s behavior, it was obvious that he did not want this battle to continue.

It was a mayor who wanted to expand.

Although he must have his own selfish motives, it had been a long time since such a mayor had appeared in Central Province.

Compared to his predecessors who wanted to achieve something internally, Gu Zheng was obviously the outstanding kind.

However, could it really be possible to entrust such a huge matter that concerned the tens of millions of people in Central Province and even hundreds of millions of people in the entire Eastern Continent to a “private” dojo?

Or did Mayor Gu have some good tricks up his sleeve?

While Chen Wen was using his old but still intelligent brain to guess Gu Zheng’s thoughts, Gu Zheng directly raised his “request”.

“Dojo Master Lin, the city government still has some doubts about the construction of the dojo, so I want to find another place for you to build in my private name.”

“There’s no need for anything special. Just a normal dojo will do.”

“At the same time, I want to use some publicity methods to officially make beasts famous in Central Province. Coupled with the pictures of tamed beasts in the mutant academy competition a few months ago, they should be able to play a good role.”

“After the people accept the beasts and having tamed beasts become a general trend, the City Government will take the lead. Even if there are still objections, they will be much smaller.”

“You know, whenever something new comes up, there’s always the stubborn ones who object.”

“I think there were plenty of such things back in Jiangzhou City.”

Lin Ye nodded and agreed with Gu Zheng.

To be honest, he did not expect Gu Zheng to tell him these things “from the bottom of his heart”.

It seemed that although the other party had his own idea, he did not intend to do a job and leave in the name of his beasts. Instead, he recognized the power of tamed beasts.

Although it was not as pure as Old Su’s, it was not bad.

“Speaking of which, someone found me previously. I think they used Blackie to shoot some advertisements. There seem to be more series of advertisements after that.”

“I wonder if it’s done now. I can ask when the time comes.”

“If the effect is good, you can play it here.”

“Yes.” Gu Zheng nodded in agreement. “This is even better. We can exert strength from many aspects, but we’re afraid that some people will interfere.”

Gu Zheng openly talked about the internal strife in Central Province City.

This topic piqued Lin Ye’s interest.

Although his status was extraordinary and he had never thought of controlling anything, he was more or less interested in such gossip.

In the past, when he was in Jiangzhou City, he was not interested in these things because Jiangzhou City was too small.

No matter what trouble happened, as long as his dojo was around, he could resolve it.

Well, transcendence meant “I don’t care about things, but if I have any opinions, you can’t ignore them.”

However, if he wanted to have this status in the Central Province, he had to develop more.

After all, Central Province was different from Jiangzhou.

No matter how much Jiangzhou fought or how much internal strife there was, the impact was actually not that great.

Not to mention the few dojos.

Just one Fire Phoenix or Green Dragon was enough to stabilize the situation there.

However, it was different when the population was dozens of times higher in a city like the Central Province.

If this place became chaotic, it might even affect the entire Eastern Continent.

Moreover, it was not something that a few dojos could roughly radiate out.

Therefore, understanding the internal strife among these higher-ups was not purely gossip.

“Why? Could it be a case where someone doesn’t want tamed beasts to appear in the Central Province?”

“Yes.”

Gu Zheng turned to look in the direction of the City Government and said in an inexplicable tone.

“Some old fellows think that the appearance of tamed beasts will affect their status.”

“These people were all veterans back then. Many of them were even aggressive expansionists when they were young, but now that they’re old, their hearts have also become old.”

“They don’t want to waste manpower and resources to expand Central Province. After all, many people will die every time they do this.”

“Pensions cost money. After expansion, building walls and other buildings also cost money.”

“Moreover, it’s a thankless task. They won’t be able to obtain any direct benefits from their expansion.”

“After all, newcomers to Central Province won’t be able to fork out much money even if they have to pay taxes…”

“Not only that, there were even people who proposed to cut the number of people in the army. They even convinced a few generals with real power in the army.”

Lin Ye could actually understand everything.

But this disarmament of the army really made Lin Ye question them.

“Cutting the people in the army legions? What about the beast tides?”

Gu Zheng smiled.

“Hehe~”

“That’s because they feel that compared to the daily expenses of maintaining the army, it’s better to temporarily hire ‘soldiers’ when the beast tide comes. In addition, even if it’s a beast tide, there’s no need for so many people. The Central Province has all kinds of advanced mutant ability weapons.”

“It might not be possible to take the initiative to attack the mutated beasts outside the city, but it’s indeed more than enough to defend the city.”

“Then… actually, it’s not impossible to make this decision.”

Lin Ye did not agree with the temporary hiring method, but he had seen such a strategy of cutting manpower costs to purchase advanced weapons back when he was on Earth.

However, this method was a little short-sighted.

It only cared about the short-term future.

What if the weapons couldn’t deal with the beasts and humans were needed? How could the mercenaries hired at the last minute compare to the soldiers trained by the army day after day?

Obviously, that was impossible.

“So you’re going to object?”

“Objection?”

Gu Zheng shook his head.

“Why should I object?”

“Aren’t those soldiers that have been cut away suitable for expansion?”

“Although the City Government can’t command the army, it’s not a problem to command a mercenary team and cooperate with private mercenaries.”

“Although it’s difficult to explore the wasteland, the cost is high, and the benefits are unknown, it’s different if we have the help of beasts.”

“At the very least, the many missions that require one to go against one’s fate will no longer need human lives to be exchanged to complete them. The expenditure on pensions is less, and the cost of weapons and ammunition is much lower.”

“At this time, if the exploration succeeds, the benefits will be huge.”

“At that time, no matter how much those stuck-in-the-mud old fogs do not believe in beasts and don’t accept them, they will eventually lower their old and rotten heads in the face of benefits!”

Hearing Gu Zheng’s domineering words, Lin Ye was very satisfied.

With such a partner, why would he worry about his beasts not being able to flourish in the Central Province?

Of course, things were definitely not as simple as Gu Zheng said.

However, Lin Ye believed in one thing—one had to be strong to forge iron.

As long as he was strong enough, he could deal with all changes without changing.

This time, the guardian beast that was selected from the academy was Lin Ye’s greatest source of confidence.

Of course, this guy wasn’t strong yet.

It needed to develop for a period of time.

But it wouldn’t be long.

In any case, he had enough high-level crystal cores on him. He just had to keep feeding it.

As long as the existence of the dojo was guaranteed, the influence of the beasts would continue to spread.

It was only a matter of time before Gu Zheng’s plans were realized.

As for how long it would take, it would depend on the other party’s counterattack and the way Lin Ye and Gu Zheng dealt with it.

However, thinking about Blackie and the others’ combat power, Lin Ye was looking forward to the other party finding trouble with them.

Coincidentally, Blackie’s skin had been itching recently~

“Achoo!”

Blackie, who was sitting outside the dojo, rubbed its nose.

It looked blankly in Lin Ye’s direction.
